“We went out of town to visit family for Christmas. The concerned feeling I normally get each time I think about my dog at home without us is immediately replaced with a nod and smile as I remember ‘she’s with Sandra and Bruce, she probably won’t want to come home, she loves it there so much’. We get complete peace of mind when Gracie is with Sandra.”
“My dog spent two nights at Mel’s house and it went great! Mel texted me a video update which was reassuring. She was open with communication and easy to work with. Next time I need a place for my dog I will book with Mel!”
“Brittany cared for our pup Millie for several nights. We got daily updates and pictures which was greatly appreciated. Millie seemed happy and relaxed when we picked her up. I would definitely rebook with Brittany!”
“Veronica was a life saver! My original boarding plans fell through and she replied back to my inquiry within minutes. She kept me updated on how Penny was doing and sent pictures and videos that put me at ease while I was gone. I will definitely use Veronica’s services if I need boarding again. Thank you so much!”
“Laurel was kind and loving to my Dobbie. This afforded me the privilege to spend time with my family where 4 legged family can’t go. She sent me photos and videos that touched my heart and let me know he was being well cared for. Thank you Laurel and Rover for making this a very positive experience. I would not hesitate to leave him in your care again.”
“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!”
About: Reliable and caring pet sitter with experience feeding, walking, playing, and providing loving attention to your fur baby while ensuring their safety, comfort and happiness. Available Friday through Sunday with flexible availability during the rest of the week. Happy to accommodate different schedules whenever possible to meet your pet care needs. I live in a quiet, spacious apartment with a dog park and lots of room for walks around the property. I lost my own dog about a year ago, so pet sitting has been such a sweet way for me to still get all the puppy love.
“Ashley is great! She’s very good at communicating while she’s in the care of our fur baby! I genuinely feel that Bailey was happy and felt at home. I will definitely book with her in the future! Thank you Ashley!”
“Wonderful! She took great care of my 3 cats and sent pictures showing how they were doing throughout the day. The cats were so relaxed and enjoyed their stay. I will definitely book with them again”
“Alex and her husband were wonderful to our pup Oakley. They both were so easy going and friendly which really made me feel at ease at drop off. Alex sent pictures throughout our trip and when I picked him up, I could tell he had the best time. I definitely recommend them!”
“Patty is great to work with - I had a couple of unexpected changes to the booking and she was terrific about accomodating them. She also has good "cat sense" and reads cat behavior well. My kitty seemed to have a great time on her little vacation and the pictures Patty sent of her were charming. I will definitely book another visit when needed.”
“She’s great! Quick response time, friendly, sends updates on how pet is doing with the new environment, as well as cute/silly things your pet does. She really cares about your pet, and understand that being away is not only not hard on the pet but also the owner.”
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.
“Cassidy was amazing! I received pictures of Cloud every day and updates. They even allowed him on furniture, which was important for my cuddle bug. Their other dogs and Cloud had a really fun time, and even met their cat. Surprisingly Cloud was reportedly great with the cat. Now that I have him home he is just chilling right next to me fighting a nap because he had so much fun”
About: I have been a dog mom most of my life. More recently I’ve worked with a rescue and have experience fostering dogs . All 3 of my dogs are rescues and they are all very different so I’ve learned that they all their own individualized plan I currently work full time so I am available most weekends for boarding. Sometimes I’m off over the summer so my availability opens up then I have a really big fenced yard and a cozy pet friendly home. I have 3 small dogs who I love very much. My heeler mix is a bit fear aggressive towards new people and large dogs but he is obedient and I am working on socializing him more and I know exactly to manage. I’ve fostered a variety of dogs the last year and he just needs time to warm up to new dogs and people. My other 2 are terrier mixes and have been socialized since they were pups.
“Our two-day dog boarding with Keota was absolutely wonderful! Our dog settled in quickly and happily interacted with the hosts and their other pets. A huge thank you to Keota and her family for taking such great care of our dog while we were able to explore Sequoia Park. Keota was very attentive, regularly keeping us posted and sharing pictures and video of our dog. We definitely recommend them—an excellent place to leave your beloved four-legged pet!”
“Tania and her family are wonderful! They took such great care of my dogs and Tania was very responsive and communicative. I loved the updates I got every day and my dogs were super happy. I will absolutely book with Tania again!!”
“My dog, Schuyler, had a great time at Ginny's. She was wonderful at communicating ahead of time, we knew exactly what to do for drop-off, and she took the time to listen to exactly what my dog was like and needed. She sent nightly updates that were really helpful and informative, and it was so clear that she and her partner really enjoyed my dog, and that my dog was feeling relaxed, happy, and taken care of, which meant so much to me! I would absolutely book with them again!”
“Absolutely satisfied with the care and how elizabeth always made sure to keep me updated while caring for my dog. I highly recommend her and will definitely be asking for her service again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Visalia
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Visalia on Rover is $38.6 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 127 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.
