“Keitel and his family were amazing. I honestly don’t think my dog wanted to come back! Keitel was attentive to Bugsy’s needs and made him comfortable during his stay. I will definitely be using him again.”
“Aurora and her family were great. I received daily photos of my dog when I picked her up. She seemed to be all happy and I could tell that she enjoyed her time there. I highly recommend her for your pet needs.”
“This was the first time we have ever left our dog with anyone outside of our family as we had just moved to the area, and he seemed to have had a blast with his new friends and family while we were away for a long holiday weekend. Thanks so much!”
“Based on her expertise, Lilly took great care of my cat, Meeruya. I was surprised that Rudy and Lilly got close to my sensitive cat in a short time. Special thanks to Lilly, who understood and cared about my baby’s poop mistakes. She shared the home camera so I could see my pet while I was out of the U.S., and I had no problem communicating with her. She had a strong responsibility and love for Meeruya. I recommend her if you are looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“Darian was great with my boy Floyd!! She sent so many fun updates of him and he looked so happy in every single one. I was very pleased with how she was with Floyd!! Would 100% recommend and go to again :)”
“Samantha was amazing! She kept me updated with photos and videos the entire weekend. She has a very calming and nurturing spirit that my dog Sammy really took to. I would definitely rebook and recommend her.”
“My dogs loved the yard and I could tell they played hard! They were tuckered out when they got home, which after traveling is how I like them to be! They didn't have any issues, and will be letting them stay at Ron's again. This weekend even!”
“We researched for just the right sitter for our 2 dogs while we had to leave town for 4 days and 4 nights. We were very nervous about leaving them without knowing the person we were leaving them with but Kylie was wonderful with them. She is very professional and she sent us updates on how they were doing each day. We would highly recommend Kylie and will surely use her services in the future.”
“Thank you Heather for the outstanding care of Lanikai. I could tell she was happy and content while she was at your home. I will definitely contact you should I need someone to love on Lanikai when I go out of town and she can’t come with me.”
“This is our third time using Rover and our first time with Dennis L. Our experience was fantastic. Dennis obviously is a dog lover and took great care of our two large dogs. We received pictures of our dogs while on vacation. Communication was excellent and the process was very easy. We hope to use Dennis again and would highly recommend him!”
“Sam was great with Daisy and super to work with. She puts a great deal of energy and effort in the care of the dogs. I highly recommend Sam and look forward to utilizing her services in the future.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have owned dogs most of my life (variety of breeds). I currently have a mini-Pomeranian and a Golden Retriever, who love making new friends! I've helped family and friends with pets over the years, and I also volunteered at a mill-dog rescue when I lived in Colorado - giving meds, cleaning, and socializing. I will make sure your fur-baby receives the best care!! I work full-time M-F (normal day-time hours) but can work from home whenever I want. I live close to work and, therefore, can drive home for check-ins/walks if I do need to be at my office. I have a lot of availability and flexibility on weekends. I have a small, fenced yard in a quiet, safe neighborhood. It's extra secure because my small dog would, otherwise, be able to sneak out of it. It's also partially shaded, but they would not need to be outside unless they preferred to be!
“Meghan and her family took such good care of my pups! I was thrilled to receive pictures throughout my time away. She made my pups feel right at home :) I will definitely rebook her for future trips!”
“Kyndal had a great time with Cheryl! When I picked her up, you could tell she had been very well taken care of & SO happy. I will be booking with Cheryl again in the future!”
“Jeffery was reasonably priced, prompt in replying and communicated well what to expect. He was very kind and seemed to let Abigail get comfortable at her own speed as she's never stayed with anyone other than 2 or 3 immediate family members. Jeffrey sent pictures as promised and had her packed and ready to go when i picked her up. This was my first time using Rover and very relieved to find Jeffery! I hope he agrees to keep her should the need arise in the future!”
“Chloe is the best. This is the first time I've used. Rover.com, so I was a little nervous. Chloe put me at ease and my cat loved her. I would definitely leave Sadie with her again.”
“Kylee was amazing!! We have 2 high energy dogs and she handled them beautifully, lots of attention and activity. She was communicative and very easy to work with. Definitely recommend!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Valley Center on Rover is $35 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 153 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Valley Center. 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 Valley Center 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 Valley Center 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 Valley Center 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 Valley Center.
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 Valley Center 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 KS 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.
