“My Siberian Husky came back very happy and tired from a fun full day! I really appreciated that he got a long walk first thing and had company and play time all day in a safe, clean house. Really gave me peace of mind and helped me out with my after-work evening errands to have a calm tired dog.”
About: Experience with All Temperaments Daily Photo & Video Updates: You’ll always know your pet is safe and happy Genuine animal lover and careful n caring Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I usually do sittings when I’m not busy with work or have other things going on. I always make time out of my day to take my pets out for a walk morning or night they seem to enjoy it a lot At home, I care for my pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment that meets both their physical and emotional needs. I stick to consistent routines for feeding, walks, and playtime, because I know structure helps them feel secure.
About: I have two babies boys myself: a corgi and a mini goldendoodle, and have been sitting dogs for friends and others. I know how to take care of dogs, not just feeding and walking them, but also genuinely caring for them, taking them out for fun, playing with them and mental development. On my wfh days I take dogs out for a walk around lunchtime, park playtime before dinner, and play with them throughout the day during my breaks from work! I have a spacious house with fenced backyard, two dogs to keep your baby company. I have experience taking care of up to 4 dogs at the same time, managing conflicts, supervising play and treats. Dogs are allowed anywhere in our house - couch, bed, office, backyard, chairs, bench, wherever they’re comfortable!
About: I have had my baby leo(maltipoo) for 8 years. I love dogs and take great care of them. Dont worry about your fog if you are leaving him/ her with me. I can train them, take care of them and surely will send you pictures when you are away. I have emergency numbers of vet too in case your pet needs one. I work from home so I am at home. I love the fur babies around me and have got plenty of time to play with them. I have a fur baby of my own to give your baby company. I can crate your baby if you want me to. I also can take care of small babies and train then to do a few actions.
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since childhood. Growing up we always had dogs and cats. As an adult I currently have a beautiful senior cat, a senior yorkie, 2 pugs, and a chihuahua. I have a huge heart and am big into animal rescue. I'm very good at dispensing medication to both cats and dogs. I have even become skilled at giving subcutaneous fluids to cats. When I watch your fur baby you can be sure that I will go above and beyond to make them feel loved while you are away. I send regular check ins and photos so you can have peace of mind when you leave your dog in my care. Right now pet care is my full time job. I have animals of my own so during the day I will of course be checking in on them as well. I sit small dogs, puppies or kittens only in my home. Any other small animals are negotiable. Please keep in mind I have animals of my own so if your pet is not good around other animals they can’t come here for boarding or day care.
“Grace is wonderful! She clearly understands the world of pets 🐶. She completely understood my dog’s personality and knew exactly how to work with him. She welcomed him into her home as if it was his own. She sent several pictures and updates of our dog hanging out with his new friends 🐾. She took him on walks and provided a detailed activity report upon pick-up. She even accommodated a last-minute change with no problem. We will definitely visit Grace again!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Oreo received! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he was in great hands. The updates and photos throughout the day gave me so much peace of mind, and Oreo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Thank you for treating him like family — we’ll definitely book again!”
“Gareth was great. He was able to accommodate a last minute booking. During Boots’ stay Gareth provided updates and photos, great communication! Would book with Gareth again and definitely recommend.”
“Leena is very nice and her home is setup perfectly to watch your fur babies. Her dog Prince is a sweet boy too. She provides walks, updates, pictures, and everything you can ask for from a sitter.”
About: Have a 6 year old Cattle dog myself, a well mannered and friendly pup to play with yours during the stay! I pay very close attention to pets needs, and love keeping them happy with entertaining play, walks, and healthy food. Currently work from home full time but take frequent breaks throughout the day to tend to pets, to feed them, play with them and let them run around in the yard, or take for a walk. I have a single family home with a secure fenced yard. Your pup will always be in a secure location or on a leash during a walk. I never let dogs off-leash on a walk even if their recall can be trusted.
“Highly recommend Dylan! He’s local, super reliable, and great with my puppy, Olivia. He has two small dogs that Olivia absolutely loved playing with, which made her experience even better. It’s great to find a sitter where your pet gets both personal attention and social time.”
About: I provide a loving, safe, and comfortable home where your dog will be treated like family. Expect plenty of belly rubs, ear scratches, playtime, walks, and lots of one-on-one attention. My Goldendoodle, CoCo, is friendly, well-socialized, and loves having doggy guests to play and relax with. I am home full-time, which allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. Your pet will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and affection rather than being left alone for long periods. I have a flexible schedule and can easily incorporate walks, feeding routines, medication administration (if needed), and one-on-one attention into my day. Whether your pet enjoys active play or simply relaxing nearby, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you're away. I have a fenced backyard, with lots of space for the pets to lounge, run around inside or out in a caring and safe environment
“We had a great experience! Communication was excellent, and we really appreciated all the pictures and updates throughout the day. It was so reassuring to see Henry looking happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We’ll definitely be coming back!”
About: I had a brother who loved to bring animals home which I had to take care of. Now I have two daughters who love to take care of dogs , cats and other animals. I’m working part time at home so I have more time to play with your pets when I’m on break. I love to play with and to care for animals I have a home with a fence so they can pace around my yard freely without escaping. I don’t have many harsh rules for animals in my house so they can move anywhere they want any time .
About: I grew up with dogs and now I have one and foster five so far from VHS. I would also like the best care when I’m away. I would love to meet your dog and if you’d like, they can play with mine for some good old socialization, fun and exercise! I work from home but go in the office every Tuesdays. I go on daily walks twice a day and I am very mindful of any pets needs. I live in an apartment with my friendly dog. We have a lot of space and they can share the collection of dog beds we have but I can also set up your crate if needed. In your home, I’m very mindful of where I am and what I touch. I will leave it as is or better than how I found it if needed be. I will make sure to keep an eye on your while I am there. I can bring my dog if you’d like me to tire your dog out or simply play. If your dog needs a play date, let me know, I can bring him too!
“Yoshi had another great stay overnight with Benjamin and Qiyun! Really appreciate all the updates throughout the day and how very attentive they are with Yoshi! Amazing care and communication, thank you!”
About: Hello!!! My husband and I have had a cat since 2016 and a dog since 2020. My husband is 6’3” and 200 lbs and we’ve both had a ton of experience with our giant chaotic golden, so we are definitely comfortable with big doggos! Additionally, I’ve walked and taken care of my friends’ dogs (of all sizes) periodically over the past decade when they were on vacation. I’m very conscientious of walking a dog in a public environment and prioritizing the pupper’s needs :) I’m available after 6:30pm most weekdays and frequently on weekends. I own a dog and cat myself (their names are Simba and Willis, respectively) and have been taking care of them constantly for many years now. I’m quite familiar with pets in general and nothing would give me a greater joy than getting to spend time with more animals day after day! I will absolutely love your pet :) My husband works from home, and I go into the office 3 times a week. Our house has a fenced backyard and we take our dog out to parks all the time! I have a friendly dog and cat that can keep your furry baby comfortable and happy. I love animals very much and will dote on them lots!

Penny had a wonderful time at Clara's house with her adorable dog Diego! Clara is kind, caring, and very attentive. She kept us updated with photos/messages and took great care of Penny. We really appreciated how comfortable and loved she made her feel. We would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again!
This is the second time I've left my baby girl with Sunayana, and I couldn't be more impressed or more grateful for finding her! She takes care of my pup as I would. She's gentle and caring, and her kids even pitch in playing games and making the days a treat for my doggo. She is so easy to communicate with and has been great with my schedule. And her home is a true respite. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Rachna has a lot of love for animals. She was very kind and patient to Luma, even when he exhibited anxious barking and whining continuously as it was only his second time with a daycare pet sitter. Although, I had to pick up Luma earlier, I really appreciated Rachna communicating with me and genuinely showed concern for his anxiousness. Hope it works out next time when Luma gets more used to daycare.
April is super kind and accommodating. Luma came back home very happy and I'm very happy to have found her. She provided ample of pictures of her interaction with Luma which definitely gave me great peace of mind as Luma is a 9-month puppy experiencing his very first daycare session. I will definitely be requesting her again!
Continue to be so appreciative of Carolyn. She responded to a last minute request for all day care when we were really in a pinch. I was able to rest easy while our dog had an incredibly fun day. He is always so over the moon to see her. As a pet parent, it's so reassuring to see her true love and devotion for animals. Thank you again!!
Our pup’s first day staying with Dyan and her family. He sure seemed to have a good time. Dyan sent several pics and videos of Kitsu on a walk and playing with her kids. It was a “get to know each other” day. He’s going to stay with them again next week while we’re away. Dyan is great with communication and following whatever requests we had for Kitsu.

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 Dougherty 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.

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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
