“Mollie was such a great dog sitter to Dexter , she gave me updates && sent me a lot of pictures. Highly recommend. Will definitely be rebooking. Thank you.”
“My fur baby Chika is very skiddish and can be unsociable at times. The moment Chika met Yvie, Chika wagged her tail and went right up to her. Yvie was very calm and patient with Chika. Upon return Chika was not stressed or anxious, she was excited like a lil kid that had a great time at Disneyland and couldn't wait to bark about it. 😊 Thank you Yvie for making my dog feel safe and comfortable, you are the best!! Chika will definitely be returning to your care.”
“Alexandra is the best of the best! She is a major dog lover and made us feel very comfortable while our baby Timber was spending time with her. We received daily pictures and updates, as well as ensured any of our special requests were met. Her home is clean and secure, which is a major plus! We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Shannon was absolutely wonderful with Nibbles! She watched her for 9 days in her home, and I’m so happy we found her. Drop-off and pick-up were super easy, and Shannon was very thorough about asking questions beforehand so she could make sure Nibbles was comfortable and knew her routine and preferences. She took such great care of her and made sure she was happy, well-fed, comfortable, and got lots of love and attention. I could tell Nibbles was in really good hands, as I received consistent updates/pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Shannon is such a sweetheart, and I’m extremely happy with the care she gave Nibbles. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Excellent! I have an older dog, very hard of hearing and doesn't see well. He also can't hold his bladder for more than four hours, and can sometimes get confused. Jenny was so good with him! Not everyone can take on the added responsibilities of an elderly pet, including cleaning up after accidents. I am so grateful for her understanding and patience.”
“Maria was so great! Really thoughtful and I can tell Lupo had a great time with her. She sent a lot of pictures keeping me updated and made me feel really comfortable leaving Lupo behind. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Elaine and her husband are great dog sitters and dog lovers. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my dog with them in the future again when I go out of town. They provided plenty of photos and videos everyday and gave extra care/ attention to my dog. Thank you again!”
About: I had a dog for over 10 years and after he sadly passed away, I realized that I still had a lot of love to give! I’m currently a stay at home mom who absolutely adores pets, so my schedule is completely up to what your pet needs and what their schedule is! I live in an upstairs apartment that has lots of space for play time but also has cozy spots for nap time! The apartment has a secured front balcony that can be blocked off at request.
“Teddy loved his week stay with Lauren!! We got daily pics and updates, so that we could rest assured and enjoy our vacation. And Koa is such a sweet dog and gets along so well with Teddy too. We definitely recommend Lauren.”
“Our dog Finn loved Shardae!! It was our first time leaving him and Shardae gave him the attention and love he needed. Also, she was very fast to respond to our request, asking questions, and giving me the opportunity to ask questions, to make sure she was a good fit for Finn. I will definitely call Shardae next time we leave town. Big Thanks!!”
“Lianna did a great job with Diesel and Taquito. She was able to meet me at car to assist in bringing the overnight items. I was invited in to meet the other dogs staying the night which allowed my dogs to settle in. She was transparent in what the flow would be for the stay and sent pics 2x a day. I would use her again! It was a great experience.”
“Jamila was a lifesaver! Another sitter canceled in the middle of my dog’s stay and Jamila immediately responded to my last minute request. I’m so grateful for her and Brolin seemed to easily get along with her too. So glad I found her. I highly recommend!”
“Jake was great! Very thoughtful and understanding the necessities of our dogs. Throughout the stay he provided photos and videos of our dogs having a great time !! I totally recommend Jake!”
“Merve was a fantastic cat sitter! I highly recommend her. She was very patient, kind, and caring as my anxious kitty took a few days to warm up and get used to his new settings. She took amazing care of my cat, was very easy to communicate with, and I am so grateful as this was the longest amount of time I was ever away from my cat (3 weeks). Thank you, Merve!”
About: I've always embraced the fact that I've always had such an innate sense to relate to animals and being a pet caregiver is the best way to feed our souls I'm a freelance consultant so my schedule is flexible & can pivot to whatever is the priority at the time. My goal is to care for your pet as well as I would care for mine I have been a pet owner for the past 25 years & have an intuitive sense of what my dogs or cats need & want. I would, of course, use those senses & experience to care for your fur babies.
“Holly treated our Lucy with just as much love and affection as we would. When I read Holly’s profile, I knew instantly that this is someone who I would trust to watch our pets because her love for dogs was very clear. During Lucy’s stay with Holly, she sent me photo updates and even let Lucy snuggle up to her in bed. This just reaffirmed everything I read in Holly’s profile and her love for dogs. We would love to book her again in the future!”
“I'm always hesitant about leaving my dogs with someone else. Especially for long periods of time. I recently went on my honeymoon and needed someone to take care of both my dogs for 7 days. After reading several reviews I decided to hire Ronald and I'm glad I did. His house is literally set up to take care of dogs. He replies to messages very fast and sends pictures every day. When I returned to pick up my dogs they were very happy and very tired. Always a good sign. I will use Ronald again in the future and highly recommend him for your doggie boarding needs.”

Mollie was absolutely wonderful with Skittles! ❤️ She took such great care of my dog and made sure he felt comfortable, happy, and loved while I was away. Her son was also so caring and sweet with Skittles—you could really tell how much he loved having him around. 🐶💕 I felt completely at ease knowing Skittles was in such a loving home. I highly recommend Mollie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pet. Thank you so much, Mollie and family! 🥰
I’m a returning happy customer, and once again, I had a great experience! Dalila was wonderful with my dog, and I’m grateful for her care and attention. It’s always a relief knowing my dog is in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to booking with her again!
Jeimy watched our dog Yeti for a few days while we were out of town, and she was fantastic! We were a bit nervous being gone for a week, but Jeimy made sure Yeti was in such good hands. She sent us wonderful daily photo updates and made sure Yeti got plenty of walks and attention. We are so happy to have found Jeimy and will definitely look her up for all our future vacations!
I’m so grateful and thankful for Marby! This is the first time I used rover, and she made it a really sweet experience. She sent me SOOOO many pictures and sweet check in many messages. I’m so glad that my puppy was well taken care of all weekend, received all the cuddles, kisses, plenty of walks and playing time with his toys. He even made a few friends. Marby was so sweet. My puppy instantly loved her because of her energy. I would definitely recommend Marby 💕
Katherine and John have been amazing at caring for our little fur baby! My partner and I have been caring for Mochi since she was 8 weeks old and this is only our second time leaving our baby with someone else. We were so worried about how she would react and whether she would eat, sleep, and play well. Turns out she did exceptionally well. We received daily pictures and updates about Mochi. Katherine made Mochi look so cute in every picture. Mochi came back to us looking very happy and refreshed. Mochi also came back to us much lighter than which was great because we were trying to help her to lose some weight. Overall, we are so pleased with our experience with Katherine and John. They are exceptional dog sitters and I would book with them over and over again! 100% highly recommend!
I can't say enough great things about Rebecca and Donald! They helped out in an emergency where I was already out of town and blessed our pup with so much love and care. Mutilple updates daily and made him feel right at home and helped put me at ease knowing he was in such good and loving hands. I would happily book them anytime in the future, absolute 10/10 people ❤️
Wonderful experience! I needed someone to care for my two senior dogs at the last minute, and I’m so grateful they were able to accommodate. Joshua and wife were friendly, responsive, and made me feel comfortable leaving my dogs in their care. I truly appreciated their flexibility, the updates and knew the dogs were in great hands. I look forward to using them again, highly recommended!
Nathaniel did an amazing job taking care of Dino and Frank while we were on vacation for a week. Since we were traveling out of the country, it was especially important to have someone dependable and responsive, and Nathaniel was both. He was very accommodating and available whenever needed. He kept us updated throughout the week and frequently sent photos of our guys, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely use Nathaniel again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to look after their pets. Thanks again, Nathaniel, for taking such great care of Dino and Frank!! 🐾❤️
My fur baby Chika is very skiddish and can be unsociable at times. The moment Chika met Yvie, Chika wagged her tail and went right up to her. Yvie was very calm and patient with Chika. Upon return Chika was not stressed or anxious, she was excited like a lil kid that had a great time at Disneyland and couldn't wait to bark about it. 😊 Thank you Yvie for making my dog feel safe and comfortable, you are the best!! Chika will definitely be returning to your care.
Allison was great with our two dogs! We had another sitter cancel on short notice due to an injury and we are so glad we found her at the right time. She took her time to understand each dog’s needs and was awesome about keeping us updated. I loved the photos, videos, and daily updates. She was great at also teaching them different tricks which was a bonus! We appreciate the love and care she put into caring for our fur babies. Thank you!
Murphy had so much fun staying over with Alex and Fred! We could tell she was very comfortable with Alex and that she’d be in great hands right after our meet and greet. Fred also has a great temperament and was such a sweet buddy for Murph! Alex was communicative, flexible, and very trustworthy. We’re looking forward to having Murphy stay with them 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 Cota 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 Cota.
<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 Cota 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.
