“Lauren and her family are nothing short of fantastic. They watched our 14 year old pupper, Duke, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. This was our first time using a pet sitter, so we were a bit nervous- but Lauren and her family made it such a positive, comforting experience. Lauren was incredibly communicative throughout the planning, and even during Duke's stay. Her family has a genuine love for animals- I can't even begin to overstate it. One of the sweetest moments? I came to pick Duke up from his sleepover and, as we were walking out the door, Duke actually walked back in just to say goodbye to the kids. That's how we knew he felt safe and happy there. We already have plans for Duke to have future sleepovers with Lauren and her family. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and attentive pet sitter. She and her family are absolute gems.”
“Katie was so wonderful! My dog came home relaxed and tired from all the fun. I can tell she was properly cared for and given a lot of attention and exercise. I was so grateful for Katie’s kindness and understanding of my special, quirky dog.”
“We had a great experience with boarding our dog, Maggie, with Tara and her family! Tara took excellent care of our dog. Maggie went on walks everyday and we also received daily updates & photos of her. We are very happy & appreciative to have found a reliable, communicative & kind dog sitter for our golden retriever and would highly recommend Tara & her family for your pet. Donna & Peter”
“Miki was great! I would highly recommend her. I really like that she boarded my dog only, as she has two small dogs of her own. Miki gave me daily updates on how Annie was doing and sent me lots of pictures and videos through the Rover app. I would definitely use her again. Her two young daughters and husband were very sweet too! They took really good care of my precious girl.”
“Sunny was treated like an extension of Alicia’s family and was so well-loved while we were away. It was so reassuring knowing he was in a loving home and it was like he had his own vacation while we were away. Great family and perfect yard for a dog - highly recommend!”
“This was Josie's first stay with Doug, and she seemed to enjoy the experience. She had room to roam in his large backyard and to chill out in her favorite spot in the livingroom. She slept well in her crate at night, always a good sign of contentment. She plans to return for a second, longer visit soon.”
“Adrienne is a wonderful human being. She is also a responsible, caring, affectionate and communicative sitter. I highly recommend her if you want peace of mind! We had a great experience with her caring for our fur baby. She took him on walks and even to the beach.”
“Sheridan was such a wonderful sitter. She took my dog on adventures, spoiled her with love, and kept me in the loop the whole time. I would recommend her to anyone and I will be booking with her again in the future!!!”
“Happily did a facetime call with us before we booked, which made us feel very comfortable. Flexible dropoff/pickup timing. Sent us a few pictures during our dog's stay, and gave us helpful feedback on how our dog interacted with others in her house. Thanks Niccola!”
“We sooo appreciated Tami keeping our small dog for us while we attended a wedding. She was so accommodating and let us drop off/ pick up at times that worked for us. We loved that our dog was able to play with hers and have a fun time- it took so much worry off our shoulders! She truly treated him like family and I can tell that doggies are her joy and passion. I also loved the picture updates she sent throughout the visit!”
About: Available for dog walking and babysitting! I don’t have any pets myself so okay with dogs/cats that don’t like or can’t be around other animals 👍🏻 Available in Grover Beach for walking, boarding, house check ins, any pet related needs! I set my own work schedule, don’t tend to be away from home for more then a couple hours at a time, and I live with my grandmother who loves to sit and talk animals so they’ll get plenty of love and attention! I live in condo near a dog park, No children or pets live in the house, no toxic houseplants or choking hazards. Can board overnight
“Heidi, Phil, and their daughter were very responsive and made sure to update us with the cutest pictures. We could tell from our first video meeting that they really love animals and strive to provide a safe and comfortable environment that meets all your pet’s needs. Highly recommend and will be our new go to boarding/daycare when we’re in town!”
“Monique is awesome taking care of my Dog. She is very flexible about the timing and she sends picture update every hour. I will definitely leave my dog again with Monique.”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing while babysitting my dog, Cooper, during my time away. She went above and beyond to give me constant updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she treated Cooper just as I would at home—he looked so happy, comfortable, and well cared for in every update. I am eternally grateful for her kindness, attentiveness, and dedication. I would wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!”
“Kambry was very responsive and was able to watch for our dog Goose on short notice for the evening. Goose can be uneasy and reactive, but Kambry was able to handle everything super well with care and understanding. She is definitely an experienced sitter and I recommend her to anyone searching in the SLO area!”

Lauren and her family were absolutely wonderful with Cooper! They were so friendly and sweet with my boy, followed all of his care instructions, and made sure he got plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. I could tell from how happy and relaxed Cooper was that he had a great time. I’m so grateful to have found such a kind and caring family to look after him. I would absolutely rebook them!
Matt and his pup Dewey were great! This was Oakley’s first boarding experience and Matt made sure to make her feel at home and us feel at ease leaving her. It’s clear he’s a great pet Dad! Oakley had so much fun being able to run around the yard and play with Dewey. We’d definitely use Matt in the future.
I had a wonderful experience with Alexandria! She took such great care of my dog and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She was responsible, communicative, and genuinely cared about making my girl comfortable and happy. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter — I’d happily book with her again!
Paul was awesome! Highly recommend! Huey is a blue heeler and we worry about him causing chaos when he stays with people, but after meeting Paul I felt comfortable with his ability to “handle” the chaos of a heeler. Huey led Paul into the house and didn’t look back to say bye so I know he felt comfortable there as well. We got updates and pictures throughout his stay which was great. When we’re back in the area, we will definitely book with Paul again. Thanks Paul!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Pismo Beach on Rover is $64.2 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 203 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Pismo Beach. 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 Pismo Beach 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 Pismo Beach 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 Pismo Beach 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 Pismo Beach.
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 Pismo Beach 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.
