“I’m so glad the host of the vacation rental were staying at recommended Rover. We had plans to go out for part of the day and I wasn’t comfortable leaving my 1 and 11 year old dogs unsupervised in a rental home where they’re not totally familiar - and I wanted to be sure the house was kept in order while we were gone. Though it took me some time to understand the workings of the rover app, I did ultimately connect with a lovely and very conscientious dog sitter, Katie R. She provided helpful communication ahead of the visit, was right on time and very friendly. Katie kept us apprised of how our pets were doing, even sent some pictures, so we could also see how well they took to her. Our only regret is that we live too far away to use Katie for our dog sitting needs on a regular basis!”
“Taylor did an amazing job watching Blue! She sent consistent updates and pictures, video and we felt at ease while being out of town and leaving Blue in her hands. She went above and beyond, playing fetch with Blue and changing his food when ants got to the bowl. Book Taylor, she was exceptional!”
“Sahula did a great job taking care of our furbabies. She kept me posted on everything that was going on every day and time she came by to check on them. I will definitely book again with her when needed! We really appreciate her.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was born. I’ve been raised with them and i’ve always seen how they can positively affect the mental state of those around. Therefore, i’d love to get any chance I get, to take care and love other animals just as much as I love my own! I am available majority of the days in the evening past 3:30. Weekends and Friday for the most part are basically fully opened. I just work my schedule around school and sports. At the moment I take care of my 2 dogs and cat inside of a town house. Therefore I do not have access to a yard so I walk them all together. I walk them every 2-3 hours and feed them in the morning and night with a mid day snack. For stimulation for the pets i’ve taught them how to use speaking buttons and I give them treat puzzles when giving their midday snack.
“This was our first time using the app and having Loren take care of our dog was an exceptional experience. Loren was accommodating, friendly, communicative, and she knew what she was doing. Our dog has a big personality that didn't prove to be a challenge for Loren, I would definitely rebook again in the future! Thank you!”
About: I've always had friends with dogs and have done house and dog sitting for many years without any issues. I also have a saint Bernard, Banks! I'm currently looking for a new job after I was laid off from my former job. I have a lot of time on my hands currently so I have open availability. I take my doggo out on walks every day! We're also lazy from time to time but we're usually more active. I'm very engaged with my dog as he can be very energetic so I can definitely handle bigger dogs with a lot of energy.

About: More than just a side hustle, it’s my passion. 🌸 -lifelong dog owner -experience as a wrangler, ranch hand, & foster. -worked in boarding facilities & daycares -shadowed & worked alongside professional trainers -volunteered at shelters, rescues & ranches. -Experience with all sizes, ages & personalities, from puppies to seniors, including pets with special needs etc. My Home☺️ - home 24/7, so our days have room for companionship, play, rest & more! - My mother currently stays w me, offering an extra set of caring hands. *You’re welcome to meet her, too!* :) - A single-story home with a secure yard for supervised play & grass patches on the deck for potty breaks. ⭐️My animals always come first. They eat before I do. Their happiness, safety & comfort are the first things on my mind, & when your baby is in my care, they become part of that same love <3 & I truly understand they’re not “just pets” - They are family. They know your footsteps. They find you when you’re sad. They understand silently, better than most. I understand why leaving them with someone takes so much trust & faith. That’s why I care about the little things. Whether they’ve eaten, whether they’re comfortable, whether they need to burn off some energy or just have someone sit beside them. Working with animals has taught me how to listen to the things they can’t say out loud. I would be honored to earn your trust. I want them to have someone who notices, who understands & somewhere they can rest easy ☺️ -I work from home, and have a very flexible schedule to attend to your dog's needs. -My mother stays with me, 4 eyes - instead of 2:) - My home is completely fenced in - safe for your dog to roam and run around supervised. -Back Door Screen is always open so they can go in and out when they please. -Can easily crate or separate the dogs if needed. - Neighborhood is safe and dog-friendly -Ac/heat on 24/7 for your babies ensured comfortability. I have a fully fenced yard, and two very friendly dogs. If needed, my pups definitely can be separated in a different section of the house, or crated. I have always put full dedication to keeping an eye on your pups constantly:) In my client's home, I follow every rule and expectation they imply. I take extra precautions being in the client's home, as I don’t want anything to happen to any of their stuff, or their furbaby.
“Always reliable and caring that it makes being away or having someone care for my pets a stress free experience. Seriously, Jazmin is the most reliable and responsible and caring sitter you’ll ever find!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other pets ever since I was 12. I’ve also had experience with puppies and elderly dogs. Family and friends always rely on me to take care of their dogs while on vacation and I’d say I do a pretty good job! I am currently home for college and would love to pet sit for anyone in need of a sitter. Anytime works for me. I’d be happy to help! I usually like to give dogs a walk if they’re up for it. I give them food and make sure they’re well fed. I also give them baths on occasion!
About: Ever since I can remember, I loved animals. I have always had animals in my home since I was young and taking care of them comes naturally. I helped a few of my dogs with their litters. I also helped my aunt with her blind dog like I said I love animals and I’m here to help with whatever you need. I am currently working from home so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I am available seven days a week to help you with your needs. I have a fenced yard so plenty of room for your dogs to play. I have two small dogs. One was a rescue. My dogs are inside dogs and are crated at night for bedtime.
About: I've had dogs of my own, and helped take care of my neighbors whenever I can. I have also rescued and re-homed 🐶 Being a past pet parent has taught me patience and the loving bond of unconditional love a dog generously provides. I currently work full time but have time to drop by feed, walk and provide care for your fur babies. My schedule is flexible, and I am available anytime weekends. In the past when I have cared for my own dogs, I make sure safety is paramount and fresh water/food is always provided. Leash as needed.

Also have my kids helping me with dogcare. I have a big fenced yard and my dogs love meeting new furfriends. I can easily separate my dogs and put my dogs in their crates if needed to ensure all dogs are safe and comfortable.
About: My family had puppy dog named Hazel who we had for about 3 years. I used to play fetch with her in the backyard when I’d come home from school when I was around 10. I’d help with baths, walking her, my mom taught me how bring her inside when I was home alone doing homework, she behaved great and protected me well. A few years later, she passed from choking while eating something that I think had a bone in it and that was the first experience of heartbreak/loss. A few years after that, I adopted my current pet cat on my birthday, Ace, who I love so much. I’ve always loved animals and give pets to dogs whenever I have permission to, my best friend has many dogs so when I go over her house, I get all the cuddles and get drooled on, which I’m used to at this point. I love watching dog training videos and educating myself as I get older so when I finally get a dog again, as an adult, I want to be prepared and educated on how to protect their health, feed them properly and keep them safe with proper nutrition, exercise and training. I would personally love to get myself a Doberman or German Shepherd (Like Hazel was). I often go to my aunts house who has multiple chunky french bulldogs and help her in anyway I can, I enjoy how sweet dogs are and would love to help do any training techniques you’d love your little doggo to be working on while you are away. I am also in the process of my goal of losing 100lbs! So this helps me get the exercise I need while doing something I’m passionate about! Weekday and Weekends for now, preferably during the Morning & Afternoons on Weekdays and anytime as long as there is a day notice beforehand so I can clear my schedule just for your pet. Not currently doing pet sitting or boarding at my own home, maybe I will be more likely to in the future but I’m not sure yet.
About: Hi! I’m Analise, a college student finishing up my last semester, which means I have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve! I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups. I especially love working with high energy dogs, anxious dogs, and pets who need medication or extra care. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable adjusting my care to each pet’s individual needs and personality. As a full-time student with college classes three days a week and a part-time job, I’ve learned how to manage my time effectively. I carefully plan my schedule to make sure I can fit pet care in between my other responsibilities. On my days off from college or work, I’m fully available for longer visits, walks, or extended care. On busier days, I still have time between classes or shifts for quick check-ins, feeding, or short walks. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, so I always make sure it fits smoothly into my weekly routine I’m very careful and always pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs. Whether I’m in my home or the client’s, I make sure the pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I follow any specific instructions and routines closely, making sure the animal gets the right food, exercise, and attention. I’m also loving and playful, so pets not only feel looked after, they have fun too! I treat every dog like they’re my own.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Running Springs is $27 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $39 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
