Johnna was amazing! She was super communicative throughout Milo’s stay, sending me regular updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind. Milo instantly felt comfortable with her, and it was clear how much care and attention she gave him. I would recommend Johnna to anyone!

Nicole took great care of our MJ. He was recovering from seizures so he was not himself. She showed him so much love and made sure he was very comfortable. Dare I say, she may have spoiled him more than we do! She was very responsive and overall just very kind. We did not worry about him at all while on vacay. I would definitely book her again!

My 9 month shepherd husky pup stayed with Lydia for the weekend. Lydia has an extremely organized setup for the dogs she cares for. She welcomed Ziggy with confidence and warmth, and sent me photo updates throughout Ziggy’s stay showing Ziggy boding with the other dogs and relaxing in her home. I already have Ziggy booked for multiple stays over the summer, and it feels great to know that she will be well cared for. I highly recommend Lydia!

My dog is elderly and mostly deaf. When we travel we have always had someone he's familiar with take care of him. This time we didn't have that option. Susan and Ervin took very good care of Riley. I appreciated the texted updates about how he was doing and the attached photos. I won't hesitate to have Riley in their care when the need arises.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I've cared for my own dogs as well as those belonging to friends, family members, and rescue organizations. I am currently volunteering as a transport driver for NorCal Boxer Rescue and Gettin' Home Transport, giving me experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. From energetic puppies to gentle giants like St. Bernards, I've worked with a wide variety of dogs and understand that each one has unique needs, routines, and temperaments. My goal is always to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home while they're in my care. I am retired after 42 years with the federal government. I spend most of my time at home with my retired husband, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. Aside from occasional errands, I’m available to ensure your dog(s) receives consistent care and affection. Our home is designed with dogs' comfort in mind. We have a large, grassy, fully fenced backyard and a dog door that allows dogs to come and go freely at their own pace. In addition, I regularly take dogs outside for potty breaks throughout their stay. Dogs are treated like family here and are welcome on the furniture and beds. We provide pet stairs to help them safely access couches and beds, making them feel as comfortable as they would in their own home. Daily walks are offered during the cooler parts of the day, typically in the early morning and again in the late afternoon or evening. Providing a safe, secure, and loving environment is my top priority. Our large, fenced backyard offers plenty of space for exercise, play, and relaxation. We also share our home with two friendly, long-haired, five-year-old Dachshunds who enjoy the company of visiting dogs. We strive to maintain a calm, welcoming atmosphere where dogs can settle in comfortably and enjoy their stay. We provide extra dog beds for guests, and if your dog prefers or requires a crate, you're welcome to bring your own. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, cuddling on the couch, relaxing in the yard, or simply being around caring people, they'll receive personalized attention and plenty of love while you're away.

I just used Alesya’s dog-sitting service for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She took care of my 5-pound, 8-month-old Chihuahua puppy for an entire week and treated her so well. Her home is clean, welcoming, and full of positive energy — the perfect environment for a little puppy. She sent me daily updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My puppy came back happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Alesya to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. I will definitely be using her services again and again!

Liv was amazing! I have a very strong, exuberant pitbull who I get very anxious about leaving for any extended amount of time. I shared my anxiety with Liv and she did such a great job of easing my anxiety and sent me plenty of photos and updates that made me feel so much better. My two cats are a lot more chill so while I wasn’t as worried about them, they obviously really liked and bonded with Liv while they were there. I would absolutely recommend Liv to anyone looking for pet sitting!

Danie was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Coco and Odyssey. Throughout our trip, she sent frequent updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When our return travel was disrupted by a typhoon in Japan, she was incredibly patient and flexible while we worked through a very complicated rebooking process. We truly appreciated her communication and understanding during a stressful situation. Most importantly, it was clear from every update that she genuinely cared about our pups and treated them like part of her family. Coco and Odyssey looked happy, relaxed, and well loved throughout their stay. We are so grateful for the care she provided and would gladly trust her with our dogs again. Highly recommended!

My first time using Rover. Mariia was timely, thoughtful, and consistent. She was very kind and hands on in meeting Oliver, it made us feel very welcome and comfortable at drop off. She sent photographs and videos everyday. This was my dogs first trip away and it was 11 nights. I was able to focus on my time away knowing he was well taken care of. I would use her services again and recommend to others. Thank you!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - North Highlands

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in North Highlands on Rover is $31.08 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 1,671 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across North Highlands. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

94% of North Highlands sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which North Highlands landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their North Highlands 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 North Highlands.

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.

You and your North Highlands 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.
