“We had a wonderful experience with our Rover sitter! She sent daily pictures and updates. Her home was clean and welcoming, and the fenced yard was perfect for our dog to safely play outside. Our dog came home happy and well cared for, and it was so sweet seeing her little girls give our pup a goodbye kiss on the way out. We would absolutely book with her again!”


“Scarlett and Rowan were well taken care of and loved by Brennon and his wife Ashley while we were out of town for 5 days. Brennon's dogs are extremely well trained and they were a great pack for our two dogs to be a part of during their stay.”

About: I am a stay at home mom to 5 kids. They love dogs and your dog will get plenty of attention. We have a 4 year old soft coated wheaten terrier. She is super friendly and loves to play with other dogs. She had puppies last summer the kids and I are comfortable and know how to take care of puppies and dogs. Unfortunately we can only care for non shedding or hypoallergenic dogs. We prefer dogs who sleep in a kennel at night. I am a stay at home mom so I’m available most times and can let your dog out frequently for potty breaks. I am flexible. We have a fenced yard with plenty of space for your pet to play. I can also come to your home and take care of your pet there.

“Jay and his family were great. They took our dog in during the Thanksgiving holiday. He is often shy but that was not the case with Jay. We were provided daily updates regarding Charlie’s well being. He was very much pampered. It seems Charlie has found his vacation home when we are in the area again.”

“Bonnie and her family provided a much needed dog-sitting service for our 60 pound Husky mix Cannelle during our stay in Zion. They have an amazing amount of patience. Our dog had previously not had any positive experiences with young children, but hers were very understanding of the situation and gave Cannelle the space she needed to feel comfortable during her stay. Bonnie also sent lots of pictures and videos to update us about Cannelle settling into her home. She's located quite conveniently in between Hurricane and Zion, and we would definitely request her service if we were ever in the area again.”

“Our keke girl was so happy to see us. I believe she was in good hands with Krishna. She answered promptly on my questions & concerns. I appreciate her calm soft kind attitude. Thank you for letting keke stay the day.”

“I had a last minute trip and booked with Whitney! Which was great because sometimes you worry about being able to find someone on such short notice.. especially since I have such a large dog. She was amazing and I highly recommend! She kept me updated everyday with texts and pics and made sure my dog took his vitamins!! I will use her again if I can!”

“Kari was wonderful! it was my first time boarding my pup and was nervous but it went great! was able to be stress free on my vacation thanks to her ! would 100% recommend.”

“We had last minute plans to take a trip for my birthday. Marlon was more than willing to watch our Zora bear over the weekend. It was really sweet to receive pictures during our time apart. She always looked so calm and happy. Our favorite part about boarding with Marlon, is that our Zora got to make the best of friends with two other dogs. It was the cutest thing to see all three of them looking out the window to each other when saying bye. We look forward to building a relationship with Marlon and friends for future visits. We highly recommend them as sitters for any pet family in need of services.”

“Brittany is a lifesaver! We were camping in Zion and the AC went out in our camper, so our dog was basically on the verge of heat stroke. I contacted her and within a little over an hour, Buster was safe safely at her air conditioned home less than 30 minutes away 🥰 She also sent us pictures and updates. Definitely recommend Brittany and her family!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have experience with both small and large dogs. My husband and I have our own dog, Bruno, and I love taking him on walks, hikes, swimming, and to the dog park. I’m currently doing school online, so I’m home and able to give dogs a lot of attention, playtime, and care. I also have a doggy door and fenced yard so dogs can safely go in and out to play throughout the day. I make sure dogs get outside daily, whether that’s walks, playtime, or just getting fresh air and exercise. I’m open to all breeds, sizes, and personalities, and I’d love to make your dog feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away! Like I said, I am doing online school so I will be home all the time. I’m free to babysit your dog on both weekends or weekdays! I have a fenced yard and a doggy door so dogs can safely go in and out throughout the day to play and use the bathroom. My dog Bruno is very friendly and loves being around other dogs. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while staying with me. I’m happy to follow any routines, feeding schedules, or special instructions to make your dog feel at home! Bruno currently sleeps in our bedroom and yours is welcome to as well.
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of animal! I love animals, everyone calls me the animal whisperer. I treat them more like my babies than animals!! I will give them lots of love and attention!! I’m a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to care for your fur baby!! I love going on walks and love being outdoors. I have a big fenced backyard and two friendly dogs that will keep your dog company! I also have room to crate them if needed.
“I love leaving Alain with Rachel and Scott. They always take good care of him . The helped me to booked Alain at the last minute after my other dog sitter canceled me . I trusted leaving my beloved Alain with them . I am really grateful for them .”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and understanding I’ve developed for dogs through years of hands-on experience. I’ve been caring for dogs since 8th grade, starting with my first Shih Tzu and later raising a Cockapoo, then opening my heart to two wonderful rescue dogs—a Foxhound/Cattle Dog mix and a Border Collie/Cattle Dog mix. Caring for dogs of different sizes, energy levels, and personalities has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to make each dog feel safe, loved, and understood, whether they need gentle senior care, playful engagement, or consistent routines. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I genuinely look forward to. Each morning starts with a walk, followed by breakfast and some playtime like fetch to help burn energy and start the day happy. Later in the day, I take them out for another walk around the park for exercise and their second potty break, and we finish the evening with one last walk before bedtime. Nights always end with extra attention—belly rubs and goodnight kisses. I care for pets in my home by providing consistent routines, plenty of exercise, and attentive, gentle care. Each day includes regular walks, scheduled meals, and playtime to keep pets active and comfortable. I make sure they get multiple potty breaks throughout the day, along with quiet time in the evening so they can relax and settle in. I also pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and at home while they’re with me.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a kid. I’m a dog groomer who owns 3 dogs. I always take good care of friends/neighbors dogs! I’m a part-time dog groomer at home, and I would love to use my spare time as a pet sitter. I love working with animals I think about their safety and feeling first so I always examine their behavior and personalities so it helps me when I walk and play with them.
“Rachelle and her family were awesome. Our puppy had a great time at their home and they were so good about sharing updates as well as pictures and really made us feel good about leaving her in their care! We would definitely have them watch her again.”

Santa Clara pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sydney is amazing! We have used her twice now and once for a 10 day trip and even when my pup when over the second time he was so excited to be there! So nice to have so I where to take our pup when we know he loves it and they love him! Will definitely use again!
This was the second time we had Krisanne and Gaston pet sit Brody. The first time was just an overnight stay to see how he would do and he did fine. This time he stayed a week and when we first dropped him off he seemed excited. Later when he realized that we weren’t there I think he started to get anxious and nervous. He had some accidents but Krisanne and Gaston handled it nicely. They keep me updated that Brody was doing better and sent pictures of him playing and taking daily walks with their dog Kylo. I felt comfortable leaving Brody with Krisanne and Gaston and would highly recommend them.
