“Virginia took the best care of our almost one year old Lab/pitbull puppy. She sent pics & videos & I can tell he was spoiled during his doggy vacation. Highly recommend for quality care and flexibility with drop off/pick up.”
About: My husband and I have had animals in our lives for as long as we can remember. We share our home with cats and a dog, volunteer with local humane societies, and have experience fostering and caring for kittens. We’re also comfortable with senior pets and pets with medical needs after reviewing their routines with you. We serve the Hidden Valley Lake area only. We can care for pets in your home, or welcome them into ours if they’re comfortable around cats. We require a meet and greet before any booking so everyone, including our own pets, feels comfortable. While your pet is with us, we’ll follow their routine and treat them like family. My husband is retired, and I work from home, so we can give pets attention throughout the day. We plan care around each pet’s needs, whether that means visits in your home or a stay in ours. We start with a meet and greet to learn your pet’s routine and decide together whether they’d be most comfortable in your home or ours. Cats are our specialty, and we also enjoy caring for dogs who are comfortable with everyday walks and visits. We don’t offer dog training or behavior modification. A stay in our home depends on your pet being comfortable around our six cats and large dog. We have a fully fenced side yard and a fenced backyard, and visiting pets are always supervised outdoors.
“Diego was wonderful for our needed long weekend get away. He immediately suggested a meet and greet, which I prefer for a first time stay. He is very detailed and genuinely interested in getting all the facts, tips, and tricks for our pup, Eire. He took her on daily walks, cuddled her, and sent photos while we were away. Diego was able to give Eire his full attention. Not to mention our pup was so happy and still wanting to play with Diego when we picked her up. We will be looking for Diego’s availability for future trips. Highly recommend!”
“Once again Leslie took wonderful care of our Abby!!! We are so lucky to have her and feel very fortunate that we found her. Leslie provides frequent updates and lots of walks for our girl!! We love her and so does our Abby!!!”
“Michael and his wife were excellent hosts for our dog. No issues and we would highly recommend them for others who are in need of a dog sitter in the Calistoga area. Since our dog doesn't like the kennel environment so well, this was a great option.”
“Earl was great to work with! He is easy going and great with animals. He was flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely recommend this provider and we will surely be using him again in the future.”
“Sarah did a great job with Tucker. She updated me a ton with pictures and how he was doing. He had a great time with her and came home happy and tired. Tucker loved his stay with Sarah and her family. I definitely reccomend her and I am a crazy dog mum so I felt comfortable leaving my fur baby with her.”
“Susan was an amazing caretaker for Ryder this past weekend! She took him on several fun walks and made it feel like a little vacation for him. We loved receiving her updates and adorable photos throughout his stay. Ryder was clearly very well cared for, and we would absolutely love to have Susan help with him again in the future.”
“This has been our dog's second stay with Amber and Michael, and they have been fantastic! Amber keeps us informed with updates and pictures so that we can feel relaxed and confident that our dog is being well cared for. I would highly recommend them!”
“Five stars * * * * *, Merrill has been wonderful, very easy to communicate with, trustworthy, responsive, and my dog feels very comfortable around her. I definitely feel like I can have peace of mind knowing my pup is well taken care of and in good hands. Highly recommend, and will book again.”
About: I’ve worked with both kittens and puppies, so I understand the extra patience, attention, and care young pets need. I also have experience with both big and small dogs, which helps me adapt to different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I’m available every day after 3 PM once school is over, and I’m free on weekends. During the summer and school breaks, I have a much more flexible schedule and am available throughout the day. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and consistent care. I care for pets directly in my client’s home to help them stay comfortable in their familiar environment and keep their normal routine. I follow any specific instructions provided, including feeding schedules, walk times, medication needs, and preferred routines. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection so they feel safe and not lonely while their owners are away. I keep the home clean and respect the space by tidying up after feeding, walks, or any messes, and I always make sure the pet is secure before leaving.
About: I have had a dog or two most of my life. Growing up we had Maltese & Golden Retrievers. I even had my Golden, Beau, in college at UCSB. My husband & I miss our two St Bernards, Donner(220 lbs) & Sierra (185 lbs). Our Eskipoo, Marley lived to be 20 1/2! We got our Laboradoodle Sirlancelot when he was a puppy 5 years ago so Marley had a companion during his last years. Lancelot will walk with us if you want him to join us! Dogs are always invited to our home when friends stop by or when we have dinner parties! People always say, " dogs just are drawn to you!" I often foster doggies. For some reason they come to our back door and want to stay with us. I would love to meet your doggies!! Life is better with dogs! We have a fenced in backyard and live close to dog parks and many walking and hiking trails. I can crate your pup if required. We discuss your needs and create a custom plan for your dog’s care. I enjoy helping train your pup & have had many years of experience with senior doggies. I multitask working on the Rover app and Task Rabbit app. My schedule is flexible and dogs are in my daily routine. I typically have at least one doggie with me! We have a a fenced in front yard & large beach in the backyard. I'm happy to crate your dog if requested.I l listen to you & care for your fur babies accordingly.
About: I’ve always loved cats and dogs I could never pick a side. I had a Chihuahua growing up and currently have a cat called Bonbon. So I know how to take care of both dogs and cats. I understand cats enjoy their space while dogs don’t understand that word. Which I don’t mind at all. :) I am currently going to school right now so I have a lot of time in between my days to take care of your pet(s) wether it’s stopping be for their meal time or taking them on a walk I am happy to do so. I have classes currently Mondays and Wednesdays so my availability might be little more tight but will still be available. I know how to keep pets safe such as know in what dogs and cats should refrain from eating and can make sure that your pet is always safe and knows they are being cared for while you are away.
“Julie is the best! She not only took incredible care of our 10-year old dog Maxine, she helped make our dream of having her in our wedding possible. She brought her to the venue looking brushed and beautiful, and picked her up after a couple hours to go home and rest. Julie was wonderful with sharing adorable pictures and updates about Maxine, and her dog Charlie is as sweet as can be. She was able to administer Maxine’s medication with no problems, and we knew the whole time that Maxine was in great hands. Highly recommend Julie if you need someone to take gentle care of your senior doggie in the St. Helena area!”
“Veronica was an excellent choice for my Tito. She is professional, experienced and a very kind person. Tito was made to feel right at home and was very happy while with Veronica. He had his first pupcup and she sent him home with the cutest hallow costume. I highly recommend her for your pet. ❤️”
About: Walks through Armstrong Redwoods are a favorite activity. I have a large yard and a dog friendly house. I have a couple of years experience working in a veterinary clinic giving me experience medicating animals, including giving injections. I have a pool for dogs who love to swim! I was a volunteer and puppy raiser for Canine Companions for Independence back in the mid to late 1980's, and a Puppy Petter for Assistance Dog Institute in the early 2000's. I've also kept busy with boarding in my home for friends and acquaintances. I love dogs!! I have Sundays and Mondays off from my full time job, but I can fit in a nice walk after 4 pm most other days. When I have someone's dog, they get my full attention; we play, exercise, snuggle. My focus is providing an enriching experience for your dog .
About: Hey there! I'm a gal who doesn't own a dog (just 3 cats!) who works from home some days of the week and is happy to take care of your pooch! I joke with my friends and family that I'm a kennel for their pups when they go out of town - why not help out other local friends! I have owned dogs my whole life but just don't have the time to own one currently so I'm happy to help out those that need someone to watch their fur baby! We have a wonderful large fenced yard in a quiet part of St. Helena. Your dog can have free access to the home and our fenced in yard. Quiet neighborhood next to vineyards where the pup can play! Happy to help you out - bring on the dogs! I love them all and am a fun and active person who will take wonderful care of your pet ( just ask my friends how obsessed I am with my cats Grover, Fat Freddy & Ralph!!). Thank you! I work from an office most days with the exception of event weekends and some evenings. I do sometimes have to leave during the day but your dog would be in a secure home with us. Fenced yard on the vineyard and close by lots of walking and vineyards. We do have 3 cats so I prefer your dog to be cat friendly or be able to take some hissing from them.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Salminas Resort
. Diego was truly a blessing. His kindness, gentleness, and genuine care for Hemi were evident from the start. Hemi returned to us happy, well-cared-for, and clearly comfortable. We would absolutely use Diego’s services again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate dog sitter..more pleased. Diego was truly a blessing.

We will never leave our golden fur-baby with anyone else. Diego is a dog professional- not just a student or other person needing extra money. Diego knows dog behavior. He understands both the canine's and his peoples' emotional needs. Received pics and updates daily. Responded to our golden's anxiety issues and made him feel safe and loved. He even came for a "meet and greet" prior to our trip. He immediately went down to his doggie level and just loved on our golden who was obviously smitten with him. He is just the best!!!

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 Salminas Resort 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 Salminas Resort.
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 Salminas Resort 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.
