“I can’t say enough about the complete, loving care Randy provided my “Little Girl” (13 yo Yorkie). He kept her from Fri morning through Sunday evening, provided great pics and videos. This was only her second time on staying with a stranger - and she never missed a beat. She came back home calm and happy. Randy is her new home away from home.”
“I felt so safe leaving my baby with Mrs. D! She is a true animal whisperer. I know that my pup got the same love that she gives her own animals and I found that so comforting. My Santiago got plenty of exercise and I got pictures and videos sent to me while I was working. I will definitely leave my baby with her again in the future. Thank you again 🥰”
“Lynn did an absolutely amazing job with our extremely scared and anxious dog. She took the time to make her feel welcomed (which is not easy) and by the end of the stay our dog was all hugs and kisses with Lynn (she wouldn’t leave her house!). We’ve actually never seen our dog warm up to anyone outside of immediate family so this is a testament to Lynn’s patience and warmth. We are so incredibly grateful for her care and will book again!”
“My dogs were spoiled during my time away! I received daily updates and pictures/videos to prove they had a great time! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
“Madison was fantastic! Our dogs haven’t stayed with a sitter before and she was incredibly accommodating. She sent pictures and updates during their stay, which was so appreciated. You can tell she takes care of animals as if they were her own!”
“Serena and AJ were amazing with Cookie!! It was very relieving & comforting to know she was in such great hands while I was out of the country for a bit. Serena was always super quick to respond, flexible, and I loved getting all the photo and video updates! 10/10 would recommend & I would definitely book again with her!”
“Miss Gail was wonderful and took great care of our Dio while we were away. She kept us updated with pictures and videos. Dio had a great time and we definitely will be back. Thank you again for everything!”
“Lisa and Gizzy took great care of our Charlie! He can be a nervous nelly, but they put him at ease quickly as if he was part of the family from day one. Pics and updates were sent regularly. We are so grateful to have found you as Charlie’s home away from home!”
“Brittany was great with my little dog and showed him lots of love during his stay. She was flexible and really helped me out when travel delays prevented me from picking my dog up as planned. I will definitely ask Brittany for help the next time I need a loving dog owner to spend time with my little guy.”
“Katherine was amazing with my girl. She took great care of her and provided feedback about how she was doing and some pictures throughout, which gave me some peace of mind so I was able to enjoy my trip. Thank you! My little old lady baby came home happy and tired. I could tell she really enjoyed her time with them and I would 100% recommend.”
“Elena and Paco are wonderful! Chico loves them soo much! This is his second time staying with Elena and he loved his stay. I'm very happy I found someone I can trust to care of my dog while I'm out of town! Elena is great and caring! I wouldn't leave my dog with anyone else.”
“Leaving Bentley with Kate and Conor felt like having a friend take care of him! Bentley was immediately comfortable with them. Kate was attentive to all of Bentley’s care needs. Bentley wasn’t even that excited to see me when I picked him up, which always tells me when he feels right at home with his sitter. Highly recommend and will definitely be rebooking!”
“Amazing first Rover experience with Natasha! She met us and our Sadie Bug first on a virtual meet and greet, which we really appreciated. She accommodated us with drop off and pick up times that worked for my husband, as I was already in another state. She sent pictures and text messages to keep us informed and let us see that Sadie Bug was doing well. When my was loading Sadie’s belongings into the car at pickup, Sadie was happy in Natasha’s arms. That told me everything! 100% recommend this wonderful person! ❤️”
“Siraaj treated my pup like she was her own. It’s clear she really cares about providing quality care and attention to the dogs that she sits. She consistently sent video and picture updates throughout my dog’s stay. Definitely will be requesting her next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Christina was absolutely wonderful! She went above and beyond taking care of Noodles and treated him like he was her own. She took him on multiple outings and adventures, sent us tons of photos and updates, and made it so easy to relax knowing he was in such loving hands. It was very clear from the photos—and from how happy he was—that Noodles was having an absolute blast. Beyond being an amazing dog sitter, Christina is just a genuinely delightful, kind human. We would trust her with Noodles again in a heartbeat. Couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“Great experience! Our dog was so well taken care of, and it was obvious she got lots of love and attention. I really appreciated the updates and pictures while I was away, and even got a sweet report card! I came back to a happy pup, and we’ll definitely be using her again!!”
“Anna took great care of our dog Rex! She sent daily updates, and I know Rex enjoyed his time with her adorable Corbin :) Anna was flexible with drop off and pickup times and offered to pickup extra food for Rex. I will definitely reach out again!”
About: I have many years of pet care experience! I grew up with two dogs and a cat and I care for all creatures with love and compassion. I have been formally pet sitting and house sitting for 10 years. I am currently a graduate student studying art and I have a lot of flexibility during the mornings, evenings, and weekends for pet care. I have a car and love zipping around town to provide walks or meals! I love taking walks and exploring neighborhoods with the furry friends. My home is very pet friendly with a fenced-in back yard and plenty of inside space to occupy. I can easily accommodate crate trained animals as well. If you needed me to stay with your animals at your home I would treat your home with great respect and I take that responsibility very seriously.

Randy is very kind and loving with our little Dexter. He sent lots of pictures and kept us up to date with everything. He was very understanding about our flight getting canceled and made us feel at ease about having to pick him up the following day. Highly recommend!!
We were so nervous leaving Charlie for the first time, but Stacy was absolutely amazing! From the moment we dropped Charlie off, Stacy was incredibly warm, professional, and attentive. We received daily updates and photos/videos, which instantly put our minds at ease. It was clear our pup was being loved and cared for just like family. We highly recommend and will definitely book with Stacy again!
Brie was absolutely amazing! 🥰 From the moment I dropped him off, she made me feel completely comfortable. She kept me updated throughout his entire stay with pictures and sweet text updates, and I really appreciated knowing how he was doing. She was also incredibly flexible and understanding with my early schedule and even worked with me when my pickup time changed. That meant a lot and made everything so much easier. He seemed to have such a great time with her and was clearly comfortable and happy during his stay. You can tell Brie genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and I’m so grateful for the love and attention she gave him. ❤️❤️❤️ I would definitely recommend Brie to anyone looking for a sitter they can trust. I’d absolutely book with her again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Our experience with Lori was great! This was our first time ever leaving Gunner. We were very anxious but Lori and husband love for dogs was obvious from the first meeting. Although it was new being away from us, he was taken such great care of by them. We will be using them again for sure! We appreciate the loving care provided for Gunner. Thanks Lori!
Cindi has an obvious love for animals and took great care of my dog in her home. We received daily photos and updates, and Cindi made our time away less stressful knowing our dog was in good hands. Her dog, Zara, became my dogs new best friend and my dog was so sad to say goodbye when we picked her up. Great dog sitter.
Siraaj treated my pup like she was her own. It’s clear she really cares about providing quality care and attention to the dogs that she sits. She consistently sent video and picture updates throughout my dog’s stay. Definitely will be requesting her next time I need a pet sitter.
Parnay was absolutely amazing with my pug, Zeke. From the moment we connected, it was clear how caring, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful he is with animals. Zeke was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Parnay kept me updated, treated Zeke like his own, and went above and beyond to make sure all of Zeke’s needs were met. It’s obvious he has a natural way with dogs and truly understands their routines and personalities. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust Parnay again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and exceptional pet caregiver. Thank you, Parnay, for taking such great care of Zeke! 🐾

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in River Ridge is $33 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $44 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 October 2026, there are 497 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across River Ridge. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
97% of sitters in River Ridge 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 River Ridge 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 River Ridge.
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 River Ridge 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 LA 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.
