“David and Monisa took great care of Koda. I really appreciated the loving home environment they provided him. I would definitely recommend them and I will be using them again to care for Koda.”

“Julie was very kind to Reepicheep and it was clear she wanted her to be comfortable. Caring for a senior cat with multiple medical conditions can be challenging, and I’ve realized that I personally value very detailed communication throughout a stay.”

“We had a last-minute request, and Yu-Shu was kind enough to accept it. They are a very kind, tight-knit family, where it really feels your pup will be geniunely safe. I had some specific requests for my dog, and they followed them to the T. Thank you for being so flexible and considerate. They send regular updates multiple times a day, with photographs, which gives you a sense of comfort knowing how your pup is doing in real time. I would leave my pup with them in a blink, very happy we found this family to take care of our dog when we're away on vacation or work.”

“Susan is a Terrific pet sitter! She kept us updated daily with pictures and highlights. She is an experienced dog lover who we felt very comfortable with watching our aging Frenchie🐶”

“Kirsten, Kristian and her kids are great with our dog! They made her feel right at home, sent updates, played with her, took her for walks and even got spoiled on the couch and bed. We’re very happy we found our go-to dog sitters now.”

“I am so happy to have found Fiona and Yuan for my golden Lexa, who adores them and their kids! I got lots of pictures during her stay showing how much she was loving her life with this amazing family, including their two kids, who sparkled with joy and excitement to have Lexa there. Thank you Fiona and Yuan!”

“Jita and Saji took wonderful care of my dog Penny! She is a little nervous being left at new places but she warmed up quickly and got along great with their sweet dog Thunder. They always sent daily pictures and updates are responded quickly to messages. I am sure Penny would be excited to stay with them again, and I would definitely recommend them to others!”

“Once again, Clara was wonderful with our Jake. We had some concerns because of some health issues our pup was demonstrating before we left but Clara took it all in stride and assured us he would be in good hands. Fortunately, Jake did well in her care and thanks to her no major issues came up during his week stay. Thanks so much, Clara!”

“Zhao and her family took good care of Socrates. I chose them because their house is similar size like mine and my cat prefers bigger space. I was given frequent update of my Socrates with pictures and videos.”

“Thank you for taking such good care of our little Rosie while we were away. We really appreciated the daily updates and pictures and knowing Rosie was in good hands. We’d be happy to have Rosie stay with you again. Thanks again for everything!”

“Cooper was genuinely cared for and very well taken care of by Rachana and her family! We were at peace due to regular and detailed updates about his settling in phase. Being an anxious pup, Cooper needs a considerable amount of patience and love to feel at home and he seemed to feel at ease very soon at Rachana’s place. Their pup is super friendly too and was great company for Cooper during his stay! Thank you for your care and affection towards Cooper!”

“Sujit took care of our 1 year old golden retriever puppy for 9 days during the new year high season travel time. Our experience was good, got daily picture updates, there were other dogs that got boarded and our dog had a good fun play time in his backyard. Recommended !”

“My dog was well cared for with Lili and Matt. I got regular updates on how my dog was doing and he had all his needs met. I would recommend them and plan on returning to ask Lili and Matt to watch my dog again.”

“I am so grateful to have found Xue on Rover! She was incredibly cordial and took such great care of our 5month old puppy while we were on vacation. Xue went above and beyond by sending us daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Hely and her husband Pratik were excellent hosts for our senior dog for 3 nights. They provided daily updates and photos to reassure us that she was comfortable sunbathing in their backyard, strolling at the park, and doing her best impression of a couch potato at home. Hely and Pratik put effort into feeding, walking, and even brushing our dog’s teeth. They boarded another dog at the same time and ensured both pooches were in good company. We will definitely choose to board our dog with Hely and Pratik in the future!”

“Svetlana always takes amazing care of our Luna! We know that Luna loves staying with her and is treated like part of the family. She sends regular updates and has been extremely accommodating with our schedule.”

“Always a pleasure having Keelin watch our two dogs Basil and Mochi. Keelin takes such good care of them and we don’t have to worry while we’re away. We recently had to go out of town for our wedding and this is our dogs 3rd stay with Keelin and they absolutely loved it! Keelin definitely helped take away an additional level of stress during our wedding week with us knowing they were in good hands. Great communication, daily updates with plenty of cute photos. Always highly recommend and our dogs look forward to their next stay in a couple of months with Keelin.”


“Mary was an excellent and responsive sitter. She was super flexible and understanding when I had the change around the drop off/pick up times and my dog loved chilling in her back yard! Thank you for your help, Mary!”

About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats throughout my life. I’m a stay-at-home pet mom with two older, very friendly dogs, and I regularly care for friends’ and neighbors’ pets when they are away. I’m experienced with pets of all ages, especially seniors and pets needing extra care. I can give oral medications, injections, and prepare home-cooked or special meals, and carefully follow your pet’s individual routine. Most importantly, I provide attentive, loving, and reliable care and treat every pet like part of my family. I’m a stay-at-home pet mom, so I’m home most of the day and have plenty of time to care for pets. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine with my own dogs and cat. I walk my dogs twice a day and have a flexible schedule for feeding, playtime, medications, potty breaks, and extra attention. Since I’m home most of the time, your pet will have plenty of companionship, supervision, and loving care throughout the day. I have a spacious 2,400 sq. ft. home with a fully fenced yard. I’m home all day, so pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. There are also two parks within a 5-minute walk from my home, which are great for daily walks and outdoor time. For pets that need their own space, I have a pet playpen and crate available. I can also separate pets when needed for feeding, resting, medications, or comfort. I follow each pet parent’s routine and instructions carefully so their pet feels safe, relaxed, and at home.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
93% of sitters in Altamont can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Altamont 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 Altamont.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Altamont. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Altamont 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
