About: I treat every pet like family, providing safe walks, fun playtime, lots of affection, and personalized care. I genuinely love dogs of all sizes and enjoy earning their trust.🫶🏻🤍 Every boarding stay includes a morning and evening walk, plus lots of love and care! ❤️ I’m dedicated to pet care full-time and have completely open availability, allowing me to easily adapt to your pet’s daily routine and give them plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day 🐶🐱🫶🏻🤍 I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. In my home, I have both small and large crates available if needed, along with plenty of space for play, rest, and affection. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and any special instructions to help pets feel comfortable and secure while their families are away.
“SO great! Karah is amazing with my super high energy lab puppy. So considerate and made sure to follow his schedule. He came home so happy and slept so well. We will be back, highly recommend!”
“Sylvia is the best!! Her home is a doggy dream with lots of comfy outdoor and covered space. Two lovely dogs that get along with mine great and I always get lots of updates about how everyone is doing together. My dog comes home happy and tired every week! Thank you ☺️☺️”
“Kiyomi was amazing with our dog. She took him for many walks, accommodated his medication schedule, played with him, fed him, and took really good care of our pup. I am so grateful we were able to find her and we will continue to use her dog sitting services! She also took so many cute pictures and it seemed like they had a wonderful day together.”
About: Hi! My name is Kenji and I have an adorable 6 year old dashschund named Winston. I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and spending time with pets is something that genuinely brings me joy. Over the past 10 years, I've become the go-to dog sitter for my friends and family because they know I'll care for their pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I would my own. I've looked after dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies who love to explore to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also have experience caring for reactive dogs and understand the importance of staying calm, recognizing their triggers, respecting their boundaries, and following their routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. Whether we're going for a walk, playing fetch, sticking to their daily routine, or just relaxing together, my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I'll always follow your care instructions, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a wagging tail, earning a shy dog's trust, or knowing an owner can travel with complete peace of mind. I treat every pet like family, and I'd love the opportunity to care for yours. I work remotely with a flexible schedule and have minimal meetings throughout the day, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m typically available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and keeping pets company. I enjoy building pet care into my daily routine, whether that means taking a dog out for a walk, providing enrichment and play, following their normal schedule, or simply spending quality time with them. Since I’m home most of the day, I’m able to be attentive to pets’ needs and provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away. My flexible schedule also allows me to be consistent and dependable with each pet’s routine, which I know is especially important for dogs who thrive on structure and familiarity. For drop-in visits and walks, I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own environment. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I take the time to follow each owner's instructions closely and provide care that fits their normal schedule. During walks, I prioritize safety while making sure dogs get the exercise, enrichment, and attention they need. I’m comfortable adjusting the pace and style of walks based on each dog's energy level, age, and temperament, including being patient with dogs who may be nervous or reactive. For drop-in visits, I provide more than just the basics—I’ll make sure pets have fresh water, meals if needed, bathroom breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I’m also happy to send regular photo updates so owners can feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain their pet’s routine, and make sure both the pet and home are left safe and comfortable.
“Our pup had the best time with Amanda, he was happy when we dropped him off and happy when we picked him up the next day. Amanda was communicative, flexible, and friendly. We will be using her again!!”
“My dog took to Frances immediately. Once I handed the leash over, Wednesday didn't even look back lol. Frances sent update pictures and I could tell Wednesday was really, really happy. I feel so much better knowing there is someone I can trust that is close by to take care of my pet. Thank you Frances! You’re awesome!”
About: I love animals and being around them is a true pleasure and privilege. I can't wait to meet your babies and take care of them! I live next to Ascot hills with lovely hiking trails and I especially enjoy taking dogs and friends there just before sunset to enjoy the trees and breeze. Hydration is very important to me (particularly in the summer heat) and I have a yard with trees for shade and potty breaks every hour.
“Due to a long vacation, we must find a dog sitter for our maltipoo puppy. Our dog has never been away from us so it is not easy for him. Thank Marc for being so patient and kind to Sparky. After his 3rd visit, Sparky felt more relaxed and comfortable to stay with Marc and play with him. He also followed Marc back into his house. We are glad to see our puppy finding a "second home" in Marc's place while we are away.”
“Albert and Catherine were absolutely outstanding !! We truly can’t thank them enough for all of their kindness and amazing care for our dog Zene! They kept us updated with pictures and an absolutely incredible report card at the end of her stay! It was the nicest touch! Zene had so much fun and we are beyond grateful for their amazing care!! Thank you times a million!”
About: My husband and I had 4 dogs and many cats for over 15 years. Our baby Pomeranian was fifteen and passed away 2 months ago. I also rescue cats. I am home most of the time and can give your fur baby the attention they need. My time is very free. Weekday and weekends are ok for or me to take care of pets. Just let me know a couple hours beforehand. I live in a one level condo. I will take care of the pets at my house. We can take a walk in our pretty community. That's what I can provide.
“Woody had such an amazing time! I was happy to leave him alone with such an amazing couple. He was taken to the park, and I got photos throughout the day. I would definitely use them again in the future!”
About: Hi there! I have long loved being a dog mom and thought to start sitting to give myself and my own dog some extra company and fun times. I can usually take up to two additional dogs to my own. If I am able to sit for your dog, I will be working from home. However, I am not available everyday. This is why I recommend planning in advance for my availability. I have a single family home with a fenced in dog run and patio for them to play in. They are free to be in the house and not be restricted in movements. However, I do not let pets on the furniture or beds. However doggy beds are available.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for 8 years and grew up with dogs my whole life. I understand how important it is to find someone who will treat your dog with the same care, attention, and patience you would. Whether it’s a walk around the block or extra time for sniff breaks, I always make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I do freelance work from home so I have a flexible schedule Monday-Sunday. I’m able to care for your pet based on their needs and walking/feeding schedule. I have a fenced yard and a 9 yr old, medium dog (28lbs cocker Spanish mix) named Mia who’s very mellow. Your dog’s well-being is my priority. While you’re away, I create a calm, familiar environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I follow their routine closely, pay attention to what makes them feel comfortable, and ensure they stay happy and secure until you return. You can feel confident knowing your dog is receiving thoughtful, reliable care every step of the way.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alhambra
Cara is a wonderful sitter ! This is our 2nd time leaving Bruce with her for daycare. She kept sending me videos of Bruce throughput the day which I truly appreciate. And when we picked him up she gave us a thorough recap of his day and his behavior.
Thank you for taking good care of Finn, I really love All the pictures and updates you send me through his time with you. I highly recommend Laura if anyone is looking for a dog sitter. I interviewed about 12 people and she made me feel at peace . Definitely using her again my up coming vacation in December.
Steven is literally the best. He’s so friendly and communicative, my dog Elliot already recognizes him and knows he’s is a safe presence! I always send my dog walked and fed and tell Steven all he needs to do is chill with him and keep him company but Steven goes above and beyond when he totally doesn’t have to. I am so appreciative of him and he makes me and my husband feel at ease as dog parents. We are so lucky to have such a responsible dog sitter just minutes from us!
Joy was absolutely great with Leia, and Leia loved her! Joy was very mindful of keeping Leia cool and comfortable during the recent heat wave, which I really appreciated. She provided regular updates throughout the day, giving me total peace of mind. I highly recommend Joy for any future daycare needs!
Can we say concierge level service? Sylvia is just that. The way she took care of my fur baby was exceptional and I can tell she enjoyed her visit. Not to mention, the oasis she calls her home is just gorgeous! Thank you so much! We are so lucky to have found you.
Great experience. She was easy to communicate with, sent updates throughout the day, and took great care of Winston. He came home happy, clean, and tired from a fun day. I’d definitely book with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.
Madison was a life safer after my sweet Hazel’s spay surgery. I was required to go to work on short notice the day after her surgery so not only was my pup not feeling great but she had never been left with anyone else or spent her day at an unfamiliar place. I was anxious about leaving her because she can be a pretty shy and nervous girl to begin with and she had already had a pretty traumatic day so as a dog mom, I was pretty worried how all that stress may show up in someone else’s home. Madison was very patient at drop off and aloud Hazel the time and space needed to be shy but curious and approached her gently. She sent immediate communication after I left to let me know how she was settling in and continued to provide pictures and updates throughout the day which was very appreciated and put my mind at ease. I felt confident Hazel was safe and being cared for just as well as she would be at home. Definitely keeping Madison in mind for any dog or cat sitting needs going forward.
Alvin was great! I appreciate that he accommodated me at the last minute and gave great tips and advice for my puppy who got along great with him. He sent several pics throughout the day. I will definitely be reaching out to Alvin again when I need a sitter or for overnight stays. I highly recommend him!
Javey took excellent care of Penny. I could tell she had a very active day with his big dogs Panko and Boba because she slept hard when she got home. They are gentle giants, don’t let their size concern you. They are well behaved and so sweet. Javey kept in constant contact throughout the stay with photos and texts, so I knew she was fine the whole time.

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.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
