“Excellent experience! Buffy loved Deana and came home happy and relaxed. I really appreciated the updates and the photos throughout the boarding and it's clear that Deana genuinely loved and cares for the dogs. High recommend and will definitely book again!”
“Anton took excellent care of our dogs. He consistently updated us with photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs looked happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. We truly appreciated his attentiveness and dedication.”
About: Married couple with two helpful teens and a really cool Siberian Husky. My background working with animals includes the Kauai Humane Society where I spent over a decade caring/training and assisting the Vet clinic. I worked independently doing in house visits and I also boarded pets in our home. I can administer meds and have experience with injections. I will not board more one dog unless it is part of your pack. Your pup or pups will be exclusively with Kano only. I work from home. Between my husband and I we are always home. We do not leave dogs outside unattended or alone. We would provide 24 hour care in our quiet gated neighborhood. Fenced yard with artificial grass for potty. We will always supervise your best friends and treat them like family. We always supervise Kano when he is outside. Walks are a must for our Husky so if your pup is willing Kano is a go.
“Shuting and her family were great with our dog, she stayed for 2 weeks and when we picked her up she looked happy and healthy. And they even went above and beyond and gave her a (probably much needed with the rain and running) bath. We would have her stay again if needed :).”
“Bonnie is a gem. She’s very easy to work with. Her family was wonderful with our dog. The pics gave us ease our dog was just fine. I have used her twice already and will continue to do so.”
About: I’ve had no less than 3 dogs and as many as 5 for the last 25 years. All things dog put me in my happy place and I’d love to help you out with yours. I’ve had puppies and seniors and everything in between. I work part time so I’m semi flexible. Tell me what you need and I’ll do my best to make it work. I’d love to add to my end of week and weekend work. I have a fully fenced backyard and a separate fenced side yard. Both have shady areas. I also don’t mind having pets in my home so I’d imagine they would be inside with me the majority of the time. I’m also open to whatever you need for your pet in your home.
“Natalie was a absolute lifesaver! As a first-time client, I was nervous about leaving my baby dog; Taz, but Natalie immediately put me at ease with daily updates and photos. I never had to wonder how Taz was doing. I couldn't be more thankful to have found a person who cares about my baby dog like I do.”
“This was our dog’s first stay with a pet sitter. I was very nervous as we had a previous dog pass away in an accident with a different sitter. We did a meet and greet with Joanne about a month before our dog’s stay. Fae stayed with Joanne for four nights and Joanne was very communicative with pictures and texts and asked questions as needed. We will for sure be using Joanne for our pet sitting needs in the future.”
About: I love animals. I have 2 fun loving French Bulldogs who loves to play. The dogs have access to a fenced backyard with plenty of space to play. I am very flexible and can work around your schedule. I work from home on Thursdays and Fridays. Will have access to backyard. I keep the sliding door open. I will supervise at all times. Let me know your needs. Fun, loving, home. Will treat your pets as I'd they were mine. I have a large fenced backyward with plenty of space to play. Will provide daily pictures and/or videos of your fur baby. I may ask you to bring crate depending on how many dogs I am caring for.
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life! I grew up caring for many animals…cats, dogs, fish, quail, chickens and a rabbit. I currently have 3 dogs and a tortoise. I can’t imagine life without the love of animals! I have a lot of experience with puppies and senior dogs with medical needs. Since I work from home, I am available during most work hours. I am also a full time mom, so I’m typically unavailable during school drop-off and pick-up times, but otherwise flexible availability. I would love to spend time with your pet in whatever capacity you need. I can walk, play fetch, take to the park, or just sit and cuddle. I can feed, bathe, and distribute medication. I am able to just stop in, or stay in your home for a number of hours, but am not able to stay overnight.
“Robert and Aimee were amazing taking care of our dog Moy. They were loving and kind with him, sent updates constantly and even got him a present for Christmas! I highly recommend them!”
“Shauna took great care of my baby! I think my dog thought I paid to send her to camp! She had a great time and had some new experiences meeting her horse, goat and chickens… and the great chicken race! Scarlett says thanks for the cuddles and making her feel like she was at home! We’ll be booking Shauna again!”

About: 🐾Love By Pets. Recommended by humans. Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, breeds, temperaments, and care levels. Improving the lives of animals is my passion. Every pet that enters my care is treated like family, receiving the same love, patience, respect, protection and individualized attention I would want for my own beloved pets. Whether you have a puppy, a fragile senior, a pregnant or nursing mother, a shy rescue, or a pet with medical, behavioral, or anxiety-related challenges, I provide compassionate, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, enriching, stress-free and FUN experience that allows pets to thrive while giving their owners complete peace of mind. ✨ Experience Includes: • All ages. Puppies, kittens (bottle feeding ok 👍🏻), seniors, and hospice care • Pregnant animals and nursing mothers • Medication administration and specialized care plans • Medical, behavioral, and anxiety-related conditions • Fearful, reactive, rescue, and special-needs pets • Giant breeds (120–200+ lbs), toy breeds, and everything in between • Bully breeds, guardian breeds, working dogs, and high-drive breeds • Exotic and specialty felines • Birds, reptiles, and small animals • Multi-pet households My experience extends far beyond traditional pet sitting. I have spent years working with animal rescues and participating in Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and community cat programs, helping care for and advocate for vulnerable animals. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, trust-building, and how to safely handle pets with a wide range of personalities and backgrounds. I have also been honored to participate in efforts supporting families through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, including helping facilitate meaningful visits for children whose wish was to spend time with animals and pets. These experiences further strengthened my commitment to compassion, reliability, and providing comfort during life’s most meaningful moments. Caring for others—both human and animal—is at the heart of everything I do. Communication is one of my highest priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet’s stay so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your family member is safe, happy, and loved. 💗 What Makes My Care Different? • Personalized, one-on-one attention for the duration • Flexible and accommodating scheduling • Solo daycare available upon request • Extended stays welcome • Customized routines tailored to your pet • Calm, loving, family-oriented environment • Experience with pets requiring advanced handling skills • Care from someone who genuinely loves animals and understands their individual needs Many of my clients become long-term members of my pet-care family. I’m proud to have earned the trust of repeat clients who rely on me to care for everything from tiny teacups and exotic pets to giant breeds, working dogs, bully breeds, seniors, rescues, and pets with complex medical or behavioral needs. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. That’s why I focus on building trust, maintaining open communication, and ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, understood, and loved from the moment they arrive. I look forward to welcoming your furry, feathered, or scaly family member and giving them the same level of care, compassion, and attention I would give my own. Because every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve family. 🐾💕 My schedule revolves around pet care already. Caring for animals has been a major part of my daily life for many years through pet care/sitting/walking etc, animal rescue work, and caring for my own pets. While your pet is with me, this is their time and all of my focus and attention is on them for the duration of the booking. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, companionship, medication administration when needed, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a flexible schedule, or specialized care, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to each animal’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, favorite activities, fears, quirks, and any special instructions. Owner guidance and instructions are key to providing the best possible booking and any information provided will be followed closely (and greatly appreciated!). One thing that sets my care apart is that I do not use kennels or crates unless they are already part of your pet’s normal routine and you specifically request it. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, secure, and at home—not confined unnecessarily. For families looking for a more personalized experience, I also offer accommodations such as Private Doggy Daycare, Private Kitty Daycare, Private Canine Camp, and Private Kitty Camp, where your pet can be the only guest in my care for the duration of their stay. I am always happy to discuss special requests and customize care whenever possible. Whether caring for a tiny breed, a giant breed, a working dog, a bully breed, a senior pet, or a rescue animal with unique needs, safety, comfort, and individualized attention always come first.
“Asmita and her Husband can be the best one can ask for when taking care of your pet. I was very impressed in their communication and keeping me posted everyday about how Sparky was taken care along with photos, I was stress free during my trip and would strongly recommend them anytime. I am glad I chose them as my sitter and would definitely drop Sparky anytime we are traveling.”
“Dipendra was amazing!!!! Dependable, responsible, and communicative!!!! I received pictures, videos, and when I contacted him, he responded immediately. Highly recommend!!!!!”
“Carlos and his wife were so wonderful with Tinkerbell; they are so gentle and attentive, and took her on a variety of fun outings. I know she’ll be so excited the next time she gets to see them! I will definitely be a repeat customer.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sand Hill
This was our first time boarding our dogs, and we are so grateful for Lauren & Mike. They gave us such peace of mind knowing our dogs were in a safe and caring environment while we were away. Our dogs came home happy and healthy, and we know they received lots of attention and love. We highly recommend them!
Cheri was wonderful to my Beni. It was his first time staying with someone and Cheri made him feel right at home. She cuddled with him and loved him like her own. She kept me updated on how he was doing which put me at ease being away from him. So happy I found her.
Natalie was absolutely wonderful with Audie! From the meet & greet through drop-off, her communication was top-notch: she sent regular photo and video updates that made it so easy to relax and enjoy our trip knowing he was in great hands. Audie has separation anxiety, but settled in quickly and didn’t howl, which says a lot about how comfortable she made him feel. She handled his dinner meds and evening supplements without missing a beat, and clearly gave him plenty of playtime and attention in her backyard. When our flights got us home very late, Natalie generously offered to keep him one more night rather than do a late drop-off, which was such a thoughtful call and exactly the kind of judgment you want from someone caring for your dog. He came home happy, well-loved, and clearly had a great time. We’d book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Natalie!
Anu took care of my 5 month old Basset Hound for 3 nights. My puppy is very shy and nervous around strangers, and Anu was awesome at making her feel safe and secure very quickly. She sent pictures, videos, and updates everyday so I could see how happy and comfortable she was. Anu was great with communication & was absolutely wonderful and caring with my puppy. We will definitely be a repeat customer for boarding and would recommend her to others!
I’ve already booked with Joanne twice, and she’s been wonderful both times. She took care of Zoe like she was part of her own pack, which gave me so much peace of mind. Joanne is very communicative, kind, and clearly loves the dogs she cares for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pup.
My escape artist dog ran off on Camille and she spent no less than 8 hours tracking him down and searching for him, and finally finding him (past midnight). She is undoubtedly the most dedicated pet sitter that exists in the world!!! Thank you and your friends, Camille!!!

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 Sand Hill 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 Sand Hill.
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 Sand Hill 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.
