“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!!”
“I always know Helen will be taken care of and will come home happy! Thanks for watching her this past weekend and for always sending pics and keeping me updated 🌼”
“Anasteysha was fantastic from the get-go: quick replies, communicative, accommodating, and took incredible care of our two pups! We would absolutely rebook with her whenever we need a sitter. Thank you Anasteysha!”
“I’m very happy with Chong! She took excellent care of my dog, sent lots of photos and updates, and even gave my dog a bath. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in great hands. Highly recommend!”
“After our previous dog sitter moved to Northern California, we had a hard time finding someone who compares until we found David! He did an amazing job taking care of our golden retriever, Charlie, even keeping us updated with pictures. David and his dog Auggie were the perfect fit for Charlie and I know they treated him like their own. Will definitely book with David again!”
“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!”
“Darcey was great with our dogs. They took to her right away and she updated us with photos throughout the day. We could see they were being well behaved and they were right at home with her. We were nervous on how they would react to being left with someone else, but it was just another play date for them. It was comforting to get updates and see how they were acclimating.”
“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: For over 11 years, I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, including French Bulldogs, German Shepherds, Weimaraners, Siberian Huskies, and my current English Labrador. Every dog is unique, and I enjoy understanding what makes each one feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I have experience with basic obedience training, including sit, down, stay, wait, leash walking, puppy training, and kennel/crate training. I believe patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement are the best ways to help dogs learn and build confidence. My own dogs are an important part of my family. I feed them a high-quality diet, keep them current on veterinary care and vaccinations, provide daily exercise, and make sure they are well socialized while always putting their safety first. When caring for your dog, I understand they are not my pet, so I always respect your routines, training methods, and instructions. My priorities are safety, regular feeding, exercise, playtime, and making sure your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I treat every dog with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! 🐾 As a business owner, I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give dogs the time and attention they deserve throughout the day. I’m available for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, exercise, and companionship. I understand that every dog has a different routine, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule to help them feel comfortable and at home. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a secure front and backyard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore. There are shaded areas to keep them comfortable on warm days, as well as plenty of space for supervised play and exercise. I carefully introduce dogs to new environments and always monitor their behavior. I follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, and routines. If your dog is crate-trained or has specific needs, I’m happy to accommodate them. I treat every dog with the same love, patience, and respect that I give my own, while making sure they always feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. * I only accept a limited number of dogs at one time so I can give each one plenty of attention. * I send regular photo and video updates while you’re away. * Fresh water is always available, and dogs are never left outside unsupervised. * I can reinforce basic commands and leash manners during their stay.
About: I've worked with dogs and cats since 2008 where I started at the humane society. After working there for four years I worked at at animal hospital for ten years and also owned my own pet sitting business during that time. Being around animals is second nature to me! I am currently a stay at home mom. The only times I am really unavailable is when dropping off my own children at school in between the hours of 730-8am and school pick ups between the hours of 130-230. I have a large fenced in yard. I have a sliding glass door that has a built in doggie door so they animals all have access to enter the home or head outside at their own will. I also have a side yard that is fenced away from my large yard for those animals that need extra time to adjust or would prefer to be on their own instead of with the pack. The side yard has half artificial grass and half concrete that is fully shaded.There is AC in the summer and a heater for the cold winters that your pet can enjoy.
“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!”
“Rachel was absolutely incredible! She took care of our Chip over the holidays and he had a great stay with her and her pups. She was super responsive, friendly, sent us lot of pictures, and we were so happy to know he was getting lots of love and attention from her. We pile definitely recommend Rachel and book with her again in the future.”
“Lori is a natural caretaker. She provided so much love and attention to Zara, my standard poodle. I could see how much fun Zara was having through the photogenic pictures Lori sent each day. Lori's 1-acre of land is such a plus for the dogs to run and play. At the end of the stay, Zara and Lori were both sad to part. That speaks volumes about the wonderful level of care your pet will receive while staying with Lori. Book her now!”
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own. I know every dog has a different personality and routine, so I do my best to make them feel comfortable and keep things as normal as possible while you’re away. I’m dependable, easy to communicate with, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, or just relaxing on the couch, I’m happy to match their energy and give them the attention they need. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra potty breaks and patience, as well as older dogs who may need a little extra care. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your pet is in good hands. Hi! I’m home full-time, which means your pet will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. I’m a dependable animal lover who enjoys getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or just relaxing, I’m happy to follow their routine and give them the care they need. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet! I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved, whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I give them plenty of attention and affection while also respecting their individual personality and needs. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can see how they’re doing and have peace of mind while you’re away.
“This was our pup’s first overnight away from home in preparation for a longer trip and she did great. Lucy and her family are so loving and kind, our pup was able to relax and have fun, despite her anxious disposition. Highly recommend!”
“Sean & family (including their dog Zorian) were just wonderful dog sitters! This was a repeat booking with him and I certainly plan to use him again in the future. They welcomed my dog into their family and took great care of him!”
“Michelle & Evan are Rockstars Dog boarding team. Our Tomasa is an old, shy and nervous Chihuahua and since moment 1 she felt in confidence as part of the team with both of them. They took care of all her necessities (food, walks, sleep, cold, sunbaths, poo) we actually believe they spoiled our Tomasa even more than Us which is Good. She came back happy, clean and well fed. For us this was the best weekend traveling because we felt confident that our Dog was in the best hands, they constantly updated us with Photos and updates on their adventures. They are now our Go To pet caring for any future travel I will check with them first. Thanks”
“Thank you for saying yes last minute! I appreciate the pictures, prompt responses and flexibility in pickup and drop off. Thank you for giving Mr Clingy lots of Easter love and attention. Hope you’ll have Oscar back in your home again :)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Vista
Our first time leaving our pup with Chong and it was a great experience. She was very responsive, has a nice area for the dogs to hang out in and you can tell they care about the doggies. Our pup is 11 months and is still a bit barky and wakes up a few times a at night and they were understanding and flexible. Will be booking again soon!
David is great! This was our first experience with him. For the first time Mila did not jump in my arms when she saw me at pickup. She was perfectly happy with David. Finding someone trustworthy is hard to find. I feel like you could trust him as he also can relate since he has his own dog. Super kind and careful with treating Mila. I truly appreciate how responsive he is. Fantastic all around!! 🙏
Kim was amazing and went far above and beyond when she was taking care of Ziggy. She took the time to schedule an intro call, asked thorough questions, and also did a meet and greet beforehand to ensure she would be the right fit. While watching Ziggy, she also went out of her way to sew his toy that he had bitten a hole in, and buy him snacks from the store to help with the process of administering his medication. Kim was also very proactive in her communication and regularly provided updates and photos, which put my mind at ease while I was on my trip. I will 100% be reaching out to Kim again for any future sitting needs!
Amazing!! They watched my two dogs on short notice and were absolutely amazing! They made me feel so comfortable at drop-off and reassured me that my dogs were in great hands. They sent photos and videos throughout the day, which I really appreciated. They were also incredibly patient and accommodating when we ran a little late for pickup and needed to extend their stay by an hour. I would definitely recommend them and would happily book with them again!
Our pups always have a great time with Jillian! They love playing in the yard and relaxing in the house. We know our pups are in great hands with Jillian. Jillian is very responsive and flexible for drop-off/pick-up times. We highly recommend Jillian as our go-to for Rover.
Erica did fantastic with our yorkie, Mako. After my first Rover experience with a previous pet sitter that didn’t go well, I was quite particular when it came to looking for someone who could watch my dog and accommodate his needs this time around. Erica and her husband did an excellent job with communicating; when I would reach out and check in with Mako, she almost always responded immediately. She sent me daily photos of him and ensured that Mako was enjoying his stay with her. I highly recommend Erica and I will most definitely be reaching out to her in the future for pet sitting when needed!
Thank you, May! Our dog is often slow to adjust to new people and can experience some anxiety when he stays away from home. May always goes the extra mile to make sure Dude is comfortable, happy, and having a great time. You are so appreciated by our family, May! Thank you for taking such great care of our Dude! ❤️🐾
Anton was amazing. Not only did he take care of my free small for kids. I’m short notice but he kept me updated and let me know how sweet they all were. Even better when the fur kids got home they were so excited to be around him and definitely fell in love. There were a few little whimpers once they saw him leave. Anton is definitely a repeat sitter and has gained my trust very rapidly. Thank you very much for taking care of my little fur family members.
Marcy was great with my boys! She sent me pictures a few times a day through their whole stay. She was patient with them taking some time to adjust before eating and by the pictures I could tell they were happy and content by the second day. She took them on many walks and they came home happy! I won’t hesitate to use Marcy again when we have the need for a pet sitter!
Sophie is an amazing sitter! Super kind and welcoming to me and our baby, even had a little meet and greet prior to the stay to ensure they got along well! She sent cute pictures of Baby during his stay, and their own dogs Batman and Robin were super sweet and friendly to me and Baby too! Definitely wouldn't think twice of booking her again, thanks Sophie!
Brianna and Charles took in our fur baby for 3 weeks! We felt so badly leaving her for so long but felt very comfortable leaving her with them. They are wonderful and loving. They sent us photos, gave her meds every day, and reassured us our girl was doing well. We are so grateful for them.
Barbara and David took great care of our dog while we were away. It was a bit of a last second trip but they were able to flex and ensure Molly had great care. She had all the walks and got along great with their Golden. It was so nice to know she has a playmate and was well cared for. Will definitely book again.
Daniel was great! He checked in with pictures and updates, was communicative and our fur babies came back home happy. Its hard to find someone reliable for our Cane Corso because not many people have confidence with the breed, but Daniel was great, an Alpha pet care giver. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Vista on Rover is $51.06 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 4,344 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.
95% 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.
