“Excellent! My pets were well taken care of as well as we were updated throughout their stay with videos, pictures and messages. First time having them stay with someone and I couldn’t have ended up with someone better. Thank you for you and your family taking care of my girls!”
“She’s great! Quick response time, friendly, sends updates on how pet is doing with the new environment, as well as cute/silly things your pet does. She really cares about your pet, and understand that being away is not only not hard on the pet but also the owner.”
“Kiana did such a great job watching our dogs! They were so well loved, and she sent us great photos and videos of their visit. Kiana was such a pleasure to work with as well. I would give more than five stars if I could, and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“This was our first time booking with Carola and we had a great experience. Our little Dukey boy loved his stay and hanging out with her pups, Killer and Prince. Duke almost didn't want to come home! 😂 I didn't have phone connection during my time away and she still sent daily updates with pictures, even though I didn't respond. Highly recommend Carola for your pet's boarding needs!”
About: I have cared for dogs for many years. I can walk, feed, and play with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I will treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe and loved. It's a large part of my daily routine. I have three dogs, all different breeds, which means I take care of them differently because of their different personalities. I have a part-time job; however I work a maximum of 6 hours and I am free before and after work. Right now, I don't offer in-home care at my residence; however, when caring for a client's pet, their safety is my priority. I make sure fences and doors are secure and pay close attention to any illnesses or special needs.
“Brittney was awesome. It was my first time ever leaving my fur baby with a stranger and she made me feel complete comfortable. She took such good care of my baby during the 4th of July! She even provided updates with pictures. Will definitely be rebooking!”
“Anissa took amazing care of my golden retriever while I was away. From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease leaving my pup with her. She welcomed him into her home like family and kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which really gave me peace of mind. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s obvious Anissa genuinely cares about the dogs she watches—her home is safe, clean, and super dog-friendly. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“I can’t express enough how awesome, kind and reliable Guadelupe was with my two pups. My dog sitter cancelled at the last moment the day before I had plans. I have never been on Rover.com so I was a little hesitant at first but I read lots of reviews on it and I found Guadelupe. Her profile feedbacks were all so wonderful so I decided to message her. And right away she responded quickly and everytime. Once I dropped off my pups to her she texted me a little later and kept me updated throughout the evening and night with pictures of how happy they were. I showed my friends the pics of how happy my dogs looked and it made my heart so full. I would definitely love for her to watch them again in the future with out any hesitation. I 100% recommend her. Thank you Guadelupe!!”
“Sarah has watched our dogs twice overnight now. Sarah is dependable (which is something we’ve struggled with with other sitters on Rover). I forgot to message ahead and remind her we were coming yesterday but she remembered. Our dogs were happy to come back, which the best part. She listens to what you ask for with caring for your fur babies. We will continue to book with her.”
“We were looking for someone who could dogsit our 1.5-year-old Shih Tzu for a whole week, and I just had a good feeling when I saw Kimmie’s profile. Since it’s Milo’s first time boarding, we decided to do an overnight trial run first. We’re so glad we found Kimmie! She’s amazing, very responsive, and sends updates, pictures, and videos of our Milo. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! Highly recommend! 🐶❤️”
About: I’ve been a dog lover since I was young, so taking care of dogs comes naturally to me. For the past 6 years, I’ve had 2 amazing & loving dogs — 1 poodle & 1 lhasa apso. I know how important it is for someone to take care of your babies while you’re away especially when you have other important matters to attend to (I totally understand this)! I promise to give the same love & care to your babies as much as I give mine. From walks, to playtime, to cuddles — your pet is safe and at home with me 🥰🐶 My husband & I are almost always at home & will be able to take care of your fur baby. I’ll make sure to give your babies frequent potty breaks & all the necessary playtime, cuddles, and attention they need to feel comfortable & loved 🥰 I know how important safety & trust are when it comes to caring for your babies. I assure you that I will provide them with plenty of attention & care. I will make sure they get frequent potty breaks, are well-fed, and feel safe around me & my furbaby. We’ll treat your baby like family 🥰
“My 1st time using the Rover app. I wanted someone close by and after looking at others I went with Manuel G. He kept me informed of my dogs progress and texted pictures. Manuel followed my feeding schedule each day she was there. My dog is very laid back and chills on the floor or couch. This past 4th of July he kept my dog calm when she would get scared of the fireworks around the neighborhood. When I picked up my dog she acted the same way as if she were home. I recommend Manuel G to watch your pets. I will rebook with him again when I go on another trip because I know my dog will be well taken care of.”
“Second time booking with Cami and she outdid my expectations yet again! She is very attentive to the animals needs as well as the owners making sure you’re updated day to day. She was so very sweet and my animals took to her so quickly. 10/10 would recommend and book with her again!”
About: I’m a Navy veteran who loves animals! I am reliable, patient and will treat your pets like my own while giving them lots of love. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding and lots of attention. I’m available throughout the week and weekends! I follow each pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll handle feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks and of course lots of love and attention!

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 List home-away-from-home, 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 List.
<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 List 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 , 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 .
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.
