“Angelica was such a blessing to me and my little dog during this whole process. I had my worries as a first time use of this type of service as I've never left my dog with anyone outside of a few family members but my dog felt right at home with Angelica. Regular updates and pictures helped out my mind at ease in such a short period of time while I was out of state on business. I would highly recommend Angelica as an experienced sitter. She showed Sundae a lot of love and already made herself a second home and a friend for life. Will 100% call on her services again in the future.”
“We were so happy to find Adrienne! She kept us updated throughout Zippy’s stay and we could tell that Zippy was very well cared for and given lots of love and attention. It’s so nice to have someone to rely on who loves dogs and treats her guests like one of her own. Thanks Adrienne!”
“Haru’s 3rd time with Albina and I can say she’s very comfortable with her! She’s very patient with Haru, very responsive and accommodating with us and just really nice and kind! We definitely recommend her and will surely see her again soon!”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about the incredible care my senior dog received from Rika! At 16 years old, blind, deaf, and struggling with mobility and severe nighttime anxiety, my dog needed a lot of special attention. Rika was a total angel, truly heaven-sent, and made my dog feel comfortable and safe throughout my chaotic move. Her compassion and dedication were extraordinary. She adapted to my dog’s routine seamlessly, providing constant updates with photos and videos that put my mind at ease. Knowing my dog was in such caring and capable hands was a huge relief. I highly recommend Rika to anyone who wants their pet to be treated like family with the utmost love and care!”
“Jing was wonderful with Melon. She took very good care of Melon and took her on several walks a day. Jing sent me updates throughout the day and I received lots of pictures. I highly recommend!!!”
“Lisa and her family were wonderful! She kept us posted with pictures every day and was very accommodating when our dog was a little shy around the other dogs. We will definitely be back!”
“Karen clearly loves animals. Our dog, Bailey, was easily incorporated into the household with photos taken, exercised and played with. We would use her again.”
“Elva was so amazing with our babies! She kept us updated with all the fun they were having without us ever needing to check in. Loved that she was just a natural at noticing all our dogs funny quirks and enjoyed their company. Appreciate you Elva!!”
“Micheal was great and accommodating with our changing of times and last minute booking. Bonita was a little nervous but she came home super chill and happy. We received super cute photos too.”
“Janice and her family took Goldie in swiftly and safely and made her feel comfortable for her night away from home. She sent plenty of pics and updates and made pick up and drop off super easy.”
“Bill and his family took amazing care of my dog. My dog has a lot of energy but I can tell they spent a lot of time with him and he enjoyed his time playing in their yard. I would definitely recommend and request for him to watch my dog again.”
“Ana and Mitchell were incredibly caring with Sophie. I needed a last-minute sitter for Sophie, who isn’t used to being home alone yet at 5 months, and they were amazing. What I love about them is that someone is always home and they only take one dog at a time. They were quick to schedule a meet-and-greet and were very welcoming. Sophie got to meet their dog, Ellie, and they got along instantly. Ana and Mitchell were flexible, accommodating, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure Sophie’s needs were met. We set up a short doggy date for a couple of hours, and it went perfectly- Sophie didn’t even notice we had left! Since leaving Sophie is new for us, we appreciated the frequent updates and their respect for her schedule. She came home happy and content, and it was clear she had a great time. Sophie will definitely be back soon. We even forgot a couple of things at their house and stopped by later, and Sophie was eager to go back inside to Ana and Mitchell’s home- showing just how comfortable she feels there.”
“Thank you for taking care of Code once again! We are so thankful for Sherice, Kelly and family for looking after Code on short notice. He was so happy and truly enjoyed the company and warmth of their home. We look forward to having him visit again soon.”
“Victoria, Herb and Bella gave our pup Bruce the perfect home away from home for the weekend. We will absolutely book with them again in the future. Victoria sent us lots of photos and videos of the dogs playing together, hiking, and hanging out. Our boy had a huge goofy smile on his face in every picture. She shared lots of updates about how he was doing and really put us at ease. We could tell she was caring for him as if he was her own. Couldn’t ask for a better experience.”
“I was searching all over for the best pet care provider I could find and I found Ali on Rover! She was amazing! She took pictures every day and sent me updates every day. My little Cece was so happy over there that when she came home, I think she already missed her! I would absolutely use Ali again. I highly recommend her for her professional attitude and her loving heart. She took the best care of my little baby that anyone ever could have! Thank you, Ali!!!!!!🐾💖🐾”
“Thanks for taking amazing care of Zelda!! We know she gets so much love and attention at your home with time to sun in the backyard! We look forward to booking Zelda’s next stay with you. ☀️🐾🥰”
“Lifesaver. Not only was our flight delayed for 2 days and Loretta was awesome and so understanding and flexible about it…but she had to evacuate with our dogs due to the recent fires/winds. She took care of our dogs like they were her own and updated us regularly. I can’t express how grateful I am. It was such a difficult situation and we didn’t have to worry at all about our dogs. She is our go-to for sure! No doubt about it! Thank you Loretta!!!”
“Stephanie was wonderful with our girl!! ❤️ She sent updates and pictures during her stay which melted our hearts!! We would definitely recommend Stephanie to watch your pet and will board with her again in the future. :)”
“We have booked Cathy and Andres repeatedly to look after our Billie and every time we can always rely on frequent updates, quick contact if any issues arise, and great/thoughtful care of our pup. It always feels good to have trustworthy care!”

Camille and family are amazing!! They took great care of Ruby, our rescue pup. Ruby was well cared for…exercise, other dog friends, play time and lots of TLC. Photos and videos were sent daily. I did not fret or worry while Ruby was there. Your pup will be well cared for and loved with Camille. Camille gets a 5 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ rating from us and Ruby.
Lijuan is such a sweet person. She took really great care of our dog, Cooper. She gave us constant updates and pictures which was so reassuring. I could tell that she really cared about cooper and wanted to make sure he felt comfortable and also had fun. I highly recommend choosing her!
’ve used Ivanka twice now and she has been great with my senior dog. We did a doggy daycare trial run before boarding, and when we arrived for boarding, he walked into her house like he owned the place. He seems to be really comfortable around her and her dog, which is amazing because my dog doesn’t always get along with others. My dog is high maintenance because he has a lot of medication, treatments, and personality quirks, but she handled them with ease and followed all of my instructions. We also got photos for most of the days we were gone. We would use her again in a heartbeat.
William was absolutely patient & super understanding with my dog Zoey. She was recently adopted & I unfortunately had to leave her for a week due to family passing away. With minimum information I had on her he still took her in and watched her for the week I had to fly out. Will definitely book with him again if I ever need my dog taken care of again
Our Lea loves Dodonna and her family. She is a very skittish dog and would not let anyone approach her unless she feels safe. By day 2, Lea was so comfortable that she got on the bed on her own and rolls around like she owns the place. That is a testament to how loving they are to dogs, thus our sensitive girl feels safe with them. They even cooked fresh food for Lea to ensure she eats all her meals. Dodonna was also very responsive and sent updates, pictures, and videos daily. We would not board Lea withy anyone else as Dodonna is the only one that gives us the peace of mind when we are away from our baby girl. Honestly couldn’t recommend them enough!
Albane took wonderful care of our chihuahua Romeo during his boarding stay. She sent regular updates and photos the whole time, which made it so easy to relax while we were away. When we picked Romeo up he was happy and clearly well cared for. We'd book with Albane again in a heartbeat!
Katheryn was so great with Biscuit! Super sweet and took good care of him. She has lots of space for dogs to roam around and play. Her dog is also very sweet and relaxed. She sent me pictures through my time away from Biscuit, which made me really comfortable. We even had a play date to make sure Biscuit would be a good fit. She always responded to my messages in a timely manner. I will definitely let Biscuit come over again! Thank you Katheryn!
Hadia was amazing, taking care of our Annabelle for 2 weeks while we were out of town. We could not have found a more caring, attentive sitter. She sent over many photos and updates, took her on multiple walks everyday, and was very easy to communicate with. Annabelle came home healthy, well-rested, calm, and even better on leash! Thank you Hadia!
Noemi took such good care of Oden! I was away for almost 3 weeks which was the longest I've ever been away from my baby. She calmed any nerves I had and sent me photos almost everyday. I chose Noemi because I knew Oden would love to be with a toddler and other dog buddies and knew he would get tons of snuggles and love because not only is Noemi a stay at home mom, but there are other dog loving and doting family members there! Oden loved watching Bluey with Noemi's daughter and playing with Bonnie. I wouldn't hesitate to book Noemi again and give her dog services an A+++++
Great experience! She took such great care of Ziggy and kept us updated with lots of pictures. Ziggy usually takes a little while to warm up in a new environment and people, but she felt right at home almost immediately during the meet up it was obvious she felt safe and happy. We’ve already booked with her again for next week. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Altadena on Rover is $64.38 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 9,762 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Altadena. 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 Altadena 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 Altadena 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 Altadena 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 Altadena.
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 Altadena 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.
