“We found Jahni when we were in need of a last minute sitter and she has been incredible! Our Ghost is still a puppy so she helped us continue our crate and potty training during his stay with her. We also appreciated the pics and videos she sent to update us on our pup. We could not have asked for a better pet sitter!”
“Our dogs loved going to Lesley’s! I’m not sure they even wanted to come home with us 😊 Lesley was communicative and sent several pictures throughout their stay. I would highly recommend her.”
About: We’re a fun, family home with lots of love to give! Your pup will enjoy playtime, snuggles, and a cozy environment where they’re treated like one of our own. I believe in gentle care, clear communication and making sure you feel comfortable while you’re away Because I work part-time and my husband works from home, there is consistent supervision in our house. Pet care easily fits into our daily rhythm. we’re already used to giving lots of love and attention. Feedings when scheduled.Your pet would be part of our normal family life, not left alone for long stretches. In our home, pets become part of our family’s daily routine. I keep feeding schedules consistent with what they’re used to, provide supervised playtime, outdoor patio breaks, and lots of affection. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, whether they’re playful and social or shy and need a quieter space. Safety is very important to me, so all interactions with my children and our cat are gentle and supervised, and pets are never left outside unattended. I also send regular updates and photos so you always feel connected and at ease.
“Very kind sitter and my dog Winston loves Kitti so much. He’s always happy with Kitti and loved. Very trustworthy and always updates you to let you know how your dog is doing. Winston’s second home.”
“Alice (Junyi) watched our two husky/shepherd mixes for two weeks while we traveled internationally. One of our pups had an injury scare the day before we left. Alice was accommodating, caring, and communicative, consistently sending us videos, pictures, and status updates multiple times per day to help us feel comfortable with his recovery. Both pups seemed to have a great time playing in the backyard, going on walks, and playing fetch, and overall seemed very comfortable and well cared for. We look forward to having Alice watch the pups again in the future!”
“I could not have had a better dog sitter for my dog Remi. She had an amazing time and she did so well with her dog Bruce. Frances was amazing about everything from sending updates, taking pictures, keeping her feeding schedule and talking her on walks. She’s the best dog sitter I’ve had and it’s hard to trust people with your pets especially when they can’t speak up to share their experience. I will definitely work with her in the future. Thank you again!!”
“Repeat visitor and Lisa does a great job taking care of our Ranger. He truly enjoys being there and loves the fun time at the nearby town or backyard fun. She takes the time sending videos and pictures to us throughout Ranger’s stay. Most of all Lisa takes the time to care for our Ranger.”
“YUER was absolutely amazing with my Boxer-Pitbull mix! She understood the breed and their temperament, and was so professional with updates. Scully , his name , was comfortable and happy throughout!”
“I had just finished writing an extensive and detailed message, explaining how they were great with First timers using this kind of service, but then my phone froze and deleted that long detailed review and I’m not gonna take the time to do it again 🤣. Just know that they knew how to handle first timers. I highly recommend them.”
About: Hi! I'm Renae, a lifelong animal lover with a calm, gentle personality and a genuine passion for caring for pets. I know how important it is to feel confident and worry free when you're away, so I focus on safety, communication, and lots of love. I care for pets the way I care for my own, with patience, attention and respect for their routine. I would love to meet your pets and help make your time away easier and stress free. I've designed my schedule around providing reliable, loving attention to every animal I look after seamlessly integrating walks, feeding times and playtime into my flow. I can dog sit 2 pets from same household. Pet care naturally fits into my daily and weekly routine because it blends seamlessly with the rhythm of my home life. Each day includes dedicated time for feeding, fresh water, walks, play and simple check-ins to make sure pets feel calm, comfortable, and loved. I structure my schedule so that pet visits are spaced throughout the day, allowing me to give each animal my full attention and unhurried care.

I received regular updates and could tell he was in safe, loving hands. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for Pogo Highly recommend!”
About: Hi there! I’m so excited to help care for your furry family members. As a lifelong animal lover and dog parent (having raised two wonderful dogs of my own), I know how important it is to find someone you can completely trust with your pets. I currently serve as a trained volunteer at the Pasadena Humane Society, where I work directly with dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. To ensure your pet’s safety is always the top priority, I am fully certified in Cat and Dog First Aid & CPR through the American Red Cross. Whether your pet needs an upbeat walk to burn off energy or a gentle, slow-paced stroll, I adapt to their individual needs and comfort levels. I am particularly experienced and comfortable working with pets who experience anxiety, have special medical needs, or require precise medication administration. When your pet is with me, you can rest easy knowing they are receiving attentive, patient, and loving care. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I currently work from home and have a flexible daily routine. With the exception of an occasional zoom meeting, I can be by your pup’s side. I live in a 3 story townhouse with the main living space on the 3rd floor. Dogs can go wherever I am, and I can carry them up/down stairs if needed. I will treat them as if they were my own pup 😃

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - San Dimas
Jose and Elisa watched our Frenchie, Stone for 10 days while were on vacation. They were amazing, communicated daily and sent photos. We could tell she was happy and loved during her stay. Almost worried Stone wouldn't want to come home as she loved her snuggle time with Elisa. We were able to have a fantastic vacation knowing Stone was in good care. Thank you again, we'll definately use them again.

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.
94% of sitters in San Dimas 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 San Dimas 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 San Dimas.
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 San Dimas. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 San Dimas 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.
