“This is my 2nd booking. My dog absolutely loves and gets excited when he see’s Shardae. I have found his forever sitter. He is well taken care of and happy when he comes home! I appreciate you!”
“This is my first time getting a dog sitter and Jenny really set the standard. She was very sweet to my dog. She even gave my dog Zoey a bandana that really added cuteness. I also wanna thank her for providing Zoey wet food coz i was not able to prepare a wet food in my dog’s bag. She really took good care of my dog. I appreciate that she sent pictures a lot and updating me. She is highly recommendable and I will be a repeat client of her in the future.”
“Beverly was a wonderful sitter for our dog, Mikey! She was communicative, sent videos, and took great care while we were away for a week. As a bonus, our dog became best friends with hers – and played the whole time! We’ll definitely be back.”
“As usual, Jami & Frances were fantastic! My dog Murphy is pretty much a regular with them. They love him and treat him like family every time he stays with them. Communication is always clear and timely and I couldn't ask for a better sitter. They are simply wonderful.”
“Emily and her dog Maple were great at taking care of my dog, Leo! He loved playing with Maple. She was also super accommodating on some scheduling changes for drop off and pickup times for boarding. Would definitely recommend using her for daycare and boarding.”
“Kyle was very communicative and responsive. We met up a day or so before our scheduled boarding and did a meet and greet. Our dogs got along well and made the drop off much easier and stress-free. Our dog came back happy and well cared for. We look forward to using Kyle again in the future.”
“Angela is an amazing at caring for our skittish doggie, and she is even flexible enough to accommodate drop ins for our kitties! Can't rave enough about how good she is. She takes time to get our fur babies acclimated to things, is very patient, provides daily updates and even a "Pawgress Report" for us when the booking is complete! Simply awesome! 😃”
“Krissy was the best! This was my first time boarding Poppy and I had no idea how it would go. However once I dropped Poppy off she immediately sent me an update with a picture of her and I quickly felt so much more at ease. I really appreciated the regular updates from Krissy. Thank you so much again! Will definitely be looking for Krissy if I ever need to board Poppy again.”
“Finny had such a great time with Sherry! He came home happy, tired, and honestly a little heartbroken to leave his new dog friends behind. 🐾 It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being loved and cared for like part of the family. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”
“It’s my very first time looking for a pet sitter because I’m always so anxious about leaving my dogs with people that I don’t know but I can’t thank Stephanie enough for taking care of my puppies! It was a great experience, my dogs had fun, played with other dogs and she was so accommodating to their needs and also to my last minute changes! I was getting daily updates and pictures too! I was comfortable because she has so many years of experience and a lot of good reviews! I can fully recommend her and I would definitely be happy to bring my dogs again! Thank you so much!!!”
“Tatiana was a GREAT sitter for our QT. She took a lot of care to administer medication and make sure QT felt at home and was comfortable during our trip. Sometimes she won't eat or get in a bad mood when we are away but with Tatiana and family she was very happy and eating like a horse. The communication and photos / videos were great. Overall I would highly recommend Tatiana to care for your pet. She is highly capable and goes the extra mile to make sure pets are happy and healthy.”
“Leaving your loved one to a complete stranger is not very easy. It is a terrible feeling. So you look, read the reviews and hope for the best. Now...you are reading this review so you must be needing someone to take care of your baby. Look no further. Haley is the best. Haley took care of my frenchie for 4 days and 4 nights. She sent me daily photos and communicated with me any concern or questions she had. Looks like my grandfur kid found a new home. Thank you Haley!”
“I left my 8-year Golden with Christy and her family for 24 hours while I was attending a wedding in Redondo beach. They were all so sweet and helped Basin feel right at home. They are all very clearly dog people! I highly recommend Christy if you are ever in the area and need a good home for your pup.”
“Vanessa took care of my dog like her own and provided frequent updates throughout her stay. She was communicative and easy to work with. I'm glad I found a reliable sitter for the next time I go out of town!”
“Marilyn took such good care of our pups! She sent pics and video, and they had a blast. (Even our cranky older dog haha) We were gone for 2 weeks and knew they’d be in good hands from the moment we did our meet and greet. Will definitely be bringing them back next time we need a sitter.”
“Xenia and her crew are the absolute best. Bogie’s favorite Rover ever to go to and stay with. She has the best time with Xenia’s sweet pups, they seem to have a blast every time. We love them and always feel so comfortable leaving Bogie with them!”
“Annie is amazing!! She took such good care of my boy Kuma. She sent me tons of photos throughout his stay and gave him plenty of exercise by talking him for walks and playing with him. Kuma had a great time with her. I would recommend Annie to everyone!”

Stephanie took great care of our two dogs while we were gone for the weekend. I was worried about one of our dogs who gets anxious, but Stephanie sent us updates and pictures to let us know how the dogs were doing. She is very responsive and made our first experience with a dogsitter easy and comforting. We would be happy to have our pups stay with her again.
Diana took such great care of Cleo, especially since it was the longest I'd ever left her with others (9 days). She took Cleo on field trips, gave her plenty of cuddles, and stuck to her routine which was very much appreciated. Cleo had such a great time with Diana!
Shardae was an amazing dog sitter, and I couldn't be happier with the care she provided. From the very beginning, she was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring. It was clear that she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. She kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was safe, happy, and well cared for. When I picked him up, he was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had a great time. I highly recommend Shardae to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and compassionate dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!
Marilyn took such good care of our pups! She sent pics and video, and they had a blast. (Even our cranky older dog haha) We were gone for 2 weeks and knew they’d be in good hands from the moment we did our meet and greet. Will definitely be bringing them back next time we need a sitter.
Kerstin provided our dog Luna with great care and attention. We got daily updates from her on how Luna was doing and it was clear that she provided a safe environment that Luna could be calm in. Luna was happy and healthy when we picked her up, and we couldn't ask for more.
Jason was an amazing sitter. He took such great care of our dog Penny while we were out of town for a few days. He was flexible, communicative, and very understanding of all our needs! Penny came back a happy girl, and we could tell she was taken care of very well. We would be excited to book with Jason again!
Alice is the absolute BEST sitter you will ever find!! We were gone on an extended trip and she loved on our two pugs more than we could have ever dreamed! She thoughtfully sent us videos and updates daily. Our babies were walked, fed, brushed, and most importantly, constantly showered in love! We were able to enjoy our vacation because we knew our dogs were in the absolute best care possible! If you are considering Alice, consider it an honor if she agrees to take in your dogs. She is a true animal lover and truly an exceptional person!! Thank you, Alice!!
This was my first time boarding my little old fella. The experience with Jasmine couldn’t have been any better. She was nice, friendly and communicative through my Gizmo’s stay. I received regular updates and photos. Jasemine took great care of my little guy and I strongly recommend her!!! Thank you, Jasmine!
Mary was great and she was amazing to my dog. I would highly recommend her as she gave regular updates, asked the important questions to how you would like your dog to be treated, and she was great to work with. I would happily have her watch my dog again, and she is an amazing sitter. Echo loved being with her the whole long weekend and he would love to come back!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Gardena on Rover is $55.5 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 9,957 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Gardena. 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 Gardena 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 Gardena 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 Gardena 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 Gardena.
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 Gardena 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.
