“Madhumita was amazing! She was able to accommodate a very last minute request. Her home is very nice and well appointed for dogs. She communicated well, was friendly and her dog got along really well with ours. I received updates throughout his stay. She took great care of my dog and I wasn’t worried at all. Highly recommend!!”
“This was our first time leaving our 5 month old golden retriever, Willow, and we could not have asked for a better experience with Azedah. She was so kind, understanding, professional, and kept our fur baby so safe and happy. We will definitely be booking again soon! 😁”
“Qi was great! My dog Ellie had an awesome stay with her! She boarded there for about two weeks, and Qi kept us updated the whole time with pictures and messages, which we really appreciated. She was also super responsive anytime we had questions. When I dropped Ellie off, Qi gave me a quick rundown of what her days would look like, which helped a lot. I also liked that she took a thoughtful approach to introducing Ellie to the other dogs and let me see how they interacted before I left. Overall, really smooth experience and I’d definitely book with Qi again!”
“Wow, what a fantastic experience! Sharry is an incredible host and is everything you'd want in a dog host. She was a great communicator, sent tons of pics and videos, was very attentive to my dogs, brushed them, and they were so happy and tired when we picked them up!”
“Thank you Li-ting!! I trust with her with my corgi and she takes care of him like her own. She’s very detailed with updates and her communications is good. From the pictures and videos, my corgi loves her. Recommend her always! Thank you again, Li-ting!”
About: Hi, I’m Inhwa. I believe every dog deserves our full attention, which is why I only host one household at a time. My husband and I live in a serene and peaceful part of Campbell, where we enjoy taking dogs for walks around the neighborhood or to nearby John D. Morgan Park. We live in a house with a beautiful Japanese garden and a fully fenced yard. We have no children or pets. My husband mostly works from home, and I run my own business from my home office, so I have a highly flexible schedule. I’m happy to follow your dog’s routine, including feeding, walks, medication, and bedtime schedules. I’ll also keep you updated regularly with photos so you can see how your pup is doing. We aspire to create a quiet, “zen”-style home that feels like an oasis. We’d love for your family member to enjoy the same peaceful, comfortable, and caring retreat while they’re with us. As a new founder in the tea industry, I have the flexibility to shape my days around what matters most. I may spend a few hours working on my business, go swimming, or tend to our garden, but when a dog is staying with us, they become my VIP guest. My schedule will anchor around theirs. From morning walks to afternoon garden time and evening cuddles, I’ll be around and attentive throughout their stay. I’m happy to adapt to their personality, energy level, and usual routine so they can settle in comfortably and feel at home. I have a fenced front entrance and a fenced backyard, giving your dog(s) plenty of secure space to enjoy. Our home has two entrances, and each is protected by two doors for an extra layer of security. We also keep our home intentionally quiet and peaceful, and we host only one household at a time. This allows your dog(s) to enjoy their stay without having to share the space with unfamiliar dogs.
“Boris and Olga were amazing dog-sitters. They sent me continuous updates and pictures. My dog looked really happy and calm in all. I highly recommend them.”
“Grace is amazing with our Kubo. She takes him on multiple long waks a day and sends many photos during his stay. I always know that he is well taken care of and enjoying his time with Grace and his doggy friends.”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know the hardest part of leaving your dog behind isn’t finding someone who can feed and walk them — it’s finding someone you trust to treat them like their own. That’s the kind of care I want to provide. When a dog stays with me, I want them to become part of the household for their stay: morning walks, lounging around during the day, playtime, attention when they want it, and a comfortable place to wind down at night. I only take one client household at a time. I intentionally keep my boarding small because I’d rather give one dog (or dogs from the same family) a lot of attention than manage a house full of boarding dogs. Before their stay, I like to learn what a normal day looks like at home. When do they eat? How often do they go out? Where do they usually sleep? What gets them excited? What makes them nervous? Are there any funny little habits I should know about? I’ll keep their routine as familiar as I reasonably can. I’m also a longtime dog owner with experience caring for a large senior dog, so I’m comfortable with bigger dogs and understand that older or more cautious dogs may need a little extra patience and a quieter pace. While you’re away, I’ll keep you in the loop with photos, videos, and updates from our day. If I notice anything unusual — appetite, energy, bathroom habits, or behavior — I’ll pay attention and let you know. Ultimately, I want you to enjoy your trip without wondering whether your dog is okay — and I want your dog to have a pretty great vacation too. I have a flexible schedule and live with family, so someone is home most of the time. This gives me plenty of time to fit pet care naturally into my day, with lots of company, attention, playtime, and regular breaks throughout the day. Our schedules are flexible, so it’s easy to accommodate different feeding times, routines, activity levels, and individual needs. Your pet won’t routinely be left alone for long periods and can settle into a comfortable daily rhythm while staying with us. I want every pet to feel safe, relaxed, and at home while staying with us. Before each stay, I’ll take time to learn their normal routine, personality, preferences, house rules, feeding instructions, and anything that makes them especially happy, nervous, or uncomfortable. I keep boarding intentionally small and only accept one client household at a time, so each pet gets plenty of attention in a calm, predictable home environment. We’ll follow your care instructions closely and do our best to keep their routine as familiar as possible. I also pay attention to the little things — appetite, energy, bathroom habits, and changes in behavior. You’ll receive regular photos and updates throughout the stay, and I’ll always reach out if anything seems unusual.
“Robyn and her family welcomed Pepper like one of their own. Great communication. Pepper came home happy and normal. It seems she may want to go back for all the attention.”
“Fantastic! Lanie, Matt, and their kids are an ideal family for my big energetic lab Clyde. He loves visiting houses that buzz with activity and between the walks and backyard play he came home tired and happy. Won’t hesitate to send Clyde over for more fun weekends.”
“My dogs are always happy and loved here. Indy immediately becomes part of their pack and goes out on their adventures! Even my shy girl is comfortable enough to become her playful cuddly self. I don’t know how we got so lucky to find Cheryl and Ed. THANK YOU!!!”
“Bill and his family were a great host to my dog! She had a great time and coming back home very happy. They took her to the park and walk and play with her, and give her shower. Will definitely recommend Bill and rebook with him.”
“This was our first time using Rover so I was a bit apprehensive but after a meet and greet with Olga I felt comfortable taking the next step. Dusty enjoy her little vacation with Olga and we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that Dusty was in good hands. We will certainly be asking Olga to look after Dusty again.”
“Hae Ohk took wonderful care of our 3-year-old Corgi, Brie! She thoughtfully asked about Brie’s daily diet, sleeping environment, and special care needs beforehand. She also sent lots of happy photos throughout the stay, which gave us great peace of mind. Brie came home happy, healthy, and in perfect shape! Highly recommend Hae Ohk, and we’ll definitely book with her again! ❤️”
“Amy took great care of Waffles. She even took him to an urgent vet visit to care for an ear infection he developed. Waffles came back happy and on the mend. I would definitely bring Waffles back to Amy!”
“Liz was great! She took good care of my dog for one night. She sent a bunch of pictures and was super flexible with drop off and pick up times. We will reach back out for our next petting sitting needs!”
“The best pet sitter ever! There was an unexpected situation during the stay, but they handled it right away and kept me updated. I really appreciate their quick response and genuine care.”
“I am very happy with how Turki & Madeline took care of my puppy (Archie) during an overnight stay. They were communicative and proactive. When Archie ran out of food, they informed me and went out of their way to get him more. I loved all the pictures and updates they sent. It had me feeling confident that Archie was happy and well taken care of. If only we lived in California, I would definitely book with them again.”

I highly recommend Azadeh’s services! She recently took care of my dog Kona for 4 days and I could have not asked for a better experience. From our first interaction she was incredibly professional, punctual and reliable. More importantly, she was so loving and caring towards my dog Kona, treating him just like her own. Furthermore, my dog required medicine twice a day at a precise time. That was accomplished to perfection which eased my mind and made my vacation more relaxing. Lastly, she had a lovely home and backyard and texted me on Kona’s status quite often. I will definitely book her again!
From the moment I was searching for a dog sitter to picking up my dog later on, Bill and his family has been so amazing. Fast to reply and very easy to work with. Thank you so much for taking care of Chloe. Definitely recommend Bill for anybody looking for a trusted dog sitter.
We are so thankful that we found Grant. He is super knowledgeable about dogs and I could tell that our pup, Kona, felt very comfortable with him and his family. Grant was able to provide updates often and responded back to my messages quickly. I will definitely be using his services again in the future. Thanks, Grant & family!
Ani and Kevin has been taking care of our two golden retrievers for the past 3 years every time we were on vacation, mostly one week or two weeks at a time. They took very good care of our dogs and treated them as part of their family. They took them for walks and hikes and I can tell our dogs had so much fun with their family. When I used to board our dogs at the Wag hotel, I was always worried about their well being. With Ani and Kevin, I knew they were being well taken care of and I could enjoyed our vacation while our dogs were having a great time. Thank you.
Every time we get the chance to book with Karen, we feel so lucky. Our dogs absolutely adore her and her sweet pup Squeegee, and even Ruby, who is scared of everyone else, runs right into her house. Karen even made Ruby’s birthday so special while we were away. It feels so comforting to leave them in her loving care. My kids enjoy the videos and pictures she sends so much. She’s so thoughtful in sending them frequently and is just such a genuinely good person. Thank you Karen! You’re the best!
Mathias and Courtney are the absolute best! They took such great care of my Enzo. I am so thankful to have found them. They took so many photos and videos for me throughout the entire stay helping me sleep sound at night. Their dog Maggie was the sweetest and very friendly with Enzo, they became great friends. I would recommend them 1000x.
Chendi is truly the perfect host! We’ve tried several other hosts and she was the first one where our dog Teddy wasn’t in a rush to go home when we went to pick him up 😀 That meant that he truly felt love and affection while under her care. Also, Chendi followed all of our instructions exactly as specified, gave Teddy plenty of walks, and provided us with regular updates and photos during his stay. She has our highest recommendation and we would gladly trust her to take care of Teddy again without any hesitation!
Kathleen and Henry are amazing! Bella gets excited as we pull up to their house, and their accommodations, updates throughout the day, and professional photographer level pup-photos make me smile throughout the day 😊 My schedule has been a little chaotic lately and they have been nothing but friendly and flexible! Thank you both for taking such good care of Bella, you are appreciated!
Cheryl was fantastic with Romeo. She was super flexible when my travel plans changed and made the booking extension easy, which I really appreciated. She kept me updated, communicated directly any concerns she had, and it was obvious Romeo was comfortable and well cared for.
Neha was amazing with Summer! She took great care of him and kept me regularly updated with photos and videos, which are really appreciated. Summer had a blast playing with her dog, Eevee, and came back so happy and relaxed. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’d highly recommend Neha to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!
Manasvi was great with my pup. She gave lots of updates with pics and videos and was also super easy to work with. She’s a fast responder and her apartment was nice and cozy —she even has a small bed for whichever pup is babysitting which is so thoughtful. 10/10 recommend
I’m so happy to have found Lauren! She was incredibly kind, respectful, and so loving with my dog during the overnight stay. I instantly felt peace of mind knowing I was leaving my dog in such capable and patient hands. She made sure to follow my dog’s routine, including daily walks, which I truly appreciated. I would highly recommend Lauren and will gladly reach out to her again the next time I need a pet sitter.

The average cost of Dog Boarding in Saratoga is $67 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $98 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 3,324 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Saratoga. 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.
92% of sitters in Saratoga 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 Saratoga 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 Saratoga.
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 Saratoga 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.
