“Anusha is an amazing sitter for Kumo. She updated us with pictures and videos every few hours which we greatly appreciated, and made us feel at ease during our vacation as we could see Kumo was having the time of her life. She even made a best friend during her stay! We're very lucky to have found her as a sitter and highly recommend!”
“Mita took amazing care of Cooper. He didn’t want to leave when I came to pick him up. I appreciated Mita’s daily updates with pictures and videos and her quick response to any questions I had. I will certainly use Mita again for future Cooper care.”
“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!”
“Socks loved his time with Malika. She kept him entertained, took him out to the park, and followed his routine perfectly. Plus, getting constant photo and video updates all day was amazing! That made me feel relaxed, knowing that Socks is in good hands! Definitely will rebook her for future boarding options for Socks. Thanks Malika, until the next time!”
“Everything went smoothly despite my puppy’s high energy. Rachel and her husband offered a meet and greet, were curious about rules I have for my pet so they could adhere to them too, they gave her great exercise and an opportunity to play with their dogs, they are experienced and have a safe home, and it seems like my puppy just really liked it there. She came back tired and happy. I would rebook.”
“He took good care of Snoopie during his stay. He even picked him up because his apartment has stairs which my dog was getting scared from. There was some issues but it got resolved and Snoopie was happy with him. Would prefer him next time.”
“Bianca was super flexible and patience with my dogs. We had two dogs that don’t get along well with one another and she graciously was willing to host both dogs. The dogs came back happy and slept as soon as they came home! My dogs have never been officially dog sat before so she made us feel comfortable and at ease while she was dog sitting. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Marta took wonderful care of our dog while we were out of the country for one week. He experienced a health issue when we were away, and Marta handled it with careful attention. She worked hard to make sure our boy was comfortable and at ease. She administered medication with confidence and communicated clearly with us as to how he was doing each day. I am thankful that we found Marta and recommend her to anyone looking for a capable, kind, dog-loving caretaker.”
“Li-Ting was absolutely wonderful! I felt totally at ease knowing my pup was in great hands! she sent lots of photos and frequent updates, was super attentive, and my dog had the BEST time with her. We can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Thank you so much for watching and taking such good care of Higgins while we were gone! It is comforting to know that not only do you all like him but he loves visiting! Thank you!”
“Cosmo did really well with Aadya! I got several updates throughout his stay and he always looked so comfy and happy in each photo. Appreciate Aadya taking good carr of my pup. I highly recommend.”
“Nadia was super sweet and loving with my fur baby. I was relieved because it was my first time leaving my dog with a Rover sitter. Nadia sent me multiple photos of my dog on a daily basis.”
“We booked with Jade because our regular sitter was out of town, but she (and her husband) may become our go to! She did a thorough meet and greet the day after we contacted her, and asked tons of great questions. She walked us through her home and yard so we saw where the pups would be (very uncommon in my experience, so I appreciated it). Their home was neat, nothing extra that the pups would get into potentially. I loved that they (and their beds) came home clean, there was only 1 additional dog (other than their 2 small ones) in their care, and they kept to our pups regular schedule. Jade and her husband take a very professional approach to their care, even though they both work and Rover is not their main gig. Thank you Jade, I’m glad we kept looking and found you. 😊 the pups loved hanging with them.”
“Took care of my pup Tofu, he well cared for and they went above and beyond by getting exposed to the outside world with many walks and treat play. We felt at ease and happy seeing Tofus update and silly side of him from all the pictures and videos !”
“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! ❤️”
“I will always recommend Diana to any dog owner! Diana is the best pet sitter we have found on Rover. Every time Ruby stays with her we are never worried about her because we know Diana treats her as one of her own 🥰. It’s sad that we are leaving the state but we hope to find someone just as great as Diana in Colorado.”
“My Cooper stayed with Azadeh for a week and had a wonderful stay. She was very responsive and provided daily updates. He looked so happy playing fetch and on daily walks. I will definitely book again. Thank you Azadeh!”
“Trishalee did a great job caring for our two little fur babies over the course of Thanksgiving week! She sent a couple of pics each day and contacted me when she realized I hadn't left her with enough food. I especially liked how close Trishalee is to our house, which made drop-off and pick up a breeze. Unfortunately, when I was picking up the doggies Trishalee informed me she's no longer going to be doing Rover boarding because they are planning to move to a different part of town and will be focusing on the move. She did tell me she will touch base if and when they decide to resume boarding services, and I'd be happy to board our doggies with Trishalee in the future if that's the case.”

It was SO wonderful to finally enjoy our first vacation in a long time without having to worry about our babies! ❤️ We came home to happy, well-loved dogs, and they even got the fun new experience of socializing with Liseth’s dogs—which they absolutely loved! Liseth was incredibly loving, caring, attentive, and wonderful with them. It was such a relief knowing they were in such good hands while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I will absolutely bring my babies back to Liseth again—and again—if she’ll have us! 🐾❤️ We feel so lucky to have found her!
We had such a great experience with Bianca! This was our first time leaving Honey at someone else’s home, and Bianca made us feel completely comfortable from the start. She followed all of our instructions, was incredibly professional and communicative, and sent us updates while we were away, which we really appreciated. Honey seemed like she had an absolute blast and was so happy and well cared for. Bianca made the whole process so easy, and we would absolutely trust her with Honey again!

My regular sitter had to cancel last minute and I was lucky enough to meet Anastasia. She took excellent care of my dog. She sent the pictures and updates that dog owners love to get when they board their dogs. I feel like Anastasia takes extra special care of the animals she watches.
We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. From the start, communication was excellent, and we felt completely at ease leaving our dog in their care. They provided updates, followed all instructions, and gave our dog plenty of attention and love. It was clear our dog was happy and comfortable. We will absolutely book again and highly recommend them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Scotts Valley is $65 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $105 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,491 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Scotts Valley. 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 Scotts Valley 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 Scotts Valley 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 Scotts Valley.
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 Scotts Valley 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.
