He gives you constant updates and is very honest with everything, roxy has found a home away from home. Thank you Anton!”
“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 !”
“Dipankar and Nagma have been wonderful! They consistently keep me updated with messages and pictures. I can trust that my dog is in good hands. I’m also glad that their dog gets along so good with mine and they end up playing together all day. I would recommend them for all services.”
“Anu did an awesome job watching our two puppies for a week while on vacation. She was great at communicating and sending us pictures to keep us posted on the fur babies. Highly recommend!”
“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!”

It really put my mind at ease during my pups stay! She sent pictures and an update every day and it was so nice to feel engaged while he was gone. I definitely recommend Deana and will definitely book with her in the future!”
“For my first time using Rover. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter for my dog. Punam was amazing. She made boarding very easy. Extremely responsive to my questions and provided daily pictures and video updates throughout the stay. My dog had a great time and made friends with her dog Kaaji. I would happily rebook with Punam.”
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have two dogs and four cats, and I truly treat them like my children. I’m patient, attentive, and take pride in understanding each pet’s unique personality, needs, and routines. I love talking to my animals, spending time with them, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority.
“5 Paws! Ruth was absolutely wonderful! She took excellent care of my two dogs, Bear (my 8-year-old Morkie) and Ginger (my 14-year-old Cockapoo). They both have special needs, and Ruth was incredibly attentive, patient, and caring with each of them. She took them on long walks, kept me updated with photos, and every single picture showed two happy, smiling pups who were clearly enjoying themselves and felt completely at ease. That gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Ruth to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“This was my dog’s first time in a new home, and Marilu made me feel completely at ease. She took so much time and care to make sure my dog felt welcomed and comfortable. I truly appreciated the daily updates and photos—seeing my dog so happy and relaxed meant the world to me. Marilu has such a kind and loving soul, and her two dogs are some of the friendliest I've ever met. She did an amazing job, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible sitter. She's awesome!”
“Tracey took amazing care of my pup! Tracey is extremely friendly and responsive and well experienced in dog care. Kirby was full of energy and happiness when I picked him up, which shows he had an amazing time at Tracey’s. I highly recommend booking with Tracey if you need boarding for your pup!”

I had such an amazing experience booking with Deana. It was my first time booking with Rover and she was so understanding and kind! She is very knowledgeable and truly wanted to get to know my pup. It really put my mind at ease during my pups stay! She sent pictures and an update every day and it was so nice to feel engaged while he was gone. I definitely recommend Deana and will definitely book with her in the future!
Punam and family have boarded Nico a few times and each time I’m able to relax knowing he’s in good hands. They provide regular updates, including pictures and videos, throughout the stay and treat Nico like he’s one of the family. I will continue to board with Punam for as long as they’ll have Nico. 😊
This was our first time boarding our dogs, and we are so grateful for Lauren & Mike. They gave us such peace of mind knowing our dogs were in a safe and caring environment while we were away. Our dogs came home happy and healthy, and we know they received lots of attention and love. We highly recommend them!
Yulan & Gaochuan were incredibly attentive, kind, and treated Maggie like she was their own! Honestly, I feel like we had the very best dog caretakers. They took her on walks, shared lots of photos and videos that kept us updated, and even gave her a bath, which was such a thoughtful surprise. What stood out most was how much they genuinely cared about her. They also have a secure and safe home for pets to stay comfortably. We had complete peace of mind knowing she was in such loving hands. They truly went above and beyond, and we would absolutely trust them with Maggie again. Worth every penny! Highly recommend!
Cheri was wonderful to my Beni. It was his first time staying with someone and Cheri made him feel right at home. She cuddled with him and loved him like her own. She kept me updated on how he was doing which put me at ease being away from him. So happy I found her.
Marc did a great job watching our dog, Kingsley. He was very communicative throughout the stay, sent us regular updates and great pictures, and clearly took excellent care of our boy. Kingsley seemed happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we returned. We really appreciated the peace of mind Marc provided while we were away. We would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
Dipankar and Nagma have been wonderful! They consistently keep me updated with messages and pictures. I can trust that my dog is in good hands. I’m also glad that their dog gets along so good with mine and they end up playing together all day. I would recommend them for all services.
Natalie was absolutely wonderful with Audie! From the meet & greet through drop-off, her communication was top-notch: she sent regular photo and video updates that made it so easy to relax and enjoy our trip knowing he was in great hands. Audie has separation anxiety, but settled in quickly and didn’t howl, which says a lot about how comfortable she made him feel. She handled his dinner meds and evening supplements without missing a beat, and clearly gave him plenty of playtime and attention in her backyard. When our flights got us home very late, Natalie generously offered to keep him one more night rather than do a late drop-off, which was such a thoughtful call and exactly the kind of judgment you want from someone caring for your dog. He came home happy, well-loved, and clearly had a great time. We’d book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Natalie!
Joel was great! He was very flexible with regard to drop off and pick up times. When we took the dogs over to meet Joel, the dogs took to him immediately. Joel continuously kept us updated on how the dogs were doing and sent us pictures! We appreciate the care he provided for our dogs. I would definitely have our dogs stay with him again 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 Arbor 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 Arbor.
<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 Arbor 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.
