“Megan took wonderful care of my puppy Henry while he was boarded with her. She made sure he got plenty of exercise and lots of social time with other dogs, including puppies, which was perfect for him. She even took care of some grooming, which was a nice bonus. Henry came home happy and well cared for. I'll definitely be bringing him back to Megan soon. Highly recommend!”
“Sylvia took great care of my pup over the holidays. This is our second booking with her. My family were out of town and she’s the best sitter we had especially for an extended stay. She sent daily photos/videos/updates and our fur baby was so happy. Our puppies got along so well. Thank you so much Sylvia, and happy New Year!”
“Iryna was very kind and accommodating with our puppy’s first boarding experience! Her communication was excellent, with lots of pictures, helping us understand he was doing fine and following up when there were needs or questions. Would highly recommend!”
“Svetlana was great! Our dog was loved and cared for, and I would not hesitate to leave her again in such good hands. I appreciated the daily updates and pictures of walks, play, and lounging at home. Svetlana was super responsive to all of my questions and was such a nice person to interact with. The overall experience was fantastic.”
“Milo had another wonderful stay with Daniel and Emily! Daniel went above and beyond to accommodate our last-minute changes and was incredibly quick to respond throughout. We truly appreciate their care and flexibility!”
“Dapeng is great! He always makes sure our dog gets plenty of exercise and attention, and keeps her active and happy while we’re away. She always seems relaxed and well cared for when we come home. It’s such a relief knowing she’s in good hands. We’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
About: I have a deep passion for animal welfare and a proven track record of helping dogs thrive. Over the past 6 months, I have successfully fostered 3 rescue dogs—ranging from incredibly shy pups to those facing behavioral challenges such as resource guarding, hyper-vigilance, and under-socialization. Through patience, structured guidance, and positive reinforcement, I was able to help them overcome these hurdles, transforming them into affectionate, confident dogs who have all now been happily adopted into their forever homes. Whether your pet is an energetic pup, a timid soul needing extra love, or a rescue dog with specific boundaries, I understand how to read their body language and provide the calm, consistent environment they need to feel safe. I have a part-time, work-from-home job with a super flexible schedule. This allows me to provide plenty of companionship, flexible potty breaks, and customized attention throughout the day based on your pet's routine. As a dedicated pet caregiver with hands-on experience in fostering rescue dogs and raising cats, safety and trust are my top priorities. I am highly observant of animal body language, which allows me to prevent stressful situations before they happen. For dogs with behavioral needs (such as resource guarding or high alertness), I establish clear boundaries, follow their exact routines, and provide a calm, predictable environment to make them feel secure. For pet's emotional comfort and physical safety will always come first.
“Tatiana was great! I can tell she took great care of my cat, and she was able to take him so last minute which was super helpful. I will definitely be using her again and would highly recommend!”
“Karen and Willie are amazing pet sitters! From the moment our dog Teddy walked into their home and throughout the entire sitting period, his experience with them was beyond exceptional! Also, Teddy and their dog Cookie both immediately became best friends and she was a great support for our first time pup! Highly recommended 😊”
“Ying took such amazing care of our dog, Bailey! She sent frequent updates, photos, and videos! He seemed to really enjoy her pup and met a few more friends at her place too! She followed all of our instructions, and truly got to know him and listen to his cues. Thank you!!!!”
“Summer stayed with Dawn and Mel for about 1.5 months, and we’re so grateful we found them. They took such great care of her and made her feel right at home. We especially appreciated all the updates, photos, and videos—it really gave us peace of mind and we loved seeing how she was doing. She looked so happy and relaxed the entire time. You can tell they genuinely care. We’d absolutely trust them with Summer again and highly recommend them. 🐶❤️”
“Maria was a star with my shy kitties on their first time away from home! Even though they were a bit timid at first, she knew exactly how to make them feel comfortable and loved. She was super patient, letting them warm up to her at their own pace. Maria kept them happy with their usual routines, lots of gentle play, and a super clean space. Her updates were a joy - cute pics that showed my fur babies slowly coming out of their shells. I totally recommend her for your pet sitting needs. Looking forward to having her over again – she's a real cat whisperer! 🌟🐱👍”
“Hongtao and his family took excellent care of our dog. They were so loving and observant of her needs and very communicative. They left us many pics, videos and a complete description of how she was doing. Our pooch is easy to love but they really went above and beyond!!! I sincerely hope he is available if we should ever need a sitter again. Highly recommend!!!”
About: We are Liel and Nadav, a mom-and-dad team, parents to two young children, and a very sweet 10-year-old mini poodle named Freddie. Our whole family genuinely loves dogs, and we’re excited to welcome additional furry friends into our home! We both have a lifetime of experience with dogs, having grown up with dogs and cared for them throughout our lives. Liel has also raised and trained a Seeing Eye dog puppy and regularly sat for other Seeing Eye dogs. While we’re new to Rover, we’re not new to dog boarding - we’ve been welcoming dogs into our home through our local community for the past few years, and are now expanding to Rover. We have plenty of experience caring for small to medium-sized, family-friendly dogs in our home. Your dog will be treated like part of our family, with lots of cuddles, frequent walks, playtime, and plenty of love! We understand how hard it is to leave your pet behind. We’re happy to keep you updated during your dog’s stay so you won't have to worry or wonder how they're doing. Liel loves photography, so you can expect beautiful photo updates of your pup enjoying their vacation ;) We host only one to two small to medium-sized dogs at a time, so your dog will receive plenty of attention and care. We look forward to meeting you and your dog and welcoming them into our home! Nadav is a stay-at-home dad, and Liel works partially from home, so at least one of us is home for most of the day. Our daily routine includes several walks, play, and lots of time relaxing at home, so your dog will have consistent attention and care throughout the day. We live in a cozy apartment with our two young children (ages 2.5 and 6) and a small senior poodle dog. To make sure everyone stays safe and happy, we can only accept dogs who are friendly with toddlers and small dogs. We can’t host dogs with aggression or resource-guarding issues (food/toys). We supervise all interactions between our kids and guest dogs and make sure visiting pups have plenty of calm, safe space. Our guest dogs' routine is important to us and we want to make their stay feel as much like home as possible. Whether your dog prefers a crate or a soft bed, sleeps in your room, needs multiple short walks, or has specific feeding or medication instructions, we will follow your lead. We look forward to meeting you and your dog, and welcoming them into our home and family!
About: Preferred name: Fifi Grew up with small and large dogs like Spitz and Golden Retriever. Currently live with cats🐱 Always pet sitting for friends over holidays in the past 12 years including domestic cats, ragdoll, poodles and doodles, Bernese mountain, Maltese, Cotons, Cavapoo, Bichon… Flexible in time and locations. For boarding: I can pickup and drop-off your pets if you are occupied with other things or simply don’t wanna drive :) For house-sitting: Happy to walk your pets around neighborhoods, nearby parks, and trails or beaches (during weekends). My work schedule is pretty flexible, which makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I also enjoy driving and don’t mind traveling a bit for pet sitting or drop-in visits. I’m usually available on weekends as well, so I can be flexible with different schedules and care needs. I always follow the owner’s house rules and care instructions, and try my best to keep each pet’s normal routine while their family is away. Every pet is different, so I’m happy to adjust to their needs—whether that means extra walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply giving them some space. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while in my care. 🐾
“I highly recommend Rachel and CW, who provided an outstanding experience for our senior dog. Their updates and photos were extremely timely, engaging, and well-written, evidencing the care they provided was compassionate, consistent, and professional. Our dog was embraced as an elder, and shown warmth and consideration. Rachel and CW followed our feeding directions and notes precisely and were prompt and courteous with intake and outake procedures. Our dog had a wonderful stay, full of kindness and inclusion.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Maria Luisa and Fabio! They took amazing care of our dog, Lea, while we were away. They are incredibly kind, caring, and trustworthy, and it was clear that Lea was in great hands. Knowing she was being so well cared for gave us complete peace of mind throughout our trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust them with Lea again. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving and reliable home for their dog!”

Hongtao and his family are the best! Data needs lots of attention and barks at other dogs on walks. Hongtao was taking great care of data and talk him out for walks with extra care. He sends me photos of data, and update of him every evening, which helped me a lot to not worry about Data. My flight was delayed and I had to pick up my data late at night, and he’s just playing with data and waiting for me, didn’t complain at all. I really appreciate that! Bonus point, he’s a great photographer, took many cute photos of Data!
Shudan was the best dog sitter!! We received so many updates and pictures throughout our pups stay with her. Our dog came home happy, calm, clean, and like she had just finished a vacation herself! Shudan was excellent with communication and our pup can’t wait to go stay with her again!
Recently I used Lawrence's pet sitting services for my dog Livvy and I must say she had an amazing time. I had a few last minute hiccups, and changes, and he was very considerate, and gracious to adapt according to it. Going above and beyond was what stood out for me. Thank you Lawrence, Livvy felt safe, loved, cared and happy and that's all that matters. WIll certainly use him again soon.
Jessica was amazing with Jellie! We received lots of updates and pictures that put us at ease while we were gone knowing that Jellie was with her. It was very clear that Jellie received lots of attention and love. Jellie even wanted her to leave with us when I picked her up! I would definitely recommend her and book again with Jessica for our next trip!
Mocha came home happy, healthy, and well cared for! I really appreciated Elena’s knowledge and experience working with animals, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She was attentive to Mocha’s needs and proactively asked for instructions on her supplements and treats to make sure she maintained her routine. I felt confident Mocha was in capable hands and would happily recommend Elena!
John was amazing with Charlie, my 14 year old senior pup. She had a bunch of medication and he was very attentive on giving me updates about how she was. Communication was superb and I recieved so many photos a day and reassurances that she was doing well. Charlie came back happy and healthy! John is awesome!
Jasmine was great with our rescue maltipoo, Raz. She made herself available for a meet and greet prior to our dates so we could discuss Raz's needs and get acquainted. While Raz stayed with Jasmine, she provided multiple daily updates and photos. She made sure she knew Raz's routine and care needs and asked great questions. She was willing to take Raz on long walks and play with him. Raz returned to us excited to be back home but also balanced and happy, like he'd had a great vacation :)
Jordan watched my Belgian Malinois for a full work day and my dog was so thrilled. Jordan was very thoughtful and caring to my dog and took lots of photos showing me how much fun she was having. Jordan is really responsive and I trust her to watch my dog in the future! So glad I found her.
Thank you Emma for your loving care for our Kobe. We were so happy to see Emma on Rover as she was Kobe’s foster before we adopted him! He can be slow to warm up but knew he’d be so happy once again in her care. We truly appreciate Emma’s knowledge and devotion with even nervous dogs.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Mountain View is $72 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $43 and $101 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 4,577 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Mountain View. 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 Mountain View 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 Mountain View 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 Mountain View.
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 Mountain View 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.
