“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!”
“Sue was great with my senior cat! He's been having to move a lot with our military move so it was wonderful knowing he was in a comfortable and safe environment while we were busy and well loved.”
“Sara took the most incredible care of our pup. We got tons of great pictures of him daily and she provided wonderful updates. We even left with the cutest custom report card on his stay. I would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone who is looking for a great place for their dog!! Thank you Sara and Zoe!”
“Laura and her family were great with Skye and Gidget!! They sent pictures and videos to help us from missing our fur babies! Laura was responsive and helpful. Highly recommend for doggy vacations.”
“Definitely a 5-star experience. Corinne was super responsive and answered all my questions that made me feel comfortable to book. I can definitely say this meet was meant to be. This was my first time leaving my pup, Chanel, with someone new - let alone a new place for several days. (She is super friendly, but since always with me, will cry if she sees me leave her.) As soon as we walked up to their home, Chanel was super curious and happy to go inside, greeting them both with such excitement. They both made me feel at ease. Their beautiful home was perfect for her - with a big bed, toys, and a nice and spacious back yard. I loved the several updates and pictures that were sent to me; it brought so much smiles to see Chanel being such a good girl, and being cared for like they did. I also loved the little report card they gave me at the end. I highly recommend Corinne and Louis, and will definitely book with them again if the opportunity allows. Thank you both so much!”
“This was our first time leaving our BoBo. Amie has made his stay very comfortable and such a loving environment. Will definitely rebook in the future. She provided daily pictures and kept us updated regularly.”
About: I have over 10 years of hands on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a longtime pet owner, I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and temperaments. I previously cared for three dogs of my own and have experience with puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and multi pet households. I’m comfortable caring for shy or anxious pets and always take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at ease. I can accommodate special feeding schedules, daily routines, and individual care needs to help maintain consistency while you’re away. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I treat every pet like family and keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout their pet’s stay, so they always have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to make every pet feel right at home. I’m trusted with others animals. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am home throughout the day, allowing me to provide attentive, personalized care from morning to night. Your pet won’t just be checked on, they’ll receive plenty of companionship, playtime, affection, and supervision. I’m able to accommodate special feeding schedules, medication routines, potty breaks, and individual care needs to help keep their routine as normal as possible. Whether your pet is staying for a day or an extended visit, my goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where they feel comfortable, happy, and right at home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special care instructions before their stay so they feel as comfortable as possible. I provide a calm, clean, and loving home where pets are closely supervised and treated like family. I have access to a secure, fenced outdoor area within my apartment community for safe potty breaks and fresh air. I’m experienced caring for shy or anxious pets, as well as homes with multiple pets, and I always adapt my care to each animal’s unique needs. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates throughout your pet’s stay, so you can relax knowing your furry family member is safe, happy, and in caring hands.
“Megan and her family provided exceptional care for Ollie, ensuring he was treated as one of their own. If you are feeling anxious about leaving your pets, rest assured that they are in good hands. I was in a bind and they came through for me. Thank you very much! I will use services again. 😇”
“Thank you to Marlo again for caring for our dear Mocha girl for tha past 6 days! Marlo really does above and beyond in providing plenty of activity throughout the day, administering meds, keeping it fun and safe for the pups, and sending pics, videos, and updates that always made us smile and feel reassured that Mocha was being very well taken care of. Mocha will be back and we definitely recommend Marlo as an outstanding pet caregiver.”
“This was my first time ever using Rover to find a pet sitter and we think we found the pit of gold at the end of the rainbow. Angela was absolutely amazing! My son was extremely worried about leaving his dog with anyone but family for the very first time. But the updates and photos we received put his mind at ease that Pluto was having a great time on his own mini vacation. Thanks to this, we were able to better enjoy our own vacation. I cannot say enough positive things about our first time with Angela and Rover.”
“Lindsay was a great dog sitter for my dog foxy. Foxy had an overnight stay at her home with her two dogs and it was wonderful. Lindsey was very flexible with my schedule and would keep me updated on the dogs daily activities. She is very attentive. I will use her services again.”
“Nyessa is simply wonderful! The way she cared for my dog was beyond what I could have hoped for. She’s so gentle, kind, and attentive! it felt like leaving my fur baby with family. I’m so thankful for her kindness and can’t wait to book with her again!”
About: Big heart, gentle hands, and plenty of treats! I’m dedicated to providing a fun, stress-free environment for your pets. Whether it’s long walks or cozy cuddles, your fur baby will be in the best of care with me. Full-time care for your best friend! Because I’m a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to provide around-the-clock attention. Our typical day includes cozy indoor playtime and daily neighborhood walks with my baby in tow. It’s the perfect environment for pets who love a consistent routine and a family atmosphere. I can't wait to welcome your pup into our daily adventures! I’m a firm believer that pets are family! When your fur baby stays with me, they get full access to cuddles on the couch and endless yard fun (fenced). If I’m visiting your home, I take pride in being a respectful guest who focuses entirely on keeping your pet happy and tired out. You can expect plenty of photo updates, quick communication, and one very happy pet upon your return!
About: I enjoy spending lots of time playing, walking and even a little training. I have also had senior dogs that need a little extra care and attention. I am recently unemployed and have lots of time available. I would love nothing more than to help as many pets/pet parents as I can. Dogs can enjoy lots of play time and walks as well as maybe a little place time and snacks. I have had senior dogs as well that just need some down time and cuddles. I have a big fenced in backyard that allows for lots of playtime or maybe some rest in the shade.
“Cecilia could not have been more wonderful! She is a true dog lover with great energy and one of the most beautiful yards I have ever seen! I was never worried about my little girl for one minute and enjoyed the great pictures and updates Cecilia sends daily. I highly recommend! ”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Los Alamitos is $63
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Los Alamitos
Ashley took great care of Baobao. So did her other dogs. I think Baobao really enjoyed her stay with all of them. Ashley always responded quickly and sent cute photos of Baobao and other dogs. Due to Baobao’s sensitive stomach, she is required to eat a special diet of home made food and Ashley was kind enough to help me with this. Overall, we felt really comfortable having Baobao stay at Ashley’s place.
Absolutely amazing experience leaving our beloved Bulldogs with Sara and her family for a long weekend. She had great questions at drop-off, was in constant communication with updates and photos throughout the stay, and even provided cute little pet report cards at pick-up. HIGHLY recommend. We will definitely be requesting her services again the future.
My first time using rover and Stephanie was so wonderful! My pup stayed at her house and had so much fun with her pup and playing in the backyard. Drop off and pick up the as a breeze, She sent multiple updates every day and was so responsive. I would absolutely use her again!
Lindsay was awesome!! We had such a great experience with her! From the moment we met, we felt completely comfortable leaving our dog, Valentina with her. Lindsay was very communicative, responsible, and professional. We loved receiving updates, photos, and knowing that she was happy, safe, and getting plenty of attention while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. We will definitely return to Lindsay in the future!
We are so thankful for Dez looking our girl, Rey. Dez was more than willing to watch her last minute after plans fell through with someone else. They made sure to make Rey feel comfortable in a new environment and asked all the questions needed to get to know Rey and her routine. Thank you again, Dez, for taking such excellent care of our girl.
We always board our 15lb Pomeranian with Lorraine whenever we go on extended vacations. She is always happy to stay there, which gives us complete peace of mind while we are away. They consistently send daily picture updates so we know how she's doing, and they are always flexible and accommodating with pickup and drop-off times. If you're looking for a dependable and caring sitter, we highly recommend them.

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 Los Alamitos 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 Los Alamitos 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 Los Alamitos 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 Los Alamitos.
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 Los Alamitos 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.
