“Nervous about leaving your new puppy in the care of a stranger? Don’t be when it’s Betty! My Cooper is 3 months old, naturally shy with strangers, and normally suffers with separation anxiety. The morning I dropped him off, I placed Cooper down on the pavement to see how he would react. To my amazement, Betty’s kind spirit attracted him like a moth to a flame. He ran over, pounced into her open arms, and followed her into her the house without so much as a cry. When I picked him up he that evening he gave her a million kisses before leaving. The following day, he did the same but with even more gusto. There is nothing as comforting and reassuring to a pet mom, than your little one adoring their caretaker enough to happily leave your side. Thank you, Betty! Cooper has a new Grams. ♥️”
“My furbaby has really bad separation anxiety and Lisa was so sweet and wonderful that the next day he ran right up to her excited to spend another day with her. She's loving and will treat your baby like her own!”
“Erica is fantastic ! We were initially concerned about leaving our 5 month old puppy Lola for one week, but Erica quickly disseminated our concerns by demonstrating her knowledge and experience of dogs/puppies. She understands their needs and is good at meeting those needs. Our high energy, stubborn puppy learned how to "sit" under Erica's care! Need I say more ! Erica also provided us with daily updates/photos which really helped us enjoy our vacation without any concerns. When we arrived home, it was obvious that Lola too was pleased with Erica.”
“Our boys had a great time with Virginia! We had a last minute reservation for day care scheduled the day of and she was very accommodating and flexible with time. She took them on multiple walks during their 6 hour stay, one of which had a beautiful picturesque view of the water reservoir. She kept in touch and sent many pictures and updates and took great care of them like they were own! Would definitely recommend her services!”
“Madison & Moses are awesome! So easy to communicate with and both have a great, calm energy that was perfect for helping my shy, anxious, rescue pittie feel right at home. It’s clear they’re both well-versed in dog behavior and I appreciate that they met my dog right where she was at. They had no issues giving her the time, space and patience needed to open up in her own time - it made all the difference. Thankful to have found them!”
“A big thanks for another fun day! My husband and I really appreciate Semran’s attention to detail and TLC for Manny. And we wanted to add an extra star for last week’s care!⭐️ Thank you!”
About: Hi! My name is Isabelle. I’ve been dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for at least 10 years! I miss having dogs around so I will love yours like my own. I work from home full time and can easily take lots of breaks to let your dog out! I also take 1-2 long walks a day. Feel free to bring their bed and any toys your dog may want to have with them. I don’t have a yard but plenty of space to walk them around.
“Dama was such a wonderful dog sitter, she was so communicative and I felt completely comfortable leaving our high strung Belgian boy with her while we enjoyed days out in San Diego (visited from Northern Nevada). Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!”
“She's great. My dog has never been with anyone but family and she is able to comfort him. With my schedule changing, it is wonderful having her as a backup for work. Like I said, she's great.”
About: I have extensive, hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, ranging from household pets to farm and ranch animals. I grew up on a 7-acre property where I was constantly surrounded by animals, which gave me a strong foundation in animal care, behavior, and responsibility. I also spent time as a competitive horseback rider, which provided additional experience working closely with horses and other large animals. Alongside farm experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds, as well as cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and other small animals. I currently have two large senior dogs—a Boxer and a Shepherd/Husky mix—who I’ve raised since they were puppies, giving me experience with everything from early training to senior care. I’m familiar with the unique care needs of smaller animals as well. I also have a two-year-old daughter who is very gentle and animal-loving, and she enjoys being around and helping with daily pet care and walks when appropriate. Because she will often be with me, I kindly ask that you let me know if your pets are comfortable around children so I can ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone involved. My goal is always to provide safe, loving, and reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away, knowing your pets are treated like family. My schedule is flexible since I am a stay-at-home mom caring for my two-year-old daughter. This allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day, with availability for morning, afternoon, and some evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Because I am home most of the time, I am able to adjust my routine to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, check-ins, and any special care instructions your pet may have. I prioritize reliability and communication, so you’ll always know when I’m arriving and how your pet is doing. While I do have my daughter with me, I am intentional about only accepting bookings where I can ensure a safe, calm, and positive experience for both your pet and your home. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a calm, comfortable environment. I make sure each pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any special instructions. I take time to understand each animal’s personality and needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. In client homes, I treat the space with the same respect I would my own—keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I am reliable, communicative, and always mindful of both the pet’s comfort and the owner’s peace of mind. In my own home, pets are cared for in a structured, calm environment alongside my two senior dogs. I maintain a clean and organized space where animals can feel safe and relaxed. My goal is to build trust with both pets and their owners by providing consistent, attentive, and compassionate care every time.
About: I grew up with a house full of animals: a black lab, chickens, goats, bunnies, turtles, snakes, and guinea pigs. That meant daily feeding routines, extensive coop and cage cleaning, all different types of playtime, and learning to read each animal's mood and body language, from a nervous rabbit to an excited lab. Because I grew up with such a wide mix, I adapt fast and pay close attention to what each individual animal needs. Dogs are where I feel most at home. I've always had a natural connection with them, and they tend to warm up to me right away. I know how to read a dog's energy, give them the attention and exercise they need, and make sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. For me, this isn't just a job. It's genuinely one of my favorite things to do! I recently graduated and am currently job searching, which means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time and energy to give to pet care right now. I'm able to offer consistent attention throughout the day, whether that's multiple walks, playtime, or just being present, without having to squeeze visits around a 9-to-5. It's a great season for me to be really available and engaged for your dog, and I'll keep my profile updated as my schedule evolves. On walks and drop-in visits, your dog stays on their normal routine, same feeding times, same walk schedule, plus any specific instructions you leave me. I always check the space first so everything stays exactly as you left it. When your dog boards at my place, they get my full attention with no other pets around to compete for space or affection. My yard isn't fenced, so outdoor time is on leash to keep things safe, and indoors I keep things calm and familiar so the stay doesn't feel disruptive. Throughout any visit, I'm watching your dog's body language and energy, not just going through the motions, so I can catch anything off and keep them comfortable the whole time. Depending on your preference, I'll also send photo or text updates so you can see how they're doing while you're away.
“Berenice was fantastic. Everytime we picked Obi up he was happy, clean and wagging his tail. She kept us up to date and did many fun things to keep Obi active. Definitely will use her again if we come to visit in the future.”
“Thank you so much! Stephanie and her husband were so great! I had the opportunity to meet your husband at the time of pick up. My sister had to do the pick up but she said you are extremely friendly. My puppy is happy to walk into your house! It’s super clean and it’s nice that they both enjoy taking care of my puppy. Maple will be returning 😁”
“Christopher and Cherry did a fantastic job making my little man feel comfortable. I got pictures updating how he was doing throughout the day which was a relief. He was very happy when I went to pick him up and will definitely use them again”
About: Hi! My name is Kyle. I’m a dedicated dog lover who enjoys providing plenty of love, attention, and care throughout the day. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where every dog feels right at home. What sets me apart? I’m part of a dog loving household with a built in furry supervisor our Yorkie, Zola! 🐾 I’ve been surrounded by dogs since I was 7 years old and have had the privilege of caring for my two Pitbulls back in the Philippines for 16 wonderful years, as well as my Siberian Husky for 10 amazing years before they passed away. They were more than pets they were family. They taught me the importance of patience, love, and providing care through every stage of a dog’s life. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether they’re energetic puppies, playful adults, or sweet seniors, I make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away, like they’re enjoying a fun little vacation of their own. Please note: • Your dog must be current on flea prevention and vaccinations. • Please let me know if your dog has any health condition or illness that could be contagious to other pets. Pet care fits seamlessly into my life. I love staying active, so daily walks, playtime, and quality time with furry friends come naturally. I enjoy creating a routine where pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. Whether it’s a fun adventure outside, some extra cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I provide a safe, clean, and loving home where every dog is treated like family. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I’ll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

“My little man Brady absolutely loved his time with Lucy and Stella. Huge thanks to Taylor and Andrew I can’t say enough good things! Being able to be absent without the stress of his well being is priceless. This was our first time using Rover and couldn’t be happier. We will absolutely be back sooner than later!”

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 Jamul 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
