“Cynthia was a wonderful sitter for my Esta girl. We had a meet & greet before hand. She was friendly & lovely. She was flexible with drop off and pick up times. She communicated & sent pictures during our trip. We will definitely rebook soon!”
“We arrived for a trip to Santa Cruz and found out our Roz was not allowed at the hotel due to her size. We started searching local pet hospitals, dog walkers, boarding facilities and the only place that could take her was all the way back in Santa Clara. As a last resort we checked Rover and Meghan came through for us. In the end Roz probably had as much fun as we did with her new friends during our weekend in Santa Cruz. Thanks Meghan!”
“I’m so glad we found Jenna! Our beloved English Mastiff rescue needs a lot of love and attention which is exactly what he got staying with Jenna and her family. We were updated everyday with how he was doing along with pictures throughout his stay. It gave us peace of mind while we were away. We’ll definitely be coming back :)”
“Susie was very informative, responsive and kind. She sent lots of pictures and updates which helped feeling comfortable with a new sitter for my grandpup. Milo was very well taken care of and we already have her booked for upcoming dates. I strongly recommend her to sit, walk or care for your pet.”
“We are so grateful for Yajaira's care of our little dog. Our dog is shy with new people but within just an hour or two Yajaira had already won her over, taken her for a walk and sent photos of our little dog relaxing in the house. We loved getting the cute photos and updates while we were away. Yajaira has excellent communication and it's no wonder why she has many 5-star reviews from pet parents. We'll gladly book with her again when we need a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Yajaira!”
“Mike & Patty are great!!! We left our dog Buzz for the first time with someone else, and they took fabulous care of him, and our dog is spoiled at home, and has his quirks. We got daily updates, and photos, I will definitely be asking them to take care of Buzz again in the future - thanks so much Patty & Mike!”
“Teresa was so kind and energetic. She sent us pictures of Otoro the whole time we were gone - he went to walks and hikes and played and came back tired (in the best way!) I will definitely be booking with Teresa again the next time we are looking for someone to hang out with Otoro!”
“Beth watched our Jack Russell and she was great! She was very communicative while we were away and sent lots of photos and updates. We felt very comfortable leaving our pup with her and will definitely use her again.”
About: I've had dogs for over 10 years and have taken care of dogs and cats with all sorts of needs/medical care such as diabetic, arthritic and eye-sight impaired animals. I trained both of my dogs in agility and behavior classes so I have experience with training and extended behaviors. I volunteer at the Santa Cruz Animal Shelter and have taken multiple classes on dog behavior and dog walking safety. I am currently a UC Santa Cruz student but my schedule is fairly flexible since I commute/live off campus. Currently I only have one class per day, Monday through Friday so I can be present to provide majority of the care with minimal outings. I always ask clients about their yard and preferences for their animals safety in the yard especially at night. Depending on their circumstances, I will scan the yard for any unusual activity and safety concerns. As well as always being in close proximity when the dog wants to go in the front/backyard.
“Hannah was amazing. She was able to accommodate us last minute for a holiday weekend. She sent us updates along with videos of Archer doing all his favorite activities. We know he was in great hands and will definitely call her for any future needs”
“Yu is wonderful! She is very communicative and professional. She has shown my dogs a lot of love and care. Yu always takes the dogs on lots of walks and adventures, which my dogs love! Will definitely keep booking her. :)”
“Kelsey was very communicative and shared pictures of our pets lounging with them and having fun. She was understanding about a few issues our pugs have and we wouldn't hesitate to leave our dogs with Kelsey again. Thanks so much Kelsey!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for about 8 years, whether it be neighbors, friends, or clients. I’ve done week long petsitting and simple day long care as well. I currently have 20 hours of dog walking logged at Santa Cruz animal shelter, working with dogs of all kinds. I am a full time student at UC Santa Cruz, but have a pretty flexible schedule! I mostly attend university in the morning and early afternoon on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I’m located in a safe neighborhood great for walks. My yard is unfenced, so I would supervise any pets that were to go outside, all depending on the owners comfort with this condition. My home is large, so there’s plenty of room to roam around.
“Marta took wonderful care of our dog while we were out of the country for one week. He experienced a health issue when we were away, and Marta handled it with careful attention. She worked hard to make sure our boy was comfortable and at ease. She administered medication with confidence and communicated clearly with us as to how he was doing each day. I am thankful that we found Marta and recommend her to anyone looking for a capable, kind, dog-loving caretaker.”
“Angelina was very responsive and updated us with many photos! Her pup Chowder & my Lolli became the best of friends and played non stop. We felt Lolli was in great hands & would highly recommend Angelina to anyone needing a sitter!”
“Marlene, Miguel, and their family were fantastic to work with! We boarded our pup last minute, over a holiday, and Marlene was super accommodating. This was our first time using Rover and Marlene made it easy. She was great about sending pictures and putting our minds at ease. Her own two dogs are very sweet and friendly—our guy had no issues being part of their pack. Highly recommend ☺️”
“We couldn't be happier with Natalia! Our energetic mini-goldendoodle, Rocky, had an absolutely fantastic week-long stay at her place. From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. Natalia's communication was outstanding – she made it incredibly easy to connect, and we especially appreciated the photo updates and sweet notes on how Rocky was enjoying his time. This allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip without a single worry. Her home is a doggy paradise: spotlessly clean, wonderfully spacious, and features a fantastic garden packed with toys that Rocky clearly adored. It's truly the best environment a pet could ask for. We had such a positive experience and will absolutely be rebooking Natalia for all our future dog-sitting needs!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Shangri La Estates
Susie did a great job welcoming my dog Suki at her home and making her feel at ease. She kept me posted about how things were going while I was away including photos. Suki enjoyed walks several times a day, meeting the neighbors and even rides on the SC Harbor water taxi! I recommend Susie to others looking for a pet-sitter for their dog.
We had a great experience with our sitter! They took excellent care of Willy and kept us updated throughout his stay with plenty of pictures and videos. It was clear that Willy was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. Communication was great, and we felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. We would definitely recommend them and would happily book with them again!
Teresa is an amazing dog sitter! Our senior dog was so well cared for while we were gone. We got lots of updates and pictures and I’m 100% sure our dog didn’t want to come home. Teresa went above and beyond, absolutely would recommend her to anyone. A million stars!
My regular sitter had to cancel last minute and I was lucky enough to meet Anastasia. She took excellent care of my dog. She sent the pictures and updates that dog owners love to get when they board their dogs. I feel like Anastasia takes extra special care of the animals she watches.
Britt took such great care of Bailey during his stay! He made sure Bailey got plenty of playtime, took him on some great walks, and, most importantly, gave him lots of love and cuddles while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Britt again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for boarding!
Jenna and her family did an excellent job caring for my dog for three days and two nights in their home. This was the first time using Jenna as a sitter and her care exceeded my expectations. My dog is a 1:1 dog and she is extremely anxious in new surroundings and situations. Because of Jenna’s expertise and the family’s love and skills in dog sitting, my dog settled in quickly and adopted her new family easily. I will use Jenna in the future when I need a dog sitter. Jenna’s communication is prompt. She sent me regular text updates and photos which kept me in the know and made me relax knowing that my dog had adjusted and was in capable loving hands. I chose Jenna as a result of reading her reviews. These reviews were on point! I highly recommend Jenna for your dog sitting needs.

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 Shangri La Estates 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 Shangri La Estates.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Shangri La Estates 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.
