“Silvy felt right at home with Nicole and her family. We felt very comfortable leaving her in her care. She updated us and was quick with communication. Wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. Thanks again, Nicole !”


“We had such a great experience with Constanza! She took the time to meet our dogs beforehand, which immediately made us feel comfortable leaving them in her care. Throughout their stay, she was incredibly attentive and sent us lots of updates and pictures, which we really appreciated. One of our dogs even had a little accident on her carpet, and she was so understanding about it. We never felt worried about them while we were away and could tell they were being well cared for. She was also great about making sure our dogs were comfortable around her own dog, and everything went smoothly. She’s very caring, communicative, and attentive, and we feel so much better knowing they’ll be staying with her again next week. Highly recommend!”

“We've used Becky before and just like the other times, Gambit loved his stay! Becky and her dog Shadow make Gambit so calm when he stresses out--and Shadow tires him out to a good night sleep, it's seriously so reassuring! Gambits a Doberman with high energy, and usually never tires out--but I know with Becky, he comes home completely pooped. Becky provides daily updates on how your pooch is doing during his or her stay. Definitely love using Becky as a sitter! ”

“To be honest I was nervous leaving my Lovie with a stranger but the way Samuel presented himself from start to finish was like dropping Lovie off to a family member for the night..as long as Samuel is providing his services I will never leave Lovie with someone else!! Lovie and myself THANK U VERY MUCH!!”

“Tina is amazing and her place is wonderful. Jimi had a great time and I would totally recommend her services! Jimi was well loved and tended too. Thank you so much for treating my baby like your own(:”

“Casey was great! We had a meet and greet before the dog boarding and it went well. She asked a lot of questions and I knew Chico was in good hands. Throughout the week she sent me pictures and videos of my dog and was very communicative to how he was adjusting.”

“Bob was friendly, direct, and quick to respond. I believe that my old girl was in good hands with him. It was like a little vacation for her and I know she had a great time there.”

“Our first time using rover because we have been pretty skeptical of it but needed a last minute arrangement and we got lucky!! Marissa was great!! Our dog benny had a blast and felt right at home with her. She communicated well and sent all the pictures! We’ll definitely book with her in the future!”


“Christine was amazing with our sweet Cocu. I’m so fortunate for Christine’s quick response and flexibility with our last minute booking. Cocu, who is usually very timid, warmed up quickly to Christine and we immediately felt a sense of relief. Photos and updates were received, and Christine even kept Cocu in an area of her home away from other dogs or young children where she might be more comfortable. Thank you SO much Christine! Definitely would book again!”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the depth of my hands-on experience with animals in both volunteer and home settings. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, where I gained experience caring for animals with different personalities, backgrounds, and needs. At home, I’ve also cared for five pets, so I understand the consistency, patience, attentiveness, and responsibility that come with managing multiple animals at once. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s individual routine and temperament while making sure they feel safe, cared for, and given plenty of attention. I am currently working part-time in a remote position, which provides me with a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate ample time and attention to caring for pets. I provide attentive, reliable, and personalized care based on each pet’s individual needs and routine. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular walks and potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of attention. I carefully follow feeding schedules, household instructions, and any specific care preferences provided by the owner. I also prioritize maintaining a clean, comfortable, and safe environment so pets can feel secure while their owners are away.
About: I have had dogs throughout my entire life and I have dog sat for friends and family several times. I love dogs and love caring for them. I am available for dog sitting during the day and overnight boarding Monday- Friday and weekends. I am able to be home all the time I have a fenced yard with grass, I have a large playpen available to use if needed and keep them in one area of the house
“Angela is a lifesaver! My flight was delayed so I was not able to get my dog as booked, but Angela kept her longer for me. Needless to say, this was tremendously helpful!!”

About: I have had dogs in my household for over 20 years. I currently have two puppies, ages 1 and 2 years old. They are alot of fun and very high energy! I would love to care for your dog, giving them care and affection and plenty of attention while you are away. I can provide any medications or special care, if needed. I work full time as an occupational therapist and am free on Friday evenings, Saturdays, and Sundays. I like to sit dogs in my free time and would love to help you out.

About: Our family is slightly dog obsesssed :) We have a large backyard and home that is a dog’s dream. We work from home and adore puppy snuggles and play. We live on a quiet street in a great part of town. We treat all dogs like they are our own. We have experience in puppy training, elder dog care, and injured dogs care. Our children have been raised around all kinds of dogs and are respectful, cautious, and patient. Your baby will be loved and cared for, walked regularly, and hopefully returned nice and worn out from all the play :) Most activities we do as a family are usually dog friendly because we just can’t handle leaving our pups behind! We currently work from home and NEVER leave our pups for more than just few hours (one of ours is afraid of the dark). We are an active family so walks and play are a must. We have a secure fenced yard for lots of roaming around. We can crate dogs who feel more safe/secure in that environment, but we prefer they have the run of the house if they wish. We recognize a new environment can be overwhelming for your pup so we will do everything to reduce that anxiety for your baby :)
About: I’ve grown up taking care of dogs and animals. I will care for and nurture your dog as if they were my own! My goal is to make your pup as happy as pawsible, which includes walks, treats, lots of love and attention. I’m currently working part-time, normally one day a week, which means I will be able to spend lots of time caring for your pet! I have an open schedule and will do everything I can to be there for you and your fur baby! I care for pets in my home and will care for your pet as if they were my child. I believe dogs are a gift to us, and should be given a whole lot of love and attention.

94% of sitters in Shaver Lake 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 Shaver Lake 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 Shaver Lake.

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.
