“Heather and Calob were amazing! They watch our puppy for a long weekend and did a great job of keeping her occupied (which is hard for a puppy!). We would highly recommended them for any travel you’re doing, great folks!”
“Pixie came home happy and healthy! Lauren and Ben took wonderful care of her for six days. They sent us regular photos and updates, which really put our minds at ease while we were away. When our flight got canceled, they were incredibly accommodating. They helped us extend the booking and happily let Pixie stay with them for an extra day, which we truly appreciated. We're so grateful for their kindness and excellent care. We'll definitely book with them again in the future!”
“Mackenzie and her family were AMAZING. They took such good care of our pups. Both Lylla and Rocket have separation anxiety issues, and we knew they had been well-loved because they were so calm when we picked them up. We also loved the "Welcome Puppies" chalk drawing that Mackenzie's daughter drew for us. We would absolutely ask them to watch our dogs again!!”
“We are happy with our experience. John sent pictures, and seemed happy to watch our dogs. Our fur children were also happy when we arrived for pickup. Our pups also don’t usually eat away from home so we were surprised that they ate with John. We will definitely rebook. Thank-you”
“Greg was great. He was communicative before and after. He made sure Max was comfortable. He really cared and sent lots of pictures. I think Max had a great time! Greg has a fantastic place for pups. It’s very dog friendly and they have room to roam outside. I am definitely booking him again!”
“Ciana was absolutely wonderful and took great care of my baby. She also regularly sent me photos and updates so I knew that he was in great hands. I’ll definitely go back to her and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Susan stepped in when another sitter cancelled my stay. She was very accommodating, attentive and caring with my Cavalier King Charles. Great backyard for running around! Wonderful one on one care, thanks Susan.”
“Laura was friendly, profressional, and made us feel at such ease leaving our baby Digit with her. We were out of thr country and requested emails and she was more than happy to oblige. Laura provided frequent updates and our pup looked happy and healthy in every picture sent. Laura dogs were passive and easy for our dog to get along with. Overall I would definitely recommend Laura”
“Jamie was very timely in responding to me and sent me photos and updates. My dog Ollie felt right at home immediately and marched right in. Jamie and Joseph were obviously very familiar with caring for dogs, including noticing the little things, like wiping dogs eyes at the corners which I do. The house was clean and the neighborhood is quiet. I feel absolutely comfortable with having Ollie boarded with them and will be using their services again.”
About: I grew up in a house full of animals and pets and have grown to understand and love them fully and I hope to spread that love towards other animals! I can come take care of pets almost every day! I am a working Christian girl so Sundays I have church for an hour, and I just recently started a new job so far my hours are 10am-7pm Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays! I’m available afternoons on Thursdays and I’m available weekends! I believe that pets require an immense amount of attention and affection and I will always create a trusting bond with the pet owners and answer any questions the owners may have!
“Lexi and her family treated our dog as their own, and they truly understand what it means to care for a dog. There was never a worry that Moose wouldn’t get adequate stimulation with the many walks and backyard time spent with this family. The most noticeable difference between Lexi and other sitters was Moose’s energy when we picked him up. He wasn’t full of anxious energy and he seemed like our normal pup. This gives us the peace of mind and then some for any future stays he has with this household.”
“Katherine is absolutely amazing. Our 16 year old anxiety ridden Morkie spent 3 days and nights with her and every thing was great. Katherine only takes one pet at a time and really gave Delilah special attention including having her snuggle up with her at night and take her for nice long walks.”
“Mariaelena was great with our two dogs. They are both elderly and one unexpectedly became a bit grouchy about his kennel and was sure to keep up reassured that everyone was doing fine despite the unexpected. Would totally trust her with our doggies anytime.”
“Super caring and accommodating. Tiffany sent notes and pictures during Ramble’s stay and allowed me to grab Ramble for a few hours so that I could treat him for a walk and dinner date.”
“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Brandi is the best! Excellent care, safe yard/home, great family environment, and other dogs to play with, and she’s friendly and professional. So grateful to have her to watch my Tonka!”
“Kimberlin was great with our 2 dogs! They stayed with her and her husband for a week getting lots of attention and love. She communicated well, responded promptly to the initial request and all subsequent messages. She’s kind and clearly has a love of dogs that shows through her interactions. She is very understanding and accommodating. Our dogs were perfectly happy when we picked them up after a long week and I’m sure wouldn’t have protested to staying longer. Will definitely be using her again whenever we need help with our pups!”
About: I’ve always enjoyed being around dogs and understand how important it is to have someone reliable caring for your pet while you’re away. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and comfortable following feeding, walking, playtime, and daily care instructions. I’ll treat your dog with care and respect, keep you updated, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while they’re with me. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and companionship, and I can follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. I live in a comfortable apartment with a good-sized patio and access to a dog park inside my apartment community for walks, exercise, and playtime. I also have a very friendly and loving Golden Retriever who enjoys having other dogs around. I always supervise pets carefully, follow the owner’s instructions, and make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

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 Oakville 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 Oakville.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Oakville 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.
