“Ziggy stayed with Malissa for the first time, and it will definitely not be the last!! She made sure to send pics and videos and he was having a blast! We are so happy we found her, highly recommend her for your fur babies, they will have the best time like Ziggy did!”
“Adela and Errol were amazing. Our 8 month old pup was well taken care of and loved their family. They made us feel comfortable and always gave us updates of his stay. Highly recommend them to take care of your fur babies.”
“Chad was great. His whole family really spoiled our Joey. Was not sure my dog wanted to come home haha. Communication is key and Chad kept us updated throughout the weekend. Thanks for taking care of our dog Joey and would absolutely recommend him for your pet. Thanks Chad”
“Frank and Saleha made our first experience with Rover so easy and comfortable! I was nervous dropping my baby off with someone I don’t know but they made the entire experience so comforting by sending me picture and video updates of her playing fetch, eating and hanging out with the kids. We could tell they were giving our pup lots of attention and love. Will definitely be bringing our Boo Bear back to their family!”
“Angelica was absolutely wonderful with Oreo! She took such great care of her while we were away from Friday through Tuesday. She kept me updated every single day with lots of photos and little messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Oreo was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I also loved seeing her interact with Angelica’s cats, it looked like she had a great time! Angelica is such a kind, caring, and thoughtful person, and I truly appreciated all the love she gave Oreo. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”

“Rachelle has taken wonderful care of Lucy once again. It is a great feeling to leave her with someone we can trust and who we know will offer Lucy lots of attention and play time. Multiple pictures every day are also a very nice touch. Rachelle will remain our go-to sitter as long as she continues on Rover.”

About: Im home 24/7 so you need a sitter dog, walker im there 😭 all I do currently is take care of 4 dogs. Always make sure they get their walk so they stay fit, I never over feed, make sure they get their outside play time and nap time I am on it. I currently have plenty of spare time so im very free everyday to go on walks, play take care of a dog whenever needed. Currently do that right now with my own little weiner army all I do all week is take care of dogs. I have 4 small weenies who love to dig and play in the big back yard and i take them on walks every day or every other day depending on their energy. They do mostly love to sleep throughout the whole day and dig.
“Robert is a true dog lover. All dogs will get along with him and his pets. Frequent walks, and a trip to the park. Our dog always comes back very relaxed and you can tell that he had a good time. We used to take him to our vet to stay for a few days, but he always came back traumatized. Even for a day caged up in the pen with other barking dogs made him come back uneasy. If you ever have an opportunity to board your dog, don’t miss Robert. You’ll be glad you did!”
“Emily was very caring and loving to our dog and treated him like her own while he was in her care. Every step was outlined clearly on what to expect from drop off and daily activities and photos to pick up which helped us have peace of mind. I would highly recommended Emily’s services if you’re looking for a dog sitter who cares for your dog as much as you do.”
“Absolutely phenomenal experience with Barbara 💕 I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Cooper. Barbara treated him like one of her own, and it was so reassuring to see how comfortable and happy he was. She sent daily updates and adorable pictures, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Cooper made himself right at home, cuddling up in Barbara’s bed, lounging on the furniture, and enjoying his time with his new buddy, Enzo! He ate well, slept soundly, played happily, took daily walk’s and was clearly loved and spoiled throughout his stay. It means so much to find someone who genuinely loves and cares for your dog as if he were her own. I would absolutely trust Barbara with Cooper again and cannot recommend her highly enough! ❤️🐾🐕”
“Amanda and her boys were simply AMAZING with our dog Maverick. She kept me updated with how he was doing with her, her boys, and their adorable pup Frank. She sent me pictures during his stay too which I loved! He came home happy and tired because they kept him nice and busy, took him for walks and got to have lots of playtime. Maverick will definitely be coming back for some more play time with this wonderful family. Thank you Amanda!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Jilma. She took my dogs in on very short notice and was absolutely amazing from start to finish. I really appreciated how communicative she was, she sent regular updates and tons of adorable pictures that completely put my mind at ease. It was clear my dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the whole time. I’m so grateful for her flexibility and kindness we’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾💛”
“Alisha, Mike, and their kids are amazing with our spunky Kaia girl! Kaia recently stayed with them for 2.5 weeks while we were out of the country. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing she was with them. They always go above and beyond for her. They are our first choice when needing dog care, whether it’s for the day or a long vacation. Thank you Alisha and Mike!”
About: I am a Massage Therapist for over 26 years taking a little break from the spa world. I found myself having extra time. Recently, my friends have been asking me to dog sit for them and I thought why not open my services to my community. I recently watched a very sweet dog for a week became very attached giving lots of love and massages. I have a friendly five year-old dog that loves companionship. We have a pool that we all love to get into and cool off. I can give dog baths, dog walks dog parties. Have comfort in knowing that your dog will be well taken care of. I have the flexibility with my work schedule to only be gone 5 to 6 hours any given day. I can do check-ins a couple of times a day as well as overnight sitting in my own home. We have a decent size fenced yard. We live on a pretty quiet street with only one or two dog neighbors. My dog copper is very friendly and loves company. Copper normally stays inside, especially during the hot months. We have a park nearby that I like to throw the ball and get the wiggles out. On occasion, we take our dog to a dog park.

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 Sage 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 Sage 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 Sage.
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 Sage. On Rover:
- 90% 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 Sage 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.
