“This was my second time booking with Christopher and once again he was awesome. He takes such good care of Mochi and always sends updates and pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind. He’s also very accommodating with my schedule changes. Mochi is always happy and relaxed when I pick him up. I really appreciate his reliability and kindness, I’ll definitely keep booking with him!”
“Our dog dash loves Andrew, Karrie, and Fritzi! He had a great time- seemed happy when we picked him up and then was happy when we dropped him off again for another stay! and we love the text updates they send while we are away from our Dash!”
“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!”
“What a wonderful family! Daisy was well cared for and loved on. I appreciate all the videos and great communication during Daisy's stay. Daisy enjoyed her time. Looking forward to her next stay.”
“Rachel and Demetra were great!They are exactly how we are as a family… Waiting back, very family oriented with both our dogs, and as we are with our kids. Our dog had such a wonderful weekend with them”
“Neda treated our baby girl like an absolute queen! We reached out to her last minute as our usual dog sitter couldn’t watch Roxy. She agreed to let us meet her beforehand and we brought Roxy too- everyone vibed really well! Neda took Roxy on walks and gave us little updates with photos. You can tell Neda really has a passion for animal care and she treated Roxy like one of her own.”
“Kareen was absolutely wonderful with my newly rescued dog, Journey. I had adopted Journey from a rescue only a couple weeks before and, given his behavioral issues, was concerned about how he’d react to a new person. Kareen’s calm and kind manner enabled Journey to feel secure and loved.”
“Thomas took great care of my cat while we were away. His home quickly became his new home away from home. He also provided updates with photos which I always appreciate.”
“Brittany has been amazing with my pup who has some separation anxiety. He gets excited when he realizes where we are headed, he practically busts the door down to get in!”
“Elaine and Marty are wonderful! I travel for work and had been leaving Zoey at a camp. She would come home disheveled, tired and off her schedule. What a difference this time. Zoey was happy, spoilt with attention, ate well and came home clean, undisturbed in her schedule and happy. I felt at peace with no guilt for leaving her. Zoey is very skittish and easily frightened by noise but realized she was safe with her new BFF Elaine. Wonderful people and will definitely be using them again. Thank you Elaine & Marty♥️”
“Dawn & her family were incredible! She was able to accommodate a last minute schedule change & saved our weekend getaway. Emmett had so much fun with her dog as well & came home ready to sleep the rest of the day away. I would highly recommend her to any pet owners who need a sitter.”
“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”
“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! 😊”
“Travis M. was an awesome fit for my lil Anne. After the meet and greet I knew I had chosen the right sitter. Travis is very knowledgeable and super nice. Him having years of vet tech experience left me at ease as my little girl has to take insulin twice a day and monitored. He sent videos everyday and pictures. What a blessing to have found him. I would recommend Travis and will use him again!”
“April and her husband are amazing! Great communication and I received quality pictures and videos! The updates made me feel at ease. I could see that Mei Mei was enjoying herself and learned that she’s a natural guard for babies?! I appreciated the attentiveness and care they gave to her. Thank you for being flexible and patient with me as I adjusted the drop off time and ended up experiencing a delay en route. 🙏🏽 I would definitely book again and have peace of mind knowing she was well taken cared of. Good energy and dog lovers for sure. Definitely worth 🐾 - pawsing and considering. 😆 Thank you again! 🌼”
“We were visiting Las Vegas and needed last‑minute care for our two elderly dogs, and Diane truly went above and beyond. Not only did she welcome both of our girls on short notice, she cared for them for four days during a week of extreme heat — something they wouldn’t have tolerated safely. This was our first time using Rover, and Diane made the entire experience feel easy and reassuring. She was wonderfully communicative from start to finish, sending updates and photos throughout their stay. One of our girls, Sherry, had an upset stomach, and Diane was so attentive and comforting, letting us know she was keeping a close eye on her. Her kindness allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our dogs were in safe, loving hands. We are incredibly grateful for her care and hope to use her babysitting services again. Diane is truly a gem, and we can’t thank her enough.”
“Erika was wonderful with my husky. She sent me pictures and updates to reassure me my dog was happy and healthy. My dog seemed very content staying with Erika and I would highly recommend her.”
“We boarded our 5-month-old puppy with Mariia for a day, and she was wonderful. She was caring, attentive, and kept us updated. Our pup felt safe, happy, and well taken care of. We’d gladly recommend Mariia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”

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!
I am so grateful to Andrew and Karrie for being such lovely caregivers for my senior dog. I am glad I have connected with them. My senior pup, Nala, is very happy, comfortable and well cared for when I am out of town. She loves the opportunity to socialize with other friendly pets. I highly recommend Andrew and Karrie to others needing a caring place for their furbabies when they are away from home. We will certainly be back. Thank You.
Kareen was wonderful with our older labradoodle. Sent photos and updates while we were in our trip and she was so reassuring. Our older pup has several challenges ( hearing and vision impaired) and Kareen was so conscientious about everything. Highly recommend her services!
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 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 5,835 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.
