“It was my first time using a sitter for my 13 year old dog and I was very anxious about it.. Amber did an amazing job of helping ease my anxieties so I could enjoy my trip through consistent check ins and updates on my dog. Amber was very polite and professional with her communications and a pleasure to work with.”
“Dominie took such great care of my Morty! For my dog having really bad anxiety, I received him back and had absolutely no worries at all. He seemed calm and I can tell he was really taken care of. I was updated consistently throughout the day with pictures, videos and updates on how he was adjusting. The communication was amazing! I will definitely be returning for future stays. Thank you Dominie for taking great care of Morty!”
“So happy to have a safe place for my older yorkie. She came home so much happier than with previous boarding experiences. I could tell from the pictures that she was being loved and cared for. Thanks Anna!”

“Haley provided peace of mind during vacation, as I’m usually the one who suffers from separation anxiety! She sent regular updates and amazing photos of my pupper, which really put me at ease because I could tell my baby was having a great time. Haley was very easy to work with and totally accommodating. Can’t ask for more than that!”
“Alondra watched my dog while I was out of town for a extended weekend. I was sent photos and videos of her everyday. I felt completely comfortable the whole time I was away; I knew that Abbie was well taken care of and safe. I would recommend having her sit your dog, I plan on using her again when I need a sitter.”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have always loved caring for them. I helped care for my childhood dog while he had cancer, which taught me patience, compassion, and how to provide extra care when a pet is sick. I’m also comfortable with the everyday responsibilities of pet care, including feeding, cleaning up after pets, exercise, and keeping their environment clean. I currently have three Golden Retrievers of my own, who I absolutely love and consider part of my family. I work full-time, but I’m available after 5 PM Monday through Friday and I’m off all weekend. I enjoy spending quality time with my dogs and making walks and playtime part of my weekly routine. I would love the opportunity to give other pets the same attention, care, and companionship I give my own. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I follow their normal routines, provide fresh food and water, and give them plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. I’m also respectful of my client’s home and always keep the space clean and secure. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own and pay close attention to their behavior and needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
96% of sitters in Rio Bravo 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 Rio Bravo 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 Rio Bravo.
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 Rio Bravo. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Rio Bravo 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.
