“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!”

Both the parties felt that it was a good fit - before boarding. Will not hesitate to recommend Steve with a glowing 5-stars!”

“We were very nervous to leave the love of our lives, our pup Cocoa, with a sitter while we planned for a big trip. Cocoa is a very smart yet gentle and loving. She has anxiety in unfamiliar surroundings. The experience with Sophia however overturned all our worries about leaving Cocoa with a stranger. Sophia is incredible and our pup had the best time at her place. She took care of every minute detail, sent us updates and also went out of her way to ensure Cocoa does not miss her family. We are grateful for Sophia and her family’s efforts in keeping Cocoa safe and energized.”

“Coleman and his wife were kind, flexible, and loving sitters for our odd couple of pit-lab mixes. The elder statesdog, a 15+ yo male, was happy to snooze his days away on their living room floor, and our bouncing babe, a 19 month old girl, loved the exercise and energy of a building full of doggie neighbors. We'll definitely be visiting them again!”
“Juliana is a terrific dog sitter. We had our two fully-grown Labrador Retrievers stay with her for more than two weeks when we went on vacation, and I think our babies really miss her, her dog Cannoli, her house and the other dogs she was dog-sitting at the time. While we were away, Juliana sent us pictures everyday to show us what she's been doing with them. These picture made our short-term separation from our babies easier to deal with. We are very grateful for Julian taking such great care of our Labs, and we'll definitely have her dog-sit our babies again. We highly recommend Juliana.”
“This was the first time we’ve ever left our dog with someone outside the family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We were gone for two weeks and received lots of updates the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog settled in wonderfully and clearly got plenty of cuddles and playtime. Highly recommend!!!”

This was our first time boarding Ella and first time with Norelvis. We are as pleased as we could be. Our young Ella come home less timid and we think Norelvis did an excellent job and is fantastic with all types of dogs. She seem to be tuned in to what is going on with the dog. Big thumbs up!
Coco had a lovely trip for a week with Vaidhyanathan. She is a little shy and Vaidhyanathan took time to do a playdate to allow Coco to bond with his dog Leo. She settled down well, connected well with his son and dog, and came home tired and happy. He also kept us posted with regular updates and photos.
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!
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!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Los Gatos on Rover is $55.5 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 3,191 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.
