“Carole was a blessing to find. She watched our dog for an entire week with no issues and every few days she communicated with us by sending us a pic of our furry baby. She has a beautiful outdoor area for dog sitting and has lots of knowledge with dogs. We ended up not having enough food for our dog and she went out and bought a bag for him and we reimbursed her via Zell. She also gave us really good tips on how to train our puppy. My family recommends her and we'll definitely use her again.”
“I immediately felt so comfortable when I walked into their house, I knew my pup would be safe there. They even made her a little blanket fort because they noticed she's skittish and likes being underneath things. So sweet!”
“Really lovely person, so great with dogs. I really appreciated the updates and how my pup got on. My pup really seemed to enjoy herself and sulked a bit when we got home. Just showed how much of a great time she had. Definitely recommend.”
“Emily and Brooks treated our dog like part of their family. They opened their home for a meet and greet prior to our trip. He loved playing with their dog. I also appreciated that they only take one dog at a time for extended care.”
“Cynthia took good care of Pop and Sweetie. I am so grateful for the text messages and pictures sent while they were in her care. I was able to relax without worrying about my furbabies. Cynthia is the best and my first experience leaving my babies overnight was awesome. Thank you Cynthia 😊”
“My experience with Nadia watching my dog was wonderful! Jade seemed so happy and comfortable there, and I could tell she really enjoyed her stay. She even made a new friend with Nadia’s dog 🐶❤️ I truly appreciate the care and attention Nadia gave her. I will definitely be using Nadia again in the future.”
“Elizabeth was kind and professional. She kept us updated on Akira's progress during the three days she had her via pictures and text messages. She provided a loving family environment for Akira.”
“Thankfully, Miranda helped us out last minute with taking care of our pup. She responded quickly and gave us updates and pics while we were out of town. Sasha had a good time making new friends! 😍”
“Anastasiya was a great sitter for Bobby and Zeus. She was very flexible in terms of pick up and drop times, and was very communicative throughout the entire process and stay. I highly recommend!”
“Nicole and her family were wonderful! Our pup stayed with them for over a week. This was the first time he stayed with someone other than family and he had the best time. Nicole was great with communicating with me and I loved that she sent me daily photo updates. Would definitely book with her again in the future!”
“My furry babies were well cared for. This was the first time I left my babies for more than a day and Chengcheng gave me peace of mind by sending periodic photos to let me know they were doing good and happy. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Melissa and her husband were very sweet and knowledgeable about dogs. My dog doesn’t always get along with other dogs but they introduced her to their dogs and she did great! They sent me many videos and pictures to keep me updated. Hershey loves to swim and really enjoyed the pool! Highly recommend Melissa, we will definitely be repeat customers!”
“Alice and John are genuinely some of the nicest people. They took amazing care of my year old pitbull terrier Lola. During her stay I received photo and video updates everyday of Lola enjoying her stay. I definitely recommend Alice and John, they'll take special care of your pets!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs for 33 years. Including but not limited to walking, feeding, hygiene care and administrating multiple medicines. Familiar with seizures as well. I have pets of my own so tending to animals is a routine to me and my children for a daily routine. We have cats and a small dog. Our cats and dog are mainly inside animals. With my dog going outside to the gated backyard whenever she wants. We also have a gated pool so the animals will remain safe.
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Tiffany & her husband. From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to make sure my fur baby felt safe, loved, and cared for while I was away. Not only did they follow every instruction perfectly, but they also took extra time to give my pup walks, pool-time , and plenty of affection. Thank you again! 🐶 🐾”
“He was great! it was kianu’s first time and I had a little anxiety leaving him over night but assured me he was going to be ok, his dog was so nice to kianu! They got along well!”
“Laura and Brian were amazing caretakers of our dog over a long weekend and saw to it he was well taken care of. We really appreciated all the photos and regular communication as well. Thanks again!”
“Yelda has been amazing with Nami! She’s very caring, reliable, and I always feel at ease knowing Nami is in good hands with her. She takes such great care of her and keeps me updated, which I really appreciate. I would definitely recommend Yelda to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their fur baby! ❤️”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Acton
Carole has a beautiful ranch with large secure areas for dogs to run around instead of being confined. The areas are large enough for multiple dogs to be in there at the same time so if a family has a need to board all of their dogs together, she can accommodate it. We had never left our dog for a long period of time before and Carole was patient with me even when I was being a worried dog mom.

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 Acton 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 Acton 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 Acton 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 Acton.
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 Acton 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.
