“Ashton and Jay are amazing!! It was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. They sent me photo updates throughout Truffles stay and were very communicative. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Camille was so lovely - had the best experience! Her communication was excellent and she sent the most heartwarming updates and photos during my trip. My pup seemed to have the best time. Would absolutely recommend and will rebook for future trips! Thank you Camille!”
“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“Hershey had a wonderful time staying with Nayira and her family! We were updated daily with her well being and all the pics showed all smiles. Would reach out again for future sitting needs as I am happy with the care, communication, and enrichment our Hershey received during our time away.”
“Barbara is always warm and an absolute amazing boarder and daycare provider! She has watched Raffle numerous times, the last being for 2 weeks while we were out of country. We NEVER have any concerns while Raffle is is Barbara MORE than competant hands! Thank You Again Barbara... :-)”
“We are so happy we found Ryan and Abby. They watched our 2 rescue dogs and our puppy is terrified of strangers and sometimes screams. Ryan knew to sit down and let him come to him and fed him treats and before you know it, it was a love fest. I couldn’t believe it. Then he showered us with pics and videos and our pups had so much fun! We will definitely be back! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our pups! Highly recommend!!!”
“Joanna was very flexible, kind, and attentive for a 4 night boarding! She sent regular photo updates and took my doggo on many walks despite the rainy holiday week. I’m so grateful that I found her and will definitely take Luca back for my future trips!”
“Christopher was wonderful with my rescue dog who has some separation anxiety. My pup was happy and relaxed when I picked him up and Christopher provided me updates. Would book again.”
“Chan Woo is very timely, responsive and caring. I truly believe my dog was well taken care of and loved during the stay. He sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated the whole time. I felt completely comfortable leaving my little one with him and I would absolutely book with him again.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Laura provided for our dog! She was attentive, kind, and went above and beyond to ensure our dog felt loved and comfortable while we were away. Laura kept us updated with pictures and messages, giving us peace of mind knowing our dog was in great hands. It’s clear she truly loves animals, and we’re so grateful for her exceptional service. Highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Our girl had a WONDERFUL time at Amorn and Adam’s home! This was the most at peace I’ve felt while leaving my dog with a sitter. Their communication was amazing and the photos & videos said it all. She was so happy!”
“If I could leave more than 5 stars for Jolie, I would, she’s gives a genuine love to my babies while we are away. She made sure to give me an update everyday. And she’s very flexible. I can tell that my furry babies had a great time with her and I’m confident and rest assured that my babies are in good hands whenever we are away. She even gave a hug to both of my babies when we picked them up! Thanks Jolie!”
About: One delightful benefit of being single and living alone is I’ve ended up being the person in my friends group who gets to dog sit for all my friends whenever they go out of town. I studied Ecology at University and the love and respect of all animals is very much ingrained in me. I work from home, so to have a justified incentive to leave my desk and go for a walk would be gratefully appreciated. I live in the foothills of Sherman Oaks which makes for easy, safe walks in a very dog friendly neighborhood. I’m also more than happy to hop in the car and take dogs to the park. I’m completely flexible to the desires and recommendations of the owner. I care for dogs as if they were my own. Lots of interaction, affection, a continual supply of fresh water and hopefully a buddy to watch the Premier League with me on the weekend!
“Renata was absolutely amazing with our little pup! She kept us updated throughout the day with photos and videos. Biggie looked like he was having the time of his life and came back happy and chill. Would absolutely hire Renata again and I plan to! ❤️”
“Adrianna was great!! She was super responsive and understanding of our questions. Also sent us videos and pictures of our little girl everyday. Lola had such a fun time!! Considering on bringing Lola for daycare now.”
“Sean was amazing with Theo while we were away for the week. He’s so caring, sent lots of great photos, and even brought him swimming (Theo’s favorite!) and bathed him after! Thank you for caring for our little guy - he can be difficult the first time somewhere new and you were incredible. 🙌🏼”
“Monica is absolutely the best and our pup Sunny loves spending tine with her and her husband! She’s loving, caring and we know our dog is in great hands with her! Thank you Monica for everything and see you soon!!”
“We couldn't be more happy with Julieth and her family. They took care of Eros beyond professional. They were like family to Eros. He definitely had the time of jis life with them. Looots of active exercise, lots of walks, lots of love and lots of pictures and videos and updates. Eros is a big dog and not everyone can handle that, but they loved Eros. And Eros loves them too! Julieth is the right choice for your dog, don't even think about it!”
“Patricia was wonderful with Sherman! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and she sent photos in a timely manner that really put me at ease while he was with her overnight. She went above and beyond by meeting me during her lunch break so I could pick Sherman up, which I really appreciated. Sherman was clearly well cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Patricia again. Highly recommend!”
“Hayley and Arthur are very dedicated, professional and above all, they really love dogs! They understand animals and their needs. They have 2 dogs of their own and they were very attentive to properly introduce them to our pups. Beside having access to a large, safe backyard, our pups were taken for walks and offered plenty of attention. Hayley was so kind to take the time to send us daily updates as well as pictures and videos. It was so obvious that both Vanilla and Riley, our pups, were having a blast in their home! We are grateful to have found them, and we highly recommend their services.❤️”

Jolie watched our dog Gucci for 12 days and I must say it was wonderful! Jolie and Nicole took great care of Gucci, took her on neighborhood walks, played with her and sent daily updates with pictures and videos. When I picked up Gucci I could tell she was happy and in a loving, responsible home while we were away. They exceeded my expectations! I will definitely call on them again for future boardings. Thank you Jolie and Nicole!
Melissa and Chris took wonderful care of my senior dog for a week while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful. They were caring and attentive the whole time, and even took him to a vet appointment and picked him up for the handover. My dog can be skittish with new people, but it was clear he felt completely comfortable with them and had a great time. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, loving pet care!
Rachel is passionate about dogs and has put a lot of thought and effort into making her home a place that visiting dogs will enjoy. It is a plus that she works from home. We left our dog Lola with her for 4 nights, and knew she would be well cared for. Rachel gave her a lot of attention, and Lola got along just fine with her two adorable Yorkies. Rachel followed our instructions and sent us photos and updates, and is just a really sweet lady.
We had a great experience with Ryan (& Abbey). We are searching for a regular sitter for our very timid pup and set up an over night stay to test the waters. Ryan’s communication was excellent throughout. We received messages, picture and video updates keeping us in the loop as to how our Biscuit was doing. This helped put us at ease during this stressful time of transition between sitters. We greatly appreciate the care Biscuit received. We’ll be booking again
Renata is THE BEST! left my baby daschund with her and her husband for 1 month. she kept me updated with videos and pictures everyday, which made me feel so secure and less stressed. i could see that my puppy was having the best time with them, and even her little daughter was cuddling with my dog all day. it’s really good that they have other dogs there as well, so Mona was playing everyday and having so much fun. i’m definitely booking Renata again! so happy i found someone that i trust to leave my baby when i need 🩵 ps: my dog cried when we got home missing her friends haha
Thank you Annabelle, Ben (and Ranger too) for taking wonderful care of my dog Luna. We will definetly use them again and recommend their service to family and friends. They are patient and kind and opened their home to our rambunctious dog. The photos of her playing, going for walks and "chillin" helped this fur mommy know she was happy and being well cared for.
This was our baby's 2nd stay with Meredith and her husband. She's a timid girl but she's gotten very comfortable with them which puts us as ease while we're away. Booking stays with Meredith is a very easy process. Meredith is very communicative with lots of updates and pics. Our baby will definitely have future stays with them!
Daniela is AMAZING. She watched my two frenchies last minute and kept my mind at ease with pics during my time away. Both pups came back so happy like they didn't even miss me LOL. We will definitely be calling Daniela in the future. Thank you for being so easy to work with.
As always, Kate and Aaron are very attentive to Arizona. She comes back happy. This time when I was dropping her off she didn’t even run after me when I was leaving and that says a lot. Kate brushed her, washed her paws, administrated daily medication and carefully attended all of her needs. Couldn’t be happier!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Encino on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 8,296 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Encino. 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.
94% of Encino 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 Encino 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 Encino 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 Encino.
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 Encino 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.
