“Angela and her family took such great care of our pup. We received daily pictures and updates to know she was doing well. We could truly enjoy our trip knowing Coco was happy and loved with Angela. 100% would recommend and will book again.”

“Best 1st experience ever!! I was freaking out about leaving Bruiser for 6 days but Cindy and her family made the transition very easy. Cindy sent pictures every day of Bruiser having fun with his new friends, sleeping and getting cuddles. Will return for day visits because Bruiser misses Shelby ?. I have already recommended her to several dog mom's. Thank you Cindy, Vance and Shelby ?”


“Shaun always shares cute pictures and intentional updates. I appreciate that my pup always comes home happy, and feels safe while in his care. I know this by her happy demeanor when she gets home. Thanks Shaun!”

“Savana and Carter were awesome! They took such good care of Sully! They sent us so many pictures, cuddled him, and took him on walks! Sully also had so much fun playing with their dog! We would 100% recommend them and will definitely use them again!”

“Linda is the best! She kept in contact our entire trip and she sent a bunch of photos so I always knew what Kylo was up to. He came home a very happy pup!”

“I was a little nervous about leaving my dog since she went blind but Krisanne and Gaston took excellent and loving care of her! I had updates, photos and videos every day. My dog was walked everyday and they followed all instructions. Highly recommend. They are trustworthy and so nice!”
“Harley truly enjoyed his Rover stay! Chenelle kept me updated with pictures, and every single one warmed my heart. It was such a joy to see Harley having a blast and being so well taken care of. I’m incredibly thankful for Chenelle and her family for treating him like one of their own. 💕”


“We had great communication from start to during to end. We have never left our pups before and although they were reluctant at first Chandra and her husband gave them such great care that we were not worried at all. We would recommend and also trust them with our babies again!”


“So thankful for this amazing couple! They were available last minute and took care of our dogs. We value their time in taking our pups to the lake and on a hike. Very responsive when messages were sent. They sent a lot of videos and photos as well. Thank you!!”

“Conrad was amazing! We had something come up last minute and Conrad was flexible enough to take our two doggies in for a day and a half. He was very easy to work with, great at communication and responding back quickly with updates. We ran a little late for drop off and pick up and again, Conrad was flexible and accommodated us with what was going on which I am very thankful for. Doggies are happy and tired, so I’d say they had a very nice time! Would definitely recommend! If we are ever in need of a sitter in the area we will definitely book again! Thank you! 🙏🏽”
“Scot was fantastic! He showed such genuine care and affection for our dog, making us feel completely at ease while we were away. His kindness and flexibility with our schedule were much appreciated, and it's clear they truly love what they do!”

“We highly recommend Jaren without hesitation! He provided outstanding care for our dog and is both conscientious and fun, incorporating medicine administration, playtime and walks into the daily routine!”


“Jennifer took great care of Indi & Dexter, and she had worked with them previously at their daycare center so she was already up to speed with their quirks which helped put our minds at ease in boarding them for several days.”

“Stacy was AMAZING!!! I can’t think of a better person to watch my dog. She even sent pictures updating me throughout his whole stay. My dog was so happy when I picked him up and so grateful to have found her.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Santa Clara
This was the second time we had Krisanne and Gaston pet sit Brody. The first time was just an overnight stay to see how he would do and he did fine. This time he stayed a week and when we first dropped him off he seemed excited. Later when he realized that we weren’t there I think he started to get anxious and nervous. He had some accidents but Krisanne and Gaston handled it nicely. They keep me updated that Brody was doing better and sent pictures of him playing and taking daily walks with their dog Kylo. I felt comfortable leaving Brody with Krisanne and Gaston and would highly recommend them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Santa Clara on Rover is $33.3 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 112 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Santa Clara. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter 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.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local 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 Santa Clara 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 Santa Clara.
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 Santa Clara 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 UT 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.
