“Diama and Cody have a wonderful yard and home and were very welcoming to my 11-year old dog. I felt totally comfortable leaving her with them, and I know she was well taken care of!”
“The best as usual! We forgot our dogs food this time and they went out and got food for us because we didn’t have time to turn around and go back. Our dogs love going here and we never have to worry!”
“Ruby does a great job and communicates well. The pictures and videos sent daily are wonderful. I would recommend Ruby for dog care and we hope to use Ruby’s service again on future needs.”
“Lynn was incredible with my Min Pin. She is very good at caring for my dog and training him to go through doggy door, manners and long walks. I highly recommend Lynn as a sitter and look forward to using her again. Thank you for caring for my son.”
“Samantha was fantastic with our babies. This is not your typical boarding place. She described it as summer camp for doggies and it is accurate. The area she has set up for the dogs is well thought-out, clean, and meets all of their needs and more. She took lots of pictures (different subject but her pictures were amazing), kept me updated throughout the day and let me know when my dogs were tucked in for the night. My city dogs got to meet horses, goats, and pigs and I think they had a great time, because they slept for so long when they got home. Im looking forward to their next summer camp with Samantha!”
“Alesya was wonderful! She sent us numerous pictures and communicated daily on Mia’s progress while she was staying with Alesya and her family. It’s obvious that Alesya cares deeply about the dogs that she watches.”
“Nicole and Jarrod have watched my pup several times and have always taken such great care of him. They are patient and kind, great communicators and I can tell that they genuinely care and treat Mac as part of the family. In addition, they are just awesome people. I feel really lucky that I found Nicole and family - can't recommend them highly enough!”
About: Hello! Now accepting new clients fall 2026-longer overnight bookings preferred! For 15 years I owned a loving house/pet-sitting and dog walking business and I grew up on a ranch so have been caring for animals my entire life, also a cat lady at heart! I've also helped my sister with her dog training business. All of greater Bend, Portland (West Valley/Mac/Salem) areas inc. coast to Newport accepted! I'd love to hike or take gentle walks/play fetch with your pups (had two of my own for many years) and as a homeowner myself I will leave your home clean and well-cared for. Longer stays preferred! I work remotely so am flexible on location in Northern Oregon. This means I have the ability to do midday or evening walks. I hike almost daily so either active or mellow elderly dogs are OK but I'm also a huge cat lover! I enjoy caring for multiple pets in one home with different needs. I'm extremely cautious yet friendly with the animals I am caring for. I have a gentle nature that works well with nervous animals however I also believe in positive reinforcement for those pets that like to push the boundary. I am in tuned to dog & cat body language, have years of experience caring for other parts of a home long-term, and as a homeowner myself am very responsible.
“Another fabulous stay for Lulah with Susan and Irv! Susan went out of her way to get Lulah to eat, as she has sometimes gone on a hunger strike when I lave her 💜 Thank you again, and we look forward to seeing you again soon 💜”
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful and loving care of our Noah 😃🙏🏻 he’s not the easiest puppy to care for, but they did a fantastic job caring for him and made sure he was happy and healthy throughout his stay. They sent thorough updates and pictures throughout his stay, which was greatly appreciated. I would love to book them again in the future and would highly recommend them. Thank you so much for making Noah’s experience a wonderful one!”
“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my hands-on experience working in a veterinary office. I have many years of experience caring for pets and understand that every animal has their own personality, needs, and routine. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, cats, and dogs, and I understand the importance of patience, attention, and gentle care. My veterinary background has given me experience recognizing when something may not be right and understanding the importance of keeping pets safe and healthy. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with lots of love, attention, and compassion. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, happy, and loved while their family is away! 🐾❤️ I also use to be a dog trainer, through Petco! References Available on request! i am new to Rover but have been caring for pets, for 28+ years! I work full-time at a veterinary clinic, so caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life. My schedule allows me to dedicate time to pet sitting outside of work, including evenings and weekends. Working in a veterinary clinic has given me valuable experience and a strong understanding of animal care. I make sure to plan my time responsibly so every pet receives the attention, love, exercise, and care they deserve. I understand how important it is to keep pets comfortable, happy, and on their normal routines while their owners are away. 🐾❤️ The safety and happiness of every pet is my top priority. With my experience working full-time in a veterinary clinic, I understand the importance of providing a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every animal. I always follow each pet's individual routine, feeding instructions, and special care needs. I make sure pets are supervised, have fresh water, receive plenty of love and attention, and stay safe in their surroundings. I am patient and gentle with all animals, whether they are playful puppies, senior pets, dogs,cats or livestock or chickens ect. I also understand how important communication is, so I love keeping pet parents updated with messages and pictures while they are away. I treat every home with respect and every pet as if they were my own. ❤️🐾
“We are so grateful to Jen and Anthony for the wonderful care they provide to Marley. They shower him with love and attention and send us wonderful photos. They are conscientious about following our instructions. Highly recommend!”
“Our pup was very happy in Delila’s care and playing her fellow doodle! Delila was very responsive and updated us with a photo each day. Planning to book again in the near future!”
“Lisa was great taking care of our Rhodesian Molly. She knows how to read dogs and gives them sufficient quiet time when they get over stimulated. I plan to use Lisa again in the future and would not hesitate in recommending her.”
“Taylor took such amazing care of my puppy Midas! He is a golden retriever puppy and a lot to handle but she did such a great job. She is accommodating, easy going and cares so well for your puppy. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“We just boarded for the first time with Tracy & Alex and it was great. They kept us updated the whole time with photos and video. It was the first time in a long time I was able to completely relax while travelling knowing that Brooks & Barley we’re having such a great time. Highly recommend and will be using them every time we travel!”
“Alba and her family were absolutely remarkable with my Cody! Throughout the day she would keep me updated on how Cody was doing. This included many photos of him having a ball! I am so delighted to have found this loving family. They are so sincere and extremely kind. I have already rebooked with Alba for future dates. I would highly recommend her! ♥️”

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.
95% of sitters in Big Oak Valley 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 Big Oak Valley 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 Big Oak Valley.
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.

You and your Big Oak Valley 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.

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.
