“Jenny and her husband did amazing taking care of our Beaux!! We really enjoyed the updates and beautiful pics of our pup. I can tell she had a really great time that she even made sure to say bye before leaving. She even came home with a cute bandana 🥹 I would definitely let Beaux stay with them again. Thank you so much!!”
“Sherry and her husband Andreas took such good care of my baby. He was a little anxious the first night but they were so patient with him. I will definitely use them again. Thank you so much for such a great experience.”
“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.”
“We left our senior dog with Annie and Kina for 2 weeks while out of country. Annie is super responsive, smart and so sweet. She sent pics everyday, took him out (with our permission), and gave us updates. She handles senior dogs w health issues and on a medical routine very well. We’d definitely recommend Annie!!”
“Emily was such a great pet sitter for my dog! She sent me updates with photos/vids daily which definitely eased my worries of leaving my senior dog with someone. I knew she was in great hands. Emily was also great at making sure Cleo had her daily walks and her regular schedule. She is a true gem and I'm so glad I found her (also in such close proximity) and would highly recommend her and use her for a future stay! :) thanks again Emily!”
“John and Miyabi were amazing with my dog while I was on vacation! They sent daily pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear that my pup was happy, relaxed, and well cared for. They took her on walks and treated her like part of the family. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring sitters!”
“Stephanie was great! She sent several photo updates throughout Luka’s stay, which I really appreciated. Luka had a great time, and I felt he was well taken care of. I would definitely book with her again!”
“Christy was amazing!! She sent updates and pictures and our dog looked so happy throughout her stay. When we picked Sasha up she was happy and it was clear she had a great time with Christy! Would definitely have Sasha stay there again!!”
“Kyle was an excellent dog sitter! Our dog was sorry to be picked up when it was time for her to go home. She stayed with Kyle while we were away on vacation for five nights and enjoyed lots of cuddles with him. I could tell that she felt comfortable and well taken care of.”
“Marilyn is so professional and reliable, we are so happy to have found her. She took our dogs last minute and we have definitely found our fit! She has a very large yard which includes a huge portion of it dedicated for dogs which is separated by a fence, just what our furry friends needed, not to mention the care and individual attention that she provided. I would definitely recommend her, and I am sure we will be back. Thanks much Marilyn!!”
“Valeria was absolutely amazing and the sweetest. She kept me updated throughout LD’s stay and was very responsive. I wasn’t worried about how LD was being treated while with her. When I went to pick him up he was so happy and running around, he truly had the best time. Her backyard is quite big, so LD had a lot of space to runaround and be free.”
“Tatiana did an amazing job helping my kitten with her separation anxiety. Tatiana was very patient and nurturing not just with her but myself as well. I would definitely rebook when needed. Thank you for everything and for such a safe environment.”
“This was our first overnight stay we booked for Bruce through Rover. He has never really been away from us since we brought him home at just 5 weeks old, and now at a year and 3 months old, we were understandably a little nervous. We felt using Rover would be a much better option than boarding him at a pet hotel, and it ended up being one of the best decisions we could have made. We found Mollie on Rover and reached out to her. She responded so quickly that we were able to schedule a meet-and-greet the very next day. She took the time to get to know both us and Bruce, talked with us about his routine and personality, and even introduced him to her family. From that first meeting, we knew we had found someone special. During Bruce’s stay, Mollie kept us updated with messages and plenty of pictures. Seeing how happy, comfortable, and loved he was made it so much easier to enjoy our trip. Throughout the day, she shared the activities they were doing with Bruce, and it truly felt like he was part of the family. Honestly, I think he may have had even more fun at Mollie’s house than he does at home! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Mollie went above and beyond in caring for Bruce, and it gave us complete peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. We will absolutely be booking with Mollie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family.”
“3rd time booking with Gabrielle! She keeps us updated daily with photos and has great communication. Pick up and drop off are always smooth. Loki is excited everytime he gets to stay with her! Will definitley keep booking with Gabrielle!”
“I can tell Sheila loved and cared for my dog as if he was her own. He had a great time staying with her and her family and I would definitely book with her again”
“Maria and her children were great! We dropped off both of our dogs for 18hrs while in town for a wedding and they kept to their feed and walk schedule while accommodating for a super early morning pickup! We’re so grateful for their help!!”
“Angelica was such an attentive and communicative care taker. She really went above and beyond to prep for Leo's visit, handled some last minute additional care instructions due to a scratch in his eye, and really made the whole experience so lovely and reassuring. Highly recommend!”

Jasmine took excellent care of my toy poodle, Cookie, while I was away in Peru. She followed all of my instructions carefully, made sure he went outside regularly, and kept me updated throughout his stay. It gave me great peace of mind knowing he was in such caring and responsible hands. I truly appreciated how attentive and kind she was with Cookie. I would definitely recommend Jasmin to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter, and I would happily book with her again.🐶💕
Krissy was wonderful! Very responsive and flexible when we had to change pickup and drop off time around. She treated Penny as if she were her own dog and I could tell Penny was very happy and enjoyed her stay. Would definitely recommend Krissy and will be using 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!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Gardena on Rover is $55.5 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 9,745 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.
