“Once again, Cody enjoyed his stay. Thanks for taking such good care of him! Wenxin and Cham sent regular updates and made sure our dog felt at home. Appreciate that they take him to the dog park and give him lots of treats and cuddles.”
“Thank you very much Julie and Adam for Mollie's wonderful "Spring Break." We knew she's in good hands as we dropped her off. We really appreciate your daily updates with pictures of Mollie. You are the best!”
“My dog Zazu had a great time with Ashish! Great communication and lots of pictures of my dog having fun. Would definitely recommend Ashish and will continue to bring my pets in the future!”
“Ana G and her love & care for our fur baby was exceptional ❤️ I will definitely refer her and keep her for our dog coverage care, not to mention, as much as she hated to see our pup go. I think pup didn't want to leave. She a real 5 star 🌟”
“We are SO grateful we found Luna! Our usual dog care fell through right before a long out-of-state trip, and we were genuinely considering postponing because our senior dog, Indi, has recently been diagnosed with IBD and needs a specialized diet, daily meds, and a calm, attentive environment. She can get stressed easily in new places, which has previously led to tummy issues and even skin flare-ups — so we were very nervous about leaving her with someone new. From the very first message, Luna was incredibly warm, proactive, and thoughtful. She even offered to set up a meet-and-greet right away before we could ask, which immediately put us at ease. Once we dropped Indi off, it was clear Luna treats animals like family. Her own dog, Jim, also has IBD, so she had first-hand experience and comfort caring for a pup with similar needs. Throughout the two weeks, Luna provided detailed updates every single day — including meals, meds, walks, and yes, digestion reports (very appreciated 😂). She took so many adorable photos and videos that we could see how happy and relaxed Indi was. Our dog walker also commented on how noticeably happier and healthier Indi seemed while staying at Luna’s — her stools even improved (a true win for IBD dog parents!). Communication was flawless, kind, and reassuring the whole time. We felt completely at ease, which is priceless. We would absolutely book with Luna again and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a sitter who is caring, attentive, and truly exceptional. Indi came home happy, calm, and healthy — we couldn’t ask for more. 💛🐾”
“We enjoyed meeting this sweet family. Our dog seemed well adjusted at their home and was happy to see us when we got back. They were careful to stick to our dog’s diet (allergy) and provided plenty of exercise & opportunities for play. Nathaniel sent photos & updates while we were away. We would schedule with them again.”
“Kiarash did an incredible job of taking care of my dog. He was easy to communicate with and he sent regular notes, photos, and videos of Frygg. It’s possible that my dog had a better vacation than I did!! I would recommend him wholeheartedly.”
“Yesica was phenomenal with our 3 year old Bernedoodle. She was attentive, responsible, caring and overall gave so much love to our little pup. When I dropped off our dog, she instantly felt connected to Yesica and comfortable in her home. Yesica also did a great job keeping us posted on how our pup was doing. With texts and photos, we never had a doubt that our dog was well cared for. I will definitely be booking with Yesica again!”
“We are so happy to found Radha. She is the first person we think of if we have to go out of town or even board for a few hours because we know our dog will have the best time and she will take great care of him.”
“Deborah is amazing!!! We are so happy we found her. She is so responsive and send so many updates daily! My dog loves being at home and also maintains our regular routine with our dog. We feel very confident with her care and will book her everytime we need a dog sitter. Thank you again Deborah!”
“Michael was flexible with drop off and pickup times and was very communicative throughout the process. He sent daily status updates and photos of our pup, so we could rest assured that she was being well-cared for. He took our pup on multiple walks per day along with his dog, and made sure she had plenty of outside time. He made us feel comfortable that our pup was in good hands.”
“Hope was recommended to us by another great Rover sitter, and we are really grateful. Hope is so friendly and knowledgeable about dogs and their behavior. She made Coconut comfortable immediately. Her little dog Rocky is adorable and super friendly. Coconut loved going for walks and playing with Rocky's toys. Hope was great with sending text updates as well as photos and videos. Here's hoping Hope doesn't get too busy to have room for Coconut the next time we need her!”
“We love Kaja! She has dog sat in our house before...but this time we brought our dog, Lola, to her to be boarded. Our sweet Lola was so happy!! Lola was instantly comfortable and part of the family. We received photos and updates. So nice to know our doggy was in excellent hands while we were away. Will definitely book with Kaja again!”
“Louis watched our dog for multiple days over Thanksgiving week, and was absolutely amazing. He gave super prompt communication and is very knowledgeable. We felt at ease during our trip knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend Louis if you are in need of a great dog sitter!”
“What a wonderful and caring boarding experience! I could tell that she truly cared for my dog and shared many sweet anecdotes during my pet’s stay at her house. I know she was in good and loving hands. I will definitely use this sitter again if needed!”

Ashish took excellent care of my 6-year-old dog. He sent many photos and communicated with me about my dog’s initial separation anxiety, finding ways to engage with her and make her feel at home in a new setting. I appreciate the care, exercise, and attention he provided her that put my mind at ease. Great to have discovered a trustworthy local sitter!
Another wonderful stay with Radha and family where our Abby runs to board and have fun. It’s very comforting that she’s so at home with no anxiety and loves to visit. We get daily updates and photos from morning to evening of tail wags and rolling and playing like she’s at home and happy. Excellent care and instructions followed when she’s had diet changes, and Abby actually runs to greet Radha like when she’s excited for family to get home.
Ross, Melissa and Millie are fantastic host for our active, crazy, goof ball Aussies. (Two of them). Followed our instructions, immediately made us feel at ease with pics and videos. Never had to ask about them as Ross was on it for the whole 8 days. Our pups looked happy and well care for. We highly recommend and will use them again. Thank you so much.
Kaja gave me such peace of mind while I was away, knowing my pets would be loved and cared for the whole time. When I did come home, the dogs were very happy and showed absolutely no signs of stress. She shared updates, pictures, and was incredibly fun and easy to work with! Kaja took care of my house too, which was a huge help, and she did a fantastic job.
Yesica - did an amazing job with our dogs. She followed our instructions to a letter and provide provided us consistent updates throughout the day and even pictures of them. This helped us feel a lot more comfortable. We would highly recommend her and will book with her again.
Wenxin and her family took fantastic care of our dog Cricket. Updates and pictures and lots of details about how she adjusted were so appreciated. You could tell they were really caring and attentive. It was Cricket’s first time being cared for by people she didn’t know super well, and she’s pretty nervous by nature. But after a couple days she was happy and playing and snuggling. When we drove away to go back home, she was plastered to the window watching Wenxin go inside - Cricket had gotten attached! We will definitely book with Wenxin again.
Banksy had an amazing time at Luna's and loved playing with Jim. I felt extremely comfortable leaving Banksy with Luna, based on the questions she asked about Banksy, her attention to detail about his needs and safety, and just her kind warm personality! I loved the pictures each day. I wholeheartedly recommend Luna and will definitely be having her watch Banksy again!
Jacqueline gave Paxton the most love and attention! I appreciated the daily updates and she was very responsive. You can tell she truly loves pets and will give them the absolute best care! We’re so happy to have found her, and will continue to book with her in the future.
We had such a wonderful experience leaving our dog with Kate! Kate sent daily pictures and updates, so we never had to worry about how our pup was doing; we could actually relax and enjoy our vacation, knowing she was in such caring hands. Kate's own dog, Rootie, is the sweetest thing, adorable, and so well-behaved, which says a lot about the loving environment she provides. It's clear that dogs are happy and comfortable in her care. We're so glad we got to meet Kate and sweet Rootie, and we'll definitely be knocking on their door again the next time we travel. Highly recommend!
Eric was absolutely wonderful with our dog Soba! He sent us regular updates with photos and videos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. His own dog was a great companion for Soba and it was clear he was having a blast the whole time. We couldn’t have asked for a more attentive and caring sitter. Highly recommend Eric and will definitely be booking with him again!
Julie and Adam took great care of my dog. I have a small, high energy, reactive dog, who is slow to warm up to new people. They cared for him very well and generally seemed unfazed by his shenanigans, which was a relief. They provided plenty of photos and updates, and we will certainly use Julie & Adam again in the future! Thank you!!!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - San Pablo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in San Pablo on Rover is $55.5 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 5,352 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across San Pablo. 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.
93% of San Pablo 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 Pablo 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 Pablo 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 Pablo.
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 Pablo 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.
