“Catherine was very welcoming and attentive. Jewel seemed to have a good time, but was very excited to be home. I received a video from Catherine, and it made me more at ease.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been a natural part of who I am. I’ve trained all of my dogs as an adult—everything from solid leash manners to responding confidently to hand signals. I also have experience supporting senior pets with special needs. One of the dogs I cared for had hip dysplasia, and I helped him stand, walk, and get to the restroom safely. On the days he couldn’t get up and had accidents while lying down, I made sure he was cleaned, comfortable, and treated with patience and dignity. My love isn’t just for dogs—I’ve always had a soft spot for cats too. Whether it’s training, daily care, or supporting an animal through their toughest moments, I show up with compassion and steady, reliable care. I don’t have a normal 9 to five job I’m gone for two weeks out of the month for work and home for two weeks during that two weeks. My schedule is completely clear, which allows me to focus on all the awesome animals. I always require a meet and greet to ensure a good fit for everyone. I never allow dogs off-leash in unsecured areasa and I am cautious with door-dashing and ensure pets are securely indoors. I provide photo/video updates with every visit and am quick to respond to messages. I live in a non-smoking household with a fully fenced 6-foot wooden fence. I live near a large quiet park, perfect for nervous pups. I have a quiet, separate room for pets that need a break, and no kids are present. I will treat your home with the same respect as my own and always lock up securely.
“Amanda was incredibly kind to take care of my dog, Kimchi, last minute over a busy holiday weekend while I attended a nearby retreat. Kimchi seemed to do very well and was clearly comfortable with her. Amanda sent me daily pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. She’s very familiar with dogs, and I felt completely secure leaving Kimchi in her care. I highly recommend Amanda if you’re in the area!”
About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on, real-world dog experience—not just watching pets, but actively raising, training, and caring for them through every stage of life. I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I've raised dogs from puppyhood, including everything from house training and obedience basics to working through high-energy behaviors and building calm, structured routines. I’m self-taught in obedience training and comfortable reinforcing good manners, leash skills, and daily structure in a way that’s consistent and positive. I also have extensive experience caring for senior dogs, including slower mobility, comfort-focused routines, and administering medications when needed. I understand how important patience and attentiveness are as pets age, and I adjust care to meet their pace and needs. Whether it’s puppies who need consistency and guidance, active dogs who need structure and engagement, or senior pets who need calm, dependable care, I provide a stable, home-style environment where every dog is treated like family. My goal is simple: when you’re away, your pet is safe, understood, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day and able to provide consistent supervision, care, and attention. Because my home is already structured around being present and available, pets are rarely—if ever—left alone. If I do need to step out briefly, there is always another responsible adult in the home, so your pet continues to be supervised and cared for without interruption. My schedule is flexible and built around the needs of the pets in my care. Feeding, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and quiet rest are naturally woven into the day alongside our normal family routine. This allows me to maintain a calm, stable environment where dogs feel secure, comfortable, and included throughout their stay. Safety, trust, and comfort are the foundation of how I care for pets in my home. I have two friendly dogs of my own, and visiting pets are welcomed into a calm, structured, and family-style environment. Dogs are allowed on furniture and have access to most areas of the home so they can feel relaxed and included, but they are not allowed on beds to maintain clear boundaries and cleanliness for everyone’s comfort. Inside the home, pets have access to dog beds, toys, and crates if they prefer their own space or need quiet downtime. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and comfort level, making sure they have a safe space to rest and decompress when needed. Outside, I have a fully fenced backyard that allows for frequent, supervised potty breaks and safe outdoor time throughout the day. In addition, dogs receive structured walks and playtime every morning and evening to support exercise, stimulation, and routine. My focus is always on creating a safe, predictable environment where pets feel secure, cared for, and at home—whether they are high-energy, social, or more reserved.

Catherine was great with our high energy French Bulldog mix. I explained Belle's needs ahead of time, and Catherine was able to provide a private environment requested while also treating Belle with kindness and attention. I was put to ease by the consistent communication while we were away, including videos. If I need to fly out of Vegas again, I will likely try to book again if we need a place for any of our dogs.

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.
98% of sitters in Irwin Estates 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 Irwin Estates 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 Irwin Estates.
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 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 Irwin Estates 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.
