“Aja was amazing! She was attentive to all the details- sent photos daily of our fuzzy babies. Aja is punctual, great communicator and outstanding pet sitter. I would give her 5 out of 5 in every way. Plan to use Aja for all of our animal care needs!! Thank you & Mom so much!!”
“I can’t say enough about the complete, loving care Randy provided my “Little Girl” (13 yo Yorkie). He kept her from Fri morning through Sunday evening, provided great pics and videos. This was only her second time on staying with a stranger - and she never missed a beat. She came back home calm and happy. Randy is her new home away from home.”
“They were great and very accommodating. My return flight ended up being delayed by like 2 hours and they were very gracious about the situation. I will definitely be using Stacy again!!”
“Both Ruby & Dexter enjoyed the time with Demaris and family. The home and garden/yard are lovely plus both of my dogs got a lot of attention and pampering. I hate to admit it, my dogs looked and smelled better when I picked them up than when I dropped them off 😆”
“Melissa is the best! She gets five stars and we will definitely board with her again! From our first call, to the meet and greet, she took the time to really get to know us and our dogs needs and made the whole process easy . Our dogs loved her immediately. She has a big house, a big yard, and took them on regular walks. We got daily photos and updates and her communication was prompt, responsive, and accommodating. Melissa is a gem!”
“Elizabeth is so sweet and took great care of Mochi! She updated us every day with pics and videos, was super communicative, and was so flexible with our pick up and drop off- I definitely recommend her and look forward to booking her again! Such a relief to know we have someone we can trust with our pup when we go away :)”
“My dogs were spoiled during my time away! I received daily updates and pictures/videos to prove they had a great time! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
“Amy was so sweet. She kept me informed, sent me photos and videos, and replied to all my messages quickly. I was able to enjoy my vacation without having to worry at all about my dog. I definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for peace of mind while you’re away.”
“Ben was the best. He upgraded me daily and send pics too. My dog looked happy in all the pictures lol. I’m glad I found him and he accepted me in short notice. I’m using him again.”
“We had never had to board our doggie girls before and I was nervous. Lynn sent daily videos so that I could see my girls adjusting comfortably and happily! The updates helped me enjoy our trip without worry. Her yard was spacious and clean-I told my husband they would never want to leave ‘camp’😁 Lynn will be our first choice whenever we need to leave our girls with someone.”
“Mike was super awesome - We had great coordination when working out drop off / pick up time - He took care of Duke very well with tailored food which he prepared. I will highly recommend Mike”
“Katherine was amazing with my girl. She took great care of her and provided feedback about how she was doing and some pictures throughout, which gave me some peace of mind so I was able to enjoy my trip. Thank you! My little old lady baby came home happy and tired. I could tell she really enjoyed her time with them and I would 100% recommend.”
“Jon was absolutely amazing with our pups.. he would send photos on a daily in addition to providing our old man his meds. We understand that our younger pup has some issues getting along with others but he was able to keep the peace with all the pups and that's a bit of a feat because she can be ALOT. Our littles were happy to come home but looked just as they did when we left them, plump and happy! We will absolutely be using Jon again for our next vacation!!”
“Julia is a fantastic dog sitter. We felt SO comfortable leaving our dog with her. She has two dogs of her own so she very clearly “gets it” and she went above and beyond to make us feel like Duke was in good hands.”
“Liz was able to watch our kitty on short notice for the holidays. Love how well she kept us updated and sent lots of picture to give us peace of mind our fur baby was in good hands. Highly recommend Liz!!”
“Mary was amazing!! She was so easy to contact and she sent pictures and updates about my dog Max that stayed with her. He seemed to have a great time and he got along with her dog as well. Will definitely contact her again! 😊”
“Madison was great with taking care of our dog! Perfect communication, great updates, and we felt at ease knowing our sweet dog was being taken care of. We highly recommend Madison! She is great!!”
“Iryna is fantastic. I could tell immediately that she and her family love animals. Her pup was super sweet when we arrived, so that was a bonus. This was our first time booking with Iryna, which I can find a little stressful. I had nothing to worry about bc she put me at ease immediately. She had great communication throughout the entire stay and kept us updated with plenty of pictures. She noticed a wound on our pup that we weren’t aware of, cleaned and treated it, and let us know right away. We also had a last minute medication request for a separate issue, and she was incredibly accommodating without hesitation. It was clear that she cared for our guy like he was her own. We would absolutely book with Iryna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and reliable sitter. - Diana (and Roy)”
“Chayanne was great with my best friend Phil. He came home happy and healthy and appropriately tired. She was super flexible with my schedule changes and a good communicator. Recommend!”
“Regina was incredible! She watched our 2 dogs during our wedding, and was so sweet to them. She even drove them to our first look so they could participate- really above and beyond! We will definitely seek Regina’s help again with our dogs! Thanks again, Regina!”

Siraaj treated my pup like she was her own. It’s clear she really cares about providing quality care and attention to the dogs that she sits. She consistently sent video and picture updates throughout my dog’s stay. Definitely will be requesting her next time I need a pet sitter.
We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care our dog received! We needed a sitter at the last minute, and they were incredibly accommodating and welcoming. From the moment we dropped our dog off, we knew they were in great hands. She kept us updated throughout the stay, and it was clear our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing we could enjoy our trip without worrying. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and trustworthy to care for your pet, we highly recommend them. We’ll definitely be booking with them again in the future!
Julia is the absolute best! With very short notice, she was willing to take in my dog for a medical emergency and cared for her with above and beyond being an understatement. I recommend her for the care of your dogs. She sends photos, gives updates, asks questions, and truly loves them! Such a terrific person all around.
Beth was a great sitter. She agreed to a last minute dog sit after a quick "meet and greet". I was happy to have the meet and greet, since I had cautioned her that our 86 pound puppy was very, very, energetic and loved to jump on people. After meting Hank, she accepted the challenge. Hank came back from the 2 night stay happy and tired. Charlie, Beth's small dog, was a great playmate for Hank. I will be using Beth again
Parnay was absolutely amazing with my pug, Zeke. From the moment we connected, it was clear how caring, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful he is with animals. Zeke was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Parnay kept me updated, treated Zeke like his own, and went above and beyond to make sure all of Zeke’s needs were met. It’s obvious he has a natural way with dogs and truly understands their routines and personalities. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust Parnay again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and exceptional pet caregiver. Thank you, Parnay, for taking such great care of Zeke! 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Elmwood on Rover is $32.19 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 497 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Elmwood. 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.
96% of Elmwood 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 Elmwood 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 Elmwood 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 Elmwood.
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 Elmwood 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 LA 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.
