“I had a last minute trip and booked with Whitney! Which was great because sometimes you worry about being able to find someone on such short notice.. especially since I have such a large dog. She was amazing and I highly recommend! She kept me updated everyday with texts and pics and made sure my dog took his vitamins!! I will use her again if I can!”
“Karli saved us at Zion when we couldn’t bring our poodle in. At the last minute she quickly responded to our request, and went above and beyond to help us. We can’t thank her enough!”

About: I am a stay at home mom to 5 kids. They love dogs and your dog will get plenty of attention. We have a 4 year old soft coated wheaten terrier. She is super friendly and loves to play with other dogs. She had puppies last summer the kids and I are comfortable and know how to take care of puppies and dogs. Unfortunately we can only care for non shedding or hypoallergenic dogs. We prefer dogs who sleep in a kennel at night. I am a stay at home mom so I’m available most times and can let your dog out frequently for potty breaks. I am flexible. We have a fenced yard with plenty of space for your pet to play. I can also come to your home and take care of your pet there.
“Argiri was super amazing with my puppy Gibby! She was really good at communicating me and updating me about everything! She is super easy to communicate with and is open to any type of dog!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and understanding I’ve developed for dogs through years of hands-on experience. I’ve been caring for dogs since 8th grade, starting with my first Shih Tzu and later raising a Cockapoo, then opening my heart to two wonderful rescue dogs—a Foxhound/Cattle Dog mix and a Border Collie/Cattle Dog mix. Caring for dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to make each dog feel safe, loved, and understood, whether they need gentle senior care, playful engagement, or consistent routines. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I genuinely look forward to. Each morning starts with a walk, followed by breakfast and some playtime like fetch to help burn energy and start the day happy. Later in the day, I take them out for another walk around the park for exercise and their second potty break, and we finish the evening with one last walk before bedtime. Nights always end with extra attention—belly rubs and goodnight kisses. I care for pets in my home by providing consistent routines, plenty of exercise, and attentive, gentle care. Each day includes regular walks, scheduled meals, and playtime to keep pets active and comfortable. I make sure they get multiple potty breaks throughout the day, along with quiet time in the evening so they can relax and settle in. I also pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and at home while they’re with me.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a kid. I’m a dog groomer who owns 3 dogs. I always take good care of friends/neighbors dogs! I’m a part-time dog groomer at home, and I would love to use my spare time as a pet sitter. I love working with animals I think about their safety and feeling first so I always examine their behavior and personalities so it helps me when I walk and play with them.
“We are so grateful to Chanelle and her wonderful family for taking such amazing care of our dog, Teddy. From the moment we left him with them, we felt completely at ease. They were incredibly kind, loving, and attentive, and treated Teddy like one of their own. We truly appreciated the regular updates and the many photos they shared, which made us feel connected and reassured while we were away. It was clear Teddy was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust them again. Highly recommend!”
“Gizzy seemed happy with their family. She updated us a couple times. This was our first time using Rover. Hard to leave our dog with a stranger, but Melissa answered all our questions and made it easier to leave her.”
About: I've cared for a number of dogs and cats of all temperaments. Shy or nervous rescue dogs are no problem! I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, so you can rest assured knowing you have one of the best looking after your pets. I have a wealth of knowledge, experience, and patients to ensure the best possible stay.I work from home so I have the ability to be with your pets 24/7, walks and/or runs are optional depending on your pet and your comfort level. I work remotely, which allows me to be available for extended stays with your pet. While I'm away, my partner cares for our own dogs and cat so I can fully focus on your pet's needs. When I stay in your home, I care for your pets as I would my own. It's their space and their routine, and my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at ease while you're away. I'll follow their routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, comfort, and care. I also treat your home with the utmost respect.
“Rachelle and her family were awesome. Our puppy had a great time at their home and they were so good about sharing updates as well as pictures and really made us feel good about leaving her in their care! We would definitely have them watch her again.”
“Highly recommend Julia! My dog stayed with her and her partner for a couple nights during the weekdays and I felt like my dog was in great hands. She was upfront about her work schedule and when she would be home, which was appreciated info ahead of time. She sent pics and I just knew my dog had a blast and felt safe with them. Will definitely use again”

Pet 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.

The average cost for Pet Boarding in Santa Clara on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
There are 107 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Santa Clara. About 95% of Santa Clara sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
