“Ariana was so friendly and welcoming. She took the time to get to know my cats and allowed them to become confortable in her house. She sent me daily updates and pictures or videos to show me their daily activities of mischief. I completely loved the experience and would book her again for future vacations!”
“They went above and beyond in taking care of our Tinkerbell, a senior german shepherd with hip problems. They updated us on how she was doing and sent us pictures daily.”
“Darlene took great care and attention to my big big pups. It's not easy taking care of two large dogs, but Darlene did it with ease. She gave them all the affection and attention they wanted along with regular walks and plenty of play time. She was always great about communicating by providing updates throughout the day along with pictures. Will definitely use her services again.”
“My first time using Rover and was very pleased. Angela was caring and very nice. The home was well kept and cosy for our dog. Will be using again and definitely recommend Angela”
“I would highly recommend Adrienne! She was kind enough to meet us prior to booking and was very accommodating. Adrienne took great care of our two rambunctious pugs, sent a photo and video update, and was super flexible about drop-off and pick-up times. Our dogs came home exhausted from their weekend of fun.”
“Janice was an excellent sitter. My dog had a an unforeseen medical issue and Janice volunteered to take my dog to the veterinary clinic which was above and beyond expectations. Janice sent updates throughout the days my dog was in her care via pictures and short videos. I highly recommend Janice.”
“This was Sierra’s first time with Greg—she is usually a little anxious in new situations but settled in very quickly with him. He understands dogs and he knew exactly how to make Sierra comfortable and at ease. He sent us multiple photos every day and updated us frequently. We were able to enjoy our trip with no worries about how she was getting along. We’ll definitely book Greg again!”
“Laura took such good care of my cat Shiny and made all the accommodations she needed. She even checked in and sent me a couple updates with photos. Thank you Laura for making my vacation worry free!”
“My dog Kee Kee is 14 and deaf and I was so worried to leave her. I met with Julie and just felt she would be the right person to leave Kee Kee with. We also did an hour visit one day before leaving to make sure it would be a good match. Julie sent me pictures of Kee Kee everyday to let me know how she was doing. When I picked her up she was happy and I knew she had been well cared for. Julie was the best and I strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving person and home to leave their precious fur family member with.”
“This is the first time that I've used Johnna, and all have to say is the cats warmed up to her immediately. Is she a pet whisperer? Everything went smoothly and she did everything I asked. She cleaned up litter messes and took it out to our outside garbage can so there was no litter smells when we got home. She spent time playing with them and even got my anxious cat to warm up to her. Definitely recommend her!”
“Kendra is the best! She is wonderful with our goldendoodle Jessie. I never have to worry about our girl while she is in Kendra's care. Shout out to Chico who is also great host and friend who always makes Jessie feel welcomed!”
“Nancy was perfect! I didn’t worry or fret about my dog’s well being and had a stress free night out away! It was our first time being separated over night. He did great, largely, I’m sure because of Nancy ! He will be staying with her again for sure.”
“Fermen and Sammy did a great job watching our Figgy! They sent pictures and video throughout the day. We appreciate how responsive they were to all of our questions. Their pups are very sweet too! We’re very happy to have found them!”
“Erin and Devin took such amazing care of our dog, Kody, while we were away. Kody is usually pretty anxious, so we’re always a bit nervous leaving him—but he absolutely loved being with them. It was clear from the updates that he felt comfortable, happy, and right at home. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation stress-free, which means everything. We’re so grateful to have found Erin and Devin and wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Kody again. Highly recommend!”
“Maryse was so amazing!! She was very responsive and took such good care of my dog with some specific requirements. She sent lots of updates and really treated her as her own :)”
“We had such an amazing experience with Olesia and her husband! They took incredible care of GG and treated him like their own. Their updates were thoughtful and consistent, and it was so clear how much they genuinely cared for him. GG can be particular, but he warmed up immediately- which says everything! We came home to a happy, relaxed cat, and that peace of mind is priceless. We’ll absolutely book with them again. Highly recommend Olesia! ♥️”
“Andrea took great care of my dog, Loki, during his stay from July 30 to August 3. She kept me updated with messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Loki was well cared for, and I really appreciated the attention and care she gave him. Andrea was reliable, communicative, and made the entire experience stress-free. I felt confident that Loki was in good hands, and he came home happy and well taken care of. I would definitely book with Andrea again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. My dad was a dog trainer, although I am not super specialized or advanced in my training techniques - I firmly believing in training, queues, patience and love rather than control. I will care for your babies like they are my own. I have experience dealing with shy/anxious pets to friendly/high energy. I make an effort to go above and beyond to make sure your pets are well taken care of and safe <3 Open to meet ups first or chatting on the phone to get acquainted and ensure alignment. I do a lot of free-lance, part-time work and do not do much most weekends, so I will have a lot of time to provide care and walks throughout the day. I am a very active person so I do not have trouble keeping up and staying moving. Open to recurring scheduling for the next 4 weeks. I have a fenced yard, garage area, and plenty of open space for fur babies to run around. I know a good amount of walking routes as well. I am open to coming into your space, and making sure the pet is feeling comfortable and at home. Dog-walking is my speciality, and I will do my best to ensure the best care is provided, as well as ensuring appropriate leash behavior! For pet-sitting, my greatest focus is ensuring enough walks and movement and interaction throughout the day.

Nancy is a fantastic sitter! She is so attentive and took such great care of Frankie. It was our first time using her services and she made sure that not only I, but my dog, felt comfortable before the stay and during the entirety of it. She’s on top of her communication and I loved seeing how well cared for Frankie was while we were gone. Will definitely work with her again in the future. Thank you, Nancy!
It’s always such a wonderful experience having Nadya watch Oliver! You can tell the whole family really love dogs and Oliver is always so excited to see them! The last stay was for 4 days and Oliver was taken on very long walks in the park every day for multiple times a day. Nadya is reliable, sweet and lovely! Highly recommend!
Inger watched our girl Maple while we were away getting married, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for her! We were a little nervous about trusting someone with Maple during such an important weekend, but from the moment we met Inger, she made us feel completely comfortable. She was so warm and welcoming, and we immediately knew Maple was going to feel right at home with her. We especially appreciated the undivided attention and love she gave Maple, as well as the sweet pictures she sent us while we were away. Inger was also incredibly thoughtful about knowing we were busy with our wedding and didn’t want to overwhelm us with updates. She made sure to get an emergency contact ahead of time just in case she needed anything, which gave us even more peace of mind. We will definitely book again in the future!
Josue looked after Stone for a week while we were having a trip. We have a meet and greet first before the boarding begins. Josue and his wife are very nice and sent me updates almost everyday. Stone like being there and we definitely would rebook again when future needs arises. Thank you.
Yasmith & Jay are a lovely couple! They communicated and sent pictures often and we could tell our dog was getting spoiled! They were extremely flexible with our last-minute booking request, and I truly appreciated that. Our dog had a great time with them and looked great when we picked him up! They even gave him a bath while he was there. If needed, I will be using their services again. I would highly recommend Yasmith and Jay to watch your fur babies! I trust them 100%!
We are so happy to have found Johnna for our girls. She gives them so much love and takes wonderful care of them. We love getting the daily pictures and updates. She is such an animal lover and it shows. We are so grateful to have found her. We have peace when leaving them knowing they are in loving hands.

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 Fair 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 Fair 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 Fair Oaks.
<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 Fair 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.
