“Yiyu was extremely accommodating with our last minute booking. She was extremely communicative with sending updates and pictures. We felt PeeWee was in GREAT hands which allowed us to have a worry and stress free time away. We will definitely be booking with Yiyu again! Thank you for taking care of our baby!”
About: With over 30 years of caring for both dogs and cats, I have a deep understanding of animal behavior and know how to make pets feel safe, calm, loved, and comfortable, especially when their owners are away or at work. I offer more than basic pet sitting; I create a nurturing environment where pets receive personalized attention, affection, exercise, and emotional support. My background in healthy lifestyle coaching also helps me stay attentive, active, organized, and compassionate with every pet I care for. I am particularly patient with senior pets, shy animals, and pets that need extra reassurance or consistency in their routines. It fits into my schedule because I can spend time with them at the beach, the dog park, walking around town, or just hopping in the car to visit a larger dog park. Life is good when time isn't an issue. My home is fenced and offers plenty of space for outdoor play. Plus, we spend most of our time outside. I cook homemade food for my fur baby and always take a nap after a long walk. You can feel reassured knowing your fur babies will have someone present, attentive, experienced, and caring while they are away.
“Shardae was amazing! Prior to Onyx's stay with her, we met to introduce ourselves and ensure a good fit. It was a great meeting, and a week later Onyx was in her care. She was incredibly communicative, sending pictures and updates at least twice a day. I had absolutely no worries while Onyx was with her. I highly recommend Shardae!”
“Christy and her family were so great and welcoming to our pup. He was loved, well cared for, and so happy when we picked him up that we knew he was in the perfect place. We feel lucky to have found Christy’s home and have no doubt we will use her again.”
“Kimberlee is amazing! She took such great care of our pup and sent daily check-ins and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We have a very high energy Aussie, and somehow she managed to tire her out, which is no easy feat! It was clear our dog was happy, well cared for, and getting plenty of attention. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kimberlee again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Chyna was amazing!! We needed a sitter for 4 nights (on a holiday weekend) at the very last minute and she was so accommodating! Made sure my dog got lots of outdoor time and sent lots of pictures and updates. She was very kind and professional.”
“Bear had such a wonderful time with Vanessa and her family! She took such good care of him and sent lots of photos along the way. Can’t recommend Vanessa enough and will definitely be returning 💕”
“Angela is wonderful with our pets. We call her The Dog Whisperer. 😃 She's amazing with our Toffee Doggie and with the drop ins for our kitties. If you want your pet to be loved while you're away look no further. She's the absolute best! Reggie”
About: My approach with any animal is to use positive reinforcement and a lot of patience. I grew up with dogs, cats and various other animals. I was heavily into 4-H and adopted a wild burro, raised pigs and joined the dog training group with my shelter dog, a German Shepard Samoyed mix. Currently, we have two rescue dogs. Whenever we host our neighbor's dog, all the dogs have a blast and act like they are having a sleepover. In addition to caring for dogs, I also have experience with a diabetic cat that required two daily shots. My husband and I work from home so there is always someone around. We take the dogs out for frequent potty breaks throughout the day. We also live near Valley Park and the green belt which are perfect for longer walks. In addition to my husband, I have two teenage sons who will also be here to play with your pup. We currently have two welcoming adopted dogs, Koko, who is the older wiser pup bringing calm energy, and Mango, who very lovable and wants to be friends with every human and dog. At our condo, the dogs have access to two decks in the back, perfect for quiet naps in the sun, and one deck in the front overlooking all the action that passes by on the street. If your pup likes to play tug-of-war, Mango will happily play and share her toys.
“Deeann was a great dogsitter. I had the chance to meet her before dropping off my dog and instantly knew he would be in good hands. She sent photos everyday and took my dog walking / to the park several times a day giving him plenty of exercise. Thank you Deeann!”
“Jen was a good choice for us to leave our little dog Pilot with. She kepted a good watch over him, sent us lots of pictures and he looked happy. Thank you for taking good care of Pilot.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner and caregiver to dogs for over 50 years. I am a nurturing and responsible person. I have experience with senior dog care as well as puppy care. I am a very active person who loves to walk and play with your furry friend. I’m a retired mother of 3 and have a very active lifestyle. I am flexible and available throughout the week. I also live close to LAX for easy drop off and pick ups. I am a nurturing and responsible person and I would love to walk and play with your pet. I have a home with a fenced in yard. I have room for them to play and be active. I also have space to your crate dog and always keep them safe. I am walking distance to many parks.
“Emily was such a great pet sitter for my dog! She sent me updates with photos/vids daily which definitely eased my worries of leaving my senior dog with someone. I knew she was in great hands. Emily was also great at making sure Cleo had her daily walks and her regular schedule. She is a true gem and I'm so glad I found her (also in such close proximity) and would highly recommend her and use her for a future stay! :) thanks again Emily!”
“3rd time booking with Gabrielle! She keeps us updated daily with photos and has great communication. Pick up and drop off are always smooth. Loki is excited everytime he gets to stay with her! Will definitley keep booking with Gabrielle!”
“We are so grateful to have found Jeanne to care for our dog, Luglio. From the very beginning, she was warm, responsive, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease while we were away, sending regular updates and the sweetest photos that showed just how happy and relaxed Luglio was in her care. Jeanne went above and beyond to make sure Luglio felt at home, giving him plenty of love, walks, and attention. It was obvious she treated him like one of her own. He came back to us happy, calm, and well cared for—exactly what every dog parent hopes for. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jeanne again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and loving dog sitter!”
“She and her family was super nice and good care to my dog. She sent Text messages everyday what my pup done today. That helped a lot for my family to understanding she was enjoyed and staying safely.”
“Birgitta, her husband and son provided Scully with a great weekend away from home! Consistent updates in the form of photos and quick messages on their activities for the day helped us be very comfortable that Scully was being well taken care of. I would recommend Birgitta to anyone looking for great pet care, and will certainly be booking her in the future!”

Jinae was absolutely wonderful with Kimi and Kraig! 💜 She kept us updated with photos and messages, and it was clear how much love and attention she gave them. She really took the time to understand their individual personalities and made sure they were comfortable and happy while we were away. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such caring hands. Jinae truly cares for pups from the heart, and we’re so grateful to her. We would absolutely trust her with our babies again! 🐾💕
This was our second time booking with Kimberly, and we can confirm that she is the best! She has a very warm and inviting disposition and treats our fur baby with so much care and friendly enthusiasm. He enjoyed his very own staycation by the beach, at the park and making new fur friends. We look forward to the opportunity to book with Kimberly again.
Leisa was absolutely amazing with Tiggy! She treated him and loved him like he was her own, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. She sent regular updates, asked all the right questions, and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable. She took him on walks along the Strand and to puppy playdates, which he loved! We couldn’t recommend Leisa more and would absolutely love to have her watch Tiggy again in the future. 💕🐾
What a relief to find Amanda! We were traveling through California from Europe, with a trip already planned, and finding Amanda was such a relief. She responded right away and was so welcoming to Cali from the start. She kept us updated throughout the whole stay, and everything went smoothly. You could tell Cali was almost sad to leave, she clearly loved the beautiful area where Amanda lives, and she made a friend too, beautiful Rosie. It was so sweet to see! Thank you so much for everything, Amanda 😊
Helen is great - we needed about 2 weeks of boarding on pretty short notice and Helen stepped up. She is great about sending videos and its really comforting being halfway around the world and seeing your dog happy, having fun and being well taken care of. Will absolutely leave our dog with her again.
Sean was perfect for our dog! We were nervous to leave her at a new place because she is getting older and tends to be quite anxious. Sean was great at making her comfortable and creating a calm environment for her. He gave her daily medicine and sent us pictures of her having a nice vacation. We are planning to have Sean watch her again on an upcoming long trip!
Matthew and his wife were incredible! They were very accommodating and loving towards my girl! Their backyard was perfect for running around and playing with all the other doggies! Ladybird was worn out when she got back from her mini vacation and was sad to say goodbye to boots and the other friends! We are very pleased with the care they gave and I would highly recommend for anyone that needs some help with their fur babies.
Garrison was absolutely amazing with Krunch! From the beginning, he had great communication and made everything feel easy and stress-free. He was kind, patient, and very easygoing, which made me feel confident that Krunch was in great hands. Garrison sent regular picture and video updates throughout Krunch’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind and allowed me to see how happy and comfortable he was. Krunch came home happy and well-loved after getting plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention. It was clear that Garrison truly cared about him and treated him like his own. I really appreciated the love and care he gave Krunch, and I would highly recommend Garrison to anyone looking for a dependable, thoughtful, and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Manhattan Beach on Rover is $64.2 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 9,331 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Manhattan Beach. 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.
94% of Manhattan Beach 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 Manhattan Beach 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 Manhattan Beach 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 Manhattan Beach.
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 Manhattan Beach 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.
