“Hugh and Mary provided excellent care, amazing communication and flexibility. They watched my dog while I skied and even provided pictures and updates throughout the day. My friends ended up booking with them too after seeing their reviews and were just as impressed. We are so grateful and will definitely be excited to have them sit for Cap next time we're in Big Bear!”
“Moriah provides outstanding doggy daycare! Her property is expansive, allowing dogs to be able to run and play in the safety of a well fenced yard. My fur babies got to play with several other dogs in a large yard in safety. She and her family supervise all the dog play both inside her home and out. We look forward to having Moriah provise doggy daycare again. Highly recommended!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for 14 years, and have experience in basic dog training. I also can wash, and cut nails. I am also experienced in administering medicine (such as pills and ear ointment) and im super affectionate :). Booking day care and sitting with me also includes 24/7 access to dog cameras, so any parents can check on their pup ♥️ I am home majority of the day, I am able to give your pet attention and quality play time and frequent breaks throughout the day. Every once and a while 1-2 friends will stop by briefly, but that’s for 2-3 hours max. I am good at updating my clients their condition of their pup. I also have a fenced yard, and ample time dedicated to your pet. Pet owners that book with me also get special access to doggie cameras to check on their pet’s welfare.
“Melanie and her family were very welcoming and kind to our two pups. Their dogs got along great with ours. The communication and updates throughout their stay were also very appreciated!”
“I just moved into the area and Patti was very accommodating with scheduling despite short notice. I can tell from the pictures that my dog was in good hands. Looking forward to booking more stays in the future!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I highly recommend Savannah! She took great care of my Yorkie and treated him like he was her own. She was reliable, caring, and made sure he was comfortable and happy while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. I would definitely use her services again!”
“Yunuen and Saul were great with communication which made me feel at ease seeing as this was the first time I used this app. They also sent tons of pics of Tillie during her stay. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Emily and her family are always reliable and a real joy for Boots. Boots always has the best time and comes home pleasantly tired. We trust them wholeheartedly with Boots’ wellbeing and happiness. We are repeat happy clients. :)”
“Hi. Another great day with Adam and Franny. Our baby Mack always has a great time with them. They love him like family. Give them a try you'll be so happy like us. We love them.!”
About: I’ve always been a lover of dogs and had dogs growing up in the family (two beagles). I care deeply about their wellbeing and that they are getting enough exercise and mental stimulation. I currently have a labradoodle Shepard and walk her at least once a day. I love to create new memories that are guaranteed to be fun and exciting for your fur baby :) I’m working part-time for a marketing agency where I have days off and a more flexible schedule. The jobs vary and I always know when I’m working ahead of time so that I can mark availability with ease. I have a fenced backyard with lots of space to run around and play. I live up in the mountain with lots of trees and beautiful, scenic areas for walks. I live on a 9,000 sq ft lot and have a labradoodle Shepard who loves to play with other dogs and can offer lots of playtime with your pet!
About: I've taken care of dogs most of my life with love, compassion and patience. I have First Aid Certification. I provide photos/videos and GPS tracking I am home full time which gives a flexible schedule and ample time to provide attentive, personalized care. I live near Yucaipa Regional and Community Parks I have a small fenced yard but also very close to Yucaipa parks. I have a kitten and 2 young dogs that love other animals.
“Megan was great! Her care for Kora started months before my actual vacation needs. She took the time to ease my anxiety by patiently answering all of my Rover-related questions. During our meet and greet, she let Kora take things at her own pace while getting to know her and her babies. I even started leaving Kora with her once a week so she could get comfortable, and Kora came back yesterday tired, happy, and well cared for. Thank you, Megan, for all your patience, kindness, and care for Kora!”
About: I’ve had cats & dogs all my life of all different breeds. I recently lost my beagle of 13 years & my schnauzer of 17 years, and I’m ready to be a special part of your pet’s life in whatever capacity needed. I’ve cared for both healthy pets as well as those needing medication, and I respect that each animal has a unique personality with specific needs. I am excited to meet and care for your precious 4 legged (or three!) family members. I’m very flexible and generally available for even same day check ins and walks. I’m available weekends, weekdays, morning to night based on what is needed for boarding or sitting. I currently have 2 indoor friendly cats. I totally understand if your dog is not used to cats, they have their own area/room where they stay so I’ll make sure they don’t have to interact. Outside I have a large fenced in yard. For walks and check-ins, I will take extra care in keeping your pet secure and safe at all times. I know what it’s like to leave a pet family member in the care of someone else when having to be away. I also know some animals are more needy than others and just want someone there for them during the day.
“Allen is very patient with my two needy and anxious dogs. I get lots of pictures and updates throughout the day which is very reassuring. Allen is one of the very few people I trust to take care of my pups.”
“I’m so glad we found Caesar and we would definitely use his services again. We took a trip to Big Bear with our kids and wanted to bring our 6 month old puppy along. Caesar watched him for us while we all skied. Drop off/pick up was easy. He’s located close to skiing and sledding. Caesar sent pics of our dog playing. It was positive all around.”

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 Running Springs 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, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 899 sitters in Running Springs, 89% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "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.
