“It was my first time sending Benji with a stranger annd for ann overnight stay! Heather made it extremely comfortable and seamless! She sent periodic pictures throughout his stay and constantly reassured me with updates. She is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and how to provide expert care to them! I would highly recommend Heather and will be utilizing her for future sittings! Thank you Heather 🩷”
“My dog Beau had a great time staying with Jill. She is very warm and loving and took great care of my beloved fur baby. I loved receiving photos during his stay and they have a super safe setup. I could tell Beau was super happy being there which means a lot when you’re away. Would definitely book again!”
“I waited to put in a review and now the third time my 4 pound dog, Ruby has stayed with Lauren and Ben. My little girl goes crazy with excitement when she is walking up to their house. She walks in like it’s her place and has made friends with the resident big dog. Lauren and Ben are kind and send pics daily so I know for sure my little one is loved and part of their family when I need to travel for work. I’ve also seen a big positive change in confidence for Ruby.”
“This was the second time my dog Ollie was boarded at Jamies house. It was for two weeks. I received pictures of Ollie and updates on his well being. Jamie has been prompt in responding to my communications. Ollie was obviously happy, well cared for and took his time leaving their house when I picked him up . I will be using Jamie’s service in the future.”
“Caren was great! My dog seemed very happy there and she seemed to take great care of her. Her house is in a nice neighborhood and my dog’s age got a lot of good walks and visits to the dog park, etc. Would definitely recommend Caren!”
“Hannah was able to take our pup at short notice for a 2 week period and he absolutely loved every second of being in her care. Hannah is super communicative, sends pictures and adapts to any mishaps (we had to have new food delivered which was delayed). It’s such a great environment for pups that love playing. We will definitely be booking Hannah again. THANK YOU.”
“Christina is wonderful! We came home to a happy dog. She sent us picture updates during our dog's stay. We are so happy to have found her! We highly recommend Christina! And we will be booking with her again. ❤️”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals including cats, dogs, chickens, goats, pigs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and the list goes on! I'm comfortable around all animals, and I absolutely adore them all! I go to school full time, but I do not have classes on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. I can be available between classes on Wednesday and Thursday. There's lots of room for flexibility in my schedule. I will follow all instructions the owner provides. I can crate animals, take them on walks, feed, and water them, and keep them entertained throughout the day.
About: I have extensive experience in pet care, including basic training and providing specialized care for senior pets. My attentive approach ensures that each animal feels safe and loved. Im currently Stay at home. I find that I have so much time for my babies to enjoy others company while we are home or on the road visiting furry friends! I ensure a safe environment, maintain routines for feeding and exercise, provide personalized attention, monitor health, and keep the space clean, offering loving care for pets in any setting.
“Had a really good experience with Patricia while we were in out of town. She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and took great care of Bo while we were away. We appreciated the updates and knowing she was being looked after. It made traveling a lot less stressful, and we came home to a happy dog. Would definitely use her and her nice family again!”
“Mackenzie cared for my 12-year-old mystery mutt, Delphine, during what I knew would be some of her final weeks. Delphine is in the late stages of terminal cancer, and her care requires patience, gentleness, and a deep respect for her autonomy and quirks. Mackenzie showed all of that and more. She was completely unfazed by the realities of end-of-life care, managing Delphine’s tumors, helping her up and down stairs, and handling the occasional accident with calm and compassion. Delphine, who is usually wary of new people, seemed genuinely at ease in Mackenzie’s presence. That alone speaks volumes. Mackenzie also sent thoughtful, funny updates that made me feel connected even when I couldn’t be there. I’m so grateful that in this tender time, Delphine had someone who treated her with dignity, care, and kindness. If I couldn’t be by her side, I’m thankful Mackenzie was.”
“Kim was available with very short notice. Both of my dogs were happy and I was provided pictures and a video of them while I was gone. I didn’t have to worry at all about them, it was wonderful. Will definitely rebook again!”
“Michael was great! He’s super friendly and you could tell he really loves dogs. He sent updates/pictures and made me feel at ease while we were gone. We’ll definitely be using him again in the future! Highly recommend !”
“Amanda took wonderful care of our cat, Bootsy, during her 4-night stay. Bootsy is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Amanda was experienced and able to give her shots. Bootsy had her own private room in Amanda’s home, which really helped her feel safe in a new environment. When Bootsy didn’t want to eat her first meal, Amanda kept us in the loop so we could figure out the best way to handle it. Thankfully, she made Bootsy comfortable very quickly, and she was eating again later that same day. We really appreciated all of the photos and videos Amanda sent throughout the stay — it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

About: I have several years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. As a lead kennel technician, I’ve cared for dogs in both daycare and boarding settings, ensuring their safety, health, and well being. My experience includes supervising group play, recognizing canine body language, administering medications, feeding specialized diets, maintaining clean and sanitary environments, and responding calmly in high pressure situations. I’m passionate about providing compassionate care and creating a safe, positive experience for every dog while building trust with both pets and their owners. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I genuinely enjoy. I prioritize making sure every pet receives the attention, exercise, enrichment, and care they need to stay happy and healthy. Whether it’s feeding, administering medications, maintaining a clean environment, or providing playtime and companionship, I understand the importance of consistency and reliability. Caring for animals isn’t just part of my work. it’s something I’m passionate about and committed to every day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while maintaining their normal routine. In my home, pets have access to a large, secure backyard where they can run, play, explore, or simply relax in the sun. I also enjoy taking them on walks through my quiet neighborhood to provide exercise and mental stimulation. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any special routines, while making sure their home is respected and their pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and quality care.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cotati
Jen and family were amazing. Right away I felt comfortable leaving my pups with them. Drop off and pick up was easy and seamless. I was updated with a ton of pictures. My dogs definitely had a great time, getting plenty of love and exercise. Once home they were exhausted! Thank you!!!
I can’t say enough great things about Michael! He and his wife were great from the start. While I was away, they went far above and beyond what I expected -providing regular updates, photos, and thoughtful details that gave me total peace of mind. I will definitely be booking with them again!
This is our second time booking Laura and Gabriel. We know our dog is well cared for and included in the family. Our dog has a neurological condition that makes her very unstable on her feet, mixed with being a top heavy pitbull, she really has a hard time with non carpeted flooring. Laura and Gabriel go above and beyond and put out extra rugs so Lucy can get around the living areas while she's there. We will continue using them when we leave town. Lucy always comes back happy, well cared for, and you can tell she's part of the family when she's there.
Abygail and Kai took great, thoughtful care of our old gal, Kona. We were gone for a little over a week and it was such peace of mind knowing they were with her. Abygail sent regular updates, and pictures and videos -- it was clear Kona felt comfortable with them from the start. They also housesat for us -- more peace of mind! -- and left our house in pristine condition. I would highly recommend these two for petsitting and housesitting needs, and we plan on using them again in the future!
Gavin did a FANTASTIC job watching Buster. Every day, three times per day, he sent me photos of my dog to put my mind at ease. I ended up seriously injuring myself the day of pick up and Gavin was very accommodating in keeping Buster longer as I was in the hospital. I HIGHLY recommend Gavin and will definitely use him again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Cotati on Rover is $46.92 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.
91% of Cotati 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 Cotati 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 Cotati 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 Cotati.
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 Cotati 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.
