About: Thanks for visiting my profile! I was born and raised in Switzerland where I grew up with 5 different types of pets at a time, including 1 Border Collie, 1 Belgian Shepherd, rescue cats, geckos, newts, mice, tortoises and rabbits - yes, we had it all! I have been living 'abroad' for the past 10 years and I have been in the US for the past 4. My husband and I own an Australian Shepherd that we rescued from a shelter in Brooklyn, New York. We've been using Rover as clients and it is now the time that I switch sides. My husband and I work from home so they will always be someone to take care of your pet. Our Australian Shepherd wakes up around 7:00 a.m. and we feed him twice a day and go out three times a day in the neighborhood, and sometimes we even go to the beach in our EV where he has a dedicated space that he can share. We live in a quiet neighborhood in the three bedroom house where we have plenty of space for dogs and cats (2,000 sqft). We actually have so much space that we have three beds for our dog excluding the sofa and our bed :)
“She gave our pup great care. She was very attentive and flexible. Kept us well informed with lots of photos. We were super comfortable knowing our little girl was getting lots of attention and being well cared for. We highly recommend.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ladera Ranch
Lorelle was great with Adam. She administered him medications with no problems and attended to his special needs. She was very communicative and sent photos or videos regularly. I felt like Adam was in good hands with Lorelle, she is very experienced and is very kind.
Anu was our first sitter experience with Rover, and she made the process easy and stress-free. She provided many photos and videos, and gave us a detailed report on things (arthritis flare-up and allergies) we’d flagged for her when we met. We can’t wait to use Anu again!
Connor was fantastic! He accommodated a last-minute booking for Jupiter for three nights, and everything went perfectly. His home is very nice, clean, and well-suited for dogs. One particularly reassuring aspect is that his current household arrangement allows for someone to always be home, which provides great peace of mind. Connor also sent updates and photos throughout Jupiter’s stay. Overall, an excellent experience! I highly recommend Connor and look forward to using him again.
Hannah was wonderful as our pet sitter for our dog, Blue, while we were on a cruise for five days. Her communication was great—she kept us updated and always made us feel at ease. She also went above and beyond to make sure she could accommodate our requests. We’ll definitely book her again, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable pet sitter.
We were very happy with Cooper’s stay with Jordan. She is very accommodating with drop off and pick up hours. While Cooper was in her care she sent us lots of photos of our dog. We can tell from the picture that Cooper was enjoying himself and he was happy. Jordan has lots of experience with dogs and we knew Cooper was in good hands. Definitely recommend and will use her again in the future.
I’m not one for reviews but in all honesty she was amazing. I 100% recommend Saeedeh if you need boarding or even a play buddy. She’s attentive, caring, responsive, and it doesn’t take long to realize how much she cares for any pets. She has amazing energy and it shows throughout her services. Will come back for sure👍🏽

This was our first time leaving our Carly with anyone other than family and the first time ever leaving her this long (8 nights!). It is very clear that Sondra and Kirk are huge animal lovers and we felt comfortable leaving our "baby" in their care. Sondra was very communicative and Carly came home happy and exhausted :)

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 Ladera Ranch 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 Ladera Ranch 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 Ladera Ranch.
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 Ladera Ranch. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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 Ladera Ranch 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.
