About: Extensive experience in puppy and adult dog care including maintenance, administering medication, leash walking and play! Can’t wait to hang out with your pup too! I’m currently working part time, as a dog baorder and dog walker. I can fit you in anytime during my work day schedule and boarding on the weekend! I have a fenced yard with grass and a safe place to play, a spacious house for lounging and a safe neighborhood for walking and exercise.
About: Hello! I believe that animals are an important part of our lives. I’ve volunteered for animal shelters in the past, and keeping pets happy is very important to me. Cats, dogs, rodents, reptiles, etc. are many of the pets I’ve cared for over the years. With my dog being my best friend, I understand how much pets can mean to someone. I will make sure your pet gets all the care they deserve. I am currently job searching and in a semester break from college, so I have plenty of free time on my hands. Of course I will edit my information if that changes, but my schedule is very open and flexible at the moment. I have a fenced backyard with lots of room for zoomies. If you’re looking for care for a cat, there is a large litter box in my hallway as well. My dog is rather nervous, but not aggressive. I will make sure to have accommodations for your pet if needed!
“Vanessa did a fantastic job of watching my dog!!! She was super nice, and easy to work with. I needed a sitter with very short notice and she was prompt with communication and accommodated my needs so last minute. She also provided pictures and videos of my fur baby throughout the day, which ease my anxiety of having someone else look after my baby! 10/10 recommend and will definitely be a returning customer!”
About: Your trustworthy + reliable dog and pet sitter. Your pup will love running around or relaxing in the shade on our fully fenced 2.5 acres. I've always been the friend that gets asked if I can dog sit and being a good caretaker for people’s pets has been a huge passion of mine for the past decade. My animals are my family and I will treat yours the same. I've taken care of every type of critter from horses, donkeys, goats, chickens, cats, and of course dogs. I have 2 dogs myself that get along great with others. One of my dogs has a medical condition so I know from personal experience it can be scary having a stranger watch your dog. I have extensive experience with high-energy dogs, e-collars, whistle training, positive reinforcement training, and dealing with dogs with extensive medical needs. I never take on more than one client at a time so your dog has all the attention it needs and also isn't overwhelmed by a house full of other dogs. I work from home so I’m always around and never leave my own dogs home alone for more than 2-3 hours at a time. It’s always easy adding another dog to the pack. I have a fully fenced in yard and allow my own dogs to spend as much time outside as they want. I can crate your dog if requested, I do have crates here but you are welcome to bring your own. There is a dog bed in every room of the house and dogs are allowed on the furniture as well (unless you rather them not be) Both of my dogs are older so they loungers when we are at home but still have the energy to play and run. If you have a younger energetic dog they can make good playmates but if you have a senior who just wants to hang out they are good at matching that same energy.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Ridgecrest commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.
To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
