“David and Monisa took great care of Koda. I really appreciated the loving home environment they provided him. I would definitely recommend them and I will be using them again to care for Koda.”
“Thank you, Kim & Chris, for taking such great care of our little Mazzie. I have terrible anxiety leaving our rescue pup. But with your loving care, all of my anxiety went away knowing that Mazzie would be well cared for. We look forward to booking with you again.”
“Being new to California, one of the hardest things for me has been finding someone I truly trust with my dog, Cooper. I usually take him everywhere with me, but recently that hasn’t always been possible. I’m so grateful to have found Hyangja! She took the time to meet with Cooper and me before my trip to make sure we were all comfortable and that it would be a good fit. We spent time getting to know each other while Cooper happily roamed around and made himself at home. While I was away, she sent me updates and pictures, which gave me such peace of mind. It was wonderful seeing that Cooper was comfortable, happy, and having a great time. I truly appreciate the care and attention she gave him. I think Cooper and I have officially found our perfect sitter, and that makes this dog mom very happy! Highly recommend!”
“Kirsten, Kristian and her kids are great with our dog! They made her feel right at home, sent updates, played with her, took her for walks and even got spoiled on the couch and bed. We’re very happy we found our go-to dog sitters now.”
“Kosar was a fantastic sitter! She took excellent care of our dog, including multiple daily walks and frequent photo updates. We highly recommend her and definitely hope to use her services again in the future.”
“We were leaving Tito after a long time at a boarding place and was nervous because of the accident that happened in 2023 at a boarder’s place with an injury. Irine was very assuring and made us feel comfortable by listening to us. She also responded immediately when we requested for booking and came and met us at a nearby park near her residence. She brought her dog Kiki who is very friendly with Tito and we were able to explain our needs to Irine. She helped us feel better and promised to take care of Tito well with special attention, even though there were 4 other dogs during the stay. She kept us informed about other dogs that were boarding with Tito. Irine kept us updated everyday about how Tito was doing that helped us stay comfortably during our vacation. Tit also seemed to have loved the stay there with Irine & his other furry friends. Overall a great experience. Thanks Irine !”
“Zhao and her family took good care of Socrates. I chose them because their house is similar size like mine and my cat prefers bigger space. I was given frequent update of my Socrates with pictures and videos.”
“Zcarina did an amazing job boarding Simba! She sent me pictures and video and gave me helpful tips a d guidance. My Simba was so said to leave he had to be carried out. I look forward to using Zcarina’s services over and over again.”
“Hely and her husband Pratik were excellent hosts for our senior dog for 3 nights. They provided daily updates and photos to reassure us that she was comfortable sunbathing in their backyard, strolling at the park, and doing her best impression of a couch potato at home. Hely and Pratik put effort into feeding, walking, and even brushing our dog’s teeth. They boarded another dog at the same time and ensured both pooches were in good company. We will definitely choose to board our dog with Hely and Pratik in the future!”
“I am so grateful to have found Xue on Rover! She was incredibly cordial and took such great care of our 5month old puppy while we were on vacation. Xue went above and beyond by sending us daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“We are so glad we found Sameee on Rover! He is very gentle with dogs and is very caring towards them. I dropped my dog teddy with sameer for a few days and unfortunately teddy hurt himself on the same day ofnour travel. Sameer took care of his wounds really well and updated me on how teddy was healing. Teddy was completely alright by the time we picked him up. Thank you so much sameer! I would 100% recommend him.”
“We absolutely loved the care Sony received! Navneet treated him with so much love, patience, and attention, as if he were her own dog. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Sony was happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout his stay. We truly appreciate the updates and the genuine affection she showed him. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care! 🐾💕”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for furry friends, and I’m excited to help your pup feel happy and loved while you’re away. Though I recently had to be separated from my own dog, I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life, so I know how to give them attention, comfort, and fun. Whether it’s a quick visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I treat every dog like a part of the family. I’d love to meet your pup and provide the care, attention, and companionship they deserve! I work from home in a pet-friendly community, so your dog will get plenty of walks, cuddles, and attention all day. I have a flexible schedule if provided with enough notice. I prioritize safety, trust, and a happy environment for every dog. Since I don’t currently have any pets, your pup will have my full attention! I provide walks, cuddles, and supervision in a secure, pet-friendly space. Whether in my home or yours, I follow your rules and routines exactly, treating your dog and your home with the same love and respect I would my own.
“We were so lucky to find Amy, she took a very good care of my two poodles, we really appreciate her. My two poodles had a great time with her and her family, I can tell from the pictures she sent to us, they had a wonderful stay with Amy. We are happy with her and we definitely will continue work with Amy for our two poodles when we need, thanks so much Amy 🥰”
“We had such a great experience with Cecilia and Ethan! I was honestly a little nervous at first since I had never used Rover before or had strangers care for our dogs, especially since one of our dogs requires daily medication. We decided to do an initial meet-and-greet beforehand so we could get to know Cecilia and Ethan and make sure they were the right fit, and I’m so glad we did! I shared a detailed care guide with them, and they followed everything to a tee. They were incredibly responsible, attentive, and responsive throughout our entire trip. They also went above and beyond by taking our dogs out to the lake and even to Monterey! We received lots of photos and videos every day, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs basically had a little vacation of their own! 🥹 It’s very clear that Cecilia and Ethan genuinely care about dogs and put a lot of thought into making sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will absolutely be going with Cecilia and Ethan again the next time we need someone to care for our dogs. Highly recommend them! 🐶♥️”

Kirsten & Kristian took such excellent care of our girls. We felt at ease knowing our girls were having such a great time with them. Our girls were immediately behaving like they would at home, lounging about and displaying their little quirks. We looked forward to their daily updates and enjoyed seeing them excited on their walks which included lots of nature— I know they enjoyed this a lot. Thank you very much Kirsten, Kristian, and family for caring for our girls. We look forward to them spending time with you all again! : )
Thank you so much for taking such good care of my dog. I loved the pictures and updates, hearing about the different games you played with him like hiding his food around the house and the cup game. Thank you for letting him get used to you gradually as he's a bit nervous at first but he seemed to be really comfortable by the end of his stay. We'll definitely book in the future!
Alyssa stepped in on short notice when our regular sitter canceled and was completely flexible with our drop off and pickup needs. Communication was fantastic... clear, prompt, and friendly the entire time. Maui was well cared for and came home tired and happy from playing so much during his stay!
Highly Recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bedotroyee was absolutely amazing with my German Shepherd during a 4-day stay! My dog can be very picky and set in his ways, but she truly cared for him like her own. She kept him active and happy with long walks, trips to the dog park, and plenty of fun playtime in the backyard.I loved getting constant photo, video, and text updates, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Plus, when he had a little too much fun in the mud, she went above and beyond to clean him up thoroughly. I will absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone!
Traci was great with my pup! We were gone for a week. Communication was excellent, she kept me very well informed on everything that was going on. She helped my pup adjust to her home the first few days and went out of her way to sit separately with her for her meals. I would very highly recommend Traci for having your pup stay with her, they will be very well cared for!
I found Kim and Chris just one day before our long travel.Apparently Rover had canceled my booking with another sitter and I was in panic mode.These people were lovely to accommodate me at such short notice.I was a bit hesitant as I have a senior dog with some health issues but they put my mind to ease.Cashew will definitely go back to stay with them in future.Thank you for taking such good care of him .

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Ulmar is $60 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $77 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
92% of sitters in Ulmar can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Ulmar 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 Ulmar.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ulmar. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Ulmar 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
