“We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful and dedicated dog sitter than Qi. From the very beginning, she demonstrated genuine care, attentiveness, and professionalism in looking after our beloved dog, Bear. It was immediately clear that she treats every pet as if they were her own. Qi went above and beyond to ensure Bear was not only well cared for, but also happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Her attention to detail, reliability, and warm nature truly set her apart. When we returned, Bear was relaxed, content, and clearly had formed a bond with her—a true testament to the exceptional level of care she provides. We are incredibly grateful for Qi and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly exceptional in pet care. Thank you so much, Qi! We are hoping to book with you again soon, I know Bear can’t wait to see you again!”
“We have an 11-month-old puppy who has never been away from us for more than a few hours, so we were understandably nervous. But the moment we went for a meet-and-greet at Joyce’s home, both our puppy and we felt completely at ease. We took a short 3-day trip and left our dog with Joyce, and she and her family took such wonderful care of her. Joyce sent us daily updates and pictures, which really helped put our minds at ease. Before the boarding even began, she took detailed notes about our puppy’s routine, including things like her feeding schedule and even her poop cycle, so that her entire family could be on the same page. If she’s available again, we would absolutely love to have her care for our puppy in the future!”
“Mochi had a great weekend stay. She was well entertained by the family and got along well with their dog Eberly. Home with enclosed yard is spacious and safe. We will definitely board again.”
“Steve is very communicative keeping me informed and sending photos of my pups during boarding. Steve is also very tuned-in to the pups in his care. Thank you Steve!”
“Lana (that’s Svetlana’s preferred name) did a great job taking care of my Ziggy for 3 days. He’s got plenty of walking, playtime, and chill time during his stay. Lana was helpful about my need to get Ziggy picked up from my home while I was rushing to an airport. At the end of the dog boarding, she dropped him off at my house as well, which was very convenient! I’m so glad Lana offered this Pick-up & Drop-off option! Highly recommend her as a dog sitter!”
“We are new to rover.com and feel very fortunate to have found Jennifer. She has many years of experience and we felt confident that she knows how to handle any situation. A great communicator, we really appreciated the regular updates. She, her family, her pups and her pup guests were great company for our dog. When we picked him up, he was so calm and relaxed, we knew he was very happy with his stay with Jennifer and her family. We look forward to booking with her again!”
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”
“Leah was very friendly and easy to communicate with, and her quick responses made me feel at ease. Thank you so much for your kind and patient support, even when my replies were delayed.”
“Our dog spent another long weekend with Boris and Olga and I feel like he had the best weekend! They took him on a hike and it feels like they really treated him like their own. Great communication. Lots of photos. Flexible with drop off and pick up. Would absolutely use again!”
“Milo had a great time with Megha and her family! Especially with their dog Barfi! They sent lots of updates and lots of photos of Milo, which helped me feel reassured that Milo was in good hands and that he was having a good time. Milo played so much with Barfi, and it really seems like he has gained a new best friend. Will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Juliana was awesome. I would definately not hesitate to have you watch over your 4 legged friends. Our dog was nervious at first but by the second day she had max happy go lucky. Will definately reach out for future bookings when they come up.”
“Anusha is an amazing sitter for Kumo. She updated us with pictures and videos every few hours which we greatly appreciated, and made us feel at ease during our vacation as we could see Kumo was having the time of her life. She even made a best friend during her stay! We're very lucky to have found her as a sitter and highly recommend!”
“I was lucky to find Michelle and Michael. My dog is young golden retriever with high energy. Michelle and Michael gave my dog plenty of cuddles and attention. They gave my dog long walk and played fetch with him. Michelle sent me updates frequently that helped relieve my separation anxiety. I couldn't be happier to have my dog stay with Michelle and Michael, who are really nice and caring people.”
“Kimberly and her family were amazing as always! I truly feel comfortable leaving my doggy in her care and I never have to worry because she provides pictures and updates everyday. Thank you, again, Kimberly!”
“Just picked my puppy up from Yoona and Minjae and it was truly the most amazing experience from first contact to pickup. I was SO nervous to leave my beloved pup that I missed many trips because I couldn’t find anyone that felt like the right fit to leave him with. They were so warm, accommodating and welcoming and my dog instantly felt comfortable. They sent the perfect amount of updates/photos and were so communicative and responsive. They truly treated my puppy as one of the family and it instantly made me feel so much relief. They have the most adorable and sweet dog that my dog enjoyed being with. They worked with my ultra picky dog and made sure he ate by getting creative with his meals. I cannot recommend them enough and 5 stars isn’t enough. I am so grateful for them and the most incredible experience. Thank you so much, Yoona and Minjae!❤️🐶”
“I couldn't be there for the hand-off and pick-up of my dog, but Coleman worked with our friend to make sure Indy made it to and from his care easily. We got daily pictures, he put up with my frequent texts asking about Indy, and Indy got some good exercise and I could tell was the recipient of lots of attention!”
“Nadia was fantastic with my dog Tam! He traditionally has anxiety being separated but Nadia had I’m sleeping in her arms! Nadia provided daily photos and videos to keep us up to date! Tam will be going back to Nadia!”

Highly recommend! It is completely obvious how much Qi loves dogs. She provided incredible peace of mind by sending daily pictures and videos, showing just how attentive she is. She watched soccer games with my dog, which was such a fun, personal touch! I will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future.
It was our first time leaving Nash with Tingting, and she was amazing! She is very friendly, thoughtful, and attentive, and she kept us updated throughout his stay. Her care and attention to detail made us feel completely at ease. We knew Nash was in good hands and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommended!
Everything went so well starting from our meet and greet, to communication before the sitting, and pickup. Theo looked happy and did his trusting belly side up sleeping in pics she sent. So I felt very relieved knowing he was happy and trusting. Theo lines to sleep in a bed and I was so happy that they let him sleep with whoever he wanted. That is love!
Denisa was awesome! For the past few years, our dog has been watched by family members when we travel, but we recently moved so that is no longer an option. Our dog can have separation anxiety, but that was not the case with Denisa! I could tell by the daily video messages that our dog was very comfortable, happy to be around Denisa and family, and was thoroughly enjoying her stay! Denisa proactively communicated, responded to all my questions, and followed instructions carefully. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the beginning, it was clear how caring, responsible, and genuinely passionate they are about animals. Our Powder was not only well taken care of, but truly loved while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind. Powder was happy, and clearly in love with Garrett when we returned — the best sign of excellent care. It’s such a relief to find someone you can fully trust with both your pet. We would recommend this pet sitter without hesitation to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and professional care. We will absolutely be booking again!
Amazing First Experience on Rover! This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Vaidhyanathan took incredible care of my Labrador, Luna. From the moment we connected, he were warm, responsive, and professional. I received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Luna instantly felt comfortable and came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. It’s obvious that Vaidhyanathan truly loves dogs and treats them like their own. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Los Gatos
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Los Gatos on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,149 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Los Gatos. 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.
93% of Los Gatos 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 Gatos 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 Gatos 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 Gatos.
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 Gatos 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.
