“Gaya was awesome! My dogs are a lot to handle but she met us before hand and she felt confident she could watch them for us. Very professional and communicative throught the whole process. Thank you so much for watching my hell hounds <3”
“Candy really took care of our boy Bentley while we were on vacation. This was his first time with a Rover sitter and we would definitely recommend and go back to Candy.”
“Zues loved his time with Carter. He was treated so well, my mom was afraid he would not want to go home with her. The smile on his face said it all. Cater played with him, sent us pictures. Some great actions shots. Our Zues is very active and loves the attention. Thank you Carter for an amazing week with Zues.”
“Booked Daniela a couple of weeks ago and just booked with her again this past weekend. She had great communication and provided lots of pictures and updates, which made me feel much more comfortable throughout the stay. I had never left my pets with someone I didn’t personally know before, so I was definitely nervous at first, but everything turned out great. She is very loving and caring with pets, which I really appreciated. I would definitely book with her again. The only downside for me was not being able to physically see where my pet would be staying, sleeping, and spending time beforehand, since everything is handled through pictures and text messages. That may just be a personal preference because I tend to worry and have a hard time trusting others with my pup. Overall, it was a really good experience, and I hope she’s available for all future visits.”
“Lisa is our go-to sitter! My pup is always happy, safe, and perfectly worn out at the end of his stay! Will definitely call on Lisa again for future travel. Thank you!!”
“Renata was such a great host for my GSD. I read a lot of glowing reviews here and a friend, who has also left his dogs with Renata, personally recommended her so I felt like my girl was in good hands. She updated me with pictures to show how happy my pup was. Would definitely book again.”
“Maryam , was absolutely great. She did a great job caring for my dog Bentley. She was very friendly, great communication, very sweet girl. I trusted her with my pet, She was very detailed about asking questions and to make sure my dog was cared for good and got plenty and enough exercise and playtime I was very grateful. I recommend her and I would definitely book with her again.”
“Leda had a wonderful stay with Tanya! She had plenty of space to run around outside, lots of toys to play with, a comfy bed and couch to rest/sleep and other dogs for company. Tanya was kind enough to provide updates and pictures throughout Leda’s stay. We would definitely recommend others and plan to board with Tanya again in the future!”
“Our dog George is very timid but gets along with all animals big and small. Max and Diana took great care of him. I received photo and video updates throughout the day. I could tell Feorge was doing g well and was comfortable at their place. We would definitely have George stay with them again!!”
“My yuki came back so happy and full of energy. They sent me constant updates and photos during her stay. Seemed like she really enjoyed her time there”
“We couldn't be more happy with Julieth and her family. They took care of Eros beyond professional. They were like family to Eros. He definitely had the time of jis life with them. Looots of active exercise, lots of walks, lots of love and lots of pictures and videos and updates. Eros is a big dog and not everyone can handle that, but they loved Eros. And Eros loves them too! Julieth is the right choice for your dog, don't even think about it!”
“It was our family’s first time using Rover and we’re so glad our dog stayed with Caira! Because we have a senior dog, we were worried at first due to our dog’s age but it was such a smooth stay with Caira. Caira was super kind to us and our dog from the moment we met her. She gave us a tour of her apartment and asked thorough questions about our dog’s habits + daily schedule. During our dog’s stay, she provided photo updates every day and we appreciated seeing our dog doing well. We would definitely have our dog stay with Caira again!”
“I am a return customer of Dane and continue to appreciate Dane’s family for their wonderful caretaking of my dogs. His in-laws are super sweet and caring. My fur babies were in really good hands.”
About: Reliable and caring pet sitter with experience feeding, walking, playing, and providing loving attention to your fur baby while ensuring their safety, comfort and happiness. Available Friday through Sunday with flexible availability during the rest of the week. Happy to accommodate different schedules whenever possible to meet your pet care needs. I live in a quiet, spacious apartment with a dog park and lots of room for walks around the property. I lost my own dog about a year ago, so pet sitting has been such a sweet way for me to still get all the puppy love.
“I had an amazing experience boarding my dog with Elise! From the very beginning, she showed genuine care and professionalism — she asked all the right questions about my dog’s allergies and preferences, and even had treats ready to help him feel comfortable right away. I could tell she truly loves animals and treats them like her own. When I picked my dog up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for - I could tell he had been recently brushed! I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Elise to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet caregiver!”
“Nicole is awesome! She not only treated and cared for my pup, Browny, so well while I was abroad, but she was also great with communication. She regularly sent me pictures and videos, so I always knew how he was doing and could rest assured that he was happy and well taken care of. I’ve hired different pet sitters over the years, and some can be unreasonably pricey, but Nicole is very reasonable, accommodating, and genuinely caring. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their fur baby. Until next time, Nicole! Browny already misses you! 🐶❤️”
“Excellent experience! Jana took great care of my dogs and handled pickup and drop-off perfectly. I’m very happy with the service and would definitely recommend her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Northridge
Absolutely blown away by Jess and Ed! I’ve used many pet sitters across the different cities I’ve lived in, and I can genuinely say these two are something special. They sent me some of the best pictures I’ve ever seen of my almost 9 year old German Shepherd, and seeing how happy, comfortable, and relaxed she was gave me so much peace of mind. I recently moved to LA and am still in the middle of transitioning, and they went above and beyond in so many ways. From taking the time to brush her to sharing amazing local recommendations for vets, daycares, groomers, and even allergy care, their thoughtfulness really stood out. They truly provided five-star service, and I feel so incredibly lucky to have found them! As a pet parent, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will 1000% be using them again. Thank you so much, Jess and Ed!!! Layla had the best time 🤍
Candy did an amazing job taking care of my two dogs during my 20 day Asia trip. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs dog sitting. She gave lots of pictures and updates during my trip and when I came to pick them up they looked very happy and healthy.
Nicol was wonderful! She was very communicative throughout the stay and incredibly flexible when we needed to extend our babies’ stay. She took great care of all them and was attentive to each of their individual needs. Our pups came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. We truly appreciate her kindness and flexibility and would absolutely recommend her to others. We’d happily book with her again! 🐾💕
Melissa is amazing! She took such great care of our dog while we were away and even welcomed him into her home. It was a little difficult at first because our dog has separation anxiety and cried all night, but Melissa was so patient and persevered until she was able to calm him down. She even helped potty-train him since he wasn’t fully potty-trained yet! We also forgot to bring his food, but Melissa was kind enough to provide food for him, too. We’re so grateful for her patience, kindness, and dedication. We definitely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their fur babies! ❤️🐶
Ori took great care of my dog, Arthur for 3 weeks. Sadly, the week prior to dropping Arthur off, I had to put my 15 yr old dog down, which was heartbreaking for both me and Arthur. I was really concerned that Arthur would feel abandoned and not adjust well. Ori was very understanding and kind, and really seemed to "look out" for Arthur's well being. She sent photos, and updates which was so reassuring. He enjoyed spending time with other dogs at her house and adjusted well to the routine. I would highly recommend Ori if you need to leave your dog. Arthur was in good hands.
Carter was such a lifesaver and accepted a last minute booking! He was extremely responsive and we were able to work out any difficulties quickly. He did an amazing job dealing with any issues she had and provided a comfy stay for the night. Carter also sent me plenty of videos of my pup having a blast! I would highly recommend him to any other dog owners.
Julianna was absolutely amazing! Leaving Willie in someone else's care isn't something we take lightly, but she made the entire experience so easy and reassuring. From the beginning, she was warm, thoughtful, communicative, and genuinely caring. What we appreciated most were the regular updates and photos she sent while we were away. Those little moments meant so much because we could see that Willie was happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. It's one thing to know your dog is being looked after, but it's another to feel like they're being treated as part of someone's family. Julianna went above and beyond, and we couldn't be more grateful. We would absolutely book with her again without hesitation. If you're looking for someone you can truly trust with your furry family member, Julianna is that person. Highly, highly recommend!

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.
94% of sitters in Northridge 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 Northridge 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 Northridge.
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 Northridge. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Northridge 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.
