“We couldn’t be happier with the care Leslie provided for our dog, Siku, over the 9 days we were away. From the very beginning, Leslie was communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease leaving Siku in her care. Throughout our trip, Leslie kept us updated with messages and photos, which meant so much to us. It was clear that Siku was not only well cared for, but also happy and comfortable. When we returned, Siku was relaxed, healthy, and clearly had been given lots of attention and love. Leslie truly went above and beyond, and we are so grateful to have found someone we trust. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and attentive pet sitter—and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“I was very impressed with Jaime and Mike and will definitely be calling them again! My golden retriever was 'Living her best Life" there! She enjoys being around people at all times and was welcomed in the home as one of their own! I love to find other people that love dogs and takes care of them as if they are one of the famiiy! Loved seeing pictures of her fitting right in with her daughter who obviously loves dogs as well! Thank you so much!!”
“Chaoran did an amazing job watching Koa! We definitely will be using her again. She kept us informed and provided a safe place for our boy while we were gone away. Koa had a wonderful time playing with the other dog and we are so glad he had a good time! Thank you, Chaoran !”
“Rachel and her family were great with Rook. She sent daily updates of Rook, his activity level, and all the information we wanted. She kept us constantly informed of Rook's well being, sent pictures, and took him on walks =] I would definitely recommend Rachel and her family to look after your pup!”
“Highly recommend! They took great care of Blue and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Communication was excellent, and it was clear that Blue was well cared for and treated like part of the family. We really appreciated the updates and attention he received. We would definitely book with them again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Blue!”
“Caroline and her husband provided exceptional care for a several weeks long stay . They were extremely attentive to my notes on his medication, behavior, and overall care. Over the years, I've had several good experiences on Rover with Duke, but this was definitely the best. They looked after him like their own pet, and Duke had a happy and healthy stay with them. Can't recommend them enough - they really do their best.”
“Beth is always great with Marvel, she welcomes him into her home like her own. She sends pictures and videos so you know thier okay, even gave him a bath after the rain. she is also very understanding, my plane was delayed and I appreciate that so much because I hate to inconvenience others.”
“I can't thank Jim enough for the incredible care he provided to Daisy. His genuine love for animals and unwavering dedication was evident in every interaction. From ensuring her comfort to keeping me updated with daily photos. I highly recommend Jim to anyone seeking a compassionate and reliable caregiver for their furry friends.”
“Big thank you to Noelle for keeping our puppy this weekend! From the warm greeting, to the beautifully captured pictures and open communication was truly amazing experience. We were very satisfied with her friendly, warm and positive energy! Thank you again!”
“Would definitely recommend Ashley and Todd and planning on booking again. They boarded our Cocker Spaniel Berry. We had an introductory meeting at their home first which really helped and they took the time to get to know Berry’s behaviours and schedule. We were given updates throughout the boarding and the whole family was very welcoming.”
“Ashley (and her husband) is an amazing pet sitter! We chose Ashley because she and her husband have done a great deal with feral cats and in rescuing them so we knew immediately that they are compassionate and caring people. They took great care of our cat and he was also able to spend time with Ashley's dog Nike. We have already booked our next sitting dates!”
“Thank you Julie for taking such great care of my pups. I loved the pictures and videos that you sent. The dogs told me they felt right at home and enjoyed meeting their new pup friends. They especially loved the huge fenced in yard and freedom they felt. They can't wait to come back.”
“I can’t say enough good things about the care my 12-year-old baby Dharma received! Leaving an older dog behind is never easy, but from the moment we connected, I knew Dharma would be in loving hands. Mei was incredibly attentive, patient, and truly treated Dharma like part of the family. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Dharma came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves dogs and understands the needs of senior pups, Mei is the one. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my girl!”
“Taylor is a wonderful sitter. She is very caring and provides great care to our dog - Sky. Always providing us timely updates on Sky’s condition while he is with her. We will definitely use her service again.”
“Jeannette took good care of LuLu during the stay, and sent multiple pictures updates. I will definitely recommend and will book again if I need a sitter in the future! Thanks again Jeannette!”

She and her husband are kind, friendly people who clearly love dogs. I can’t thank them enough and would recommend to anybody!”
“Amazing! She is the kindest animal lover. I feel like my girl had summer camp and a week with grandma all rolled together. She gave great daily feedback and supportive pictures to get me through my separation anxiety. I am so glad I went this route and didn’t board my girl.”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
94% of sitters in Auburn 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 Auburn 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 Auburn.
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 Auburn. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Auburn 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 VA 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.
