“What an amazing soul Nadège has! She truly is an expert at what she does and loves being around furry friends. My dog was extremely comfortable being in her home with a beautiful backyard. There were plenty of dog toys and places for my dog to rest. My dog was very happy there with zero anxiety. I have already booked my second stay with Nadège and will continue to in the future.”
“Amorn & Adam took care of my Sesame for 4 days and did an amazing job! I could tell that Sesame had a great time and felt very safe in their care! They sent lots of updates and photos/videos, which I’m grateful for, and were very flexible with pick up/drop off. I would 100% recommend them, and look forward to connecting with them again!”
“Ashton is a five-star dog sitter. My family friend cancelled at the last minute for a weekend trip. Ashton responded promptly to my request. She agreed to a friendly outdoor meet up. While I was nervous about the idea of leaving my pup behind, Ashton eased my worries by asking all the right questions. She made sure to learn my dog’s routine and habits. She sent me daily updates including pictures and was responsive to any questions or update requests while I was gone. When I picked up Ollie, I could tell my pup enjoyed his stay with Ashton. I would 10/10 recommend her services and definitely will be using her for any future sitting needs.”
“Title: Outstanding Care for Our Beloved Spike From the very first meeting, it was clear that Stephen and his partner, the dog sitters, were something special. Our 16 months old Spike took to them instantly. Throughout his stay, I was reassured with regular pictures and updates that not only showed me just how comfortable he was, but also how much fun he was having. It's not often you come across sitters who genuinely treat your pet as their own, but this is exactly what they did. Their thoughtful service exceeded all my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend them to any pet parent out there seeking peace of mind while away from their furry friend. Spike is already looking forward to his next visit!”
“Nayira was super kind and accommodating. Great communication and the boys seemed really comfortable during their stay. They got along well with Nayiras friendly Malinois, Karma.”
“Best boarding experience my pup has ever had! He’s not exactly the easiest boy to handle given how energetic he is, but after our initial meet and greet with Ashlee I had 0 concerns. She told me about the dog rescue organization she created so she definitely will give your pup the care and attention they need. She also took my dog on pack walks and long hikes around Runyon Canyon! She has so much space on her fenced off property and the sweetest dogs of her own that all played well with my pup and helped keep him busy! I genuinely believe he had a better time than I did while I was away. He came home cuddly and so tired so I know he had a blast! Would recommend her to all of my friends and everyone else reading this”
“I will definitely use them again. They treated Frank as they would their own. They provided daily updates and pictures which made me feel so at ease. He looked so happy in every photo. He even went back to Elaine for pets when I picked him up so I know he really liked her. They are truly the best. Frank can’t wait to be babysat again.”
“Nicole and a Michael are AMAZING! I’m so happy I had found them to watch my 16 week old pup and 1.5yo! I didn’t feel comfortable leaving my young puppy at a boarding facility just yet. We are so grateful finding them last minute! They have a small dog and another doodle, similar weights to mine. They also have a kitty and a couple of young kids. Leaving them with playmates and learning how to be around children and cats was a plus! We were gone for 4 nights; she was super flexible with the dates and gave us her rover first time discount! Was so nice to be on vacation and not worried about our pups and how they’re doing!! I told her she can send a lot of pics and videos and she did! ?? They were definitely in good hands and having so much fun!! She trained our little one to be on a leash too! They are right next to their apartment’s dog park and it’s great size. I left some new treats with them, and she informed me right away that our puppy had bad poops and was going to discontinue use. I highly recommend Nicole and Michael. Sweet couple!”
“We’ve used James a few times and he’s always great to work with! He sends daily updates, responds quickly and is easygoing. We’re happy to have someone we can trust to watch our dog. We recommend him and will continue to use his services so long as he’s willing.”
“Joanna was very flexible, kind, and attentive for a 4 night boarding! She sent regular photo updates and took my doggo on many walks despite the rainy holiday week. I’m so grateful that I found her and will definitely take Luca back for my future trips!”
“Chan was amazing with our Ella! She is a unique dog, and Chan was able to tune into her needs. He sent so many updates to let us know how she was doing. He also did activities for her specific needs. A wonderful experience all around! Can’t wait to book again.”
“This is the first time we left our Great Dane, Ody, with a sitter and needless to say we were anxious. Emma did a meet and greet with us several days before which helped calm our nerves. She is extremely sweet and sent us photos throughout the boarding and took great care of our dog! Thanks Emma:)”
“I highly recommend booking with Mandie S. We were staying in Burbank where pets were not welcome and I am so glad I was able to book at Mandie's. I knew Celeste and Rocky really enjoyed their stay because Mandie sent me videos of them wrestling in the morning, the way they always do at home. Celeste has allergies and Mandie knew just what to do because her Shit-Zu also has allergies. Mandi gave me a bag of special hypo-allergenic dog food to try at home to see if it will help Celeste as much as it helped her dog! Now that is going above and beyond what most sitters would do! Communication was prompt as was drop off and pick up.”
“Lily had a fun sleepover at Sarah’s place for a few days. Sarah has a beautiful backyard and sent me updated photos of Lily having a good time. She told me that Lily was having a good time and that made me so happy that she was in good hands. I’m glad a found an occasional sitter for Lily! She’ll be back soon :)”
“Arizona had a wonderful stay with Kate and Aaron. She settled in quickly and felt comfortable from the very first day. They kept me updated with photos and messages, which made the whole experience easy and stress-free. Really liked those pictures from the back yard playtime. I would definitely book with them again. Arizona loved her time there, and I felt confident leaving her in their spacious home.”
“I always try to book Peter, especially over Christmas when my trips are two to three weeks long. I trust him completely and wouldn’t feel comfortable leaving my girl with anyone else. During her most recent stay, I had been struggling to help her gain weight after switching her diet. When I picked her up, she had finally put on the weight she needed, and Peter explained the thoughtful steps he took to make that happen. He consistently goes above and beyond, and it’s clear how much he truly cares for the dogs in his care. On the rare occasions when he hasn’t been available, I’ve spent my entire trip feeling uneasy. Other sitters may be fine, but they’re just not Peter. If you know, you know.”
About: Lifelong pet parent to dogs, cats, fish, birds and hamsters. I also petsit for all my friends and love working with the big two (dogs and cats). I also have 3 years of volunteering experience with the Pasadena Humane Society, where I worked with socializing dogs. I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. I am available almost any day for walks, feedings, check-ins and overnight boards. I am available most times of day/night as well. No matter which pet I take care of, I act and treat them as if they were my own. Pets can feel vulnerable without their parents and I do my best to ease anxiety for an easier visit.
“I've previously written a review and just want to chime in that we have only had GREAT experiences working with Barbara. Our schedules tend to change with our constant attempt to bypass the volume of traffic in the Valley and LA. Barbara has consistently gone out of her way to accomodate us. She is always pleasant and our furbaby, Raffle, has a great time when staying with her. THANK YOU for all you do!!! XO”
“Santho was a super accommodating, caring, and responsive dog sitter. We felt 100% comfortable leaving our pup in her care. I would highly recommend her to any pet parent. Thank you so much Santho!”

Alina was an incredible sitter for my dog moose! he stayed with her over the july 4th holiday- moose is a rescue with some special needs, including fear of fireworks and other dogs. Alina treated moose with care and compassion, and she gave me honest updates if moose was struggling (without me needing to ask). it is such a relief to have found someone who seriously cares about moose and will go the extra mile to make sure he is cared for and that I know how he is doing!! I will definitely be hiring Alina again, and would recommend her to any dog owner, especially those who might need a little extra support.
Joanna could not have been more kind and accommodating. My Daisy is with me all the time so it takes her awhile to warm up to someone new. Daisy knew a dog lover right off the bat. I saw her instantly bond with Joanna. I received photos all the time, and next time I need boarding, I will contact Joanna.
Sarah was great with our dog Ryder who had some extra separation anxiety while staying with her for the first time and kept her up at night- especially during the 4th of July weekend with fireworks etc. Sarah was communicative about this so we could help problem solve and work towards a solution for the remainder of Ryder’s stay. She was also flexible with pick up and drop off times. Would love to book with her again if she is open to it!
I found my new boarder for my girls. My former boarder was flaky couldn’t fulfill my dates so I turned to Stephen and David and couldn’t be happier. I went on vacation with not a worry on how they were doing back home. I got many updates and pictures and picked up two very content dogs.
I have a hard time boarding or trusting sitters to watch Phoebe (my shy, sometimes fussy, 9 yr old mini doodle) but Sarah let me set up a meet and greet first. I immediately knew Phoebe would be in good hands under Sarah’s care while I needed to be away for two days. Sarah is so warm and friendly. I also loved not having to worry if Phoebe would get along with other dogs, since she only watches one dog at a time. Sarah sent me an update the next morning, with a picture of Phoebe lounging on a chair, which gave me added peace of mind that Phoebe was comfortable in her home too. I would definitely call her again to watch Phoebe in the future and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent and responsible sitter. Thank you Sarah!
Renata is amazing! She took the time to understand my baby and make me feel comfortable and reassured that my dog was understood. I truly appreciate that not only did she made our vacation stress free, I genuinely feel like she took the time to understand her behaviors and created an environment that made me feel safe that she was in good hands while I was away and one for my baby that felt truly loved and cared for. Thank you so much Renata for everything ❤️🩹
Thank you so much, Kay! You are the best sitter Cupcake and I could ever ask for! I told my daughter that Cupcake was so excited to see you that she ran to you and never looked back. My daughter said that that’s because she really loves, trusts, and missed you! Thank you for trashing, Cupcake so well!
We've used Cassie’s services twice now and have had a great experience both times! She took wonderful care of Holly, kept us updated with messages and photos, and was always responsive and easy to communicate with. She was also very flexible and accommodating, which we really appreciated. Best of all, Holly always seems happy and excited to be at her place, which gives us so much peace of mind. It's clear that Holly is well cared for and treated like part of the family while she's there. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter, and we will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - Sherman Oaks
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Sherman Oaks on Rover is $53.28 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 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 July 2026, there are 8,764 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Sherman Oaks. 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.
94% of Sherman Oaks 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 Sherman Oaks 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 Sherman Oaks 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 Sherman Oaks.
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 Sherman Oaks 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.
