“So lucky to have found Cristal for our weekend getaway. Very easy to book with, great communication and she provided regular updates during our doggie’s stay. Would definitely book again.”
“Excellent experience! Buffy loved Deana and came home happy and relaxed. I really appreciated the updates and the photos throughout the boarding and it's clear that Deana genuinely loved and cares for the dogs. High recommend and will definitely book again!”
“We appreciate Sujit for always taking great care of Zooco while we were away. He is very patient and understanding with us and with our fur baby. We will definitely go back to him in the future as long as he still wants us. Thank you so much, Sujit!”
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life! I grew up caring for many animals…cats, dogs, fish, quail, chickens and a rabbit. I currently have 3 dogs and a tortoise. I can’t imagine life without the love of animals! I have a lot of experience with puppies and senior dogs with medical needs. Since I work from home, I am available during most work hours. I am also a full time mom, so I’m typically unavailable during school drop-off and pick-up times, but otherwise flexible availability. I would love to spend time with your pet in whatever capacity you need. I can walk, play fetch, take to the park, or just sit and cuddle. I can feed, bathe, and distribute medication. I am able to just stop in, or stay in your home for a number of hours, but am not able to stay overnight.
“This family took such great care of our babies. We had daily communication and pictures and videos. Lilo and Stitch looked so happy and energetic! They loved playing with Loki. Dipankar and Nagma took extra care in grooming Lilo and training her on walks. Also taking care of Stitch’s ear infection by applying his drops. We appreciate them so much. We will for sure hire them again in the future, as they are like another family for our babies. Thank you Dipankar and Nagma for all your care, patience and love for Lilo and Stitch.”
“Tracey took amazing care of my pup! Tracey is extremely friendly and responsive and well experienced in dog care. Kirby was full of energy and happiness when I picked him up, which shows he had an amazing time at Tracey’s. I highly recommend booking with Tracey if you need boarding for your pup!”
“Chona was a fantastic sitter for our Frenchie, Coco. She communicated often with texts and photos, took Coco on walks and outings, and made sure she was comfortable and calm the whole stay. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and would definitely book with Chona again.”
“We felt very comfortable with leaving our dog, Luna, with Lauren and Mike for the week. We knew she would be well taken care of. Luna is a lab puppy and has lots of energy, so it is great that she has Roxy to play with.”
“This was the first time using the Rover app , was very hesitant at first. However, Heather and her family took good care of our dog Chevy. She constantly gave me updates. She sent us pictures and videos through out the day of how he was doing. He was amazingly comfortable with them. I highly recommend her and I definitely will be going back to her if I ever need a doggy sitter again❤️… Chevys new TITI✨”
About: What sets me apart is my calm, adaptable approach and experience with both puppy training basics and senior pet care. I'm reliable, attentive, and make sure every pet feels safe and understood. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time and am off during the summers and holidays, which allows me to spend a lot of quality time at home. I am typically out of the house for only 3–4 hours at a time, so pets are not left alone for long periods. I truly love animals and am actively involved with a nonprofit rescue organization, so caring for pets is something I am very passionate about. Their well-being, enrichment, and daily needs would always be a priority in my home. If your dog is not used to being around cats, I do have an in law unit (where my mother in law lives) that I can put the cats in during your dogs stay. This is also the case if I happen to be fostering a cat during the time of your dogs stay. I provide attentive, structured care tailored to each pet’s needs. In my home, we have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, as well as a walking trail close to our house for regular walks and enrichment. Pets receive supervised outdoor time, exercise, play, and plenty of affection throughout the day. Because I am only out of the house for short periods (3–4 hours at most), pets are not left alone for long stretches. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medication (if needed), crate routines, and preferred sleeping arrangements. I provide mental stimulation through toys, basic training reinforcement, and interactive play. I try to maintain their established routines to reduce stress and ensure consistency. Clean water, a tidy feeding area, and lots of love and attention are always part of my standard care.
About: I've been Twixie's dog dad for six years, she's an SPCA rescue, so I know firsthand what it takes to help a dog feel safe, loved, and settled into a new routine from day one. I've trained her myself from scratch, and she now knows sit, stay, stop, down, roll over, high five, and even "boop," so I'm comfortable working through training and behavior, not just basic care. I also took care of family dogs growing up in young adulthood, so I'm used to adjusting to another dog's habits and quirks, not just my own. Beyond hands-on care, I compile videos of my dog, so paying close attention to dogs all day isn't a chore for me, it's already how I spend my time. Pet care is a genuine priority for me right now, not something squeezed around a job. I'm reliably available from 10am to 3pm, which is plenty of time for walks, play, and attentive care without rushing anything. That's a consistent window you can actually count on, not just "whenever I have time." Your dog would be cared for at my house, which has a fully fenced backyard — plenty of safe space to run and play — plus a park right across the street for longer walks. My own dog Twixie, a friendly SPCA rescue, is there too, so your pup won't be alone, she's used to sharing space with other dogs. I'm also able to crate your dog if that's part of their routine or if you'd prefer it. I pay attention to each dog's own routine, feeding, and boundaries rather than treating every dog the same way.
“Sant was very attentive and caring with my dog. He made sure my dog’s needs were met, especially his medications. He had good communication with me while my dog was boarded.”
“Tiffany was amazing! If you have an anxious/nervous dog, I definitely recommend Tiffany, she was amazing with my dog. Thank you so much for everything I definitely will be rebooking again!”
“Thank you, Kim & Chris, for taking such great care of our little Mazzie. I have terrible anxiety leaving our rescue pup. But with your loving care, all of my anxiety went away knowing that Mazzie would be well cared for. We look forward to booking with you again.”
“Kristine is a great sitter! I can see my Mickey 🐶 feels happy and comfortable with her, that is very important to me, I love that she always keep me updated and I appreciate that she sent me pictures and videos every day, she’s very professional…”
About: I am a high school English and Theatre teacher. We love our pets and treat them like family! I have had dogs and cats my whole life and make sure they get a lot of attention. I have a knack for understanding dogs’ body language and individual needs. Our family dog is a Frenchi named Louis. We have taken care of all sizes of dogs with various energy levels as well as had cats over the years. I love nature walks with dogs and like to make sure they are living their best lives. Cats get snuggles and playtime too! Pets are family! I can do early morning or evening walks on weekdays and anytime on weekends. During Summer break, I am pretty open daily except for a couple trips. I have a fenced yard with a pool and lots of toys.we live about a 15 minute walk from the dog park and attend often with Louis.

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 Orwood 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 Orwood 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 Orwood.
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 Orwood. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs

You and your Orwood 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.
