Diama and Cody have a wonderful yard and home and were very welcoming to my 11-year old dog. I felt totally comfortable leaving her with them, and I know she was well taken care of!

Our girl Amber is a little shy, and she had recently lost her brother, so she was a little hesitant to socialize at first. Aron did a fantastic job of making her feel comfortable so she could slowly integrate into the pack.

Nicole and Jarrod were very communicative and our pup seemed to really enjoy his stay. He is a nervous dog, but he was calm and happy when we picked him up. That tells us a lot about how well he was cared for. Will definitely book with them again!

We are glad we found Logan in town! We needed a petsitter for the weekend, and Logan was available! She was great, took them on walks, send pictures and updates! We’d definitely recommend her for anyone who is looking for a pet sitter. Thank you Logan for the great care of our pets!

Grant was very easy to communicate with and he sent pictures while we were away. It was the first time we boarded our dog so we were a little nervous, but she had a great time, and it was very easy to trust that Grant would take excellent care of her. His property is also ideal for dogs to explore, have fun, and exercise! Booking her next stay now!

Fantastic. Excellent. Wonderful! I'm still in awe of the dog sitting experience we just had with Linda and Dan. They are so very caring, kind and warm, and they cared for my pup like he was a member of their own family. Their expansive grounds are absolutely stunning and the winding paths which lead down to the pond made me feel like I was away at camp. I was ready to board myself there! ? Linda was so good in keeping me updated with photos of my pup playing and running around. He always looked like he was having a good time and it didn't surprise me when I went to pick him up and he actually didn't want to leave. Thank you, Linda and Dan, for taking such great care of my fur baby. We look forward to seeing you again hopefully one day.

It was our first time utilizing anyone to board our dog. we were pretty nervous but the very first day our dog was with her, she sent photos! I was not able to drop her off so I didn't get to go over the details but I wanted to and did not realize that my boyfriend had left several things out. That being said after multiple text messages she totally got a feeling for our dog and took it from there. While we were gone I received videos and photos and updates. When he picked her up he said he could tell she had a lot of fun. I was very impressed and would definitely recommend and re-book her for anytime we need someone to watch our dog. When we adopted her she was very skittish and Kelsey made her feel at ease and myself as well! Thank you so much!!!

Debra was wonderful. I was half was around the world & never worried about my boy. She sent lots of pictures & updates, which kept my mind at ease & allowed me to enjoy my trip. I have trouble finding people to watch my boy because Chow Chow’s have a bit of a bad reputation, even though mine is sweet as can be. She didn’t hesitate & I’m so grateful. Would use her services again & again. 🐾

A great experience for me and my dog. Alexis took great care of Hana and provided me with updates. I was very nervous trying to find a place for her. She gets overwhelmed when she's around a lot of dogs and enjoys her quiet/napping time a great deal. She even had access to her own room where she could relax undisturbed. Highly recommended.

Victoriya was amazing! She was available last minute to take care of my dog for 10 days. Because our original dog sitter fell through, I was nervous about dropping my dog off. Throughout my trip, she sent me updates and a lot of pictures. She made me feel at ease and I didn’t stress about my pup while I was gone. I will 1000% be using her again in the future!!

Deborah is a phenomenal sitter. From the moment I met her, she was kind, welcoming, and warm- I instantly trusted her. I knew that she would be wonderful to my sweet dog, Ricky! She kept me up to date on all of Ricky's adventures while I was away and it truly made my weekend to see what he was up to! Also, as a nice perk- Deborah is an excellent photographer and the pictures were just amazing! (though she is quite humble about this fact). On our way home we hit awful traffic and she was so understanding & accommodating. I'm really happy I decided to spend a little more money for truly quality pet care- plus, her home is simply beautiful, I know my dog felt comfy for sure. Thank you so much!

Very nice experience for us. This was the first time I’ve had to board my dog and I was worried about her reaction to being alone. Samantha kindly reassured me that she would be okay. There is a large fenced area for off leash play time. Blondie was taken on long walks and was bedded down in a stall in a former stable. She had a cozy bed and a heater. When we picked her up she looked happy and comfortable. We are very satisfied with Samantha’s kind care of Blondie.

FAQs for Boarding - Rough and Ready

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Rough and Ready on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 421 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rough and Ready. 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.

97% of Rough and Ready 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 Rough and Ready 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 Rough and Ready 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 Rough and Ready.

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 Rough and Ready 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.
