“Grisel took great care of my pup. She was very communicative & always kept me updated with pics of my girl, made me feel at ease knowing my pup was in good hands. Mila looks forward to her next visit with Grisel.”
“Our fur-child stayed with Lety for 4 nights which is the longest our sweet boy has been away from us. As always she communicates and provides updates in a timely manner throughout the day starting with breakfast time. Lety also takes amazing pics of him enjoying his walks and playtime with her dog Mason. He seems to enjoy his time whenever he goes to Lety’s. I’m grateful to have someone very caring to watch my Niko when needed.”
“Sade is great and responded to a last minute request. She was communicative, and she responses very quickly. Her home is organized and clean, and her two fur babies are adorable. Trina stayed with her for one night and was well taken care of. I would come back again, thanks Sade!”
“Doh was an excellent communicator for our first time experience with Rover. Louie was in good hands with extra playmates and she treated him like he was her own dog. I would highly recommend Doh to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Bonnie provided wonderful care for my two-year old lab mix Marcie. She made her part one of her very loving family of humans and pets for the long weekend! I had adopted Marcie only two months ago--it was the first time I left her overnight--and Bonnie made me feel very comfortable with her texts and pics of Marcie having fun. Highly recommended.”
“Erin is a very loving doggy sitter. I can go away and feel my dog is in good hands. Erin sends two updates daily along with pictures. She has 2 dogs, who my dog gets along with just fine. I highly recommend Erin”
“This was my second time booking with Martha, and she was wonderful once again. She was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up, provided regular updates, and took great care of my dog while I was away. I felt completely at ease and would definitely book with Martha again!”
About: Senior care of my Luna dog with kidney failure and five years volunteering at Front Street Animal Shelter. My dog Sugar is a foster fail. I Iprovide pet care for my two dogs on a daily basis and will provide are for the dogs I watch according to owners instructions. I want my clients dog to feel as comfortable as they do at home providing love and care. I have a fenced in yard back and front. There are no children living in my house so my home is peaceful and quiet.
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the exceptional care provided by our dog sitter, Tamara. From the very beginning, it was clear that she genuinely loves and understands animals. Our dog felt comfortable, happy, and well cared for throughout the entire time we were away, which gave us complete peace of mind. Tamara went above and beyond in every way—maintaining routines, providing regular updates, and showing incredible attention to detail. It truly felt like our dog was being cared for as part of her own family. We returned to a happy, healthy, and relaxed pet, which says everything about the quality of her service. Reliability, professionalism, and genuine compassion are rare to find all in one, but they delivered it effortlessly. We highly recommend their services to anyone looking for trustworthy and outstanding pet care. We will absolutely be using them again in the future!”
“Chelsi took such great care of Levi when we took a long weekend to go camping. She’s so attentive and sent great updates. I would recommend her to anyone looking for their doggy to have a home away from home 🫶🏽”
“Cynthia was great with Benji! She communicated well, sent pictures and updates throughout the day, and was very professional and kind. I felt confident that Benji was in good hands. I definitely recommend her and would book with her again!”
“5/5! Achara had great communication and she was amazing with my puppy! My puppy didn't even look back at me when I dropped him off 🫠 Photo updates made me feel at ease and she reassured me that he was doing well. Will definitely rebook with her when I need a sitter again!”
“Tracey is the best! I am always hesitant to leave my senior chihuahua with anyone because she can be a little difficult but Tracey put me at ease from the first meeting and upon picking my little one up after her stay, I am not sure she was even excited to see me😂I have already recommended Tracey to a friend and will be calling her again. Thank you Tracey for taking such good care of my baby💕”
“Melissa took very good care of Chewie. . Melissa sent multiple photos of chewie during her two days stay with her. Chewie looked so happy and relaxed. We are really glad that we found Melissa through Rover. We will certainly use her services again in future.”
“As a first time pet owner, sending Dubu to a boarding service was very nervous at best. My wife found Miya based on others recommendations and they are absolutely correct. From the initial meeting to introduce herself to Dubu and me to series of communications to prepare me for dropping Dubu off at her place made it easy and set up an expectation of what to expect. I could feel that Miya was very dedicated to the wellbeing of the dogs in her care. Taking Dubu out to walk 4 times in an one day stay just because Dubu wouldn’t go potty shows this. In addition to this, I’ve learned quite a bit more of what is like to raise a puppy from her experience. Experience was so great, I’ve booked next service with Miya already!”
“Laura and her family did a wonderful job with the dogs. The dogs were so happy they did not want to leave! Really appreciate the time and will be booking again when needed for any overnight needs.”
“Markita is an absolute angel. We had a last minute booking request due to an emergency and she was able to accommodate Brownie while we were away. We are so grateful for her and our dog adores her and has so much fun. Although he was happy to go home, he made sure to tell her goodbye which he has never done with anyone else. Needless to say we will be booking her again ☺️”
“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.”
“I can’t recommend Kazue enough! She takes only one dog (or one family) at a time, which is a huge plus for a dog like Butter who doesn’t do well around other pets/dogs. Kazue updated me with photos and videos at least 3 times a day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’ll definitely have her board Butter again. If you’re looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, Kazue is the one!”

Really appreciate Natalie and Chau for accomodating my request to extend my pet Churro's stay. Our flight home was cancelled and couldn't pick him up in time, and they were very supportive and guided me through the process of getting a new booking. Highly recommended.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Rio Linda on Rover is $46.62 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,670 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rio Linda. 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 Rio Linda 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 Rio Linda 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 Rio Linda 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 Rio Linda.
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 Rio Linda 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.
