About: I grew up in a house full of animals and pets and have grown to understand and love them fully and I hope to spread that love towards other animals! I can come take care of pets almost every day! I am a working Christian girl so Sundays I have church for an hour, and I just recently started a new job so far my hours are 10am-7pm Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays! I’m available afternoons on Thursdays and I’m available weekends! I believe that pets require an immense amount of attention and affection and I will always create a trusting bond with the pet owners and answer any questions the owners may have!
“Susan stepped in when another sitter cancelled my stay. She was very accommodating, attentive and caring with my Cavalier King Charles. Great backyard for running around! Wonderful one on one care, thanks Susan.”

“Lexi and her family treated our dog as their own, and they truly understand what it means to care for a dog. There was never a worry that Moose wouldn’t get adequate stimulation with the many walks and backyard time spent with this family. The most noticeable difference between Lexi and other sitters was Moose’s energy when we picked him up. He wasn’t full of anxious energy and he seemed like our normal pup. This gives us the peace of mind and then some for any future stays he has with this household.”

“Our pup Ranger had a great stay with Mila! He had a blast going on adventures and hanging out with Mila in her yard. We felt like he was in great hands while we were away and will definitely ask Mila to watch Ranger again when we head out of town. Thanks Mila!”
“Five star +++ experience. I almost hate to leave a review because we want them all to ourselves! Lori & Frank treated my dogs like their own — they showered them with love and attention and took exceptional care of them. They sent adorable pictures and kept me updated (without being annoying about it) while I was out of the country for 9 days. They have a lovely cozy dog-friendly home, and a very nice fully fenced yard. They are both super kind dog lovers and also responsible adults so you can feel comfortable leaving your beloved pooch or pooches in their care. Just the best.”

“So happy we found Dustin. Our somewhat anxious boy settled in quickly and it was evident that Dustin built a lovely connection with our Dexter. The grounds are amazing and so fun for the dogs to be able to run around freely. Will be booking again very soon!”


“Tammy and her family provided the perfect home away from home for my anxious dog! My vacation was considerably more relaxing than usual due to Tammy's expert care and frequent status reports and pictures. I'm so grateful I found Tammy!!! :)”

“Lillie was great! She was super easy to communicate with and let us come by for a meet and greet first. Baloo appreciated the AC in her house and seemed happy and tired when I picked him up. We would use Lillie again!”

“Ciana was a great mama to my puppy Tala! She made sure to learn about tala and sent me daily(sometimes more than once) updates/photos/videos. Will definitely use her services again! Thank you Ciana for taking good care of our puppy!”

“Mackenzie and her family were AMAZING. They took such good care of our pups. Both Lylla and Rocket have separation anxiety issues, and we knew they had been well-loved because they were so calm when we picked them up. We also loved the "Welcome Puppies" chalk drawing that Mackenzie's daughter drew for us. We would absolutely ask them to watch our dogs again!!”

“Katherine is absolutely amazing. Our 16 year old anxiety ridden Morkie spent 3 days and nights with her and every thing was great. Katherine only takes one pet at a time and really gave Delilah special attention including having her snuggle up with her at night and take her for nice long walks.”

“Steven was so kind and helpful. I had never used Rover before and I feel I was blessed to find him. He sent pictures anytime I checked in and clearly took great care of my dog Lewis. Perfect location for if you use the airport bus service. Got off the bus and picked my pup up in 10 minutes.”

“Heather and Calob were amazing! They watch our puppy for a long weekend and did a great job of keeping her occupied (which is hard for a puppy!). We would highly recommended them for any travel you’re doing, great folks!”


“Luis was very accommodating when I requested to meet at the park before my booking and when I needed to drop my dog off a little bit later. He was very easy to talk to, asked a lot of questions about my dog, her habits and what activities she enjoyed (running, hiking, etc) and how much activity she needed. He was very clear on what he needed me to bring for her, which I 100% appreciated! He was very good at providing me with daily updates (including pics and videos). His dog was very friendly and my dog had a lot of fun having a friend to play with. Definitely would book him again.”

About: I have had big dogs my whole life....taking care of them, walking them etc. Because I lost my big girl a year ago, and because of circumstances, I am not able to adopt yet, but would love to walk/take care of yours! I am dedicated to supporting dogs and their pet care needs. I am currently available 24/7 and am looking forward to helping all the owners and dogs! I currently have one rat terrier named Jake who is like 14-15 years old (?) but he gets along with everyone and is non-confrontational ;-)
“Shayla & Jacob were great communicators. They responded a timely manor. My puppies (5 months and just over a year) were well taken care of. We set up a meet and greet they took the time to listen to me and understand what my puppies needed they did not rush me at all I would definitely leave my puppies with them again. Not only are they lovely people but have a beautiful family”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - El Verano
Cristian and his wife were fabulous dog sitters. We know this because when we picked Axel up, he was happy, not at all stressed, and they told us that Axel was a very good boy. Our dog is on his best behavior when content and adequately exercised, so it seems everyone did well. Thanks!

Thank you Evan for taking such good care of Mochi while I went to a wedding in Sonoma for the weekend! Seeing her pictures and knowing she was in good hands made it easy to relax. I appreciate you giving her meds before I picked her up so she wasn’t carsick on the way home.

Jordan and Jeremy are truly the best! We feel so lucky to have found them. They take such great care of our dog, Luna, and their communication is amazing (sending photos and videos all the time). We joke that our dog is at summer camp when she is staying with Jordan & Jeremy — she has so much fun playing in there great backyard and with their adorable dogs & cats. It’s a win win for all!

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 El Verano 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 El Verano.
<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 El Verano 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.
