“Katie and Jason were amazing hosts for Apollo! They were really sweet with him and very communicative, which was super helpful. I’m sure Apollo would love to stay with them again!”
“Communication from the get go was great and I was proactively given regular photo and video updates. Oukley seemed to have a good time playing with the other dogs and seemed well taken care of. Would book with Yu-Liang and Yu-Ting again.”
“My dogs stayed with Anna for three weeks while I recover from surgery. She was so patient with my two dogs and gave them lots of affection and loving care. Not only she sent me lots photos and texts communication, she let me visit them at her home. I’m so grateful for Anna, so I can heal properly and peacefully during these three weeks.”
“Sandra and Jose were excellent with my two girls - Ellie and Lucy. They were patient, kind, and attentive with them and they sent many updates regarding how they were getting along and settling in. I highly recommend them and I will definitely be using them again for future stays.”
“Ivan was the best person to care for our temperamental, special needs dog, Otis. Otis is not comfortable with new people, but Ivan gave him his space, had patience with him and ultimately they became best buddies! My pup has Addisons disease and has an injured hind leg—Ivan took great care of him and made special accommodations for him so he would be comfortable and safe. It’s so obvious Ivan loves animals and has a kind heart for them. All these things allowed me and my partner the peace of mind we needed to enjoy our vacation knowing Otis was in such great hands. We would not hesitate to have Ivan care for our fur baby again. Thank you, Ivan!”
“Winnie was amazing taking care of our mini Bernedoodle for about a week in her home. Our dog can be a picky eater, especially when away from home, but Winnie made sure she ate and was great at communicating with us. We've already booked future stays. Thanks, Winnie!”
“Christine was fantastic with “Bo.” She kept us updated throughout the evening with pictures and stories while we were gone. Bo was very comfortable with Christine. She was genuinely sweet with him and made him feel comfortable right away. We highly recommend Christine to anyone who needs a caring person to take care of their four legged family members.”
“Irina was a fantastic dog sitter for our Sophie! She clearly loved her, and we could tell Sophie was happy and well cared for the whole time. Irina sent lots of updates, which gave us great peace of mind. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her!”
“Michael was a great sitter. He provided daily updates with pictures and videos. He accommodated Perseus’s puppy energy and also did some light training with him. He also gave tips on his behavior going forward. Highly recommended!”
“Mario is amazing! It was our first time boarding Mocha (our 6 months pup), so needless to say, we were very nervous with how it would go. Mario sent pictures everyday and she looked like she was having so much fun with the other dogs and laying on the beach. By the time we came to pick her up, she looked very happy and acted nothing out of the ordinary. We're definitely going to come back to Mario if and when we need to board her in the future. Thank you!!”
“Stephanie was great! She sent many updates and photos and videos during Bear’s stay. It was clear that Bear had a fun time with her and her friends. We would definitely stay with Stephanie again!”
“Yvonne and her partner took such good care of Benny! He barely wanted to leave. lol She provided frequent updates and made sure he got plenty of exercise. Thanks for everything <3”
“Leticia is always great with our border collie! We feel very much at ease knowing that he’s safe and sound in her care, and she sends great updates so we don’t have to worry.”
“Leeun and her family were one of the best Rover experiences we have had. They are kind and very responsive, easy to communicate with and sent lots of updates on our dog. They were very attentive to his needs, probably giving him more attention and walks than we can at home . We would have them dog sit again in a heartbeat!”
“First time I booked with Kitty and I’m very happy with her responsibility, she sends me daily photos & informs me that my little chihuahua is well taken care of.”
“Renee and Chris are very trusted sister. Because my dolls medical condition, I had to be picky to find new sitter not to have multiple other dogs. They only accepted my dogs and no other dogs. Renee made sure to provide the medication and she is very familiar with. They sent us a lot of pictures and video and we were very happy to know how our dogs were doing every day. Renee and Chris are highly recommended and I will ask their availability when we need our dog sitter next time for sure.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Millbrae
Yvonne was great, helped us out with a last minute stay for our dog and accommodated our drop off and pick up needs. Great communication throughout and we really appreciated the updates and our dog seemed to be right at home with Yvonne and her husband. Will definitely enlist her help looking after our dog again.
Francesca took good care of our basset, Biscotti. Though there were several other dogs she was caring for at the same time, Biscotti preferred to follow Francesca around (probably because of the treats!) Francesca took her to the park and on walks and was a responsive communicator. We really appreciated her caring for our pup.
Yu-Liang and Yi-Ting took excellent care of our two dogs over the holiday weekend. From start to finish, communication was outstanding. Before the stay, we met at a local park so they could get to know us and our dogs—a 10 lb Pomeranian and a 17 lb mixed breed. They have a very organized spreadsheet that covers everything about each dog, including medications, feeding instructions, potty schedule, routines, and other important details. Once we filled it out, it made communication incredibly easy, especially using Google Docs. Throughout the stay, they sent us daily photo and video updates, and they responded to every text message and phone call almost immediately. Our dogs looked happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Their home is in a nice, safe neighborhood, and we appreciated the extra security of the gated front entrance and enclosed side yard. Most importantly, Yu-Liang and Yi-Ting are genuine dog lovers and incredibly kind people. We feel very lucky to have found them and will absolutely book with them again. Highly recommended!
Lida was a fantastic caregiver for my one-year-old. She took exceptional care of her, making sure she got plenty of walks, playtime, attention, and affection. She kept me updated every day with photos and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I never once worried about my dog in her care, and I would absolutely use her services again if I’m ever back in the area. I can’t recommend her highly enough.
Brandon sends lots of great photos and frequent updates of our boy. We can tell our dog is excited to get dropped off with Brandon and that gives us a lot of confidence and peace of mind! We would definitely recommend Brandon to other owners looking for a dog sitter.
I’ve had several dog sitters for pinto and also checked out a few dog boarders in the area and Christine by far has been the best. I initially chose her since I liked the opportunity for my dog to be able to have a friend and lots of playtime to distract from my absence without the overstimulation, and also unknown factor of multiple dogs in a larger day care situation. Her communication and thoroughness ahead of boarding alleviated a lot of anxiety I had around preparing to leave my dog for the longest we’ve been apart. The day of the trip, I was dealing with a last minute flight cancellation and she was so kind and flexible with me as I worked out a new drop off time. She also set expectations up front with when to expect the daily updates and then delivered exactly as she said she would, which again was a relief. Her updates provided me with insight into pintos daily routine there and the photos she shared were not just helpful for checking in but delightful. I shared them with my family daily to see what pinto had been up to and my mom commented on the high quality of the shots. In terms of care, due to discussions ahead of time, I felt confident in alignment with her around general training, engagement, exercise and feeding which was confirmed throughout the trip with our communication. When I came back, pinto has happy to see me but also wasn’t over stimulated more like she had a fun visit with a friend. I am definitely rebooking with Christine for future dog sitting needs and highly recommend her for others
Our dog had the BEST time with Saul this weekend. (I’m surprised she even wanted to come home!) He took her on so many adventures and took such great care of her - and sent loads of pics / updates so we could see all the fun they were having! There was no doubt in my mind that she was in excellent hands, and I know she can’t wait to go back to visit sometime soon!
Kyle & Stephanie really know and understand dogs - our dog can be complicated, reactive, and slow to trust new people, but they handled him with incredible patience and confidence. It was clear they took the time to understand his personality, and because of that he was relaxed and comfortable very quickly. They also spent a lot of time and energy giving our dog great breed-specific engagement, which he absolutely loved and we could see how happy he was during his stay. Communication was also top-notch.
I am very grateful to Kyaw for the excellent care provided to our Walter. Kyaw was incredibly responsive, kind, and thoughtful throughout the entire stay. I especially appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pet was well cared for and in good hands. Thank you again for your professionalism and compassion!
Thank you for taking the best care of Rocket and Ruby! We never have to worry when we know our dogs are with you. They have the best time, and we can enjoy our vacation knowing we don't have to feel guilty leaving them behind. Your frequent pictures of them sweetly snuggled up at your place or on beautiful walks always help my children when they are missing Rocket and Ruby too. Thank you for helping us again and again!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Millbrae on Rover is $65.71 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of July 2026, there are 6,004 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Millbrae. 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.
92% of Millbrae 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 Millbrae 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 Millbrae 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 Millbrae.
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 Millbrae 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.
