“Maverick has been with Derek and Leslie twice so far and he loves it! He’s always well taken care of and has a great time. They are incredibly flexible with my schedule and super responsive. I would recommend sending your pups here!”

“Nancy was amazing. The best dog sitter we’ve ever had! I felt so comfortable leaving Maple with her, as I can tell she truly loves like her own. Maple will be back!!!”

“Ariana was amazing with Kane. I knew right when I met her that he would be in great hands. She respected all my wishes for his care. I got updates everyday and he had a smile on his face in one of his photos. I wouldn’t just trust anyone with my dog, but Ariana. Thank you so much for caring for him while I was away. You’re truly an amazing, kind and gentle person. Kane and I appreciate you!”

“Lots of photo and video updates! Sharon & Henry are so kind and the dogs really feel safe with them. The extra love and care to make sure my boys felt safe after we moved here and it was my first time going out of town, made us all feel so much better. 10/10 would recommend booking with them!”

“Chino loved loved loved his visit with Cecily! The puppy oasis/park and activities available here make it like a resort away from home. Communication and photos were consistent and I felt At ease while away from my baby. We will100% be back again 10/10”


“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of Buttercup. It really comes across how much Nanci loves dogs, and I felt like our dog was in great hands. I really appreciated all the updates and photos too. Many thanks!”

“Marie took care of my two miniature schnauzers and my large labradoodle overnight at her home. We did a meet a greet with her dog beforehand and all the dogs got along great. I was sent updates with pictures throughout the day. Both days the heat was 100 degrees, so the dogs got to stay in the house with Marie for much of the day which was a great relief to me. I will definitely use Marie again for my three dogs.”

“Julie was super accommodating and able to meet our last minute request, which was awesome! Her home was very lovely and the yard was a good size for the dogs to run about. I absolutely love how the dogs come through the back door to the yard and have a little "containment" area so that their leashes can come off and then be let in to meet the other little furbabies. On the last day/evening, we were going to head back down to Southern California via car, and she asked if we needed the pups fed. She was so thoughtful and our little buddies were nice and full for the long trip.”

“Jamie & family were again amazing with Millie during this second stay with them which was much longer than the first. Excellent communication & updates. Highly recommend!”

“Sarswati and her family took such wonderful care of Sadie while we were away. She kept us updated every day with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Sadie was doing well. Her family is incredibly kind, welcoming, and truly knows how to care for dogs. It was clear that Sadie was loved and well cared for throughout her stay. We will absolutely be booking with Sarswati again in the future. Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of Sadie!”

“I left my German Shepherd, Buddy, with Lori and Mike, and they did an excellent job watching him. They have a nice enclosed backyard where Buddy enjoyed frolicking and exploring. Buddy is an older dog and has some extra needs, including medications, and all his needs were well taken care of. Buddy came home happy and mellow as usual. I will definitely use their services again should I need them.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 9, starting with family dogs and cats. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or even giving a much-needed bath, I’ve had plenty of practice (and a few splashes!). Over the years, I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for family and friends, and I enjoy every moment spent with furry companions. You can trust that your pets will be in loving, reliable hands with me. Whether it’s cuddles or playtime, I’m here to make sure they’re happy and safe, just like they’re my own! I work part-time from home, and I attend college online. I have plenty of time to take care of furry friends, and I’m available for most of the day! I finish my work and assignments in the early morning, so anytime after 7AM I’m available! I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in my home. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, fresh food and water, and a calm environment where pets can relax. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine and needs, and I always make their safety and happiness a priority.
“Kierstin took exceptional care of our dogs, Maddie and Tank. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in a safe, loving environment. I received daily updates and adorable photos that showed how much they were enjoying their stay. Her attention to detail and the affection she and her family gave our pets were truly heartwarming. I definitely plan to use her services again whenever we need them. Highly recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Nimbus
We were concerned about our reactive dog being too much of a handful for a dog sitter but he did great with Derek and Leslie. They were very patient and understanding of his behaviors and after awhile he relaxed and started playing with other dogs. They sent pictures and updates daily and were good about responding to questions while we were gone. They were very accommodating to what our dogs needs were. My concerns melted away a little at a time and we would definitely bring him to stay with them again.

Once again, Troy & Patricia took wonderful care of our dog Shasta while we traveled out-of-state. The daily photos and updates were very much appreciated, and Shasta seemed to have a great time going on numerous walks, eating treats, and getting lots of personalized attention! Highly recommended.

Inger watched our girl Maple while we were away getting married, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for her! We were a little nervous about trusting someone with Maple during such an important weekend, but from the moment we met Inger, she made us feel completely comfortable. She was so warm and welcoming, and we immediately knew Maple was going to feel right at home with her. We especially appreciated the undivided attention and love she gave Maple, as well as the sweet pictures she sent us while we were away. Inger was also incredibly thoughtful about knowing we were busy with our wedding and didn’t want to overwhelm us with updates. She made sure to get an emergency contact ahead of time just in case she needed anything, which gave us even more peace of mind. We will definitely book again in the future!

Marian did an amazing job caring for my dog Charlotte for five nights in my home. She was professional and respectful throughout. Although it was my first time meeting someone through the Rover website, upon meeting her, she had my full trust. Charlotte is a very active dog and can be a handful. Marian took her to the dog park every day and kept her busy with play time in the evening. She communicated with me regularly and sent photos so I didn't have to worry. I am sure Charlotte missed us, but we came home to a happy dog. I feel lucky to have found a person to help us care for Charlotte who is as kind and knowledgeable as Marian. I hope to have her dog sit for me again in the future.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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.
95% of sitters in Nimbus 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 Nimbus 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 Nimbus.
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 Nimbus. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Nimbus 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.
