“Maria and Ben are so wonderful!! They’re so kind and took such amazing care of Murphy! It’s always hard to leave your pet and it was so comforting knowing he was having the best time at their house with their sweet pups!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Ryan was great with Duke! Our pup can be quite a bit to handle but Ryan didn’t seem phased at all! Super easy and laid back and was very responsive anytime I reached out. Will be trying to make Ryan our go to sitter for Duke.”
“We are so grateful to have found Jeanne to care for our dog, Luglio. From the very beginning, she was warm, responsive, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease while we were away, sending regular updates and the sweetest photos that showed just how happy and relaxed Luglio was in her care. Jeanne went above and beyond to make sure Luglio felt at home, giving him plenty of love, walks, and attention. It was obvious she treated him like one of her own. He came back to us happy, calm, and well cared for—exactly what every dog parent hopes for. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jeanne again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and loving dog sitter!”
“Our dog Clementine had an amazing time staying with Carmen and her dog Cathy for six nights. Carmen’s genuine love and attentiveness toward dogs really stood out—she cared for Clementine as if she were her own. I truly appreciated the daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Clementine was happy and well cared for. Carmen even went the extra mile by introducing her to fun puzzles and healthy treats. It was clear Clementine felt right at home, and I’m sure she’d be more than happy to stay with Carmen again.”
“Brittany always takes such good care of Butter! The old guy has a lovely time hanging w her and her sweet pup. And she’s v responsive and kind. Highly recommend.”
“Amazing! Alicia and her boys were the perfect spot to leave our Ollie. Great comms, responsive and totally thoughtful. Don't hesitate to board your pet with her. Thank you!!”
“Pia M. is the most caring, conscientious dog sitter you could possibly find. My soft-coated wheaten terrier, Gracie, is always so excited when I bring her to Pia's house, she can hardly believe her luck! During Gracie's last visit, when I was away without phone reception for over a week, Gracie got sick and started eating inedible stuff (a thing she does when she has a tummy ache). Pia treated my dog as if she was her own: without missing a beat, she called the vet, got instructions, prepared special food, and nursed my pup back to health. By the time I returned, Gracie was just fine again, and Pia gave me a full report. I am so grateful to Pia for her wonderful, loving attention to my pup's needs and for all the fun Gracie has with Pia and her own sweet dog on every visit!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Zsolt and Bernardett! They took exceptional care of my dogs, providing constant updates and photos that gave me complete peace of mind. When one of my dogs had an accident, they were incredibly proactive, handling everything with care and great communication. Their attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals were evident throughout the entire stay. I would trust them again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet sitters!”
“Jess and Max were so great with our dog, Molly. They immediately had her at ease, providing her excellent care and affection! I also want to say that they were great with providing me with lots of updates and pictures of how they were caring for Molly. I’m so relieved knowing that they are available and I would highly recommend booking with them if you are wanting dedicated, reliable, attentive caregivers for your pet! Thanks again, Jess and Max! Looking forward to next time!”
“Jennifer was awesome! She was available to watch our dog within a weeks notice and took such good care of him 😀 sent tons of photos and updates. We felt super comfortable and safe knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend using Jennifer if you ever need a sitter in the area. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️”
“Goose had a lovely stay with John and his wife! At first, Goose can be wary of men due to his past, but he warmed up to John and became besties overnight! Will definitely keep John in mind for future stay needs!”
“Lucero took wonderful care of my dog and gave her so much love and attention while I was away. They played together, went on multiple park outings, and Lucero even brushed her and spoiled her with treats. It was clear my pup felt happy, safe, and cared for the entire time. Lucero is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and trustworthy — your dog will absolutely be in the best hands with her!”
“Emily was amazing! Responsive and kept me updated throughout my pups stay and was also very accommodating to my change of plans :) didn’t haven’t any worries whatsoever leaving my little guy with her, especially with the many photos and videos! ❤️❤️”
“Megan was amazing! This was my first time leaving my puppy and I was so worried but he did great with Megan! She sent me pictures throughout the day and kept me updated with all the details with Knix! He came home happy and healthy. I will highly recommend Megan and she will be seeing Knix again!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of Winter!!! Shiyibin was a fantastic sitter and Winter had an amazing time with her and her two cats. She was extremely communicative, often sharing multiple pictures and updates of Winter throughout the week. I could not have asked for a better person to keep my dog and I will definitely reach out to her again when I go out of town and have to leave my fur baby!”
“Tomoko was a great dog sitter for my little Westie. I was nervous since this was my first time using Rover, but she sent pictures and updates everyday. Kingston came home very happy. I’d definitely recommend her and would use her again.”
“Lisa was on top of communication and you can tell that Emma saw her as a great guardian. Emma is a bit nervous in new environments, and Lisa made sure that she was taken care of.”
“Angela is an amazing at caring for our skittish doggie, and she is even flexible enough to accommodate drop ins for our kitties! Can't rave enough about how good she is. She takes time to get our fur babies acclimated to things, is very patient, provides daily updates and even a "Pawgress Report" for us when the booking is complete! Simply awesome! 😃”

Emily is the best!!! Took a last minute booking during the 4th. Our pup was immediately having the best weekend ever! Emily sent video and picture updates throughout the weekend, took the pups to the park, and made sure our anxious pup was eating her breakfast and dinner. I would recommend her to anyone!!! 5 ⭐️
Jenny was amazing! She had great communication throughout the stay and sent us daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. This was our cautious puppy’s very first boarding experience, and she was so patient and caring, helping him feel safe and comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better first boarding experience and would absolutely trust Jenny with him again!
Val is a dream sitter! My corgi Lychee and I are very loyal and had a longtime sitter we’d been going to for years until they moved too far away for us to continue seeing them :( I was so nervous about finding and trusting someone new to watch Lychee, and Val immediately put my mind at ease. She offered a pre-stay play date to help us all feel more comfortable then shared regular updates throughout the stay! Lychee came home healthy; happy and full of every—I can tell she had a great time! Highly highly recommend!
Miri and Philipp took such good care of Louie, and through the daily pictures they sent, it looked like Louie had the best time! They kept our anxious little guy happy and comfortable throughout his whole stay, and we will definitely be looking to rebook with them in the future!
Amber was thoughtful, prompt, and flexible which is exactly what we were looking for! She was able to accommodate a last minute booking that changed again right before the date. She was so kind and thoughtful throughout the entire booking. She made us feel more at ease with her quick responses and constant updates. We’ll definitely be booking her again!
Had a wonderful experience with Maria. Right from the meet and greet it is obvious how much she loves animals and is dedicated to giving them the best experience. The drop off and pick up was super smooth, and she sent the best pictures and updates of my pup every day. My pup had the best time!! Would definitely recommend Maria for anyone who is nervous about picking a dog sitter. Thanks again!!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Playa del Rey
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Playa del Rey on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 9,319 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Playa del Rey. 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.
94% of Playa del Rey 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 Playa del Rey 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 Playa del Rey 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 Playa del Rey.
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 Playa del Rey 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.
