“Absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! Lorelle was so attentive to our dog Gracie and sent updates with photos daily. I have never felt so good about leaving my dog! Lorelle was excellent and I highly recommend. Feel so blessed to have found her!”
“Tucker loves going to Suman’s house! We get updates and pictures the whole time he’s there. There is great communication back and forth and she always responds quickly. She is very understanding and was able to get him in on short notice for us! Highly recommend❤️”
“We have used Patricia several times and she always provides the best service! She treats our dog, Penelope, like her own and shares lots of updates (photos & videos). Penelope loves her time with Patty and her dog, which leaves us at ease when we travel.”
“My experience with Polyanna couldn't have been more positive. She was punctual and super friendly in all of our meetings. She sent me photos of Jojo while I was away, which made me feel very calm and reassured :) I was happy my dog had the chance to socialize and be with someone else other than me (she's over attached). I can't thank Polyanna enough!”
“Adrianna was great and Casper had the best time. I was going on a vacation and was able to get some great photos and updates throughout my trip. If I have to leave again for an extended period I would be happy to rebook another stay!”
“She’s the best caring option you could ever find in whole irvine area to take good care of your fluffy baby. She’s responsible, responsive, clean, kind and flexible and very friendly. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!”
“Sandra was super nice and communicative through the whole stay about what they were up to and sending pictures. Our dog seemed to really enjoyed staying with their family and got along great with their dog Mocha. Will definitely reach out to Sandra the next time we need a sitter.”
“thank you Kiryl for taking such good care of my boy in a pinch! it was such short notice and he was able to watch my fur baby and send pictures multiple times a day! i will definitely bring my boy to Kiryl to help me in the future.”
“If you're looking for a wonderful couple (and their sweet pup Stevie) to look after your best friend, Wendy and her husband are the best choice. I was traveling on a cross country road trip and I was nervous leaving my dog with someone in an unfamiliar city, but from the minute I arrived at Wendy's house, I could tell she and her husband really loved dogs and were simply great people. They know a great amount about doggie behavior, leave their door open for the dogs to go in and out, and sent me many many precious pictures of my dog looking right at home. I would 100% recommend them to anybody looking for responsive, trustworthy, and fun pet sitters!”
“Temi was a true professional!! She took such great care of my dog, was on top of sending photos, and was just a lovely pleasant person to work with. Highly recommend Temi!”
“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.”
“Megan was awesome! We’ve never used a Rover at all before and she put us completely at ease. She watched our dog over Christmas, communicated very well, and even gave our pup a bath. 🥹 would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Patricia was wonderful! She was friendly, easy to communicate with, and kept us updated with pictures. Skylar seemed very happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Patricia and book with her again.”
“Xiaochang took good care of my dog, Duoduo. Her house is clean and tidy. Her 2 dogs are very calm. She was very efficient to help us unpack and pack Duoduo’s belongings (disassemble the crate beforehand). I will definitely choose her again for Duoduo’s next stay.”
“Athena had a great time when she boarded with Afra and her family. We were kept updated with regular photos, and messages. And Afra was flexible with times as well. Definitely looking to rebook another time”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Laguna Woods
Caring and accommodating! Lindy integrated our Quinoa into her family (kids and pets) seamlessly. I don't think our dog missed us at all.....great walks, lots to do. I won't hesitate to book her again. She was a pleasure to work with and sent numerous pics and videos while we were away. I would give her 10 stars if I could.
Robert and Karolina took amazing care of my senior dog, Peyton, who still requires special attention after knee surgery in July. Robert and Karolina were so attentive and thoughtful to Peyton's care and kept me updated on his stay. Peyton also immediately liked Robert and Karolina and I could tell from the photos that he enjoyed his time with them which is everything to me when choosing care for Peyton. So very grateful to have found Robert and Karolina!
Radhika was great with my senior dog! She was patient with him as he adjusted to a new space and administered his medication on time. My dog had so much fun while he was there, he almost didn’t want to leave! She also sent many photos and updates so I never worried about him while we were away.
This was our second time leaving Chomp with Annie & as soon as we drove into her neighborhood & he realized where he was going, he got so excited & was so happy to see her. Annie always sends us the cutest updates and Chomp has the best time with her. We always feel super comfortable leaving him in her care because we know she really prioritizes the safety and happiness of the pups she watches. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
We used Jordana for the first time for our two labs (ages 12 and 6), to board for 9 nights. She was great and communicated with us almost daily providing updates and photos. It allowed us to enjoy our vacation and have the peace of mind our pups were in good hands. She was super flexible with drop off and pick up times being that weren’t the most convenient or business hour friendly which was so appreciative and allowed us flexibility with our travels.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Laguna Woods 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 Laguna Woods 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 Laguna Woods.
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 Laguna Woods. 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 Laguna Woods 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.
