“Pax has a wonderful time at Sylvia’s this was his first time staying over more than one night. Sylvia and family are patient and lovely. While he was happy to see us he definitely had a great time. 😊”
“Ivette was vey welcoming and kind to my little Charly. She had no issues tending to Charly meal routine aswell as his exercise needs. Charly was very happy when picking him up, which is always a very good sign that he had a good stay. Thank you and would 10/10 recommend to everyone”
“First time user of Rover and Traci. She was kind to communicate throughout the stay, along with pictures to let me know Lucas was adjusting well to his new environment. A good first time experience.”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have years of hands-on experience caring for my own two dogs, along with dogs belonging to family and friends. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, or keeping up with their daily routine, I know how important consistency and patience are. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so my goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for. I’ll treat your furry family member like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages along the way. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day. My schedule allows for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship. I’m available for dog walking, daycare, and overnight care. I understand how important it is for pets to stick to their routine, and I’ll do my best to make them feel comfortable, loved, and at home while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I provide a clean, loving, and supervised environment in my home where pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. During walks, I prioritize safety by using secure leashes, staying alert to our surroundings, and walking at a pace that’s comfortable for your dog. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions, and I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident your furry family member is in great hands.
“Artem was incredible! Our other Rover sitter fell through at the last minute, and he willingly took in our pup that same day, so we could catch our flight on time! He was very responsive, and it was clear that he kept a safe and structured environment for the dogs. I would highly recommend him and will definitely call on him the next time we need our dog boarded. Thank you again, Artem!”
“If your dogs are your children like mine are, you definitely want someone like Alexandra to watch over them. I was able to leave Leo in her care for almost 3 weeks and I never once worried that he wasn’t getting the best love and care possible. In other words, I was able to enjoy my vacation! Alexandra is great!”
About: I have been fostering doggies from all over california since 2023, including local rescues. I enjoy seeing the doggos blossom under my care, it warms my soul. I am happy to provide pet sitting services to others. Great references upon request. I live by the Friendship Park in San Pedro I am currently working from home, so your doggy will have access to the backyard all day the long. I often hike up the canyon and down the beach with my doggy, and would love to bring yours if allowed I have a fenced yard, crate if needed, and a loving environment. I also have a camera which I give access to owners so they can check on their babies 24/7
About: I've taken care of dogs for over 10 years and would love to host small to medium-sized friendly, mellow dogs. I am an artist and writer who lives in San Pedro, CA, by the waterfront. I have a fenced yard and work out of my home art studio. I can board your doggie(s) at my house for the day or for a few hours. I do not own pets right now because I have been traveling a bit. I am available M-F, and holiday/weekends if given advance notice. Only two dogs at most at any one time at my home. Contact me if you want a trusted companion for your furry friend :) I wake up very early in the morning. I usually take a walk by midmorning, and work on art or writing for the rest of the day, so I have plenty of time to play with your furry friends. I have a fenced yard to allow your doggies to get air, sun, or run around a bit supervised. I am also comfortable with dogs sitting on my furniture or bed. I have hardwood floors.
“Trevor did an excellent job caring for my dog. He was very communicative and thoughtful to make sure all parties were comfortable. I highly recommend him and will be having him watch my dog in the future.”
“Amazing experience! She took such great care of my dog and kept me updated with photos throughout the stay. I could tell my pup was happy and comfortable. Definitely would book again!”
“Christeen is wonderful! She’s taken excellent care of our dog a couple times and would send us regular updates on how she was doing. She gave her the utmost care and attention during her stay and we had full confidence that she was in great hands.”
About: Grew up with a Bernese Mountain dog, and have had dogs ever since. Been on countless hikes with pups both on the west coast and east coast. Recently cared for 9 dogs in a spiritual organization here in California and another 4 on the east coast while I spent time in upstate New York. Dogs are the greatest thing on earth! 🐶🐶🐶 I share the same philosophy as Ricky Gervais...

Oh, and dogs look great! You’re a rockstar! 💫 I kind of wish we had gone through the app so I could write you an amazing review but we’ll figure out a way to make that happen! thank you again and have a wonderful trip! — Wow thank you very much connor!

We greatly appreciate you 😊 I'm currently working from home so have plenty of time to care for, feed, walk and play with your pup! Available for house-sitting 7 nights a week. Will take the best care of your furry loved one in your home and give him or her the attention and love they deserve! Happy to follow any care recommendations you have!
“Narumi was amazing. She kept the boys on routine and was able to give Bandit his medicine (no small feat). They stayed engaged, exercised, and she gave plenty of updates. Thank you again Narumi!”
“Excellent puppy care. Perla is thoughtful and very thorough. She was able to administer medications and eye drops to our 5 month Norwich terrier, Chewy. Chewy loves staying at Perla's because he gets along with Harley and Chloe. Perla is also very accomodating and updates frequently. Love having Perla watch Chewy anytime!”
“Mollie was absolutely wonderful with our golden retriever! He had such a great time and it was clear that she truly welcomed him into her family and made him feel right at home. We really appreciated the picture updates while we were away, and they gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, we could tell that he had very little anxiety being away from us, which says a lot about how comfortable and well cared for he was. We’re so grateful to Mollie and will definitely be using her again. Highly recommend!”
“Stephanie was wondering with Ellie! Great communication and provided lots of updates & pictures of her while I was away! Will definitely book with her again 😊”
“Karina was awesome! She kept me informed about how my doggie was doing and sent me pictures of him every day which I loved! It was my first time leaving my babie with someone he didn’t know so I was a little nervous but I felt safe since I met her in person and my dog looked very relaxed and happy when we came back♥️ I recommend her with no doubts!”
“Our dog was in great hands with Jeimy. She was really attentive to our instructions and took the time to chat with us before our boarding stay to ensure that we were comfortable and that she understood the quirks of caring for our senior dog. She sent us lots of photos everyday so we were able to see that our pup was being well cared for. We would definitely rebook with Jeimy again!”

Armando has been an absolute lifesaver for our family! His availability, flexibility, and responsiveness make coordinating care for our dog so easy. Most importantly, our dog always has a fantastic time with him (and Padmé, his English bulldog). We love receiving photo updates throughout his stay, which gives us complete peace of mind knowing he’s happy and well cared for. It’s such a relief to have someone we can trust and count on. We highly recommend Armando and are so grateful to have found him.
Amanda and Nathan (and their daughter) were the perfect hosts! Our two girls were spoiled and treated like family from the moment they arrived. For our dogs, not having other dogs there calms them and keeps them from acting territorially. They sent lots of pictures and gave our girls an awesome time. We would definitely use them again (and will be next month!).
Courtnie is a great sitter who really understands dogs, and my 1-yr old crazy border collie mix loved his stay there. He had so much fun playing with her dog and running around in her backyard, that he actually got tired and fell asleep. And the next day he was so happy there he got the zoomies! Courtnie sent lots of photos and updates, was careful about special instructions, and was very flexible when I requested additional pet sitting time on the day of pick-up. I hope to book Courtnie again in the future!
I left my two senior dogs in the great care of Sam for several days. A little nervous as I don't leave them often and one has mobility issues. He immediately put my mind at ease and didn't hesitate at all my dog mom instructions. He texted pics everyday with updates which I truly appreciated. It is obvious they were very well cared for. I highly recommend Sam for anyone looking for a pet sitter!!
I can’t recommend Katherine enough! From the moment I dropped off my Loki, I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such capable hands. Dobermans can be high-energy and require attentive care, and it was clear right away that they truly understood his needs. Throughout the stay, I received consistent updates, photos, and little notes that reassured me my dog was not only safe, but genuinely happy and comfortable. They went above and beyond with attention and affection—treating my dog like their own. When I picked my dog up, I could immediately tell how well they had been cared for. Loki was happy and clearly bonded with their Katherine . It’s not easy to find someone you trust with your pet, but this experience exceeded all my expectations. I will absolutely be booking with Katherine again. If you’re looking for someone reliable, communicative, and truly passionate about animals, this is the person you want!
We feel so grateful to have found Jenn to care for our beloved Miko while we were away for two weeks. From the start, Jenn and her family welcomed him with so much love and truly treated him like one of their own. We received daily updates and got to see all the fun moments Miko was having, which really showed how much genuine care and attention he was getting. We honestly cannot express enough how at ease we felt knowing Miko was in such great hands. Jenn went above and beyond, and we would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pet like family.
As a first-time Rover user, I was naturally a bit anxious about leaving our puppy with someone new.Sharyl was absolutely wonderful! She was patient, attentive, and sent plenty of updates that put our minds at ease. Romeo came home happy and well-cared for. I’ll definitely be booking with Sharyl again!
Mark & Jan are absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of our dog Theo. We were gone for about 11 days and we could tell he was having the most amazing time - morning walks at the beach, afternoon ball throwing and lots of cuddles. Throughout the trip, we weren’t worried at all because we knew that they were caring for him like they would their own dog.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in San Pedro is $48 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $83 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 of October 2026, there are 9,305 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across San Pedro. 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.
94% of sitters in San Pedro 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 San Pedro 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 San Pedro.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 San Pedro 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 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.
