“Camille took the best care of our little girl. She followed all of our instructions and was a great communicator with photos and was responsive to our check-ins. We will definitely ask for her services again. Thank you, Camille!”

“My yuki came back so happy and full of energy. They sent me constant updates and photos during her stay. Seemed like she really enjoyed her time there”

“Chan was amazing with our Ella! She is a unique dog, and Chan was able to tune into her needs. He sent so many updates to let us know how she was doing. He also did activities for her specific needs. A wonderful experience all around! Can’t wait to book again.”

“Title: Outstanding Care for Our Beloved Spike From the very first meeting, it was clear that Stephen and his partner, the dog sitters, were something special. Our 16 months old Spike took to them instantly. Throughout his stay, I was reassured with regular pictures and updates that not only showed me just how comfortable he was, but also how much fun he was having. It's not often you come across sitters who genuinely treat your pet as their own, but this is exactly what they did. Their thoughtful service exceeded all my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend them to any pet parent out there seeking peace of mind while away from their furry friend. Spike is already looking forward to his next visit!”


“Hershey had a wonderful time staying with Nayira and her family! We were updated daily with her well being and all the pics showed all smiles. Would reach out again for future sitting needs as I am happy with the care, communication, and enrichment our Hershey received during our time away.”

“Heaven was such a friendly and openly caring sitter since the first booking exchange. She was willing to accommodate my little boy last minute and was very attentive, communicative and caring of Charly since the initial booking process, to the stay to the very last second of pick up. Your fur babies will be in trusting-caring hands with Heaven”

About: One delightful benefit of being single and living alone is I’ve ended up being the person in my friends group who gets to dog sit for all my friends whenever they go out of town. I studied Ecology at University and the love and respect of all animals is very much ingrained in me. I work from home, so to have a justified incentive to leave my desk and go for a walk would be gratefully appreciated. I live in the foothills of Sherman Oaks which makes for easy, safe walks in a very dog friendly neighborhood. I’m also more than happy to hop in the car and take dogs to the park. I’m completely flexible to the desires and recommendations of the owner. I care for dogs as if they were my own. Lots of interaction, affection, a continual supply of fresh water and hopefully a buddy to watch the Premier League with me on the weekend!

“Nicole and Michael are so thoughtful and caring. It's never easy to leave your dog but they provide a loving and safe home while you're away. I know I found Scooter's home away from home!”
“Renata and her family were great with our pup. This was the first we've used a service like this and leaving our pup for this long, so I had some anxiety about it. We were gone for 5 days and Renata gave me updates and pictures daily, which definitely put our minds at ease. We got a great vibe from her from the start and you can tell she really cares about pups and providing the best care for them, so we knew ours was in great hands. We'll definitely be using her again! Thanks again Renata!”

“This was rockets third time staying with Erin and her communication continued to be excellent. This allowed us to relax while on vacation knowing our pup was well cared for while receiving daily photos and updates. Rocket did experience some anxious behavior and Erin was able to relay this and provide him the support he needed. It was out of normal for him but we felt confident that Erin would take care of our baby. We have and would recommend booking with Erin.”

“Barbara is a lifesaver! I had a last minute booking and she accommodated. She was very caring for my dog while he had an illness. She updated me everyday about Diego’s condition, I knew he was in good hands. She’s was very attentive with Diego’s schedule. Diego had a good time with her. Thank you Barbara for taking care of my loved one.”
About: We love our furry guests. They are not in their normal home, so they gets extra pets and attention while they are away from home. We want to make them feel welcome. I work from home frequently, which means your pup won't be left alone for long! They'll get plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day, plus daily walks to keep them active and happy. We've created a safe and comfortable space where dogs can truly relax. Our fully fenced backyard and dog door mean your pup has free access to the indoors and outdoors all day long. The lawn is always available for bathroom breaks whenever they need it. Our resident dog, Millie, is a small and friendly girl who loves welcoming guests!
“Mary is our new go to Rover in LA! My pup spent a week with her and Molly (her adorable 6 year old pup) and had the best time! I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my pup was cared for and loved. Mary has an amazing back yard perfect for our pups to play in and run around. Mary was very thorough in taking instructions on feeding, walking, and care schedules and sent pictures and videos throughout. If you’re looking for a great home for your dog while you’re away or just a daycare place for your dog to run around, Mary (and Molly) are it!! Would give 10 stars if I could!”

“This is the BEST dog sitter I have EVER had. I had to go out of town last minute and Keely was able to help take care of my puppy for the holiday week. I got constant, in depth updates and TONS of photos / videos. She had so many toys for her to play with, tons of play area, a big yard, and a furry friend to hangout with! I will use Keely for all of my dog sitting needs in LA. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Daisy!”

“Annabelle and Ben were outstanding! They communicated clearly throughout the process - meet and greet, drop off, and pick up. During boarding we got lots of photos and updates...sooooo many walks for our girl Mabel. Got along great with their dog and had a blast! They were all wonderful!”


“I always feel so good knowing that Jen is giving Piper lots of love and attention when we have to be away for a weekend. She communicates about what is going on, sends questions if needed and sends lots of pictures so that we know our girl is happy and smiling! We trust Jen and that is so important. Thank you as always!!!”

“Lenny is amazing, he is the dog whisperer. My dog is always excited to see him and I’m very happy on how with his service. He constantly sends photos and videos so I’m always at ease. Can’t recommend enough”

James took good care of my girl, spent me photos every day saying “Cassie was good today “. Cassie seemed very comfortable with James who made sure she was safe and that her care was provided as I requested, including a visit to a dog park that matched her needs. James also offered to drop Cassie off at my home if it would be easier as I was returning from the airport. I recommend using James to care for your canine friend.

Kate and Aaron are the most attentive and responsible dog sitters I’ve ever experienced. They needed to administrate medication every 4 hours and I got a list of questions to clarify my instructions and a photo report every time it has been done. On top of that my dog came back happy and tired from all the play time he got there. Couldn’t be happier .. and I’d definitely recommend them as your second home for your pet while you are away. 10 ⭐️

Craig and Naomi were fantastic sitters for our dog, Pikachu! They took great care of her, kept up with regular walks, and sent great photo updates that gave us total peace of mind. They were also incredibly understanding when our flight got canceled and we needed an extension. Highly recommend them—Pikachu can't wait to stay again!

I had the most wonderful experience with Lenny. He has a great attitude and even better communication. My young dog had so much fun and I had constant photo updates while I was gone for three days on a work trip. He was so happy and healthy when I picked him up. I would absolutely use Lenny again.

Mandie was so good with Midnight. She sent me regular picture and video updates during his stay and followed my instructions well. She was also very flexible and agreed to drop midnight off when I returned after an exhausting travel experience. I really appreciated her availability, communication, and willingness to do what I needed. Highly recommend!

Erika and Ken are so amazing - I feel so comfortable leaving Ellie with them. It’s so clear how much they love Ellie and how much Ellie loves them!! They play with her for hours and she snuggles up with them at night for bedtime. I would excitedly book another stay for Ellie with Erika and Ken!

Effie and family took great care of my dog Chopper. Was worried that he was gonna be anxious leaving him as my dog has separation anxiety but my dog enjoyed his time at their home under their care. I greatly appreciated how she kept me updated of how my dog was the whole time I was gone. I felt so relieved to see photos of him so happy while I was out and about.

Chan and his wife were wonderful caretakers for my little girl. As a senior dog she needs lots of regular medications, which they were great with administering. I received multiple photos every day to assure me that she was doing well, getting slow walks in the park as she required, and feeling pretty happy. They have a little private yard with astroturf and she enjoyed that, as well as the park right across the street. They reached out with questions whenever they weren’t sure about something, and I am very happy with their great care and thoughtfulness. I will use them again!

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.
94% of sitters in Sherman Oaks 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 Sherman Oaks 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 Sherman Oaks.
<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 Sherman Oaks 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.
