“Mrs. Rochelle is simply amazing and has a beautiful family that helps her. She is very patient and kind. Our Taz can be a bit rambunctious but she said he did well. She sent photos while we were away on our trip. My grandpups were well taken care of. We will definitely use Mrs. Rochelle again. Thank you so much for caring for our fur babies.”
“Celia was very kind, understanding and helpful she accepted my last minute request. Great person and I felt extremely safe leaving my husky with her, she made sure to attend ALL my dogs needs. She made sure my dog was safe and loved for her stay! I absolutely recommend her to anyone needing someone to take care of their pet! 10/10 service and very trustworthy.”
“Angelo is an amazing guy! Took great care of my dogs while I was gone on an unexpected emergency trip. I’d recommend him to anyone needing help with getting their dogs watched any time. My pups were sad to leave his care for sure.”
“Chona was a fantastic sitter for our Frenchie, Coco. She communicated often with texts and photos, took Coco on walks and outings, and made sure she was comfortable and calm the whole stay. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog and would definitely book with Chona again.”

I would absolutely recommend Tyler to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!”
“Allison was amazing. I could tell my pup had a great time while I was away. Allison was attentive and sent me updates every day giving me peace of mind knowing my buddy was happy and being well taken care of. I will absolutely contact her again for my next trip.”
“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Ciara and her family! ❤️ They took such great care of our four-legged son, Bailey, while we were away. Knowing he was being loved and cared for made it so much easier for us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation without worrying about him. Ciara kept us updated every day on how Bailey was doing, and we absolutely loved receiving the pictures! It gave us so much peace of mind seeing his happy little face while we were away. 🐶❤️ Thank you, Ciara and family, for loving Bailey like he was your own. We are so grateful for the care, love, and attention you gave him. We highly recommend Ciara to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and loving dog sitter. Bailey definitely enjoyed his stay—and we think he may have been a little spoiled! 😊”
“Susan & Miguel did an amazing job taking care of my 5 mo old pup for the 8 days I was away. My pup was happy and had a great time playing with the other dogs and getting love from Susan. Susan kept me updated daily with videos and pictures on my pup’s progress. I’m super grateful I trusted my gut in choosing Susan and will definitely use her again for my future trips. Book them! Your pet will thank you :)”
“Bridget is amazing. She loves our Clyde like her own. This is the longest Clyde has been under Auntie B's care and we feel the utmost grateful we have someone to care for our dog while we take our little getaways.”
About: I worked at a veterinary hospital for a year, overseeing the boarding facility and assisting the vet techs with procedures. I also grew up training dogs with Guaranteed Dog training, I have worked with all sorts of dogs and understand and behavior very well. I have a great love for all sorts of animals and treat them as a family member with love and respect! If your pet is boarding, it could be either me (LORI) or my grandma (MARY) there for drop off or pick up my grandma is retired and at the house 24/7 she assist me in boarding and training. We both are professional dog trainers, and my grandma has been doing it for 35 years now! The only reason I might not be home is I work part-time as a pet bather at PetSmart in Manteca and I don’t have a set schedule. Rest assured the Pets are never left unsupervised! ❤️ I currently work part time and only work about 4 hours a Day! And about 3 days a week. I also have my grandmother home with me to help take your fur babies out to play and potty in the back yard! My grandmother has been a dog trainer for 35 years and is very advanced in her knowledge about dogs as well :) I have a 6 foot tall fenced yard with 2 large 7 feet tall chain link fences by 12 feet wide and 6 feet long for extra security for Houdini dogs! :) no pets are left outside unsupervised. They are kept on a leash to ensure safety.
“We recently hired Margerita to take care of our fur baby while we were away. We couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Margerita was professional, attentive, and genuinely caring towards our pet. She always updated us with pictures and videos whenever I asked her. It was very easy to communicate with her throughout the time she had our pet. It was really sweet of her to pack some treats in the bag when we picked him up. I can totally see that my pet was missing his two friends he made while living with her. I will definitely recommend her and will hire in future if needed.”
“Nathan and family were great! Very communicative and our dog seemed right at home! Which is huge because she has high anxiety but she loved it with Nathan and crew. Will definitely be rebooking soon.”
“Sherlock had a wonderful stay again with Kristine and family - so so happy when he gets a chance to stay, and we know he is in great hands especially when we are out of the country.”
“Deb took wonderful care of our Rosie! I was given updates with great pictures and know how well she was taken care of! Highly recommend and will use again when in the area! Thanks so much!”
“This was our first time ever leaving our fur baby with anyone overnight, and we were honestly very hesitant at first. We are so thankful we decided to trust Stephanie and her family! From the moment we met them, we instantly felt welcomed, relieved, and confident that our fur baby would be in great hands. Stephanie went above and beyond by sending daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our fur baby was loved and well cared for the entire time. I highly recommend her for boarding services and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Cheridyn and Gil were awesome! They were super responsive, sent lots of updates and photos, and let my dog roam around and make herself at home. It really put me at ease knowing my dog was happy and well taken care of. I'd definitely book with them again!”
“Alisha had such a fun time with my dog Maverick. She sent lots of pictures, made sure he got the exercise he needed and was so accommodating to his allergies. Definitely will be booking 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 Simms 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 Simms.
<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 Simms 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.
