“Melissa is quite possibly the sweetest person I’ve ever met. She is so kind and sent regular updates on my pup, and kept him happy and well cared for. Will definitely be a repeat booker.”

“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: 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 very active and love to walk, so your dog will get plenty of exercise and outdoor time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick to their usual routines—like feeding times, walks, and play—and always make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions to keep your pet happy and stress-free while you’re away.
“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 !”


About: “I’ve had and loved dogs since I was a boy and I treat every pet in my care like family—with patience, attention, and affection.” “Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I build time each morning and evening for walks, feeding, and play, and I stay very flexible.” “In my home or a client’s home, I treat pets with the same care, respect, and attention—keeping routines consistent, spaces safe, and always prioritizing their comfort.”
“After our meet and greet with Emily and Mowgli we felt good about leaving Luna with them for an overnight stay. The stay went perfectly. Luna was well cared for and we felt comfortable that Luna was in good hands! Have already rebooked for another stay.”


About: I've taken care of animals my whole life! Now that I have pets of my own, I know how hard it is to get someone trust worthy to watch them, so I am here to help! I am young and very active so your animals will be very entertained. I work remotely so I am home all day everyday so you never have to worry about them being alone. I am also very diligent with training so I can help there as well. I work remotely so I am home all the time. I can easily continue whatever routine they are on, or bring them on mine! They will be watched all day all night, weekdays and weekends. I live in a two-story home with two empty bedrooms, so they have plenty of room to roam. I also have a fenced-in backyard and live three houses down from a large park. There's a hike in my community that I love to go on and I am a regular at the dog beach. I also have an 11 month old pup so your dog will have a friend! I can absolutely continue whatever routine they have, and crate them or give them their own room at night if that is preferred.
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.
“I rarely board my dog and was a little nervous about trusting someone to keep him. Whitley was great with him. Communicated well and was very flexible with my vacation schedule. Thank you so much!!!”


“Carol was great! She has a large property for the dogs to run and explore. My dog was small but he loved the openness of the property. Her communication was excellent. She is a gem.”

“Jenna was amazing. She sent multiple pictures of my dog Blue every day. This was our first time using Rover and Jenna was perfect! Blue had such a great time with her and she was a life saver for being able to watch him over Christmas and New Years. Will be booking again with Jenna if the need arises. :)”

“Lizz was great with my Bella. She sent updates and pictures; all the things that I loved and made me feel even more secure knowing that my pup was well taken care of, while I was away for a work trip. I recommend her anytime!”

About: I’m a bedroom DJ and Manny who loves spending time with pets. I also bring pets back to their owners with new skills depending and have experience for watching and caring for in general. I am currently working a Manny position for a family waiting for kids from 2-6pm. I typically take pets with me to walk them throughout waiting for child pick up. Walking for at least 2-3 hours within that time. I live in a fenced apartment in Santa Monica, close to the beach that I love taking pups too. CLEAN environment to prevent illness and disasters from happening.
About: I have grown up with dogs. The past 10+ years I have cared for other peoples dogs. I understand how uneasy people feel about leaving their pooch in a Kennel, simply because their dog is their world and they would rather have their dog have home comforts whilst you are apart. Married but we have no children so am able to offer a calm environment for those dogs that are mature or nervous of bangs and loud noises. Likewise I have the time and energy for those dogs that need a little more play time. I have a neutered schnoodle that is mature enough to chill but also enjoys a play. I work part time from home. So I am able to offer your pooch a lot of time and love, be it walks or just company. I have an enclosed, secure garden, mainly walled with gated access which is locked. It is completely private. It is not a large garden, but it certainly offers a dog enough space to stretch their legs, chase a ball or just chill on the patio.
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.
About: I have had pets since I was a little girl starting with cats that lived into their 20s and a childhood dog that was my very best friend for over half my life that died at age 14. He was a great dog with lots of energy. I have enjoyed my own pets and other people's pets over the years. I am extremely kind hearted and love all animals and believe they deserve the best life possible! I would love to pet sit any time I am available which is pretty open at the current time. Please Just give me a call or text or email and I will let you know right away if I am available to walk, pet sit, play with, or whatever else you need or want me to do with your little furry one. I love animals and take amazing care of them. I am pretty flexible at the moment except for driving the family around and some part time work. Other than that I can devote my time to caring for your baby. I have a big fenced yard with lots of space and and nice big house too :) I am open for all kinds of pet sitting walks daycare drop ins etc.
“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.”

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.
