“Barbara watched my puppy while I was away for a night and I was nervous since my pup had never stayed with anyone else before but she had a great time with Barbara! She kept me updated with texts and photos during Kaia’s stay. She also let Kaia sleep in her room which I really appreciate. Kaia was in good spirits when I picked her up. I will definitely use her again.”

“I’d give more than 5 stars if that was a choice! Ashley was so nice and my puppy Leah fell in love with her! She sent me photos often and updated me on how Leah was doing. This was our first time apart and I felt like my baby girl was in such good and safe hands! Leah didn’t want to leave when it was time to pick her up, that’s how much she loved spending time with Ashley. I will be booking Ashley again. Reliable and amazing!”
“Daniela is great with Ari. We had our dog board at Daniela's and she took great care of her. She sent me pictures and updated me frequently. Ari loves being at Daniela's.”
“I had an amazing experience with Jourdyn! From the very beginning, she had great communication, maintained professionalism, and it was wonderful to see that I found a sitter who truly cared about my pup Leo. Jourdyn sent pictures and gave updates throughout the day, and I really enjoyed the videos of her spending quality time with Leo. I can’t say enough great things. I highly recommend her and I hope to work with her again in the near future. Thank you Jourdyn! - Shar and Leo”

“First time ever using a pet sitter, Was very pleased w/the care our 7 month old “big” high energy pup received. Lots of photos/videos were shared and response was quick. Friendly environment!”
“Lindsay was so great with my anxious pup. She was very responsive and sent me lots of updates. She made my dog feel at home right away, I wasn’t worried about him for one second! And her dogs are so cute and friendly - my dog had so much fun playing with them! Will definitely use her again.”

“Isael was so awesome! He was extremely calm with our rambunctious aussiedoodle, took her on runs daily, and sent so many pictures. She came home happy and exhausted. He was also super flexible with timing, which was very appreciated.”
About: For years, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their pups. I'm home most of the day and only take in one to two small dogs at a time, so your fur baby will get plenty of love and attention. You can count on me to treat them like family! 🐾 I focus on quality not quantity, and make sure your pup feels like they are visiting family when they are with me. A home away from home. I also pick up and drop off. 🐾🤗 I'm home most of the day and only take in one to two small dogs at a time, so your pup will get plenty of love and attention.

Daily walks, plenty of love, and attentive care are all part of the package. Your dog’s routine is my priority, and their happiness is my goal!
“We used Samantha K. while visiting from out of town for a wedding, and we could not have been happier! It is always stressful leaving your pup in an unfamiliar city, but Samantha K gave us total peace of mind. We received regular updates and photos, which allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the wedding celebrations knowing our dog was in great hands. They were incredibly professional, flexible with our shifting schedule, and truly loved our dog like their own. We highly recommend Samantha K to anyone—local or traveling!"”
“Danielle was fantastic with my very anxious and finicky chihuahua. Even when my dog refused to take her pills in the way that she usually does, Danielle went above and beyond and tried different ways to get my dog to take her pills, and she did!! Danielle’s own dog was very welcoming to my dog and they got along well together (and looked very cute together in pictures)!! I would feel very comfortable having her watch my dog again!”
“Brittany is AMAZING! She took the time to work with our nervous guy while he stayed with her over the weekend. We can’t thank her enough and Monroe can’t wait to come back!”
“Lindsay is amazing! She sent me regular updates and was very easy to communicate with. My dog Piper had so much fun during her stay, and Lindsay shared a bunch of photos along the way. She will be my first call next time we need a dog sitter!”
“Eileen was an amazing sitter and was so accommodating for our last minute travel pivots. She and Anthony took great care of Astrid and we had so much peace of mind the entire time knowing our dog was in good hands. Thanks Eileen!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverside
Frederic and Daniela were fantastic! We got multiple pictures a day letting us know how the pups were doing, and they were happy every time! They were so caring, catching onto their personalities with their likes/dislikes and telling us stories through their day of what they were up to. Will definitely be knocking on Frederic's door again!
We were blown away by Katherine’s care of our girls! She took such good care of them and we felt very at peace leaving our cat and dog with her. She sent pictures 3 times a day with a little update and was super responsive the entire time. She asked all the right questions and if we lived in town we would definitely use her as our go to sitter! If you’re nervous about hiring a pet sitter, hire Katherine!
I was out of town for a weekend and needed someone for dog boarding, so of course I went to Wendy! She was great with my dog and followed the care instructions I gave her. She provided updates throughout the day, was flexible with drop off/pick up time, and made things easy for me by dropping off my dog at my home. Wendy is great!
Jessica was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our cats, kept us updated with photos and messages, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our cats were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Ashley was awesome with Spence! She watched him overnight and took such great care of him. The photo updates she sent were the best and totally put our minds at ease while we were away. It was so nice to see him looking relaxed and completely at home with her. Everything went so smoothly from drop-off to pick-up. We’ll definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone!
Stefanie was amazing - kind, patient and understanding with our anxious pup's first boarding experience ever, and a great communicator. She and her human and four legged family members welcomed our pup with open arms and helped put our mind at ease that our pup was in great hands. Would definitely recommend and we'd definitely book with her again!!
Sarah was super friendly and available on short notice, which we really appreciated. We recently moved to the U.S., so our dog is still adjusting to all the new surroundings and changes. Sarah kept me updated and let me know that he was quite restless, and she really tried to understand him and respond to his needs. I’m grateful for her patience and care!

The average cost of Pet Boarding in Riverside is $89 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $83 and $107 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 9,686 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Riverside. About 88% of Riverside sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 CT ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
