From beach outings and long walks to fun playtime activities, she made every day an adventure for him. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Benny and treated him like her own.

“Ruo was an amazing dog sitter for my little pup! She had him for 5 days while we were away and I could tell he was super happy and well loved. She was great about keeping me updated on his day and sending pictures which I really appreciated. Honestly I think she is the best sitter we have ever had! Highly recommend and we will absolutely use her again.”
“I know my dog was well taken care of and happy with Manli. She was super communicative and shared daily photo updates, which I appreciated. She made sure to ask about anything she should know about my dog before I left for my trip. I would definitely recommend her and would board my dog with her again.”
“Patrina is an outstanding Rover host. She is responsive, responsible, and provided multiple daily updates. My dog had a fantastic time during her stay, becoming good friends with Patrina's well-behaved dog, King. Patrina went the extra mile with walks, park visits, and off-leash hikes. She treated my dog like her own, allowing her on the bed and as her lap companion. I highly recommend Patrina for your Rover needs!”

“Junoa was absolutely amazing with our dog, Luna! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. Junoa kept us updated throughout our trip with lots of pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Luna had an incredible time and became great friends with Junoa's dog, Diablo. It was obvious from all the photos and updates that she was getting plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care. We could tell Luna felt right at home. We are so grateful to have found Junoa and wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. If you're looking for someone who truly cares for your dog as if they were her own, I highly recommend Junoa!”
“Annie is a dedicated animal lover! My dog Scooby usually hates people, but after a week of boarding with her he already grew to love her. She sends so many pictures and videos and is very insightful and knowledgeable about dogs and their peculiar behaviors. She seems to understand Scooby completely! Annie is super responsive. I definitely recommend booking her 🥰”
About: My love for animals started in 2010 when I welcomed Luna, my first dog, into my life. I raised her from a puppy, and she became a very special part of my family. In 2018, my husband and I adopted our first cat, and in 2019, we welcomed another beautiful kitty. I cared for both of them until 2022, when we moved to the United States. They stayed with our family in Colombia. We also had a Chihuahua here in the United States, which gave me additional experience caring for small dogs. Through these experiences, I've learned how important patience, love, responsibility, and attention are when caring for animals. I'm a very affectionate, attentive, and responsible person. I truly believe pets are family members, and they deserve to be treated with kindness and respect. I live in East Palo Alto with my husband and our daughter. We currently have no pets of our own, and our home has a private, fully fenced backyard. I will be the sole caregiver responsible for all pet care services. Although my husband and daughter live with me, I will personally provide all pet care, supervision, feeding, and walks. No other household members will be responsible for caring for the pets. I understand Rover's policy regarding minors. My daughter will always be supervised, and I understand that individuals under 18 are not covered by the Rover Guarantee. I prefer caring for one pet at a time so I can provide personalized attention in a peaceful and loving environment. I welcome small and medium-sized dogs and cats that are comfortable around children. I would love to give your furry family member a safe, comfortable, and loving place to stay while you're away! 🐶🐱❤️ I currently work part-time and have availability during the afternoons, evenings, and weekends to care for pets in my home. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care. On weekends, I have more flexibility to dedicate time to my furry guests. My goal is to provide a comfortable and loving environment where pets feel like part of the family. I always communicate with pet owners to make sure I can accommodate their pet's routine and individual needs. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my priorities! 🐾❤️ I live in a cozy family home in East Palo Alto with my husband and our daughter. We have a private, fully fenced backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time. We currently have no pets of our own, which allows me to provide a peaceful environment and personalized attention to each furry guest. I prefer caring for one pet at a time so I can focus on their individual needs, feeding schedules, playtime, and daily routines. I welcome small and medium-sized dogs and cats that are comfortable around children. For cats, I provide a calm indoor environment where they can feel safe and comfortable. I always follow the owner's instructions and am happy to send photos and updates throughout their stay. I want every pet to feel loved, protected, and at home while their family is away! ❤️
“Cali loved her overnight boarding time with Alexa D. This was my first time as a Dog Mom using Rover and Alexa made me feel totally at ease leaving my high energy pup with her. She was an attentive communicator and patient with all of my questions. We had a meet and greet beforehand where we shared information and anything noteworthy about Cali. Alexa's knowledge of dogs, her experience, and all of the ways she cares for them were impressive. Thank you Alexa for taking such care of my baby girl!”

Maggie is a dream dog sitter. (My dog spent the weekend with her). One of the many reasons I know was that my sometimes slow-to-warm chihuahua fell in love with her and also that she ate all her meals. If she was nervous, she wouldn't have eaten Maggie took gentle and meticulous care of her and provided me with lot of pictures and updates so I could see things were going extremely well. My daughter - who is very picky about who can take care of our pets said - " You found your dog sitter."
Diana took great care of our pup during our weekend away. Great communication and handled her pills she needed no problem. My dog loves it too - as we were leaving, she wiggled her butt, turned around and nose booped them to get one last set of pets as if to say thanks and goodbye. Was so sweet.
Shannon was absolutely amazing with Benny! She went above and beyond to make sure he had a wonderful time. From beach outings and long walks to fun playtime activities, she made every day an adventure for him. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Benny and treated him like her own. I loved knowing he was not only well cared for but also having the best time! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Shannon to anyone.
I am so fortunate that Maria Luisa and Fabio could take care of Isabella while I was away. They are very caring people and dog lovers. Along with their young son, they create a warm, welcoming environment. In addition, they wanted to know about Isabella which I believe helped make her feel very much at home during her stay.
Lisa took such good care of my little guy. She updated me with photos daily and kept me informed on his activities for the day. I felt completely comfortable being out of town knowing he was so well cared for. I will definitely continue to have Lisa watch him whenever I go out of town. I’m so grateful for all of the love and care she gave my pup.
So happy that we found Matthew, Katelyn, and their 2 sweet kids to watch our pups for the weekend! It was clear that they love dogs and with my Henry and Clover being classic Velcro dogs I knew they would get plenty of playtime and snuggles in. They also live in a great quiet neighborhood close to an amazing dog park which is perfect for my pups. Would definitely recommend!
We absolutely love Cesar! He is always so kind, attentive, patient, and accommodating. His communication is excellent, and we really appreciate how flexible and thoughtful he is with our dogs. Nimbus and Polaris absolutely adore him and are always so happy and comfortable in his care, which gives us such peace of mind when we’re away. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust so much and couldn’t ask for a better regular sitter. Cesar is always our go-to, and we highly recommend him!

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.
93% of sitters in North Fair Oaks 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 North Fair Oaks 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 North Fair Oaks.
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.

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.

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.
