“Excellent, is all I can say. This is the perfect place for my Jessica to stay and Rachel did a great job of taking care of he and making sure she was happy providing plenty of toys for her to play with and giving her the attention she always wants. Anytime I need to board her in the future it will always be with Rachel.”
“They were amazing! Guilligan was so well taken care of and comfortable with them. I hate to admit it, but I don’t think he noticed he wasn’t in his own home with us. We will definitely ask them to take care of Guilligan again.”
“I loved that when we went to the meet-and-greet, Grace went straight to the floor to caress Arena. From the beginning, she was warm and professional. She has a lovely home, and she made us feel welcome. I would not hesitate to bring my puppy back to her, and I hope she is available next time we need boarding services for our sweet Arena.”

We absolutely recommend Kaitlyn to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Pasadena
We couldn't have asked for better caregivers for our two dogs! They are kind, patient, and considerate. You can tell that they really do love pets! Our boys got spoiled with toys and lots of affection. We got updates throughout the day on how the dogs were doing and how much they were enjoying their time. That helped us enjoy our vacation knowing that our boys were in good hands. Also, the backyard is amazing, lots of room to run and areas to explore. Angela and Kenny were flexible with me and my schedule. They made the whole experience stress-free. I'm very grateful for that!
Pam is WONDERFUL! We have a 8 month old puppy and have had Pam watch her every time. She truly cares about the dogs in her care and it gives us so much peace of mind when we are away. Not only does she take them for walks, she practices training with her, takes her on adventures to the beach and to the park, and is always sending pictures and videos. She truly is the best. It can always feel unsettling leaving your pet with someone but with Pam, we know she’s in the best hands. 10/5 stars if I could!
Brittany was terrific. We are very grateful that she was available and amenable to care for our pug Bruno at the very last minute due to a sudden change of plans as we were leaving town. Brittany immediately bonded with Bruno and it was clear that he was enjoying himself. We couldn’t be happier with our experience.
We had a wonderful experience with Jackie! She was caring, reliable, and incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay. We especially appreciated how many updates and photos she sent each day, which gave us peace of mind and made it easy to see that our pup was in great hands. It was clear she genuinely cared, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive sitter!
We're so grateful to have found Jennifer! She has a great space for the puppies and she lets our Honey snuggle with her on couches and beds, which makes her feel right at home. Honey always looks like she's having a great time in the pictures, and she comes home happy and tuckered out.
We couldn’t be happier with the wonderful care Liz provided for our sweet fur baby, Pepper! From start to finish, Liz was incredibly friendly, kind, and attentive. Her communication was fantastic, and we loved receiving regular updates and adorable pictures throughout Pepper’s stay. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Pepper was in such loving and capable hands while we were away. We’re so grateful to have found Liz and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. Pepper gives Liz two paws up! 🐾❤️
Joli was amazing with Brann. She contacted me every day on how he was and what he had been doing that day. She sent great pictures and let me know how much she and her family enjoyed his company. There was never any doubt in my mind that Brann was in safe and caring hands, even with his special needs. I will absolutely be contacting her again.
Briannon took great care of Jimin during his 5 nights stay. She is definitely the best you can get for dog care - communicative caring and just made everything super easy. I loved the daily updates and pictures she sent. As a bonus her dog is super friendly and it was nice knowing my dog had a good friend to hang out with
Michelle was awesome! She was very attentive to Slater, making sure he was comfortable, happy, and had everything he needed while we were away. I loved getting her daily updates and knowing our dog was in good hands. I would definitely recommend Michelle to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring to watch their pup!
Claire was amazing! She sent regular photo updates and detailed notes throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Kona was happy and relaxed I picked him up. I’m glad he had another dog to play with. I will definitely book with Claire again!

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
95% of sitters in South Pasadena 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 South Pasadena 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 South Pasadena.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Pasadena. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your South Pasadena 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 FL 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.
