“Chona was a fantastic sitter for our Frenchie, Coco. She communicated often with texts and photos, took Coco on walks and outings, and made sure she was comfortable and calm the whole stay. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and would definitely book with Chona again.”

“Very sweet and understanding. Actively played with our pug so she didn't get lonely. Lots of walks and communication and pictures. Would definitely recommend her to everyone.”


“Bonnie was absolutely great! Took very good care of my dog and bird. It was our first time using Rover and couldn't be happier with the attention my pets received from Bonnie.”

“Shayne and her family were so great with Lola. She is really nervous around new people, but she warmed up to them quickly and did so well. I am so glad to have found Shayne.”

“Already rebooked! They made several trips each day for our two big dogs and kept an eye out for our two indoor/outdoor cats (AND provided cat food/water for a stray that has adopted us). I received updates and photos. Very obvious animal lovers.”

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life! I grew up caring for many animals…cats, dogs, fish, quail, chickens and a rabbit. I currently have 3 dogs and a tortoise. I can’t imagine life without the love of animals! I have a lot of experience with puppies and senior dogs with medical needs. Since I work from home, I am available during most work hours. I am also a full time mom, so I’m typically unavailable during school drop-off and pick-up times, but otherwise flexible availability. I would love to spend time with your pet in whatever capacity you need. I can walk, play fetch, take to the park, or just sit and cuddle. I can feed, bathe, and distribute medication. I am able to just stop in, or stay in your home for a number of hours, but am not able to stay overnight.
“Savanna was a fantastic sitter for our cat Milo! We appreciate her work with cat rescues and the experience shows. Milo is a foster cat who is more on the mellow side, and Savanna and her partner were very attentive to his needs and anxiousness being in a new place with her cats. We received text updates and photos to let us know how he was doing. I would not hesitate to have Savanna take care of our pets again.”

“Cooper was genuinely cared for and very well taken care of by Rachana and her family! We were at peace due to regular and detailed updates about his settling in phase. Being an anxious pup, Cooper needs a considerable amount of patience and love to feel at home and he seemed to feel at ease very soon at Rachana’s place. Their pup is super friendly too and was great company for Cooper during his stay! Thank you for your care and affection towards Cooper!”

About: Hi, my name is Angela! I have extensive experience with high-energy dogs that thrive on special activities and routines. As the proud owner of an Australian Shepherd named Mila, I understand the needs of smart, active dogs who require both physical and mental stimulation to stay happy and well-behaved. I absolutely adore my Aussie, and I will love and care for your pet just as much! 🐾 I also volunteer, which gives me a very flexible schedule to meet the needs of you and your furry family member. Your pet will be treated like my own, with plenty of love, attention, and care. I live in a spacious three-bedroom home, offering plenty of room for your pet to roam, explore, and even enjoy some playtime with Mila. I look forward to meeting your fur baby and providing them with the best care possible. 💜 Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. As a dog owner myself, I’m already accustomed to planning my days around activities like walks, playtime, feeding, and training sessions. I schedule my work flexibly, so I can dedicate the time and attention needed for each pet I care for. Whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or specific routines, I seamlessly integrate pet care into my week to ensure every furry friend feels loved and well-cared for. My girl Mila is very well cared for (some might say spoiled!), and I make sure she’s fed on a consistent schedule every single day. She has plenty of toys to keep her entertained, and you can expect the same level of care and attention for your furry friend.
About: Hello! I’ve been teaching first graders for 24 years. While on breaks from teaching, I enjoy being a substitute doggy daycare provider. My fur baby goes to doggy daycare when I’m teaching first graders, so I know what it’s like to entrust others with your loved one! This is where I’ve been trained by the best Doggy Daycare provider in Lathrop! I substitute at my dog’s daycare when I’m not teaching first graders. I’ll be retiring from teaching soon, but in the meantime, I’m available on weekends when your regular provider isn’t available. I’m planning to start Labor Day Weekend in my home. Please plan to book in advance, so we can introduce your fur babies to my fur baby. My schnoodle gets along great with others. I’m more experienced with Shitzu’s, Poodles, Schnauzers, Yorkies, Doodles, and Cocker Spaniels no. I’m open to setting up a meet and greet with other small to medium breeds. I’m currently teaching Monday-Friday, but will be available on weekends from 4:00 pm Friday to 9:00 pm Sunday. Hourly visits are welcome, as well as over night visits. I have a large fenced back yard and my own fur baby to keep your fur baby company! I allow animals on the furniture and they get to sleep on the bed with me, unless they prefer their own crate or bedding. I have a doggy door so they have access to going potty when needed. I also live in a smoke free home.
“Patricia’s home was perfect for our Princess. We were sent daily pics. Princess was given so much play time and attention. She was so patient with Princess who was anxious the first night. I would definitely use her again.”

“Omg! Cameron literally saved me and my family with the last min decision of having to find my Grand-pup a sitter so we can go on our family trip to Disney land. Bolt seemed to have had an amazing time he came back really calm and happy. Cameron produced updates as we asked and we will be definitely using him again for trips, play dates etc. thanks again Cam you rock and keep doing what your heart loves with these fur babies.”

“Cindy, thank you so much! Kirby and Milo loved every moment with you they felt safe, happy, and truly cared for. Your regular updates with photo and that extra attention to their personalities meant the world to us. It was clear you treated them as your own. We came home to two happy and content pups, thanks to your thoughtful care. We can’t wait to book with you again!”

“Justine did an amazing job with Willa. This was Willa's first boarding so that is always a little nerve-wracking but Justine was very communicative the whole time. Will be booking again in the near future.”


About: Married couple with two helpful teens and a really cool Siberian Husky. My background working with animals includes the Kauai Humane Society where I spent over a decade caring/training and assisting the Vet clinic. I worked independently doing in house visits and I also boarded pets in our home. I can administer meds and have experience with injections. I will not board more one dog unless it is part of your pack. Your pup or pups will be exclusively with Kano only. I work from home. Between my husband and I we are always home. We do not leave dogs outside unattended or alone. We would provide 24 hour care in our quiet gated neighborhood. Fenced yard with artificial grass for potty. We will always supervise your best friends and treat them like family. We always supervise Kano when he is outside. Walks are a must for our Husky so if your pup is willing Kano is a go.
“My dog, Lady, had an excellent overnight stay here! Host was super responsive and able to squeeze Lady in last-minute as I had a family emergency to tend to. They provided photos and videos of Lady throughout the stay and provided a nice/clean home for her. I am so happy to have found someone reliable in my own neighborhood and will definitely be returning int he future.”

“Dipankar and Nagma have been wonderful! They consistently keep me updated with messages and pictures. I can trust that my dog is in good hands. I’m also glad that their dog gets along so good with mine and they end up playing together all day. I would recommend them for all services.”

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 Gillis 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 Gillis.
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 Gillis 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.
