“My dog Duke had a great time with JJ and Family. JJ sent me plenty of pictures throughout the day to let me know how Duke was doing. She made sure Duke had toys to play with. Duke had a fun day full of playtime with the family dog. Duke can be very high energy, but JJ and her family did a really great job at taking care of him for me.”
“We had such a great experience with Ilona! She took wonderful care of Sophie and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication was easy, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. It was clear that Sophie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Ilona and would happily have her watch Sophie again!”
“Nune looked after our two chihuahuas for four nights. We loved the photos she sent of our babies while we were on vacation. We’ll definitely call her again for our next trip.”
“It will be hard to leave our pup with anyone else! They were the perfect family to take care of our Drew! Always sent updates, videos, and pictures. We felt really safe with Drew in their care!”
About: I've been working with and caring for my clients pets since 2020. I've had dogs and cats all my life growing up. My clients testimonies speak for themselves. I'm a full time animal care service provider. My schedule works around my clients and their schedules, very flexible with changing dates if needed, i only ask you give me a heads up notice of 1 day or more. I believe God created animals to care for and to love. Pets are an amazing gift of life. I treat each of my clients pets as if they are my very own.
“Tiffany and her family were perfect for our high energy dog! They have two energetic dogs of their own and our dog, Winston, gets lots of play time with them and lots of balls to fetch from the family! Our dog also LOVES the pool and got to swim in their pool twice over a three night stay, and Tiffany was gracious to bathe him afterwards and even give him a life jacket so he could enjoy it with their kids. We love that Winston is having his own vacation while we’re away, and will continue to use Tiffany for our upcoming stays!”
“A very nice family who took great care of our two pups. They sent us lots of photos, and the dogs looked very happy in all of them. I think they were even a little sad to leave 😆 Will board with them again in the future!”
“We feel so lucky to have found Weihui! She and her husband were incredibly warm and welcoming to both us and our dog from the very beginning. Weihui asked thoughtful questions at drop-off, which immediately gave us confidence that our dog would be in great hands. Throughout the stay, she kept us updated with detailed messages, along with plenty of photos and videos that gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear how much genuine love, attention, and care she gave our dog, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’re truly grateful to their family for taking such wonderful care of our dog. We will absolutely be booking with Weihui again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!”
“Had our 5 month old golden doodle stay with Robert for an entire week while we were out on vacation and we feel great that our pup was very well taken cared of. Robert sent us daily videos and photos without even asking. He was also given walks and played with other dogs that Robert was caring for. Thank you again Robert for making sure our pup was well fed, happy and taken cared of while we were away! We won’t hesitate to send our pup there again! ?”
“Ryan and Abby took such good care of bleu for the two weeks I was on holiday. They were very responsive, sent lots of photos daily, and answered any questions that I had. they were also very knowledgeable and sensitive to dogs who might not get along with others, which I appreciated with my senior who can be temperamental. Will definitely book with Ryan and Abby the next time I’m on vacation!”
“Ocean had such a great stay while I was away! I got tons of videos, photos, and updates throughout my trip, and she looked so happy and comfortable the entire time. She ate well, slept well, and clearly had an absolute blast. She came home completely exhausted from all the fun, which is always a great sign! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well taken care of while I was gone. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Patricia was wonderful with Sherman! Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and she sent photos in a timely manner that really put me at ease while he was with her overnight. She went above and beyond by meeting me during her lunch break so I could pick Sherman up, which I really appreciated. Sherman was clearly well cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Patricia again. Highly recommend!”
“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“Hasmik was great. I had never left my baby with anyone. She took such good care of him that he didn't even miss his mom and dad. He is our first (human or otherwise) so we were very nervous. She sent lots of photos and put my mind at ease. She will be my go to sitter.😊”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pico
So thankful we found Tania! It was our first time leaving our 2 mini Dachshund’s with anyone besides family and came close to canceling our trip since putting them in a kennel was not an option for us. The second we met Tania and her daughter we knew immediately they would no doubt take care of our girls! Thank you Tania for taking such great care of Sassy & Ellie!
Another great stay for Nela!! So grateful for Sue & Shah!! Thanks for taking such good care of Nela!! It’s good knowing she’s in good hands while we are away. We enjoy receiving all of the daily pics/videos. We would definitely recommend them to anyone needing care for their pet. They’re awesome!! Nela enjoys her stays as well. She always comes home so energetic & happy 🥰🐕🦺🐾
JJ did an amazing job caring for our dogs, Lucy and Oswald while we were out of town. She was very communicative, responsive, and accommodating. She sent us daily updates with photos. Oswald stayed with JJ last year, and he remembered her and was happy to see her again.
Laura and Aaron are wonderful, lovely people. I was nervous as this is my first time using rover.com. They communicated efficiently, provided a schedule, and provided vids and pics throughout Pancakes stay along with updates about Pancakes demeanor, mood, and what they were willing to do to help Pancake enjoy his stay. We were able to have fun and enjoy our time knowing Pancake was being well taken care for. Highly recommend.
Danielle is fabulous! We left our labradoodle with Danielle for 4 days and Danielle followed up each day with photos and a short description of how the day went. Danielle understands what pet owners are worried about, what we're thinking of regarding our pets when we're not with them. Danielle's actions of sending photos and a daily summary eases/rids those concerns. Our pet was well taken care of by Danielle! Danielle was also very understanding and accommodating for our unique needs and situations. I would recommend Danielle to anyone who's looking for a loving and caring boarder for their pet-family-member.
Sydney took great care of our 1 year old dachshund during our weekend trip, so well that we are mildly suspicious he preferred her place to ours. She sent plenty of photos and videos, which kept us relaxed and updated. When we brought him home, he genuinely seemed a little bummed, like he was missing his weekend getaway. Thank you so much, Sydney! We’d be happy to have Bash stay with you again.
Caleb was very quick to answer and proactive, this was our first time using rover and I accidentally booked daycare instead of boarding , he was quick to accommodate to take our dog and acted quickly to call support to fix for us. This made things easier as we were on vacation and hands were tied. I recommend him for any pet owners!

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 Pico home-away-from-home, 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 Pico.
<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 Pico 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 , 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 .
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.
