“We had such a great experience with Liliana! She took wonderful care of Zoey and was very consistent with updates. I really appreciated the photos and messages. Zoey looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Susana is simply the best. She is so communicative, always sends us plenty of photos, and is flexible with us if we need to shift drop off or pickup times. We've never had a better boarding experience. She is extremely trustworthy and the dogs always seem like they've had a great time when we pick them up.”
“Luka thoroughly enjoyed his stay with Melissa and her well behaved puppies. She sent us photos and videos every day without asking and kept us updated on all the fun he had. We will definitely be using her services again in the future”
“Monica took really good care of my fur baby for 12 days. She is very good at communicating and sent me pictures throughout my trip. I was at peace and was able to enjoy my vacation worry free. Myles seemed to really enjoy himself and had lots of play time. I would definitely recommend Monica she is definitely the sitter. Myles will definitely be back !”
“This was first time in 20 years of having dogs that we boarded and couldn’t have been happier and confident to have found Carole through Rover. We went on a 7 day road trip and never worried or had doubts about leaving our German Shepard, Luna, with Carole. We pre-visited her ranch a few weeks prior and had a feeling and no hesitation after the visit that we had made the right choice. Though this was our first time boarding, and with Carole, we now can plan other extended trips and know we have a great place to bring Luna without worry or feeling guilty for leaving her.”
“We found an excellent pet sitter in Josian who took great care of Peewee, our furry baby, for two days. As this was our first time using Rover, we wanted to have the peace of mind and confidence that Peewee would be in a pleasant and conducive environment while we were away. We arranged for a meet and greet with Josian at his house. Josian was friendly, welcoming and had a calm demeanor. We were impressed by the safe layout of his front yard and back yard and the cleanliness of his home. Peewee seemed to settle in, felt at home and took an instant liking to Josian and his small doggie. Josian kept us updated and provided pictures of Peewee during his stay. Needless to say, everything went well so Josian will now be our go-to person for Peewee's boarding needs.”
“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.”
“Lisa was absolutely amazing with our puppy. She’s incredibly sweet, patient, and genuinely caring—you can tell she really loves what she does. She kept us updated with photos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind, and she was always super quick to respond whenever we missed him and wanted a check-in. It made the whole experience stress-free and honestly enjoyable. We’ll 100% be booking with her again!”
“A great experience that was easy, flexible, worry and stress-free. Amon and Adam work from home and adore doggies and treat them as their own. Our pup had loads of human and happy pup interaction. Plus, sunshine, backyard sniffing and neighborhood walks outside. Inside filled with cozy beds and fuzzy blankets. Looking forward to Phoebe’s next stay.”
“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.”
“Ilona was very calm and sweet at drop off. She took really good care of Choo Choo. She got him to eat which is quite a chore. She sent me pictures during his stay. I will definitely use her again.”
“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.”
“Janice was the best! She was so great witn Bear and gave so many updates and videos. It so reassuring to have someone like her and her family care for your pet.”
“Henry was happy at Jane's resident. He got along well with her, her dog and family. Her husband gave Henry special attention at night because Henry did not want to be in a separate room at night so he slept in same room as Henry. Jane has a yard that Henry enjoyed with her dog. Jane and her husband were sweet and we did a meet and greet before drop off. Jane was able to take care of Henry's special diet restrictions. I would use Jane again:)”
“We had a two trips in Dec and left Jax with Skylar. It seems that Jax had a fantastic time with her. Skylar is an excellent communicator; she not only sent us daily photos and of Jax but also kept us updated on how he was doing. I am very pleased with her and will definitely work with her again in the future.”

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.
