“Angelica was absolutely wonderful with Oreo! She took such great care of her while we were away from Friday through Tuesday. She kept me updated every single day with lots of photos and little messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Oreo was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I also loved seeing her interact with Angelica’s cats, it looked like she had a great time! Angelica is such a kind, caring, and thoughtful person, and I truly appreciated all the love she gave Oreo. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”

“Robert is the best option for your Rover needs. He has excellent customer service, great prices, provides updates daily via text through the app on how things are going, and sends videos and photos that really showcase the amazing job he does. Our dog is always excited to see him, loves playing with the other animals including his own cat and dog, and due to all the fun she’s had sleeps for hours upon her return home. Thank you Robert for all your help this summer! We look forward to booking your services again in the future.”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Kimberly! We were honestly a little nervous about leaving our dog with someone we didn’t know, but she completely put our minds at ease from the beginning. She even offered to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, which we really appreciated. She was incredibly accommodating with our last-minute request and went above and beyond to work with our schedule, including a very early drop-off and a late pickup. Throughout the day, she kept us updated with photos and was a great communicator, which made us feel so comfortable knowing our dog was happy and well cared for. She took her on walks, let her swim (which she absolutely loved!), and clearly made an effort to make her feel comfortable and have a fun day. We came home to a happy, tired pup — exactly what you want! We are so grateful for how kind, flexible, and attentive she was. We would absolutely trust her with our dog again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet like their own! Thank you Kimberly. ❤️”

“My dog Bentley stayed with Vanessa for a week! a Although we were nervous, she made us feel at ease. We received pictures and updates, he looked very happy. I don’t think he wanted to come back home lol, highly recommend! Great family.”

“Ludwika you are unbelievably amazing! I can’t express my gratitude for your patience, professionalism and warm embrace. I was beyond nervous being away for Cookie for the first time, knowing that she can be very energetic and isn’t aware of her strength so she can be a handful when nervous. Thank you for being so patient with Cookie and your expertise made being out of town so much more pleasant, your reassurance meant so much. Thank you once again ??❤️”

“Tiffany is amazing!!!!!! Will definitely be booking with her again when the need arises. She was great with my dog gave me daily updates quick at responding super friendly. Very professional I have already recommended her to my friends and cousins.”

“As new puppy parents we were nervous leaving Ziggy for the first time with someone else for a work trip. Rachel and her daughter were incredible. She sent us daily updates and kept us posted throughout the whole trip and we are so so grateful for the loving home she provided for Ziggy. We will for sure be booking with her again, our hearts are so full.”

“Very professional and friendly. Took great care of our three furry babies. Made us all feel at ease being it was our pups' first time at a boarding house. Communication was great. Loved the updates and videos. Highly recommend. Will be using them again.”

“I booked her last minute to watch my dachshund Hennessy, and I couldn’t be happier with how it went! She has a beautiful backyard that Hennessy loved, and I really appreciated how she took her on walks and kept me updated with pictures throughout the stay. It was Hennessy’s first time in heat, so I was a little nervous, but I could tell she handled everything with care and confidence. Definitely recommend and would trust her again with my pup!”

I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and cats, and I’m happy to provide regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands. My goal is to make your pet feel at home while you’re away! I’m available for Drop-Ins/Dog Walking on weekday mornings between 6 - 7 AM and evenings after 6:00 PM, plus full service availability on Saturdays and Sundays + Holidays🏝️ I love spending quality time with pets and am happy to provide attentive, reliable care while you’re away.

I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“I’m pretty sure our dogs want Jesse and Heather as their new owners! The family was so sweet and kind with our girls. They sent photos all weekend and made me feel at ease leaving them. Cannot recommend them enough!!”

“Rebecca was so great! She was so informative and helpful! My kids and I loved seeing the photo updates daily of our pups playing and being loved on. We didn’t have to worry at all about them and could totally enjoy our vacation. Thank you!!”

“My boys continue to have a great time with Vincent and his family. Thank you once again for being such a huge help for my boys when I have to leave and taking great care of them.”

“Very nice family. They seem to really care about the pets. I am so thankful they were able to take Stitch on such a short notice. They stayed in touch with me through texts and pics which made me feel at peace knowing he was okay.”


“Melissa is amazing! Extremely communicative and accommodating and clearly so good with animals. Peanut Butter was happy and energetic for drop off and pick up and Melissa was great at sending updates and photos. Highly recommend!”

“100% recommend going to Joseph for dog boarding services ! Our German Shepherd LOVED IT there! (Mind you my dog is very shy,but he got over his shyness and enjoyed his stay.) Joseph is definitely our go to dog sitter for whenever we decide to go out on Vacations again and need a dog sitter. He did such an amazing job with our dog and gave us updates and pictures of him playing with his little doggy friends when we asked how he was doing ?. I loved knowing my German shepherd was in very good hands ! Thank you so much Joseph for your services especially with it all being so last minute ! We will definitely be contacting you again ??”
“Absolutely fantastic! Our puppy was so well cared for and loved while we were away. Denice kept us regularly updated with pictures and news, which was reassuring. I’d definitely drive over an hour to ensure our dog gets such great care and affection again”

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.
95% of sitters in La Cresta 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 La Cresta 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 La Cresta.
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 La Cresta. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 La Cresta 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.
