“Jody is so sweet and took such good care of Koda. He got lots of love from her and her family. When we picked him up he seemed like he didn’t even want to go home, he was enjoying it so much. She even washed his doggie bed.♥️ Jody’s location is perfect for us since we need to pass her house on the way to the airport. We will definitely choose Jody again to take care of our Koda.”
“Nicole was great - got our shy little one out of his shell a bit and playing with the kids and other puppy's. He seemed very happy when we picked him up, and hasn't "paid us back" yet for leaving him, LOL . Nicole sent pictures every day, which was super helpful to a worried puppy parent. I think I'll be taking Mr. Magoo every few weeks for a daytime play date. :)”
“Ilona took great care of my two senior Labs. One has to take multiple medications throughout the day and Ilona was willing to take on the added work. She sent pics most everyday of the dogs looking relaxed and happy. thanks Ilona - great job!”
“Ashley took amazing care of our Dash! He had tons of play time with the other dogs that stayed with her and her own. She kept us informed and up to date on how much fun Dash was having and sent us plenty of pictures of him while we were on vacation and we could see he was in great hands! We loved that he also had a big yard to play in and a nice house to feel comfortable in. Dash will be happy to stay here again!”
“Dawn & her family were incredible! She was able to accommodate a last minute schedule change & saved our weekend getaway. Emmett had so much fun with her dog as well & came home ready to sleep the rest of the day away. I would highly recommend her to any pet owners who need a sitter.”
“Boarding our two dogs with Susana was a wonderful experience. Our previous boarding/sitting situation changed and was no longer viable right as we were coming up on a 2 week trip overseas, so we were scrambling at the last minute to try to find someone we felt we could trust to watch them. Susana really went the extra mile to help us feel comfortable, including doing a video chat with us, showing us her home and backyard, and telling us about her experience as a sitter. While we were away, she sent us pictures a couple of times per day and kept us updated on what the pups were up to and how they were doing. When they weren't eating a lot (which happens with these two when they are staying somewhere new) she offered up some suggestions. I really appreciated that she checked in with us before just doing something, because Luke has a sensitive digestive system and there are lots of things that can upset his stomach which is no fun for him or the humans who are taking care of him. She also offered to give them a bath right before we returned - and I cannot even say how much we appreciated that! They always want to cuddle with us for like two solid days after they come home from a long trip, and having them clean and smelling good makes that such a wonderful experience. The dogs seemed like they had a great time and lots of fun, and they were well taken care of. We could really tell the family loved having them stay. They will definitely be staying with Susana again on a future trip 🙂”
“Armando did an amazing job taking care of our 3 dogs. He was very responsive from the beginning and kept us updated throughout the entire stay with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs and makes them feel comfortable. When we picked them up, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. We would definitely trust him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Barley had such a great time at Rachel’s home! We were updated with photos and he was treated like a member of the family. So glad to have a new pet sitter for our boy.”
“Kevin H came to our rescue when another booking fell through at the last minute. He replied immediately, and we did a meet and greet the same day. He was very communicative throughout the stay with daily pics and updates. Best of all, our dog was happy and well cared for when we picked her up. We will definitely book with Kevin H in the future.”
“Great experience , was able to help with medications as well and my dog is very energetic and he was able to take him on walks and made sure he had lots of exercise during his stay . He is very nice and great with communication and reliable”
“This was my second time booking with Christopher and once again he was awesome. He takes such good care of Mochi and always sends updates and pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind. He’s also very accommodating with my schedule changes. Mochi is always happy and relaxed when I pick him up. I really appreciate his reliability and kindness, I’ll definitely keep booking with him!”
“Yulia and her family are so sweet! I really feel like they took excellent care of my pups while we were away. She was very communicative too, I really appreciate that! Would definitely book with her again.”
“Carter is by far one of the best pet sitters I’ve found since moving to Los Angeles. I was immediately impressed by his experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, along with his knowledge of dog behavior and training. His entire property was extremely clean and well maintained, including the house, yards, crates, and areas where the dogs stay. He’s very attentive when the dogs are outside and takes their care and safety seriously. I have a very large dog who is strong, can be stubborn, and can be difficult for some people to handle, so I’m very particular about who I leave him with. I trust Carter to watch him anytime, and I’m even considering having him train my dog as well. I would absolutely recommend Carter to anyone looking for a responsible and capable person to care for their dog.”
“Elaine and Marty are wonderful! I travel for work and had been leaving Zoey at a camp. She would come home disheveled, tired and off her schedule. What a difference this time. Zoey was happy, spoilt with attention, ate well and came home clean, undisturbed in her schedule and happy. I felt at peace with no guilt for leaving her. Zoey is very skittish and easily frightened by noise but realized she was safe with her new BFF Elaine. Wonderful people and will definitely be using them again. Thank you Elaine & Marty♥️”

“Ori is wonderful! She takes excellent care of my furry babies. She sends updates and lots of pictures on how they’re doing, eating, playing, etc. It always puts my mind at ease when I’m away to know that they’re in such good hands!”
“Wow. If we could rate Stanislava and Mario 10 stars, we would! We boarded our Husky for a couple days and they took great care of her. They took her on walks and shared photos and videos of our Husky having a great time with the other doggies. Their backyard is big and provides plenty of space for the pups to run around and have fun together. Plenty of toys, good doggie company, and great communication from Stanislava and Mario. We picked up one happy dog, that’s for sure! I would definitely recommend!”
“Erika is a wonderful dog sitter! We have left our pup with her several times and do not plan to go to anyone else. She is clearly great with dogs, sends pictures and updates daily, and my shy little dog is always excited to go back.”

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.

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.
96% of sitters in Buckhorn 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 Buckhorn 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 Buckhorn.
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 Buckhorn. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 Buckhorn 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.
