“Lucinda took wonderful care of our dog Kona while we were away! She sent daily photo updates, kept us in the loop throughout the stay, and was always quick to respond to messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our pup was well cared for and happy. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Lucinda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and thoughtful sitter!”
“I couldn’t have asked for more capable and loving sitters for my little baby! He was happy and well cared for and clean for a long extended stay. Will absolutely use again and have already booked for another stay”
“We needed someone to board our pup for one night and our need was somewhat of a short notice. Ryan not only resounded quickly, he was also very responsive and puntual throughout the whole process. Safe to say our pup met a new friend and we’ve gained a trusted boarder that we’d like to revisit again.”
“Lissa was great. She treated our Zippy during his stay of 8 days like her own. The communication was great. I could tell that he was given lots of love from the pictures and texts. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve spent 8+ years caring for dogs and am a proud dog mom to Poe! Along with caring for my own pup, I’ve looked after friends’ and family members’ dogs of all sizes, including caring for multiple dogs at a time. I know that every dog has their own personality, routine and quirks, and I’m happy to accommodate what makes them feel most comfortable. From sticking to specific feeding schedules and mealtime requests (yes, even the silly songs!) to making time for walks, playtime, cuddles and plenty of affection, I want every dog in my care to feel safe, happy and loved. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether your pup needs a walk, a drop-in visit or a place to stay while you're away, I’ll do my best to keep their routine consistent and give them the same love and attention I’d want someone to give Poe. I can’t wait to meet your pup! 🐾 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, feeding schedules and plenty of love and attention. I’m happy to work with each pet parent to accommodate their dog’s usual routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m interested in offering dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home pet sitting and overnight boarding. I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet seriously and want every dog to feel like part of the family while they’re with me. Whether it’s sticking to a specific mealtime routine, getting out for a walk or enjoying some extra cuddles, I want pet parents to feel confident that their pups are in caring hands! Safety and trust are always my top priorities when caring for someone’s pet. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, needs and any specific instructions from their owner so I can provide consistent, attentive care. In my home, I want dogs to feel comfortable, relaxed and part of the family. I’m mindful of introductions, supervise interactions with Poe and make sure each dog has a safe, comfortable environment. I follow feeding instructions carefully, keep potentially unsafe items out of reach and make sure dogs are secure when heading out for walks or going outside. When caring for pets in their own homes, I respect their space and stick to their usual routines as closely as possible, from mealtimes and walks to playtime and cuddles. I also believe communication is important, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos to give pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. Ultimately, I treat every dog with the same patience, attention and love I’d want someone to give Poe. My goal is for both pets and their parents to feel safe, comfortable and confident in my care.
“I can't say enough great things about Ellie! She cared for a recent rescue when I had to go out of town for a few days. She made my girl feel right at home and sent regular pics and videos which made me feel confident about her care from start to finish. When she found a couple of fleas on my put during her stay, she was so calm and helpful working with me from afar to take care of it. When my flight was delayed coming home, she even agreed to care for my pup until I could get back to town. Will definitely rebook with Ellie again!”
“Sierra was an AWESOME sitter, Ekko and Neeko loved her! Patient and attentive, she had my dogs feeling right at home. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a sitter who has experience with seniors or reactive dogs. She is legit a dog whisperer! Thanks again Sierra!”
“We loved that Roxy kept us updated with lots of photos of our pup throughout the day! As it was my first time leaving my dog with someone else, Roxy made sure he was comfortable and that we fully trust her. She is so sweet and understanding. Thank you”
“I had such a great experience having Toby stay with her! She was incredibly communicative throughout his stay and sent me so many photos, which made me feel completely at ease knowing he was happy and well cared for. She has a cat of her own, and Toby and her cat got along so well and even played together, which was such a great fit for him. It was clear that Toby was comfortable, loved, and having a great time. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be using her again! Highly recommend❤️”
“Miri and Philipp were great with our little dog Maple and gave her lots of attention and walks on the beach which she loved! They sent lovely updates and photos and we knew she was in great hands. Will definitely be reaching out to them again in the future!”
About: I've always embraced the fact that I've always had such an innate sense to relate to animals and being a pet caregiver is the best way to feed our souls I'm a freelance consultant so my schedule is flexible & can pivot to whatever is the priority at the time. My goal is to care for your pet as well as I would care for mine I have been a pet owner for the past 25 years & have an intuitive sense of what my dogs or cats need & want. I would, of course, use those senses & experience to care for your fur babies.
“Heather and David were so so so wonderful with our babies. The babies settled in immediately and were just so happy and so well taken care of. They were cuddled and played with and loved. Honestly, felt like they were home. We got lots of photos and updates - beautiful photos by the way! We thank you so so so much and would definitely love for our babies to stay with you again and we highly recommend Heather! Natasha and Ana”
“Zane loved staying with Kristen!!! She sent photo updates and we felt comfortable leaving Zane with her for 2 weeks. This was his longest time away from us and we could tell when we picked him up that he got a lot of love and attention!”
“Sweet couple! Felt very comfortable leaving our fur baby with them. They sent pictures and video during her stay which gave us comfort in being away from her. Our baby looked comfortable and playful in the pictures and video. They reached out when they had a minor concern with her to let us know and ask for suggestions on treatment. We would definitely leave her with them again!”
“Jamie did a great job caring for Bailey on a last-minute trip and making sure Bailey was as calm and happy as possible. Love the amount of love and care Bailey received over the weekend!”
About: Living in Santa Monica now for a few months, having moved from San Francisco where I had regular repeat clients and referrals. I've always grown up with dogs and nothing brings me greater joy! Growing up we had a range of dogs from Cavalier King Charles, to Labradors to sheepdogs! I have my own Cavalier (Lexie) since 2020. I don’t just walk your dog, I care deeply for every dog like they’re part of my own pack. What sets me apart? I provide: Daily photo/video updates so you always know how your pup is doing Thoughtful care and communication, especially during big life moments (travel, family emergencies, etc.) A calm, trustworthy presence—great for sensitive dogs or first-time owners. I also specialize in walking smaller dogs and senior dogs. Flexibility when possible, because life doesn’t always run on schedule. I’ve looked after everything from energetic puppies to sweet seniors and know that great pet care is about reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. Whether it’s a weekend trip or a longer stay, I aim to make your time away as stress-free as possible—for both you and your dog. **Peace of mind is everything** I'm currently my own boss and work from home with a flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to walk, play and snuggle with your dog! My own Cavalier is also super friendly. I always keep them on leash when outside on walks and am extra careful near traffic. I ensure to stop regularly and let them enjoy the smells and scenes of the neighborhood. Any walk is their walk to enjoy and get exercise.
“Limo and her family took amazing care of Kodiak. We are so happy that we left him in such capable hands. We would absolutely do it again if they wanted Kodiak back. :)”
“Thank you so much Mai for taking such great care of my sweet boy Luca. Also appreciate the updates and knowing how safe and cozy he feels with you, it truly means so much. Luca is looking forward to staying with you again very soon!”

Mariia was absolutely wonderful with my dog, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She was incredibly responsive from start to finish, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She also sent a ton of fantastic photos and videos throughout the day so I could see firsthand that my dog was happy, active, and having a great time. It was clear that she treated my dog like one of her own, providing a safe, comfortable, and highly attentive environment. I will definitely be booking with Mariia again in the future, as she is the perfect choice for anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring boarder.
Thank you Jonathan for taking such nice care of Chico! Chico was obviously in great hands with Jonathan and Chico was relaxed an happy when I picked him up. It was good that Chico also had the opportunity to enjoy the company of other dogs in the home and snuggle up at night with. Thank you!!!
Greg is a fantastic boarder! He took wonderful care of Avril during her stay and kept me well-updated throughout the time. When Avril skipped breakfast a couple of times, Greg reached out right away to check in and offered to make her some scrambled eggs to help her eat. It was clear my dog felt completely comfortable around him—when I came to pick her up, she was still happily playing with her toys and bringing them into his room! She came home healthy, energetic, and in great spirits. Greg is super attentive and caring, and I’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future.
Karen was a fantastic caretaker for our dog Murphy! We will not hesitate to book with her again for our next trip! Communication was excellent and Karen was very professional and thorough throughout the process. We enjoyed the regular updates/pictures throughout the stay. Her own dog and cat are very sweet and gentle as well. Thank you so much, Karen!
Liliana took great care of our little Marlon for a week! It's very clear she cares deeply for animals, and understood all of Marlon's little quirks and preferences (bed hogging for cuddles included). She sent great updates of all the fun they had, and it was great knowing he had such excellent care while we were away!
We absolutely love Daniel. Our dog, Benny warmed right up to him from the first time we met so when it was time to drop him off for his weekend stay, he ran right up to the stairs! Daniel sent us tons of photos throughout the weekend of long walks on the beach, playtime, and cozying up on the couch . His communication was excellent and it was obvious Benny had a great time!! Benny will definitely be back!! Thank you 😊

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Pacific Palisades is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $48 and $117 per night.

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.
94% of sitters in Pacific Palisades 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 Pacific Palisades 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 Pacific Palisades.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Pacific Palisades 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.
