“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.”
“Phyllis was an amazing sitter for Trixie and Ginger! She had great communication from start to finish, keeping me updated and making the whole process seamless. She was so welcoming, and I could tell my dogs felt comfortable and well cared for. They truly enjoyed their stay! I highly recommend Phyllis and would absolutely book with her again. Thank you for taking such great care of my pups!”
“Barb allowed us to not have any worries while we were on vacation. Bentley had space to run and more attention than he could handle. She updated us and sent pictures which further eased our mind. My family and I would recommend her over and over. We will definitely be trusting her with Bentley in the future”
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.
“Stephanie is really great with new dogs , she loved and cared for my cockapoo poodle as if he was her own. She sent multiple pictures and updates about Bentley , she was very responsive when I’d ask for anything. Highly recommend her to watch your dogs if you’re going for a vacation or even a night out. I have booked multiple times now and will continue to do so , my Poodle gets excited to see her and her husband so you know he loves them both.”
About: I've cared for animals since I was a little girl. Taking in unwanted litters, and finally when I was 16 I began working at a doggy daycare. I now run my own doggy care center, own 3 dogs myself, and work closely with fosters and rescues in the area. My schedule is very accommodating as I am willing to go out of my way to ensure your pets are cared for. I have a flexible job, and a home that is equipped to care for animals! I love making report cards to track their eating, behavior, and fun stuff we did/learned while in my care! I also work for a dog treat company, and provide organic dog treats!
“Hello, my name is Mara, and my name is Recipe. We want to give Lika four paws up and a sassy tail wag because our stay with her was sweeeeet! We had a ball at her house! LITERALLY! We like Lika and would party at her house again anytime!”
“Beverly has been with Dakota before and she always has a good stay and comes home happy. This time she watched my sheepadoodle Teddy and Beverly and they both came home happy and I could tell they had a great stay. I always feel comfortable and is able to relax on my vacations when my doggies stay with her. Thanks again Dakota”
“Drake was amazing!! He watched our senior Great Pyrenees and was extremely communicative and reassuring when I was very nervous about leaving her. Our pup was happy and relaxed. Absolutely recommend Drake!!!”
“Jocelyn and her fiancé are absolutely fantastic pet boarders. They are extremely understanding and very communicative. My cats enjoy their time and get comfortable when they’re there with Jocelyn and her fiancé. I definitely trust them with my boys. ❤️”

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.
98% of sitters in Johnstons Corner 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 Johnstons Corner 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 Johnstons Corner.
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 Johnstons Corner. On Rover:

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 Johnstons Corner 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.
