“Amanda is very nice,flexible and detailed person. We come to Horseshoe bend ,Id to visit and have to daycare my fur baby for 1 day. She was quick to response to my inquiry on Rover. When we arrived to her place, she understood that Morty needed sometimes for adjustment and provided us as much time as needed to be with him before we departed. She is knowledgeable about the dog behaviors as she has 3 dogs herself. I felt comfortable to leave Morty under her care. When we picked him up, he was happy and content. Definitely will reach out to Amanda again when we are in town next time !”
“Max LOVES visiting Hugh and Mary! He gets tummy rubs and prime spot on the bed while Mary does stuff n the computer. They love on him like he's their own. 😊 He was so happy and tired when we picked him up that he was out like a light as soon as we started driving home!”

“We had to find a dog sitter very last minute and reached out to Lika late at night. She responded quickly and made the whole process incredibly easy. She clearly communicated everything and set up a no-hassle appointment the very next morning. While Bella was with her, Lika was very responsive and even sent us a video of Bella playing with her family and having a great time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bella was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Lika — reliable, communicative, and truly caring. We’ll definitely be using her again!”
About: I love animals. I grew up with dogs, a cat and numerous other animals. I have taken care of my neighbors pets, friends and families pets whenever they have needed it. It’s always been a fun experience. I am a stay at home mom, so I have a wide-open schedule that can accommodate others pet schedules, all you have to do is send in the request. I have a nice home, all hardwood and vinyl flooring. I currently do not have any pets of my own at this time, which would work well to take care of others pets. I have a big fenced backyard, plenty of room to run around and explore and nice grassy area as well. We have a small child, he’s very curious about all animals, we would love for him to get know your animal too!
“Jasmine was great with Kona. We had a wonderful meet and greet and Kona slowly adjusted to the place. We received some photos of our girl and she was so happy getting to play with other doggies.”
“Barb took great care of my two dogs while my family was out of town for Thanksgiving. She was quick to respond to messages she sent pictures of the boys while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Caesar was the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! At the last minute, we had to take our 1 year old Iris American Staffordshire Terrier puppy with us on vacation, and needed a day care to watch her while we were snow boarding. We messaged him the morning of and he responded very quickly. I was nervous because of her separation anxiety, but she had a great time and because of his years of dog training, he was actually able to give us some tips to help with her anxiety! We will be having her stay with him every time we vacation in Big Bear and would recommend him to anyone. I would give more than 5 stars if I could!!!!!”
“It was my first time booking a dog sitter on the Rover app and I had anxiety of leaving my puppy with anyone. I’m so happy I decided to book with Paola, she is the sweetest lady and great with dogs included her own. My puppy had a great time spending the day with Paola and her puppy Katana. She took my puppy for walks and treated her like she was a part of her family. Paola made an effort to send me videos throughout the day which made me feel comfort knowing my puppy was in great hands! I have already booked my next dog sitting date with Paola and my little Rosie will be thrilled to see both Katana and Paola again. It’s such a relief when you know you can trust someone with your precious baby! Don’t think twice and book Paola for all your dog sitting needs, I know she will be my go to for all my dog sitting needs :)”
“we can’t say enough about the quality of care and love that dakota continues to give our big guy.. it’s a real comfort to know how well he’s cared for in her home and he sure enjoys his play days with trouble:)”
“This was our first sitting experience and it went so well. Jessica was very responsive and let us know our nervous girl was content and sent us a picture of her laying on the couch. Our girls were happy when we picked them up. I would rebook with her again. We had a last minute request for a later pick up and Jessica had no issue keeping them a little longer.”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Lucerne Valley commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 274 sitters in Lucerne Valley, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
