Randi’s communication was great throughout the whole process and she treated my boy like he was one of her own. She even sent pics and updates during my trip to let me know how he was doing.

“Truly the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! Cookie (our corgi) stayed with Katherine for two days and one night during a heat wave, and somehow he still came home relaxed, happy, and totally himself. She made sure he got the exercise he needs—even in the heat—and it really showed. Katherine’s home is beautiful—so warm, clean, and inviting—and her garden is just as lovely. It’s clear she puts care into everything she does, and that includes how she takes care of the dogs she watches. When I picked Cookie up, he was calm and content, like he’d had his own little vacation. It’s not easy to wear out a corgi, but Katherine managed it with total thoughtfulness. It’s such a relief to know Cookie was in good hands, and it honestly made my time away so much easier. We’ll absolutely be reaching out to her again. So grateful!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years and have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pets. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, check-ins, routines, and giving lots of attention and affection. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family and always make sure owners feel comfortable and updated while they’re away. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they need. I’m available for drop-in visits throughout the week and can work around your pet’s normal feeding, playtime, walking, and daily routine. I always follow your pet’s normal routine and respect their personality, comfort level, and boundaries. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, playtime, walks if needed, and a clean, safe environment. I’ll also keep you updated so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’m genuine and super responsible. I understand that your puppies are like human babies. They’re part of the family. I will take really good care of them. I have two puppies and they run my world. I’m also super honest and trustworthy. I’m such a dog mom so I will send you pictures and videos while you're away! I love all dogs! I can’t wait to meet you! This is their house I am just living in it but i currently do not have boarding at my house as an option right now. I always make time because I believe they deserve it. I’m really reliable and dependable. I know how to manage my time properly. There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for my/your pet/s. Your pet is my main priority as if they were my own. I make sure they eat at a timely manner, get their walks/bathroom break, get lots of playtime if they need it, lots of treats, love and attention.

About: I've spent years caring for and training three dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. That experience has taught me how to adapt to each dog's unique needs, whether they thrive on play and adventure or prefer a calm, predictable environment. I'm comfortable administering medications, following detailed care instructions, and adhering to allergy or dietary protocols. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and any changes that may need extra care, so you can feel confident your dog is safe, happy, and well looked after. My goal is to provide a loving, structured environment where every dog feels comfortable, understood, and treated like family. I work part-time from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving dogs alone for long periods. We spend time relaxing and playing in our fenced backyard, enjoy two daily walks, and, with the owner's permission, can visit the wonderful local Wardlaw Dog Park for safe, supervised socialization and exercise. I tailor each dog's day to their personality, energy level, and routine- whether they love active play, exploring outdoors, or simply staying close by for companionship and cuddles. My house has a fully fenced backyard with two separate outdoor areas, allowing dogs to have their own space if they prefer a quieter environment. There's also a private outdoor room where they can relax while still enjoying fresh air. Inside, the first floor is thoughtfully set up with dogs in mind. It includes a dedicated dog area with a cozy dog chair, comfortable beds, a crate (if your dog is crate-trained or prefers one), and plenty of toys to keep them engaged. I maintain a clean environment with a robot vacuum that vacuums and mops the floors twice a day.

Piper was friendly, and Faith was very friendly with her. On arrival I was met by Piper; she introduced herself and gave me a brief history of her experience with animals. During Faith's stay with her, she sent me pictures of her, and Faith tends to be in good spirits walking and playing on the piper bed. on May 22, 2026, I picked faith up on time. Piper said Faith was a good girl, no problems.

Arlene was really eager and excited about keeping Kobi! Even after I advised he had some mobility issues and could not run around she was ok with keeping a close eye on him. He immediately felt comfortable in her home . She updated me regularly and I knew he was in good care . Will be booking again for sure .

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 Russell 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 Russell.

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 Russell 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.
