“Our pup Ranger had a great stay with Mila! He had a blast going on adventures and hanging out with Mila in her yard. We felt like he was in great hands while we were away and will definitely ask Mila to watch Ranger again when we head out of town. Thanks Mila!”

“We can’t sing her praises enough! Emily was so sweet and welcoming to our Javier. He’s a new rescue for us and she is his first sitter. She sent so many updates showing him making himself right at home. When we picked him up she ran one of his toys out to us and he ran to her. THAT’S how at home he was there. She’s fantastic!”

Would definitely recommend her to anyone needing their dog watched, especially since Drake can be reactive to strangers and other dogs. She was very understanding and handled him with a ton of care.”

About: Although I have never owned a dog myself, I have several years of experience caring for family dogs. My sister has had a dog since 2016, and my mom got a dog in 2023. I regularly help care for them when my family is out of town, including feeding them on schedule, providing fresh food and water, taking them on walks, and making sure they are safe and comfortable. While I do not have extensive pet-sitting experience, I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and caring for them with patience, love, and responsibility. I would be grateful for the opportunity to care for your furry friend and appreciate the trust you place in me. I am a full-time student during the weekdays and a mom to a 6 six year old girl who also loves dogs. I am available in the evenings to take your dog on a walk. I am also available anytime on the weekend to board your pup or to take them for walks. I make sure dogs are safe and comfortable while in my home and I let them lead their walks. I keep them on a secure leash at all times, pay attention to their surroundings, allow them time to sniff and explore, and make sure they release enough energy without getting them overtired.

“Mr. & Mrs B are very friendly pretty sitters. While we dropped off our dog for his first visit he pooped on throw rug in their house. When i rushed back inside with a plastic bag, Mrs B had already taken care of it and was chatting with my husband. While we were gone they sent us reasuring pictures of our happy dog with their chihuahua. They gave our dog meals,snacks & 3 medications at 3 times during the day. When it was time to pick up our dog he was all packed and ready before we got there. Remy acted like he was coming home from a vacation. I will not hesatate to contact them again for dog care. Top notch care for our fur baby.”

About: I have decades of experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages breeds. I'm a stay at home parent with older kids that would dote over your pet as much as they obsess over our resident Great Pyrenees. Your pet is part of our family as long as they're with us. I'm a stay at home parent so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule for house sitting, boarding and last minute care for your pet. I have a fenced yard where your pet has access to our home and outside. I am home most of the time to tend to their needs and can help with medication administration as well.

About: I grew up with dogs and I’ve been a dog owner most of my adult life. I’ve also been a dog owner from the puppy age of eight weeks all the way through mature life. I can take care of other pets as well, and I can be available for dog boarding, dog sitting, dog walks, and other pet care during your weekends and travels. I am a part-time parent and establishing this as additional income since I am a single income household in Marin county. I am available for dog walking and boarding on alternating weekends, and during periods of your travels when I am in town. I am an outdoors woman, and will get pets outside and active regularly. I know several local dog parks and dog-friendly trails since I’ve been a dog owner myself for years (I no longer have a dog as of early 2025). I have a fenced front and backyard. I can house a pet with all of your personal items for the pet anywhere in my home, and I can provide highly personalized care since I live alone (part time parent with alternating weekends on my own).

Annelies & Marcos are amazing! You'd be very lucky to have your pup stay with them. Annelies was easy to coordinate with, for connecting on details and drop off. They understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog behind on vacation, and were so communicative and shared lots of photos, so I felt well updated and could relax, knowing everything was going well. They ensured my pup had lots of outdoor time, walks and even a day at the beach, followed by a bath! If they are available, run, don't walk to book with them. You will be relieved and your dog will be well taken care of and loved like their own.

Our little Kodi is a rescue dog who can be anxious in new situations, needing lots of reassurance and a tender-hearted caregiver, which is exactly who Ashley is. She made a safe haven for our anxious pup and he was in heaven, being pampered with complete and utter attention at all times. She also was in constant touch with us, supplying multiple updates and photos every day during the boarding, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We cannot recommend Ashley enough, and we are thrilled to have found her for our little Kodi and are honored to recommend her pet sitting services!

Caroline did a phenomenal job taking care of our little guy.

Rosa and Kevin took great care of Lulu. Lulu ate some garbage. They took Lulu to an emergency veterinarian and had her stomach pumped. probably saving Lulu much discomfort or serious inflammation/internal injury. These people have earned our maximum respect, for caring for their boarder. We would recommend them to other Rover boarders.

Andrew took incredible care of Luna! Throughout my multi day trip he made sure I felt reassured, sending photos, videos of Luna (active GSP) on tons of hikes and walks. He even went out of his way on July 4th to make sure she wasn’t frightened by any fireworks, gave her medicine, and I really couldn’t have asked for more. She came back so tired and happy I’m very grateful.

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Larkspur

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Larkspur on Rover is $62.72 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 4,817 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Larkspur. 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.

92% of Larkspur 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 Larkspur 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 Larkspur 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 Larkspur.

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 Larkspur 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.
