“Debbie and Bill took such wonderful care of our baby boy, Bodie! They were so easy to work with, they sent us photos and made sure to check in with us while we were away. I’m so happy to have found Debbie and Bill! Thank you for everything- we will definitely be rebooking!”
“Anne and Jason were wonderful and took great care of our old dog Coco. They provided us with updates and pictures of our dog which gave us great peace of mind. She seemed so content with the care they provided that she almost didn’t want to come home. Would definitely have them watch my pet again.”
About: I have a lifelong passion for dogs and years of hands-on experience caring for them. I currently have two Huskies of my own, so I'm comfortable with high-energy breeds and understand the importance of exercise, structure, and attentive care. I also grew up with dogs throughout my life, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. In addition, worked for over a year with a dog rescue, where I cared for dogs with different temperaments and needs, including feeding, walking, cleaning, and helping them feel safe and comfortable. I'm dependable, patient, and committed to providing every dog with the love, attention, and care they deserve. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Each day, my dogs have routine feedings and walks. There is always plenty of fresh filtered water, exercise, playtime, and checking that they are healthy and comfortable. They also receive plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation. I believe consistency and routine are important because they help pets feel secure, healthy, and happy. Our dog care routine includes scheduled feedings to maintain a consistent diet and healthy eating habits. Walks are provided twice a day, with the duration and timing adjusted based on outdoor temperatures to ensure your dogs' safety and comfort. In addition, your dog will enjoy multiple 15-minute play sessions throughout the day, providing mental stimulation, exercise, and plenty of opportunities for fun and engagement.
“My dog absolutely loves Carolyn and is so well loved and cared for by her during her stay. My dog has stayed with Carolyn 3 times now and I can definitely say I don’t worry one bit about her while she’s there.”
“I am so thankful for the quality care they provided for my senior dog. They were not only friendly to me but also to my dog who has high degree of separation anxiety with strangers. After the first stay for 10 days with them in April, my dog learned to be separated and be under someone else’s care with no major problems. The sitter’s dog also helped my Hayannie go through transition smoothly. I dropped her off and let her stay another 10 days in June with no worries for they already know my dog. I thank them for special care for my dog who can’t hear and see well. My dog seems well adjusted to Jahyung and Michael’s loving and extra ordinari care.”
“Eric took care of our 2 dogs on 2 separate occasions and every thing was great. Sent lots of pics and updates with what they were doing. We felt our dogs were well taken care of and we didn’t worry. We used Rover sitters a few other times and will use Eric from now on. 5 stars for sure!”
“Jessica was easy to work and communicate with. Our pup Rudy had a great time by the looks of all the photo updates we got! Very trustworthy and we would definitely use again!”
“I had just finished writing an extensive and detailed message, explaining how they were great with First timers using this kind of service, but then my phone froze and deleted that long detailed review and I’m not gonna take the time to do it again 🤣. Just know that they knew how to handle first timers. I highly recommend them.”
“Magda took care of my pet Juniper very well and is very experienced. I was initially anxious about leaving her with a new person and place but was comforted by her updates and hearing Juniper adapted quickly. I'll be back if I need more boarding in the future!”
“The photos that were sent show my dog in absolute heaven. Smiles while lounging on the lawn and total submission for a belly rub. I am very comfortable with the care Gizmo is receiving from Crisabel.”
About: I’ve owned all kinds of animals from yellow labs to schnauzers cats and even thoroughbred racehorses! Your pets will be well taken care of and looked after like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my structured daily routine. Because my schedule is predictable and steady, your dog receives consistent attention, regular potty breaks, and structured play throughout the day. I have a spacious home where pets can roam and have enough space to feel free and enjoy their time while you’re away and trust that they’re safe in a caring environment.
“Mel did a great job caring for Ellie. He communicated with me the entire time she was there. I felt very comfortable leaving her with him for the first time. We will definitely be boarding her again with him.”
“Ness took loving care of my baby while I was out of town. I really like her home setup with a backyard play area with grass and very tall fences. She's also fine with the dogs on the bed which is what my dog prefers. The neighborhood is also quiet, and, bonus, she's on the way to the airport.”
About: I absolutely love animals, especially dogs and cats, and have dedicated 17 years to caring for them. My experience includes working at various pet hotels, where I provided loving, attentive care. Animals bring me joy, and I’m passionate about ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for every day. My pup that I had for 16 years passed in March 2024 and I can’t find the heart to get another pet of my own, but I would love to help others take care of theirs. I work from home and I’m very flexible. I also have reliable transportation, it is also a large vehicle so I am able to transport large dogs/pet equipment I have a very large property that is fully enclosed and double gated… The front gate facing the street is an iron 6 foot gate.
“Jess and her family took great care of Louie. I had no worries about him while I was away. Loved the photo updates and he seemed to get along really well with Mookie. Thank you so much for your care and attention to my dog.”
“Joyce was wonderful! She sent photo and video updates daily, informed of any observed issues, asked questions for anything I did not detail, and gave Tofu a lovely time away from home. Very grateful for her service, will absolutely book in the future!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sabrina watched our two dogs for one week and we had a wonderful experience. Communication was excellent from the very beginning, and her home was welcoming and well suited for pets. Our dogs were comfortable right away during the meet and greet and showed no hesitation on drop off day. We received regular updates and adorable photos throughout our trip, which gave us great peace of mind. Pick up was easy, with our dogs ready to go and all of their belongings packed and organized. We were able to fully enjoy our time away knowing our dogs were in excellent hands. I would absolutely book with Sabrina again. Thank you so much!”
“She was super polite, took great care of my dog, kept me updated twice a day. Her response was quickly and smoothly everytime. I'm really thanksful and love to ask for her help again next time.”

We look forward to booking with you again in the future! -Nancy & Rudy
I am are so lucky to have found [Debra and Wills] to care my dogs ( KIKO and DULCE)and They were incredibly attentive, reliable, and maintained excellent communication throughout My entire trip. It is so comforting to leave your fur baby with someone who is both responsible and deeply caring. Highly recommend!"
Janet was truly the most amazing dog sitter I could have asked for! As someone new to Rover, I searched everywhere for the perfect match and instantly felt she was “the one” for our Tonka after seeing pictures of her with her own dog who looked just like my Tonka! After messaging back and forth and setting up a meet and greet, I knew we had found the right fit. While we were away in Catalina for the weekend, Janet kept us updated with so many pictures and videos of Tonka being showered with love by her and her family. At one point, I joked that he might not even want to come home! When we arrived to pick him up, Janet went above and beyond…she had made the sweetest card with Tonka’s picture and a paw print on the back, and even sent him home with treats from a local bakery. To say I’m appreciative would be an understatement. I’m so grateful to have found someone who genuinely cares for dogs and treats them like family. Thank you so much, Janet! You’re the best!!
Joonshik took absolutely amazing care of my dog Robin while I was away for a flight, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the start, he was incredibly kind, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. He sent regular photo updates that gave me so much peace of mind and made it easy to see that Robin was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My dog is very attached to me, and I truly consider her one of my kids, and knowing she was in such wonderful hands made all the difference. Joonshik went above and beyond to make sure she felt safe and loved, and that meant everything to me. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring pet care. I will definitely be booking with him again in the future!
Eden was amazing with my dog Noori! She took such great care of her while I was away and kept me updated with photos and messages every day. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Noori was happy and comfortable in her home. You can really tell Eden loves animals and treats them like her own. I’d definitely book with her again! 🐾💖

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Whittier on Rover is $44.4 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 10,237 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Whittier. 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 Whittier 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 Whittier 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 Whittier 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 Whittier.
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 Whittier 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.
