“Vadym and his family have been great with my boys. They are really comfortable there and can go in and outside at will, as they do at home. Vadym has been super flexible when I have needed to make changes in time or extend stays.”

“Pepper had so much fun. This sitter updated me constantly and sent me pictures throughout the days. My dog had so much fun and felt so comfortable with this sitter. I didn’t have to worry about the safety or wellbeing of my pepper with Gabi. Gabi was super quick to respond to me and asked permission before taking my pepper anywhere. I will absolutely use Gabi again and recommend her to anyone that’s using Rover! This was my first time using rover and this experience really set the tone for the app! Amazing dog sitter!!”

“Chong is really amazing. Tippy practically jumps out the car as soon as we get there. She makes sure she keeps you updated and feeling relieved that your fur baby is in good hands. She’s my number one go to for boarding.”

“We had a great experience with Sarah! She was reliable, communicated clearly, and took wonderful care of Zoey and Milo. We got regular updates and came home to happy pups. I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve raised dogs, cats, bearded dragons, chickens, pigs, and taken care of other people’s dogs for awhile now. I love all animals and figured I could use my free time to help yours out! Im currently in between jobs so I have time. Long walks, cuddles, treats are all on the agenda. I really enjoy the company and love animals so much. Pups are safe at my home. So I’m available for day care, and possible overnights if discussed. Drop ins are no problem all day within a 10 mile radius of my work in Oceanside, and on weekends within a 15 mile radius of my home in vista.
“Elizabeth and her family were amazing! They sent us daily photo updates while our dog, Shake, was staying at their home, which gave us so much peace of mind. Shake looked incredibly happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Our kids were even joking that he might not want to come back home because he was having such a great time! We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would happily trust Elizabeth with Shake again.”

“Hyun is the best dog sitter, she took great care of my puppy Honey, and even train her to go potty outside finally! She truly cares about your dog, and she constantly gives you updates and photos. It was honestly the best experience boarding Honey with Hyun. If you have the chance to get your puppy a sitter, be sure is Hyun because she really is the best! Thank you so much for taking such a good care of Honey. 💗😊”

“Amanda and her family were so great with Bogey, and on were super flexible on short notice. She was patient with him as he warmed up, provided updates (including pics and vids) multiple times a day. You can just tell they’re dog people, couldn’t recommend them more!”

“Sean and his wife took amazing care of our dog, Ollie while we went on a family vacation to Kauai. I received daily photo updates, and beautiful sunset hike images of Ollie out enjoying nature. It wasn’t easy leaving our boy behind for the first time, but knowing Ollie was in such capable and loving hands made all the difference. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, responsible pet care. I will definitely be using Seans services in the future!”

“Kimberly was so wonderful with our two doggos. They welcomed them into their home just like family. They enjoyed their stay based on the photos received daily and came back happy and healthy. I recommend Kim and will definitely book with her in the future!”

“Alexandra is amazing. She went above and beyond for my dog. I have a senior dog and has so much anxiety but he had had no issues with her. He definitely felt like he was home. I would definitely recommend her and I will definitely be calling her again for future dog sitting needs.”

“Lori was great in multiple ways. She welcomed Coaster in and made him a part of the pack. We got lots of photos and updates every day, so we knew he was doing well. Large, fenced property for exploring and playing. Our travel plans changed while we were away, and she was flexible enough to extend Coaster's stay by several days, including feeding him her own food after ours ran out. I'm sure he'll love to go back. From our home, she's a little out of the way, but it's more than worth it. We're grateful.”
“David watched my dogs for two days. Both dogs have had some reactivity to different dogs/things so I was pretty nervous. David reassured me and was able to guide the dogs through a positive experience and one of them was even able to build new experiences with other dogs. It was such a wonderful experience!!”

“This was my first time boarding my dog with rover. Briana and Charles were awesome. They took care of my little dog very well. They sent me pictures every day and communicate very well. If I could I would give them 10 stars.”

About: Growing up with dogs and missing my own, I am looking to help keep dogs happy, healthy and loved by walking, hiking, play and overnights care. My kids and I like to travel and understand how hard traveling can be when you can’t take them with you. I work full time, but will soon be off for the summer. I also have most weekends free and can drop in during my lunch if close to work. I have a great dog park near our place but prefer trails. Dogs that stay with my kids and I will be well loved and treated like family. We are a dog family but aren’t ready for another pup yet. I will be the one caring for your pet, but my kids will help give your pet lots of love, attention and belly rubs.
“Darcey is the best Dog 🐶 sitter ever! Truly cares, is genuine, passionate ,patient and an amazing person and Dog Sitter. We are so thankful we found her. Kona Boy came home happy and content. I know he misses her already and can’t wait see her again. Thank you so much Darcey 🥰🐾. Lori and David.”

I am so grateful to have found Marcy. She was extremely attentive to my Honey and was extra patient and loving to her. She did all of my pups favorite things, including sharing walks with her sweet senior boy, Simba. She even let her cuddle with her in bed! Since it was my pups first time with Marcy, she was a little nervous at first but it didn't take long for her to come around because of Marcy's constant patience and gentle reassurance. Her home and garden is very pet friendly and safe as well. There is even a lake nearby that the dogs love. I will definitely be bringing my HoneyBear back for another visit with Marcy & Simba in the very near future.

Gabriela took great care of my girl over a long weekend! My pup was taken on plenty of walks and to the park. Gabriela was super responsive and sent multiple photos over the weekend. Her dogs are also so friendly and made fast friends with mine! I felt so safe having Nami in Gabriela’s care and would love to bring her back for more play dates!

I have a regular dog sitter but she’s away for a week and I needed to find someone to watch my dog for a couple of days, I always like to have her spend a few hours at the home before leaving her overnight, I reached out to Anasteysha and she responded immediately and said no problem, I brought my dog over and Anasteyshas parents came out and greeted me and my dog and my dog trotted off with them as I said good bye, They sent me a few pictures and videos and let me know she was doing well, I went and picked her up a few hours later and she came out and immediately tried to go back inside - with that, i knew she liked being there, We’ll be going back for the overnight this coming weekend and i will feel comfortable leaving her with the family.

David was awesome! This was the first time I had ever left my 5 year old Boxer Roscoe with anyone and I was so nervous. David gave me a good feeling from the minute we met and it was Obvious Roscoe likes him. I was able to spend 9 days away getting updates and pics seeing how happy and well taken care of Roscoe was. I HIGHLY recommended David!

We’ve used her twice now and couldn’t be happier! Carey and her family are wonderful and genuinely love dogs, and it’s clear they treat our pups like part of the family. She always sends thoughtful updates, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. She’s also been incredibly flexible and accommodating when we’ve needed to adjust our dates and times, and even when we changed our reservation from one dog to two. She has done an excellent job following the special care instructions and rules for one of our dogs. We feel completely comfortable leaving our dogs with her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!

Darcey is wonderful! First and foremost it’s so clear she’s a dog lover. And on top of that, we really felt like she took all our notes/tips/heads-ups about our dog Winnie to heart. We knew Winnie was in good hands on her staycation with Darcey, and that means a lot.

May was amazing with my very anxious Lil gal! She was so patient and kind with her. She sent this sad mama tons of pictures and it warmed to heart to see how well Bailey did with her and her husband! By the time I picked her up I could tell my girl was VERY comfortable with them both! I will definitely be taking Bailey to her in the future!

Alexandra is amazing. She went above and beyond for my dog. I have a senior dog and has so much anxiety but he had had no issues with her. He definitely felt like he was home. I would definitely recommend her and I will definitely be calling her again for future dog sitting needs.

We are so thankful for Melissa. We were out of the country for almost a week and didn't stress once, thanks to all the great updates she sent along the way. She took the time with our dog with anxiety from past trauma, we could tell she really cared. Now that we're back, our dogs are happy, relaxed, and totally sleepy from all the fun they had. Look forward to booking her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Vista on Rover is $51.06 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 4,319 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Vista. 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.
96% of Vista 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 Vista 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 Vista 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 Vista.
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 Vista 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.
