“So Thankful for the fabulous care Rudy received! He is exhausted from all the fun he had with his new friends! I'm so glad I have such a wonderful home where Rudy can go when I am out of town. I only hope they are available in the future! I loved all the pictures of Rudy and his friends! Thanks!”
“Absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! Lorelle was so attentive to our dog Gracie and sent updates with photos daily. I have never felt so good about leaving my dog! Lorelle was excellent and I highly recommend. Feel so blessed to have found her!”
“Tara was exceptional. 5++++. We were in town visiting family (no dogs were allowed in the rental house.) Tara made pick up and drop off super quick and efficient and our pup even came home with a new toy!!! She kept me updated With videos and pictures. I felt 100% confident leaving my dog with her And will definitely use her again when we are in town.”
“Banafshe went above and beyond with George. He had some last minute medical issue which required some extra care (pills and a daily paw wash) and Banafshe was willing to attend to them and give George the extra love he needed. She is fantastic and you can tell how much she loves our 🐶!!”
“Kelleen took great care of our dog while we went on vacation. We received daily pictures and updates and our pup seemed happy and well cared for upon our return. Thank you Kelleen!”
“Claudia did a wonderful job with my dog Rosa. Rosa is very important to me. I got picture updates every day and know Rosa was being well cared for. Rosa is a high energy dog and loves to run and go for walks. Rosa was so happy to see me when I picked her up. She had such a great time. You can tell Claudia has a way with dogs and feel very comfortable leaving your dog with her. I highly recommend Claudia and will continue to use her whenever I need a dog sitter. Rosa also loved Wally.”
“My “girls” had a great time with Maria and Robert, I could tell by the pics and video they sent me. After meeting them I felt completely confident leaving my “girls” with them and would recommend them to everyone. Thanks Maria and Robert!,”
“Stephanie always takes wonderful care of Annie. All the fun photos and updates I receive while I am away make me feel at ease! They also make me feel left out of all the fun!”
“Karen (and Karl) are absolute dolls! My Pomeranian spent a week with them while I was traveling and I loved all the update pics. They also have a variety of bedding/seating options so your pet can find the most comfortable spot to rest :). Thanks for taking great care of Charleston and we will see you again soon!”
“We and our dog Cheeto absolutely love Lili. She made Cheeto feel at home while we were on vacation. We received lots of pictures and videos throughout his stay that made us feel at ease knowing he was safe and loved. We can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. After we got home, we mentioned that Cheeto was missing her, and she offered to see him again. We dropped him off for a couple of hours, and she even sent him home with a toy to make him happy. It was such a sweet gesture. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book with her again!”
“This was my first time using rover I was a little nervous but I had an amazing experience and Sondra and Kirk were so nice and accommodating when I was running late and leia had a great stay and got updated with photos throughout the day! Thank you can’t wait for leia to stay again!”
“Kelly was amazing! I'm so glad I found her - she took care of my Charlie girl perfectly. Charlie is a high-strung poodle mix that spins in circles when she's excited, but then crashes on a lap... Kelly allowed her to be her wierd little self during her stay. Thank you!!”
“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.”
“Wesley Archer enjoyed his time with Anu! She was very communicative, accommodating and sent lots of pics. He looks forward to staying with her and the family again! Thank you”
“Eric and Alli and crew are great. Moose is the sweetest dog and our fur baby seemed to fit right in with the pack. I rarely leave my baby with anyone so really appreciated all the photos and videos of the weekend walks and adventures. Thank you, Alli and Eric!”
“We have had our pup stay with Daniela and her family twice now and couldn’t be happier with the level of care and love she shows him! We love getting the daily updates and photos of the activities they do together and always feel so secure that he is in good hands. She really goes above and beyond and our pup is like our baby to us so it means a lot to know he is loved while we are away. Don’t hesitate to reach out to her!”

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!
Natalie is our go-to sitter for our dog Lily, and she’s amazing every time! She’s so good with Lily, and she absolutely loves staying at her place. She’s very easy to communicate with, and she keeps us posted with updates whenever we’re away. I would absolutely recommend her for anyone looking for an amazing sitter, and we will keep coming to her to take care of Lily!
Claudia was wonderful with our Callie. She has a lovely home with a large yard where the dogs were able to run and play. She also took them to a local dog park to play and socialize with other dogs. Callie came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely recommend her and will certainly go back to her in the future.
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!
As always, another great stay with Mariia!! She is our go to for watching our little girl when we go out of town. Love knowing that our little one is always happy, taken care of, and well-loved. When she’s with Mariia, it’s one thing we don’t have to worry about when traveling. So nice!!
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. 🐶💕
Brenda took great care of our pup, and he had a good time running around her beautiful yard with sweet Wrigley. We weren't worried at all about her ability to control him on walks, thanks to her ninja-level dog walking background .We look forward to having her host Satchmo again!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in San Juan Capistrano on Rover is $55.54 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 3,106 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across San Juan Capistrano. 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.
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.
