“We're very happy with the care Alex provided for our pup. Very communicative and provided updates while she was in his care. Will definitely use his services again.”
“Tawna& John were incredible! Their facility is well maintained and a wonderful place for our 3 dogs to be cared for while we were gone. They took extra care for our little senior, while our big dogs ran, played, and had a blast. We appreciated the photos and we could tell how happy they were, even our shy girl was all smiles! Communication could not have been better, which made everything all the better. Nothing is better than knowing our dogs were secure and happy — we could just relax and enjoy our vacation!”
“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! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Lyssette and family took great care of Gracie while we were away. She checked in with pictures and videos to keep us aware of how things were going. Looking forward future stays w Lyssette!”
“I would highly recommend booking with Chloe, she made my Lab feel right at home and took great care of him. He got daily snuggles and lots of outside time and had the best time! He came back really happy and I was happy to get daily pictures of him and updates while I was out of town.”
“Matt was incredible and took such good care of our pup. We were traveling through the area and needed a home base for Malu for a few nights and were a bit nervous leaving her. Matt sent updates and photos everyday, and it was clear she was having a blast with all of the other pups and he was treating her like his own. He was super flexible on pick up and drop off times too. Would highly recommend!!”
“Tara was so gracious watching my dog over the holidays on short notice. We received lots of fun photos of my dog’s week stay at Tara’s winter wonderland! Thank you so much.”
“I traveled over the mountain passes to and from dropping Rogue off. So and Jon were very accommodating of my needs. I didn't meet So, but Jon was friendly, professional and kind to me and Rogue. They both sent several videos and pictures to me over the course of the weekend. I give them two big thumbs up!”
“Our little senior doxie, Rocky, spent 2 weeks with Barbara and we couldn’t be more happy with how it went! Barbara gave him lots of love and cuddles, and they spent some time watching Dodger baseball together. Rocky can’t wait for the next time he can spend time with Barbara 😊”
“Chris, Angela, and their family are great with our anxious puppy, Lemon. She always looks forward to seeing them. They send lots of updates so we never have to worry!”
“This was our two pups’ first stay with Suzie, and we will definitely be booking with her again the next time we travel! We received lots of photos and “pupdates” throughout our trip, which eased our concerns about being away. Suzie goes out of her way to be generous and kind to both pet and pet-parent. We are grateful to have found someone we trust and who our two (otherwise nervous) dogs felt safe and comfortable to be around. Thanks Suzie!!”
“Kind and caring. Our dog bolts right inside like it’s her second home (we try to tell her it’s not). She loves Ron’s dog Emma, which seems to really help with having a companion dog there with ours to keep her company while boarding.”
“I know my Marvel will be treated like family by Juliann, receiving lots of love, attention and stimulation. Knowing he’s being well-cared for allows me to relax when I have to be away. That peace of mind is priceless!”
“Paula is a dog person thru and thru and I loved knowing my Lily pug was safe in her care. Will use Paula again :) Thank you again for taking such good care of our lily pug!”
“Brittany and Blase are both completely fantastic! They are very knowledgeable and friendly and did an excellent job with my dog Taylor. It was my first time using Rover and Taylor’s first time staying with new people and everything was fantastic! They communicated frequently and I could see in all of the photos and videos they sent how happy and comfortable Taylor was. They took great care of her and she got all of the play time, attention, and snuggles she could ever want. I highly recommend them and will absolutely be rebooking in the future!”
“Chewbacca (Chewy) had a wonderful stay with Josh and Leah. We recieved pictures often and updates on how he was doing. He was well taken care of as if he was a member of their own family. We highly recommend Joshua and Leah for your dogs stay! We can't thank them enough for their kindness to our Chewy!”
“Our golden stayed with Halyley and Graham for a week, and clearly had a wonderful time. We appreciated the daily photos and reports, and had total confidence that Piccolo was in good loving hands. Thanks, you guys! We'll contact you again.”
“Allison was very accommodating with our dog Yoshi who still has a lot of puppy energy. I could tell that Yoshi had a great stay, he came back home calm and very affectionate. I'll definitely reach out to Allison for dog sitting in the future.”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Kelsi! Will definitely book again next time we need a sitter. She took amazing care of my dogs and communication was great. We got fun little updates and pictures everyday. Thank you!!”

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, 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 Saint Joseph.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 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 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.
