“Marion was wonderful with our two small dogs (Brie and Kuzco). It was our wedding weekend (annd we traveled from the East Bay) and she was flexible to coordinate the drop off with a family friend since we were busy. Our pups stayed with her two doggies and some other older dogs and they all got along splendidly, we also received daily photo updates to know how they were getting along and it was reassuring. Our pups seemed so happy when we picked them up and if we ever need a dog sitter in the Monterey/Carmel area, we would definitely rebook!!”
“Jesse is very kind, responsive, and accommodating. He and his son walked my dog several times over the course of the day and provided regular updates. My dog, who trends anxious, was calm upon pickup. Would book again.”
“Carmen was absolutely outstanding! Her communication was excellent throughout, and it was clear that Finn was in great hands. He came back so happy, which speaks volumes about the care and attention she gave him. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Carmen to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter!”
“Alexis is great! She watched our little old lady chihuahua, Emma, while we were out of the country. I don’t normally take long trips so I was a little nervous, but Alexis helped me feel very comfortable. Emma had lots of attention, treats, and sunshine!”
“Donna was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of FiFi and kept me updated the whole time, which gave me real peace of mind. You can tell she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. FiFi came home happy, calm, and well cared for. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter — highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and caring!”
About: My experience growing up with dogs, and working as a Vet tech for 3.5 years gives me the knowledge and expertise to care for you pets as if they are my own! I’m currently in between jobs as a Vet tech, and just recently moved to the Seaside/Monterey area. I’m looking to make pet care my full time job again if at all possible! I have a 2 year old lab/pointer mix at home named Diesel. He is high energy, emotional, but full of love! He loves to explore and go on long walk. I have 2 cats named Asher and Prada, they are a 3 year old bonded pair, but they tend to like their space, and stay in their own room.
“Helen took great care of my almost 10 week kitten! I was a little nervous since he was so young but I could tell she (and her family) loved him like their own for the week she watched him. She sent me photos and videos every day, which was awesome too.”
“Athena opened up her home to Chestnut on a short notice. Our pup had enough room to walk about and sniff. Drop off ad pick up were easy and her communication was quick. Definitely will be utilizing her services again”
About: Easy going and adaptable dog walker with experience! Animal lover and grad student wanting to work on the side! Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I am currently a full time graduate student which consists of a pretty busy schedule during the week but leaves the weekends very open. Also, on breaks, usually consisting of 4-6 weeks at a time, my schedule is wide open to accommodate a variety of dog walking needs.

When dog sitting or walking, I always try to be aware and alert during social situations and pay attention to the needs of your dog while making sure they can get their energy out!

“I felt comfortable leaving my big guy with Rosita. We did a meet and greet at first so I could see if it was a good fit. She has a spacious yard and took him for long walks. She was very attentive and asked questions to make sure he was well cared for. She updated me during the day with photos and videos. I would totally book with her again and recommend her to anyone! Thank you!!”
“This was my first time ever leaving my dog, and Gabriel made this so much easier. My dog, Mr.Bean has separation anxiety and needs to be around humans. Gabriel updated me on how Mr.Bean was doing daily, with pictures and videos! I had to extend the visit last minute and Gabriel was open to it. Mr.Bean was relaxing and seemed to happy, and I was at ease. I couldn't thank Gabriel enough.”
“Janessa was amazing with my little fur son! I have never left him alone for more than 4 hours at home let alone with someone I just met for a few night stay! 😣 BUT, Janessa and Nalla were so attentive to my boy and his needy mom (me😬). I got multiple updates, pictures, videos, FaceTimes, as well as me constantly checking in. She even got him to go from sitting at the door waiting for us to come back, to listening to commands for a treat❤️ She took him out for multiple walks and even got him to eat after the first day of not eating! I had a meat and greet with Janessa, Nalla, max and myself and I’m so glad I did. When I dropped off Max for his actual stay, he was a bit more ok and curious of the space. Nalla is so sweet and just wanted to play. Such a sweetheart! Thank you so much Janessa for putting this over protective mom at ease even if max wasn’t sure at first. I will definitely rebook for overnights and possibly days to help max be more comfortable and able to play with Nalla❤️❤️❤️❤️”

Janet was such a gem to find to watch my pup while I was gone! I immediately felt comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care and knew that I would have nothing to worry about while I was gone. And the best part is that Kona warmed up to her right away! That melted the last of any stress I had about leaving. Kona was even sad to leave, it was so sweet. 10/10 will book again!
Riley is an absolutely amazing dog sitter! He treated our dog, Lisa, like his own, and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after her. He always kept us updated with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear how much Riley and his wife genuinely care about animals, and Lisa absolutely loves them both. They are truly wonderful people with big hearts, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found them.
Isabel is THE best! We honestly felt like we left Nala at a luxury resort for the weekend! Isabel communicates so well, goes above and beyond, and sent the sweetest pictures along the way. She took Nala on fun outings, and we were able to completely relax knowing she was being so loved and cared for. We couldn’t recommend Isabel more!
We had a two week vacation to Hawaii planned with our family but had never left our dog overnight with anyone outside the family. We were concerned as to how this would work out but Yessica helped Bailey become comfortable with a few day visits and one overnight before the big trip. We couldn’t have been more pleased. We received numerous photos and videos letting us know how happy Bailey was in her temporary home. The nice fenced yard and darling little girls all made the stay a success. Many, many heartfelt thanks!!
Carol took wonderful care of my Golden Retriever, Haley, while I was away. Haley stayed in Carol’s home, and I had complete peace of mind knowing she was being well taken care of. Carol provided regular updates and photos, which I really appreciated. When I picked Haley up, she was relaxed and content. Carol is kind and reliable, I would absolutely trust her with Haley again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter.
This was my second time using Rover so there’s still some hesitation on my part. However, Kalikonani was amazing! I have a senior dog so knowing that she had a senior pup of her own, made me feel relieved that she’d understand my dog. She provided pics, updates, and was a great communicator. I definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again in the future :)
Absolutely the best stay! My little buddy was pampered, treated and loved, I had a hard time getting him back into the car after I got back, He got lots of walks, naps and attention. He even got a bath. It’s hard for me to leave him but it feels like he’s getting a vacation every time he gets to stay with Jehan!!!

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 Del Rey Oaks 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 Del Rey Oaks 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 Del Rey Oaks.
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 Del Rey Oaks. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 Del Rey Oaks 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.
