“Ashish was amazing. This was our pup’s first boarding, and I was very nervous. He reassured me that everything was going to be ok. He also sent us photos through out the visit! He was super accommodating on pick up time as well. Would ABSOLUTELY bring my dog back here if I needed boarding again!”
“Cooper was very well taken care of and we think he felt part of the family. We also received thorough updates all the time during his visit. We will definitely book again as soon as we are in need! Thank you Wenxin!”
“It was a roller-coaster at first, previous bookie canceled at the last moment so we had to scramble to find another sitter, flight was leaving in 2hrs. She accepted we have never been separated longer than a work day. Anna was/IS great!! She took great care of Aries sent plenty of pix and had us at ease!! Definitely will be booking her again”
“Ross was awesome! From our initial meeting, he asked all the right questions about the care and personality of my pup. During my pups stay, Ross was great about sending daily photos and updates on how my little guy was managing with my absence. I could see from the photos that my pup and Ross's pup were getting along really well... This left me feeling very comfortable that my pup was enjoying his 'vacation'. Thanks so much Ross! We look forward to Baxter staying with you again soon!”
“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!”
“I’m very happy that i finally found safe, fun and comfortable stay for my Denver. Sabin is reliable, trustworthy and goes above and beyond. My dog was very happy and was playing with their dog (nimki) when i got their to pick him up.. they are such a sweetheart!!! Definitely will book him again! !! Highly recommended!!!!!!!”
“Luis took great care of our dog. He seemed happy in every update I received during our trip.I can tell he really enjoys taking care of dogs and will definitely use him again if the need arises.”
“Ali is the BEST! She is professional, her home is clean and the pups are all happy. It’s like a dogs vacation. Ali communicates efficiently and provides pics to assure us that our pup is happy and comfortable. Ali is always my go to boarder.”
“You took great care of Maia and she seemed happy and settled in easily. We appreciate you being very welcoming and we knew she would get along with other dogs and be well cared for. We'll definitely be back in touch when we travel again!”
“I'm really appreciate Nadine's care for Laila. She seemed really nervous on the first day despite having a meet&greet beforehand. Nadine was patient with her and she sent an update every day and I love seeing that Laila is getting along with her cute poms. My car broke down on my last day of the trip and Nadine was able to extend the booking for another day and dropped her back to our house.”
“Hope is great with nervous dogs and makes them feel comfortable and loved. We booked her last minute for a week long trip caused by a family emergency, and it was so nice to not have to worry about our pup. Hope is very communicative and sends lots of pics and videos. Great sitter!”
“Jeanette was great with our dog, her whole family was very sweet and accommodating. Jeanette always maintained consistent communication, and we really appreciated her taking our relatively new rescue on fairly short notice. We were very satisfied with our dogs stay with her.”
“Jennifer was great! This was our first time using Rover for our very playful golden retriever. Jennifer was quick to respond to all messages. We had a meet and greet with her and her dog to make sure it was a good fit. Her backyard is a great size. While we were away Jennifer sent us daily photos and updates, even a video. When I messaged her questions she responded quickly. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Jennifer and will use her again!”
“Lauren and San are awesome. They took incredible care of Lucy cuddling her and taking her out around town. We appreciated their clear communication and the cute photos we received!”
“Deborah had my dog for a week while I was on a work trip. I hate leaving him, but she made the trip so much better with regular photos and updates. He had a great time, and I could not have been more pleased. It actually enabled me to enjoy my trip. Thank you!!”
“Mariah is incredibly kind, warm, responsible, and flexible. She took great care of Bolo and helped maintain our training protocols (which can be a big ask with a 10 month old pup!) She did careful and thoughtful introductions with her doggies, took Bolo on walks, fed him, and made sure he was comfortable and happy. She also sent frequent updates and photos, so I could relax knowing my little guy was doing alright. Her house is perfect for dogs - she has multiple gates to separate dogs as needed and a big yard for the pups to play. She also lives on a quiet street, so there are not cars zooming by.”
“Michael has taken care of our pup a few times now. He always takes great care of her, and we love that she has a friend to play with (his dog Mayzie) when she goes there. He communicates with us about how she is doing regularly throughout her stay there, and he even sends photos, which really gives us peace of mind. Thanks Michael!”
“Luffy really has a great time with Kianna and her family. He gets lots of love from her children and I love seeing all the photo updates! As always, thank you for taking such good care of luffy.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for 15 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while away. I’m patient, attentive, active, and genuinely love animals. I understand the importance of making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I love taking dogs on hikes and to the beach as well. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week and on weekends. I enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors, and making sure pets get the care, attention, exercise, and companionship they need to feel happy and comfortable. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment and always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, routines, medications, walks, and special care needs. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and body language to ensure they feel safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.

Nathaniel and his mom took great care of Kona while we were away for an extended 12 week trip. They provided regular communications and photos of Kona and it felt great knowing they were taking care of her in a pinch when our friends and family who normally watch her while we are traveling were unavailable. Thanks Nathaniel!
Asatur is truly the best pet sitter we could ask for! He takes such amazing care of our dogs, Luna and Pippi, and we always feel completely comfortable knowing they’re with him. He’s incredibly reliable and is always willing to help, even on short notice. One of the things we love most is that he takes care of multiple dogs at once, so Luna and Pippi get to spend their time hanging out and playing with their friends rather than being alone. They absolutely love going to Asatur’s! He’s also incredibly thoughtful and attentive when it comes to their individual needs. He makes sure they’re fed on schedule, gets their medicine right, and genuinely treats them like they’re his own. It’s clear how much he cares about every dog in his care. We couldn’t recommend Asatur more highly. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your dogs, look no further. Luna and Pippi are always excited to see him, and that says everything!
Jennifer and her husband, Talisson, were amazing with our dog, Cardi B! Right before our trip, Cardi was unexpectedly prescribed three different medications, and they did such a great job keeping up with her medication schedule and making sure she was well cared for while we were away. I also really appreciated how transparent Jennifer was from the very beginning. With other sitters I’ve met through Rover, I’ve sometimes found that they are reluctant to show you the inside of the home where your dog will actually be staying, which has always made me a little hesitant. Jennifer was the complete opposite. She welcomed us inside during our meet and greet and showed us where Cardi would be staying. Her home was incredibly neat and clean, and that immediately made me feel so much more comfortable leaving Cardi with her. We had so much peace of mind knowing Cardi was in such good hands, and we’re so grateful for the care Jennifer and Talisson gave her. Thank you both so much for taking such great care of our girl! We’ll absolutely be booking with you guys again! ☺️🩵
Mariah is incredibly kind, warm, responsible, and flexible. She took great care of Bolo and helped maintain our training protocols (which can be a big ask with a 10 month old pup!) She did careful and thoughtful introductions with her doggies, took Bolo on walks, fed him, and made sure he was comfortable and happy. She also sent frequent updates and photos, so I could relax knowing my little guy was doing alright.

Kaja took in our 5 month old puppy last minute so our family could go out of town for a funeral. Once I chatted with her on the phone, I knew our puppy would be in good hands. It was a relief to have one less thing to worry about. Kaja was incredibly communicative and sent us photos and videos. Would absolutely rebook.
Ross, Melissa, and Millie were the best sitters we could ask for! We received constant photo updates and they loved on our pups as if they were their own! Our dogs were sad to leave and we could tell from all the photos, walks, and adventures that they had an absolute blast. Would absolutely rebook again when we are out of town and need a sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in San Pablo on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,388 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.
