“Frankie always comes home so happy from Nicole and her family. I love how she responds so quickly to any texts that I send and I send a quite a lot! I can’t say enough wonderful things about Nicole. Don’t even give it another thought, just book your dog in before she gets another booking as she fills up fast!”
“Ilona was very calm and sweet at drop off. She took really good care of Choo Choo. She got him to eat which is quite a chore. She sent me pictures during his stay. I will definitely use her again.”
“Super chill Kevin is happy to accommodate. We were a last minute family-emergency type thing and he was glad to help us out. Not anxious about any quirks our baby had, observant and could see that she had chosen a safe spot and that’s where he set her things and food. Ten out of ten would totally recommend again.”
“Frisco always has a great time. He loves Susana and her family. He has so much fun playing with all the other doggies. So glad to have found someone so trustworthy to take care of my baby. I appreciate you!”
“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.”
“Anh and William were fantastic. We left our lab, Bailey, with them for a two week stay. Having never had our dog be anywhere without us we were worried a bit but it ended up being a fantastic stay for Bailey. We received pics and videos daily and saw how much fun she was having with the family and their dog. Highly recommend Anh and William.”
“Laura was very accommodating to our last minute schedule adjustment. She took great care of our girl, sent pictures and communicated regularly with courtesy updates. She was kind, professional and we will definitely use Laura again!”
“How does one pick a dog sitter - the cost, the reviews etc. Well, for my pup’s first time boarding I studied my pup’s disposition at the meet & greet. She picked the sitter & space in which she’d feel comfortable & safe. Stacy & her family showered her with lots of attention & took care of my pup very well. So relieved to pick up a happy puppy 4 days later and know we found a wonderful sitter for the future.”
“Crosby has the best time with Tiffany and her family! When we had a last-minute delay getting home, she didn’t hesitate to take him for another night. We always know he’s in great hands. 🫶”
“Tina was wonderful. She constantly sent updates and photos to let me know how and what Brownie Muffins was doing. I appreciated that so much. Time gave me the peace of mind and comfort knowing my little doggie was being well taken care”
“Dina, was amazing. She was exactly what we were looking for. We felt very confident and trustworthy with her. She kept us updated with daily pictures and texts. Would rebook again.”
“Willy had another amazing time with Ashley. She was in contact with us the whole time providing updates on his feeding and mood along with photos and videos of Willy living his best life :D Thank you again!”
“Nicole went above and beyond with our new dog Charlie (Chuck the Duck). She sent pictures everyday and let us know how he was doing. Took him on walks and made sure he was comfortable in their home. She even helped him out when he had tummy issues by giving him pumpkin! I can’t recommend her enough. We will most definitely be using her again. I’m pretty sure Charlie was upset he had to come home. I mean, I would be.”
About: I’m an animal communicator with a deep, intuitive connection to animals — I don’t just care for your pets, I actually listen to them. I’ve spent my life alongside dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and needs, including my own two girls, Daisy and Chloe. I understand animal behavior, body language, and emotional wellbeing on a level that goes beyond feeding and walks. Senior pets, anxious dogs, and strong-willed characters are my specialty. Your fur family will be safe, seen, and genuinely loved while you’re away. I’m currently available full time through mid-September, making this a great time to book! After that I take on seasonal evening work Thursday through Sunday, so I’m still available for daytime care and drop-ins year round. I’ll always be upfront about my schedule so you can plan with confidence. My home is warm, relaxed, and animal-friendly with a fenced yard. We did hospice for a number of dogs and cats from 2014 to 2025, so we installed Life Proof floors and have furniture to accommodate the older ones. My two dogs, Daisy and Chloe, are social, dog-park regulars who welcome new friends easily. I have crates available for large dogs if needed.
“Anjali was absolutely amazing with my little Lucy. Since it was my first time using her to board Lucy I was nervous but she put my mind at ease by sending pictures throughout the day and first thing every morning. It was so reassuring to see Lucy feeling comfortable under her care. Anjali’s attentiveness and regular updates made all the difference. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I’ve already decided Lucy will definitely be returning to Anjali’s care. Highly recommend her services to any parent looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.👍”
“Maryam took such great care of our dog. It was our first time leaving her with someone else and she sent us pictures and updates throughout our trip. Thank you Maryam!”
“Ivy took care of our dog Ellie in her home, even with all the particular dog needs. It was great not to have anything to worry about while we were cruising. I would use Ivy again in a heartbeat.”
“Candy took great care of my nervous pup Molly, very kindly accommodated my quirky schedule, and even provided some super helpful tips and gear for me as a new pet owner. Her gentle Viszla Cleo was a great influence and company for Molly too. The backyard and sunroom are a fantastic space. Highly, highly recommend her.”
“Cayley was fantastic!!! Not only did she take our reservation super last minute, she really went above and beyond taking our dog in hikes and providing all the snuggles my Velcro dog craves. Can’t thank you enough Cayley. Mina will definitely be missing you and your family.”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Castaic 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 Castaic 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 Castaic.
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 Castaic. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 Castaic 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.
