“Cymantha was wonderful with my Jeda while we were gone! She made sure I got updates especially because my dog had previous injuries and needed some special TLC. She truly is a loving warm person who loves dogs and made me feel so comfortable leaving my baby with her. I would definitely leave Jeda with Cymantha for my next trip. Jeda loved being with Cymantha! She was a blessing:)”
About: I have had big dogs my whole life....taking care of them, walking them etc. Because I lost my big girl a year ago, and because of circumstances, I am not able to adopt yet, but would love to walk/take care of yours! I am dedicated to supporting dogs and their pet care needs. I am currently available 24/7 and am looking forward to helping all the owners and dogs! I currently have one rat terrier named Jake who is like 14-15 years old (?) but he gets along with everyone and is non-confrontational ;-)
“Carl was great and Lucy seemed really happy at pick up. I got pictures and updates which was great because she was there for almost 2 weeks and we missed her a lot. We will definitely use Carl again when out of town. Thank you Carl!”
“Tammy and her family provided the perfect home away from home for my anxious dog! My vacation was considerably more relaxing than usual due to Tammy's expert care and frequent status reports and pictures. I'm so grateful I found Tammy!!! :)”
“Sarah and Matt were wonderful sitters! We have a somewhat nervous girl, and they were super understanding of this and were patient with her-- and with me! It was my first time using Rover and Sarah nicely offered a meet and greet to make sure our dogs got along and answered any/all questions I had. She responded very quickly to any messages and sent cute updates throughout our trip. Pup came back looking great and very happy. I would definitely use them again!! Thank you, Sarah & Matt!”
“This was my first time using the Rover app and successfully finding a sitter! I chose Heather as she already had great reviews and repeat clients. My pup baby had an amazing stay with Heather and her husband! He got a lot of love a lot of play time and Heather introduced him to walking as he is still very young and hasn’t tried walking him yet! He now can go up and down our stairs after a stay with Heather….which I truly appreciate him having this new level of independence! I highly recommend Heather”
“Angela was amazing with our dog, Gryffin! This was our first experience with Rover, and she made it all so easy. She shared pictures of Gryf while we were gone, and we could tell he loved staying with her!”
“Juli is so kind and warm and easy to work with! She was so sweet with our young dog Louise and at our meet/greet I was instantly comfortable leaving Louise with Juli in her lovely home and spacious yard. I deeply appreciated all the ways in which Juli expressed care and concern for, first and foremost, keeping Louise safe while in her care. Even though Louise barked and whined in her crate her first night away from home and was not the perfect guest I had hoped she would be, Juli was completely understanding and told me that it was totally normal, it's part of the boarding process, and not to worry at all. Juli is clearly a "dog person" and is someone you can feel totally safe leaving your precious pet with. We won't hesitate to ask Juli to board Louise again!”
“Mac’s stay with Mochi was 10/10! Xi was very responsive, provided wonderful updates, and checked in on dietary concerns before giving any treats. We will absolutely rebook next time we are in the area!”
“Super caring and accommodating. Tiffany sent notes and pictures during Ramble’s stay and allowed me to grab Ramble for a few hours so that I could treat him for a walk and dinner date.”
“Prior to boarding, John and I along with our dogs met up. He responded to all my messages in timely manner. He was very flexible and he sent some pics while we were away. He’s customer service was excellent.”
“I reached out to Brandi because I had a horrible experience with another dog sitter and needed to place my dog in a different home immediately. Brandy was so accommodating and made me feel like my dog would be so safe and loved while I was gone. She was constantly sending me pictures and giving me updates. She even took the time to call me and gave my dog a bath to help calm her down. She truly went above and beyond! I’m so happy we found a trustworthy and kind person to use in the future!”
“Hsiaolei provided Lulu the absolute best attention and care. They were extremely attentive to her needs, taking her on loads of hikes because she is an energetic dog. The photos she sent us during our time away showed Lulu visibly smiling, whether on her pad by the fire or out on a walk. I highly recommend Hsiaolei!”
“Tatiana and Renat took such good care of Chewie!! I really appreciated all the updates and pictures and kind words about Chewie - it's so comforting to know your dog is so loved! Thank you so much! ❤️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - El Verano
Gina and Marcus (and their kids) were awesome with Bean. She got lots of love and play time with them. It was really reassuring to know that bean was being well taken care of while I was away. And knowing that their Buddy (dog) was cool and could teach bean how to be a good dog was a terrific perk. Great communication and just a truly great family.
Carl is simply the best!!! Our 6 year old rescue dog has tons of anxiety and separation anxiety as well. Carl was able to navigate all of Cleo’s issues seamlessly and Cleo truly liked Carl’s calming playful presence. We will be telling all our friends about how amazing Carl was with our Cleo girl. We appreciate Carl more than words could ever say. He made it possible for us to go on a family vacation knowing Cleo was in good hands. And it was fun getting all of Carl’s photo updates too. Thank you sooooooo much Carl for all the TLC you gave Cleo. You are our hero! And Cleo’s too.
Sarah and Matt are experienced dog sitters and they did a great job of looking after my senior dog Pumpkin with his special needs for meds and meals. Pumpkin spent a calm day wandering around the house and garden and going for walks; even more importantly he had a peaceful night. He also got along immediately with their adorable dog Connie; they coexisted quite harmoniously. I'd be very happy to have Pumpkin stay with Sarah and Matt again.
Cristian and his wife were fabulous dog sitters. We know this because when we picked Axel up, he was happy, not at all stressed, and they told us that Axel was a very good boy. Our dog is on his best behavior when content and adequately exercised, so it seems everyone did well. Thanks!
Thank you Evan for taking such good care of Mochi while I went to a wedding in Sonoma for the weekend! Seeing her pictures and knowing she was in good hands made it easy to relax. I appreciate you giving her meds before I picked her up so she wasn’t carsick on the way home.
Jordan and Jeremy are truly the best! We feel so lucky to have found them. They take such great care of our dog, Luna, and their communication is amazing (sending photos and videos all the time). We joke that our dog is at summer camp when she is staying with Jordan & Jeremy — she has so much fun playing in there great backyard and with their adorable dogs & cats. It’s a win win for all!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - El Verano
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in El Verano is $56 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $55 and $61 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,991 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across El Verano. 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.
94% of sitters in El Verano 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 El Verano 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 El Verano.
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 El Verano 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.
