“Our dog Luka had a wonderful time with Melissa and Sebastian. They kept us informed daily with videos and pictures of Luka with the other dogs. It was great first time exposure to multiple dogs for him. We felt comfortable leaving him for 6 days.”

“Lauren is great! She is super friendly and was very attentive with our 2 dogs. You can tell she truly enjoys pets and she checked in with us as requested. The dogs were happy (and surprisingly clean) when we came to pick them up. There’s plenty of room for the dogs to run around out back and I feel like Lauren gave them the same amount of love we would. Highly recommend!”

About: As a dedicated pet caregiver with over five years of personal experience, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of varying breeds, including German Shepherds and terriers. My approach centers on providing loving, gentle care that ensures your dog feels right at home. I understand the importance of maintaining your dog’s existing routine, which is why I offer a structured schedule tailored specifically to your needs. From regular exercise to grooming services, I aim to make your dog’s experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I truly value the companionship that dogs offer, and I’m committed to giving them the attention and care they deserve. As an online college student, I have the flexibility to offer open availability for pet care. My schedule allows me to accommodate a variety of needs, whether it’s for regular check-ins, extended stays, or last-minute requests. I’m able to adjust my time to suit your dog’s routine and ensure they receive consistent care whenever needed. My home is a cozy and welcoming space for your dog to feel completely comfortable. Both my living room and bedroom are open to them, and they’re free to relax on the furniture, including my bed. I live in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for peaceful walks, and I’m just a short stroll away from a lovely park where your dog can enjoy plenty of fresh air and exercise.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and recently raised and trained my own dog from puppyhood, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. I work from home, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and of course lots of cuddles! I genuinely love being around dogs and spending time outdoors, whether that’s going for a walk, a hike, or just hanging out together. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. ☺️ I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can give your pet lots of attention throughout the day.

I’m happy to follow any specific instructions to keep your pet happy and stress-free while you’re away.
“Chloe's stay with Heather was refreshing. She sent me pictures and a video almost on a daily basis to show me how well Chloe was adjusting with me being away. I will definitely use Heather 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.”

About: My love for pets started when my grandparents adopted a Pomeranian when I was a child. Back at home my family and I have a husky name Shadow (10) who loves howling at every siren he hears. I have done pet sitting around LA and Korea. My main responsibility was ensuring the pets kept to their routine, got their daily exercise, and were comfortable. I will always do my best to make sure they are continuously cared for. Also be prepared for daily photo updates so you never miss a moment! I do architecture and work remotely. I am typically flexible with my schedule. I will be able to provide as much attention to your fur babies as I can. I follow all established feeding, exercise, and medication routines while ensuring the home remains secure and well-maintained. I also send daily updates and photos so owners have complete peace of mind while away.
“Jenna was an amazing sitter for my husky Luna and provided frequent pictures and updates while I was out of town. Jenna was very accommodating and I highly recommend her if you are searching for someone to watch your pets.”

“Laura is lovely and Candy had a great weekend with her. I will absolutely reach out to her in the event I need a pet sitter for my furry therapist, keeper of my secrets and love of my life.”

About: Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m an avid lifelong dog lover who works from home full time. Our home features a spacious, secure fully fenced backyard where dogs can run freely. I have extensive experience caring for happy pups of all life stages, from high-energy puppies who need consistent potty training to seniors who require gentle care and medication management. My husband and I have a lively, dog-loving home with two friendly pups and a toddler under two. Because of this, we only accept guest dogs who are known to be comfortable and gentle around young children. We also proudly offer long-term boarding for military deployments and extended work travel. We are familiar with the military lifestyle and offer flexible boarding for both short-term TDYs and long-term deployments. Having two dogs of our own, we provide a stable 'pack' environment where your pup becomes a temporary member of our family for as long as you're away. Whether for a weekend or six months, your dog will receive close supervision, daily play, and all the love they deserve! I'm currently working from home so I'm very active and available to the dogs when they need me. They typically like to nap in the office or sunbathe outside while I'm working, and during my breaks we often play in the backyard or go for a quick walk. Once I'm off work there's more playtime in the backyard before dinner and bedtime. Our two friendly dogs love making new friends and are great at welcoming guests into our pack. We always offer a quick Meet & Greet in our spacious backyard to ensure everyone’s personality meshes perfectly before the stay. This allows us to see how our dogs and my child interact with your pup before we confirm a stay. For long-term stays (30+ days), I often suggest an extended Meet & Greet to make sure your pup feels fully comfortable before your departure.
About: I was an intern at a K9 training facility. I worked with service dogs, personal protection dogs, and would board and train house dogs who needed behavioral corrections. I am currently a volunteer at a local animal shelter. I personally volunteer to give the animals some outside time. It is nice to see the animals enjoy playing and going on walks. It is a nice break to them when volunteers go in. I’m currently working a full time job. My schedule is the same each week, 7am - 4pm Monday - Friday. My weekends I am free, but I do get a lot of time off since I work at a school so I’m fully available during occasions like Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break, Spring Break, and Summer. But I am able to work around your schedule as fits to care for your furry family. My safety requirements always consist of a dog being leashed while outside, but secure inside the home to ensure there is no danger. I want to keep each animal safe and I will follow any safety protocols you may have.

“Denelle and Fred were so great with our dogs! Our dogs loved them and their two little dogs. We felt so comfortable on vacation because we knew our dogs were in good hands. I would definitely recommend them to anyone and would personally have them as a dog sitter again.”

“Adam was very focused on helping our dogs feel comfortable during their stay. He kept us updated a few times a day and clearly communicated how things were going. He is very professional while also showing genuine care and concern for the dogs in his care. Our dogs did not seem anxious or out-of-sorts when we picked them up, and seemed to have enjoyed their stay. We will definitely request Adam's services in the future.”

“There were two reasons I chose Thea to board my two Beagles for 8 days: 1) She has a wonderful ranch, with dogs and several other different animals which are dog-friendly, which would allow my Beagles to do what they love--sniff around here, there, and everywhere--under supervision, and 2) Her rate was very reasonable. This was my first time boarding my Beagles with a 'stranger.' Would I do it again? Absolutely, and without hesitation! Thea, and her crew are ultra-accommodating to your pets individual needs. Thea's individual-styled boarding beats kennel-style boarding any day of the week.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Ansel home-away-from-home, 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 Ansel.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Ansel 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 , 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 .
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.
