“Kimberly has been an exemplary dog sitter for our dachshund, Charlie. During a stressful time with flight cancellations, she responded immediately and followed all our instructions carefully. She picked Charlie up, cared for him with genuine warmth, and made him feel like part of her family. We felt so much peace knowing he was well cared for. I highly recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and attentive sitter.”
“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. ❤️”
“Elaiza is so kind and helpful! This is Loki’s 5th stay with her and her husband Gio, and Loki loves them like extended family. They update us frequently and send cute photos of Loki’s activities while we are away. He gets along with their husky Nezuko which is really helpful keeping him active. Will always choose to rebook with them”
“Our Australian Shepherd had so much fun with Emperatriz . I got updates throughout the day. She responded quickly with any questions I had . I knew Blue was in good hands , she treated him like her own . I will definitely be using her again .”
“Abigial is the best sitter i could have imagined! She was super responsive and caring with my dog and i could tell my dog had a great time with her. I will definitely be rebooking with her and i definitely recommend her!”
“I’m able to enjoy my vacations knowing my Furs are in good hands. Carrie and her family treat my Jax and Honey as if they’re their own, and I appreciate that so much! ❤️”
“Karen took such great care of Charlie and Leo! You can tell immediately how much Karen loves animals when you first meet her. She is very interested in getting to know the dogs personalities and keeping them as much in their routine as possible. She sent many pictures and videos to keep me updated, which always makes me happy. I felt very comfortable leaving them with Karen and knew they were in good hands!”
“Was looking for boarding on such short notice and Artemio really helped us out! Our dog Dahlia had the best time and got plenty of exercise while there which is what such a high energy breed really needs. We got updates multiple times throughout the days she was there with pictures and it really put our minds at ease while being separated from our girl. Artemio really went above and beyond and we will definitely be using his services again.”
“Frank, Saleha and family were excellent with my dog Baron. I was so nervous leaving him for the first time. They took excellent care of him and sent me so many updates with photos and videos and put my mind at ease. Highly recommend them! I will definitely be using them again.”
“Krista is always the best sitter we’ve ever had! We don’t mind the far drive to have Harley be at a place where he’s safe, comfortable and super spoiled! Love all the updates, videos and especially all the love Harley gets when he’s at his “vacation home.” Thank you, Krista!! :)”
“We needed a last minute booking and thankfully Robert was able to take us, our dog LOVED her stay! Robert is such a sweetheart, and so is his family. My dog also made a new boyfriend and had tons of fun playing with Chief! The pictures were adorable, and some of them were even professional quality (I’m going to print one and hang it on our wall)! We definitely won’t hesitate to book with him again!”
“Alanah was simply AWESOME! ✋🏾 I was truly impressed and satisfied with the quality of care Alanah gave my dog Josey..From start to finish, Alanah understood how to integrate Josey into their household. Josey totally enjoyed her stay!”
About: I am caring, sweet whimisical creative who adores dogs. My last dog passed away a few years ago and although I am not yet ready to own another, I miss taking care of dogs. I have 15 years of watching over dogs and raising my own puppies and bulldogs. I have a dog sat for senior dogs who have extensive and special needs including my own senior english bulldog who had cancer and despite that, lived to be 13 years old. So naturally I have developed attention to detail when it comes dog's diet, administering meds and supplements, wiping, bathing, and taking care of skin conditions, etc. I love all dogs and will say I specialize in high maitenance flat nose breeds such as pugs, english, french bulldogs, and am well versed in tending to their stubborness (lol), breathing, health, and skin issues. My favorite experiences with dogs are spoiling them by cuddling, giving unlimited butt rubs, carrying them when they are lazy and treating them like babies (unless the owner specifically gives me specific instructions with how the dog should be disciplined).
“Joseph, is excellent as always. He’s not only watched our super high active German shepherd. He also watched our puppy and made him feel very welcome. Great experience every time! He’s my go too and I won’t use anyone else.”
“I highly recommend booking with Jenifer! I had never left my dog with anyone before and was very anxious, but she immediately made me feel comfortable and confident that Cariño would be in great hands. Before the stay, she welcomed us to her home so both Cariño and I could get familiar with the environment. Throughout the week Cariño was staying, Jenifer provided excellent communication, sending daily photos and updates that gave me peace of mind. She also took Cariño on two walks a day and treated her with great care. Overall, Jenifer exceeded my expectations, and I would absolutely trust her to watch Cariño again :).”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Jocelyn! ❤️ She took such amazing care of my sweet Buddy for five days, and I couldn't have asked for a more loving, kind, and thoughtful person to watch him. Throughout his stay, Jocelyn sent me so many adorable photos and videos, along with regular updates that truly gave me peace of mind. It was so comforting knowing Buddy was in such caring hands and being treated with so much love and affection. Jocelyn has such a warm and gentle heart, and it's clear she genuinely loves the animals she cares for. I am beyond grateful for the kindness, attention, and love she showed Buddy while I was away. Thank you so much, Jocelyn, for treating Buddy like family! We appreciate you more than you know and would absolutely love to have you watch him again. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby! 🐾💕”
“We had a great experience with Abigail. She took excellent care of our fur babies and provided us with daily updates on them along with a picture or two to help us relax and not worry about them.”
About: I have been a dog owner for over four decades. I have owned and cared for many breeds and it is a passion for me. My dogs are family. I will treat your dog(s) as part of my family. My back yard has a waterfall feature, two artificial turf areas for going potty and plenty of room to explore and play. I own two beagles, Sofia and Fiona. I am retired with a very flexible schedule. I have two beagles that are part of my family and included in my daily routine and activities. I live in a senior gated community with many other dog lovers. My yard is fenced. I have a waterfall feature in the back, two artificial turf areas to go potty and two playmates, Sofia and Fiona, my beagles. I have a crate if needed.
“Christine and Rodney are wonderful people! Nilla was so happy in their care. They followed all my instructions and made sure Nilla was well cared for. They are the only ones I will call to watch her for all my upcoming needs. I really recommend them!”
“Sandra was amazing to work with! She helped us with a very last minute change of plans and took fabulous care of our Patsy. She shared great photos and updates so we knew our baby was happy and safe. We will definitely be booking Sandra again!!”

We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Coco! We received daily updates with photos and messages that showed us exactly how Coco was doing, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town. It was clear that Coco was treated like part of the family.We are incredibly grateful for all the love, attention, and communication throughout Coco’s stay. We would absolutely trust her with Coco again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pet as if it were their own. Thank you for everything!
I wish I could give Karla 10 stars! Karla took excellent care of my elder pup. She is everything a doting parent could ask for. Loves all dogs, cares deeply, devoted to their care, responsive, professional, kind and more. She was also able to take him in with short notice. My 16yo pup has mobility issues and Karla jumped right in to give him special assistance, including using a special harness to help him walk and exercise. She was attentive to his needs. She kept in touch and sent me photos and videos. That really warmed my heart since I missed him so much! She even gave him a bath during the intense heat wave. She followed all instructions and totally loved on him. I'm grateful to have found Karla and you will be too! Thank you Karla for caring for my sweet pup.
Our little Pomeranian loved his stay with Estrella and her family. Estrella was very accommodating and communicative, sending us daily photos of Bowie lounging, running, smiling, sleeping, etc. That was a sweet touch that alleviated any concerns we had regarding how well our dog was adapting to his time away from home.

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 Lake Elsinore 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 Lake Elsinore 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 Lake Elsinore.
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 Lake Elsinore. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 Lake Elsinore 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.
