From start to finish, he was incredibly flexible and easy to work with, which made the whole experience completely stress-free.

About: I have been a life long dog lover. I grew up on a ranch with many animals which is where my love if animals started. I have always been the go-to person for friends and families who need help dog sitting while they are away. I have experience and background clearance through Riverside County Sheriffs Animal Services as a volunteer and dog foster. When your pet is in my care, they will be treated as my own with love and structure. I am a full time teleworker. I am home with my own dog daily. I am able to tend to the dog’s needs anytime and regularly take short lunch walks to manage energy. I have a fenced yard and multiple kennels in the home, if needed. I prefer to have dogs that can be comfortable in the space without being in a kennel, but it is available if the pup prefers a kennel. If I am caring for the pet in another home, regular check-ins in a scheduled basis.
“Moriah was able to take Marlow with short notice during our family crisis. She sent pictures and a video of Marlow having a great time, one less thing for me to worry about. Marlow had a great time running around the yard or resting inside out of he heat. Moriah was very flexible with my husband dropping her off and me picking her up. I would definately book with her again.”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life — for as long as I can remember, there has always been a dog by my side. Over the past 20+ years I have developed a deep understanding of dog behavior, body language, and what it takes to make a pup feel safe and loved in a new environment. Beyond my own dogs, I have informally cared for the pets of friends and family many times, so I know how to handle dogs with different personalities and energy levels. Right now I share my home with my own 5-year-old male goldendoodle, so your dog will always have a friendly, socialized companion to play with. What truly sets me apart is my availability and home setup. I do not work outside the home, which means I am here with the dogs all day — no long hours alone, no anxious waiting. We have a large backyard where dogs can run, explore, and burn off energy freely. I also have a 2-year-old son at home, so I only welcome dogs that are comfortable around young children, and I take that responsibility seriously for everyone's safety. If you are looking for a sitter who treats your dog like family and is genuinely home all day to give them attention, walks, and playtime — you found the right place. I don't work outside the home, I'm here around the clock, seven days a week. Morning walks, midday playtime in the big backyard, afternoon couch cuddles — I'm always present. My goldendoodle keeps us on a consistent daily routine, which visiting dogs love. My home is a safe, welcoming space for dogs. We have a large fully fenced backyard where dogs can run and play freely without any worry. Inside, my goldendoodle sets a calm, friendly tone that helps visiting dogs feel at ease quickly. I supervise all dog interactions closely, especially since I have a 2-year-old at home — safety for both the kids and the dogs is always my top priority. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, and I make sure every pup has their own space to relax and decompress when they need it. I always ask owners upfront about their dog's routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any quirks so I can keep things as consistent as possible. I treat every dog the way I'd want my own to be treated — with patience, attention, and a whole lot of love.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Colton commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,556 sitters in Colton, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
