“I cannot recommend Mel and her dog watching service enough! She is absolutely amazing with all the animals she cares for. I recently had Mel watch my dog Frank and she went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable. Mel sent me frequent videos and updates throughout the day, which truly put my mind at ease. It was so nice to see Frank having a great time and being well taken care of. Mel's love and dedication to animals is truly evident in the way she treats them. Thank you again, Mel, for taking such good care of Frank. I will definitely be using your services again in the future!”
“Thank you for all your help! Bruce had a fantastic time and fell asleep right when he got home. I could tell he enjoyed it and all the pictures were so helpful to let me know he was enjoying himself while I traveled!”
“We brought our dog, Gracie, back to Sandra for a second time; this time for one night and two days. Sandra sent us many videos and photos each day of Gracie enjoying her stay and playing with their dog Bruce. We look forward to Gracie’s next stay with Sandra.”
“Laura is a great dog sitter. She sent me lots of pictures with my dogs wagging their tails. My dogs looked great when I picked them up. Laura is now on my permanent list to watch my babies when I need someone. Has lovely home surrounding and large backyard. Her dog gets along well with mine. Thank you Laura.”
“Brittany and her family have watched our pup 3 times now, both overnight and just for the day, and we’ve been very happy with her care! Our dog is excited to see her when we drop her off, and always seems happy and well taken care of when we pick her up. Brittany is super considerate of the nuances our dog is used to, and is very easy going. We appreciate her so much!”
“This was our first time booking with Carola and we had a great experience. Our little Dukey boy loved his stay and hanging out with her pups, Killer and Prince. Duke almost didn't want to come home! 😂 I didn't have phone connection during my time away and she still sent daily updates with pictures, even though I didn't respond. Highly recommend Carola for your pet's boarding needs!”
“Excellent service and very professional! She always kept me informed about how my little dog was doing and sent me photos. Blacki came back very happy after staying at her caregiver’s home. I’m truly grateful for the loving and patient care she gave my baby. I highly recommend her services 💯”

“I had a lovely experience leaving Beans with Anissa. She sent a lot of feedback and photos and I knew he was in good hands. He’s been very happy since coming home and seems like he had the best time playing with the other pups when boarding. Very much would recommend and stay with Anissa again.”
About: I have taken care of pets, cats and dogs, from a young age. I grew up a cat and dog owner and have always loved my pets. I have experience training young dogs for sit, stay, fetch, lay down, roll over, wait, and go. I also regularly pet sit for family members. I am currently not working due to summer break, so I have full open availability. When school starts in August, I will be available evening after 5 and all day weekends. I am hoping to find pet sitting for weekends and dog walks for week days. I currently have a 3 bedroom apartment that is pet friendly. I can take care of small dogs/ cats at my own home and able to take them for walks around my neighborhood. I am willing and comfortable to pet sit in the client’s home and to go to the client’s home to take pups for walks.
“Lolita was so great. Not only was she very good with my frenchies, but she sent pictures & videos daily. She was always available when I needed to ask any questions. I would definitely book her again. I was very impressed and touched also by how talented she is. She took the time to draw a picture of my babies. I love it so much. My babies took to her right away. Thank you Lolita 💙🩷💙Spencer Elly & Coop”

Laurel was a great sitter throughout radars stay . We had planned a last min get away while visiting family for a day and I needed to find a sitter last minute she was reliable and quick to respond . She sent information and any concerns about radar with pictures as well which I highly appreciated . Radar was in great hands with laurel L Thank you so much again !
Sandra took great care of Bo. She kept us updated with pictures throughout Bo's stay and was quick to answer any questions we had. We always felt informed and knew he was doing well. When we picked him up, it was obvious that he had enjoyed being in her care. He was clearly comfortable with her and happily went to her for some goodbye cuddles. He came home happy and was his usual self. We would definitely book with her again!
Patty and her family were very receptive to Ivy and they offered a warm and inviting environment. Ivy, who is a companion animal is excitable in new environments but this did not seem to be a problem for Patty and her family. We are very happy and will not hesitate to book her again.
We were very satisfied with Hachie’s stay with Luke and his wife. We’re so thankful they were able to accommodate us on such short notice. Luke responded quickly, addressed all of our concerns, and even arranged a last-minute meet and greet, which made us feel very comfortable leaving Hachie in their care. Our pup came home happy and well cared for we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’d definitely book with them again!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Visalia on Rover is $38.85 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 124 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Visalia. 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.
83% of Visalia 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 Visalia 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 Visalia 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 Visalia.
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 Visalia 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.
