“Five stars aren't enough for Christine! She watched our two dogs for a week and went above and beyond the entire time. She kept us updated with regular photos and check-ins, so we always knew our dogs were safe and having a great time. I never once felt anxious leaving them behind — and that peace of mind is priceless. We will absolutely be coming back to Christine every time we need a sitter. Highly, highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“It was Bella’s first time staying here, and she had such a great time. I felt so happy and reassured knowing she was in good hands. Thank you for taking great care of her”
“Kylee is the best dog sitter I have had. She sends lots of pictures Which I loved. She was very understanding that this was the first time we left our doberman. Being able to see Bella have fun was so reassuring that I picked the right person to care for her.. Kylee is going to be our go to person for Bella. Kylee and her family were so welcoming and her house was dog friendly which I loved as well. Other dog sitter have rules about their house, which is completely fine. But we treat Bella like she is a true part of the family, and I got the same feels from Kylee.”

About: I've been caring for friends' dogs for the past eight years, ever since I became a dog mom myself. Because I work from home, I'm able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and potty breaks throughout the day. I'm the kind of dog mom who throws my pup a birthday party every year, complete with treats, decorations, and lots of love. Dogs are truly part of the family in my house. Hi! My name is Kendra, and I'm a marketing professional who works remotely from home full-time. I have an 8-year-old Goldendoodle named Henry, who has spent many happy days with Rover sitters over the years. Now that I'm working from home, I'm excited to provide the same level of care and attention to other dogs that I always wanted for my own. My home is located in a quiet neighborhood and features a fully fenced yard, providing a safe and secure space for dogs to explore and play. I believe in regular updates and clear communication, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“So great! This was our first time boarding our dog and we were really nervous, but she seemed to have the time of her life. The photo updates really put our minds at ease, our dog is a little shy but we could tell she was totally happy and comfortable. Thank you!”
“We highly recommend Shari! From our meet and greet to the drop off and pick up, she was wonderful. Our dog Izzie, who can get anxious and nervous, was given the attention she needed, especially in a place she had never been before. So happy to have decided to try Rover.com and to find Shari. Maura and Joel”
“Really great dog sitters for my dog Mango. I just know every time I book with Saawan and Kangna, my anxious dog calms down so much! I love seeing the updates and photos of Mango having fun playing and relaxing. Will rebook and highly recommend these two for great service.”
“Meagan took wonderful care of our sweet Ellie Mae. Ellie quickly warmed up to her, much quicker than we anticipated. Meagan sent pics of Ellie and kept us apprised as to how she was doing. We will definitely use Meagan in the future. She even left us a thoughtful surprise.”
“I am so glad we found Katie! Our two senior pups did so well under her care. It's always nerve-wracking to leave our dogs for an extended period of time, but I really trusted that they would be safe and happy with Katie. She was great with giving medications to our seizure-prone boy, and really understood what our dogs needed. She also sent frequent photos which was really wonderful! I would definitely recommend Katie for long-term boarding and for short dog sitting, and will definitely have my pups stay with her in the future.”
“Kristen was a god send. Our little guy can be a bit nervous. Kristen was a perfect fit for our pup. Her home is warm and inviting. Her two dogs are well cared for. She kept me updated with pictures throughout our trip. I’m so grateful we found her so we can travel with confidence in our dogs care. We will definitely be using her in the future to watch our pup.”
“It was my first time letting my dog with Andrea, I love it she is a very loving and flexible person , I would Leave my doggie with her again! She and her husband they are very kind , thank very much I really appreciate it guys , you are the best!!!”
“Angelica took excellent care of my dog! He came home exhausted from playing with the other dogs in her beautiful backyard. Would definitely recommend her to a friend :)”
“Mariia saved me at short notice when another sitter canceled unexpectedly and I needed overnight care for my dog. Mariia is a kind and understanding and took excellent care of Atlas and sent me photos and updates. I was honestly surprised how well it went, considering my dog is anxious and needy. I would hire Mariia again in a heartbeat.”

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 Saint Joseph home-away-from-home, 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 Saint Joseph.
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 Saint Joseph 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 , 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 .
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 OR 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.
