“Mariana was such a great dog sitter for Stinky. She was super friendly, communicated me on his status while I was anway and made me feel at ease leaving Stinky with her. I would definitely leave Stinky with her again and recommend her service.”

“Our babies were with Jen and Steph (and sweet Lexi!) for 11 days while we were out of town. From the pictures and videos they sent I could tell they had a wonderful time, were well taken care of, and had all the love and comforts of home. We will definitely be repeat customers!”

“Sheena took such good care of Mango. She went above and beyond most Rover hosts we have asked to take care of Mango in the past. She sent us so many videos and photos of Mango to us. Our Mango loved her kids and really enjoyed her time with them. In addition, it was a rainy day and Sheena washed and dried Mango’s sweater and also made sure Mango was dry from the rain. Would highly recommend and would book again.”

“Brittany has been amazing with my pup who has some separation anxiety. He gets excited when he realizes where we are headed, he practically busts the door down to get in!”

“Jody is so sweet and took such good care of Koda. He got lots of love from her and her family. When we picked him up he seemed like he didn’t even want to go home, he was enjoying it so much. She even washed his doggie bed.♥️ Jody’s location is perfect for us since we need to pass her house on the way to the airport. We will definitely choose Jody again to take care of our Koda.”

“Ayni and Alfonsus made a positive impression from the meet and greet. They’ve wanted to check if Chico would get along well with another dog they had committed with. This showed me how much they care for the pet wellbeing. Chico was in great care and I received frequent updates by video and photo along with messages. They were very transparent all the time during our communications and this gave me the confidence to already plan another booking with them. Thank you Ayni and Alfonsus!”


“Mario is an amazing pet caregiver. Pixie always comes back home happy. Whenever we plan for vacations or family visits we are assured that Pixie is in good hands. Pixie is an elderly dog and Mario is always kind to her.”

“We were so thrilled to fund a great match with Neda for our Flynn. We boarded with Neda for an extended weekend, and she kept us updated with messages and pics throughout his stay. Thank you for welcoming him in to your home!”

“Once again Ashley provided great care of our dog. She kept us updated throughout his visit, and it was apparent he had settled in comfortably. It’s so nice to have peace of mind when you’re away from your pet.”

“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”

“I can’t express how thankful I am. This was a new experience for me as a new pet owner, definetly the best choice I’ve could’ve made. Paola and her family were absolutely great to Dobby. Always kept me in touch while I was away with pictures and made me feel so in touch with my Dobby as well. Thank you guys :)”

“Tiantian went over and above making Daisy feel better being away from home. We received photos and videos of how our dog was doing and we felt assured Daisy was in good hands. We would definitely use Tiantian again.”

“Stef and Matt took such good care of my pup! They sent lots of photos and made her feel at home. It’s clear they love their dogs and I’m grateful to have found them! Will definitely book with them again :)”

“John & Cathrine Are the best ‼️ I left my puppy 5 1/2 months over night and she loved it . John worked with my Sassy and taught her to Sit 💯🏆 iv been truly blessed to have found the Best sitters for my fur baby”

“Rajarshi is absolutely amazing! He watched our dog like as if he was his own child! He sent us regular updates with pictures and videos of what our dog was doing during the day! Gave him 3-4 walks during the day, played with him and took such great care of him! We will always leave our dog with Rajarshi! Rajarshi’s background and experience in fostering dogs makes him one of the most experienced & well rounded pet sitter who you can trust blindfoldedly! I would say that anyone and everyone can trust him with their pets! I wish I could give him 10 stars ⭐️ but 5 is the maximum we can give so giving him 5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


“Erin and Ken were great hosts meeting our dog first for compatibility between their dog and our elderly blind dog. They have an enclosed yard for playing and sent us pictures. We didn't know it but our dog passed a week after returning home from heart failure.Recommended.”

“Siobhan did such an amazing job taking good care of our two puppies! She was great at giving us updates and pictures and our dogs were very happy with her in her home. I highly recommend her!”

“Erika was fantastic! She was willing to take on a mischievous puppy when no one else wanted her. She took her on outings and had faith in her. I believe Marley came home better behaved. I will definitely use Erika again. Plus she was super responsive whenever we contacted her.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Santa Paula
I contacted Rover on a Thursday night and Mariana replied the same day and our dog was able to meet Mariana the next day. She is a professional with customer service and caring for the needs of our dog. We were so lucky she had room to accept our dog for 11 days. Our dog was spoiled while he was with Mariana and they treated him like their pet. I give Mariana A+++. Thank you so much for everything you did to take care of our dog.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Santa Paula on Rover is $53.28 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 1,236 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Santa Paula. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover 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.
96% of Santa Paula sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Santa Paula 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 Paula 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 Paula.
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 Paula 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 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.
