“10/10!!! We were so nervous because we haven’t been away for a weekend without our dog and thought she would be depressed without us. But so glad we found this app and Veronica is the best! Kept us updated with our dog and sent videos! Would definitely recommend her!”
“Booked Alex when we were in a bind for a sitter last minute. She was great and took amazing care of our senior pup, Topher. The updates and pictures throughout the stay helped keep our minds at ease (Topher can be a handful sometimes). Would definitely book again and recommend her for your pet's boarding needs! :)”
“Wonderful wonderful experience! Great communication. I would definitely recommend this family to take care of your pets when you’re away. Both my girls are two totally different personalities and I feel like they had an absolute wonderful time. I will absolutely have you guys watch the girls again in the future! Thank you for everything.”
“Arianna took wonderful care of our pup on short notice. She sent us adorable pictures and kept us in the loop (: we are so grateful for her help and will absolutely be reaching out to her in the future!”
“Boss & Bella ❤ Brittany and her little family. The day we dropped off Boss and Bella, they went directly to her front door with no hesitation and no looking back. They stayed with Brittany for 5 days and looks like they had a great time. THANK YOU!!!”
“Sarah has watched our dogs twice overnight now. Sarah is dependable (which is something we’ve struggled with with other sitters on Rover). I forgot to message ahead and remind her we were coming yesterday but she remembered. Our dogs were happy to come back, which the best part. She listens to what you ask for with caring for your fur babies. We will continue to book with her.”
“Excellent pet sitter! Rocky and Roxy were very well cared for, and we received regular updates, photos, and messages throughout their stay. It gave us great peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and attentive hands. They came home happy and relaxed. We highly recommend and will definitely use her services again! Thank yoi!”

“Absolutely satisfied with the care and how elizabeth always made sure to keep me updated while caring for my dog. I highly recommend her and will definitely be asking for her service again.”
About: I don’t have much years of experience of dog sitting but I can insure you that the best care will be given to your pet! I had a few family dogs growing up but it does not compare to having your own. I got my first ever pet last year and he is truly my baby. Rex is his name, he just turned one year old on September 12th. He’s still a puppy in my eyes lol. I have taken him everywhere I can with me, the mall, the beach, hiking, restaurants, family gatherings, etc! A pet is a life time commitment so I try my best to bring him everywhere with me. I have taught him some on command training since he was a puppy such as sit, paw, down, spin, drop it and stay. He’s not very good at “come here” since he has selective hearing lol. I have recently been touched by all the animal shelters that suffer being locked up for a long time. That is why I decided to save a dog from my local shelter. Hugo is my second baby! He is the sweetest dog there very is. He does not know what a toy is even though I try to introduce them to him, all he wants is love and attention. I barely adopted him on September 29th so we’re still in the learning process of on command training but he is very good with dogs and humans. Both Rex and Hugo show the biggest love. Seeing them every morning and every evening after work really spark up my day. There are a few days throughout the week where I go home for lunch to play with my dogs. I am very grateful to have a job close to my home that allows me to check up on my pets. When I don’t go home during my lunch time I check up on my pets through a camera I set up for them. This gives me some piece of mind. My love for dogs is so big that I hope to open a rescue soon. I work throughout the weekdays but I can drop in before 8 am or after 6 pm for a quick visit! My Saturdays and Sundays are always free so I am available for boarding and day care for those days! I have two dogs, one Golden Retriever and one Siberian Husky. They are big breeds but they are very friendly! They just love to play and play! Your pet will be indoor most of the time with the exception of potty time and play time. I do have a fenced front and backyard. The front yard and backyard are separated but small breeds will not be in the front yard since the fence barrels are very separate from eachother and I fear a small breed can easily fit through there. Play time would have to be in the back yard with my pets. I also have a 3 foot tall dog fence I can use, if you do not feel comfortable having your pet around mine. There are many water stations around the house, a small pool for them, enough toys, and even a dog house with a padded dog bed.
“Say third times the charm. Used a couple of sitters since I’ve been here. Won’t speak much on those experiences but Yetta was by far the most comfortable safest experience I’ve received. She will be my permanent sitter while I’m here so she comes highly recommended. Good size yard. Went out of her way to get my boy his extra food even though I deemed it unnecessary. Your pup will be in great hands here.”
About: ( I do ask each owner to bring their crates for each pet, for their safety ) I’ve taken care of friends and family pets as a teenager, decided to try to get back into it since I’m free most of my day. I can play feed and walk them for their daily activities. Doesn’t matter what age I’ll keep them entertained:) I’m currently a free all day. Have plenty of time to take care of your pet. Whether it’s walking, feeding, &playing with them. They have my attention. ** Starting 05FEB24 I won’t be able to take in medium sized dogs for a while due to some upcoming medical follow ups. Once I’m able to get back to it I will update my profile=} ** I have a fenced yard big enough to keep them running. One male small dog that’s neutered and crate trained. Very friendly once he meets and gets close to others. And the most friendliest yet shy cat. I do ask for crates ! So please bring a crate for your pet ! It’s for their safety as well as all other pets in my care !
About: I grew up having always at least two dogs at a time. I raised a few puppies my self, which are now very well behaved and the most loving dogs. Growing up, we were breeding grate Danes, what makes me very experienced with large dogs. I am honest, reliable and caring. Every dog needs a different kind of attention, and I will get to know your dog very well and give him the attention and exercise he/she needs. At the moment, I have two dogs myself, Lucy and Rue, both Australian stumpy tail cattle dogs with tons of energy. Hire me and your dog will be a happy and relaxed dog when you come back from your trip! My availability is pretty flexible - so just hit me up and let me know what your needs are, I can make most schedules work. I have a fenced yard but am a big advocate for long walks around the neighborhood! Inside the house I’ll provide individual care - every pet is different!
“Christine was just all-around awesome! She's super flexible and easy going and she took great care of my dog. Her dog, Sadie, is the sweetest pup I've met. I'm definitely going to go back to her every chance I get!”

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 Ivanhoe home-away-from-home, 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 Ivanhoe.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Ivanhoe 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 , 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 .
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.
