“Judith was absolutely wonderful with our Golden Retriever girl, Sage! She was very communicative throughout the entire stay, providing us with regular updates that kept our minds completely at ease. It is clear that she is incredibly caring and attentive, treating Sage like one of her own. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and highly recommend Judith to anyone looking for top-notch care!”
“Geri was the best! Don't be fooled by her stern-looking profile photo; she is anything but! Super stylish and kind, with a huge heart. Our Roxy was very happy with her stay with Geri, and her home is beautiful, and every detail was accounted for in making it super doggy friendly. Her lil pup is also very sweet and got along very well with our picky, not-usually-a-dog-person dog, Roxy, which says a lot. Anyway, look no further, we highly recommend choosing Geri for your doggy needs!!”
“We love Louise and the care she provides for our dog, Sunny. She has cared for Sunny several times and always provides thoughtful updates and a warm, loving home while we’re away. We’re so grateful to have someone we trust so completely with our pup.”
“Lynn did a great job with Yogi! She has a nice place with a great patio where Yogi enjoyed hanging out with her dog, Lucy. Lynn gave Yogi some exercise with walks and visiting the dog park. She was also great about sending updates and pictures regularly. We look forward to using her services again in the future!”
“Thanks for sitting Kalea for a second time. We love you for taking good care of her. Enjoy Tahiti! Safe travels. I thought I would need a sitter. I forgot my sister-in-law is back from visiting her family. Be blessed.”
“Malissa was amazing . My dogs came back and passed out . So I know they had a good time . They will be coming back . She was so sweet and allowed them to just be dogs . That’s exactly what they needed .”
“Awesome pet sitter. It was the first time we have been away from our dog. Sam was very communicative and sent lots of pics and videos. It put my mind at ease, knowing our little Teddy was well taken care of while we were away. ❤️”
“Mike and Stephen were great! Communicative, very knowledgeable about animals and made sure our Preston was very comfortable! We got daily updates and pictures and felt at ease that Preston was well taken care of while we were away. We did a meet and greet a few days beforehand and their house is very clean and set up for perfectly for dogs. They let them have free roam of the house and are always home so your baby is never alone. Preston came back happy, clean, and tired from all the fun ☺️ we will definitely use them again in the future. Highly recommend!! Well worth the $ to know your fur baby is in the right hands while you are away.”
“Tony was amazing with my Joey. Communication was perfect. Every time I was wondering about Joey, Tony already had a picture and update for me. The yard is clutch for Joey because he is a high energy dog. Highly recommend Tony and I will definitely use him again next time I need a dog sitter.”
“Sierra was great with our 8-month-old puppy! She sent pictures every day and we knew he was getting excellent, loving attention. We highly recommend Sierra to care for your beloved pet!”
“I couldn't be happier with Larry's care of the kids and neither could the kids. My elderly Westie came home very perky after his stay. The lab had a new friend to play with and our little girl was treated like the princess she thinks she is. I highly recommend Larry to sit your furry friends.”
“Michael is, as he describes in his profile, a true dog lover. He took great care of our boy, and was kind enough to update us with the cutest pics. We also appreciate his accomodating our later -than-expected pick up time. Thank you again for another wonderful Rover experience!”
“Brandon and Billy took fantastic care of Spencer while we were away. They kept us updated throughout his stay with photos. They went above and beyond to make him feel right at home. While we hate to have to leave him while we travel, we are so grateful to know what good and caring people Brandon and Billy are to our pup.”
“As a first time cat owner, we (my husband and I) were very unsettled about leaving her with a complete stranger. We needn't have worried. Kimberly was truly the "cat whisperer" for both my cat and us. Kimberly sent pictures communicated with us every day. We really can't thank her enough. She even trimmed Lollipop's nails!”

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
96% of sitters in Mountain Center can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Mountain Center 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 Mountain Center.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mountain Center. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Mountain Center 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
