“Zak was awesome! We got lots of pictures of Bella and Charlie playing and getting lots of snuggles and love ?. When we picked them up they were clean and happy! I highly recommend using them to take great care of your 4-legged friends! We’re already planning to book with them again in January ‼️”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I dropped off my dog, Sugar, with Cody, and let me explain what “Sugar” is dealing with. Sugar is a tiny white cockapoo whose greatest natural predator is…existing. She’ll hear a leaf land three houses away and immediately file an insurance claim. She has been startled by her own reflection, a pillow, and once spent five minutes suspicious of a decorative pumpkin. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So naturally, I was thinking, “There’s no way this dog survives being around another dog and a cat.” Wrong. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cody has this supernatural calm that apparently extends to terrified fluff balls. His dog was basically like, “Hey, you wanna hang out?” Sugar answered in her native language, which is silent panic. His dog didn’t care. She just kept being cool until Sugar realized nobody was trying to assassinate her. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Then there’s the cat. Most cats look at a nervous little dog like they’re planning a documentary called How Easy Would It Be? Cody’s cat was just…chill. At one point I think the cat judged me more than it judged Sugar. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ By the end of the stay, Sugar was wandering around like she paid the mortgage. She actually looked relaxed. Relaxed! This is a dog who’s emotionally overwhelmed by a ceiling fan. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I don’t know what Cody does. Maybe he whispers affirmations. Maybe he has Disney-princess powers. Maybe his dog is running some kind of emotional support operation and the cat is HR. Whatever it is, it works. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I picked Sugar up happy, safe, exhausted from actually having fun instead of rehearsing imaginary disasters. Cody sent updates, took amazing care of her, and somehow convinced the canine equivalent of an anxious Victorian ghost that life isn’t one long emergency. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If your dog is confident, Cody will probably make them happier. If your dog is like Sugar and thinks gravity is a personal attack, Cody is basically a miracle worker. Ten out of ten. Would absolutely trust him again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sugar probably still doesn’t trust the vacuum, but that’s between her and her therapist. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ~Christine and David”
“Trina communicated promptly and gave updates of my dog’s stay with her. Perla loved playing with the resident dogs and was nice and worn out when she came home. I would use her again.”
“I appreciate the time Edith spent getting to know our little Zelda. I felt comfortable leaving her for the first time with a stranger and really appreciated getting pictures if her during her stay so we could see she was doing ok. We would definitely want to use Edith again!”
“Ezzie had a great time at Derek & Leslie’s home. Derek is super communicative, responsive, and easy to work with. Thank you for taking good care of Ezzie! We’ll be back!”
“Martha was great with Bagel during his 5 night stay. He loved playing with her dog Benji's toys and had so kuch fun. I could tell from the pictures that she shared. I would definitely book Martha again. Thanks for taking such good care of him.”
“This was my first time leaving my puppy (and I'm also a first time dog Mom)...but Rachel made my first experience so pleasant. She took great care of my puppy and kept me updated with pictures and videos.”
“This is the second time Alexis and her family have watched our Golden. They are amazing! We can tell from the photos how happy our Leo is staying with them. It’s very comforting!”
“Our dog felt right at home for his lengthy stay with Josue, his wife and their friendly dog Sammy. We enjoyed the pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend him. We were very happy with the comfort and care he provided.”
“Tammy is the absolute best! I can’t say enough good things about Tammy and the amazing care she gave our dog, Sugar, while she was boarding at her home. Sugar is a little cockapoo and a total scaredy-cat, so I was a bit nervous about how she’d do. But from the moment we dropped her off, I knew she was in good hands. Sugar originally came over to visit her “boyfriend” Aries (one of Tammy’s adorable pups), but she ended up bonding with Medusa instead — a dog twice her size! They played non-stop, ran around the house, and totally hit it off. Girl power! When we picked Sugar up, she still had the zoomies and was clearly missing her new best friend. It’s so comforting to know she was not only well cared for, but also had the time of her life. Thank you, Tammy, for treating Sugar like one of your own. We’ll definitely be back! 💛🐾”
“Coryn was an exceptional care taker for the little man. Sending me videos and pictures throughout his stay, i didn’t have any worries that he wasn’t in the best of hands. Thank you again for treating my little dude like family.”
“Diane was great! Oscar and Olive had a lovely time whilst we were away and made lots of new friends! Diane does a meet and greet before to really make sure your pups will be a good fit and that goes a long way to making you feel comfortable leaving them! Would 100% recommend and book again!”
“Wyne is amazing! She a professional with dogs. She watched Rocky for a week while we were on vacation and kept us updated and sent pictures everyday. Rocky looked happy being there. Wyne is great with dogs and we will definitely come back for either doggy daycare or for boarding the next time we need a sitter. Thank you for being amazing with Rocky!”
“We will hire Leslee again for our next boarding need. She is very loving toward our dog, Pikachu. While we were out for a short vacation, she seemed to be very fond of our dog and treated him as one of her dogs. She sent pictures of our dog every single day; she kept us in the loop on how our dog was doing at her home. We were so happy to know our dog has his vacation at Leslee home.”
“Another day booked with Angela. My dog is a 14 year old senior, and he sleeps a lot. He doesn't "roosta like he usta". Angela's home was comfortable and serene enough that Bishop didn't even realize I came to pick him up. Love that!! Thanks Again.”
“Jared is a blessing! He made himself available for a meet & greet and instantly made us feel comfortable with leaving Zuko there. Jared was always quick to respond and sent daily pictures of our boy. It’s safe to say Zuko absolutely loved his stay! Will definitely be booking with Jared again! ☺️”
“Tracy was amazing with Holly, and Holly came back home so happy after her visit there. Tracy gave Holly her meds as needed, lots of attention and pets. I would definitely leave Holly with her again.”
“We're Naomi's newest repeat customers to-be. Wow, what a great experience, having the peace of mind that Chloe (our senior Bichon mix) was in a caring home, rather than locked in a kennel cage. She also adjusted the schedule at the last minute to accommodate a scheduling issue with our vacation, adding a night to the booking. We highly recommend Naomi, but, please save a spot for us!”
“Cynthia was great with Benji! She communicated well, sent pictures and updates throughout the day, and was very professional and kind. I felt confident that Benji was in good hands. I definitely recommend her and would book with her again!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Rancho Cordova is $55

Coryn always does such a wonderful job taking care of Nova! Nova always leaves tired but happy & I can tell she genuinely enjoys being there. This was Nova’s second time staying with Coryn for a week & I know we will choose her to watch Nova again every time we have a vacation! Thank you, Coryn!!
Colleen is great! She and her partner take wonderful care of my senior dog, Bailey, and have been understanding and accommodating of Bailey’s increasing needs due to her age. Colleen always follows all of my care instructions, sends pictures and updates, and asks clarifying questions to make sure that Bailey is comfortable and well taken care of. She is also extremely reliable regarding booking and pick up/drop off arrangements, which is so helpful. I really appreciate the peace of mind in knowing that my pup is well taken care of when I need to travel.
Jataveya accepted our last minute request to watch our dog Phoebe over the weekend. I appreciated her quick response and continued communication as we coordinated dropping her off and picking her back up. She stayed in communication with us while we were out of town, letting us know how Phoebe was doing. I would recommend her to others.
Cliff was wonderful with our dog. It was our first time using Rover and he made our worries subside by meeting him first and going over what their day would look like. Finn enjoyed many days at the park, river and playing with other dogs. Cliff sent messages and pictures through his 19 day stay. Do not hesitate to hire Cliff!
Melissa and her kids were really great with my dog, Kyro! Kyro tends to get very anxious when with new people and environments, but Melissa and the kids made him feel very comfortable. We got lots of updates about him while on vacation and were very happy with the attention and love he got while we were away. Will definitely be bringing Kyro back next time!
Jamie did a great job taking care of our Goldendoodle while we were away on vacation! She was very responsive with messages and sent a few pictures and updates while we were away. We were able to schedule a meet & greet before our trip which was great. Jamie has a beautiful home with an awesome backyard for the dogs to have fun in. We definitely trust Jamie to take care of Cooper again in the future!
Ann was wonderful! Our pets were welcomed into her home and taken such great care of! She and her husband are very kind and warm and knowledgeable about dogs. The dogs seem happy to be home but very unstressed after a 10 day stay. We already have our next visit booked!
Alison is a wonderful pet sitter. My two dogs were boarded in their home over Memorial Day weekend and they were very happy. From consistent photo updates to making sure they got plenty of exercise, potty breaks, and love, my dogs were treated like royalty. The backyard and house are super safe and perfect for dogs. Communication was excellent throughout. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a safe and cozy home for their pets.
My 2 year old Great Dane puppy had a blast being a part of Katy’s pack for 6 days. Her communication was great and she sent lots of updates. They worked on basic commands and he got lots of cuddles. This was the longest I’ve left my pup in someone else’s care and it went far better than expected.
Magnus had a lovely stay with Carla. She has a friendly dog of her own, and the two got along well, which made the environment comfortable for him. Magnus really seemed to enjoy spending time in her backyard, which gave him a nice space to relax. Carla was patient and understanding with Magnus as he’s a senior, and it was clear she gave him the time he needed to settle in at his own pace. I appreciate the care and attention she showed him during his stay. Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Rancho Cordova on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,698 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Rancho Cordova. 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.
95% of Rancho Cordova 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 Rancho Cordova 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 Rancho Cordova 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 Rancho Cordova.
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 Rancho Cordova 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.
