“Erica was amazing! My dog is afraid of strangers and he was having a blast at her place on the first day. I was worried he wouldn't want to come home he had such a good time. She sent me pictures every day and kept me updated on what he was doing. I'll definitely come back, I was never worried about Wilson the whole time.”
“Kathryn and Matt were amazing. They have 2 other dogs that Gumbo was able to play with and the property was safe for him to have a good time.. They gave regular updates on how he was doing, walked him around the neighborhood and even snuggled him on the couch when he sat next to them. They were excellent caretakers.”
“Sierra took great care of my babies. One of my pups had a cut on his paw and she treated it as asked and had him wearing his cone (even though he hated it). When we picked them up they were happy. We were nervous because our pups can have a hard time adjusting to new places but Sierra let us know they did take some time but eventually settled and got comfortable. She also sent pictures/updates which I loved 😊”
“Amazing!! They watched my two dogs on short notice and were absolutely amazing! They made me feel so comfortable at drop-off and reassured me that my dogs were in great hands. They sent photos and videos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. They were also incredibly patient and accommodating when we ran a little late for pickup and needed to extend their stay by an hour. I would definitely recommend them and would happily book with them again!”
“Erica was amazing with my pups! We received pics and updates throughout their stay. My pups were well taken care of and comfy with Erica and her family. Thank you for taking care of my dogs on short notice too ❤️❤️❤️”
“We were so happy that Holly was able to stay with Angie and her lovely family while we were gone for 5 days. We are picky when it comes to finding the right place for Holly and we lucked out again. I felt like Angie showed as much love and excitement as we do and let Holly have all the same comforts of home, like letting her up on the bed with her son and even got a Thanksgiving dinner treat. Angie has a large yard for big dogs to move around and let her swim in her pool which Holly loves. Boo Radley may be large but he's the sweetest dog around and Holly enjoyed the company. Angie was also very understanding and accommodating with our schedule, which kept changing, and we appreciated that.”
“Alicia and Christian are the perfect couple to watch our boy Tanner. They provided him with the best care routine as he needed and communicated with us everyday at a level that was very comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better duo to care for Tanner in his senior years so we will definitely book with them again if available. We highly recommend them! Thanks so much Alicia and Christian! Happy New Year!”
“Andrew 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.”
“Excellent service and communication. I booked less that 24 hour prior and Priscilla was available and relieved our stress. We will definitely work with her again! Thank you”
“Carrie did a fantastic job taking care of our two dogs while we were out of town. She sent pictures every day while we were gone and even gave us a photo and a nice note about our animals. We will definitely use her again!”
“Our dog stayed with Kayla and her family while we were on vacation and she took such great care of her! Our dog got lots of attention and cuddles, which she loved, and we got lots of updates and pictures, which we appreciated. Highly recommend Kayla for your pet sitting needs!”
“We dropped off our Great Dane "puppy", Hercules, with Danielle for a weekend of boarding. Danielle was extremely accomodating with our drop off and pick up times. Hercules had a blast and Danielle sent countless pictures of him to keep us updated. We (and Hercules) cannot wait to drop him off at Danielle's for our next trip. Thank you!”
“Faith 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!”
“Sean & family (including their dog Zorian) were just wonderful dog sitters! This was a repeat booking with him and I certainly plan to use him again in the future. They welcomed my dog into their family and took great care of him!”
“We LOVE Savannah! Our dogs had a great time with her and they even had a friend to play with. She sent us photos and let us know each day how our puppies were doing. I was so nervous since one of our dogs was a rescue and is very timid and doesn’t do well with new surroundings but Savannah took her in as one of her own and made sure she felt right at home. Will definitely be bringing the puppies back to her if we ever need a dog sitter again.”
“Corinne and Christopher are great Rover sitters. They were very responsive to messages and most importantly took great care of my girl Busaba. I felt like she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
“Dana took care of our yellow lab for us while we were on a long vacation. Our dog had never been with a boarder before, but she did great thanks to Dana. An excellent facility and all around experience. We will be back!”
“Audra and Mike did a great job taking care of Bella! We received daily updates and pictures, which we really appreciate. We felt very comfortable trusting our fur baby with Audra and Mark!”
“I am so happy that I found Taryne! She took such great care of my boy Rocco 😊 He got extra cuddles and lots of love durning his sleepover with her family. I’m really thankful to have found somebody who made sure my dogs felt right at home while we are away! Rocco came back home looking fantastic and he smelled so good too! It was clear to me that he was loved and cared for a while she was with them! I will definitely be using Taryne as a sitter on any future trips we might have 🐾 She also made sure to send me pictures every day of Rocco and she would walk and run him as well! Great communication and follow the directions with his food schedule too :)”

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Pauma Valley is $52 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $40 and $109 per night.

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.
96% of sitters in Pauma Valley 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 Pauma Valley home-away-from-home, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Pauma Valley 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 , 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 .
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.
