“Highly recommend pet sitter. Connie has been taking cate of my Zero for almost over two years. Leaving Peke for the first time with Connie was with no doubt. We went for a four day trip with no worries at all. Connie follows pet instructions and medications very well. In other words, my pets are very happy with under Connie’s care. Is hard to find someone who you can trust.”

“Neicie was a great doggy daysitter! They gave us short and quick updates with a video and picture. Milo enjoyed his stay and when he came back he had a bandana on and smelled nice haha 😂 We plan to take him back if we need a daysitter in the future.”

“Oi was so flexible, adaptable and went above and beyond to give Theo a bath and trimmed his nails. I’m so happy she was able to spend time with him, and he seems clean and relaxed. She definitely cared for him very well and knew to feed him an unreasonable number of times since he is a growing kitten. She is very nice and good to work with. I will definitely book again.”

“Arthur was very communicative and sent lots of videos and pictures. We are very happy with the care they provided to our Olive. We highly recommend Arthur and will utilize his services in the future.”

“Anne and Jason were wonderful and took great care of our old dog Coco. They provided us with updates and pictures of our dog which gave us great peace of mind. She seemed so content with the care they provided that she almost didn’t want to come home. Would definitely have them watch my pet again.”

“Shelby and Scott took amazing care of Cali while we were away! We were so happy to have Cali stay with other labs and it was clear she was enjoying herself through Shelby’s updates! We will definitely be coming back soon! Thank you! :)”

“Karen and Mel were amazing! They were so loving to my kitty and sent me daily pictures and videos. My kitty had a blast and was provided a safe home. I was able to relax knowing he was in good hands!”

“Very dependable; her family is lovely, they made my Polly feel like part of the family. Super thankful for the daily updates and pictures. Thank you so much! Hope to book again 🙏🏽😭”

“Gentle and tender with animal, follow instructions well and my cat likes to be with him and his apartment. to the point and simple communication esp when you make you request clear! I will come back with Martin when I need a stay for precious. Thank you Martin!”

“Pimpaka sent lots of photos and videos of Riley walking and playing in her backyard! Pimpaka seems to really love dogs and she even had extra treats and food to get Riley to eat when she was too anxious to eat her normal food. Thanks Pimpaka!!”
“Yueli did a fine job with making our 3 pups feel at home. She obviously gets along well with little fur balls of various breeds! The time spent around other dogs was good, and we were sent plenty of pictures and videos to keep tabs on their days. Thanks again. -Ettingers”

“Ariana and her husband were AMAZING with my husky mix. He is large dog with high energy and can be quirky, but he settled in so nicely, and they were fantastic with him. They got to know his personality, sent photos daily, took him on walks in the morning/evening, being mindful of the heat, and always responded quickly to my texts. I can't recommend them more!”

“Jose and his wife are so incredibly welcoming and our little Coral felt instantly safe with them. They were so loving to her and kept in contact with my husband and I daily. They are wonderful hosts for your furry babies! Will for sure be rebooking with them!”

“I was super hesitant leaving anyone with my fur baby, but Steven made this process so easy. He constantly sent updates and pics and in all the pics my Mac looked so happy. I will definitely be booking with Steven again if needed. Highly recommend.”

“Estrella kept us updated with photos and text updates. This was our first time leaving our dogs. Our dogs were in her care for 5 nights & She kept us at ease and we knew our dogs were in good care!”

“Leaving our dog with a sitter for the first time was stressful, but Madalyn was so accommodating to our needs. We could not have picked a better sitter for our anxious dog’s first nights without us. Madalyn’s communication throughout the booking and sitting processes was top notch and everything went smoothly!”

“Paul and his wife are very friendly and made sure my dogs were comfortable and happy. One of my dogs is getting up in age and they were understanding of the challenges that can lead to (slow walks, decreased appetite, etc.). He sent multiple pictures during their stay and kept me updated on their experience and Daisy's eating. I would definitely book Paul again if I need a dog sitter.”

“Titus had so much fun with this family! They took great care of my son. He was a little sad when he came home. I guess he had too much fun and didn’t want to come home! Will definitely have them babysit in the future!”

Kitti is wonderful! Our dog Guinness is 12 years old & nervous around other dogs. Up until now, she had never stayed with anyone other than family. My son was getting married out of town, which meant the entire family would be at the wedding. We took Guinness to meet Kitti twice before leaving her, and by the 2nd day of the long weekend, not only was she happy, she was following the other dogs around & sleeping next to them. Kitti was patient, loving, & treated Guinness as if she'd been part of the pack forever. Guinness will now be going over for occasional play dates. Thank you Kitti!
We boarded Kida with Sandra for a long weekend and had an amazing experience! Sandra would send us updates morning and night on how Kida was doing and took lots of pictures/videos. She brought her to parks, and gave Kida plenty of play time. We would happily board Kida with Sandra anytime!

I had an unexpected emergency and needed someone to take care of Buddy on very short notice. I was honestly a little nervous because Buddy requires extra care — he needs medication and injections, so he’s definitely not the easiest dog to look after. I’m so grateful I found Oi. She was incredibly patient, responsible, and attentive to all of Buddy’s needs. She carefully followed all of my instructions, made sure his medication and injections were given properly and on time, and kept me updated so I didn’t have to worry while I was away. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Buddy was being cared for by someone who genuinely paid attention to him and took his needs seriously. I would absolutely trust Oi with Buddy again and highly recommend her, especially to anyone whose pet needs a little extra care and attention. Thank you so much for taking such good care of him!
Joyce was amazing and truly went above and beyond! She was incredibly accommodating with several requests and sent daily updates. We were abroad for two weeks and felt completely at ease knowing everything was in great hands. So grateful for her flexibility, kindness, and care. Highly recommend!

Pamela is the best dog sitter I've had for Kira. I've probably booked her about 10 times by now. She takes such amazing care of Kira. I love her updates every morning, afternoon, and evening . They're like little report cards and they give me peace of mind while I am away. On top of being great with Kira, Pamela is incredibly accommodating and flexible with drop off/pick up times. I truly couldn't ask for a better sitter. Highly recommend!

First time booking on Rover and so happy that I found Monica! Monica has been very active responding to my requests and questions and also very accommodating with scheduling. My Wini has been thoroughly cared for when at Monica’s place for a week. Monica provides daily updates via photos and also looks out for anything odd and will let you know. I can tell Wini is very happy when at Monica’s place as she cares for Wini like her own. I will definitely be booking with Monica again in the future!

Wan's care for our two dogs was excellent! Kono is a senior dog on pain medication and Chewie is on medication for anxiety. I received daily photos and updates on how they were doing. They looked very happy and peaceful. I'll definitely pick Wan to care for our pups during next vacation. Thank you, Wan!!
Sharlyn was terrific! A very positive attitude! We felt very comfortable leaving our Huskies (85 lbs & 64 lbs) with her. Her yard was spacious and gave our furries a ton of roof to roam and jet around. Sharlyn had a dedicated doggie room with a dog door offering ‘in & out privileges’. All in all, a great choice! Thank you, Sharlyn! Sincerely, Ken & Tammy

Jesus R was an absolute 5-star dog sitter! Over 6 days, he kept me completely at ease with great communication and regular photo updates, so I always knew my pup was in good hands. He followed all my care instructions to a T, and most importantly, my dog was happy and well-cared for the entire time. I returned to a content, healthy pup — what more could you ask for? I would highly recommend Jesus R to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive dog sitter. Will definitely be booking again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Citrus home-away-from-home, 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 Citrus.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Citrus 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 , 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 .
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.
