“Kiyarash really went above and beyond for our dogs when one of them had an issue while in his care. He has such compassion for them. He communicated very well with me and was so good to them. I highly recommend boarding with Kiyarash.”
“Mariia made this experience of leaving our two dogs for a week for the very first time so much easier. We were really nervous. She sent us pics and videos every day which really made us feel comfy. I would absolutely book with her again. Thanks Mariia!”
About: I have taken care of many dogs. I used to have a Samoyed and a multipoo myself for many years previously. I love how affectionate dogs are. I am great at sticking to feeding schedules. I enjoy petting and playing with a dog kindly and gently. I have a big backyard that is fenced where a dog can run and play safely. I work part time, not everyday, and just a few hours a day, so I am a great companion to your sweet lovable pet. I am gentle, caring, loving, warm hearted. I am very empathetic to pets because they are loving beings. I will often take them for bathroom breaks, pet, and feed on schedule. I want the pet to feel safe and happy and the owner to relax and enjoy their time away. I have a fenced backyard. I accept cats or small dogs only. The pet will have space to run and play. I am gentle with my voice and my affection to the pet. I have a big heart and am also good at keeping a feeding schedule. I am warm hearted and responsible.
About: As an enthusiastic dog lover , i bring more than just my affection for animals to every pet sitting job. My experience has taught me the importance of understanding each dog's unique needs and preferences. I specialize in creating a warm, engaging environment where your furry friend will feel right at home. I'm currently studying part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pet(s). I'm available for weekends and weekdays as well most of the time. i have a big fenced yard and a playful dog at home who will keep your pet busy and engaged and happy all the time .
“To say they go above and beyond is not enough. Stanislava and Mario have always been extremely flexible when travel plans change, and very accommodating of our rescue dog’s many needs. They are incredibly kind and understanding, both to dogs and humans and, as always, we recommend them 1000 percent to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Zues loved his time with Carter. He was treated so well, my mom was afraid he would not want to go home with her. The smile on his face said it all. Cater played with him, sent us pictures. Some great actions shots. Our Zues is very active and loves the attention. Thank you Carter for an amazing week with Zues.”
“Magenka is a very compassionate and attentive sitter who clearly understands how to care for anxious dogs. Throughout my dog’s stay, she sent regular updates and photos. I also really appreciated her flexibility when I needed to extend the stay by a few hours. She’s an amazing sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Ryan & Abbey always go above and beyond when it comes to caring for your dog. You’ll feel completely at ease leaving your furry friend with them, knowing they’re in loving and capable hands. They truly provide exceptional care and treat every dog as if they were their own!”
“Maryam looked after our dog when we left him with her during our vacation. We received several pictures of him and we were kept frequently updated of how he was doing. He was taken care of very well. We would recommend her to others.”
“Tomoko and family were amazing! They sent videos each day and provided updates. Our dog looked like she had the time of her life and I was worried she wouldn't want to come home with us after her stay! ? ?”
“Larissa was great with my Timothy. She provided me with updates and pictures before I even asked for them. Timothy seemed to have a great time with her pets, I would not hesitate to book her again. He seemed to be well taken care of and I felt relaxed and at ease while he was under her care.”
“We highly recommend Cedric. He and his family took exceptional care of our dog while we were out of the country. He kept us updated and it was evident our dog was very happy and comfortable in Cedric's home. We look forward to rebooking with Cedric for our next trip. Cedric and his family are wonderful.”
“Mary was great with my dog. He doesn’t like everyone, who does? Lol But he did great with Mary and their dog. I couldn’t have asked for more, really. He’s very active and they let him run 2x a day plus he got to cool off in their pool. If you’re concerned about leaving your dog, choose Mary, it will make you feel good every time you go away:)”
“Dane was a great help in caring for the pups during the LA fires. He was flexible and responsive. Recommend his help, the dogs had a great time there. Thanks again”
About: I have experience in the veterinary field through a veterinary science program that prepared me for pre-veterinary studies. I volunteered over 40 hours with the Chesterfield Humane Society (Virginia) as well with kennel cleaning, walking and play, administering medicine, etc. I acquired skills such as grooming, daily care to include feeding and walking, neonatal care, noticing problems and signs of distress, medicinal administration techniques, and I even have a yorkipoo and shihpoo of my own. My yorkipoo is 16 years old. I’m very comfortable with dogs and I consider mine my furry, fluffy babies. I know how important your pets are, so I treat them how I would want mine to be treated when I need pet care. I mostly work from home and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to spend a significant amount of time with pets throughout the day. I can provide daycare, walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I have a senior 17-year-old Yorkipoo, so my apartment is already safety-proofed and designed with pets in mind. My home has hardwood floors so messes are easy to solve, and I prioritize a calm, clean, secure environment.
“Thank you Annabelle, Ben (and Ranger too) for taking wonderful care of my dog Luna. We will definetly use them again and recommend their service to family and friends. They are patient and kind and opened their home to our rambunctious dog. The photos of her playing, going for walks and "chillin" helped this fur mommy know she was happy and being well cared for.”
“It was my first time using Rover, and I’m so thankful that I chose Julie to take care of my dog. She was so kind and helpful, and cared for him as if he was one of her own. He had a difficult time adjusting to his new environment at first, but Julie was so patient with him! I can’t recommend her enough!! Will definitely keep booking her for my dog’s future stays. :)”
“Bouvier was a breath of fresh air. We initially did a meet and greet at a local dog park. Bouvier was on time and kind. She instantly clicked with Pepper and I knew from that moment, my dog was in good hands. Bouvier sent pictures acc have updates as promised. My dog must of had such a great time that when I went to pick her up, it seemed like she forgot me( for minute there). I will be using Bouvier in the future for all my pet sitting needs.”

This was our first time leaving Ginger with anyone for an extended period — almost a week — and we were nervous going in. Armitee put us completely at ease. She sent regular updates with photos, treated Ginger like her own dog, and Ginger came home happy and relaxed. We'll definitely be booking with her again.
Paola responded quickly before, during, and after our week away. She sent fun photos and was always very reassuring about caring for our 4 month old puppy. Teresa is loving, easy going about puppy issues, and keen to follow all our current care schedules and training. Our little guy was happy and clearly well cared for when we picked him up. We will definitely be repeat customers!

Khrystyna and her son took wonderful care of Chapo! He looked genuinely happy and relaxed in the photos and updates she sent, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Drop-off and pick-up were both smooth and easy. We’d definitely book with Khrystyna again!
Magenka W. provided a loving and safe stay for my elderly dachshund mix, who has several serious health conditions. Olive has collapsing trachea, Cushing's disease and spinal issues, and the collapsing trachea becomes problematic when she is stressed. Because Magenka gave Olive such good care, none of those conditions caused her problems. Olive is also very picky and wary of anyone but me, but when I picked her up on the last day of her stay with Magenka, she seemed reluctant to leave Magenka's side. Magenka had sent me pictures and texts throughout Olive's stay, so I didn't worry about Olive and was able to enjoy my family vacation. I heartily recommend Magenka as a caregiver of my beloved Olive!
Cynthia was so enthusiastic about caring for Willy and wasn’t worried about his medication requirements (including applying eye ointment) at all. Willy - who is a pro with Rover stays - seems to have taken on this new family with ease. We will definitely use Cynthia’s service in the future.
We had such a great experience with Kalani and Tomoko. They took great care of our dog summer when we were on a trip and truly made summer feel at home by not only caring for her but also spending time playing and lounging with her. Tomoko and Kalani were very communicative and sent us pictures and videos of summer (where she looked so happy) and talked to us when there were potential health concerns. I am so grateful of their incredible care of summer and would 1000% recommend them to anyone who loves their dogs.
Pramodh took excellent care of our dog Max while we were away. He kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear that he treated Max like part of his own family. Max looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We really appreciated the attention, responsibility, and kindness Pramodh showed. I would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him. Thank you, Pramodh!
Silvana and her family took great care of Josi while we were away for the week. They have an awesome setup, including a large backyard that I’m sure the dogs love. We really appreciated their attention to detail and how thoughtfully they looked after Josi. We forgot to bring her collar, and they kindly provided a spare one during her stay, you can tell they genuinely care. Thank you!

FAQs for Dog Boarding - West Hills
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in West Hills is $45 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $64 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 7,740 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across West Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in West Hills can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Hills home-away-from-home, 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 West Hills.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 West Hills 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 , 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 .
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.
