“I can't say enough great things about Rebecca and Donald! They helped out in an emergency where I was already out of town and blessed our pup with so much love and care. Mutilple updates daily and made him feel right at home and helped put me at ease knowing he was in such good and loving hands. I would happily book them anytime in the future, absolute 10/10 people ❤️”
“Martha is such a sweetheart! She genuinely cares and takes her responsibility seriously. She took care of our 2-month-old kitten, and it was our first time having a cat sitter. She was so patient, caring, and wonderful with cat. Her communication was excellent, and she kept us updated with pictures and messages. I truly appreciate how much she cared for our little kitten. I highly recommend her!”
“Murphy had so much fun staying over with Alex and Fred! We could tell she was very comfortable with Alex and that she’d be in great hands right after our meet and greet. Fred also has a great temperament and was such a sweet buddy for Murph! Alex was communicative, flexible, and very trustworthy. We’re looking forward to having Murphy stay with them again!”
“Jake is consistently great with my dog Mochi. I never have any issues with him from start to finish, and my dog really enjoys her visit every single time. Super grateful for another awesome stay.”
“Thank you so much to Karina for taking care of my pup! She literally treats them like her pets, they sleep on her couch, make friends with other pups. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the comfort and peace of mind it brings knowing that Karina is taking good care of my dogs. Thanks for being so great Karina!”
“This is our first time having a sitter for our baby Maggie. I cried so much the night we dropped Maggie off to Marby. I was so scared and my separation anxiety was through the roof. We met Marby and her husband and they ensured Maggie will be fine. Throughout the 5 days our baby stayed with them, Marby kept us updated, sent us photos and videos. Marby made us feel at ease and I can truly say she treated Maggie as her own. Maggie made friends with their baby Mamba. We are truly thankful and grateful for Marby taking such good care of our baby.”
“She was wonderful and super attentive. My dog enjoyed playing with her son, win, win! She did everything I asked of her to do. Already have her booked for a second visit.”
“Ximena took great care of my dog, Noodles, while my family was on vacation. She has a great backyard, took Noodles to the park for walks, and sent pictures and video updates while we were away so I knew my dog was happy and well taken care of. Noodles felt very comfortable with Ximena and her family. She can be anxious but she settled in easily and had fun playing with Ximena's dog Fluffy. Ximena is easy to talk to and friendly. I will be booking with her again!”
“Our experience with Ms. Jami and her mom was WONDERFUL. Our doggy Yoddah acclimated to her and her welcoming home immediately at our meet and greet. Jami was assuring, VERY nice and accommodating to our extended need for dog sitting! Jami sent pictures and a video showing Yoddah comfortable and happy! Our dog was pampered and enjoyed his stay. We will definitely be rebooking in the near future. We wish we could give 10 ⭐️'s❣️ Highly recommended. -theBookmans”
“Sherry and her husband Andreas took such good care of my baby. He was a little anxious the first night but they were so patient with him. I will definitely use them again. Thank you so much for such a great experience.”
“Ms Laura is always loving and caring with my furry baby! I trust her completely and I’m grateful for the way she cares and tends for my dog! Will book with her over and over! Thank you Miss Laura!”
About: I had a Husky that I cared for for 3 years before I moved away from home. I really miss having a furry buddy around, so I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets, keep them company, play with them, and give them lots of love and attention while you’re away. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule and can make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins. I’m available most weekdays and weekends depending on the booking. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll follow their routine, keep a close eye on them, and give them plenty of attention and love
“Our pups spent the week at Katherines & Johns and had a blast! They went on fun adventures & were so happy. We had no worries & were able to enjoy a remote trip while our dogs were in the best care. Katherine is very caring, professional & kind. Highly recommend!!”
“Michael and Rambo are great! Michael is great with dogs of all energy levels and personalities. Our dog got plenty of playtime and love while there, and we loved the daily photos. We recommend and will use again! Thank you!”
“Definitely a 5-star experience. Corinne was super responsive and answered all my questions that made me feel comfortable to book. I can definitely say this meet was meant to be. This was my first time leaving my pup, Chanel, with someone new - let alone a new place for several days. (She is super friendly, but since always with me, will cry if she sees me leave her.) As soon as we walked up to their home, Chanel was super curious and happy to go inside, greeting them both with such excitement. They both made me feel at ease. Their beautiful home was perfect for her - with a big bed, toys, and a nice and spacious back yard. I loved the several updates and pictures that were sent to me; it brought so much smiles to see Chanel being such a good girl, and being cared for like they did. I also loved the little report card they gave me at the end. I highly recommend Corinne and Louis, and will definitely book with them again if the opportunity allows. Thank you both so much!”
“Andrew took amazing care of Hoa while we traveled for 10 days! He communicated just enough and sent updates with photos letting us know how our pup was doing. We were pleasantly surprised he gave Hoa a bath for us! Truly exceptional care.”
“Our dog LOVES going to Elaine's house and has a great time, and she sends lots of updates so I know my dog is doing great and is happy and comfortable, which definitely eases my mind while I'm traveling.”
“Michelle is the best , she makes my dog Oli feel at home. He loves being over and playing with her doggo. I couldn’t leave Oli with anyone else. She keeps me updated with lovely fun pictures. Thank you Michelle! We really appreciate you.”

“Shannon was absolutely wonderful with Nibbles! She watched her for 9 days in her home, and I’m so happy we found her. Drop-off and pick-up were super easy, and Shannon was very thorough about asking questions beforehand so she could make sure Nibbles was comfortable and knew her routine and preferences. She took such great care of her and made sure she was happy, well-fed, comfortable, and got lots of love and attention. I could tell Nibbles was in really good hands, as I received consistent updates/pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Shannon is such a sweetheart, and I’m extremely happy with the care she gave Nibbles. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future!”

Michelle is an excellent dog sitter and I would definitely use her services again. Michelle’s pup made a sweet little companion for Rosie and I know it helped her anxiety. I highly recommend Michelle if you are looking for a loving, safe place to care for your pup.
Jenny and Joshua took care of my dog for 10 days. I am very happy with the care they provided to my dog and provided daily updates with pictures. My dog received daily walks and returned home happy. I would highly recommend Jenny and Joshua if you need a trustworthy person to care for your dog. I will definitely be a return customer.
Laura was amazing with our two pups! We recommended her services! When we picked up Luna and Jack they seemed calm and not overly energized (mind they are large dogs) which means they were exercised and loved. We will definitely consider her in the future. Thanks Laura!
I’m a returning happy customer, and once again, I had a great experience! Dalila was wonderful with my dog, and I’m grateful for her care and attention. It’s always a relief knowing my dog is in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to booking with her again!
Katherine and John have been amazing at caring for our little fur baby! My partner and I have been caring for Mochi since she was 8 weeks old and this is only our second time leaving our baby with someone else. We were so worried about how she would react and whether she would eat, sleep, and play well. Turns out she did exceptionally well. We received daily pictures and updates about Mochi. Katherine made Mochi look so cute in every picture. Mochi came back to us looking very happy and refreshed. Mochi also came back to us much lighter than which was great because we were trying to help her to lose some weight. Overall, we are so pleased with our experience with Katherine and John. They are exceptional dog sitters and I would book with them over and over again! 100% highly recommend!
Nathaniel did an amazing job taking care of Dino and Frank while we were on vacation for a week. Since we were traveling out of the country, it was especially important to have someone dependable and responsive, and Nathaniel was both. He was very accommodating and available whenever needed. He kept us updated throughout the week and frequently sent photos of our guys, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely use Nathaniel again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to look after their pets. Thanks again, Nathaniel, for taking such great care of Dino and Frank!! 🐾❤️
My fur baby Chika is very skiddish and can be unsociable at times. The moment Chika met Yvie, Chika wagged her tail and went right up to her. Yvie was very calm and patient with Chika. Upon return Chika was not stressed or anxious, she was excited like a lil kid that had a great time at Disneyland and couldn't wait to bark about it. 😊 Thank you Yvie for making my dog feel safe and comfortable, you are the best!! Chika will definitely be returning to your care.
Allison was great with our two dogs! We had another sitter cancel on short notice due to an injury and we are so glad we found her at the right time. She took her time to understand each dog’s needs and was awesome about keeping us updated. I loved the photos, videos, and daily updates. She was great at also teaching them different tricks which was a bonus! We appreciate the love and care she put into caring for our fur babies. Thank you!

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Cota is $42 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $73 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.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
94% of sitters in Cota 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 Cota 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 Cota.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cota. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Cota 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
