About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my whole life. Animals have always been a big part of my world, and I feel a very deep and natural connection with them. I have a soft spot for pets who need extra love and patience, including blind dogs, and I always make sure they feel safe, understood, and at peace. I also offer gentle Reiki for animals if they need extra calm, balance, or emotional support. Because I work online, I can spend the whole day with your pet—keeping them company, giving them lots of love, and making sure they always feel safe and cared for. I truly love what I do and treat every animal as if they were my own, with kindness, calm energy, and lots of affection. I work online, which allows me to spend the whole day caring for your pet. Your furry friend will have constant companionship, attention, and supervision throughout the day, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. Whether at my home or yours, I make sure their space is comfortable, secure, and stress-free. I supervise pets at all times, provide gentle guidance, and respect their individual needs and personalities. Your furry friend will always feel loved, safe, and cared for while you’re away.
“Brittany is an outstanding dig sitter for anyone. Along with being very responsible and professional, she has a great personality and is considerate of the needs of pet owners. Her dog Rio got along very well with my dog Kenzo and kept him entertained all day. 5 stars for sure; I hope to be rebooking with Brittany soon!”


“Thank you for taking excellent care of Winnie while I attended a wedding! She clearly enjoyed her time with you and your son. I love that you prioritized her comfort on a very hot day, let her hang out on your bed, and accepted my absurd amount of dog supplies that I handed you at drop-off. I appreciate that after it became clear your dog was a bit much for her (un-neutered and a little too boy-ish), you kept them separate. Would re-book if I came back to the area and needed help in the future!”

“Ashley was great with our Calvin! She offered to pick him up each night and drop him off and he got to play with her fur babies on their nice property. She was very easy to communicate with and answered quickly. He definitely enjoyed his time there.”

“All went smooth. David, and his young kids, were very nice to my dogs. It was sweet to see the kids engaging so calmly with my small terriers. I got the dogs back tired and thirsty (they went for a good walk before pick up). I would have David (and his family) watch my dogs again.”

About: Since I was a just a kid I have loved all kinds of dogs, I know all the great dog parks in the area to play fetch or just let them run free (in the gated park of coarse) and even enjoy taking them on hikes threw out the city or to the beach on a sunny day! We can play fetch or tug o war, lay inside and hangout or go outside and enjoy the sun. When provided I will feed your pet and give them water when needed; and I will even give your pet treats or rewards for good behavior or fun tricks they may know. I can also provide possible grooming upon request and for an extra fee depending on grooming request and dog size and age.

About: As a dedicated and responsible animal lover, I understand how important it is to find the right person to care for your furry family members. I share custody of a wonderful 5-year-old, and I rent a room in my home to a tenant who has a 12-year-old blind and deaf chihuahua and a sweet, friendly cat who stays out of the way. This diverse pet experience ensures I’m well-equipped to handle a variety of pet needs. I've been a mom to dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes, from a teeny tiny 4lb chihuahua to a 140lb mastiff (who was hilariously scared of the chihuahua!). My heart is big, and I’m a sucker for all creatures. I volunteer at the animal shelter as often as possible, and I foster underage puppies and kittens for the local agency Spark Rescue until they are ready for adoption. With a flexible work schedule, I can easily accommodate your needs. I’m physically fit and active, enjoying hiking and beach outings, but I’m just as happy to chill if that’s what Fido or Fluffy prefers. As a homeowner, I can ensure a stable and safe environment for your pets. I am comfortable with special dietary needs and have experience with litters of puppies and elderly dog care. I’m not afraid to get dirty and have administered insulin shots to a diabetic cat, so I’m not squeamish about medical needs either. I promise to love your fur baby as much as you do! Currently, I work from home part-time, offering me full flexibility and availability to meet your needs with a little notice. I’m all about pets and snuggles, and I will always ensure that any special needs or requests you have are taken care of to the best of my ability! I work from home part-time, with my little one in school and shared custody, allowing me the flexibility to accommodate your pet's needs with a little notice. Whether it's an active day of play or a cozy snuggle session, I'm here to provide loving care for your furry friend. Safety, trust, and a nurturing environment are my top priorities. In my home, pets enjoy a secure, loving space with constant supervision and attention. At your home, I maintain your pet's routine, ensuring comfort and consistency. I am experienced with special dietary needs, medical care, and providing a safe, engaging environment tailored to each pet's needs.
About: Pets have always been in my household since I was a child. Growing up, my best friend & I would hang out on his farm on the weekends where I truly connected with caring for pets. My personal activities of meditating and connecting with nature through physical activity help me connect with animals. Pet owners constantly appraise me for seeing there pet friends be calm & tranquil under my care. Leading with your heart makes pet care not a job but a loving experience for the little ones when your away from home. Time management is my strong skill with my administrative experience and can incorporate pet care during my downtimes. Also flexible if a pet has a certain schedule/ routine. Don't believe I can have pets in my household but will be checking in with the app yo disable this service to allow pets in my household.
About: Mature and experienced. I love animals and will take care of your pet as if they are my own. I will support whatever you and your pet need to make our time together comfortable and safe. Great communication. I will update you as often as you like. I work from home and can make my schedule fit your pet's needs. I enjoy frequent breaks and walks, both short and long. Your pet will not be alone for more than four hours in one day. Your pet can enjoy the great outdoors in my fenced in yard (approximately 15x15 feet, as well as all of the spaces of my 3 bedroom townhome.
“Jake is a wonderful dogsitter and Jett is a great buddy for my dog, Gaia. Gaia can be unpredictable with new dogs, and Jake was very accommodating as we got the two dogs acquainted. Now Gaia loves going to play with Jett. And Jake makes it easy - he’s conscientious, super responsive, and easy to work with. Highly recommend!”

About: I believe that all pets should experience living life and doing fun activities that we all do! I grew up with pets my whole life, having 2 dogs and 2 cats. What inspired me to begin my journey on this app is from when I volunteered at my local shelter to foster huskies, ranging from a day trip to week long care. I like to plan fun activities in advance with the pets to do throughout the day/weeks, which can be a fun stroll to the beach to collect seashells, going to downtown, and meeting new people at events (such as the farmers markets, makers markets, and more)! I make sure they are under the best possible care while still having fun :) I’m a current student, so I would appreciate if services are scheduled in advance. At the same time, I’m overall pretty flexible and tailors to clients needs. This can be scheduling, pricing, and instructions! I’m pretty flexible! Something as easy as dog walking or drop-ins I can basically do any time, but dog/ cat sitting needs a bit more preparation. Being a student, sometimes things can come up last minute. When given instructions, I am pretty on top of it. Any requests I would be more than happy to accommodate. No need to be afraid to ask questions! I listen to instructions well.

About: Hello Families! I love all animals and ready to help care for yours while you're away! I grew up on a farm with my parents, and ever since I can remember, we've always had animals around. They ran a non-profit animal rescue for many years, and this taught me much about the responsibilities of caring for an animal. I was also able to learn about different breeds and their temperaments. Although they are nice to play with, we were also taught that with the pleasurable part, also comes the dirty work. I've cleaned much animal poop in my life! My sister and I have ridden horses since we were young, we've volunteered at different animal shelters, and we have brought injured animals into our home to take care of them. I recently graduated and received my Bachelor's degree. I'm continuing my education, which makes me available to go to your home during weekday evenings or weekends (all day). I also offer boarding at my home (24/7), which is safe and secure. I have several yards for your pet(s) to play and exercise. I can feed, administer medication if needed, exercise, clean litter-boxes, and give your pet(s) the love and attention they deserve! I understand your pet(s) have become part of your family, and I will take care of them as if they were my own! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you, Mia
“Amber was great! In the 12 hours my golden retriever was with her, they went on multiple walks and she was exhausted by the time we got home (that’s a good thing). They were even walking when I arrived to pick her up! Super sweet, lots of photos that we loved seeing. I highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of genuine experience with dogs at every stage of life. I raised my two dogs from puppyhood all the way through their senior years, which means I’m comfortable with the energy and needs of young pups as well as the patience and extra care that older dogs require. I also grew up with a dog and have always shared a natural bond with animals. On top of that, I have experience fostering dogs from a shelter, so I know how to help pets feel safe and settled in a new environment. This isn’t just a side gig for me, caring for animals is something I’ve always done and truly love. As a college student working part time, my schedule is flexible enough to give your pet the time and attention they deserve! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, meaning your furry friend won’t just be an afterthought between a packed schedule. I have plenty of availability throughout the day to ensure your pet is getting regular walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be well looked after and never left alone for long stretches! I have a fully fenced yard, so your pet has plenty of safe space to run around and explore! I’m happy to adapt to whatever routine and environment your pet is most comfortable with, whether that’s roaming freely around the home, spending time in a crate, or a mix of both. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my priority, so just let me know what works best for them and I’ll make sure to keep things consistent with what they’re used to at home!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Solvang commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 231 sitters in Solvang, 88% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
