“It is our first time boarding our dog, so we were a bit nervous, but Soonok was amazing! Our dog likes to walk outside, and Soonok brought him out for walks and even updated us with photos and videos. We appreciate Soonok being communicative and for taking great care of our dog. 5 stars for sure!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our furry love ones. They were so happy Buster didn’t want to leave. I am very happy to have found you will be first on my list for the next time.”
“I could tell that my dog loved her stay with Ashley and was very comfortable and confident. She's picky about people and other times I can tell when I pick her up and she's been missing me. She was with Ashley for almost a week and she did not miss me lol. My dog could use some socialization so I also picked Ashley because she has other small dogs and while I don't think Lily made a best friend she was at least comfortable with the other dogs as I received lots of photos from Ashley showing this. I get really nervous about leaving my dog with anyone but I would definitely leave her with Ashley again.”
“Maria and her husband were very nice and took care of my dog very well! He enjoyed his stayed and Maria even sent me a picture of my dog enjoying his time. I highly recommend any overnight stay with Maria, she is trustworthy and safe.”
About: As a pet owner myself, I know it can be hard to find a sitter that you can trust to take care of them. I have 3 dogs at home; a small Shi-tzu, a young husky/german sheppard, and a old retriever mix. I also have 2 young cats and I take care of a neighborhood stray. I have always had a soft spot for animals. My mom and I have fostered stray cats, dogs, and watched pets while family friends were on vacation. I may not have much formal training, but if hired I will carefully watch, play, walk, and hangout with your pets, as well as, keep you updated in the process. Every morning I take my 2 dogs out to go, then I fill up their water bowl and let them back in. I give them their breakfast around 10 and then take them on a walk around the park near our neighborhood. We play throughout the day and they keep each other company while I do chores and homework. I feed them around 4:30 or 5 each night and they get a glucosamine biscuit before we go to bed. Sometimes we go on a second walk before bed as well. I have a fenced yard and two friendly fur babies to keep them company! My cats are friendly but if your babies dont like cats, mine will stay in my room. We have some house gates we used to use when our doggies were puppy training, and a very roomy crate for the young husky, so blocking our animals from yours is always an option if necessary. I only ask that you supply their food for their stay if they are on any special food diet.
“Derek and his wife took wonderful care of our boy Yuki! It’s clear they’re truly passionate about caring for dogs. I felt completely at ease while traveling, knowing Yuki was in such good hands. Derek regularly sent updates and photos, and made sure Yuki got plenty of exercise and attention. He genuinely cares about the well-being of pets. Thank you so much, Derek and your lovely wife!”
“Vy did a great job taking care of our two poodles. She regularly kept me updated with photos and videos. She played with them constantly and kept them on schedule. Would highly recommend her!”
“Our dog Blue had the best time staying with Dianiris and her family. From the get go, Dianiris responded quickly to texts and was very kind and reassuring (I might have been having a little separation anxiety of my own lol). I really appreciated all of the check-ins and photos she sent while Blue was with her too. Dianiris will definitely be our go-to sitter if we are back in the area!”
“Dolores watched our 11-year-old Chocolate Lab as was absolutely fantastic. She was sooo caring - she walked our pup regularly without even being asked. The accommodations at Dolores's house were better than Riley (our pup) is used to at home. Dolores was very communicative both before and during Riley's stay at Dolores's house. I would HIGHLY recommend Dolores and will definitely ask Dolores to watch Riley next time we need a puppy sitter. Sincerely, Vince Greco”
“Thank you for doing such an amazing job taking care of Koda. She got lots of attention & exercise and can tell she was happy & comfortable. I got lots of updates throughout my trip which was great. Will definitely be booking again 😊”
“We were nervous to leave our little guy for a few days, but we didn't need to be. Claudia took exceptional care of him! He got to play with her dogs and several others. The videos she sent us of him were magical. I don't think he has ever been happier than he was staying with her!”
“My Family had a couple day celebrating Mother Day a Birthday in Solvang and couldn’t take our 4-year old Sally so we decided turn to Rover.com for help. Fortunately, we find to Michele and Ramiro and they gave us peace in mind! They love to take care dogs and we really appreciated the pictures they sent us showing our dog to be completely comfortable. Will definitely reach out to them again next time we need someone to watch our precious Sally! 100% recommended. Alejandro and Yadira”
“We are very pleased with the care received from Maria. She went beyond what we expected when taking care of Simba and Yogi. She was open to meeting our pups before booking. From the initial meet up, we felt very comfortable leaving both of our pups under her care. The first day we dropped them off, she asked all the right questions (from play time - food and potty needs). Maria’s communication was great! She sent us photos and updates throughout the day. It didn’t feel like a simple check-in but rather a genuine greeting when they woke up, or did something funny and at the end of the day. Additionally, she took them out for walks, kept them engaged in playtime and gave them lots of love and affection. She quickly learned their quirks and attended to their needs. Simba and Yogi felt at home while they were at Maria’s home. We highly recommend Maria to anyone who wants their pup to be cared for as their own. Simba and Yogi approved this message and will look forward to a future stay with Maria 🐾”
“This was our second time bringing our yorkie Jehu to Marby, and she never disappoints! She kept us updated throughout the entire 5 days with daily photos of their walks and mealtimes — it truly put our hearts at ease. We recently switched Jehu to a homemade frozen food diet, and Marby handled the preparation without any hesitation, making sure he was well fed and cared for. Jehu absolutely loves her dog Mamba, so he had a built-in best friend the whole time. He came home safe, happy, and clearly well-loved. We will absolutely be back — highly recommend Marby to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely cares!”

Jennifer and her family were amazing with my dog! They made him feel welcomed, comfortable, safe, and so loved. Jennifer was incredibly accommodating with my last-minute booking, and with her veterinary nursing background, I felt confident trusting her with his ear medications. She kept me updated with photos and videos and even shared the great news that his ears were improving! I was able to enjoy my time out of town with complete peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I can’t recommend Jennifer enough and would absolutely book with her again!
gileen was amazing with my little guy, leo! she frequently kept me updated on his stay and sent many pictures throughout as well. leo had a great time! i also appreciated how welcoming and accommodating her home is to pets. i highly recommend gileen and will be booking with her again!!
Jennifer was an amazing dog sitter for our dog Rosie. She was very quick with responding and sent us daily pictures to keep us updated. She has a closed yard for your dogs. She was very friendly and definitely a pet person! Would highly recommend her for your pet needs in the future and we would love to use her again to pet sit for us.
Sabrina was absolutely amazing! She treated my dog like her own, took him to the beach for his first time, and gave me many updates with pictures. She was so good with communication I had zero anxiety of him being with her. I trust her completely and I look forward to booking her again!
She’s amazing! You can tell that she truly loves dogs. My dog has a lot of anxiety and as soon as I handed her my dog she tried to reassure my dog that it would be okay. She sent me pictures and videos of my dog throughout her stay. My dog looked very happy. I highly recommend her.
We were nervous to leave our near 1 yr old dog for vacation, as this would be her first time, but she meshed really well when we went to visit Asmita, and although still nervous she did really great. Asmita really made sure to make her feel at home and sent us tons of photos, showing her not only surviving, but seeming to enjoy herself. This is more than we could hope for. Would definitely recommend Asmita to others and use her services again.

94% of sitters in La Palma can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays.

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 La Palma home-away-from-home, 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 La Palma.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 La Palma sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.
