“Colleen was great with my little guy and her pups are so sweet! Plenty of photos and updates through his entire stay so I knew he was settling in nicely, getting pets and relaxing. He was on a walk with her when I met them for pickup and I could tell he was very comfortable!”
“We love Roxy so much! Champy gets so excited when he knows he’s going for a visit. Roxy stays in touch and sends lots of adorable pics :) Not only is my dog being cared for while I am away but he is truly living his best life with Roxy!”
“This was the second time we left out cat with Emily and we will keep using her services in the future! We really appreciate daily pictures and videos and how kind and caring Emily is! :)”
“Jess and Max were amazing!! Communicative, responsive, provided tons of great pictures and a ton of peace of mind. It was Ellie’s first time staying with them and we will definitely be reaching out again! Ellie just fell in love with them and loved all the endless cuddles they provided.”
“We are so grateful that we found Lucero. She gave wonderful care to our dog. It was clear from the updates and videos that he was loved, comfortable and well cared while we were away. We could tell that our dog was happy and felt at home with her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving and caring dog sitter.”
“Thank you Rosario and Ryan for another wonderful stay🥰 It was Bisco’s first overnight stay with them, and she sometimes doesn’t eat because she can get a little nervous/anxious at a stranger’s house, but she ate her meal with them just fine. Thank you for providing a clean, warm, comfortable, and safe space for Bisco🙏🏻 Will book again and highly recommend for other fur parents!”
About: I’ve cared for pets for 10+ years, and friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and look after their dogs while they’re away. I’m calm, patient, and very detail-oriented, so I follow your pet’s routine closely (meals, potty schedule, walk pace, and house rules). I’m also great with shy or anxious pets and always move at their pace to build trust. You’ll receive reliable updates with photos every visit so you can feel completely at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I’m able to be flexible depending on your pet’s needs. I can do morning and evening visits, longer hangouts when needed, and I’m responsive with communication throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule—especially for pets who do best with consistency. If you have specific timing requests (feeding times, longer walks, or extra playtime), just let me know and I’ll plan around it. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm energy in every home. I follow instructions closely—food portions, leash rules, and any special care needs. I live in a luxury apartment community with access to a private, fully fenced dog park for safe potty breaks and supervised playtime (with your permission). I’m careful with doors and transitions to prevent escapes, and I always keep pets secure and comfortable. You’ll receive consistent photo updates and quick communication if anything seems off.
“I am not sure I can express how wonderful Jasmine and her partner are in this review space. We have an old dog that is very particular about which humans he associates. In addition, we have not had to board him outside of family in nearly 8 years. Jasmine made an immediate connection with our dog, and gave us constant updates and pictures. Her care is made our vacation possible. We felt so comfortable that not only she would take good care of our dog but also do everything she could to his stay enjoyable. She alleviated all of our anxieties about leaving our 16 year guy with someone new. I cannot say enough about her!”
“Chelsi has a lovely family, her children and her dog Leo are super super friendly to my dog. Chelsi also takes care of my dog into the very details. Sending photos/video updates many times throughout the day. Makes us worry less and she's super reliable”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds for my entire life, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and spend quality time with their pets while they’re away. I’m attentive, reliable, and genuinely love building trust with animals, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy in my care. I pay close attention to routines, personalities, and any special needs so each dog receives personalized, loving care. I have a hybrid work schedule, which allows me to be home part of the week and provide attentive care. I’m available for boarding on Fridays and weekends, and I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, walks, and playtime while in my care. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine. I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for pets in my home. While I don’t have a yard, I take dogs out for frequent walks and bathroom breaks throughout the day to ensure they get plenty of exercise and stimulation. I closely follow feeding, walking, and care instructions, can crate pets if needed, and prioritize supervision, communication, and your pet’s comfort and safety at all times.
“Sierra was wonderful with Archie! She was very communicative throughout his stay and sent plenty of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. You could genuinely tell she cared about him and treated him with so much love and attention. We felt completely comfortable knowing Archie was in such good hands and would absolutely book with her again!”
“David was fantastic! We received wonderful photos throughout the stay and we felt happy knowing Felix was well taken care of while we were away. Will definitely use him in the future!”
“I'm so glad to have met Helena and to now have her in my network of puppy support moving forward. My dog ended up having an upset stomach and made a few 💩 messes. Helena kept me in the loop with lots of photos and texts, she put him on a clean diet with rice and some pumpkin to help with his digestion. She gave him baths and brushed him to keep him clean and tidy. Smokey has a longer curly coat so I really appreciated that care. Smokey and her dog Butter seemed to get along great and I would definitely recommend Helena for pup care! She went above and beyond to make sure my pup and I were comfortable and taken care of (emotionally and physically ha!). Thanks again Helena!”
“Brandy was awesome! She watched our pup for a little over 2 weeks and even took on a couple more days short notice. Ellie came back very happy and well loved. I hi bb Lu recommend Brandy!”
“We were so happy to have Laura caring for our dog, Eggsy, and we know he was happy too! She was very gentle and caring with him and took him on great hikes and walks in parks. He is a big, strong-willed beagle, but we were able to leave in peace knowing she would take good care of him!”
“Su and her family took great care of my precious girl! She has a lot of energy and Su provided several opportunities and avenues for Zo to get her energy out. We’ll definitely be returning customers. Thanks, Su!”
“There are no words proper enough to express my gratitude. Emelyn was a true angel! My little beagle got sick during his overnight stay and she was very understanding, compassionate and communicative throughout the process. I will definitely use her as much as possible and consider myself lucky to have found such an understanding and reasonable dog sitter! Thank you again Emelyn.”
“Josh was great with DJ. We had a big event at our house and Josh took him for half the day. He sent pictures, Dj was well taken care of. I highly recommend Josh.”
“Nicole was amazing! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates, and was incredibly flexible when my travel plans unexpectedly changed. I’d definitely book with her again!”

Highly recommend Emily! My dog, Kinsale, has stayed with her many times, for stays ranging from a couple of days to 10+. Emily is always communicative and sends lots of pictures - Kinsale always looks like she’s having a blast. Every time I drop her off, she’s excited to see Emily and happy to head inside. I know she loves being there, and I’ll always trust Emily to watch her.
We are from out of town and very hesitant to leave our Ridley to someone unfamiliar, but Lu took away our worry as soon as we met her. She is very friendly and kind to our furbaby. We were updated with pictures which we truly appreciated. We would definitely reach out to her again when we are in Los Angeles to take care of our baby.
Ryan was absolutely amazing with our pups, Kona and Daisy, during our wedding weekend! He made the entire weekend so stress-free because we knew they were in such good hands. He sent us regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and let us enjoy our wedding knowing they were happy and well taken care of. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend Ryan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable. We will definitely be using him again! 🐾
Katherine was warm and friendly, I knew my dog would be right at home with her. Katherine was also flexible and accommodating to my ever-changing schedule, and was easy to communicate with. She sent updates and photos often. Thank you Katherine for taking great care of my pup!!
Thank you, Pia!!!❤️ We felt so lucky to know that Murphy was in great hands while we were away! He loved spending time with Pia and her sweet dog, Stella! Pia sent great updates throughout our trip so we could see how much fun he was having! Murphy has been cuddling with a toy Pia gave him since we picked him up last week.❤️🐾 I know Murphy is looking forward to another stay at Pia's!! 🐶❤️🐾
Melanie was amazing!! I'm so grateful she was available for a last minute booking and so flexible on pick up and drop off times. She sent photos and updates regularly which helped me feel less anxious since Maggi is a puppy and this was her first time overnight without her sister. Thank you Melanie for loving my baby!
Carmen is absolutely wonderful with our dog, Astro!! She provides such a cozy, friendly, loving environment for him. Astro is a generally shy, anxious, sweet senior dog with some specific needs around arthritis and his gut, and Carmen navigates this so smoothly. Her dog, Cathy, is very sweet and gives Astro the space he needs which he loves. Carmen is wonderful to communicate with and has been very gracious about last minute bookings which we have been grateful for. Highly recommend her to anyone, but especially if you have a shy older dog who needs a quiet place to chill! Our dog has never settled into a dog sitter's place so easily!
Kaitlind is a great sitter! Mali was immediately comfortable with her and she had so much fun throughout her stay. Communication was great & Kaitlind was always so kind and quick to respond. She was super accommodating & helpful administering my pup’s medication during her stay. We look forward to using her again!
I can’t say enough good things about Malea! She has watched my mini Goldendoodle multiple times now, and I always feel completely comfortable leaving him with her. She is incredibly reliable, responsible, and genuinely caring. This last time, I actually messed up the timing on my end, and Malea was so understanding that she literally rearranged her own plans to accommodate me. That meant so much to me and really showed how dependable she is. She also sends pictures and updates, which I absolutely love because it lets me know he’s happy and being well taken care of while I’m away. It’s so nice having someone I can truly trust with my dog. I will definitely be using Malea again and again! 🐾❤️
Mia was absolutely incredible watching our pup! It was the first time being away from her since we first brought her home and the entire weekend mia was keeping us updated with so many cute photos and videos and it was such a great feeling knowing we could enjoy our weekend away knowing Sunny was having so much fun with her and her new best friend, Duke! Every worry went out the window immediately knowing how much fun and attention Sunny was getting. Every picture showed how comfy Sunny was and it was just such a good feeling knowing she was in such good hands! We will DEFINITELY be rebooking as soon as we have more travel planned!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Marina del Rey 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 9,149 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Marina del Rey. 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 Marina del Rey 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 Marina del Rey 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 Marina del Rey 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 Marina del Rey.
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 Marina del Rey 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.
