“Edith was fantastic!! We left our 16 year old dog with her for a week and were super nervous because we were hundreds of miles away, but Edith gave us so much peace of mind and constantly sent us updates with pictures and videos! Our little dog looked so content and spoiled! I would highly recommend trusting your pets with Edith! Thank you so much!”
“Vanessa and her family were really great with our dog Millie! She sent regular updates and pictures while we were away. Millie was very happy when I picked her up and she clearly loved the family.”
“We honestly couldn’t be happier with our experience! She is, without a doubt, the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. From the very beginning, she has been so caring, attentive, and thoughtful with our babies. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they are in such good hands while we’re away. She keeps us updated, follows their routine, and you can truly tell how much she cares about them. Seeing how comfortable and happy Lucas and Maui are with her means everything to us. We are so grateful for all the love and care she gives them. We couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of our babies.”
“Cheryl was awesome with our guys. It was the first time left them for a few days. Cheryl kept in constant communication with us letting us know know they were doing. She even took them on a little field trip :) We felt totally comfortable with Cheryl and will be using her again!”
“So grateful for Alyssa agreeing to our last minute request. Quick communication and thoroughness throughout. I felt comfortable leaving my pup with Alyssa. He came back happy and tired from all the adventures! Would highly recommend!”
“Kathleen and Bret take such good care of Bill, when we go on vacation we don’t even worry about him. And she always sends pics to show us how happy he is! They treat him like their own. We are so fortunate to have found her.”
About: I have cared for many kinds of dogs and have been sitting since I was a kid. And I am willing to make accommodations for your pet. I can spend as much time as needed with your pet, I am home most of the time. And will be able to walk and play with them regularly. I treat all pets as they are my own and am open to care instructions (such and walking and feeding preference) every pet is treated with love and respect.
“Cody seemed happy and less stressed when I picked him up from boarding. Emily and Sam communicated well and I could tell Cody felt comfortable around them. Will definitely be using them again!”
About: I have always grown up and cared for dogs my whole life, all sizes and different breeds. About 9 years ago I really went into depth with researching and studying how I can give the dogs around me a long healthy life, I worked at a pet store for 8 years as well and dived into the whole health of a pet. I am the family dog dietitian, babysitter, vet tech, trainer, and bather, photographer, and birthday thrower. I will care for your dog as my own, and will become one of its favorite humans. I am currently working full time, till the end of the year, but I am available after 4:30pm during the week to assist you with any needs. I am completely available Friday-Sunday! At the end of the year I will be dedicating myself to pets! I have a fenced front yard with grass, and a fenced backyard with cement. I have one small fur baby who is super friendly. I can always gate him in his room if your pup needs space or vise versa. Unless preferred otherwise, dogs are able to free roam the house. Beds and couches in home welcome pets. Kitchen and bathroom are wood floors, while the remainder of the home has carpet. I have a 2 story home both ends of the stairs are gated as well.
“Rodrigo and his gf were great doggie sitters! I got sent cute pictures! Our pups also obviously liked them and had a good time. Rodrigo was flexible with our last minute timing hiccup for drop off and he was nice enough to take our pups out with them to In-N-Out. Will definitely book him again if we need a sitter 😊”
“Kelly, thank you so much for taking such good care of Doby. I can tell in your disposition how much you care about dogs/animals in general and concern for making sure Doby was safe and well. Your regular updates and great communication gave me great peace of mind during my trip. Thank you for going above and beyond with Doby! 🐕🐾”
About: I’m a caring, dependable animal lover with years of personal experience caring for dogs. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, giving lots of attention, and keeping pets comfortable while their families are away. I’m patient and attentive, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care I give my own. I’m also comfortable following detailed instructions and caring for pets who may need a little extra patience or attention. I have a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I’m available throughout the week for drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting. I can work with your pet’s normal feeding, potty, walking, and bedtime routine and will do my best to accommodate each family’s schedule. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet parents, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and house rules. I keep pets supervised, make sure doors and gates are secure, and provide a calm, loving environment. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and well cared for.
About: Dogs and cats have always been a part of my home life since I was a child. I have raised puppies and kittens and currently live with my dog Willow and my cat, Monkey. I walk and hike frequently with y dog, and I am able to care for high energy dogs. I have a full-time job that allows me to work three days a week. The other four days a week I have a lot of flexibility to make myself available to care for your pet. I have a fenced yard, a pet, friendly home, and a lovely white Swiss Shepherd, who loves other animals. Anytime dogs are in my yard, I am always outside supervising them. They are just like my kids.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Nicklin
Paige is our go to dog sitter for our 3 pups everytime we go on vacation. She's very caring, sweet and communicative. She kept me updated with how my dogs were doing everyday which helped ease my mind. My dogs always came back so happy and refreshed from their stay with Paige, it's like a mini vacation for them as well. Once again thank you Paige for making my fur babies feel so comfortable in your home ☺️
Jayne and Gary are amazing pet sitters. My dog Ivy feels comfortable at their house. Ivy is a rescue who can be skittish but she's fine at Jayne and Gary's house and that tells me they treat my dog in a caring, gentle way. I really appreciate Jayne and Gary very much and will continue to request them in the future.

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 Nicklin 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 Nicklin.
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 Nicklin 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.
