“I I had a last minute meeting that I had to go out of town for and Tara responded immediately. When I met her and her darling little Shih Tzu I felt immediately at ease. She sent me pictures throughout the day and communicated that Luna was doing great would absolutely recommend leaving your precious pup with Tara.”
“We had a wonderful experience! Connor was very responsive, communicative, and professional from start to finish. Most importantly, he took excellent care of Tucker, ensuring he was comfortable, happy, and well looked after while we were away. We highly recommend his services and would gladly book with him again.”

She and her family were so attentive, loving, and patient with him. I really appreciated the daily photo updates, they always gave me peace of mind and made me smile. I highly recommend Bani to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Cash can’t wait to visit again!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes, cats, horses, and goats. My first job was at a pet shelter and later on as a veterinary assistant technician. I love taking dogs on long walks and runs. I’m experienced at handling dogs of all sizes and great at reading animal behavior. I have two senior dogs. I work full time but have time during the evenings and weekend to take care of your pet. I have time for drop-ins, walks, and pet sitting. I have a fenced yard and two small old senior dogs who are dog friendly. Even though I have a fenced yard, I think it’s important to walk dogs several times a day to stimulate them.
“Priscilla and Allen are amazing. I recently moved to Cali and don’t have anyone to watch my dog. I am so glad I met these two and my dog Jacks loves them too. Plenty of pictures and updates. Great feeling knowing my dog is in good hands.”
“Claudia was amazing with our dog, Marleau! She even took him on a hike, which he absolutely loved since he has so much energy. She was in constant communication and sent photos throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I also really appreciated how attentive she was to details, especially making sure he got his allergy medication. Marleau came home happy and well cared for. We will definitely be using Claudia again!”
“I loved all of the picture updates so I know Rocky was well taken care of. Rocky had the best time with the other dogs and was so loved by Ceinya. I would trust her to watch Rocky again. So glad I found her.”
“Once again, Erich and Allison come to our rescue and hosted our dog Oreo over the Christmas break. Oreo had a wonderful time and we couldn’t ask for better hosts. If you need someone to sit in your dog, look no further! Thank you again!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received from this wonderful couple. They truly went above and beyond—taking him on long walks every day and treating him like one of their own. Our pup came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. They also shared lots of photos throughout, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitters!”
About: Apart from always caring for my own dogs, I have loved walking my old neighbors pups as well. I am average build but strong for my size so I can handle the tugs from the bigger dogs like husky’s. I have an almost 3 month old who I stay home with so I am available for around the clock care for pups, children, or any elders who need assistance. Me and my baby would love to have your fur baby join our walks and play time! When boarding at my home, all we ask is to please bring your pup washed, thank you! p.s. tips are never expected but alwaysss appreciated;) I am a stay at home mom to a very chill and quiet baby. Our days consist of his nap times, sitting on our enclosed balcony, and going on long walks. We live in a condo with a balcony that has no escape route, and a medium size patio/backyard. It does not have grass but we have a 47x32in. artificial grass mat for potty breaks. The condo has stairs as well.
The median cost per night for dog boarding in San Juan Capistrano is $63
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - San Juan Capistrano
I can’t say enough wonderful things about my experience with Vlad & Dorothy! Dolly absolutely fell in love and got so attached, which says everything because I’m very particular about who I trust with her. They were incredibly kind, sweet, attentive, and accommodating from start to finish. Seeing how happy and comfortable she was, made the whole experience so easy for me. I would absolutely trust them with her again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone truly caring and dependable!
Natalie is our go to sitter for our dog Lily! She’s always amazing! Lily scratched her eye a few days before our trip, so she was unexpectedly in a cone and needed eye drops every day. Natalie was such a rockstar and took the best care of her, even with the extra work required! I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!
Thank you Lindsay for taking such good care of Maya on her first staycation with you! Seeing all of the great pictures and videos of her playing and having a great time, I was not sure she would want to come home. It definitely put my mind at ease knowing she was in such loving hands. Highly recommend Lindsay!
Neil took great care of our dog, Ted while we were away. He was friendly, welcoming, and very communicative throughout the stay. We appreciated the updates and could tell Ted was well cared for and comfortable. We would happily book with Neil again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
James did a great job with my dog Stella while I had family in town. Stella had so much fun with James and Brody that she was always excited to see them again. He was flexible with all the last minute plans and kept me up to date with the fun they were having through the day. I always returned home to a happy and tired puppy, which was awesome!
Super flexible and attentive… took Conan on several long walks with their dog Maverick, with whom Conan got along very well and had a weekend full of playing. Patient with Conan adapting to their environment and to their dog and very communicative… kept me posted about Conan and sent many photos. Thank you so much!
This was our first time ever using Rover, and I was honestly a little nervous leaving our 11-month-old mini Bernedoodle, Leo. Eric and Allison were absolutely incredible from start to finish. They sent pictures and updates every single day, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Leo was not just being cared for — he was part of their family while we were away. He had the best time playing with Moose and his dog buddies, and he definitely misses the kiddos too! We came home to a happy, well-loved pup, and that means everything. We will 100% use Eric and Allison again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving sitters. 🐶💕

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.
95% of San Juan Capistrano 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 San Juan Capistrano 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 San Juan Capistrano 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 San Juan Capistrano.
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 San Juan Capistrano 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.
