“Derek, Leslie and family were great with our Standard Poodle, Curly!! We scheduled a 'meet and greet' prior to the boarding dates, since it was our first time utilizing Rover.com for dog care. It was comforting to meet Derek and see the environment where Curly would stay. Derek communicated frequently, which was very reassuring. We loved seeing photos of Curly interacting and sleeping with family on the sofa. Curly was a rescue and still experiences initial separation anxiety, but Derek and family made him feel at home and comforted him like a family member. We are grateful for Curly's care and attention. We highly recommend Derek and Leslie and will rebook Curly again when needed.”

“Ariana was great, confident in handling plenty of pets, and really knows what she's doing. Our puppy unexpectedly went into heat, and Ariana graciously took it in stride and worked diaper duty for the week. The daily communication and pictures was great, and our pup always had her cute smile in the pics! Thanks Ariana!”

He also made sure to give her her meds on time and took care of her hygiene. Totally recommend him for your pet, he's very knowledgeable and resourceful sitter! We would definitely love to have him petsit our dog next time we need a sitter. :)”

“Erin and Devin took such amazing care of our dog, Kody, while we were away. Kody is usually pretty anxious, so we’re always a bit nervous leaving him—but he absolutely loved being with them. It was clear from the updates that he felt comfortable, happy, and right at home. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation stress-free, which means everything. We’re so grateful to have found Erin and Devin and wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Kody again. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi, we are Matt and Carolyn. We just lost our sweet pitty Bella after 12 great years. We are looking to pet sit your fur babies and fill our hearts up with dog love. We work opposite shift so dogs are only home alone a few hours if during the week. Weekends we would be home the full time and able to take them to the near by park or trails. We do have a kennel available. We also have a fenced yard with a back door close to our kitchen and living room. Our front door opens up to the side of a house rather than out to the street. We also live in a gated community. So your pet is extra safe.

“Our boy Shida really liked his stay he had plenty of new doggie friends to play with. We were so relieved that we found a place to take care of our boy. When we came home he was so glad to see us but when he got home he was out like a light. I know he had a great time because he slept for a full day he was so tired from running with his new doggie friends he met. Thank you so much for watching our boy”

“My dog Odin stayed with Kevin and his super friendly Golden Retriever named Hoagie for 2 nights. Odin had such a blast I was thinking he probably would want to stay there permanently! Booking with Kevin was easy, he is attentive, friendly, and I felt that he took outstanding care of my dog throughout his entire stay with him! Kevin’s property is great for dogs and is securely fenced and even on a gated street! I received regular updates with pictures and videos on my dog when they went to play and on plenty of outdoor adventures with him! Odin was truly the happiest dog playing continuously with Hoagie. Kevin was the perfect Rover Host… Professional, caring, and communicative. I would highly recommend booking a stay with him! Thank you again!”

I found Victoria on Rover and she took Buddy in and treated him like family. She kept in touch sending many pictures and was very accommodating about letting us pick him up to visit my dad. I could tell Buddy loved his time there. She will be my first call for any future pet care we may need!”

Our dog, Lucy, loves going to stay with Leslie and Derek. She just completed a 12-day visit and we received plenty of pictures and updates. She made friends, canine and human, and was very happy and well cared for when we picked her up. Overall, we are very comfortable leaving Lucy here and will do so again.

Inger watched our girl Maple while we were away getting married, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for her! We were a little nervous about trusting someone with Maple during such an important weekend, but from the moment we met Inger, she made us feel completely comfortable. She was so warm and welcoming, and we immediately knew Maple was going to feel right at home with her. We especially appreciated the undivided attention and love she gave Maple, as well as the sweet pictures she sent us while we were away. Inger was also incredibly thoughtful about knowing we were busy with our wedding and didn’t want to overwhelm us with updates. She made sure to get an emergency contact ahead of time just in case she needed anything, which gave us even more peace of mind. We will definitely book again in the future!

Marian did an amazing job caring for my dog Charlotte for five nights in my home. She was professional and respectful throughout. Although it was my first time meeting someone through the Rover website, upon meeting her, she had my full trust. Charlotte is a very active dog and can be a handful. Marian took her to the dog park every day and kept her busy with play time in the evening. She communicated with me regularly and sent photos so I didn't have to worry. I am sure Charlotte missed us, but we came home to a happy dog. I feel lucky to have found a person to help us care for Charlotte who is as kind and knowledgeable as Marian. I hope to have her dog sit for me again in the future.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Nimbus

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Nimbus is $33 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $44 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,684 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Nimbus. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

95% of sitters in Nimbus can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Nimbus home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Nimbus.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Nimbus. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

You and your Nimbus sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
