“Catherine and her husband are so sweet and communicative! We received daily updates on Gale’s behavior and lots of cute pics! They spoiled our dog with two walks a day (I normally only give her one!) and have a fenced in yard for play. I could tell that they really cherished having our dog’s company instead of just dogsitting for the additional income. Their heart is in it for sure!”
“Absolutely the best! They are very caring, enthusiastic, and responsible. Charlie, our poodle, liked playing with their dogs in the fenced back yard. Also they kept in touch and sent reports and photos. We will rebook with them in the future.”
“Kim was super communicative and caring. I could tell she truly loved furry friends: lots of play time, pictures and videos. She also accommodated our needs to adjust pickup time with zero issues. Highly recommended!”
“Sandra and Jose were great with Louie who seemed to have adjusted very quickly to them. They constantly sent photos of Louie and updated me daily. They also have a great space in their backyard for the dogs to play in which I thought was great. I highly recommend Sandra and Jose!”
“Katie and Jason are super star dog sitters! My senior dog, Abby, was very comfortable with them. I loved getting all the updates. Katie was really responsive on text and kept to Abby’s schedule and routines. I am so thankful we found them!”
“It was Miley’s first time with a new sitter for some time now so we were very nervous. Micaela and her family were very sweet and welcoming. Miley received wonderful care and I received lots of pics and updates. Thank you so much! I’m sure Miley will be back to visit again soon. ?”
“Renee and Chris took excellent care of my dog — a newly adopted rescue. He has stayed with them two times. They were very patient and loving as he gained confidence in a new setting, and provided frequent updates and pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Zhengting and her husband are amazing caretakers. We had excellent communication during my pup’s entire stay with constant updates. Lucy got lots of walks and playtime. Would definitely recommend and book with Zhengting again!”
“I want to thank you once again for taking such good care of my dog. It was her very first boarding experience, and I was quite anxious at first. However, the frequent updates through messages and photos gave me great peace of mind!! We’ve already made two additional bookings. I’ll be back with a more detailed review next time :) Thank you!”
“Yuko and Kazu took great care of my two shibas for two weeks. They set up an easy meet and greet and communication is very clear with them from start to finish. I got video updates and was happy to see my shibas playing well with other dogs from their daycare. When I picked them up, both dogs were very clean and looked so trim, energetic and happy. It’s clear to me that they took very good loving care of my shibas and that they are very experienced with dogs. I am so glad I found them and have them set for another couple bookings in the next month, and I would highly recommend them to you without reservation.”
“We had a great experience working with Nupur and Arani, who took excellent care of our dog Romeo. They communicated patiently and proactively, and asked thoughtful questions to ensure a smooth transition and a caring experience for Romeo. We received continuous updates throughout the trip, and Romeo had a great time at their home, too.”
“Tara was amazing! My dog leans quite anxious so I always get nervous dropping him off with new sitters, but she was so patient with both him and me and so kind. She listened to all my particular requests for him, and I felt very safe and assured leaving him in her hands. My dog loved his stay, 10/10 sitter and will definitely be taking him to her again!”
“Jenisa took excellent care of our much loved Molly (4 year old Corgi)! Our family recently relocated from Washington State to the Bay Area, and it’s such a relief knowing we now have Jenisa as our trusted Molly caregiver!”
“Kaitlyn was a fantastic sitter! She sent us multiple photo/video updates every day during our trip, so we always knew what Ripley was up to. We felt so reassured that Ripley was having fun time hanging out with Sammie. We would definitely book with Kaitlyn again!”
“I am very thankful for Yang who took excellent care of Howie! She is very detail oriented and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable. I could quickly tell from the photos that he was having a great time. She was patient as he adjusted to his new space and in no time, it was like Howie was on a vacation of this own ! I would definitely recommend Yang to others. We plan to use Yang again in the future.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Millbrae is $75
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Millbrae
Alice was wonderful with our 14year old dog, Winnie. We usually have a sense of how Winnie was treated by the way she behaves when she comes home from her boarding experiences. Winnie came back calm and did not act differently from before she went to Alice's home. On previous stays with some other hosts, Winnie had appeared terrified when we picked her up. Alice sent us daily updates, along with pictures and videos throughout Winnie's stay. It was wonderful. We will definitely have Winnie be taken care of by Alice in the future.
Catherine and her husband were amazing with Bentley! I’m so grateful for the love and care they gave him over the weekend. Catherine kept me updated with photos, which I always appreciate! It means so much knowing Bentley is happy and being so well taken care of while I’m away. I’m so thankful to have found such wonderful people to care for Bentley and will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you both so much! 🫶🏼
Lester took great care of my dog, Remy. Lester walked Remy multiple times a day and sent me regular updates, videos, and pics to let me know how Remy was settling in. Remy has a bunch of little quirks, and Lester seemed to be able to adapt to all of them. I’d definitely use Lester as a sitter again!
We had a great experience with Yijiu! She was super responsive, kind, and very attentive to Leo. It was clear that she took great care of him, and Leo had such a fun time playing with her family. She was also very detail-oriented and kept us updated throughout his stay. We would definitely book with her again!
Winnie and boba were so welcoming to Mercy and took great care of her even though she can be very shy and aloof at first. They made her feel comfortable and she clearly had a great time. Thank you Frankie also for loving on her and playing with her! Winnie had great communication and sent me photos and videos daily and took Mercy on a lot of hikes and walks. I can’t recommend them enough ☺️!
Christine took great care of our german shepherd for a week while we were away on vacation. She is one of the best boarders we’ve worked with on Rover and we highly recommend her! Christine sent us photos and a short description of what they did every day - whether it was a walk, playing ball in the backyard, or others. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing that our dog was active and well cared for. Our german shepherd is pretty energetic and it seemed that she had a blast with Christine's family and her dog, Obi. Thank you again, Christine!
Yu-Liang and Yi-Ting are wonderful dog sitters! They treated my dog, Pickles, like their own. They sent me several pictures and videos every day. Pickles looked so happy and loved playing with their dogs. They set up a meet and greet at a nearby park to make sure their dogs got along with mine before the boarding. They really prioritize safety and are well organized with a spreadsheet for all the dog’s needs. Thank you both for taking such good care of Pickles!
This is Kyra's third time staying with Camille and we couldn't be happier. We received lots of updates throughout her stay, and it was clear that she felt right at home under Camille's care. We felt completely at ease during our trip knowing that not only was Kyra content, but she was also getting a lot of love and attention. They went on lots of adventures together, and we got great pictures to reassure us that she was settling in well and enjoying herself. We feel so lucky to have found Camille and will definitely book again!
Eric and Sally are amazing! They went above and beyond to send us pictures, give updates, and keep us posted on how my dogs were doing. More than anything, I appreciate how kind and understanding they were with our dogs, which isn’t always easy. We could tell how kind and sweet were with our dogs, which was reassuring as this was the first time we left them with anyone besides family. Sally and Eric made us feel so assured and confident that our dogs were being well taken care of and loved. We appreciate them so much and hope to book with them again in the future!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Millbrae
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Millbrae is $82 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $56 and $111 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 5,964 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 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 Millbrae 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 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.
