“We were apprehensive as Luna is only 7 months old and has never been apart from us, but Sabrina reassured us she would be fine. She asked all the right questions (feeding, bathroom, sleeping routines) and told us we would get regular updates. Just as promised we got messages, photos and videos of Luna and her walks and meeting all the animals on the farm. When we collected her, it was clear that she had been loved and cared for the entire time we were away, and Luna would have been happy to stay. We won’t use another sitting service again, and would recommend Sabrina in a heartbeat. Thank you Sabrina”


“My doggos were taken such great care of during their stay! Highly recommended and will absolutely ask Patti and her husband to take care of my dogs again in the future.”

“Sharon and her husband took great care of Cooper while we were away. Their house and yard are well equipped for the task, and they had several friends for Cooper to play with! We received frequent photo updates from them, and Cooper was having fun in all of them. They took him on walks and ensured he got plenty of exercise. I would highly recommend Sharon for anyone looking for a good ‘Home away from home’ for their pup!”

“Pranavi provided great care for our dog. Pranavi sent multiple photos and videos each day of our dog’s stay. She is extremely responsive, communicative and flexible.”

“Sara was amazing with Max. She walked him, let him play all over big yards. I can tell Max had a fabulous time. The most important thing I value about Sara is that she was so accommodating. My flight was delayed due to an emergency landing, but she still did not charge me extra and had Max and his stuff ready for pick up at pretty late.”

“Michele was amazing with Lira. We were sent amazing pictures of Lira being spoiled and loved on. The communication between us was spot on and everything was amazing. I definitely recommend Michele... She's amazing!”

“Walee was awesome!! She sent me pictures everyday and she cared for my pet as if it were her own. She took him to the river and on long walks everyday so he was good and tired! I will forever use walee when I go out of town!”

“We usually board our dogs at a kennel, but our current dog has kennel stress and that was not an option for us this time. A friend suggested the Rover app to find somebody who would watch our dog in their home. This led us to Sara. We can not say enough good things about Sara. She was awesome to work with, very personable, and always responded to our texts in a timely fashion. But more importantly, our dog loved it at her home. She sent us daily videos and photos of our dog playing and having fun with the other dogs being boarded. It was very reassuring to get these daily photos and know our dog was well cared for and enjoying herself. Sara has a large fenced area for the dogs to run in, but she also welcomes them into her home and on her furniture (sign of a true dog lover!). Sara was also very accommodating when our dog needed a special diet for a few days. This was such a positive experience all around. We will never take our dog to a kennel again. Thank you Sara- you are the best!”

“Amber was so great with our dog! Lots of updates and photos and it seemed like our girl might not want to come home after having so much fun at Amber's! Can't say enough good things!”

“We left our dog for the first time, and it couldn’t have gone any smoother. Jen was very responsive, and exuded a genuine comfort around dogs. We weren’t worried at all throughout our trip. Thank you again, Jen!”

“Sylvia took great care of our two dogs! They came home happy as ever. She sent pictures, which we love to see. Our dogs are usually timid, but they warmed up to Sylvia right away! We will definitely rebook when we need to in the future.”

About: My attentiveness with dogs who need a little extra care. I've looked after a senior dog, learning to adjust to a slower pace and keep a close eye on her comfort and needs. I've also cared for a reactive dog, so I'm comfortable reading body language, managing triggers, and creating a calm, low-stress environment. As a stay-at-home dog mom, I'm home throughout the day to give your pup steady attention, and I treat every dog like one of my own. My mornings start around 8am with a 20 minute walk, followed by treats when we get home. I serve breakfast around 11am and offer treats a couple more times during the day. I usually let the dogs out in the backyard for 5–10 minutes once or twice between the morning and evening walks. In the late afternoon, around 4–5pm, I take the dogs to the dog park, or if it's too hot, we wait until 6–7pm for a 20–25 minute walk instead. Before bed, I let them out in my backyard one last time. Your pup will get steady attention, exercise, and lots of love all day long. My backyard is fully fenced and secure, so dogs can enjoy outdoor time safely. I have two friendly dogs of my own who make great company for visiting pups. At mealtimes I separate the dogs into different corners so each one can focus on their own food without stress. During the day I let them out in the backyard for 5–10 minutes at a time, and before bed I always go outside with them to supervise and make sure everyone is safe and settled. Your fur baby will be in a calm, secure, and attentive environment.
About: Austin loves hanging out with and caring for dogs. My Dogs House was created to help small and medium sized dogs have a safe and fun location to stay while their owners are busy or away. Reservations are limited as we only take a small number of well behaved dogs on a daily basis. My Dogs House is open everyday. Although reservations are limited we aim to be available at your convenience! A secondary staff member is available to assist on days that are busy or there are scheduling conflicts for Austin so the dogs are never left unattended. Inside kennels are available if needed or preferred. Yard is completely fenced. Austin provides daily updates, photos, and livestream video upon request to insure clients that their animal is getting the best care and attention.
“Traniece was absolutely amazing with our pup! She took such loving care of Suki and made sure we were always updated with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating when our flight was delayed, allowing us to drop Suki off later than planned without any issue. This was truly one of our best experiences on Rover. Suki came home happy and relaxed. We would 100% book with Traniece again next time we’re in the area! Highly recommend🤍”


“Alyssa has had Dexter over a few times and every time he comes home, he tells me about all the fun times they had. Alyssa is exceptionally accommodating and attentive. Thanks for taking great care of Dexter and I know he looks forward to seeing Stella and Alyssa's family again.”

About: Hi! I'm Nisha. I am a stay at home mom with a never ending passion for dogs! I have a small Toy Cavapoo named Luna who is EXTREMELY friendly and loves to play, but is also crate-trained and a very well behaved pup! In our house, I treat my pup like my baby and part of the family, and I'm more than willing to make sure your fur baby gets the same love and attention they deserve! ❤️ If you don't want your dogs to be pampered and the center of attention in our household, you've come to the wrong place :) I am a homemaker, meaning that my schedule is very flexible and I am always available to give your fur babies the love, care, and attention they need 24/7. I offer doggy daycare and pet boarding. I will work around YOUR pup's schedule to ensure that the daily routine they are used to goes undisturbed. I have a spacious, dog-proof home in a very safe neighborhood, with a fully fenced backyard that has enough space for your dogs to play and exercise freely. I am available to let them outside as frequently as needed, or they can use our doggy door if preferred. Our neighborhood is very safe and I can take them out on short walks as needed to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air! I will go above and beyond to make sure that YOUR dog is always supervised and in very safe hands here while you are away, and I will treat them as if they were my own.
“Nikole was wonderful with our crazy 9 month old puppy, Lyla! Lyla had the time of her life on the ranch, and Nikole kept us updated with daily pictures. We had been worried about being gone for 2 weeks, but upon meeting Nikole we had complete peace of mind knowing that Lyla would be in such experienced and caring hands. We would love to bring Lyla back to Nikole's again. Thanks again, Nikole, and we're so sorry that this review is so long overdue!”

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
92% of sitters in Scottsville 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 Scottsville 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 Scottsville.
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 Scottsville. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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 Scottsville 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.
