“Leo was very comfortable at Mings. She provided regular updates, photos and videos proactively and was very responsive to any question or request. I'll definitely keep Leo with her again when the need arises.”
“Daisy did an amazing job caring for our dogs while we were out of town. From the moment we picked them up, we could tell they had a great time-they came home happy, sleepy (LOL), and clearly well-loved. They got plenty of play time with Daisy's kids and their dog, which made it feel like a true family environment. Knowing our dogs were treated like part of the family meant everything to us and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. Thank you so much Daisy and family for taking such great care of our pups! We highly recommend her and would absolutely book again!”
“Dylan was fantastic for our first Rover stay! Quick replies, a same-day meet & greet, and a steady stream of photos, videos, and honest updates. He even slept on the couch so Franklin wouldn't be lonely. Clear communication and super flexible. Highly recommend!”
“Shawna is THE best! Chocolate Mousse and Rocky Road were so happy and healthy during their week's stay. I'll certainly book with Shawna again and I know my little furry boys will be excited to return. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, SHAWNA!”
“Svetlana always takes amazing care of our Luna! We know that Luna loves staying with her and is treated like part of the family. She sends regular updates and has been extremely accommodating with our schedule.”
“What a great family and dog sitters!!!!! The kids know hope to care and lead dogs. Hoada and Fawzi are warm, calm and welcoming. The trust and confidence in dog care is solid. A great spot for dog care!”
“I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter than Fiona!! She kept me updated with regular tests about my pup, which gave me so much peace of mind, and she truly made him feel right at home! The moment I picked him up, I could tell he was so happy and comfortable in her care. It means everything to know your pup is in such great hands I highly recommend her!!”
“Zhao and her family took good care of Socrates. I chose them because their house is similar size like mine and my cat prefers bigger space. I was given frequent update of my Socrates with pictures and videos.”
“Mary was amazing with my cat! I had to change my drop-off time last minute and ended up picking my cat up a day early. I told her to keep the payment for the full stay, but she was sweet enough to refund me. Plus, her little son played with my cat the whole time, so my kitty got plenty of love. Super honest, flexible, and reliable—will definitely be using her again!”
“I’m so thankful we were able to have our cavapoo, Roxi, stay with Dakota and Jaclyn while we were away. They were super responsive and did a great job of keeping us informed and sending cute pictures daily. It was wonderful to be reassured that our pup was in great hands for the week. I would absolutely book with them again to watch Roxi and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an attentive and caring environment for their dog!”
“I can’t thank Sarah enough for helping me out with a last-minute booking. She is an outstanding dog sitter—so kind, responsible, and professional. My dog received lots of attention — and she gave me great updates which I really appreciated. Her communication and overall care for my sweet boy was outstanding. If you need someone you can truly trust to take care of your precious pet, I highly recommend Sarah!”
“Sameer was great! This was our first time with him so we didn't know what to expect. He took our dog in at short notice, took great care of her, kept us posted on how she was doing, and sent some great pics (clearly my dog was having to much fun). Will definitely use him again!”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats throughout my life. I’m a stay-at-home pet mom with two older, very friendly dogs, and I regularly care for friends’ and neighbors’ pets when they are away. I’m experienced with pets of all ages, especially seniors and pets needing extra care. I can give oral medications, injections, and prepare home-cooked or special meals, and carefully follow your pet’s individual routine. Most importantly, I provide attentive, loving, and reliable care and treat every pet like part of my family. I’m a stay-at-home pet mom, so I’m home most of the day and have plenty of time to care for pets. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine with my own dogs and cat. I walk my dogs twice a day and have a flexible schedule for feeding, playtime, medications, potty breaks, and extra attention. Since I’m home most of the time, your pet will have plenty of companionship, supervision, and loving care throughout the day. I have a spacious 2,400 sq. ft. home with a fully fenced yard. I’m home all day, so pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. There are also two parks within a 5-minute walk from my home, which are great for daily walks and outdoor time. For pets that need their own space, I have a pet playpen and crate available. I can also separate pets when needed for feeding, resting, medications, or comfort. I follow each pet parent’s routine and instructions carefully so their pet feels safe, relaxed, and at home.
About: I work from home, which means your pet gets something most sitters can't offer: a human who's actually there all day. I do house sitting in your home and drop-in visits across Walnut Creek and nearby areas. I grew up with dogs and cats, have helped friends and family with everything from puppies to senior dogs, and recently welcomed a cat into my own home. I'm comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving medication exactly as you instruct — including pets with special routines or medical needs. Before we start, I'll learn your pet's habits and preferences so the routine doesn't skip a beat. While you're away, you'll get regular photo updates so you can see they're relaxed and happy. I work from home with a fully flexible schedule, so pet care fits around your pet's routine — not the other way around. For house sitting, I'm there through the day and overnight; for drop-ins, we'll lock in visit times before booking so feeding and walks stay consistent. Your home and your pet's routine stay exactly as you left them. Before we start, we'll do a meet-and-greet to cover temperament, medications, feeding, quirks, and emergency contacts. I'm background-checked through Rover, and I'll send photo updates and messages so you're never wondering how they're doing.
“Anna watched Judah over a long weekend for us and was extremely communicative and easy to work with! We got daily updates about Judah and how she was settling in as well as lots of photos. We felt that Judah was safe and cared for, would recommend booking with her in the future!”
About: Your vacation should be a vacation—not a trip where you spend half your time wondering, “I wonder how my dog is doing?” 😄 My goal is simple: you enjoy your time away, and I make sure your dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll follow their normal routine, give them plenty of attention, and make sure they get the walks, playtime, and couch time they’re used to. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful. They’re family, after all. That’s why I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re doing great—and you can get back to enjoying that margarita on the beach. 🍹 You can relax knowing your dog is safe, getting lots of attention, and probably having a pretty good vacation of their own. 🐾 I work remotely, so I’m home throughout the day and can easily work pet care into my normal routine. I take regular breaks to give the dogs attention, playtime, potty breaks, and walks rather than leaving them alone for long stretches. We also have a large yard—about 9000 sq. ft.—so there’s plenty of room for dogs to stretch their legs, explore, and get some energy out. 🐶 The best part for you is that your dog gets a comfortable, home-like stay while you get to enjoy your time away without constantly worrying about what’s happening back home. I’ll keep their routine as normal as possible and send updates along the way, so you can relax knowing they’re getting plenty of attention. Great that you have come this far down reading my profile. At this point it's just "Trust me bro" since I'm out of cliches. Genuinely speaking, I love dogs and I can take care of them once we Meet and greet.
About: As a dedicated dog parent myself, my unique strengths include senior dog care, dog walking and providing a calm home environment along with custom routines. Pet care is already a core part of my daily rhythm. As a dog parent myself, I start and end most days with walks, so caring for a dog fits naturally into my schedule rather than competing with it. Since I'm currently a homemaker, I have flexible, consistent availability throughout the week — including mornings, midday, and afternoons — which means I can offer reliable, on-time walks rather than squeezing them in around a 9-to-2. I'm looking to build dog walking into a regular part of my week: it keeps me active, gets me outdoors, and lets me connect with neighbors and other pet parents in the community. Because I understand the responsibility of caring for a dog firsthand — from reading their energy level to knowing when they need a slower pace or extra water breaks — I bring the same attentiveness to dogs in my care that I'd want for my own. For dog walking, I focus on safety, routine, and attentiveness. When I arrive at a client's home, I take time to greet the dog calmly and let them warm up to me before heading out, especially on a first visit. During the walk, I keep dogs on a secure leash, follow the pace and route that suits their energy level and age, and stay alert to their body language, other animals, traffic, and weather conditions. I always bring water for longer walks, clean up after the dog every time, and make sure collars, harnesses, and gates are securely fastened before and after each visit. Once the walk is done, I make sure the dog has fresh water available, lock up the home securely, and send the owner a quick update — including photos when I can — so they know their pet is happy and cared for. Because I'm a dog owner myself, I treat every dog in my care the way I'd want someone to treat mine: with patience, close attention, and respect for their individual personality and needs.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - San Ramon
We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful sitter! We had an unexpected family emergency, and she was incredibly accommodating with a last-minute booking and flexible with everything we needed. She truly went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were well cared for. It was such a relief knowing they were comfortable, happy, and in good hands with her and her family during a stressful time. And we got lots of pictures and updates! Her kindness, flexibility, and willingness to go the extra mile meant so much to us. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter!
Jing was very capable and conscientious in taking care of Patches and Oreo. Our elderly dog Patches needed special attention due to his age and also had to be given antibiotic medication due to an unexpected injury that occurred right before our trip and Jing accommodated that without any fuss.
Sahar is the kindest, most caring pet sitter I have ever met. She cared for Abbie like her own baby, and sent us the sweetest updates, which were so reassuring and helped us to relax and enjoy our time away. In fact we were so happy to see a video of Abbie snuggling with Sahar after just an hour of leaving her. I can tell Abbie felt very loved because she didn’t show any signs of anxiety from the separation when we got her back home. We cannot thank her enough for loving Abbie so well and we will definitely be back next time we need a sitter! ❤️
We left our two pugs with Paul for a long weekend trip, four days. Paul is absolutely an "dog person" and has experience with dogs of many breeds, including pugs! He had great communication before and during the boarding engagement. Our pugs were returned happy and healthy and it was apparent that Paul took very good care of them. I would recommend Paul for anyone who has boarding needs.
Saumya and Gaurav were wonderful! I was a first time user and out of my area. They took such great care of Suzie! I had updates and photos and felt so good about the care she was in for the day! Thanks again Saumya! You really put me at ease all day! I will be in touch if I need help again while in your area!
Daisy did an amazing job caring for our dogs while we were out of town.

Thank you so much Daisy and family for taking such great care of our pups! We highly recommend her and would absolutely book again!
For our first experience with Rover, we couldn’t be more impressed by Marisa. From the moment she met our dog Bailey, we could tell our girl would be in great hands. It was immediately evident that Marisa loves dogs and that Bailey would be well taken care of while we were away. Marisa was proactive in sending us updates and in every photo, Bailey was active or cuddling, and looked so happy playing with Marisa’s dog Henri. We are so appreciative of Marisa and would absolutely recommend her to others feeling anxious about needing to leave their beloved pup!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in San Ramon is $66 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $48 and $94 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 7,175 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across San Ramon. 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.
93% of sitters in San Ramon 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 Ramon 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 Ramon.
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 San Ramon 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.
