“Amanda is AMAZING. We received updates DAILY through pictures and videos while our pups were in her care. Our pups stayed active, fed, and rested well after their eventful days. We plan to continue using Amanda for as long as she’ll have us! 😊”


“Josh has kept my dogs multiple times, and he is simply the best dog sitter ever - in the history of the world! I pray he never moves or retires because I trust him with my dogs' lives, and he would be impossible to replace.”

“We couldn't be more grateful to Michaella for taking such amazing care of our dog while we were away. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease with her kind and professional approach. It was clear that our pup was not only safe, but also truly loved and cared for like one of her own. Michaella kept us updated with regular messages and the sweetest photos, which really helped us feel connected and reassured. Her communication was excellent, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. Our dog clearly adored her, and we came home to a happy, relaxed pup—which says it all. We highly recommend Michaella to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and responsible caregiver. She's simply the best! 🐾”

“Daniel and Hilary took great care of my babies! I met them before hand and was very comfortable with them. I would high recommend them. I know I will use again.”

“Shelby was absolutely amazing! She did a fantastic job taking care of our two pups and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, which made us feel connected and reassured the entire time. It was so nice seeing how much fun they were having and knowing they were in great hands. It was clear that Shelby truly cared for our dogs and treated them like her own. Our pups looked so happy, comfortable, and loved throughout their stay. We came home to two very happy dogs, and that means everything to us. We’re incredibly grateful for the wonderful care she provided and would absolutely book with Shelby again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, trustworthy, and attentive!”

“Ronny demonstrated exceptional care and expertise in handling our recently adopted canine companion, Max. Initially exhibiting hostility towards other dogs, Max’s behavior significantly improved within two days of Ronny’s intervention. Additionally, Ronny provided valuable video guidance on crate training, which proved instrumental in our success. Highly recommended, we anticipate utilizing Ronny’s services again in the future.”

“I cannot say enough about Stefanie, she was by far the best sitter we have had, she made sure to keep me in the loop and communicate with me, she sent me pictures and kept me updated definitely booking with her again.”

“Amy took great care of our dog Brody for 3 nights. He has never been away from us for more than a day. She updated us daily with pictures of dog walks, nap time and feeding time. Brody enjoyed his stay and got along great with Amy's dog T-Rex. We highly recommend Amy as a host. We will definitely be booking her again.”

“Best sitter I’ve had thus far!!! Very knowledgeable very patient very caring & reassuring will be booking her from now on 10/10 recommend for all my fur baby parents! Literally went above & beyond!”

About: What makes me different from other sitters is that I naturally include training in my time with dogs. Even small things—like impulse control, manners, or minor behavioral habits—can make a big difference, and I love turning training into play. I especially enjoy working with puppies! They’re so smart, curious, and always up for a challenge. With your permission, I can help your pup start off on the right paw. Of course, if your dog just wants playtime and cuddles, I’m more than happy to provide that too. My goal is always to meet your dog’s needs and make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while in my care. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which means I can give plenty of time and attention to your pets. I’m also available on weekends—so whether you’re heading out for a movie, a night out, or just need some time to relax, I’ll be there to make sure your furry companion is safe, happy, and well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I pay close attention to body language and always put each dog’s needs first. I do have a 3-year-old son who loves to run around, but he also knows to give dogs their space if they don’t want to play. I also share my home with a 3-year-old chocolate Lab. He’s a very sweet, easygoing boy who does great with puppies, cats, and older dogs. If your dog isn’t comfortable around others or prefers crate time, I’m happy to adjust. I can separate him and do rotational play so that your pup feels safe and cared for.
“Our first time using Rover.com services. We were initially nervous about leaving our dog Rico with a complete stranger. After a meet and greet with Genevieve, we were instantly at ease! She was warm and friendly, answered all of our questions with great detail, and even asked questions about Rico and any special considerations/needs that I had not considered listing when creating our pet profile. Genevieve was extremely good at communicating during our 7 days away. We received a couple of photos each day, with a detailed write-up of Rico's daily adventures. She administered Rico's many different medications daily, and was sure to let us know what was administered and how much. The HUGE smiles on our pup's face were reassuring while we were away, he looked like he was having fun at summer camp! Drop-off and pick-up were a breeze, we would happily trust Genevieve with our pup any time! We look forward to booking her again!”

“I would leave more than 5 stars if I could. Not only did Chelsea watch my dog last minute, but I couldn’t pick up my dog on time due to a random storm and she has been more than helpful. This reliability is second to none! Also my dog loves them. This is his first visit. He gets along well with their family and the dogs plus theres so much space in the backyard for him to run around. I get so many pictures and videos. He pretty much had a little doggy vacation. I would book for him to stay with them again even when I’m not out of town just because of how much fun my dog has had with them. Amazing.”

“Angela and Samuel were wonderful with our labradoodle! They took care of her as if she was their own, they kept us updated on her which made us feel great! Thank you guys for being so good to Gracie!”

“Autumn was great and my cat Lou seemed incredibly comfortable with her. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a reliable sitter that will communicate in detail how your pet is doing every day. Thanks, Autumn!”

“Nathanaelle is a great choice when looking for someone to care for your pet. She cared for our dog for almost a week while we went out for a family vacation. She communicated quickly and often, and she sent updates and photos of our guy. We would recommend her and would definitely book her again!”

“Thor loved being here he ran in the door before I got back in my truck. Damien was very nice and made it easy for me to drop off Thor and made him feel at home right away!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Pleasanton on Rover is $32.75 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 372 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Pleasanton. 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.
89% of Pleasanton 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 Pleasanton 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 Pleasanton 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 Pleasanton.
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 Pleasanton 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 TX 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.
