“Charlie had a great time with Janice and her boys. Lots of play time and cuddles. And she checked in with me often, sending lots of photos and video while I was away. I’ll happily bring Charlie again!”
“She was very caring about my dog. She sent me messages about activities and nice photos twice a day, every day. When I picked up my dog after I returned from my trip, I could tell that my dog was very happy with JIng.”
“Ana and Mitchell were incredibly caring with Sophie. I needed a last-minute sitter for Sophie, who isn’t used to being home alone yet at 5 months, and they were amazing. What I love about them is that someone is always home and they only take one dog at a time. They were quick to schedule a meet-and-greet and were very welcoming. Sophie got to meet their dog, Ellie, and they got along instantly. Ana and Mitchell were flexible, accommodating, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure Sophie’s needs were met. We set up a short doggy date for a couple of hours, and it went perfectly- Sophie didn’t even notice we had left! Since leaving Sophie is new for us, we appreciated the frequent updates and their respect for her schedule. She came home happy and content, and it was clear she had a great time. Sophie will definitely be back soon. We even forgot a couple of things at their house and stopped by later, and Sophie was eager to go back inside to Ana and Mitchell’s home- showing just how comfortable she feels there.”
“My senior pup Benji loved staying with Irina! She sent lots of really cute photos during his stay and was able to accommodate his medication and frozen food requests. Thank you so much!”
“Dimitri and his family were amazing taking care of our dog! Our fur baby had a great time playing with Draco. Dimitri was always very communicative and kept us in the loop of our dog’s day to day. Thank you once again, we definitely recommend.”
“You won’t find a better dog sitter than Tatiana! She has such a quick and reliable communication and has accodomated us when we needed it. Her and her husband are truly the best.”
“Eric was an awesome sitter. Made our Kira feel very welcome staying in his home. He was very responsive and provided daily videos and pictures of our dog while we were away. This was our first time booking through a platform like Rover and Eric was the perfect sitter for our first time. Very pleased with the overall experience and would definitely recommend Eric as a sitter.”
“Jesslynn is exactly what we needed. My 10-month intact male husky-Aussiedoodle that needs discipline and someone that knows how to handle him. I’m beyond grateful to have found her in a pinch for dog sitting and we’ll be following up with her for training. She provided detailed updates and did everything she could to provide him the best care.”
“Selien is amazing! She cared for my senior dog with some much attention and warmth. I was never nervous at all that Calvin wasn’t getting the love he needs while I was on vacation which really helped me unwind with peace of mind. I loved her daily update texts on how he was doing and the pictures she would send it felt like I was nearby and in the loop at all times. I would 100% be more than happy to have her look after Calvin again!”
“I'm so thankful for the excellent care Diana provided to my dogs. She sends me daily updates, my dogs looked very happy around her, her husband and their dogs. I'm so happy that I choose Diana to care for my dogs. I heartly recommend Diana to anyone that needs to leave their dogs in the care of someone. In the future, I'll leave my dogs with Diana knowing that she'll provide the best care and they will be happy in her care.”
About: I’m a former professional basketball player who loves staying active and spending time with animals. I enjoy playing, walking, and even running with pets. I can’t have my own because my husband has allergies, so I’d be thrilled to care for yours and help you out!❤️ I own a small business with a flexible schedule, allowing me to walk pets during the day near my home. Your furry friends will be in great hands! I’m highly responsible and always follow your instructions carefully. You can count on me to be on time, every time, and to care for your pets like my own.
“Jasmine and Andrew are such nice people! Upon meeting they gave such calm and kind vibes. We left both of our dogs with them for 4 days and we received so many photos and updates everyday! I sent a long list of instructions and they followed it perfectly. When you have a white dog, it’s very easy to tell if they’ve been taken good care of. Nori came home looking so clean and fresh, no tear stain in sight which is why I knew he was well taken care of & groomed! We’re so happy to find such a good sitter and the pups can’t wait to be back next time we’re out of town!”
“Albane was communicative and flexible with my my drop off and pick up. I received many photos and videos daily and felt really good about leaving my 6 month Dachshund with her and her two older dogs. Geppetto really enjoyed himself with Albane’s pack and made new friends. He stayed for nearly a week and all went smoothly. I strongly recommend Albane!”
“Alysha went above and beyond to make our pups feel like part of her family during their week long stay. She kept us informed in how it went the whole way, and was sincere and loving towards our dogs. I would recommend her absolutely to watch your animals, and am grateful she took such great care of ours! Thanks again!”
“Second time for Big Beddy to stay with Junyao! She took great care during Beddy’s spay recovery and kept me up to date all during her stay! Will always go back for private boarding!”
“Miry is amazing! She always treats our fur baby like he’s a part of her family. Our doggy loves to spend time with her. Miry definitely keeps us in the loop about how the day is going so we are comfortable while away.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pasadena
I’ve tried a lot of dog sitters on rover in the past 5 years and Lijuan is by far the best dog sitter I’ve found. I get really nervous leaving my dog but she makes me feel completely at ease leaving him with her. She is very reliable and sent me multiple updates and photos throughout my time away. I can tell she really loves dogs and treats him like he’s part of the family and makes him feel like he’s at home. I live close by and my dog tries to pull me to her building on our walks because he loves being there so much! She even gave us some treats and a dog toy as a Halloween gift! I can’t say enough good things!
Hillary was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter! She was incredibly helpful and thoughtful, and we loved receiving her daily photo updates along with her funny and adorable commentary. It was so reassuring to see our dog happy and well cared for while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely love to work with Hillary again. Highly recommend!
Camila did an excellent job taking care of Willow during our 2-week trip. It was our first time being away for so long without her, but Willow felt so comfortable at their place that our worries went away after the first few days. We appreciated the daily photo and video updates and Camila did a great job following Willow’s diet, schedule and daily routine (and puppy-tude!). THANK YOU for taking such good care of her! We highly recommend Camila and Miguel for any pet needs.
We always love sending our fur babies to CAT. They are so well cared for and loved. We never have to worry about how they are doing because we get constant updates, and they always look like they are having so much more fun than we are. Sometimes I’m not too sure that they are happy to come back home. We are so grateful for them!
Liridona and her partner were very welcoming to have my 50lb dog Kima. They were more than happy to have her in their home and treated her very well. I can tell by the way my dog was looking for them when we left. They sent great photos during the time. I will definitely book with them again. Thank you

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Pasadena is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $79 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 November 2026, there are 9,903 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Pasadena. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Pasadena 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 Pasadena 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 Pasadena.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pasadena. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Pasadena 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
