“Gordon and Allison are awesome. They will make you completely at ease with your pets stay. They text updates and pictures regularly and took such good care of Willis. I definitely will be using them from now on.”
“Renee and Chris are very trusted sister. Because my dolls medical condition, I had to be picky to find new sitter not to have multiple other dogs. They only accepted my dogs and no other dogs. Renee made sure to provide the medication and she is very familiar with. They sent us a lot of pictures and video and we were very happy to know how our dogs were doing every day. Renee and Chris are highly recommended and I will ask their availability when we need our dog sitter next time for sure.”
“Cynthia and her family were great dog sitters. I got constant updates and videos/pictures. My dog looked so happy on the walks and being able to spend time outside in their spacious backyard. I felt so comfortable leaving her there for a long weekend and will definitely book with Cynthia again.”
“Sin is a great sitter! Extremely communicative and checks in when needed. My pup can be on the skittish side yet she’s comfortable in Sin’s care. Definitely recommend Sin!”
“Marie was amazing with Kilo! She sent frequent photo updates and made me feel totally at ease while I was away. It was clear she truly cared for him, and Kilo absolutely loved her. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend!”
“Wonderful people! Super detail oriented on how to care for my fur baby Pico! They kept us updated everyday on how he was doing and I completely trust them. We will be in touch again for when we need a dog sitter again!”
“We received daily videos. It was a rainy weekend, so they couldn’t get out much. My dog was happy in the videos and it seemed like she didn’t want to go home when we picked her up. Since this was our first time using this sitter, we met up beforehand.”
“Henri had a great weekend at Paulina’s! She came out to greet us and then took the leash and introduced Henri to her home-he was so comfortable with her from the start. Our dog has hardly been away from us in his 7 years and I was a little nervous about leaving him with someone new, but I soon realized I had nothing to worry about. Paulina is a very relaxed person and sent updates and adorable photos each day. It made me happy to see him look so at home with her. Don’t let her lack of a backyard discourage you-Henri was happy and tired when we picked him up. We will call on her whenever we need a dog sitter for when we visit our daughter in SF. Paulina was an absolute lifesaver and we are so happy to have found her!”
“Julley was absolutely amazing! She was super communicative from the get-go and she pays attention to details. Marvel is usually picky about who she likes but she formed a connection with Julley instantly. Julley went the extra mile to take care of Marvel and I felt so comfortable having my fur baby in her hands. Julley was very responsive with her messages and pictures. She is a very capable sitter and was able to follow all my care instructions. We definitely look forward to booking with Julley again!”
“Mimi and Wilson took amazing care of our Kami! They sent daily updates with cute photos and shared the sweetest little stories about her day and the fun adventures they took her on. They were super responsive throughout our trip. When Kami wasn't eating well, they went the extra mile by hand-feeding her and made sure she was never left alone. The care and attention they showed was truly amazing; you could tell they truly enjoyed spending time with her, and Kami obviously loved being with them too! Their dedication gave us total peace of mind during our vacation. I couldn't ask for better, more caring sitters and would book with them again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”

“We had a wonderful experience with Tara! Tara was great with our dog, Koda, during a week long stay over the holidays. She was clearly caring and responsible, and followed all of the instructions we provided. Tara was also very communicative throughout the stay and regularly shared photo updates, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely love to have Koda stay with her again.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 8 years and am also a proud dog parent to two amazing pups of my own. Caring for them every day has taught me how important it is to provide love, patience, exercise, and a consistent routine. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to their usual schedule, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. Since I care for my own two dogs every day, I’m already used to planning my routine around walks, feeding, playtime, and potty breaks. Whether your pet needs a quick visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I’ll do my best to accommodate their routine and make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any special requests to help them feel at home. I’ll provide plenty of love, exercise, playtime, and regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in caring hands.
“David was great! He clearly cared for dog and our needs to make us comfortable. His home was cozy and quiet which for our dog who is anxious was a blessing to keeping her happy and settled. Our dog is on medication and David took care of this for us with no concerns or issues. We also happened to have a very hectic schedule, David was flexible and easy to coordinate with which really made the process so much easier! Thanks, David!”

Yvonne was great, helped us out with a last minute stay for our dog and accommodated our drop off and pick up needs. Great communication throughout and we really appreciated the updates and our dog seemed to be right at home with Yvonne and her husband. Will definitely enlist her help looking after our dog again.
Drew & Gregg were amazing! They were able to accommodate a last minute arrangement for my dog Oaklyn. Drew was very thorough beforehand since we didn’t have time to do a meet & greet and let me know everything about how the stay would go for Oaklyn. They took great care and took her on lots of walks and kept me updated with photos and videos while I was away. I am so thankful to have met them & hope to request them again in the future for needed doggy-sitters :)
Maizie had a great time staying with Kami—long walks and lots of snuggles on the couch—and we appreciated the photos and updates Kami sent us throughout the stay! She was also willing to drop Maizie back off at our house and those logistics worked seamlessly. Thanks Kami!
Sumera was amazing. Really great dog instincts and very experienced with rescue dogs. She treated our rescue dog Kewpie like her own and even provided training tips when we asked for them (smaller crate, high reward treats, ways to reduce the resource guarding, etc) ! The daily pics and videos with descriptive updates helped us stay in touch and feel comfortable during our travels. Would have her watch kewpie again!
Whitney was an absolute lifesaver! After our main sitter had to cancel a week before our trip due to a family emergency, we reached out to Whitney since she lives nearby. She was incredibly responsive, reliable, and followed our agreement perfectly. Before our trip, we visited her home for an introduction; her space was immaculately clean, and she warmly answered all of our questions. Throughout our week-long vacation, she sent daily photo updates and was wonderfully attentive to our dog. Whitney is honest, detailed, caring, and sweet. Judging by how happy our dog was when we returned, he clearly had an amazing time. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
Shoutout to Cynthia and her family for doing such an amazing job of watching Maverick while we were away on vacation. It was like a vacation for our pup with all of the walks, attention and playtime he got throughout the week. They treated Maverick like one of their own dogs. We also got so many videos and photos every single day and kept us feeling close to our dog while we’re away. Thank you again, Cynthia! We shall be back soon for boarding and doggy daycare.
Luke is a fantastic dog handler. For the 12 days our dog stayed with him, everyday has dog park, long walks, and/or beach outings. Luke also sent updates and pictures/videos daily that gave us a peace of mind. His dogs are well behaved and our teenager learned from them. Overall, we couldn’t ask for more for a fantastic experience with Luke. He truly understands dog language and knows the best way to interact with them and tend to their needs.
Velina was amazing, and we will definitely rebook in the future. She set up a meeting in advance and our 2 frenchies were immediately smitten with her and her home. When we arrived for drop off, they couldn’t contain their excitement and pulled us right to her house. One of our dogs injured his back right before our vacation, and Velina took great care to administer his meds and keep his movement restricted. Our pups loved her sunny garden and toys, and she sent lots of pictures during their stay. Our dogs loved her and she made us feel at ease knowing they were in great hands while we were away!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Colma
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Colma on Rover is $45 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,529 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.
