âErica and Ronald were amazing with our dogs. It was obvious our dogs enjoyed their stay and had fun with them. We got lots of pictures and updates from them. We definitely recommend them and would leave our dogs there again, thanks so much!â

âAnasteysha was fantastic from the get-go: quick replies, communicative, accommodating, and took incredible care of our two pups! We would absolutely rebook with her whenever we need a sitter. Thank you Anasteysha!â
âOur family was in a bind with nowhere else to go, but Nazgul truly was an angel and an answered prayer. We had a graduation ceremony for two of our daughters just down the way at Pechanga but we also had a puppy who'd had an unplanned surgery the day prior. Nazgul helped accommodate our last minute requests with top notch service so that we could enjoy this momentous occasion, free of any concern about the wellbeing of our puppy. Nazgul provided updates throughout his stay and was extremely flexible from beginning to end. It was our first experience with Rover and it far exceeded any of our expectations. Wow. Thank you so much Nazgul. đĽšâ


âAngie was located in a great neighborhood. we felt really comfortable leaving our dogs with Angie. she had a very spacious backyard to include a dog of her own. she was very caring and accommodating while we left our dogs with her for six days and five nights she would send pictures daily as updates. our dogs had no issues when we picked them up. we will definitely hire Angie again. we highly recommend Angie to anyone in the Escondido area.â

âAndrew was wonderful and communicative! He took amazing care of our boys and kept us up to date a lot. This was extremely helpful as one of our dogs is high maintenance and requires medication.â

âSana and her family were amazing with Alfie and he had a great time. He was well cared for and we got photo updates throughout the stay. Thank you so much and would definitely have Alfie with her again!â

About: My family and I always owned/cared for pets while I was growing up. I personally raised my 10 year old half whippet/half pitbull from a puppy. Iâve always been happy to help out friends, family members, neighbors and roommates with pet care. I have professional experience at a doggy daycare/boarding facility. Iâve always had a passion for animals and stand firmly on animal rights. I want to provide a safe/trustworthy place for your pet. SKILLS: familiar dogs who have separation anxiety, oral medication, picky eaters, potty training, knowledge of dog behaviors & familiar with different breeds of dogs My dog Lily & I are living the dream farm life. We have 3 dogs, 3 horses and a couple of chickens! Monday through Friday I leave for a few hours to my nanny job but Iâm typically at home otherwise. I am very respectful and trust worthy as I have lots of experience with nannying & pet sitting in guests homes. I have great ratings and reviews from all my previous clients. I have multiple repeat clients as well. I give continuous updates and photos throughout their stay.
âLinda & Zach are the best! I needed a last-minute booking while traveling in from out of town, and they made super easy. I appreciated their very fast, friendly communication throughout Chunkâs stay. They were very flexible with our schedule, and most importantly took great care of our senior pup, Chunk. They introduced their sweet lab Sophie who was the perfect companion for Chunk, and sent pictures during his stay so we knew he was right at home. Everything was packed and ready to go when we came for pickup. Couldnât ask for better!â

âErica took great care of our 9 year old golden retriever. She was quick to respond to any questions and sent several pictures to show how well our dog was doing. Erica definitely treated our dog as if she were her own. Thank you, Erica!â

âOur pup who is often overly shy with new dogsitters easily adjusted to Cori and Chris (her quickest transition so far as she was snoring on the couch within the first hour). They are both so welcoming, patient, and kindâ we already have our second stay booked. Sophie gives her first stay two paws up!â

âFaith was incredible with Bella! Her communication was excellent. She went above and beyond, even buying Bella some greenies because I had run out. I could tell by the photos that Bella had a great time and got lots of cuddles. We will absolutely book with Faith again. Thank you!â

âChris was wonderful. He welcomed Sprout right into his home and made her comfortable. He was great at communicating with me. I will definitely be bringing her to Chris again !!!â

âAt first, I was hesitant because Iâve never left our fur baby with a petsitter before but my worries were put to rest. David is absolutely wonderful! He gives updates,very detailed in asking about Rockyâs routines. Heâs highly recommended and weâll definitely use his services again.â


âAna and Mark took great care of Cooper. From the initial communication and meet-and-greet to his overnight stay, Ana was organized, professional, and kind. She made sure she fully understood any special needs, dietary requirements, and other details about Cooperâs care. They also only accept one dog at a time which was important to us. Our little guy is almost 15 and has only stayed with a few people outside of family during that time, so we were understandably nervous. Ana and Mark quickly put us at ease with thoughtful updates and photos, reassuring us that Cooper was comfortable, happy, and in great hands. They also have a clean, peaceful home in a very safe neighborhood, which gave us even more peace of mind. Thank you both so much! We will absolutely use your services again in the future and highly recommend to other pet owners!â

âI was super appreciative of Justin taking my last minute boarding request. He was communicative and sent me pictures during the 2 nights he had Zuly. I would absolutely book again. Thank you Justin and Michelle for being so good to Zuly and so accommodating.â

âWe are so happy to have found Taryne! Her kindness and flexibility meant a lot. We really appreciated the updates she gave us and we knew Minnie was in great hands. She really treated our sweet girl as her own, which was very comforting to us. We are happy to know we have someone local and kind to look after Minnie in the future :)â

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 dogâs regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Pauma Valley can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dogâs 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 dogâs 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 Pauma Valley 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 Pauma Valley.
Tip: You can upload your dogâs routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

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.

You and your Pauma Valley sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of youâand 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.

The Rover Guarantee is Roverâs 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 Justiceâs 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 dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs 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, youâre 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. Youâll 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.
