“Truly the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! Cookie (our corgi) stayed with Katherine for two days and one night during a heat wave, and somehow he still came home relaxed, happy, and totally himself. She made sure he got the exercise he needs—even in the heat—and it really showed. Katherine’s home is beautiful—so warm, clean, and inviting—and her garden is just as lovely. It’s clear she puts care into everything she does, and that includes how she takes care of the dogs she watches. When I picked Cookie up, he was calm and content, like he’d had his own little vacation. It’s not easy to wear out a corgi, but Katherine managed it with total thoughtfulness. It’s such a relief to know Cookie was in good hands, and it honestly made my time away so much easier. We’ll absolutely be reaching out to her again. So grateful!”
“Cymantha was incredibly kind and communicative while watching my 10 year old husky, who generally does not do well when I leave him overnight! She had him for 4 days and texted me photos and updates everyday, which made the experience much easier for me. Cymantha’s experience shows in her work. Thor came home happy as ever, we will definitely be booking again!”
“Super caring and accommodating. Tiffany sent notes and pictures during Ramble’s stay and allowed me to grab Ramble for a few hours so that I could treat him for a walk and dinner date.”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Sant made the entire experience so easy and stress-free! Before boarding Lumo for 10 days, we had an initial meet-and-greet where Sant walked me through where Lumo would be staying, playing, and spending his time. Being able to see the environment beforehand gave me so much peace of mind and made me feel comfortable leaving Lumo in Sant’s care. Throughout the stay, Sant consistently sent photos and videos, which I really appreciated. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and I always felt comfortable reaching out with questions, knowing Sant was equally proactive in keeping me updated. Since this was Lumo’s first time staying with Sant, communication was especially important in making the experience a success, and Sant absolutely delivered. I couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience! I’m so grateful to have found Sant and plan to continue using him as my go-to boarding sitter for Lumo. I highly recommend Sant to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring person to look after their dog!”
“Tammy was wonderful and very accommodating. We had to change our travel plans a little and she said it was no problem at all. She also sent us updates on how our Molly was doing and took great care of her. We will definitely trust her with Molly again!”
“Juli is so kind and warm and easy to work with! She was so sweet with our young dog Louise and at our meet/greet I was instantly comfortable leaving Louise with Juli in her lovely home and spacious yard. I deeply appreciated all the ways in which Juli expressed care and concern for, first and foremost, keeping Louise safe while in her care. Even though Louise barked and whined in her crate her first night away from home and was not the perfect guest I had hoped she would be, Juli was completely understanding and told me that it was totally normal, it's part of the boarding process, and not to worry at all. Juli is clearly a "dog person" and is someone you can feel totally safe leaving your precious pet with. We won't hesitate to ask Juli to board Louise again!”
“Tasha was great with my dog she keeps you updated with pictures as your away from your pet and the entire process with Tasha is very professional will definitely be using her services again thank you see you soon !!”
“Lindsey is the best! Our dog is so nervous of new people and other dogs, but she immediately knew how to connect with him. Her dog is also such a sweetheart and got along so well with our nervous boy. She sent us updates throughout each day with videos and photos. We’ve had a lot of dog sitters over the years and she is by far the best experience for both us as dog parents and our little fluffy guy.”
About: I’ve taken care of my puppy and have experienced training him since he was 8 weeks old and now he’s over 2 years old and very energetic and playful. I’ve also taken care of my cat and experienced administering medications through injection and orally when he got really sick. He’s now 5 years old and thriving. I work from home 3 times a week so I have flexibility and on the days I’m in office, I can still make time early morning or evening. We live in a single family home and have dog gates to separate cats and dogs as needed to give them safe spaces. We also have a fenced backyard so doggies can run and play catch.
“Vanson and his wife Ella were great. They sent me videos and pictures of our dogs having so much fun. Their home is so comfortable and dog friendly. I highly recommend them to take care of your fur babies!”
“I really appreciated all the updates throughout Hunnie’s stay; every walk, playtime, and feeding with lots of photos! Deborah was also very accommodating after some last minute travel changes on my end and was able to take care of Hunnie for an extra night. She came home happy! Would definitely book with Deborah again. Thank you!”
“Lupe was great! Great communication, sent pictures and videos, and kept me updated. She has plenty of space for Kona to run around and play. She even had her own room! Would definitely use her again!”
“Diyanna was great. Kylo had an amazing time and we got daily photos and updates. If there was anything or concern, Diyanna was on top of it. Great communication and would highly recommend.”
“Our dog Moose enjoyed his stay with Ali. He was able to play to his hearts content and I appreciated the updates that Ali sent while we were away. We would be happy to re-book in the future!”
“Dash had a wonderful time with Giezell and her family. They treated him as their own. He was well taken care of. Love the pics and videos Giezell sent, especially the one with her daughter hugging Dash! We will definitely be back!”
“Dustin was great! He sent us a ton of pictures/videos of our dog during her stay and made us feel comfortable she was in safe hands. Lots of space to run around- our dog came back tired and seeming like she had a blast. Referred Dustin to our friends and family in town! 10 / 5 stars.”
“Tamara was a great host for our dog Pikachu! She sent pictures throughout his stay and went above and beyond to make him comfortable. We were able to fully relax knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely use her for boarding in the future.”

I can tell when my Ojo had a good time and felt safe and loved by her sitter by how she acts when I pick her up, and Ojo was happy as could be. Julie was a great communicator, her home was lovely, and I felt totally great leaving Ojo with her for the weekend. I would absolutely book Julie again in the future! Thank you for watching my girl!
Fernanda was amazing -extremely communicative. Great follow up and quick responses. Connor seem to have a great time with her and she went really out of her way to help me out because I asked her to bring the dog to an event for a few hours and she did that for me. Super grateful.
Kathrine is amazing. This is my first time using rover and Kathrine went above and beyond for us. She’s lovely, kind, and her home is beautiful. She sent so many photos and updates and Somi(my dog) looked happy and enjoyed herself! I would 100% use Kathrine again and recommend her to anyone! I wish she lived near me so she could be my day to day dog sitter!
Channing took great care of our pets during their stay. Our dog Yeti is still a young puppy and can get anxious in new environments, especially with unfamiliar places and car rides. She gave him extra attention and handled him very well. When we picked him up, it was clear he had already started to settle in and feel comfortable. He looked happy, relaxed, and in great shape. Our cat Dusya is older and needs a bit more attentive care. Channing clearly paid close attention to her as well. Dusya looked calm, well cared for, and content when we came to get her. It is always reassuring when you can see that both animals were comfortable and treated with care. We were very happy with the experience and would absolutely recommend Channing to others. Five stars!

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
93% of sitters in Imola 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 Imola 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 Imola.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Imola. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Imola 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
