“Kolten and Julia were great pet sitters for our mini schnauzer, Luna! They cared for her as if she were their own dog. They made her feel right at home from the very first moment! They kept us updated on her activities the whole time we were away. We would definitely book future adventures with them!”
“I highly recommend Paula! ❤️ She took such wonderful care of my dog and treated him with so much love, patience, and attention. I felt comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. She was caring, responsible, and attentive to his needs. I’m so grateful for the amazing care she gave him, and I would absolutely trust her with my dog again. Highly recommended!”
“Lauren was excellent, accommodating and so caring with my reactive foster dog. I loved getting regular updates and could see how happy and safe Daisy was with her. I’d definitely board with her again!”
“My dog Kona loved staying at Chris’ while I was away for a couple days! Chris is a very kind and flexible dog sitter! Before Kona’s stay, he organized a time to meet so that she could become familiar with his 3 sweet dogs. He kept open communication throughout Kona’s stay and walked her each day! I am very thankful and for his care for my dog and hope to book with him again next time Kona is in need of boarding! I highly recommend Chris when considering having your dog watched through Rover. My experience was impressive and worry free!”
“Absolutely awesome job watching Linguini! Pictures and updates were fantastic, I could tell he was having a good time and he was well taken care of! He currently has allergies and she made sure he got his special food and allergy meds! Will definitely use for next time!”
“Huda was great! Milo loved his long weekend staying with Huda! Milo got to meet some new friends on his walks and Huda gave plenty of updates and photos while Milo stayed with her!”
“Caitlin was very attentive with our senior dog Biscuit. He was so comfortable in her care he actually kept turning back when we came rollicking him up, lol. I will definitely use Caitlin again!”
About: I’ve had animals pretty much all of my life, and everyone says that I have a caring aura that children and animals gravitate to. I’m very kind and gentle with animals and want the best care for them. I am currently actively looking for a job. I will have 40 hour weeks, but I will always make time for your animal when watching it. I am always respectful about my client’s home. Make sure it’s spotless. Make sure everything is taken care of while I am in the presence of the home
“Bella had another wonderful stay with Sally! We loved getting photo and video updates. Also, loved the fact that Sally was readily available for the last minute stay. I contacted Sally and our Bella was there with less than two hours notice. Thanks again, Sally!”
“My Labradoodle Blu had a great time with Awa and she took really good care of him over the weekend. He’s always anxious in a new environment but he settled in nicely. Awa even sent me a video of him within an hour of drop off. Thanks again Awa. Blu will be back again soon.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner and caring for friends’ and family’s dogs since I was in high school! I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and matching their energy to give them the best care possible! I’m currently a post grad looking for a part time job! Therefore my schedule is open for now, which gives me plenty of time to look after your dogs for longer periods of time, if needed! I’m overly cautious! When it comes to someone else’s fur babies I want to make sure that they’re properly taken care of and also having fun at the same time! I’m someone who likes to send photos and or update to the owners (if they wanted of course) to follow up with how they’re doing!
“This was Bou’s first time with Nadine and she had a blast! Nadine sent me daily updates with photos and videos of Bou and her dogs playing. Bou had a great time and I felt comfortable leaving my baby with her during my trip. I will definitely book again!”
“Rachel was great! She was easy to communicate and she sent me updates with pics. She has a few dogs so it was fun to know that my dog got to make new friends. Will definitely repeat.”
“Neela was awesome! She spent lots of quality time with our pit. She was great about sending us pictures and videos during his stay. He went on walks, sunbathed in the backyard, and got to be her sidekick at home while she worked. She even gifted us with a Polaroid picture of him playing as a sweet personal touch! It is now hanging up in the dashboard of my car. So cute! ❤️ we’ve already asked if she will dog sit again for a longer time while we go to Jamaica. We knew he was loved and happy! That’s all we could ask for.”
“Alex was able to watch Margaret over an extended period of time, covering the holidays, which we really appreciated as we had an international trip booked. We did not have to stress about Margaret during that time because Margaret was so well taken care of. In fact, she was sad when Alex dropped her off! During her stay with Alex, Margaret got lots of activity, leading to lots of (cute) and well-deserved naps and cuddles. Margaret says: Alex is the best!”
“Patrick was a great caretaker for my dog! He kept communication open so it was easy to plan drop-off and pick-up times. I got daily updates and plenty of adorable photos. I would love for Oliver to stay again the next time we are out of town!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Martinez
Paula was absolutely amazing! Communication was easy from start to finish, she was incredibly flexible, and it’s clear she genuinely loves the pups she cares for. She sent tons of pictures and updates throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. 100% recommend Paula to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pup like their own. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾🤎
We have had multiple great experiences with Tamiko. She is very responsive, gives multiple updates during the sitting and you can tell she has a genuine love for dogs. Our dog always looks to have an amazing time while there and is completely tuckered out when he’s back. She’s the best sitter on Rover we’ve used and will continue to use whenever available.
Kolten and Julia were great pet sitters for our mini schnauzer, Luna! They cared for her as if she were their own dog. They made her feel right at home from the very first moment! They kept us updated on her activities the whole time we were away. We would definitely book future adventures with them!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Martinez is $37 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $70 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,463 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Martinez. 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.
93% of sitters in Martinez 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 Martinez 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 Martinez.
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 Martinez 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.
