“This was our first time using Rover and I’m so glad we did because we found Randy. He took such good care of our senior chihuahua and sent pics every day. It was so comforting to know that Paco was getting all the comforts of home. We will definitely be using Randy in the future and have also referred a couple friends!”

“Amazing Experience with Damaris! Highly Recommend! I couldn't be more grateful for Damaris and the care she gave to my sweet Cavachon, Bella. Bella is a 5-year-old bundle of energy. Damaris went above and beyond! From the moment we met, I could tell she was a genuinely kind and sweet person who loves animals. Bella warmed up to her instantly, and I felt completely at ease leaving her in Damaris's care. Throughout the stay, Damaris kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me such peace of mind. Bella had a blast with her, and I could tell she was in loving hands the whole time.”

“This was our very first time boarding our 14 year old Boston who is nearly fully deaf, has declining vision, and medication needs. We were beyond nervous. I found Rover and it appealed to me because I didn't want her left in a cage most of the day being confused and thinking we'd abandoned her. Ben was fantastic with settling my nerves about leaving her. She was happy when we left and happy when we picked her up. He handled all of her meds and sent us pictures along the way.”

“Lynn seemed to have a similar comfort setting as me, with blankets on the couch and quiet/calmness. She has a large yard on the side that is completely fenced in and my girls LOVED it! She sent me videos and pictures. I could tell my girls were getting the attention and love they needed. Would definitely recommend!”

About: With 15+ years of experience caring for my own fur babies, plus caring for friends’ dogs and cats, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your family member. ❤️🐾 When your fur baby stays with us, they’re not just a guest—they’re part of the family! My goal is to make their stay fun, comfortable, and filled with love. Whether they need playtime, cuddle time, lazy time, or simply some quiet time to decompress, I’ll meet them where they are and give them the attention they need. My husband and I both work from home, and I’m home Monday–Friday, which means your fur baby gets plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. Our home also has a fenced backyard and lots of toys for playtime and exploring. Every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, cared for, and right at home while you’re away. 🐶❤️ ⏰ My husband and I both work from home, and I’m home Monday–Friday, which means your fur baby gets plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day. 🏡 Our home also has a fenced backyard and lots of toys for playtime and exploring.

About: I have been having pets pretty much my whole life. I grew up with two cats and two dogs. I now have 3 dogs and 2 cats now. I love my babies they are my world. I do work full time. I feed my cats twice a day. Once in the morning and then once in the evening. They also get snacks throughout the evening and during the day when I’m not at work. I have a fenced in yard. My cats are inside cats but of course my dogs go in the back yard. I do have bulldogs so they don’t stay out long, it’s too hot for them in the summer. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats myself and they all get along.

“This is my first time using this app to find care for my dog, Sky, and I was truly delighted with Dalia's service. She was very professional and responsive, and Sky loved her from the moment they met. She sent me videos of Sky playing and having fun, and she even let Sky play with her own pet. Sky received loving care with great dedication and attention. I highly recommend her and would definitely leave Sky with her again. I'm very happy with her services.”

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Ama

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 469 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Ama. 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.

97% of sitters in Ama 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 Ama home-away-from-home, 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 Ama.

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 Ama 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 , 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 .

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 LA 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.
