“Katherine is absolutely amazing. Our 16 year old anxiety ridden Morkie spent 3 days and nights with her and every thing was great. Katherine only takes one pet at a time and really gave Delilah special attention including having her snuggle up with her at night and take her for nice long walks.”
“Thiago was absolutely fantastic! My fiancée and I booked him to watch our two dogs, Danny and Bentley, while we were out of town, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the beginning, Thiago was friendly, accommodating, and extremely responsive. He made us feel comfortable leaving both dogs in his care, especially Danny, who is 12 years old. Throughout the stay, he consistently sent photos, videos, and updates showing the dogs enjoying themselves, going on walks, and getting plenty of attention. It was reassuring to see how happy and comfortable they were. He was also very flexible and communicative when coordinating drop off and pickup, which we really appreciated with our travel schedule. It’s clear that Thiago genuinely cares about the animals he looks after. We felt completely at ease knowing Danny and Bentley were in good hands. We would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring sitter. Thanks again, Thiago!”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Julie and her family! My cat Dusya and dog Yeti stayed with them for three nights, and everything was absolutely perfect. From the moment we met, Julie was warm, professional, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated with photos and messages, and it was clear that both of my pets were happy, comfortable, and loved. Dusya looked relaxed and content (which says a lot for a cat in a new place!), and Yeti had the best time playing and getting plenty of attention. When I picked them up, they were calm, well cared for, and clearly had a great mini-vacation of their own. I’m beyond grateful to Julie and her family for treating my pets like part of theirs. Highly recommend - I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Nadine and her husband provided excellent care for our little boy! We were put at ease and had great communication with Nadine with nice picture and video updates during his stay! Will definitely look to her for dog sitting services for future travel!”
“Kimberlin was great with our 2 dogs! They stayed with her and her husband for a week getting lots of attention and love. She communicated well, responded promptly to the initial request and all subsequent messages. She’s kind and clearly has a love of dogs that shows through her interactions. She is very understanding and accommodating. Our dogs were perfectly happy when we picked them up after a long week and I’m sure wouldn’t have protested to staying longer. Will definitely be using her again whenever we need help with our pups!”
“Great sitter. We were a bit nervous at first cuz our dog has some bad tendencies but she was great at controlling his leash aggression and kept us updated the whole time. Really great experience overall!”
“Luis was very accommodating when I requested to meet at the park before my booking and when I needed to drop my dog off a little bit later. He was very easy to talk to, asked a lot of questions about my dog, her habits and what activities she enjoyed (running, hiking, etc) and how much activity she needed. He was very clear on what he needed me to bring for her, which I 100% appreciated! He was very good at providing me with daily updates (including pics and videos). His dog was very friendly and my dog had a lot of fun having a friend to play with. Definitely would book him again.”
“Mariaelena was great with our two dogs. They are both elderly and one unexpectedly became a bit grouchy about his kennel and was sure to keep up reassured that everyone was doing fine despite the unexpected. Would totally trust her with our doggies anytime.”
“Peter has a big yard that my puppy could run around in and burn up energy. That was very helpful after driving for 13 hours over 2 days. Both dogs seemed happy when I came to pick them up. Plus, Peter was friendly and outgoing. He responded quickly - like less than a minute every time I reached out to him. He also takes great pictures of the dogs. I'd definitely use Peter again”
“Gayane was an amazing sitter for Tookie. She was very communicative and loved that she read his care instructions and asked plenty of questions prior to drop off. We got lots of photos and videos while Tookie was eating, relaxing, and out on walks. We really appreciate Gayane for her care over the weekend. Would highly recommend!”
“It was a roller-coaster at first, previous bookie canceled at the last moment so we had to scramble to find another sitter, flight was leaving in 2hrs. She accepted we have never been separated longer than a work day. Anna was/IS great!! She took great care of Aries sent plenty of pix and had us at ease!! Definitely will be booking her again”
“Emma was very responsive and took great care of our Sofie. She provided updates and I can tell that Sofie enjoyed her time with Emma. I would recommend and would definitely have her watch Sofie again!”
“Greg was great. He was communicative before and after. He made sure Max was comfortable. He really cared and sent lots of pictures. I think Max had a great time! Greg has a fantastic place for pups. It’s very dog friendly and they have room to roam outside. I am definitely booking him again!”
“Kolten and Julia were responsive and took excellent care of Dexter. This was our first time using Rover and they made sure it was an excellent one. The sent many pictures of Dexter during his stay. They made the experience very simple which helped us from worrying.”
“Tenny had a great time staying the weekend with Ali and the other dog guests. I really appreciated her mindfulness towards keeping him safe while he played with larger and more rambunctious dogs. I will definitely use her services again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Rocktram
Fernanda was amazing -extremely communicative. Great follow up and quick responses. Connor seem to have a great time with her and she went really out of her way to help me out because I asked her to bring the dog to an event for a few hours and she did that for me. Super grateful.
Kathrine is amazing. This is my first time using rover and Kathrine went above and beyond for us. She’s lovely, kind, and her home is beautiful. She sent so many photos and updates and Somi(my dog) looked happy and enjoyed herself! I would 100% use Kathrine again and recommend her to anyone! I wish she lived near me so she could be my day to day dog sitter!
Channing took great care of our pets during their stay. Our dog Yeti is still a young puppy and can get anxious in new environments, especially with unfamiliar places and car rides. She gave him extra attention and handled him very well. When we picked him up, it was clear he had already started to settle in and feel comfortable. He looked happy, relaxed, and in great shape. Our cat Dusya is older and needs a bit more attentive care. Channing clearly paid close attention to her as well. Dusya looked calm, well cared for, and content when we came to get her. It is always reassuring when you can see that both animals were comfortable and treated with care. We were very happy with the experience and would absolutely recommend Channing to others. Five stars!

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 Rocktram 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 Rocktram.
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 Rocktram 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.
