“Elise has been a fantastic sitter for my Golden retriever Riplee. She is extremely flexible when I've had to adjust times to pick up and drop off. She updates me and sends pictures of him playing and he always looks so happy. When I pick him up, he is always exhausted and ready to cuddle. I highly recommend Elise!”

“Harper had a wonderful stay. Michelle and Robert paid excellent attention to her temperament and accommodated her accordingly. I got daily pictures and updates. I picked her up and she was happy and had clearly been bathed which I appreciated so much! It’s so nice knowing how much they care about the dogs that stay with them! I will definitely be using them again and highly recommend you do too!”

“There aren't enough good things that I can say about Chad and his family! Not only was he super responsive, but I definitely felt like my dog was in good hands. Throughout my trip, I received many photo updates, usually when my dog was out and about playing with other pups. Having someone that you can depend on is paramount and I hit the jackpot with Chad. THANK YOU!!! P.S. Jovie says hello 🙂”

About: With over 27 years of hands on personal and professional animal care, loving pets isn’t just what I do, it's who I’ve been since getting my very first hamster at 3 years old. From dog and cat companions to farm and exotic animals, my entire life has centered around the comfort, happiness, and well being of almost every type of animal. ​ In California, I spent 6 years managing a horse ranch, followed by 12 years managing a pet store and working closely with local dog and cat rescue organizations. Over the years, I also built a dedicated following of beloved "pup-stomers" through years of professional in home boarding and a private house sitting. After relocating 4 years ago to grow our family, I am thrilled to open my schedule again to offer you the attentive, love and peace of mind they deserve while you are away. Experience with administering medications and special diets including raw food. ​I am a stay at home mom to 3 children, meaning I am always home and readily available. We spend lots of time playing in our huge fenced in backyard, so your pet will receive constant supervision and companionship. I have plenty of balls, frisbees, and toys ready to go! ​ A daily walk is included (weather permitting, if desired), and I am more than happy to stick to your dog's regular feeding and care routine. I pride myself on being flexible, accommodating, and quick to send photo updates as often as you’d like throughout the day. Your fur baby will be included with our family all day, including daily walks, rather than a traditional boarding facility. ​ Your dog is welcome to sleep on their own full-size bed in the guest room, in a dog bed, on the couch, or even in my room! ​I am also very experienced with crate training and puppies!

“I am so thrilled to have found Michelle. Emmett just spent his second week-long visit with her and there will be more. I am convinced from the wonderful pictures and videos I get, as well as how calm and relaxed he has been when I pick him up, and especially when I dropped him off the second time, that he is at least just as well cared for and loved as he is at home. Maybe even more because Michelle devotes her whole day to the dogs she cares for. I am very grateful to Michelle for the peace of mind I have about leaving Emmett with her and the freedom that affords me.”

“This was our first time using Rover. It went very smooth. Rover makes it easy for two way communication with the sitter. Kimber was great to send pics and let us know all was well while we were away. Kimber’s house became our dog’s home away from home in no time. That reassurance was wonderful. We will definitely use Kimber again.”

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 Gardena 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 Gardena.

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.

You and your Gardena 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 ID 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.
