Please feel free to let me know of any questions or special requests you may have. I currently work in dog care with my husband. I’m currently work from home alongside my husband and our 4 pets. I’m generally available weekdays and weekends. I’m free most times of the day to drop in and check in on your pet(s)! I always make sure to gain trust from the animals I look after by providing some comfort, pets, and or treats as soon as I meet them.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 14 years, and have experience in basic dog training. I also can wash, and cut nails. I am also experienced in administering medicine (such as pills and ear ointment) and im super affectionate :). Booking day care and sitting with me also includes 24/7 access to dog cameras, so any parents can check on their pup ♥️ I am home majority of the day, I am able to give your pet attention and quality play time and frequent breaks throughout the day. Every once and a while 1-2 friends will stop by briefly, but that’s for 2-3 hours max. I am good at updating my clients their condition of their pup. I also have a fenced yard, and ample time dedicated to your pet. Pet owners that book with me also get special access to doggie cameras to check on their pet’s welfare.
About: I have been a life long dog lover. I grew up on a ranch with many animals which is where my love if animals started. I have always been the go-to person for friends and families who need help dog sitting while they are away. I have experience and background clearance through Riverside County Sheriffs Animal Services as a volunteer and dog foster. When your pet is in my care, they will be treated as my own with love and structure. I am a full time teleworker. I am home with my own dog daily. I am able to tend to the dog’s needs anytime and regularly take short lunch walks to manage energy. I have a fenced yard and multiple kennels in the home, if needed. I prefer to have dogs that can be comfortable in the space without being in a kennel, but it is available if the pup prefers a kennel. If I am caring for the pet in another home, regular check-ins in a scheduled basis.
“Kristina was amazing! I have honestly never been so impressed with a Rover sitter! She was fantastic at sending updates and pictures! I know my pup was treated like one of her own because he was really happy and slept like a baby as soon as he got in the car to be taken home... that to me is a sign that he had a blast hanging out with Kristina and the fur baby fam! We will definitely be back!”
About: More than just pet care — Because Every Dog Deserves a Little Extra Love, Comfort & Care!!!♥️🐾 Animals have always had a special place in my heart. My friends, family, and even people who don’t know me well often tell me, “You’re such an animal whisperer!” because they notice how naturally animals trust me and feel comfortable around me. I’ve always believed that pets are more than just animals — they are family, and they deserve to feel loved, safe, and cared for even when their humans are away. As a lifelong dog owner with over 19 years of experience caring for my own dogs, I understand the trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else. I will care for your pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would want someone to give my own. My goal is for your pup to feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away — and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I recently graduated from dental school and am currently waiting for my official license to arrive before starting work. Because of this, I have a lot of free time right now and would love to spend it caring for dogs, one of my absolute favorite and most loving creatures! My schedule is very flexible throughout the week. As a recent dental graduate, I bring a high level of responsibility, care, and attention to detail when looking after pets. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for your dogs, ensuring they get plenty of attention, affection, and proper care while in my supervision.

About: Hi!! I’m an animal lover since childhood! Grew up in a household with dogs and other pets. Gained 5+ years hands-on experience walking, feeding & caring for them. I volunteered at my local vet clinic for about a year. I am currently an online student and on my way to becoming a veterinary technician. 🩺🐾 I currently work a part-time job. I’m available in the mornings and after 6pm. I love being active, so walking yours pets wont be an issue! I’m available during the summer and winter for boarding and house sitting. My dog by the name geo, is sweet and playful. He is an inside dog and loves going on walks. He goes crazy for walks, treats, and playful activities. I make sure to care for his needs (food, water, bathroom, dental, physical activity, mental health etc.) My other dog, Baby, is a pitbull. I know when people hear that they become terrified but it’s a myth! She’s a sweetheart! They both get along very well. The best small and big dog combo 🐾💕
“Amanda was wonderful with our giant puppy! He had a great time playing with her goldendoodle, Rosie. She was awesome with sending photos & updates throughout the day. Our doodle came back so exhausted after a full day of fun! Amanda was very professional & kind, I would highly recommend.”
About: I grew up in a home where both of my parents were dog trainers and ran a boarding and breeding business, so I’ve been around dogs my entire life and learned a lot about proper care, behavior, and handling. I’m confident with dogs of all temperaments and understand how to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat every pet like my own and give them plenty of attention and affection. I truly love animals and always prioritize their well-being. I’m already committed to my 10k steps daily walks, and will be committed to feeding, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I care for every dog like they’re my own. I make sure they stay on their regular routine with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, fresh water, and lots of love and attention. I also send photos/videos and updates so pet parents can feel at ease while they’re away.
“Our doggies had a lot of fun and got to play with cute doggies that April had visiting or her own. They were so excited to “tell us” everything they did today, that we are definitely going to bring them back! April is great with the dogs and it shows that she is a certified trainer; Loki and Rupert spent their day without fighting and we can only thank April for that.”

About: Growing up with three cats and taking care of dogs, has given me a passion to take care of your pets. I have taken care of dogs in the area outside of this service, but have decided to expand by using Rover. I am reliable, responsible, and a positive person. I want to make sure your pets are happy and healthy! I work remote Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday- giving me a flexible environment to take care of your pets morning, noon, and evening. My job is full time, but I make time before work, on my lunch break, and after work to make sure your pets are taken care of! I stick to the schedule your pet is used to, so as not it disturb their habits while you are away. Feeding them and walking them on time is my top priority, as well as making sure they are well loved and feel safe in their own home.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Grand Terrace commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,671 sitters in Grand Terrace, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
