“Absolutely awesome job watching Linguini! Pictures and updates were fantastic, I could tell he was having a good time and he was well taken care of! He currently has allergies and she made sure he got his special food and allergy meds! Will definitely use for next time!”
“Joseph and Marikris came through on a last-minute reservation and provided exceptional levels of care for my special needs dog. My dog Daisy had been recently diagnosed with IVDD and I was prepared to cancel my trip, but Marikris assured me of her professional veterinary background and familiarity with the condition, and I felt confident trusting J&M with her care. Daisy looked so happy in all the photos they shared, and I feel truly blessed to have found such kind and attentive neighbors to care for my girl. Thank you so much Joseph & Marikris, you guys are amazing and I look forward to working together again 🙌”
“Eun took great care of our dog while we were out of town. I knew he had a good time because there were no complaints on the car ride home. He just came back very calm ☺️ Eun also sent me pictures and updates during his stay, so nice because we really miss him when we’re away. Highly recommend Eun!”
“Liam & Nadia are wonderful. They’re very responsive and easy to communicate with. My dog, Alfie enjoyed staying there and being with the other dogs. I also received pictures of Alfie during his week stay which was very nice. They have a very large enclosed yard area for the dogs to run around and play. I definitely recommend them. Thank you Liam & Nadia for taking such great care of Alfie!”
About: I am an insured pet care professional, and I bring the same kindness and thoughtfulness I would want someone to show my own pet. What sets me apart is that I’m dependable, attentive, and very detail-oriented. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and routine, carefully follow your instructions, and keep you updated with plenty of photos and notes. My goal is simple: to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and genuinely well cared for whenever they’re with me. I cared for my own dog, Charlotte, for 10 years—from her puppy stage through her senior years—so I understand how much a dog’s needs can change over time. My experience with puppies began even earlier, when a neighbor who bred dogs trusted me to help care for her newborn litters. I understand the patience, consistency, and routine puppies need, including reinforcement of potty training, basic commands, leash manners, and good habits. I also know that senior dogs may need slower walks, extra time, and someone who pays attention to the little changes. I'm currently working part-time, so I will have the flexibility to walk your pet or drop in for your pet during the day while you are away. Looking forward to new clients! I currently provide care in my clients’ homes, where pets can remain comfortable in their familiar surroundings and routines. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for walks, meals, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and needs, keep their space tidy, and send photos and written updates after every visit. All dog walks are private and on leash. At this time, I do not offer care in my own home, overnight stays, transportation, or medication administration.
“Great boarding experience, really easy to communicate and build trust. From the beginning I had the feeling that they knew how to take care of a dog and I wasn’t wrong about it. Lola was happy to stay with them, which for me is the most important thing. I would definitely trust them again to take care of Lola.”
About: I have lifelong experience caring for dogs and currently have a sweet 1.5-year-old Toy Poodle. I provide a clean, safe, and loving environment where your dog will receive plenty of affection, daily playtime, and constant care. I treat every dog like part of my family and keep parents updated with frequent photos and video updates. am fully dedicated to caring for pets at home. My daily routine is very flexible, which allows me to provide constant supervision, play time, frequent potty breaks, and daily walks for your dog throughout the entire day I offer a very safe, warm, and loving home environment. I have a friendly 1.5-year-old Toy Poodle who loves company. Your dog will receive personalized attention, regular photo updates, and a calm, comfortable space to relax and play safely.
“Alex saved the day again by watching our Margie over the New Year holiday! She is SO happy when she sees him. Her eyes light up in every photo and she is always so relaxed in the evening after a full day of activities. We are so glad we found Alex!”
“I have left my pup with Shirley every time I’ve needed a sitter and she has a grand time every time. They never fail to send videos, photos and updates throughout the day every day that she’s with them. I never feel worried and always feel comfortable leaving my pup here 😊”
“This was our first time leaving our nearly 3 year old dog with someone and Lisa was fantastic. She and her home are so dog friendly. Communication was great including working with us to facilitate a slightly earlier than planned pick up. We’ll definitely be using Lisa again.”
About: I work from home, which means your pet gets something most sitters can't offer: a human who's actually there all day. I do house sitting in your home and drop-in visits across Walnut Creek and nearby areas. I grew up with dogs and cats, have helped friends and family with everything from puppies to senior dogs, and recently welcomed a cat into my own home. I'm comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving medication exactly as you instruct — including pets with special routines or medical needs. Before we start, I'll learn your pet's habits and preferences so the routine doesn't skip a beat. While you're away, you'll get regular photo updates so you can see they're relaxed and happy. I work from home with a fully flexible schedule, so pet care fits around your pet's routine — not the other way around. For house sitting, I'm there through the day and overnight; for drop-ins, we'll lock in visit times before booking so feeding and walks stay consistent. Your home and your pet's routine stay exactly as you left them. Before we start, we'll do a meet-and-greet to cover temperament, medications, feeding, quirks, and emergency contacts. I'm background-checked through Rover, and I'll send photo updates and messages so you're never wondering how they're doing.
“I highly recommend Niraj! Our bulldog Wally has a lot of anxiety and is a often tough to watch because of his energy. Niraj was so great with him and made us feel at ease while we were away traveling. He provided daily updates and had a great calm energy that Wally needed in a sitter. He was also very responsive in his communication and flexible. We will definitely be going back to Niraj in the future!”
“Tammy was great! She took my 3 dogs on very short notice, only 2 days notice. We did a meet and greet the same day I contacted her and was very friendly and easy going with the dogs. My dogs immediately felt comfortable in her house and around her which is rare for my dogs because they are kind of timid with some people. She sent me daily pix and updates. When I picked them up, they all looked happy.”
“Meredith was more than accommodating when our booked sitter had to cancel last minute. She has an impressive background and I'm so thankful that our paths crossed. Our big boy came home happy and tired - my favorite combination ❤️ we will definitely use her in the future.”
“Karla and Xavier provided a safe space and an entertaining time for our fur baby, Kona. They were able to accommodate our boarding request with a short notice and we were so appreciative! We felt and saw the care and love they bestowed upon Kona. They treated her like family and Kona loved the time she spent with them. Karla and Xavier are now our first choice for Kona’s boarding. Thank you!!”
“We felt so comfortable leaving our pup Henna with Maria and Kevan’s family! They did a great job keeping us updated and Henna seemed to have a very fun time there. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her!”
“Nicole was amazing with our two dogs. They had such a good time running around and on their walks! Nicole was amazing with coordinating pick up and drop off! Will 100% ask Nicole to watch our girls again.”

Joseph and Marikris were absolutely wonderful! They took great care of our dog Lucy and were incredibly accommodating with our last-minute changes. Their flexibility, kindness, and communication made the entire experience stress-free. We felt confident that Lucy was in great hands. Highly recommend them and we already have our next boarding booked.
Yena is amazing! She was very easy to communicate with and regularly sent updates including pictures and videos about my puppy Camila, who boarded here for the first time. I appreciated having the meet and greet so Camila could interact with all the other dogs there before staying overnight. All the dogs were friendly and respectful. Camila was able to play in the yard and inside the home. Yena was kind to keep the same food routine at home, which I found very helpful. It was great to have my puppy in a safe and fun environment while I was away for a trip. I think Camila had so much fun that I will have to bring her over for daycare in the near future! Thank you Yena!
Another trip, another amazing experience with Stefanie. Not everyone is up for the task of caring for a special needs dog, but Stefanie is knowledgeable, compassionate, and PATIENT. I have tremendous peace of mind while I’m traveling. Thanks again. Stefanie, for caring for my sweet, old girl!
Really appreciate the flexibility and care provided for my dog Kayla by Sophia and her husband Jonathan. Had some possible last-minute Vet issues and they were willing to still care for her. Fortunately, everything went smoothly and they kept me informed of Kayla‘s visit and sent photos. They also sent me photos when I asked as I was missing her. Kayla enjoyed her walks and really appreciated that she could sit anywhere on the couch and on their bed. Definitely will use them again if needed. Thanks to you both!
Our dog Stirling had a great time with Jess & her dog Peach! They went on walks, went to the coffee shop and played at the dog park. Jess was so caring and always communicated any questions she had and she gave updates with cute photos. We were so happy to find Jess on Rover! We will be hiring her again soon!
Serafina was amazing with our anxious girl!! This was our first time hiring a pet sitter and I had no idea how our dog would do, but Serafina put both her and I at ease. She sent updates and photos throughout our trip and our girl seemed right at home with her and her fiancé. She has such a calm, gentle demeanor and a lovely home and yard. Our pup came home clearly very happy and well cared for. I would definitely have Serafina watch our girl again in the future!
Jill and her family gave Cooper great care and their dog Buddy was the perfect best friend for Cooper during his time with them. They took care of him for over a week and we did not have to worry one bit because we knew he was being well taken care of. We would definitely bring Cooper back here for future vacations.
A great indicator of how it went at the sitters is how much my dogs sleep when they get home...they have slept non-stop for 2 days. :-))) Catherine is great. She was very responsive and accommodating. She had great communication before during and after. I look forward to using her again.

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.
93% of sitters in Bancroft 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 Bancroft 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 Bancroft.
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 Bancroft. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 Bancroft 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.
