“She and her family are lovely and took incredible care of my baby! Her babies loved my baby and even asked if he could stay which brought me so much happiness. She kept me updated on him even when he had a slight medical issues which I appreciates. Will definitely be returning!”


“Chona was a fantastic sitter for our Frenchie, Coco. She communicated often with texts and photos, took Coco on walks and outings, and made sure she was comfortable and calm the whole stay. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and would definitely book with Chona again.”

“100% Satisfaction! This was our first time leaving our dog, and we were nervous. After meeting Tyler, our dog took to him quickly which was very unusual. Each day Tyler updated us with texts and pictures which gave us peace while we were gone. He understood our dog's needs and personality traits, and that was a huge relief to us. We would highly recommend Tyler to anybody who has a pet that needs a lot of attention and close supervision. Our dog Kony truly enjoyed his time away.”

“Jennifer was super easy to work with. She communicated really well and she let me know that Luna was safe and comfortable. She really made me feel at ease about leaving my pet with her over the weekend.”


“Very thankful for being able to have Allison watch my dogs this weekend so my wife and I could celebrate our anniversary! Allison was thorough and attentive to detail during the meet and greet, forming a quick bond with the dogs and quickly understanding their needs and routines. Frequent communication and updates along with photos of the dogs each day gave me a peace of mind that they were in great hands! Highly recommend Allison if you want someone who will take great care of your dogs, engage with them, and communicate often with you assuring you of their well-being! Thank you again Allison for all the care and love you gave my dogs this weekend!”

“Celia was very kind, understanding and helpful she accepted my last minute request. Great person and I felt extremely safe leaving my husky with her, she made sure to attend ALL my dogs needs. She made sure my dog was safe and loved for her stay! I absolutely recommend her to anyone needing someone to take care of their pet! 10/10 service and very trustworthy.”

“I feel completely comfortable leaving my dog with Deb. She is great at giving updates, pictures and responding promptly to any messages before & during Dak’s stay. She treats our pup like her own. We have booked with her numerous times and I am so glad we found her on the rover app.”

“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Ciara and her family! ❤️ They took such great care of our four-legged son, Bailey, while we were away. Knowing he was being loved and cared for made it so much easier for us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. Ciara kept us updated every day on how Bailey was doing, and we absolutely loved receiving the pictures! It gave us so much peace of mind seeing his happy little face while we were away. 🐶❤️ Thank you, Ciara and family, for loving Bailey like he was your own. We are so grateful for the care, love, and attention you gave him. We highly recommend Ciara to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and loving dog sitter. Bailey definitely enjoyed his stay—and we think he may have been a little spoiled! 😊”

“When Elliott our dog,heard Bridget on the phone with us discussing her program with us, he came running over to the phone to list. He picked her, and we found out why. He fit right into the routine. He was loved and cared for like their own dogs. He made friends with the other dogs, and he was relaxed in every picture she sent out, as we received updated throughout the entire weekend. Bridget and her husband are running an outstanding program for the animals they receive because they treat them like their own. We will use them again and again, as we have made lifelong friends we trust, and we recommend that you give them the opportunity to earn their trust with your pet as well.”

“Shayne was great with Zeus and Pesto and was able to take care of them fairly last minute. They have a wonderful space. We received pictures and they boys seemed like they were having a great time! Would definitely recommend Shayne.”

“Rotoria was awesome and took such wonderful care of our furry baby, Sherlock! She communicated quickly with us and sent fun pictures of Sherlock’s adventures during his stay! He had a blast at her house and we will definitely request her to sit Sherlock again!!?”

“I’m looking forward to booking again [next year when i stay in town at Great Wolf Lodge] with Debra & Benjamin. Little Zoey is just so sweet and friendly - even on the first face to face zoom meet & greet she wagged her tail - to meeting in-person upon drop off. Immediately, my dogs appeared to feel safe and cozy upon meeting. Their home is set up to accommodate free range indoor/outdoor exploring in a safe fenced back yard/“backwoods” environment. Most importantly - at and post-pickup - my babies seemed calm, content and relaxed. Thank goodness I was able to find Debra & Benjamin to provide quality care! Def recommend”

“Lisa is so kind and detail-oriented when it comes to take care of your loving pet! This was my 1st time using Rover service as we were looking for dog-boarding at last minutes in the city of Stockton, and we were so fortunate to have Lisa helped us! Throughout the day, she sends out photos of my pet with great smiles! My pet felt very rested, and I can tell Lisa will have my next business too! Thank you Lisa!”

“Stephanie was an amazing temporary Mom for Romeo. I was tasked with finding someone to watch my dad’s companion from 350 miles away, while he was in a hospital. I was nervous to say the least. But from our first communication to when Romeo was picked up, Stephanie exuded an amount of care and kindness that let me know Romeo was in the right hands. I actually think it was a treat for Romeo to get the attention and love that he did from Stephanie. Would definitely encourage anyone to use her services.”


“Nathan and family were great! Very communicative and our dog seemed right at home! Which is huge because she has high anxiety but she loved it with Nathan and crew. Will definitely be rebooking soon.”

“I chose Margerita as my sitter the first time I used Rover and will always choose her. She is terrific. Even though it was last minute, she helped our family and we were able to attend a wedding out-of-town without worry. She even sent photos of him having a blast!-Camille D.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 10 years old, starting by helping my parents with there pet-sitting. By the time I turned 14, I began pet sitting on my own, and I’ve been trusted ever since. Neighbors, friend, and family rely on me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets like they’re my own With years of hand-on experience, I understand how important it is to keep pet safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-ins, or full-time care, I’m committed to giving every pet the attention and love they deserve. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I plan my days around the pets I care for, making sure they get consistent attention, timely feedings, and regular outdoor time. Whether you need early-morning help, mid-day visits, or evening care, I work to accommodate your routine and keep your pet’s day running smoothly. Safety is always my top priority. I make sure every pet is supervised, secure, and cared for according to their routine and needs. I follow instructions closely, keep environments clean, and pay attention to details so pets stay comfortable and stress-free. Families, neighbors, and friends have trusted me for years because I treat every animal with patience, respect, and consistency. Your pet’s well-being comes first, and I work hard to create a calm, safe environment they can relax in.
About: Hello! I’ve been teaching first graders for 24 years. While on breaks from teaching, I enjoy being a substitute doggy daycare provider. My fur baby goes to doggy daycare when I’m teaching first graders, so I know what it’s like to entrust others with your loved one! This is where I’ve been trained by the best Doggy Daycare provider in Lathrop! I substitute at my dog’s daycare when I’m not teaching first graders. I’ll be retiring from teaching soon, but in the meantime, I’m available on weekends when your regular provider isn’t available. I’m planning to start Labor Day Weekend in my home. Please plan to book in advance, so we can introduce your fur babies to my fur baby. My schnoodle gets along great with others. I’m more experienced with Shitzu’s, Poodles, Schnauzers, Yorkies, Doodles, and Cocker Spaniels no. I’m open to setting up a meet and greet with other small to medium breeds. I’m currently teaching Monday-Friday, but will be available on weekends from 4:00 pm Friday to 9:00 pm Sunday. Hourly visits are welcome, as well as over night visits. I have a large fenced back yard and my own fur baby to keep your fur baby company! I allow animals on the furniture and they get to sleep on the bed with me, unless they prefer their own crate or bedding. I have a doggy door so they have access to going potty when needed. I also live in a smoke free home.

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 Avena 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 Avena.
<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 Avena 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.
