About: At K9s Only West LA, our goal is to provide a happy, healthy, and safe environment for your pet when they're away from home. We're pleased to offer the Health Care Commitment Program, which reimburses up to $500 for eligible expenses incurred during your pet’s stay. Enrollment is automatic when your pet attends daycare, covering treatments or diagnoses for incidents that occur during their stay or within 5 days after departure. If veterinary care is needed, we’ll attempt to consult with your pet’s primary vet. If unavailable, we work with local veterinarians to address any medical issues.
“Carmen was wonderful with my little princess. She took great care of her and I feel like she listened to me and was very good at communication with me while she was taking care of Uma. Thank you Carmen”
“Angela did an outstanding job while taking care of our dog for a week. I was kept updated on a daily basis about Ralphie’s behavior and any concerns or questions. Angela sent me many photos of Ralphie at home and from walks. She gave him a bath before we picked him up. Angela accommodated and was very clear about the drop off and pickup instructions. No fuss. Although, this was my first time that we had Angela taking care of Ralphie, I was completely relieved. Ralphie was very happy and was probably disappointed having to leave Angela and her paw-friendly home. Angela will be my go-to pet-sitter in the future and we greatly appreciate her. Thank you Angela for your amazing care!”
“I just moved to the area and needed a new sitter; luckily I found Lydia & Benji and they were amazing! They talked to me about my dog and his needs before booking so I felt a lot more at ease knowing they were prepared for my dog’s quirks. I also got lots of photo updates of my pup having fun and making friends. I highly recommend Lydia and Benji and will hopefully be booking them the next time I need a sitter!”
“Brittany was amazing with our dog Luna! It was our first time booking with Rover and we felt so comfortable while we were away that Luna was in the best of hands! She sent us a ton of adorable updates, photos, and videos cuddling and on walks and playing with other dogs. Luna also never eats much when she’s not home staying at other places and Brittany sent photos of Luna licking her bowl clean which made us so happy! Definitely book with Brittany she is the best, Luna will be back!”

“Ryan was great! He accommodated a last minute need when my sitter fell through and he was wonderful. Kept me updated and very responsive when I reached out. Finn came back to me happy as ever - will absolutely be booking Ryan again!”
“MIA was wonderful! My dog could not have been in better hands. Updated us through out the stay with messages and pics. Arrived to find a very happy puppy at pick-up. Highly recommend.”
“Alicia and her 2 boys took wonderful care of my golden retriever. Rilee. It's such a comfort to know that my dog was so well cared for and loved while I was out of town. I will definitely be using alicia when I go out of town again.”
“We had a great experience with Timand Andrea watching Penny!! They were super nice and I felt totally comfortable with them watching my fur baby! Will def be using them in the future :)”
“Andrew and his family took such great care of our skittish rescue dachshund who had never been kenneled nor left with strangers before. Andrew was VERY responsive and kept us up to date on how our little guy was doing over the five days. Andrew was kind enough to agree to a quick meet and greet a month prior to make sure both our dogs got along (thankfully they did as Andrew’s dog is super sweet). We will definitely look to Andrew and his family to watch over our pet again in the future.”
“Garima was super flexible with us when our flight got delayed 3 times and it was great to know Oona was in good hands. We loved the video updates and could tell in her voice that she genuinely cared about Oona’s happiness and wellbeing. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Jake has stayed with Bethanie 3 times now and he always has the best time!! We left him with her for 9 days and It was so nice not to worry about him. She sends multiple pictures and updates daily! Your dog will always be in good hands!! :)”
“Guyeon and Thomas were very communicative throughout the process while boarding my dog with them. They shared lots of photos, videos, and updates which I so appreciated! I would definitely love to have my pup stay with them again in the future”
“Katherine was great with our pup Stormie and when I came to pick her up it was obvious she already missed her new friend. Katherine followed all instructions and sent us photos of Stormie, even taking her hiking in our doggy-hiking-backpack. It was very clear that Stormie enjoyed her time with Katherine, and for such a long time apart (2-week-dog-boarding) Katherine took great care of our baby. I would recommend her services to anyone else who needs long-term care.”
“Elizabeth was a life saver for me and my husband. Our dog, Pluto, is an extremely nervous and fearful rescue dog, so leaving him is stressful for us. He's afraid of people, leash reactive, and picky with other dogs. But after meeting Elizabeth, we were way more at ease. She totally understands dealing with nervous dogs. She was patient with him and let him interact at his own pace. She sent tons of updates with photos and videos. We would definitely send Pluto to her again! Also, her boyfriend Aaron had to help out with Pluto one of the days (she told us that before we booked - totally upfront about everything) and he was great too! We really appreciate everything they did. Highly recommend!”
“Jamie was incredibly attentive, communicative, and caring with my boy! She sent pictures and kept me updated throughout the day. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”

Dog Boarding FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
Only Rover provides comprehensive Mar Vista dog boarding options that meet your dog's unique needs. Anxious or special needs dogs who prefer a 1:1 environment are a good fit for in-home dog boarding, while energetic pups who benefit from socialization and activity are a good fit for dog boarding facilities.
Typically, dog boarding sitters on Rover respond in under an hour, so you should be matched with the perfect sitter for you and your dog in no time!
Experience can vary widely from sitter to sitter, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing sitters available in Mar Vista.
Rover makes it easy to find Mar Vista dog boarding sitters to provide loving care from their own home. The background-checked, 5-star sitters you can find on Rover will welcome your dog into their home when you’re away—whether it’s just for the weekend or longer. Dog boarding is great for:
- Dogs of all ages and abilities, including puppies
- Pet parents looking for a safe, loving alternative to a kennel
- Dogs who’d love to socialize with their sitter’s pets
Yes! Sitters joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog boarding sitter through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your sitter has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your pet is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.
