“Absolutely amazing! My dog is not easy to handle, he’s aggressive, he’s 90lbs, not friendly with other dogs or cats. ReShan was so patient and kept us updated every single day. He worked with him and gained his trust. The videos were definitely a plus. If you’re debating, I say go with ReShan!! He’s a great choice and he takes safety precautions to keep your pet safe and secure.”
“This was my first time using Rover. Couldn't have asked for a smoother process. Taryn took my two pups in on a last minute boarding request, and took great care of them. She even bathed them prior to pick up! We will definitely be using them again for future bookings.”
“We had a great experience boarding our dog with Michael during Thanksgiving holidays. Our dog Alfie loves to play with other dogs so he was excited from the start to have Pita as a new friend. Michael shared photos and updates with us throughout his stay and offered that we could stop by to visit anytime during Alfie’s stay if we wanted. At pickup we could tell our dog had a great time and though he was happy to see us he looked very happy and comfortable with his new friends, Pita and Michael. We hope to board with Michael again!”
“Megan was kind, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. She kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and really took the time to get to know our dog. Her consistent communication was very comforting, and she quickly built our trust with how attentive and caring she was. We will absolutely be using Megan again.”
“Farin always takes great care of our dog! We love the updates she sends and never have any worries. Her backyard is great and our dog loves playing with her dog, Buster. We highly recommend using Farin to watch your pup!”
“All I can say is WOW! Was visiting a friend in Fresno and needed a place for my Chihuahua to hang out overnight as the dog and my friend’s cat ate not that fond of each other. What a fortuitous find in Reza. So welcoming. He made everything so easy. He was wonderful at accommodating me at the last minute.Terrific communication—I think I got more pictures and updates on her overnight stay than I’ve gotten in an entire week-long stay elsewhere And his teenage daughter was great with her. And Reza was so understanding when I was late to pick her up. I so appreciate that as I was a little frantic about it and he reassured me it was OK. Highly recommend this wonderful, kind dog sitter. A perfect, worry free stay!”
“Wonderful sitter, took many pics and videos of our boy and even brushed his thick crazy fur out for us. Had constant access to outside and walked him often. Responded quickly! He seemed very happy when he came home!”
“Such a blessing we found her. She took the request last minute after another sitter canceled. Jasleen answered immediately and was happy to video chat to discuss care instructions for our dogs. She was patient and loving with them. She gave us lots of updates. She is very driven organized, and responsible. We have complete confidence in her and would overwhelmingly recommend her to anyone else.”
About: Ive always been an animal lover who has treated animals as their own. They have feelings, they’re no different than us and deserve all the love in the world I have a normal 7-4 work day. I’m usually always looking for walks after work and I’m home no later than 4:15pm. Playing with my own pets makes me so happy and that’s what I look forward to every day I care for them extremely well. I’m kind of an anal person so the cleanliness of it all has to be 10/10. I clean daily, multiple times a day and make sure their foods and waters are always fresh
“Very great experience. This was our first time leaving our dogs. Dogs were happy when we arrived for pick up. She also gave them a bath. I was sent daily pictures/videos, which gave me peace of mind. Lourdes was very responsive with any concerns. She was very flexible with the times we needed. I would definitely use her again!”
“It was first time boarding my dogs at all. We had met Derek when he watched at our dogs once at the house and really liked him. He has a great attitude, easy to talk to, knowledgeable about dogs, and my dogs were relaxed with him. It took them time to get comfortable at his place, but it didn’t take long. Both were very tired when we picked them up. I would recommend him whether it’s watching them during the day or boarding your dogs with him. We have 2 happy pups and hoping to do it again.”

“Corrinna is a sweet and loving sitter. She sent videos and updated me on how my dogs were doing. I really know how my dogs liked the sitter by how they act when they come home. When I took my dogs home, they immediately got into their routine. Thier moods were normal as if I never left them. I was very pleased to see my dogs acting themselves after an overnight stay. Corrinna listened to all my instructions and was very loving to my dogs.”
“This is our second time using Joelle and both of our pups were SO excited to see her when we dropped them off. This was extremely comforting and we always know they are gonna have a great time with her!”
“This was the absolute BEST experience we have had! Remi and Cooper absolutely loved being with Lisa and her two pups. They were able to play, be taken care of, and enjoyed every second of their stay. We highly recommend Lisa!”

“We have booked Ricky previously, and both times we were so pleased with the care she gave our dogs. We have one dog who loves belly rubs and naps, while the other dog is very high energy, and Ricky handled both of them well. Communication was easy - she sent updates daily and was responsive to any questions I had. She has a calm and kind way about her, and we hope to book with her again.”
“This was our second time with Scott, our furry baby loves him so much!! Scott takes such good care of him!! Excellent job, will continue to use his services again!! Thank you so much”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Malaga
Although Benny had an accident inside Elizabeth’s home, she was understanding and took it it has him marking his territory. She did set absorbent pads just in case, sent me fotos with updates, and she was kind enough to let me extend my time away since I wasn’t able to arrive at the time I agreed to pick him up.

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 Malaga 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 Malaga.
<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 Malaga 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.
