“Erica was amazing! My dog is afraid of strangers and he was having a blast at her place on the first day. I was worried he wouldn't want to come home he had such a good time. She sent me pictures every day and kept me updated on what he was doing. I'll definitely come back, I was never worried about Wilson the whole time.”
“Sarah and Shelby were awesome! Definitely recommend for any of your pet’s services. They took in our 8 month old puppy with short notice for an overnight stay. We were in town from out of state to visit family and this was our dogs first stay away from home. We were updated with pleasant photos throughout the night and they were willing to keep her until noon the next day. Their dogs Ziggy and Titan were very friendly and played well together. We will be back!”
“Lisa was amazing again! She was extremely flexible and took care of Kona on very short notice. Kona had a blast staying with Lisa and her Golden Retriever, Juniper. Lisa was very dependable and followed Kona's strict diet and medications that he needed. I totally trust her to take care of Kona and will continue to use her services in the future!”
“I needed a sitter at the last minute at Ashley did an amazing job of communicating and being flexible and understanding when plans changed or issues arose that needed to to be addressed. She made me feel comfortable and always prioritized my pet's health and safety. I'm so thrilled I found her and will definitely be a return customer the nex time I'm in need of petcare. Do not hesitate to request her services!”
“This was our first time using Rover and leaving our two fur baby frenchies with someone we didn’t know. Adriana was very sweet and even met us before our booking to meet our dogs. She updated us with photos and the dogs and they had a wonderful time. We are thankful for her wonderful care of our fur babies.”
“Caleb watched our pup for 3 days - he is well set up as a pet sitter, providing his own food bowls, poop bags, etc. so that you don’t have to worry about bringing your own.”
“Super grateful for Jasmine! She took a last minute booking for our dog over the holiday weekend so we could visit family. Communication was great, and our dog came home happy and well cared for. Will definitely use them again in the future.”
“Gordon loves going to stay with Michelle, Steve and Daisy! Michelle is a pup expert and we feel really comfortable leaving Gordon in her care. Thank you!”
“Kevin was a great host throughout our dog’s stay with him. Our dog seemed to have a wonderful time He sent photos, and answered promptly. 10/10, definitely would recommend and book again.”
“Holly was great! She took care of our two dogs for 9 days. It was the first time our dogs stayed with her. We could tell from the pictures and short videos that Holly sent us on a daily basis that our fur babies were comfortable and happy. They received a lot of loving attention and were taken on a leash walk twice every day. Holly and her husband have a really nice fenced yard with a large tree for shade plus a covered porch, ideal for dogs to play and enjoy the outdoors. We highly recommend Holly as a dog sitter and will use her dog boarding service again.”
“Sooooo glad we found Demi to take care of our elderly lab. Her house, yard space, tender loving care and dedication to our old gal was perfect. We got daily updates/videos which is a huge comfort. Will plan to have Demi care for our lab for any future needs”
“Alice and Will were fantastic, looking after our fur baby overnight at the last minute. They were super communicative and accommodating. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Madison and her husband were amazing! They were very accommodating with me when I wanted to add an additional day and additional pick up time. They made sure to send many pictures and updates. They even gave me tips on training to make sure what he was taught in those days, stuck. I'll definitely be bringing him back for future stays!”
“Thank you so much for taking such good care of Benji all week. With the park right next door, he had a vacation of his very own. I was so happy to receive all the updates, it gave me such peace of mind knowing he was content. 5 stars for this great experience!”
“Annie and Ty were great with Lexi :) they sent several videos, pictures and updates throughout the stay. They truly cared for Lexi and she was so happy when I picked her up”
“Stacey and Christopher have sat for our pups off and on for several years. We always find them kind and really good with our Goldens. We especially like that they only board one dog at a time and that they are willing to work with them to keep up with their training. We had some concerns about how Kenya would settle in this time, because we had an issue with our previous sitter, but Stacey and Christopher worked with us to help Kenya acclimate and from all appearances, Kenya was a happy pup for the last 10 days.”
“Definitely capable! My dog has meds and a bland breakfast and everything went great. She was super energetic when she came home too, so I'd be happy with her going back and not having to worry!”
“I could not have left Milo with a more loving, caring, and competent person as Alina. She took excellent care of our dog and had great communication skills. I will definitely hire her again. THANK YOU ALINA!!!!”

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.
95% of sitters in Santa Ysabel 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 Santa Ysabel 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 Santa Ysabel.
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 Santa Ysabel. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 Santa Ysabel 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.
