“Yuan was really sweet and caring to my dog. She sends me updates in the form of texts and videos that gave me peace of mind- knowing that my pet is in good hands. Grateful that she accepted my booking at the last minute, and some modifications. 10/10 💙”
“Caihua was absolutely lovely. Took great care of my 7mo old Sokka pup. She followed any and all directions wonderfully. He got to romp and run and play every day, and even made friends. She sent me videos of him everyday, would definitely would use again.”
“We had an amazing experience with xiaoting while we were in the hospital delivering our baby. She was incredibly flexible with our changing dates and pickup timing, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during such an unpredictable time. She went above and beyond by preparing Mocha’s food when needed and kept us updated with frequent videos and messages throughout her stay. It was so reassuring to see how comfortable, happy, and well cared for Mocha was. When we needed to extend her stay unexpectedly, she was extremely accommodating and treated her like he was her own dog. We could truly see in every video how much love and attention Mocha received, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed her time there. We are so grateful for the exceptional care she provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Arthur and his fiancee took care of our bernedoodle, Jack, for the first time while we were on vacation. Despite no daily walks, they provide daily photos and daily playtime in their spacious backyard with their dogs. Arthur was kind enough to watch Jack an extra day on short notice due to my oversight on our inbound flight.”
“I left my cat with Eileen for about 4 nights and 5 days and I’m so beyond pleased with how well she cared for my cat! I was super anxious as it was my first time and she was so reassuring everything would be fine and she would take great care of him. Her energy was very calming and relaxed which allowed me to feel very calm and relaxed and my cat as well. She updated me constantly throughout the day, took pictures, and my cat was very happy and relaxed in her presence. I will definitely be booking with Eileen again in the future! TYSM!!!”
“여기 자연스럽고 따뜻한 영어 번역이에요: She is truly kind, and you can feel how much she loves dogs. My dog liked her immediately the moment they first met and followed her without even looking back. 😂 She also sends me photos and videos often, so I feel very reassured. I will definitely choose her again next time.👍🏻”
“Luliia took very good care of my dog! She took him on walks and made sure he was safe and happy. She also sent lots of pictures that showed me he had a big smile on his face the whole time. He’s really attached to me, so I had worried he would be anxious, but he loves Luliia! Will book again!!”
“Wonderful experience, delightful family , friendly, communicative, flexible with time, sending daily photo and video updates , overall a wonderful experience! Five stars ! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
“Rebecca was a great dog sitter for Kendi. She is very accommodating, kind, and great with my dog. Will book with her in the future. Even with my last minute trip changes, she was flexible and very helpful!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Miumiu! From start to finish, the communication was clear, quick, and super friendly. Miumiu was treated like family and came back home happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. It gave me total peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and attentive hands. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pets!”
“Jane and Ray were such great vacation parents to our Luna. They treated her as one of the family. They played fetch with her, took her on walks, and gave her lots of cuddles and belly rubs. Jane sent us lots of daily pictures and videos. I will definitely be booking with Jane for our future trips. Thanks again to both of you.”
About: Since childhood, I have been a devoted pet caregiver, with years of hands-on experience looking after dogs of all breeds. Friends, family, and neighbors have long trusted me to provide high-quality care, including feeding, engaging play sessions, and attentive daily routines. I am committed to creating a safe, loving, and stress-free home environment for every pet. My goal is to ensure that your furry companion feels happy, comfortable, and well-cared for while you are away. My part-time work schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of high-quality time and attention to your pups throughout the day. Please feel free to reach out so we can communicate and find the best arrangement for your pet. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my absolute priorities. My home features a secure, fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play, and I have two friendly dogs who are great at socializing and keeping your furry baby company.
“Mr and Mrs Kim were the best sitters for my dog Juicy! I could tell he bonded with them well and enjoyed sitting on their lap and going for walks. I was sent pictures and videos daily while I was on vacation. We hope to rebook with them for future dog sitting!”
“As someone who needed not only a last minute appointment, but a very worried dog mom I was very anxious bringing my dog at first. However, not only did Connie respond immediately, but they also sent frequent photos and updates of how my dog was doing. I felt very safe with the constant updates of how my dog was doing. I was surprised at the rate Connie was charging and I would definitely book again.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a dog - loving family, caring for breeds of all sizes - from Labrador Retriever and Beagle to my current Labradoodle. Through the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of dog behavior and how to care for each pup based on their unique personality and needs. I’m very detail-oriented, responsible, and easy to reach - I prioritize clear communication and am available 24/7 for updates or questions. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and loving environment for your dog, just like home. I’d love to learn more about your pup and how I can give them the best possible experience. Please feel free to share any details, preferences, or routines! My husband and I both work from home, so there’s almost always someone here to keep your dog company and make sure they’re well cared for throughout the day. We want every dog in our home to feel safe, comfortable, and included - not like they’re simply being “watched.” Our goal is to keep your dog entertained, secure, and happily engaged while they’re with us. We have a big yard that allows the dogs plenty of outdoor space to run around and sun-bathe when they need to. There are different areas in the house that we can section off if your dog needs more quiet and alone time. We have built a safe and trusting environment to accommodate different needs.
“Thank you Kathryn for taking care of my dog and being so flexible with taking him for another week! She’s so good about updating me about boomers day. I really appreciate her for taking care of boomer like he’s her own. My dog and her dog got along very well so that’s a bonus. I will definitely be booking with Kathryn again!!”
“Amy was great! They took excellent care of my dog, providing regular updates and ensuring he was happy and well-exercised. My dog immediately felt comfortable with them, and I returned to a content and well-cared-for pet. Highly recommend!”
“Excellent caretaker. Very communicative keeping me posted around every 2 hour. Very patient and knowledgeable. Clean, wide and safe space for dogs Definitely will leave my dog with her again.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for family and friends since I was a teenager, and animals have always been a big part of my life. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from newborn kittens and puppies to senior animals who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic routines, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have a spacious home with a large backyard and a friendly small dog who loves having new company. I treat every pet I care for like they’re part of the family and understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pets. I’m home most of the day, so your pet will get plenty of attention and won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I typically take my dog out for a walk every few hours for some exercise and fresh air. I also live with my family, so even if I need to step out for an errand, there is usually someone home to keep your pet company. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they’re with me. I have a fenced yard for supervised outdoor time and a friendly dog of my own. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, or crate time if needed. I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away.

She did an amazing job at making my dog Wisconsin feel comfortable and safe. Kept me updated with pictures so it made me feel at ease knowing Wisconsin was in good hands. He had a great time and was very happy while in her care. Definitely will rebooking with Luliia 😁 Thank you so much!
I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Miumiu! From start to finish, the communication was clear, quick, and super friendly. Miumiu was treated like family and came back home happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. It gave me total peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and attentive hands. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pets!
Araceli did amazing with my two pups for a weekend stay. She provided plenty of picture updates throughout the day. She gave us a tour of her whole doggy day care house. We were beyond amazed of how big the space was and all the essentials needed that she had. Her doggy day care is cooled with A/C so we had no worries about our pups overheating in this summer heat. We will definitely be rebooking and would highly recommend Araceli for your pups!
Thank you Suzhen! We’ve had very good experiences with Suzhen boarding our dear pet family. It’s been both easy and convenient. Suzhen sends photo and video images of how our are dogs are doing. We’ve booked Suzhen 4 times and each time everything has gone well! Ken & Tammy
We had such a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! The communication was excellent, and we loved receiving regular updates and pictures while we were away. This was the first time our dog had been watched for two weeks, and we were so happy to see how much fun she was having. She got to play outside, interact with other pets, and truly had a blast! Our sitter was amazing and took such great care of her. We would absolutely recommend her and hope to use her again in the future! 🐾
Caihua was amazing! Not only was her location incredibly convenient for us, but she also took such wonderful care of Zoe. She kept me updated throughout Zoe's stay, which gave me so much peace of mind and made being away from Zoe much easier. I appreciated her kindness, communication, and the love she showed Zoe. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!
Alice (Junyi) watched our two husky/shepherd mixes for two weeks while we traveled internationally. One of our pups had an injury scare the day before we left. Alice was accommodating, caring, and communicative, consistently sending us videos, pictures, and status updates multiple times per day to help us feel comfortable with his recovery. Both pups seemed to have a great time playing in the backyard, going on walks, and playing fetch, and overall seemed very comfortable and well cared for. We look forward to having Alice watch the pups again in the future!
Tammy is a wonderful sitter and my dog loves her! I booked a sitting very far ahead of time with many special requests, and she accommodated them all. She also communicated well before and during the sitting. She was very attentive to Teddy, and sent us many pictures and videos of him enjoying himself and even snuggling in someone's lap. I highly recommend booking with Tammy (:
We recently boarded our dog with Xueqing for a 2nd time and can't thank her enough for the incredible care she provided to Morgan. Leaving a pet is always stressful, but she treats Morgan like family. The communication was outstanding; we received daily videos and comprehensive reports on Morgan's new friendships, habits, and behavior- this level of transparency and genuine care is rare. Thank you for looking after our floof so well!
Lu is truly one of the best sitters we have ever had. She took such incredible care of my dog, and treated him like part of her own family. She has a beautiful home with a big grassy yard where my boy was able to run around freely, play ball, and enjoy tug-of-war with her. It made me so happy knowing he had so much space and attention while we were away. My boy is normally a very picky eater and often doesn’t finish his meals, but ever since he came back from staying with Lu, his appetite has been amazing. He has been eating so well, which tells me he felt comfortable, relaxed, and truly happy during his stay. Lu kept us updated, spent quality time playing and interacting with him, and clearly has a natural love for dogs. You can tell she really cares about every pet she watches. I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with her, and I would trust her again anytime. Highly, highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Walnut on Rover is $55.5 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 10,360 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Walnut. 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.
94% of Walnut 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 Walnut 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 Walnut 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 Walnut.
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 Walnut 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.
