“Boba’s first time staying with Kazu and Yuko was awesome! Communication was great and consistent. They provided daily pics/videos and I can tell they gave him a lot of attention during his stay. He came home tired and happy :) Will gladly bring him back for another stay. Thank you!”
“Wei took very good care of our pup! We had to board him for a week and she shared updates, photos and videos while we were away. She administered medication for his apparent allergies and we got him back in very good shape. She has a nice and big backyard and I could tell how happy our dog was digging around it :) Would definitely board with her again!”
“Maria was great. Really kind, caring, communicative, and she did great with my dog who is sometimes difficult. Thank you Maria, I will definitely contact you again for dog-sitting in the future.”
“I’m so glad that I found Irene! The care and communication she provides gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She provided frequent photos and updates of how my doggo was doing. When I came to pick up Ollie, he seems to have already grown attached to Irene and Sean. Will definitely book again!”
“Alvin and his family were wonderful with Oatley. He was very considerate with her, even sharing his own pup’s food and products. Sterling, his pup, was adorable. Our pups seemed to come out of it as friends. Alvin was very responsive, messaging right away. Shared many cute pictures and updates throughout my Oatley’s stay. My pup definitely was in great hands, which took away both mine and Oatley’s anxieties. Would love for her to stay with them again!”
“I had such a pleasant experience with Allison & Gordon! Not only did I feel comfortable from the moment I meant them, Darla was as equally at ease. They have a great system in place for making sure your dog feels at home. Perfect size yard for your furry friends and all kinds of sunny spots my dog loved to seek out. I would highly recommend them to anyone. ”
“Tina was absolutely wonderful with Marcos! From the very first message she was punctual and easy to coordinate with, always confirming drop-off and pick-up times without any hassle. She clearly paid close attention to his sleeping habits and made sure he had a cozy, comfortable spot to settle in for the night. She also followed our written instructions carefully, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. On top of that, you can just tell Tina knows a lot about dogs — she was attentive, patient, and genuinely cared for Marcos like her own. She sent thoughtful updates and photos throughout the stay, including a fun outing to Dolores Park, and Marcos looked completely at ease and happy in every picture. Communication was warm and consistent from start to finish. We felt so comfortable leaving Marcos with her and would absolutely book again. Thank you, Tina, for taking such great care of our baby!”
“Savannah had a great time with Lori and Hank running around Lori's back yard. Lori was able to accommodate us last minute and I was a little nervous not having done a meet-and-great, but things worked out really well and I shouldn't have worried at all! Lori was great.”
“Maggie and Carlo took great care of our dog, Donut! They took him to run errands and out to the beach and sent over tons of pictures, would definitely use them again.”
“My pup had a great overnight stay at Julie's! Pick up and drop off was very smooth and she was a great communicator/quick responses. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Cesar took such great care of our puppy and was super patient and flexible with our changing travel plans. Thank you for making our first trip away from the pup a lovely one.”
“This was my first time leaving my pup with Brandon and I’m so glad I did. He came very highly recommended and I felt completely confident and comfortable knowing Brandon is so good at what he does and I definitely appreciate the frequent pics/updates. Thank you Brandon for taking care of my baby! ??”
“I was fortunate that Bo agreed to watch my 8 month old puppy with only a couple days' notice. He sent daily updates with photos, has a nice indoor and outdoor area, and was flexible about the dropoff and pickup times. Bo's calm demeanor seemed to put my dog at ease, whereas she's normally a bit shy and timid around humans. When I picked her up, it was like I had been gone for a couple hours instead of a couple days. Her manners, energy level, and digestion quickly fell back into her normal routine.”
“Christine was a wonderful dog sitter! She was flexible, always great at communicating, and you can tell she genuinely just loves dog (and has an awesome pup herself). Though I hate leaving my dog, she made me feel very comfortable about being away from him and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Thanks for the great care you provided to Taz!”
“Karla took amazing care of my pup! She was so thoughtful, asking what he needed during his stay and sending updates so I knew everything was going great. I really appreciate her responsiveness and the wonderful care she gave my furchild. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Stephen and family is amazing every time my pups have been there. I get videos and pictures with updates on how all my dogs are. The whole family treats my three pups just as their own family. I even had a toy come back home because one my dogs loved the penguin so much. Also I’m super happy how interactive they are with my dogs playing, loving and cuddling. I Highly recommend Stephen. Thank you !!”

The best stay! I felt so confident in leaving Bagel at Celina and Mary’s! They took care of my pup so nicely, sent pictures and video every day, and have two wonderful backyards to accommodate high energy dogs like ours. Her son spent time with my dog as well, and got her energy out. We picked her up and they said they could host her for 20 more days 😂👏🏻
Annie & Will are amazing sitters! They truly treated my dog like he was part of the family. I could tell that they really cared and put in a lot of effort to make sure he was well taken care of from daily walks, to cuddles, to engagement and training. Communication was excellent, they let me know exactly what to expect and they constantly sent me videos and pictures of my dog to keep me updated on how he was doing. Highly recommend them and I will definitely seek them out for dog sitting again in the future!
Guidi has been a very thoughtful caregiver. Our dog has diabetes and Guidi has given her an insulin shots twice a day. She’s easy to communicate and has sent me a lot of pictures and videos to show how my dog is doing. Guidi is wonderful and we’d like to work with her again in the near future.
I chose Valentina as my sitter and I wouldn’t choose anyone else over her again! She was very flexible and accommodating with me and kept me constantly updated on how things were going. She was very well experienced and treated my pup with the utmost patience and care! Would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter in the San Francisco area!
Yuri was responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up due to travel schedule. He and his family were very kind and worked to make our dog comfortable. They made it very easy for us to attend an important family event without any worries. Would definitely rebook with them!
Julie and her husband were absolutely amazing with our pup! They sent regular updates and he seemed very relaxed and comfortable. He started to get sick while he was with them and they were so attentive and sending regular updates and offered to take him to the vet and we’re flexible with drop off until we were home to make sure he wouldn’t be alone. Can’t thank them enough for taking such good care of him and will definitely book with them in future!
We couldn't be happier with the care our dogs, Tofu and Lily, received! We look forward to getting the daily updates and photos—they gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Knowing Tofu and Lily were in such caring and capable hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups, and we're so grateful. We would happily book again and highly recommend Gordon, Allison and their kids!
Mimi and Wilson took extraordinary care of Brahmi during his stay with them. We felt completely confident he was in good hands the entire time. Brahmi felt completely at home and enjoyed lovely walks and maintained his healthy appetite. We really appreciated the check-in texts and photos that they sent and the extra special care and love Mimi and Wilson gave to Brahmi to make him feel comfortable and loved.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Colma on Rover is $45.51 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,491 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Colma. 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.
92% of Colma 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 Colma 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 Colma 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 Colma.
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 Colma 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.
