“Bridget did an excellent job taking care of my little Maltese, Pickles. It was Pickles first time away and she seems unfazed by being gone for 4 nights. Bridgett followed my care instructions to a T. I will definitely use Bridget again.”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received from this wonderful couple. They truly went above and beyond—taking him on long walks every day and treating him like one of their own. Our pup came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. They also shared lots of photos throughout, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitters!”
“Katie was AWESOME! My little guy loved her and all of her roommates. She even got him to make a couple doggie friends which was really great. She regularly sent photos and kept me updated on all of his behaviors. I didn’t worry at all during my time away from Archer(my dog). I would highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. Katie really did an amazing job.”
“We had the absolute pleasure of having Lisa care for our dog, Cooper, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Cooper is like our baby, and Lisa treated him with so much love, attention, and care—it meant everything to us. Honestly, I don’t think he even wanted to come home! She has the sweetest dog and a beautiful yard where Cooper could run and play, and he felt completely comfortable right away. Throughout my time away, Lisa sent thoughtful updates and photos that made me so happy and gave me total peace of mind. Lisa is truly a gift—reliable, kind, and clearly someone who genuinely loves what she does. I will absolutely be using her regularly and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. You would be so lucky to have her care for your dog. 5 stars all the way! ⭐️🐾”
About: I have had pets all my life all kinds of pets, dogs cats, rabbits and love all animals. I do understand the Care that pets need as well as the love when their family is away. I am a retired energetic person . I have a five year-old Maltese of my own who loves to play with other pets and loves exercise. I have had German Shepherd so I’m familiar with all sizes of dogs and that needs depend depending on their age. I am extremely dependable and reliable. I live in a beautiful area with many walking trails for great activities for the pups. I also have a Home that is safe for all kinds of animals in a loving atmosphere.
“Lindsey did an amazing job taking care of Archer for the past week! She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She took him on walks, made sure he had everything he needed, and even went out of her way to get him food when he needed it. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Archer and wanted him to feel right at home. I really appreciated the extra effort and peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”
“Nathan and Paula are awesome! They took great care of our 2 dogs, sent frequent photos of them having fun, and provided an awesome and worry-free experience. They were also super willing to take them on short notice, and were flexible with changes in our travel plans. We would highly recommend them for your pet care needs!”
“Katrina was great taking care of my dog cooper for a long weekend. Sent many pictures and videos. Cooper seemed to really love being with her. Would totally recommend and would hire her again in the future!”
About: I have grown up my whole life with dogs, and I am very comfortable around all types. I have volunteered at the Dane County Humane Society as an Adoption Counselor while in college, so I have undergone behavior training for many aspects of dog care. I am familiar with walking dogs on leases, with harnesses, using commands, as well as resource guarding, jumpy/mouthy/mounting behavior, shy/fearfulness, and escape artists. I only use positive reinforcement for training. I have an educational background in genetics and public health, and I am involved in my local religious community as well. I’ve lived in OC for about 3 years now, having moved from the Midwest. In my spare time I’m learning to crochet, and I love playing with my dog Pax, a chihuahua/pomeranian mix whom I’ve recently adopted. I work from home, so am around most of the day, and have a small fenced in patio for potty breaks between walks. I’m a fan of the local dog parks, and will bring your dog there with your permission. I work from home, so my dog gets a minimum of 3 walks around the neighborhood and we often go to a local dog park too after work. I’m rarely away from home for more than 4 hours at a time. My fenced in patio is open for potty breaks, but I usually do a minimum of 3 walks per day around my neighborhood. I’m also happy to bring them to dog parks for socialization. Since I have a dog myself, there will also be plenty of socialization at home.
“Finn’s stay at Patricia’s was great! Daily communications of how his day was and updates on his play/food/rest were provided. The stay was Patricia’s was fun, safe, and Finn made lots of new friends”
About: What sets me apart is the combination of meticulous, individualized care and real experience with reactive dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, comfort level, routines, and boundaries, and I’m attentive to the little details that help them feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I also love getting dogs outside for plenty of enrichment, whether that’s exploring the Back Bay, enjoying nature, going on walks, or simply having a fun adventure at their own pace. My goal is for every dog to have a safe, attentive environment and feel like they’re on their own little vacation. I work full time from home in OC, California. I have a fairly good size apartment and a large patio (almost small yard size) with access to lots of walking trails immediately behind my home. Your dog will be cared for as if they were my own Juno boy. I’m extremely detail-oriented when it comes to pet care, and safety is always my highest priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, medications, exercise needs, quirks, and comfort level so I can provide truly individualized care rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. In my home, I have a crate-trained dog and several separate rooms, along with gates that allow me to safely manage different spaces. This means I can comfortably accommodate more sensitive, shy, reactive, or simply more independent dogs who may need their own space or gradual introductions. I’m very mindful of interactions between pets and never assume that every dog wants the same level of socialization. Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I’m attentive to their environment, behavior, and wellbeing throughout the day. I want you to feel completely confident that your pet is not only getting plenty of love and attention, but is being cared for thoughtfully, safely, and responsibly while you’re away.
“Diana is absolutely amazing and so sweet. Our babies loved her and we know they did because they weren’t stressed at all when we picked them up. Usually after staying at dog hotels our dogs would be so uncomfortable and upset with us. With Diana they were so happy. Diana’s care was like home away from home with them. She checked in with us everyday. Highly recommend Diana if you want your pups to feel safe and at home. We will use her anytime we are away. She’s the best.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and responsibility I bring to every pet. 🐾 As both a mother and a pet mom, caring for others is already a huge part of my everyday life. I understand the importance of trust, patience, safety, routines, and attention to detail. Your pet will be cared for like part of my own family with plenty of love, playtime, and attention. I currently work part-time and remotely, which gives me the flexibility to be present and attentive to your pup’s needs throughout the day. 🐾 Whether it’s potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, walks, or simply some extra cuddles and companionship, I’m able to provide consistent care and attention while your pup is boarding with me. I have a cozy, secure space and two small furry friends of my own who are friendly and enjoy the company of other pets. 🐾 I also have young adult kids who are animal lovers, so your little critter will have plenty of extra love, attention, and helping hands during their stay. Your pet will truly be welcomed as part of our family! ❤️
“Both of my dogs absolutely loved their time at Danielle’s! Not only did she spoil them with lots of walks, playtime and doggie pupsicle treats but her dog Finley was so sweet and welcoming to my pups as well! The communication throughout the visit was stellar and got lots of cute pics! 10 out of 10 would recommend Danielle as your dog sitter and my fur babies will definitely be returning.”
“Laura was very accommodating for the overnite stays I needed, also sending messages / images from time to time to show how happy Mango was. And, Mango seemed to get along and have Much fun with any other dog that Laura was taking care of simultaneously as well!!! A big TY to Laura”

Incredibly kind, thoughtful, and attentive, and it’s clear how much he genuinely cares about the dogs in his care. Made sure my little dog received plenty of love, attention, and regular walks, and kept me updated throughout her stay, which gave me such peace of mind. Highly recommend.
Hyo and her boyfriend were simply the best!! The constant updates included photos, videos, and a very obviously happy doggo! Brookie is kind of a socially awkward corgi, but Hyo knew exactly what to do and how to make him open up. This is the first time he has boarded with a non family/friend, but Hyo has now become family to Brookie!
Our dog absolutely loves Kayla! She is so sweet and cared for our dog better than we do. Our dog got to go on lots of walks, runs, trips to the park and had lots of cuddle time. We were able to go out of town without worrying about our dog because she was having the time of her life with Kayla. I highly recommend her!!
Dawn was amazing! I dropped off an 18 week puppy! And four days later, I picked up a dog that walks by my side, knows to pee outside only! Dawn sent pictures, and took the time to share some incredible training advice which I’m using. She was caring, attentive and so conscientious. She even ordered a chewing toy for Honey will definitely return and can’t recommend highly enough. Ten Stars!!!
Mykah is so sweet, and we felt completely comfortable leaving Zero in her care! He was calm and content when we picked him up, which made us so happy! ❤️ Thank you so much for taking such great care of him! If it weren’t for you, Zero would’ve had to stay home in Utah. You made it possible for us to enjoy a day at Disneyland and have Zero here to enjoy the beach with us all week! We’re so grateful!! 🥰🐾
Deborah was wonderful as usual! This was the second time my dogs stayed over a week with Deborah. She and her husband are so sweet with the dogs and really incorporated the dogs into their family. Lucy went out on coffee and office runs. 😄 Kenzi was fussy about her food and pills at the beginning, but Deborah kept experimenting until she found something that worked. She's always super patient and loving with the dogs! Deborah was also super accommodating and kind when I mixed up the drop off time and created an overlap with another dog. My mistake - sorry again, Deborah! Thank you, Deborah, for welcoming the dogs back to your home and taking such good care of them again!
Shannon and her family were 11/10! They watched Gigi at their home for 4 days while we were traveling for a wedding and took such great care of her! They have a huge fenced in backyard for the dogs to play in and a lot of room indoors as well. I received many photo updates of Gigi during my time away and will definitely be going to Shannon for any future travel :)
Amerys did a great job overnight boarding my 3 year old Rhodesian Ridgeback for a long weekend. She was super fast communicating a last minute booking and accommodating of my dog who was in her heat cycle. She provided daily morning and evening updates on how she was doing, her eating habits and even potty details which was super helpful. Her place was welcoming and safe and my pup got along with her cats and dog.
Lily was absolutely amazing with Cooper while I was away! She kept me updated with calls and texts, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in great hands. I truly appreciate how caring, attentive, and communicative she was. Thank you, Lily, for taking such wonderful care of Cooper! I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her! Thank you Lily we will see you soon!:)
Lisa was amazing with Toby and Luna! We felt comfortable with her right away and she took such good care of them. She kept us updated with pictures and messages which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. The biggest thing we noticed was when we picked them up. Toby and Luna were super happy and lively! With other sitters we have picked them up before and they would be shaking, tired and looking like they just wanted to go home. This time they were completely different. They looked happy, relaxed and like they had a great time. Lisa also did a great job following all their special feeding needs and making sure they didnt get into each others food. We have never felt this relaxed leaving our dogs with anyone else. It was such a relief knowing they were being taken care of and loved. We will definitely be booking with Lisa again. Highly recommend her! ❤️🐾
Jeff & Keersi were absolutely amazing with our Toby! They took care of him for 12 days while we were away, and we couldn’t have felt more comfortable leaving him with them. They sent us pictures and updates every single day, which gave us so much peace of mind. Toby was so happy and clearly felt right at home with them. They’re wonderful people, great communicators, and created such a loving, comfortable home for him while we were gone.

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.
94% of sitters in Corona del Mar 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 Corona del Mar 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 Corona del Mar.
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 Corona del Mar. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Corona del Mar 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.
