“Carrie is the best! She always treats my pup like her own and makes him feel right at home. I appreciate her daily comments and photos. She is my #1 go to when I need a Rover sitter.”

“Irina was great with my Puppy Dodger. She communicated very well with me. Gave me updates and pictures. I could tell Dodger felt loved in her care. I’m sure he can’t wait to come back.”

“Florene was a wonderful sitter for Nadia.she truly loves her fur babies.. and since we’ve never left Nadia with anyone before,,we could tell that she was having a great time by seeing the pictures that were sent to us..we will definitely bring her back..”

“Anais was great and communicated well. She took care of Brownie and he seemed very happy when we picked him up. Will recommend her to everyone and look forward to booking with her again in the future.”

“We had such a great experience with Zhuoya! They took such wonderful care of our dog and treated her with so much kindness and attention. We really appreciated all of the updates, pictures, and photos throughout her stay. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which made everything so easy for us. Most importantly, our dog had such a great time and came home happy! It was clear she felt comfortable and loved while she was there. We would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾❤️”

“Catherine and Ernie are a sweet couple that love fur friends. They properly treated our girl when she got a little cut on her tail, sent us pictures every day, and are great communicators! Our Hazel came home tired and happy.”

“Annie and her family were so welcoming to my puppy. He can be a handful but played great with her dog too. Annie provided so much great communication and updates throughout the day. I felt so comfortable knowing he was taken care of. I’m sure he can’t wait for another visit soon.”

“Naiomie took great care of our little pup! It was his first time staying away from home and we couldn’t be more comfortable leaving him in her care. She constantly was sending updates with photos/videos and would always ask questions if she was unsure of any small detail. She was very prepared and we could tell that she was looking after him like he was a part of the family. We will definitely be booking with Naiomie again in the future!”

“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Blaze! From the moment I dropped off my dog, I knew she was in loving, capable hands. She treated my pup like family, going above and beyond to ensure she was not only cared for, but pampered — like a true spa treatment! What really stood out was her attentiveness and care. She helped identify the root cause of a skin irritation my dog had been struggling with, which no one else had caught. Thanks to her insight and care, my dog came home not only happy and relaxed but also with a shiny, clean coat and noticeably healthier skin. She sent me daily photos and updates, which truly gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was such a relief knowing my dog was safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m beyond grateful we found Blaze!”

“Thank you Tammy for watching our pet on a very short notice. It was great to see Leo had company of pet named Buster. They seemed to have some great time. Tammy shared pictures of our pet and very responsive when needed. Thanks you for everything you do for pet care.”

“I was so happy with the care Hong provided for Zane. They went above and beyond with walks each day, and Zane seemed to really enjoy his time with them, and roaming in her spacious backyard. Hong was absolutely great at sending updates and photos while we were away, which really put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend Hong and will definitely book with her again. Thank you Hong, I know Zane will be looking forward to more visits!”

“Kirsten was an amazing sitter. She paid great attention to our care instructions. Cooper had fun with her kids who were gentle, loving, and respectful. Cooper seemed very happy during and after his stay. Ca’t wait to be back.”

“We boarded our 9 month old pup for the first time with Denise. She is absolutely amazing! We were super nervous leaving her and wanted to try a more personal boarding experience. Denise did not disappoint. She sent frequent pics & videos of our girl. We could tell she was having a ball & getting so much love & attention from Denise & her family. We will definitely be using her for all of our future boarding needs!”

“We had a wonderful experience! Rekha took great care of our dog, Sage, for three days and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She was kind, attentive, and kept us updated with messages, videos and photos, which we really appreciated. Sage came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It was clear he received lots of love and attention during his stay. We are so grateful for her excellent care and would absolutely trust her with Sage again. Highly recommend!”

“Our pups had a great stay with Qiana. Lots of photos and videos, great communication, and they even went home with a goodie bag! We would definitely book again and recommend to friends 🐾”


“Kenia was awesome with Benito and a great communication she would answer all of my questions and responses a few times my daughter would message to check up on him and she would quickly respond with updates. I was worried how my dog would act being his first time away but Kenia made me feel more at ease when leaving him. Kenia sent updates photos and videos he looked so happy and well taken care off. We were worried he wouldn't want to come home. Im glad a i made the right choice and if I ever have to leave Benito I would definitely have Kenia watch him again. If there were more stars she deserves them .. Thank you again Kenia.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sheldon
Carrie was the absolute perfect boarding sitter for my two dogs! She kept me updated with photos and shared all the fun activities my fur babies were up to. I loved her personality and the positivity she brought to their care. We will definitely be booking with her again. #dogs #petsitter #gratitude 🐾🐶✨

Anessa was so great with Holly. She sent updates and photos and always responded when I messaged to check on my baby. Holly was nervous being in a new place and didn't want to eat, but Anessa went out of her way to try different things and I could tell how much she cared. Will definitely book again.

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 Sheldon 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 Sheldon.
<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 Sheldon 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.
