“I left my Golden Retriever (Jake) with Nathan and Paula) for two weeks. Jake had a great time playing with their two little girls and they sent me great photos every day. I was certainly pleased with Jake’s experience and would highly recommend.”
“Victoria watched our dog Betsy for a weekend while we were out of town and everything went smoothly! Betsy was very comfortable and Victoria maintained communication daily to give us updates on her! She followed the schedule provided and took wonderfully care of Betsy!”
“My dog had the absolute best time with her. I was worried at first he might feel timid, but they made sure he had a safe heaven at their home. I got plenty of updates, I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you again for caring for Loki!”
“Hanah & Dabin were absolutely amazing with my pup! They took her on so many fun adventures and kept me updated with hourly photos, which I really appreciated. It was clear she was having a great time, and she came back home happy and relaxed!”
“We had the best experience! Rodrigo took excellent care of our pup, sent us updates daily and we couldn't be happier knowing our dog was in great hands while we were away. I highly recommend to anyone who wants a great home environment for their pup.”
“Diana was absolutely wonderful while caring for our dog during our vacation! From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly loves what she does. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of attention and affection. It’s not easy leaving your pet behind, but Diana made the whole experience stress-free. We would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“So sweet! Very nice couple and their dog is adorable and well behaved also. Avery had a great time! They even sent him home with a really cute photo of himself. I can’t say enough good things and I will definitely use her again.”
“Monica is absolutely wonderful! We are new to Rover so we had a ton of question and were pretty anxious as well. However, Monica made us and little Taro feel instantly at home. Everytime she sends us a picture, Taro is either smiling, roaming around, or cuddling with her, which is such a wonderful surprise because he doesn't do this to everyone - especially in a new setting/environment! Monica even gave us some tips and tricks to train Taro too and we'll for sure implement them moving forward. Thank you, Monica! ♥️”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet! Whether you’re away at work, out for the day, or just need an extra hand, I want you to feel confident knowing your furry family member is getting the love, attention, and care they deserve. I’m a proud dog mom to Moose, my Bernese Mountain Dog, so I’m no stranger to big personalities, playful energy, and dogs who need a little extra attention! Having a large dog of my own has taught me the importance of patience, understanding different personalities, and making sure every pup feels comfortable and cared for. I also work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to offer walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. Whether your dog needs a nice long walk, a potty break, some playtime, or just a little companionship while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup and treat them like one of my own! 🐾 Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home, which allows me to be highly available and flexible with your dog's needs. Whether it's providing multiple walks, play sessions, or simply being there to keep your dog company, I'm able to give them the attention and care they deserve throughout the day. I understand how important it is to ensure your dog feels safe and comfortable while you're away, and my home setup allows me to give them the constant companionship and supervision that provides peace of mind. With my flexible schedule, your dog will never feel alone for too long, and I can accommodate any special routines or care they might need. I take great pride in providing a safe, loving, and enriching environment for your dog, whether they are staying in my home or yours. In my townhome, I have a secure, gated park where your dog can run off-leash and enjoy some fun, exercise, and fresh air. The community is dog-friendly, with safe pathways and a peaceful environment, ensuring your dog is always in good hands. Inside my home, I make sure there’s plenty of cozy space for your dog to relax, play, or nap—whatever they prefer. I also maintain a consistent routine to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. For in-home pet sitting, I make sure to follow your dog's routine closely, keeping them in familiar surroundings while still offering playtime, walks, and lots of attention. Whether in my home or yours, I ensure that your dog gets plenty of love, exercise, and care to keep them happy and relaxed.
“Ana is really experienced with dogs and it shows. I felt comfortable knowing Copper was in great care with her. She is very understanding and took care of Copper well. It looked like he had a great time too. Thank you Ana and her family.”
“Jeff was so cating and Alfred really loved and connected with him. I appreciate how much help he was and how comfortable and c occupied my puppy was kept. Will definitely be back”
About: I am new to Rover but began pet sitting for neighbors at 16 years old. I have experience with both small and large dogs, including my own 90 lb lab who I trained from an 8 week old puppy into adulthood. You can feel at complete ease knowing your dog will be well cared for in a very loving, comfortable, and clean home while you are away. We have a big, fully fenced-in back yard, as well as a nice neighborhood for walks. I am home all day and am able to accommodate anything your dog needs. I have a very flexible schedule and am able to accommodate both daytime care as well as multi-night overnight boarding with full availability with advanced notice. We have a fully-fenced in back yard as well as a clean home for your dog to feel comfortable while you are away. We also have a very friendly 2.5 year old male English Lab to be a playmate and keep your dog company.
“Doug and his fiance took amazing care of our big, energetic lab. Daily Photo updates showed our pup had a great time free-roaming the quarters and truly enjoying himself. Thank you Doug and Candace for making sure Beanz was safe and able to enjoy/decompress while away from us/his home. Will most definitely book Doug again for Beanz’s care :)”
“This is our second time booking with her and she is amazing! I am always really nervous about who watches my fur babies. But she does an excellent job of taking care of them, giving them attention and love and taking them for walks. She always updates me with pictures and information. She’s also very understanding about delayed flights lol will definitely be using her again.”
“Rachel was awesome!! She sent us photos of our girls each day. She took good care of them! They came home relaxed and happy. Rachel will be our “ go to” Pet sitter from now on! We are so happy with her care of our precious little furry girls!!!”
“Jordan was amazing! It was my first time using Rover and she was so kind and reassuring. Atlas had a wonderful time and was so well cared for. She provided such great communication and pictures while caring for his energy needs and daily living activities. Would 10000% re book her again!”
About: In addition to raising my own pets, I have experience looking after multiple pets of friends and family members. Hoping to happily provide the same service to your fur babies! If the pet(s) will be staying with me, I can easily watch over them at all hours from Thursday-Sunday. If I will be visiting your residence, I will be available during the evening on weekdays and all day on weekends There is a park near my residence that is great for walking dogs. Having a hybrid job also allows me to monitor them at all hours from Thursday-Sunday and can take them out as needed.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Santa Ana Heights
Jessica was INCREDIBLE as a sitter for our pup! She regularly sent us updates and photos which were much appreciated. Our dog was happy, healthy, & living the dream with her. We would definitely book again and we know our pup would be in safe hands with her. Thank you so much Jessica!
Dawn was amazing! I dropped off an 18 week puppy! And four days later, I picked up a dog that walks by my side, knows to pee outside only! Dawn sent pictures, and took the time to share some incredible training advice which I’m using. She was caring, attentive and so conscientious. She even ordered a chewing toy for Honey will definitely return and can’t recommend highly enough. Ten Stars!!!
I highly recommend Victoria. She was wonderful with our 9 year old Labrador. He can be a little nervous in new situations and she took great care of him. It was his second time staying with her and he was excited to see her when we dropped him off. I am very happy with her care of our dog and her communication with me. I am confidant our dog can be cared for by Victoria when we need daycare or overnight boarding. Thank you, Victoria!
Mykah is so sweet, and we felt completely comfortable leaving Zero in her care! He was calm and content when we picked him up, which made us so happy! ❤️ Thank you so much for taking such great care of him! If it weren’t for you, Zero would’ve had to stay home in Utah. You made it possible for us to enjoy a day at Disneyland and have Zero here to enjoy the beach with us all week! We’re so grateful!! 🥰🐾
This is the second time I have booked with Ning and I have a third time booked already. Ning is a perfect dog mom! She sends pictures and videos several times a day and is so attentive. She often has 2-3 dogs. Dusty loves playing with them and loves his one on one time with Ning. Highly recommend.
Jeffrey was the best dog sitter we've had so far. Our dogs absolutely loved him, and it showed. He sent us regular updates and pictures, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely be using him again and highly recommend him to any dog owner.
Jeff and his lovely wife Cara took great care of my Maltopoo for over two weeks. I am grateful for the love and care she got, and all the fun photos I received while away on my trip. It made me happy to see my dog was on vacay just like I was far away. Thank you Jeff and Cara for such a great stay!
I won’t leave Charlotte with just anybody. As sweet as she is, she still needs a lot of attention and supervision. I appreciate Chris taking time getting to know Charlotte and allowing us time getting to know him. During Charlotte’s stay, Chris sent pictures and videos, and gave her lots of play time, which she needs. Chris seemed caring and knowledgeable, which gave me some peace of mind while she was in his care.
Shannon and her family were 11/10! They watched Gigi at their home for 4 days while we were traveling for a wedding and took such great care of her! They have a huge fenced in backyard for the dogs to play in and a lot of room indoors as well. I received many photo updates of Gigi during my time away and will definitely be going to Shannon for any future travel :)
My dog seemed to love Eileen and her husband! I got tons of fun photos and videos during my long trip, and it really helped me feel at ease that my dog was getting love and attention. They also were very helpful in spending time to show me the specific walking routes and parks they would take her. Would definitely book again.

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 Santa Ana Heights 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 Santa Ana Heights.
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 Santa Ana Heights 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 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.
