“Tara and her family took excellent care of our dog Gabby while we were away. Lots of walks, cuddles and extra attention. We also received daily updates and photos. We would absolutely book with them again.”
“Louis was awesome! He was very attentive to Daisy’s needs and went over and beyond our expectations with photos and updates each day! Thank you so much for taking such good care of our girl and making her happy. Louis, you are our #1 go-to-sitter from here on out!”
About: For as long as I can remember, I have been around animals. From rescuing and taking in strays with my mom to taking care of our 6 crazy doggos, animals hold a big place in my heart. Now, I try to spend my time filling the void while I am away from home, and hope to make and meet as many furry friends as I can. I am well experienced in animal care with large and small pets, and have past experiences in dog obedience. I love to hike and take the scenic routes, and I never run out of energy! I can’t wait to meet you and more importantly your pup! I’m currently in school, but my schedule is very manageable and easy to work around. I have ample amounts of free time during mornings. As well as evenings, on select days, right after your pups dinner time and just before sunsets! Now believe me when I say this, I know how much your pet means to you. They are not just our pets, they are our family. And I know just how scary it can be to trust others with your pet. But with that in mind, know that when your pet is with me, I treat them like they are my own. By providing endless love and protection, your pet is always in safe hands.
“Rachel was fabulous! She kept me updated with Molly's activities and shared lots of pictures. It was obvious that Molly's was very happy and well-cared for there. She had Rachel's children to play with as well as her dog. I was a bit anxious because this was the first time we boarded Molly, but it turned out far better than expected. I will definitely use her services again! So happy!”
“Cara was great with Karma and I would not hesitate at all using her services again. She sent me updates with photos on a regular basis, letting me know Karma was doing great and enjoying her new environment. Thank you so much; would highly recommend this kind and caring sitter.”
“Jennifer & Julie took excellent care of Zoey. She had a great time at their place, so much so that she didn’t seem that excited to see us! They updated us regularly on how she was doing and sent plenty of pictures. Zoey will be visiting again soon.”
About: I have tons of animal experience, from chickens to horses and everything in between. Many of my high school years were spent in dog and cat rescue, and I have taken multiple animal science courses in college so I am very comfortable with a wide range of medical and behavioral needs. I'm not scared of by or wary of animals that might need more time to warm up. I'm also very active and outdoorsy and am always looking to have an animal join me on my various adventures and outings if that is what they are into. I work with dogs and cats of all sizes, energy levels, and ages, and can give oral medication, injections, or do bladder expression if needed. I am currently on summer break from my college classes and working part-time remotely from home, so I have a lot of flexibility in terms of scheduling. I’m comfortable playing, feeding, giving medication, crating, or anything else your pet might need. I treat all animals with the love and respect they deserve.
“Gracie had a fantastic time with Robyn! She had her picture taken frequently with daily updates sent to me. She made friends with June, Poppy, and Sadie. Robyn was so gracious to make topping for Gracie's kibble, when mom didn't send her with enough. Best of all, Robyn volunteered to bathe Gracie before pick-up so she would smell nice for us!! We look forward to many more stays with Robyn!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and many other kinds of animals for years! Part of my background is in professional pet care and doggie day cares! I have worked with animals with potty issues to behavioral ones, I would love to get to know you and your dog to work on how best to support them! Don’t fret if your baby has medical issues, I have plenty of experience with administering various kinds of medications if needed! I am currently working part time so I have lots of time to play with and check in on your pets! My job has very flexible hours, giving me more options for how best to take care of your furry friends! I have a small yard but lots of places to take your furry friend on walks! Lots of room inside for them to run and play. I can crate your dogs and even separate multiple dogs into separate rooms for sleep or feeding if that is a concern!
“I felt very comfortable leaving my extra large, hyper puppy for the first time. Sara was reliable, responsive, and professional. She clearly has a depth of experience with all kinds of dogs and I felt %100 confident that my pup was in great hands.”
About: I grew up with an English bulldog and cared for him his whole life. Growing up family always trusted me to take care of their pets as I had watched over a golden retriever and Rottweiler. I currently own two border Collie mixes and would love to take care of your friendly dog. I have trained my dogs and all my pets have been well mannered, well tempered, and well behaved. I don't consider myself a trainer but I was able to walk my English bulldog to walk off leash and various commands and my two pups are making quick strides to do the same and more. I would ideally take care of your pets over the weekend as I would be able to give my full undivided attention to them. I am open to taking care of pets during the week with the understanding that I work full time remotely and would not be able to focus in on them as much as I would on a weekend. I love to go on hikes, runs, and go to dog friendly social settings. I would love to bring your pet along for the fun. I frequently take my dogs outside to play fetch and go on walks in my community and would love to include yours. I live in a two story condo with access to a large unfenced lawn and neighboring parks two minutes away from home. My home has a fenced in patio where my dogs have access to through the night to use the restroom with access through a doggy door. During the day I take them out often in the large communal lawn and neighboring parks. I am off Southwood near sinsheimer Park. I have access to large spaces where fetch can be done both on or off leash. I typically play with my pets off leash and would love to incorporate your pet into our play sessions should they have good recall. I have multiple large doggy beds and your pup can be crated or fenced in the common areas depending on their comfort levels. Dogs are fed in the mornings at 8 and in the afternoons at 5. I take them out for routine walks in the morning and afternoon with outdoor time/ fetch midday around lunch. I also take them out for a quick potty break at night before we all hit the hay.
“Marla is so calm and kind- her love of dogs shows in the great care she gave our two pups! This was the first time we left one of our dogs with a sitter and he seemed to do so well and clearly happy with the care. We hope to have Marla back to take care of our pups on our next trip away.”
“5 Stars for Tatum. I could tell that our pup Stompy was in good hands because his tail was wagging furiously when first meeting Tatum and her partner. We were sent some fun photos of Stompy playing and relaxing at a local Dog Beach and learned that he was comfortable enough to get into the water which is a first for our dog who has always had a water phobia. We returned to find a very happy dog. I highly recommend Tatum. She is a dog whisperer!”
“This was a last minute request when we came into town for a wedding. Met and made introductions the day of the request and booked for the following night. Throughout, Kara was quick with communications and made our two dogs feel right at home. The relaxed atmosphere of Kara's home put our dogs at ease. Next time we're in the area, no question we'll reach out to Kara for boarding.”
About: I provide attentive, personalized care, maintain routines, give regular updates, create a calm home environment, and treat every pet with genuine patience and affection. Thanks! I work part time, usually in the mornings. I have ample time to play with pups, give plenty of potty breaks, and provide them food. I have a partially fenced yard and one very friendly pup to keep yours company. I can also provide great care at you home too.
“Tori was caring, capable and the dogs seemed very cared for. She followed all their directions for care. Her place has lots of dirt but they were very clean when we returned . She was very flexible with my dates. I would book again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Los Osos
Tara and Jed had our dog, Obi, over the holidays and we could not be more pleased with their care of him! They sent updates everyday (including pictures) and made Obi a part of their family. They were extremely quick to respond and answered every question we had during the pre-booking process. They are clearly great dog owners themselves, and showed that experience in their care of Obi. We would absolutely leave Obi with Tara and Jed again and we’re so happy we found them!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Los Osos is $45 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $77 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 175 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Los Osos. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
97% of sitters in Los Osos can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. 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 Los Osos 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 Los Osos.
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 Osos 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 , 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 .
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.
