“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”
“Lexi and her family treated our dog as their own, and they truly understand what it means to care for a dog. There was never a worry that Moose wouldn’t get adequate stimulation with the many walks and backyard time spent with this family. The most noticeable difference between Lexi and other sitters was Moose’s energy when we picked him up. He wasn’t full of anxious energy and he seemed like our normal pup. This gives us the peace of mind and then some for any future stays he has with this household.”
“Ciana was a great mama to my puppy Tala! She made sure to learn about tala and sent me daily(sometimes more than once) updates/photos/videos. Will definitely use her services again! Thank you Ciana for taking good care of our puppy!”
“Katherine is absolutely amazing. Our 16 year old anxiety ridden Morkie spent 3 days and nights with her and every thing was great. Katherine only takes one pet at a time and really gave Delilah special attention including having her snuggle up with her at night and take her for nice long walks.”
“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!”
“Arianna took care of our senior pug. She was very kind to him and considerate of his needs (for example not walking in the heat). She provided a lot of updates and photos as well. Will definitely book with her again.”
“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!”
“Mariaelena was great with our two dogs. They are both elderly and one unexpectedly became a bit grouchy about his kennel and was sure to keep up reassured that everyone was doing fine despite the unexpected. Would totally trust her with our doggies anytime.”
“Lindsey and her husband took great care of our retriever for 10 nights! We received regular photos and videos and lots of communication. Lucky was well fed, walked, and loved like part of their family. He came home happy and relaxed.”
“This is our second time booking Laura and Gabriel. We know our dog is well cared for and included in the family. Our dog has a neurological condition that makes her very unstable on her feet, mixed with being a top heavy pitbull, she really has a hard time with non carpeted flooring. Laura and Gabriel go above and beyond and put out extra rugs so Lucy can get around the living areas while she's there. We will continue using them when we leave town. Lucy always comes back happy, well cared for, and you can tell she's part of the family when she's there.”
“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.”
“Aniqua was great with our dog and puppy! She sent me updates and pictures and took great care of them. She followed our care instructions and even went the extra mile to meet me for drop off and pick up. Will definitely be using her again when in the area!”
About: I’ve taken care of my puppy and have experienced training him since he was 8 weeks old and now he’s over 2 years old and very energetic and playful. I’ve also taken care of my cat and experienced administering medications through injection and orally when he got really sick. He’s now 5 years old and thriving. I work from home 3 times a week so I have flexibility and on the days I’m in office, I can still make time early morning or evening. We live in a single family home and have dog gates to separate cats and dogs as needed to give them safe spaces. We also have a fenced backyard so doggies can run and play catch.
“Katy provided a true at home experience and sent daily pictures of our Schnauzer cuddled up next to her lovely daughter. When we picked her up, Stella ran to members of Katie’s family as well as us. She was clearly comfortable with them. My husband was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home with us! We booked late on a holiday weekend and ended up rescheduling our pick up time to a couple hours later. Katie was totally accommodating. We had a perfect boarding experience! Thanks Katie and also to your lovely family. We hope to see you again soon!”
“Omg life saver!! We went to graton to visit people and king wasn’t able to go in so we took him to Frances! She is amazing! Always sent pictures and updates! Her and king had a great time! No problems but whole lotta naps!”
“Stacie was so communicative, friendly, and understanding. She sent me pictures daily of my girl, and was so kind in all of her messages. Her family is incredibly loving. I can’t wait for her to watch my girl again in the future because I know that she’s in capable and safe hands!”
“ My two Labradoodles stayrd the Memorial Day weekend with Marion Russo. They had a wonderful time playing with her and her dogs. When I brought them home they were relaxed and tired. I will use Marion's services whenever she is available. A great experience.”

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).

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,020 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Glen Ellen. 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 Glen Ellen 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 Glen Ellen 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 Glen Ellen.
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 Glen Ellen 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.
