“Christopher was very easy to communicate with making our planning and execution simple. Our dog loved “doggy vacation” and I loved all the pictures and videos. Our dog came home happy, healthy and well cared for.”
“Andrew and Karrie are wonderful hosts. My dog was well taken care of, and they were open to communicating with us while our dog was under their care. I recommend them without hesitation and will use them again.”
“Just the most lovely family! They took such good care of my pup while I was away. I highly recommend them! Thanks so much for your patience and kindness with my pup.”
“I had never boarded Oliver before, but Chase made us all - dog and humans - feel comfortable and confident right off the bat. He's got a great setup, a great schedule, and a great calm demeanor my dog instantly appreciated. We will definitely be back!”
About: I have had pets all of my life, and have always loved and treated them as family members. I have raised puppies, cared for elderly dogs, and trained several breeds of varying ages. I've even raised a doodle...Honestly, I feel like I can do anything after that! My daily schedule is flexible, and I can adjust it as needed. This allows me to focus on your pet and give them the attention that they need and deserve. We have a fenced yard and dog doors for easy access at our home. Our pets are always treated as family, and yours will be too.
“Rachel and her family took great care of our puppy this holiday season. She kept us posted on how he was doing and I think he even learned a few things from her dogs.”
“Ashley is a wonderful pet sitter for our dog. She takes very good care of her and communicates with us every day our dog is with her. She truly loves the pets that she cares for”
“Brittany took great care of our dogs. One takes meds, and the other is super anxious. Both dogs were well cared for. Brittany walked them and kept us updated with texts and pictures. Highly recommended.”
“Diana’s care for CoCo is very good and thorough. The place is clean and everything was in order. Coco was happy and relaxed there and liked to play with Diana’s daughter. We are very happy for her service.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Thomas as our first-time dog sitter! My wife and I were able to take a much-needed vacation to Las Vegas for four-nights knowing our dog, Miley, was in great hands. Thomas kept in just the right amount of communication—sending occasional photos and short videos that really put us at ease. He even went above and beyond by buying Miley a small toy, which was such a thoughtful touch. The meet-and-greet went smoothly, and both drop-off and pick-up were easy and pleasant. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely be booking with Thomas again. Highly recommend!”
“My cat is always skittish at the beginning of boarding or any routine changes, but I could see how content and playful she looked in the photos and videos Cayley sent. I think she enjoyed the small family environment and was given everything she needed. Thank you for taking in Smoke when other plans didn't work out! We're glad to expand her circle of caregivers.”
“She took such amazing care of my dog! ❤️ From the moment we met, I knew my pup was in great hands. She was kind, reliable, and kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved every minute. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Maryam was absolutely wonderful with Fiona. She was very accommodating when I needed to change the dates, which I truly appreciated. She also took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand so our dogs could meet, which made me feel even more comfortable. Her dog is very friendly and gets along well with small dogs, and Fiona fit right in. Maryam kept me updated with pictures and clearly took such great care of Fiona. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. I would highly recommend Maryam to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and thoughtful dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“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!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“As always, Hope (my doggy) had a wonderful time with Susan! Susan is an amazing pet sitter…she even bathed Hope!!! I highly recommend Susan, and will definitely use her again!”
“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
“Elaine and Martin were wonderful. We received daily pictures and videos update during our trip that made us feel at ease. They took such great care of our elderly baby that I'm not sure she wanted to come back home. We're so happy to have connected with them.”
“Would 100% rebook with Siobhan! Took incredible care of my pug, was super quick to respond and sent me updates so I didn’t worry once. Would give 10 stars if it let me!”
“Kareen was an amazing caretaker to our sweet Maize! Maize requires a lot of care and attention and Kareen was so attentive to her needs. She gave her insulin injections and eye drops twice a day. Maize seemed so happy when we picked her up. I’d highly recommend Kareen as a sitter! :)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Simi Valley
I hate to sound like a stuck record, but we cannot say enough about Andrew and Karrie. Our German Shepherd loves being there and always comes home happy. She played with other dogs, was given treats, and Karrie even brushed her out. We have such a peace of mind whenever our dog is with Andrew and Karrie.
Chase was absolutely wonderful and communicative. He sent many photo and video updates for my dog Onyx throughout his stay. His home is neat and tidy and he provides a calm environment for your animals to relax and enjoy. Will definitely be booking chase again the next time we are away. 😊
Chris is a fantastic dog sitter! He is super knowledgeable, deeply caring, and kept us updated with photos and messages. It’s clear he truly understands dogs and loves what he does. We felt completely at ease leaving our pet in his care and would 100% recommend him to other pet parents!
Travis is an outstanding dog sitter who cares about the dogs that he boards and makes certain that the dogs are safe and secure with other dogs on his property. He is very conscientious by keeping us informed with messages and videos. He is well experienced regarding the behavior of the dogs and their health while boarding in his home. We intend to use Travis in the future and would unequivocally recommend him to other pet owners.
Yidan was very accommodating to our Mochi boy’s needs. She was kind and inviting of her space. She sent wonderful pictures and videos of our dog playing and walking with her dog. She took our boy with very short notice and took very good care of him. We highly recommend Yidan for anyone who needs a kind attentive person who is trustworthy to give care for your furry companions! We would absolutely use her again in the future!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Simi Valley on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 5,882 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Simi 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.
94% of Simi 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 Simi 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 Simi 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 Simi 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 Simi 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.
