“Nancy and her husband welcomed our dog with open arms. She responded very quickly to our request and we were able to set up a meet and greet that same night. She took very good care of our fur baby Chloe. We got pictures and updates every day. She was very flexible with the pick up and drop off times, which is a ++. We will definitely use her service again. She is highly recommended.”
“Our dog had a great time with Rachel. She was sending us loads of pictures every day and we felt at ease being away. I will recommend her if you need help with your pet.”
“Angelika did a great job watching my dog, Fawn! Throughout the process of watching her she sent me updated pictures of how Fawn was doing when staying at her place, and was flexible about the drop off/pick up time! I’d recommend Angelika to others who are looking for somewhere for their doggie to stay while they’re on a vacation or what not. :)”
“5 Star Review!! I am so please we picked to leave Beignet with Jennifer and David. Beignet was very happy, got a lot of exercise and even went up to Jennifer to say goodby when we picked him up. Jennifer sent us pictures, and kept us up to date on how Beignet was doing. I will leave Beignet with Jennifer and David anytime.”
“We are so grateful for Yajaira's care of our little dog. Our dog is shy with new people but within just an hour or two Yajaira had already won her over, taken her for a walk and sent photos of our little dog relaxing in the house. We loved getting the cute photos and updates while we were away. Yajaira has excellent communication and it's no wonder why she has many 5-star reviews from pet parents. We'll gladly book with her again when we need a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Yajaira!”
“We’ve never left our dog with anyone but immediate family and never with anyone for 12 days. Anusha managed our high energy dog perfectly and developed a rapport with him right away. She also managed my own anxiety by sending photos and videos twice daily to show me that our dog was relaxed and happy in her care. I can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she provided.”
“Ceili took great care of our dog, Willy, over the Fourth of July weekend. She was wonderful to work with—very responsive whenever we had questions and kept us updated throughout his stay. Willy had a great time with her, and it was clear he was well cared for. She was also incredibly accommodating when our plans changed slightly, which we really appreciated. We’d absolutely trust her with Willy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring Rover sitter!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Megha and his family! They are extremely responsive and communicative, and they clearly love dogs. We received tons of photos and videos, which made us feel at ease the whole time. They were very thorough, took our dog on plenty of walks, and gave her lots of attention. Truly a wonderful family of dog lovers. Don’t look any further, we’ll definitely book with them every time again!”
“Leo was so good with my Ice Bear. I was updated with her daily activities and received pictures as well. I felt reassured that my baby was in good hands. I would love to have Ice Bear stay with Leo again. Thank you.”
“Malika was an amazing cat sitter for Gigi! Gigi is very shy and cautious around new people, but Malika was very patient and knew how to help her feel comfortable. Gigi is also a 16 year old senior cat with a more specific feeding routine, and Malika followed everything carefully. She sent regular updates a few times a day which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Malika was communicative and very knowledgeable about cats. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”
“Susie was very informative, responsive and kind. She sent lots of pictures and updates which helped feeling comfortable with a new sitter for my grandpup. Milo was very well taken care of and we already have her booked for upcoming dates. I strongly recommend her to sit, walk or care for your pet.”
“Kimberly is just wonderful! She’s kind, dependable and stays in communication making it easy to enjoy your time away knowing they are in good hands. I’ve used her services a few times over the last year and highly recommend her! Thank you, Kimberly, for such great care and love for my dogs.”
“TL; DR Li-Ting is a great sitter and I highly recommend her. Li-Ting has been taking care of our dog with love and attention to every details. Our dog is very sensitive to new environment and she doesn’t always get along with other dogs. However, from the daily updates from Li-Ting, I can see our dog is getting used to the environment and the companion with her body language. Thanks again for taking good care of our flurry daughter and we truly appreciate it.”
“Holly was absolutely amazing. Me and my fiance dropped off Maggie not knowing what to expect but she had a blast with plenty of room to run and sniff. We got multiple pictures every day especially super cute ones. I cannot sing her praise enough this was absolutely amazing and 11/10 would recommend.”
“I am so thankful to have found Lucy and her family to take care of Snowball! Lucy and her girls met with us beforehand to make sure Snowball would feel comfortable staying with them. They showered him with lots of affection! From the pictures she sent, I could see that Snowball gets a lot of hugs, head massages and cuddles from the family! Lucy sent a lot of updates and photos of Snowball everyday and he is very happy in all of them! I would trust them to watch Snowball anytime! Thanks Lucy and family!!”
“Michael and Mindy took such great care of Snooki! He was healthy and happy when we picked him up, and they kept in great communication with photos and updates. Snooki bonded with them which was a great comfort to us. We would be happy to have them sit Snooki again in the future and definitely recommend them.”
“I was lucky to find Michelle and Michael. My dog is young golden retriever with high energy. Michelle and Michael gave my dog plenty of cuddles and attention. They gave my dog long walk and played fetch with him. Michelle sent me updates frequently that helped relieve my separation anxiety. I couldn't be happier to have my dog stay with Michelle and Michael, who are really nice and caring people.”
“Jung Eun and her partner were great with our dog Clyde! Clyde is a rescue and naturally very anxious and shy. However, he felt totally comfortable with Jung Eun and even snuggled with her, which is a big deal as he has a hard time opening up to new people. We did a meet n greet first, and then this trial overnight as we’ll be out of the country for 3 weeks. Thank you to Jung Eun for all the photos and videos - they definitely made me feel at ease, knowing Clyde was in good hands. He looks forward to seeing you soon :)”
“Bali was great! Frida felt very comfortable with the family and got her daily snuggles. She’s Very accommodating since our pup loves to cuddle up on a bed or couch.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Scotts Valley
Anne was wonderful with our 2 ½ year old golden while we visited the area for a wedding. Did a brief meet-and-greet, and when things seemed good, we dropped Estes off the next day en route to the event. We booked overnight boarding, but Anne was flexible and allowed us to stop by for pick up after 9 pm. During her short stay Estes had two good walks, lots of play at home, dinner, and a rest ! Whew. Thanks
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.
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.

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Scotts Valley on Rover is $65.49 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 2,477 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 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.
92% of Scotts Valley 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 Scotts Valley 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 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.
