“Lynn provides a calm and loving environment for our 12 year old fox terrier Abbey. Each dog has their own soft-sided playpen when they want some alone time! We are so fortunate to have found Lynn - Abbey loves her!”
“Thank you to Tara. Our dog Murphy was well taken care of during his time at Tara’s house. He was treated like a member of her family. We would definitely use Tara’s services again if we need to leave Murphy behind when we go away on a trip.”

“Melissa was such a wonderful sitter for my pup! From the start, I felt at ease knowing she was in good hands. I loved receiving daily updates with photos and videos. It made me so happy to see her tail wagging, going on walks, and playing. It was clear she was not only well cared for but also genuinely enjoying her time. I would absolutely book with Melissa again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter who is both reliable and caring!”

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals since childhood and bring over 10 years of experience pet-sitting for friends and family. My home includes a gentle 10-year-old Alaskan Klee Kai and two senior cats—all of whom are completely dog-friendly, non-reactive, and well-accustomed to hosting guest dogs in our home. Since I work from home full-time, I am always there to ensure your pup gets personalized attention, continuous supervision, and a calm, low-stress environment. I host only one guest dog at a time so your pet receives my undivided care. My household is calm, clean, and family-friendly. My school-aged daughters have grown up with pets and know how to interact gently and respect a dog’s personal space. For added peace of mind, my senior cats also have their own dedicated upstairs sanctuary. Indoor Comfort: On hot or inclement days, we relax indoors where guest dogs are welcome to lounge on the living room sofa (bedrooms remain pet-free zones).
“Juneau had a blast with Lety and Mason. I appreciated the frequent photos and videos updating me on all of Juneau’s adventures throughout the weekend. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Juneau again!”
About: Hi there! I’m a stay-at-home mom, lifelong animal lover, and proud pet mom to 2 dogs of my own. 🐶🐶 I’ve been caring for pets for 20+ years, helping family and friends with their furry family members. I understand that pets are more than just animals—they’re family! My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away. I absolutely adore animals so our home is full of love, attention, and plenty of belly rubs! ❤️ We’re an animal-loving family and would be thrilled to welcome your pets into our lives. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, cuddles, companionship, or simply a cozy place to relax, I’m happy to provide personalized care based on their routine and personality. I’m also comfortable giving your pet the patience and space they need if they’re shy or take a little time to warm up. Why choose me? 🐾 20+ years of pet-care experience 🐾 Proud owner of 2 dogs 🐾 Stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule 🐾 Loving, attentive, and dependable 🐾 Your pet gets lots of attention and companionship 🐾 A family that genuinely loves animals I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your fur babies with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! 🐾❤️ Being a stay-at-home mom gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I am home throughout the majority of the day, which means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time. Our family loves having animals around, and pet sitting fits naturally into our daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and lots of love while keeping your pet comfortable and on their normal routine. 🐾 A Safe, Loving Home Away From Home My home is set up to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and part of the family. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air, play, and supervised outdoor time. We also have a dog door that allows dogs who are comfortable using one to go outside when they need a potty break or some time in the yard. I’m happy to keep your pet’s normal routine as much as possible, including regular meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and needs so they receive personalized care while you’re away.

During a visit, I can provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, playtime, walks, litter box care, and lots of attention and affection.

Cheyenne is awesome as always! I could tell my Luna had such a great time with her. They went on many walks and adventures and I got many updates throughout the day, with awesome photos. I never worried at all while I was gone during the work trip. TY! We look forward to the next time Luna stays with you!
As always, Luna had such a great time! Thank you for taking such good care of her through the holidays 💖 I always appreciate the constant updates and seeing her many adventures.

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 Oswald 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 Oswald.
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.
You and your Oswald 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.
