“It was our first time getting a sitter, Mollie and her family was AMAZING, Nala had a great time. She provided care for nala like she was her own, kept me updated and communication was great. I Will definitely book Mollie again. She was awesome! Thanks again!”
“Blanca is definitely Nalas favorite sitter. She’s so awesome at keeping me informed with how my pug is doing. She shows her so much love and attention. I appreciate how kind she is and makes me feel at ease away from my girl.”
“Sheila and her daughter were dream sitters for Bernice. They treated her like she was one of their own and spoiled her rotten. I already have plans to book them again in a couple of weeks.”
About: Hi, I’m my name is Anthony, and I have been professionally caring for pets for 15 years. My journey began as a child, but it evolved into a dedicated career where I’ve managed everything from high-energy puppies. I specialize in certain breeds, anything except "pitbulls" and pride myself on maintaining a calm, structured environment for every guest. I do gig work all the time. I would love to make this another part of my gig economy because I love our furry friends I have a big fenced backyard where small to big furry friends can run up and down, they will not get bored here! Promise that!
“Deanna was phenomenal! She helped me when I was in a pickle and needed a dog sitter on very short notice. Not only was she willing, she was incredibly accommodating, kind, and communicated regularly with updates throughout my dog’s stay. I picked up a very happy pup who’s acting like his usual self. I can’t thank Deanna enough!”
“Excellent care for Rocky as always!!! He's truly happy every single time Savanah cares for him. I feel like he's family too her family. Don't want to leave him anywhere else. Thank you”
“As usual, Jami & Frances were fantastic! My dog Murphy is pretty much a regular with them. They love him and treat him like family every time he stays with them. Communication is always clear and timely and I couldn't ask for a better sitter. They are simply wonderful.”
“Finny had such a great time with Sherry! He came home happy, tired, and honestly a little heartbroken to leave his new dog friends behind. 🐾 It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being loved and cared for like part of the family. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Rubin took our pet in for a last minute boarding and we had an overall great experience! Rubin was really good with communication whether it is asking specific questions regarding Luna or giving us certain updates. Rubin gave us a sense of confidence that Luna is being well taken care of. Great at giving daily updates and pictures! Will 1000% rebook him in the near future!”
“Molly did an incredible job looking after our sweet girl Cher. She was easygoing, responsive, sent lots of photos, and even took Cher out for play dates with new friends while we were gone! Her own Chihuahua Jasper was also a great bunk mate and became fast friends with our pup. Overall just a wonderful experience giving us piece of mind and a wonderful home away from home for our baby girl. Would definitely book again!”
“Gary was super kind, responsive, and treated our pup very well. We got regular communication updates and knew everything that was going on. We will be booking with him again.”
“I cannot recommend Donghae enough!! This was my first extended trip leaving my pup, Milo, with someone outside of my family and was very anxious about being away. While my corgi is incredibly sweet, he can also be challenging to manage and not always easy to read in terms of his body language. However, Donghae approached Milo with remarkable patience and attentiveness and I was genuinely surprised to see Milo open up to a stranger in such a short period of time. What I especially appreciated were Donghae’s thoughtful daily updates. He kept me consistently informed with detailed reports on how Milo spent his day, along with plenty of photos that gave me a peace of mind and was able to tell that he was having a good time (too much fun)… Thank you again!!!”
“Thank you so much for accepting the booking even if its late notice. Bruno had so much fun. Maritza keeps updating us with photos. Definitely gonna book again next time. Your fur babies will be well taken care of 100%. The best❤️👌”
“Angela provided exceptional care for Mousse during our ten‑day trip. Since this was the first time we’d ever left him — and given his anxiety and barking — we expected it to be difficult. Instead, Angela handled him with confidence and kindness, and he quickly warmed up to her and her beagle, Kona. Her frequent photo and video updates while we were in Japan made a huge difference for us. She ensured Mousse stayed active, comfortable, and well‑supported with walks, playtime, and dog‑park visits. I would definitely recommend her to all my friends and family.”
“Maria was fantastic! Very responsive from the beginning, open to a meet and greet with her pup, and lots of updates throughout. Would definitely reach out to her again.”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in South Gate is $63
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Gate
Sylvia watched our pups for the weekend (July 11th-13th) and no matter how many times she’s watched our pups we won’t stop being amazed at how good she is to them. The most important part of it is that she treats them like her own. One of our pups is a senior and has a lot of special needs and she always gives him all the specialized attention he needs. We couldn’t dream of a better person to take of our pups Stevie and Cooper than Sylvia. They absolutely love going to her house!
He is an amazing person, Draco has a great time with him and came back home happy. He kept me updated daily letting me know Draco was safe. I thank him for the time I was out of town and taking the time to care for my frenchie. Will forsure rebook again in the future.
This was my dogs first time boarding and it has been an amazing experience. Blanca took such great care of my dog and kept me updated the entire time which meant a lot because i was nervous for my pup so that made me feel at ease. My dog looked very well taken care of while staying with her. I would definitely book Blanca again and recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in South Gate on Rover is $61.05 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 10,074 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across South Gate. 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 South Gate 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 South Gate 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 South Gate 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 South Gate.
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 South Gate 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.
