“Mario was AWESOME! We left our senior rescue with him for 10 days and now we feel like our dog has a home away from home. He regularly walks the dogs near a beautiful duck pond in his back yard. His communication is perfect — and we really appreciated that he sent regular updates / photos. Highly recommend—- we will certainly have him care for our pup again in the future!!!”
“Ming-Ching took great care of our energetic pup Brodie! She was thoughtful about our meet-and-greet to make sure the intro with Koko went smoothly, and I loved all the pictures and updates she sent during Brodie’s stay. She clearly gave Brodie lots of attention and love! Brodie will be happy to stay with Ming-Ching and Koko again.”
“We recently boarded Charlie with Joyce and Kitty for the first time, and we couldn’t be happier. They sent beautiful photos and kept us updated throughout his stay, which gave us such peace of mind. It’s clear Charlie was well loved and cared for. So grateful to have found them on Rover — highly recommend!”
“Absolute Best Care for Sesame! I cannot recommend Kristine highly enough! She watched our dog, Sesame, over the weekend, and she was absolutely wonderful. From the very beginning, it was clear just how kind, patient, and genuinely nice she is. She treated Sesame like one of her own, giving her the absolute best care, attention, and love. It brought us total peace of mind knowing Sesame was in such safe, affectionate hands while we were away. If you are looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and attentive sitter who goes above and beyond, look no further. Sesame can’t wait to hang out with her again! Thank you so much for taking such incredible care of our pup!”
“Andy and his family took really good care of our dog. He sent us photos throughout the stay and even took our dog to relax outside at a coffee shop. I highly recommend Andy as a sitter.”
“Janesa is a great dog sitter! Our dog can be extra sensitive so we can tell when we drop him off and he squeals with excitement that he likes it! Janesa sends cute updates and we vacation in peace knowing she’s taking great care of him”
“James did an excellent job with a long-weekend care of my dog. My rescue senior canine has serious human trust and personal space issues. I discussed these in advance with James, and he was willing to accommodate my pup’s needs. The stay went very well, and James communicated with me (pictures) every day. It was clear James cared very much about my pup and made the stay as pleasant and calm as possible for him. I recommend James for pet care and I will use him again when I travel and need a safe place for my canine.”
“Annie was wonderful with Boba! She was very responsive and sent lots of photos and videos during his stay, which we really appreciated. Boba looked so happy and had a great time playing with the other pups. We could tell he was very well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Micaela, thank you so much for taking such great care of Sunny Sunshine! It was wonderful to have a little getaway, knowing that he was in your capable hands. Thanks again and happy holidays to you.”
“Grace is beyond amazing! She is extremely communicative, consistently giving us updates and pictures of Valentina. Very loving and kind towards our dog gave her really nice attention and daily walks. Great!”
“Ana was amazing! She gave us the best daily updates with pictures and info on the highlights of their day. She had lots of pictures of our dog on walks with her, and it seemed like our dog even got to the point of playing with her cat by the end! Ana was a kind and attentive dog sitter, and we will definitely be using her again!!”
“Stella had so much fun at this stay! Diana and Mike were lovely. Diana helped our doggie with her ears and Mike took her to the park and played fetch daily, and the sent some cute pictures too. Stella was so relaxed when she came home; it was obvious she was well cared for and had a great time.”
“Rocky came back calm and we can tell he gets treated very well with Zhenting's family. So glad we found her as we love she has an enclosed backyard space and she is very attentive. We love seeing how Rocky is doing throughout his stay with all the photos she sends!”
“Kathryn and Jason were amazing pet sitters for our labradoodle while we were away! Great communications, easy to schedule drop off/ pick up, and most importantly they were very caring for our pup. She clearly had a great time with them. We will definitely book with them again!”
“We had a great experience with Yijiu! She was super responsive, kind, and very attentive to Leo. It was clear that she took great care of him, and Leo had such a fun time playing with her family. She was also very detail-oriented and kept us updated throughout his stay. We would definitely book with her again!”
“Ashwin took great care of Jordy and he could not have had a better stay! Jordy loved his trip to the dog park and he had a great time with Ashwin’s dog, Chewy. Ashwin sent lots of photos and updates too!”
“I am very thankful for Yang who took excellent care of Howie! She is very detail oriented and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable. I could quickly tell from the photos that he was having a great time. She was patient as he adjusted to his new space and in no time, it was like Howie was on a vacation of this own ! I would definitely recommend Yang to others. We plan to use Yang again in the future.”
About: I’m a caring, responsible dog lover who treats every pet like part of the family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give each dog. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, whether that means plenty of playtime and walks, extra patience with a shy dog, or a calm and comfortable environment for a senior pet. I’m also comfortable providing the patience and consistency that young dogs and puppies need as they learn good habits and adjust to new surroundings. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel happy, cared for, and at home while you’re away-and for you to have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work outside the home, but I'm intentional about making pet care a priority in my daily routine. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care to make sure they receive regular meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I'll follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Before booking, I'm happy to discuss your pet's specific needs and make sure my schedule is a good fit for them. When I'm home, your pet gets plenty of companionhsip, attention, and care in a calm, comfortable enviornment. Your pet will be treated like part of the family and receive plenty of love, attention, and individual care. I'll follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including meals, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications if needed, and plenty of companionship. For dogs, a typical day includes walks, outdoor time, play, and lots of attention and affection. For cats, I'll provide feeding, fresh water, litter-box care, playtime and companionship while also respecting their need for quiet time and personal space. I provide a calm, comfortable home environment where pets can relax and feel safe. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing while you're away. Every pet is different, so I'm happy to follow your instructions and adjust their care to their individual personality, routine, and needs.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Laurel
Kristine has been (and is) the best dog sitter that we’ve had. She is kind, flexible, and willing to do what it takes to make sure our dog, and we as the owners, are taken care of. She is great with communication and sends several updates with photos throughout the day. She has cooked our dog food when he ran out of food and has cared for him after his dental procedure, giving me several medications, multiple times a day. She helps socialize him with other dogs, takes him out on outings, and cares for him as if he was her own dog. We are so thankful we’ve found Kristine, and know our dog is in the best hands when he is with her.
Star has not stayed for long periods of time outside our home and seemed to be absolutely delighted to be staying 11 days with Kitty and Joyce. My guess is she is already missing having other playmates around. Kitty and Joyce also kept us up to date and sent photos every day which was wonderful. We will definitely be asking Kitty and Joyce to dog sit again during our next trip
Kimberlin was an amazing Rover for our precious dog, Ridge. She took the time to do a meet and greet a few days before which I always appreciate. Through the entire stay she had good communication and Ridge always looked so happy and comfortable in photos. You could tell he was well taken care of in Kimberlin’s care! Easy to recommend :)
Our Emmi loves visiting Na when we go out of town. Emmi is well loved and treated with TLC. I'm very thankful for the daily pictures and videos of Emmi. I know she is enjoying her day playing,walking and getting brushed. We do not hesitate to leave town anymore knowing our Emmi is in the best of hands.
Evie and Michael did a phenomenal job taking care of our dogs Oliver and Delilah! It was our first time boarding our dogs to dog sitters. I was very nervous whether our dogs would get comfortable or feel separation anxiety before boarding. Throughout the boarding, Evie was very attentive and communicative how our dogs were doing and sending us their pictures. Our dogs bonded with them really well and I could tell Evie was taking such a good care of them. We were fully able to enjoy our trip without worrying about them at all! Thank you again so much and our dogs seem really enjoy spending time with you both. We will book again in the future!
Annie watched our dog Churro for 5 nights. She sent us multiple pictures throughout the day and looked like he was having a blast hanging out with the other dogs! He got a lot of walks and a lot quality time outside ☀️ we appreciate Annie for taking care of our Churro 🥰
Highly recommend! I received plenty of photo updates of Phillip, including some great pictures of him having fun at the park. He looked so happy and comfortable, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. I really appreciated the communication and knowing he was being well cared for. I’m so grateful and would definitely book again!
Ivana was the best! The only reason I gave her 5 stars is because 6 was not available. She went above and beyond with ensuring my puppy was properly eating and even sent pictures about a potential skin issue. She also was very generous with pictures and videos and keeping me informed on what my puppy was doing. I can't recommend her enough.
Di C. is a wonderful caretaker! Our dog loves him. Whenever we go to his house, our dog runs out of the car straight to his door. He is extremely responsive to booking requests and texts, usually within a half hour or so, and has been available on short notice. He sends multiple videos per day to let me know that my dog is doing fine, and he provides updates of how things are going. Five stars!
Ana was amazing! She gave us the best daily updates with pictures and info on the highlights of their day. She had lots of pictures of our dog on walks with her, and it seemed like our dog even got to the point of playing with her cat by the end! Ana was a kind and attentive dog sitter, and we will definitely be using her again!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Laurel 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 Laurel.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Laurel 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.
