“Jennifer was a great sitter for our 2 large breed pups. She gave us a lot of updates and photos and took great care of them. We felt really safe leaving our dogs with her. Her home was clean and secure. I highly recommend sitting with Jennifer and I would take my pups back again in the future. Thank you Jennifer! ☺️”
“So happy we found such a wonderful sitter for our 2 babies! We were nervous the 1st night since they had never been boarded before, but Emmeline provided lots of updates that helped reassure me they were in great hands. We booked a 2nd stay as we were going out of town for a wedding, and the girls really seem to be loving it there. She kept them fed on time, lots of pets/cuddles and play time with regular walks. Thanks again Emmeline!! The girls are looking forward to seeing you again soon!”
“Celia was very kind, understanding and helpful she accepted my last minute request. Great person and I felt extremely safe leaving my husky with her, she made sure to attend ALL my dogs needs. She made sure my dog was safe and loved for her stay! I absolutely recommend her to anyone needing someone to take care of their pet! 10/10 service and very trustworthy.”
“I cannot recommend Steven enough! My dog is quite skittish with strangers and has a very specific routine at home, so I was nervous about boarding. Steven was incredibly understanding and listened to all my concerns, but what impressed me most was how he prioritized reading her body language over just following my instructions blindly. He understood that she might behave differently in a new environment and adapted brilliantly. Despite the challenges of a different household dynamic—managing a 'grazer' around his own dog and mirroring our busy family routine—he made her feel right at home. By the first night, she was eating, playing, and even sleeping in her crate! If you want a sitter who truly understands dog psychology and provides personalized care, Steven is the one.”
“Mk was amazing! My dog had a great time during the stay, got plenty of attention and playtime. Mk was super attentive, friendly, and made sure my puppy was comfortable and happy. I also got updates throughout the day which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable and loving care for their furry friend!”
“Allison was so great with my two dogs! This is my first time with rover and I was extremely nervous to leave my dog with someone, however, she made me feel at ease with the whole process. She sent pictures and updates throughout the day and was super flexible! Both of my dogs had a great time I’m sure, they were both so comfortable (which doesn’t happen often)! 10/10 recommend Allison!”
“Margerita was very accommodating and understanding during the entire stay. I was worried about leaving my dog for the first time, but she communicated well and helped my husband and I ease our mind. My Australian shepherd is an anxious dog, but when I picked her up she seemed very happy and taken care of. I could tell that Margerita was able to handle my dog incredibly well and it made me extremely happy to have my dog socialized with Margeritas pets. I highly recommend her services, and I will definitely book through her in the future!”
“Nadine is the only one we trust with our dog. I drive from the bay area to Modesto just to take drop our pup off sometimes in hours of traffic. If that doesn't tell how good she is then idk what else will 😂”
“Our guy has some special needs requiring meds, a strict diet, etc. Stephanie heard my concerns and asked all the right questions. It was easy to trust her. She and her family cared for our guy for several days/nights. They treated him like family tending to his needs and showering him with attention & fun. We look forward to the next time we turn Stephanie to support our guy's care.”
“Awesome boarding experience! I really appreciated the frequent pics and videos. I felt that my dog was safe and happy at Tracey's farm! Will definitely contact her for future needs!!”
“I was a bit apprehensive leaving my dog Buckley with a stranger. In the past he has had bad experiences being boarded while I was away and has come home stressed and underweight. My dog loved his stay with Amy. She sent daily photo updates. He really seemed to love Amy and her dogs and came home happy and healthy. Amy was great at communicating and even took him on for a few extra days when my plans changed. I will def have Buckley stay with Amy again!”
“Ana took great care of our two pups last minute, she was very communicative & always provided updates to keep us at ease. I highly recommend Ana, our pups looked so happy when we picked them up!”

About: I believe taking care of a dog is like taking care of a baby, only with fur. I have 9 plus yrs of experience with dogs. I’ve dog sat for family & friends.

I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, daycare (if applicable), and pet sitting in your home during the day. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Being attentive. Having a routine is what I believe pets thrive on to be an obedient. I’ve trained my dog in the past to be great walker from a puppy to adult age and trained when it was time relieve themselves outside. I’ve learned when you use repetitive words they will eventually know what command it is. Consistency and routine is key.
“Alyssa and her family were absolutely the best. My little Shih Tzu gets kind of shy and nervous but he warmed up so fast. I was sent update photos and I could tell my dog felt at home. If I’m being honest, he seemed not as excited when I showed up. Definitely recommend and will use this family again. Thank you isn’t enough!”

Highly recommend! Our dog sitter took amazing care of our dogs over the weekend. They were attentive, reliable, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip. Our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well loved. Thank you for taking such great care of our furry family members—we’ll definitely book with you again!

We had a great experience with Taylor and Brian taking care of our dog, Kellie. Taylor’s background in a veterinary clinic made us feel very confident in her care. She clearly loves dogs and has a lot of experience, especially with fostering. Caring for animals is a natural calling for her. Kellie was happy and well taken care of. We will definitely be using them again for Kellie in the future!

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Modesto 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 Modesto.
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.
You and your Modesto 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.
