“Elyssa did a great job caring for our Yorkshire Terrier Tucker. He got along great with their dog and young kids. She sent lots of pictures and text. You could tell he was well taken care of. I highly recommend her and will definitely keep going with her in the future.”

“Rex had such a fun time with MJ during his first stay, I booked him again for a weekend stay while I headed out of town. MJ was great like last time, very professional and trustworthy. His yard gives Rex (and other dogs) a great opportunity to run around and stretch his legs or just lay in the shade of the large trees. MJ has been very reliable and I highly recommend for dog (large or small). Thanks MJ!”
“Jennifer is amazing and treats your pet like a member of the family! She loves and understands dogs. I know my Cooper is loved and well cared for when she is with Jennifer. I highly recommend her!”
“Was able to accommodate a last minute request. My dog was calm and nothing was amiss (medical needs dog). Great communication! 2nd time I’ve used Audra and will continue to use for further boarding stays :-)”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can trust. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and treat every pet like family. I enjoy giving pets plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, and a comfortable environment while keeping their normal routines as consistent as possible. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of time, attention, and care to the pets staying with me. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to accommodate your pup’s individual routine and needs. Our home sits on 3 acres, including approximately 1 acre of fully fenced backyard space where dogs can safely enjoy plenty of room to play and explore. We also have a friendly Golden Retriever who loves having four-legged friends around! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a safe, welcoming home environment with plenty of supervised outdoor time. Our property includes approximately 1 acre of fully fenced backyard space where dogs can safely play and explore. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, exercise preferences, and any special instructions you provide. I also have a friendly Golden Retriever who enjoys having canine companions, and I make sure all interactions are safe and appropriate for each dog’s personality and comfort level. For dogs who need additional exercise, I can provide supervised off-leash play in the fenced yard as well as leashed walks around the property. I take the time to get to know each pet individually so they can feel comfortable, secure, and at home during their stay.
“My 1st time using the Rover app. I wanted someone close by and after looking at others I went with Manuel G. He kept me informed of my dogs progress and texted pictures. Manuel followed my feeding schedule each day she was there. My dog is very laid back and chills on the floor or couch. This past 4th of July he kept my dog calm when she would get scared of the fireworks around the neighborhood. When I picked up my dog she acted the same way as if she were home. I recommend Manuel G to watch your pets. I will rebook with him again when I go on another trip because I know my dog will be well taken care of.”
“Baja had a great timing staying with Iris and playing with her dog Cody! I felt very comfortable leaving Baja in Iris’s care and received great updates each day about Baja’s stay.”
“This review is a little tardy but well worth writing. Like most fur babies owners we are overly concerned with the wellbeing and safety of our babies. Farin had our babies this past weekend and she delivered what she promised. Photos multiple times during the day were sent to us. I could tell my babies were being well taken care and having fun! They came home happy and exhausted from their little vacation away from us. I highly recommend Farin to provide care for your fur babies!!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I’m glad I chose Brittney. She did a wonderful job easing all my worries and took great care of my pup. Communication was great and I received frequent updates/pictures. Most importantly she was patient and took the time to learn my pup. I will 100% be a returning customer!!”
About: Hi, I’m Macy I’m currently a student at Clovis Community and have a genuine love for animals. I take pride in providing dependable, attentive care for every pet I meet. Over the past few months, I’ve had the opportunity to care for a variety of dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines, and I truly enjoy getting to know each one. Whether your dog loves long trail walks, relaxing neighborhood strolls, or plenty of time to sniff and explore, I’ll make sure they get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I always prioritize safety, patience, and making every walk enjoyable and stress-free. I grew up around both dogs and cats and currently have a border collie, yorkie, and a golden doodle, so I understand how important consistency and trust are. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always follow your instructions to help them feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. Communication is important to me, so after every walk or visit, I send detailed updates and photos so you know exactly how your pet is doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet has a fun, safe, and positive experience. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I’m currently working two other part time jobs, I work one on weekends so I won’t be available weekends, durning the week I do nannying but it’s not a set schedule so feel free to reach out and ask if I’m available and I’ll get back to you asap! I have a fenced back yard and plenty of backyard for your dogs to run around in, I also have a little lounge area for the dogs, I have 3 dogs myself, a yorkie, golden doodle, and a border collie, all VERY VERY friendly and wouldn’t hurt a fly! Since it’s getting really hot around summer time, don’t worry, I have tons and tons of water jugs specifically for the dogs all around the house !
“Jassleen did an amazing job watching our two dogs for several days! We could tell from the very start that they were in good hands! She provided many updates and kept a close eye on how often and how much they ate, adjusting as necessary. Jassleen helped us out big time by being available to watch our dogs last-minute, and then being willing to keep them longer for us because we ended up getting home later than expected! She’s awesome and we fully recommend her.”
“Lisa is phenomenal! She made sure my dog Hashbrown was well taken care of from the moment he arrived at her house till the moment he got picked up! She stayed on top of his potty, feeding, and play time. I got countless updates, photos, and videos during Hashbrown’s stay with Lisa. Hashbrown had an amazing stay with Lisa, and I highly recommend and would book with her again!”
About: 🌟 What Sets Me Apart: Attentive, Heat-Conscious Care & Pug-Approved HospitalityMy pet care experience is rooted deeply in the daily love and specialized care I provide for my own beloved pug, Benito, who is turning four this October! Raising a flat-faced breed in Fresno has given me critical, hands-on experience in keeping dogs safe, happy, and healthy. Flat-Faced & Heat-Sensitive Care: I am highly experienced in monitoring breathing, energy levels, and heat exhaustion. Bilingual & Smart Communication: Benito is fully bilingual, understanding commands in both English and Spanish! Food-Motivated Positive Reinforcement: Benito is highly food-motivated and loves his tricks. I excel at using pet-safe treats, positive praise, and structured rewards to keep guest dogs feeling confident, comfortable, and motivated in my home. A Built-In Best Friend: Benito is incredibly friendly and welcoming. He provides a calm, low-stress environment for guest dogs who need a gentle companion to lounge with while I study. 📅 How Pet Care Fits Into My RoutineBecause I study from home full-time, my schedule is incredibly stable, flexible, and entirely open for pet care! Your furry friend will never be left alone for long periods and will receive constant companionship throughout the day. My routine revolves around my own pug, Benito, and keeping him safe from the intense Fresno summer heat. Your pet will seamlessly join our daily routine: Morning Exercise: We wake up early to catch the coolest part of the day, heading out for morning walks before the pavement heats up. Daytime Study Buddies: During the scorching mid-day hours, your dog will relax inside a fully air-conditioned home with Benito and me. They can lounge on the cool floors right next to my desk while I study. Evening Wind-Down: Once the sun goes down and temperatures dip, we head out for final evening walks and backyard potty breaks before settling in for a quiet night. As a dedicated pet caregiver, your dog's safety and emotional well-being are my absolute top priorities. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member behind, which is why I focus on structured care, constant communication, and a secure environment.
“Enslee provided great loving care for Champ!! She is very friendly and is very good with animals. She responds to messages very quickly and she is very flexible with drop off and pick up times. We will definitely use her services again! Thank you”
“Our first time using this site to find a sitter for our furry baby was nerve racking. I have came across Melissa profile and sent her a message. She responded promptly and is very understanding with all of my concerns and willing to meet up at a doggie park so that she can introduce her and her furry babies. It was a success. Melissa was very interactive and observant of Jane and other dogs behaviors at the park. Throughout Jane stay, Melissa had kept me updates on how Jane was doing. Sent me pictures and texted me back right away when checking up on Jane. I will be using her again.”
“Wonderful sitter, took many pics and videos of our boy and even brushed his thick crazy fur out for us. Had constant access to outside and walked him often. Responded quickly! He seemed very happy when he came home!”
“Kimmie and Victor took excellent care of our rambunctious and sweet girl, Maya. They have cared for Maya twice now, and through pictures and Maya’s behavior afterwards, I know she’s having a great time! We did a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure Maya got along well with their dogs, and fortunately, they did. I loved seeing videos of all the dogs chasing each other around their large yard. Looking forward to booking with them again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Elk
We were worried about leaving our rescue for the first time because we thought she might think she was left. We were happily surprised that she enjoyed her stay. Becky texted us during our stay which made us feel so much better about leaving her. I’m not sure she would rather have stayed permanently with Becky! We definitely will use her again.
Becky took such great care of Rex while we went out of town for a week. Her communication was excellent, keeping us updated with messages on how he was doing and that all was well. Rex was clearly happy and relaxed when we picked him up which speaks volumes to the care and attention he received from Becky and James while we were away. Our thanks to you both for a wonderful experience for Rex (and us). I highly recommend Becky for your boarding needs.
This was our dog’s first time with a sitter, and they were absolutely great. They took the time to figure out his needs, made him feel comfortable, and kept us updated the whole time. Communication was excellent, and we felt confident knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!

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 Elk 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 Elk.
<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 Elk 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.
