“We had a great experience with Eric. He is kind & easy going, kept me updated with photos& videos, attentive to my senior dog ‘s needs & followed care instructions, including giving medications AM& PM. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a sitter in the area.”
“Qin L was absolutely amazing with Pogo! She was incredibly attentive, patient, and kind, making sure he felt comfortable and at ease the entire time. I received regular updates and could tell he was in safe, loving hands. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for Pogo Highly recommend!”
“This is our doggo Mindy's 2nd stay with Jane, and we are lucky that we were able to book with her again! I could tell from the frequent videos and pics that Mindy really enjoyed her time. She was completely and thoughtfully taken care of the entire time. Five stars. Ten stars. All the stars.”
“Jennifer was a wonderful caretaker for my 2 small senior dogs. On short notice, she was able to accommodate them for that weekend and was able to be flexible with drop off and pick up times. That was especially helpful for me, given the hectic weekend I had ahead. She sent me several updates with videos and pictures throughout each day of them eating, relaxing inside/outside and sleeping. Even though I was not able to reply right away, she still sent updates anyway and when I did have a chance to check my phone, it was a much needed sense of peace being able to see that my babies looked relaxed and happy while they were away from home. Her fur baby Pocky was a big ball of love during our initial meet, I knew right away things would go smoothly between our babies. When I arrived for pick up, they were both napping then happy to see me when I woke them up, tippy tapping around and loving on me. That tells me they were in good spirits and not stressed. I am new to boarding and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you Jennifer, Pocky, and family for welcoming us into your home!”
“OMG where should I start.. Star is very very good at sitting my boy! She frequently provides photos and updates and make sure everything goes fine. She informed me whenever she found some irregular activity of my dog and took care of him right away. My dog seems exhausted when he came back, I’m sure he had lots of super fun time in her house, because he’s sleeping very deep after he came back. I think he misses everything in Stars house, he didn’t even want to leave when we picked him up! I highly recommend Star to everyone!! I will definitely use her service again in the future! Thank you so much Star for taking care of my dog so well!”
“Just picked up my baby from Amy’s place! This time is no different from the past times. Amy’s service just gets better every time I board Hazyl because of her attentive nature. Hazyl was whining once again as we were driving away from her house! Not to mention, she walks right into their house every single time! I know how much Amy and her family treat her as if she were their own pet! I no longer trust anyone else to provide care for my baby. She continues to send me pictures and updates on her daily activities, but I just know she’s in such good hands that I don’t even need to worry. P.S. If you see any negative comments… no, you didn’t! I’m going to continue booking Hazyl with Amy. Your loss, my gain. See you soon—Hazyl and I will be back!!! 🐶🩷”
“We feel at ease every time we have Haejin and Victor babysit our dachshund Bella. They are true dog lovers and care for her like she’s their own. We always appreciate the updates and photos/videos. Highly recommend!”
“Karen and Mel were amazing! They were so loving to my kitty and sent me daily pictures and videos. My kitty had a blast and was provided a safe home. I was able to relax knowing he was in good hands!”
“Thank you Kathryn for taking care of my dog and being so flexible with taking him for another week! She’s so good about updating me about boomers day. I really appreciate her for taking care of boomer like he’s her own. My dog and her dog got along very well so that’s a bonus. I will definitely be booking with Kathryn again!!”
“Ani was amazing!! My dog, who has a lot of fear, warmed up so quick so I know she gave him the best care and was super gentle and patient with him! I struggle leaving him with new people but with Ani, I felt super at ease and she was super understanding and accommodating with everything he needed!”
“I had just finished writing an extensive and detailed message, explaining how they were great with First timers using this kind of service, but then my phone froze and deleted that long detailed review and I’m not gonna take the time to do it again 🤣. Just know that they knew how to handle first timers. I highly recommend them.”
“What’s a sign of an excellent Dogsitter? When you can see that your dog has bonded with the person when you go to pick up your puppers. Connie’s top priority is the safety and wellbeing of any animal in her care. I strongly recommend her.”
“Sherice and her family are patient and caring. They took great care of our senior dog. My dog is comfortable and relaxed around them and formed an instant bond. We will certainly board him again with this lovely family.”
“We loved Rebecca! Our dogs felt so comfortable and at home with her family. She is very nurturing and stayed extra connected with us with texts and pictures while we were away. Rebecca and her family are so sweet and you can tell its a warm environment for the animals. Her yard is nice and fenced in and secure so they cant get out. And i loved that our dogs got to play with her dogs and children. Her daughter even cried when we left with the dogs. So sweet! We will definitely have our dogs stay with her any time we go away. ”
“Penny loves her stays with Sandra and Bao Bao. I know that she is in good hands and I have the comfort of knowing that she treats Penny as if she were her own. Sandra always responds quickly to any concerns I have and keeps me posted with daily activities.”
About: We’re a fun, family home with lots of love to give! Your pup will enjoy playtime, snuggles, and a cozy environment where they’re treated like one of our own. I believe in gentle care, clear communication and making sure you feel comfortable while you’re away Because I work part-time and my husband works from home, there is consistent supervision in our house. Pet care easily fits into our daily rhythm. we’re already used to giving lots of love and attention. Feedings when scheduled.Your pet would be part of our normal family life, not left alone for long stretches. In our home, pets become part of our family’s daily routine. I keep feeding schedules consistent with what they’re used to, provide supervised playtime, outdoor patio breaks, and lots of affection. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful and social or shy and need a quieter space. Safety is very important to me, so all interactions with my children and our cat are gentle and supervised, and pets are never left outside unattended. I also send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and at ease.
“Charlie had a great time with Janice and her boys. Lots of play time and cuddles. And she checked in with me often, sending lots of photos and video while I was away. I’ll happily bring Charlie again!”

Madalyn was awesome and perfect for my dog Marshmello. He seemed to get comfortable with her immediately which is unlike him. As someone with an anxious pet, I’m usually stressed leaving him with someone he’s not familiar with. But Madalyn has this sweet, calming energy that both my dog and I picked up on. I’m telling you, I’ve never seen my dog care less that I picked him up lmao. He felt right at home with her. And I’m convinced he was fine making her his new mom :) Madalyn was very accommodating and answered all my questions, she kept me updated and sent pictures and videos of my pup. I would recommend her if you need someone to watch your pet. I would definitely use her again if needed in the future. Thanks for treating my pup so well Madalyn!
Elvierys was so great with both of our pups! She handled both a puppy and a senior dog at the same time! We heard from her each day and received photos of the dogs! She was very caring and notified us of anything that was going on such as if the senior dog seemed nervous about the stay so we were always aware of how the boarding was going. She was very quick to respond to check ins and really cared about the dogs! Highly recommend her for any boarding needs! Thank you again!
This was the 2nd time this month I’ve booked with Qiting and both times were last minute. Originally I had booked both trips for 3 nights and extended an extra day with no problems at all. She even sent pictures throughout my whole trip. She is very reliable and she will definitely be my go to pet sitter on Rover. She is the BEST!!
Fantastic people!! I will definitely be using Georgina again! I could feel the care that the family provided. I was afraid Bailee, my dog, wouldn't want to come back home! Lol Absolutely the best! She listened to my requests and acted on them. I consider it a Perfect Weekend for my baby

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 Avocado Heights 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 Avocado Heights 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 Avocado Heights.
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 Avocado Heights. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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 Avocado Heights 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.
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.
