“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my dog with a stranger, so I was a little nervous. Randi’s communication was great throughout the whole process and she treated my boy like he was one of her own. She even sent pics and updates during my trip to let me know how he was doing. I highly recommend!”
“We are return customers and we love Giezell and her family! She always takes good care of our dog, treats him as her own. We can rest assured knowing he’s in good hands. We highly recommend Giezell.”
“Jacqueline has a lovely family home and an excellent set up for pet care and amusement. She and her family seemed genuinely interested in Mariah's well being during her short stay. I would definitely use her for my little dog's care in the future.”
“"I wanted to send a huge thank you for taking such amazing care of my dog! I really appreciate you keeping me updated with pics—it made me feel so much better knowing my furry baby was in good hands. You went above and beyond, and I'm so grateful! I can tell my puppy was in good hands just by me picking her up she still went inside her house and said goodbye with a lick to Tasha and that made me feel comfortable. I will so recommend her and I will be coming back to her soon. Thank you 😊”
“This was the first time I boarded my (75lb) dog at someone’s home and I was terrified. From communication exchange, Zia was everything I wanted in a dog sitter but felt we were NOTHING that she would want from a pet in her house. We met for a meet and greet in a park and immediately Milly jumped on her (gleefully) and I thought it was the end. It was only the beginning. Zia interacted with my dog in a warm, reassuring way and projected that to her small kids who also were very easy going. Read her profile. It is exactly who she is and she is more than those words. I felt so comfortable leaving her there in her care- with her animal experience and knowledge, she easily managed the dog and I’m not sure Milly was altogether thrilled to come home after all the attention she received. Zia is a treasure to have on your side to care for your beloved partner pet.”
“I had concerns how my 5 year old rescued German Shepherd would adjust with the extended stay but Reginay handled him very professionally. She shared videos and kept us very informed which helped us extremely so we could enjoy our vacation. We are very glad we found her and know we can take future vacations with our boy being in good hands. Great Job Reginay!!!”
“Sade is great and responded to a last minute request. She was communicative, and she responses very quickly. Her home is organized and clean, and her two fur babies are adorable. Trina stayed with her for one night and was well taken care of. I would come back again, thanks Sade!”

Animals have always been a huge part of my life — they’re not just pets, they’re family. I pride myself on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pets feel comfortable and genuinely cared for. Whether you need daily walks, overnight care, or just someone to keep your furry friend company, I’m here to help — with experience, kindness, and plenty of belly rubs. Let’s make tails wag and hearts happy Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. With over 16 years of experience in pet sitting and dog walking — and a background working in a veterinary clinic — caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I truly love. I’ve shaped my schedule around being there when your pets need me most, whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays.

In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I offer a cozy, clean, and peaceful space where they can relax, play, and enjoy lots of one-on-one attention. I carefully introduce them to the space and tailor everything to their individual needs — whether that means quiet corners, slow-paced walks, or plenty of playtime. No matter the setting, your pet’s well-being is always my top priority.
“Beyond fantastic! Kasandra kept our cocker while we were away for 2 weeks. Not only was he very well cared for—he was actually better than when we left him! He is way calmer and has better manners than he had at drop off. Kasandra gave me some pointers that will help me a lot with him at home. This gal is a dog whisperer!! I could not be more grateful. Thank you Kasandra!”
“Negin helped us out with a last minute booking and it worked out wonderfully! She is prompt and thoughtful and most importantly, took great care of our little dog! We are so grateful to have found her. Highly recommended!”
“Erica was amazing with my puppy. She made sure and sent me pics n kept me updated so that I knew Kitana was being well taken care of. She was also very flexible with me updating drop of n pick up and even let me extend her stay for another night. I will be using Erica as my permanent pet sitter.”
“Cedric & his family are so wonderful with my high energy girl & make her feel at home! He was able to help me out after I had someone cancel last minute & he’s always so communicative & helpful. I always know my Mila is in great, safe hands while under his care.”
“I wasn't sure my dog Max would want to come back home after spending time with Mayra and all the beings in her warm and comforting home. Her kind and gentle nature put us all at ease.”
“Melissa was such a wonderful sitter for my pup! From the start, I felt at ease knowing she was in good hands. I loved receiving daily updates with photos and videos. It made me so happy to see her tail wagging, going on walks, and playing. It was clear she was not only well cared for but also genuinely enjoying her time. I would absolutely book with Melissa again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter who is both reliable and caring!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Winters
As always, Christina is the picture of professionalism and kindness. Our particularly suspicious dog warms up to her more quickly than any dog sitter we’ve ever had - that always makes me feel so good. And she’s very thoughtful about timing walks with weather, dog triggers, etc. Our house is always exactly as we left it, maybe cleaner?! Anyway, Christina is incredible and I’d book her every time we left town if I could ❤️
Christina is the best! We were looking for a needle in a haystack: a home with no kids or other pets where our “little old lady” husky could spend 21 days . . . oh, and we needed to book it with less than a month’s notice due to our prior plans having fallen through! Christina came to our rescue - she took such great care of Luna and gave us so much peace of mind with her amazing communication and attention to detail! We recommend her 100% and look forward to booking with her again in the future. Thank you so much, Christina!!
I’m never sure how much to believe online reviews, but in Samantha’s case the praise is legit. Providing a safe, healthful, loving refuge for companion animals is her profession and passion. I’m really pleased to have found someone who I trust to take care of my dog Bug, whether at their place or mine. I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for loving, professional pet -sitting or boarding.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Winters
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Winters is $42 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $85 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,357 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Winters. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in Winters can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Winters 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 Winters.
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 Winters 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.
