“Great sitter for my two littles. Very attentive and responsive. My fur kids were happy and well cared for. I received frequent updates, photos, and video. I would definitely recommend Abigail and will use her again!”
“It was my first time to leave my pets with a sitter, I didn’t know how it worked and didn’t know what to expect. For some reason, the way she handled my pets during the drop off, gave me peace of mind that they will be in good hands. She texted me pictures of how they were doing in the process. Thank you! We will be back when the need arise.”
“Clarissa was wonderful with our 3 little senior pomeranian/chihuahuas and allowed us to board them without doing a meet/greet because we're from LA area, and were going up to Fresno to hike in Yosemite. Many thanks!”
“Kara is my dog’s second favorite human, even though I have a fiance at home who he lives with and has known since he was 10 months old! Haha! We love her and we recommend her to anyone we meet because we know she will love them as if they were hers.”
“Thank you so much for accommodating us late at night. We had an emergency and Victoria was so helpful and assisted us late at night. She was kind enough to purchase Jedi’s food during this emergency. Jedi is always happy at her place. He got a special pup cup and treats from Victoria.”
About: Hi, I’m Megan and have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages from energetic puppies to sweet seniors. I understand that your pet is a cherished member of your family. My life has been shaped by the companionship of dogs, ranging from Chihuahuas to Dalmatians, and I treat every guest with the same deep respect and affection I give my own. I work from home, which means your dog will have constant companionship and supervision inside the house with me. I pride myself on being highly responsible and will strictly abide by any specific rules or medical considerations you have for your pet. I share my home with two calm, small breed Yorkies: Roxy, my 16 year old senior lady who loves to nap, and Dalton, my 8 year old boy who is a "chill" social butterfly. Dalton gets along wonderfully with other dogs and enjoys a gentle play session. * The Environment: My home is a quiet, low stress "zen" space perfect for dogs who prefer a relaxed atmosphere. * The Yard: I have a large, fully enclosed backyard with a pool. For safety, I never allow dogs outside unsupervised. * Safety First: Because I work from home, your dog will spend their day indoors with me, ensuring they stay cool and comfortable. Services & Specialized Care * Senior Care: I have a soft spot for seniors! I am very comfortable administering oral medications. Please note: I do not offer injectable medications. * Active Care: I love taking pups for walks to break up the day and ensure they get the exact level of affection and playtime they crave. For senior pups that cannot walk long distance, I have a pet stroller for pets 20lbs and below to ensure they don’t miss out on outdoor fun. I know how hard it is to leave your fur baby behind while traveling or working. My goal is to provide you with total peace of mind, knowing your pet is in a peaceful, loving, and safe environment where their unique personality is respected. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I work from home Tuesday - Friday, however I can be flexible with drop in visits. Saturday - Mondays I have open so long as I am in town. The sooner I know the better I can plan. I have a fenced in yard and live in a beautiful neighborhood to take your pup out for walks. For senior pups I have a dog stroller to ensure they don’t miss out on getting some fresh air. Pups have free rein in my office and living room to ensure they are comfy during all weather seasons. I can also create your pup if that is yours or your pups preference.
“She did amazing, very accommodating, willing to work around my schedule and willing to send us photos of how our dog was doing. I had no worries over my dog and was happy to see him enjoying himself.”
“Briana took care of our three month old poodle and pug. She was great with them, she gave them baths (when needed), played with them and kept me posted daily on them. I would use her again and recommend her to anyone who is wanting the best care for their babies.”
“I felt very comfortably leaving my dog last minute due to an emergency. Took excellent care of our Kona! I appreciate all the frequent updates/photos sent, walks she was taken on and fast response rate!! I would definitely use Brinesha again and would recommend to everyone!”
“Jack had another great stay with Farin. Farin took the time to make sure Jack was happy and worked with him to get him out for some walkies. Daily updates with pictures and videos were very appreciated! Highly Recommended!”
“Nicole ROCKS! Leaving your furry family while you’re away is never easy, but Nicole made our getaway so enjoyable because she was sending us pics and videos and updates the entire time. Our doggies were so loved and well cared for while in Nicole’s care and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She’s fabulous and really loves the pets she’s caring for. I will absolutely be requesting Nicole for future stays. 100% great experience.”
“If I could give Michelle 10 stars I would. She’s very friendly, kind, professional and good at what she does. My Dog, Luna, is very energetic but that was no problems for Michelle. I would definitely recommend Michelle, Luna will be returning soon!”
“Bob was friendly, direct, and quick to respond. I believe that my old girl was in good hands with him. It was like a little vacation for her and I know she had a great time there.”
“Amy boarded my two dogs for a week. She is an excellent sitter. She provided several updates and pictures each day, took the dogs on evening walks and made sure that they were comfortable in a new environment. The dogs also got along well with her dog Bingo. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Will definitely rebook with Amy. She is an amazing sitter.”
“Always a great experience leaving Cooper and Remi in Lisa’s care! The boys love her and her family and we always know they’ll be safe, taken care of, and loved when here. Definitely our preferred sitter for both our boys”
“This is our first time using Rover. We choose MJ for being responsive during our booking. He has a lot of years of experience with dogs and understands how to approach all situations, which made us feel at ease watching him interact with his dog and our dog. We loved receiving periodic updates and pictures. He is consistently patient with our dog’s high energy and considerate of our dogs needs. Thank you for being there for Bucky and our family!”
“Vicente, where do I start? Look, if you are reading this review and if you love your dog like we love ours, this guy is the go to guy. He took my appointment on short notice, was prompt, updated me with pictures, and most important he took care of my dog like was his own. My dogs name is Onyx a big headed American Pitbull Terrier that has a look that doesn't do him any justice, he loves people. I contacted multiple sitters to only get rejected with a " sorry I'm not available". Vicente did not hesitate to walk up to my dog, shook my hand, grab the lease and took care of business. My dog has separation anxiety, the night i picked him up he came out confident head high as to say, man i love it here. He has a kind heart for animals. Thank Bro I appreciate everything you did for us!!!!!!”
“booked at the last minute on a weekend, and Corrinna was very responsive and accommodating. My dog looked very happy and well cared for during the stay. I will definitely be coming back and would highly recommend her services”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Borden
Our usual sitter was unavailable & we trusted Abigail with our dog. It was our first time with her so we did a meet and greet. Abigail provided plenty of updates throughout the day without me having to ask. It gave us so much peace of mind. We will definitely be using Abigail again, she was very sweet & caring.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 Borden 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 Borden 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 Borden.
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 Borden. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Borden 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.
