“Randy is an amazing dog sitter! My pups loved being at his house and warmed up to him immediately. I received pictures everyday too. Randy is my go too dog sitter now. He is fabulous!”
“I really liked how we did a meet and greet before she agreed to watch my dog to make sure our doggos got along. My dog had such a good time playing with her dog Pearl that my dog was exhausted by the time she got home. I also appreciated all the photos and videos she sent.”
“We were very pleased with Missy. She has a nice yard for the dog to roam when outside. She sent numerous photos during our dogs stay. We would use her again if we ever return to New Orleans.”
“Cheryn was amazing! You could immediately tell she was really caring and passionate about dogs. Huey had a great time and we loved the great communication and pictures. Highly recommend Cheryn!”
“Jon did a great job watching my dog Kiwi. I’m so glad she had so many other dogs to play with, she was definitely happy and fully exercised when I picked her up :)”
“Stacey took amazing care of our two boys!! We were nervous about leaving them for two weeks over the holidays—we’d never been away from them for that long. But Stacey made sure the boys were well-taken care of with lots of cuddles, love, and friends to play with. She kept us updated with photos, and took the most amazing portrait shots of them. She really went above and beyond to make sure they were safe and happy, and we are so grateful. Definitely recommend!”
“Lynn took such great care of our dog Lucy! She has an awesome large fenced in yard and our girl looked so happy in all the pics and videos that were sent throughout the week. Will definitely go to Lynn again and highly recommend her!”
“Natalie took great care of our dog Taz and provided lots of updates. I could tell in the pictures that Taz was so happy and it was a relief that he was in good hands. Thank you Natalie, you’re a life saver!”
“I can’t recommend Mike enough. He was very communicative and sent so many wonderful pictures and videos. I knew my dog was well taken care of the entire time!”
“This was our very first time boarding our 14 year old Boston who is nearly fully deaf, has declining vision, and medication needs. We were beyond nervous. I found Rover and it appealed to me because I didn't want her left in a cage most of the day being confused and thinking we'd abandoned her. Ben was fantastic with settling my nerves about leaving her. She was happy when we left and happy when we picked her up. He handled all of her meds and sent us pictures along the way.”
“Mary was a wonderful sitter. She sent pictures and kept me updated on the status of my fur baby. He seemed to be in great spirits upon picking him up. Will definitely recommend Mary as a sitter and utilize her service again in the near future.”
“Chayanne was great with my best friend Phil. He came home happy and healthy and appropriately tired. She was super flexible with my schedule changes and a good communicator. Recommend!”
“I felt so safe leaving my baby with Mrs. D! She is a true animal whisperer. I know that my pup got the same love that she gives her own animals and I found that so comforting. My Santiago got plenty of exercise and I got pictures and videos sent to me while I was working. I will definitely leave my baby with her again in the future. Thank you again 🥰”
“Serena was incredible. She was very responsive, flexible to some of my last minute schedule changes, and really sweet with my dogs. I have zero complaints and would absolutely recommend her!”
“Maria was really great handling my dog, I was a bit worried because my dog is a bit hyper, but she continue to send pictures of her having a great time. It made me feel 10 times better definitely would recommend.”
“I highly recommend Iryna for dog sitting! She took good care of my dog for 5 nights and kept me updated me the whole time. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Crystal was amazing. Nola was extremely comfortable with her as she was very attentive. Crystal was very responsive and sent me pictures and videos of NOLA during her stay. I will absolutely be using her again in the future.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Avondale
Our experience with Lori was great! This was our first time ever leaving Gunner. We were very anxious but Lori and husband love for dogs was obvious from the first meeting. Although it was new being away from us, he was taken such great care of by them. We will be using them again for sure! We appreciate the loving care provided for Gunner. Thanks Lori!

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 Avondale 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 Avondale.
<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 Avondale 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 LA 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.
