“Angelica is the absolute best! Our pup loves when she sits for us. She leaves an excited puppy and returns home a happy puppy! We feel blessed to have found Angelica for our puppy to stay with when we travel. She’s truly so wonderful!”
“My dog, Belle is looking forward to seeing Lisa and staying in her home again. No separation anxiety like the first dog-sitting experiences. Lisa is very caring and responsible lady. I am happy that Belle finds her second home.”
“Jing was amazing! She was able to accommodate us at short notice and communicated with us very frequently! Our dog Brax seemed super happy and comfortable! We will definitely book her again! ☺️🐾”
“Magdalena is such a wonderful and nice sitter my dog Oreo loves her and her family…she treats Oreo like her own and I’m so grateful for her….I would recommend anyone to book her services!!! 👍🏽 she’s the best sitter 👌🏽”
“We booked Hilary last minute because our usual sitter became unavailable. We had a trip to Italy planned, and I was so stressed to leave Pebbles somewhere new while being out of the country, but HILARY WAS AMAZING!! We fell in love with the way she cared for Pebbles instantly. She had no problem with her feeding times, walks, crate needs, and even eye medication. She sent us SO MANY fun and cute pictures of Pebbles while we were out of the country that I felt super reassured. She was flexible with the pick up time (we know how LAX can be), and even willing to take an additional emergency contact while we were out of country. Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for anyone kinder, more loving, or more communicative. I will definitely request her again, and I am so glad Pebbles found a temporary home there. Thank you for everything!”
“Charlie had a great time with Janice and her boys. Lots of play time and cuddles. And she checked in with me often, sending lots of photos and video while I was away. I’ll happily bring Charlie again!”
“Rika was a fantastic pet sitter! My dog had a blast at her house. She sent me detailed updates on how my dog was doing, along with amazing pictures (they were honestly better than the ones I’ve taken myself). She truly took great care of my dog. I will 100% rebook her the next time I need a pet sitter. I can’t emphasize enough how much I appreciate her for this boarding. Thank you, Rika!”
“We love having Catherine, Albert, and Trace take care of Walter. They treat Walter like family and share all of their toys with him. We get regular updates and never have to ask them how Walter is doing. Their backyard is absolutely beautiful and dog friendly. They take our dog on strolls around town and play fetch regularly as if he is their own. I can’t say enough about how great they are and how comfortable we are leaving Walter with them. My husband especially loves the report cards Walter gets after his stay.”
“Albina was a ROCKSTAR. Our insanely scared dog loved her immediately. She made us a Christmas decoration with his name on it and homemade treats. I almost cried with how kind she was. We will be coming back!!”
“Joyce and Yu are fantastic! Very communicative and sent pics each day. My dog can be hesitant with new people and places so it was great to see that she was happy and well taken care of. Will definitely book again!”
“I was super hesitant leaving anyone with my fur baby, but Steven made this process so easy. He constantly sent updates and pics and in all the pics my Mac looked so happy. I will definitely be booking with Steven again if needed. Highly recommend.”
“We hadn’t taken an overseas vacation in over five years because it’s always been so hard for us to leave our dogs, and honestly, we struggled to find someone we truly trusted. But after our meet and greet with Janelle and Alvin, I immediately felt at ease and knew our babies would be in great hands. I’m so happy to say that instinct was absolutely right. They took care of our two dogs for two days, and the entire experience was seamless. Janelle was incredible with communication! She sent updates and photos regularly without me ever needing to ask, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. Both Janelle and Alvin have such a calm, kind demeanor, and their home is clean, cozy, and clearly a safe space for pets. One of our dogs is usually very anxious and slow to warm up to new people, but he surprised us by opening up to them right away. That alone speaks volumes. I can’t recommend them enough, and we will absolutely be booking with them again in the future! Thank you Janelle and Alvin for taking such good care of our babies!”
“Eva gave my very anxious pouch all the extra TLC I could hope for. Eva kept in constant communication when necessary and sent us adorable updates and photos. Couldn't recommend her more highly”
“Second time my dog stayed with this sitter for a few days while we were away. My dog had a great time playing in the yard and came back tired and happy from his stay!”
“First time and definitely not our last time booking with Uncle Joe. Both our pups loved the interactions, all the amenities, and the check ins of both our puppies. We had 2 1 yr old corgis and they are full of energy and different personalities. So yes i was Hesitant on interacting with different size dogs. Rest assured Joe goes above and beyond and understands dogs on a personal level. Both my pups loved the stay, loved the socializing of other dogs and played a good amount everyday. I did a week stay with joe and both my pups are quiet and sleeping currently. Once again, Joe is amazing and yes i recommend to new people who haven’t done rover before.”
“Margaret was great! Vizzy seemed to have a great time. We received adorable photos from Margaret, and Vizzy returned home from boarding and daycare happy and tired. Margaret checked in with us on his preferences and needs, and was an excellent communicator throughout his stay with her.”

Julianne did such a great job taking care of both of my babies! She was very responsive and kept me updated throughout their stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. They both came back happy and well cared for. I would absolutely trust her with them again and highly recommend her! 🐾🤍
Hadia was amazing, taking care of our Annabelle for 2 weeks while we were out of town. We could not have found a more caring, attentive sitter. She sent over many photos and updates, took her on multiple walks everyday, and was very easy to communicate with. Annabelle came home healthy, well-rested, calm, and even better on leash! Thank you Hadia!
Natalia was absolutely exceptional! From the moment we met her, she was so warm, friendly, and welcoming, and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Avalon in her care. It was clear that she cared for Avalon just as I would, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She sent great updates, was incredibly flexible, and made the entire experience so easy. Most importantly, Avalon was happy, relaxed, and clearly very well loved! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch her. We will absolutely be using Natalia again and would recommend her without hesitation! ❤️🐾
Cecilia's communication was seamless and always super fast!! She sent photos and updates of our dog Carlton throughout our trip and responded quickly to any questions we had. She was also really flexible with us when it looked like our return flight was going to be delayed. We will definitely be rebooking with Cecilia!
Our dogs loved it there. I don't think they knew that we were gone as they felt that they were on vacation. We would recommend him as they are very picky about strangers, but felt like they were at home. His father was thwere and instantly bonded with both dogs, If I ever have to Board my animals again, he is the first consideration.
We loved Amy!!! I was very worried about leaving our velcro dog mini poodle mix / maltipoo for 7 weeks. We looked at a bunch of options and none could assure us our baby girl would get all the cuddles she needed. Amy really delivered! Her dog, Niko, is so gentle and was just the right companion for our little feisty pup. Amy would send us regular pics and videos. She has a nice big backyard for the dogs to run and play. We really liked that she didn’t take on other dogs while caring for ours. She was also really patient with our dog’s unfortunate potty habits. She also got to know our dog’s normal behavior so that she alerted us right away when something seemed wrong, and was willing to take her to emergency right away. Our vacation was worry free because we could tell our baby girl was happy and was getting lots of attention and love. Thank you, Amy!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in South Pasadena on Rover is $64.2 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 9,983 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across South Pasadena. 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 Pasadena 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 Pasadena 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 Pasadena 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 Pasadena.
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 Pasadena 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.
