“Derek and Leslie clearly love dogs and were patient with Ruby, who was a bit overwhelmed and grouchy when the other dogs approached her. Derek stayed in the backyard with Ruby and played on the pool with her, which is her favorite. Would definitely recommend for your more social dogs.”
“We dropped off our dog at Deborah's house for dog sitting. Our dog really likes Deborah. She is kind and patient and you can tell she really likes animals. We were updated regularly on how our dog was doing with messages and pictures. It made us feel like she was in good hands. We will definitely book Deborah for more sitting soon!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Epic Doggie Adventure with Tammie – A Five-Star Tale of Tail-Wagging Joy In a world where trustworthy dog sitters are as rare as a unicorn at a dog park, one woman stands above the rest. Her name… is Tammie. Her mission… to turn ordinary dog-sitting into extraordinary canine adventures. And lucky for us, my sweet Sugar got to be the star. Sugar—my spunky, snow-white cockapoo with the heart of a lioness—was welcomed into Tammie’s home like royalty. Not only did she find a second family, she found a whole pack. Tammie's four dogs became her instant crew. The kind of squad you’d want backing you up on a Pixar-style rescue mission. But this isn’t just about tail wags and playtime. It’s about love. Tammie didn’t just watch Sugar—she cared for her. She cleaned Sugar’s eyes gently with a warm cloth while petting her. She let her hang out with her sweet kids. She gave me a full “report card” so detailed, it felt like a scene straight out of a Wes Anderson film: 6 pees. 1 poop. 8 water breaks. That’s dedication. That’s data. That’s love. Tammie gets what it means to be a dog parent. She lives it—traveling with her own four pups, creating a home that feels more like a dog-friendly dreamscape than just another house. She’s not just a sitter. She’s a director of happiness, orchestrating a beautiful symphony of barks, belly rubs, and tail wags. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, craft their stay into a heartwarming mini-movie, and send them home with a sparkle in their eyes… look no further. Sugar can’t wait for the sequel. 🐾”
“Thank you for taking care of Kilo! Darlene kept me posted with pictures of Kilo living his best life with friends! I felt comfortable leaving Kilo in Darlene’s care. I will definitely book Darelene to take care of Kilo, again!”
“Highly recommend. Nanci IS the 'dog whisperer'. She was able to sense all of my dog's needs (good and bad), and made her stay comfortable, enjoyable and safe. My dog suffers from separation anxiety, and Nancy took extra care to give her plenty of lap time. I received lots of great updates, photos and videos. Can't get enough of those, and Nanci has a wonderful photographer's eye. Can you really tell that Nanci has years and years of experience, which helped this anxious mom to feel confident. And the icing? Nanci (and her whole human and furry pack) are super friendly and nice to be around.”
“Johnna took such great care of Luna. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. We received pictures and updates that kept us feeling confident in her care. Thank you Johnna!”
“My puppy was one of the pack by the end of the day, after playing with the chihuahua, and napping with the boxers. What a great day of camp while Inwas at work! Thank you, Julie and Sherry!”
About: I've had pet dogs my entire life, but as an adult I've personally adopted 2 dogs and a cat of my own. I have cared for pets at every stage of their life. I'm a freelance digital artist so my availability is open. I don't do artwork outside of my home, however. If I'm working for you that has my full attention. In my home I have a pool. My pug can swim but I'm still always outside when she is. Im very attentive when I take on responsibilities. My house is spacious and we are open to crating. Our pets sleep inside with us.
“We had a fantastic experience with Alexis and her family. Bonnie loved spending the day playing with the kids and other dogs. Communication with Alexis was also great - we’d happily book again!”
“We were visiting Folsom for a birthday party and left our Pomeranian with Shannon for about 4 hours so we wouldn't have to worry about Belle getting fed by the kids and all. It was so nice to be able to relax while Belle hung out with Shannon and some other dogs! All went well and we got a few videos of Belle! Shannon was very good at communicating with us.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Leslie. She is the perfect dog sitter. Leslie was so kind and patient with my very sweet but somewhat timid little maltipoo. She has her home set up perfectly for dog care and is very flexible in meeting the needs of the dogs she watches. Her back yard is lovely and very secure. I highly recommend her.”
“I’m always nervous about leaving my pups with someone other than myself, but with everything that Daria did today I am beyond pleased with the service. Daria provided lots of play time for my pups & even brought out a little wading pool for them! They had an absolute blast! Thank you Daria for taking such good care of my pups!!”
“Michael & Patricia were amazing! Honey was a last minute daycare, they were so loving. You can tell they love to give to dogs they provide services for. I will be taking Honey back just because they are so genuine. They provided me feedback the whole time and photos. Gave me a complete update when I picked her up. Honey will become a regular just so he has wonderful people in her circle. Plus gives me the opportunity to have so me time without any worries.”
“I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with Ann! I had hired her to do a couple walks first so my dog was super comfortable with her. Ann had lots of toys for Rio and also took her on two walks during her day. She also got to chase squirrels in the Anns backyard. It’s so great to have a trustworthy person to watch my dog when I need it. Thanks Ann!”
“My two boys had wonderful time with you and your son, thank you so much!!! Since this was first time in daycare, I was little nervous but now I can see their happy face. Both are sleeping right after got home^^ Thanks again!!!”
“Ingrid watched our sweet Ruby last minute so my husband and I can spend the day together. Ruby returned home so happy and bummed to say bye to her new friends. We hope she’ll watch Ruby again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alder Creek
Gauri was absolutely wonderful with my dog! ❤️ She took such great care of him, gave him a lovely walk, and showered him with so much love and attention. Her two dogs were also incredibly friendly and welcoming, and all three of them had such a great time playing together! 🐶🐶🐶 It was so nice to see him having so much fun and feeling comfortable. I really appreciated how caring and attentive Gauri was, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I would definitely trust her with him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone loving, caring, and responsible with their pets! 💕
I absolutely recommend Derek and Leslie!! They are genuinely caring for the pets they watch! My 12 week old puppy, Maggie, felt right at home in their house. She was closely attended to, was safe and had lots of fun playing in their wonderful backyard. Several times through Maggie’s stay, they texted photos of Maggie running, playing, napping. Derek and Leslie are outstanding dog-sitters!
Stephanie is so good with dogs! I trust her 100% with our dog, it’s so nice to know that my dog is happy and safe when we are unable to watch her. Our dog comes home every time super tired from playing and having a fun day. We look forward to continue having Stephanie watch our dog.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Alder Creek commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,365 sitters in Alder Creek, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
