“Krystle is very good with our fur babies and also with our hovering moms….My baby was with Krystle for a couple of days and I received pictures each day to let me know how he was doing. He was happy and exhausted when I picked him up and that was the best part. I would definitely recommend Krystle and her family, they love their dogs.”
“Frank and Nancy gave our dog excellent care! They were very responsive, professional, and kind. They sent regular picture/video updates and took our dog on frequent walks. Frank initiated a meet and greet beforehand to meet our dog and that made the drop-off for our dog’s 10 day boarding go so much smoother. We had a great experience with Frank and Nancy and we will be using them again!”
“We had such a great experience with Constanza! She took the time to meet our dogs beforehand, which immediately made us feel comfortable leaving them in her care. Throughout their stay, she was incredibly attentive and sent us lots of updates and pictures, which we really appreciated. One of our dogs even had a little accident on her carpet, and she was so understanding about it. We never felt worried about them while we were away and could tell they were being well cared for. She was also great about making sure our dogs were comfortable around her own dog, and everything went smoothly. She’s very caring, communicative, and attentive, and we feel so much better knowing they’ll be staying with her again next week. Highly recommend!”
“We are thankful to Jennifer for taking good care of our boy while we were out of town for work. We received quick communication and good availability from Jennifer. Throughout the stay, we received picture updates and quick communication as well. At his return, our energetic pup was healthy, tired, and a happy boy! We didn't have any issues with our multiple day stay with Jennifer. She really gets to know your pet and understands their needs.”
“All I can say is WOW! Was visiting a friend in Fresno and needed a place for my Chihuahua to hang out overnight as the dog and my friend’s cat ate not that fond of each other. What a fortuitous find in Reza. So welcoming. He made everything so easy. He was wonderful at accommodating me at the last minute.Terrific communication—I think I got more pictures and updates on her overnight stay than I’ve gotten in an entire week-long stay elsewhere And his teenage daughter was great with her. And Reza was so understanding when I was late to pick her up. I so appreciate that as I was a little frantic about it and he reassured me it was OK. Highly recommend this wonderful, kind dog sitter. A perfect, worry free stay!”
“Jennifer and her family did a great job of taking care of Kona. They have a very nice home and yard space. Very nice and friendly people who will take good care of your dog. I definitely recommend them and will book with them again. Kona came home happy, healthy, and wore out from all the attention she got. ?”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone who will care for them like family. I have experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels—from playful puppies to sweet senior pups who just want a slower-paced walk and extra cuddles. All my family members and friends rely on me when they are needing their dog to be in safe hands. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged family member! I currently work part-time, which means I'm home for most of the day and have plenty of time to give your dog the attention they deserve. Whether it's walks, playtime, potty breaks, or just relaxing together, your pup will have lots of love, companionship, and care throughout their stay. Your pet will be staying in a loving home with two friendly indoor dogs—one is a sweet senior, and the other is a playful four-year-old. They have free roam of the house and plenty of cozy beds for naps throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced backyard where your dog can safely explore and play. All potty breaks are supervised, and your pup will never feel alone—they'll always have me and my two dogs around for company, companionship, and lots of love.
“Eric was amazing with my golden retriever puppy. He sent daily updates on how she was doing and I could tell she was in very good hands. I would definitely board my dog with him again.”
“Thanh-Mai did a wonderful job with our three girls, which included a four month old puppy. Puppies are so much more work than older dogs and she handled our little Stella marvelously. We received updates every day about how they were doing with videos and photos. The dogs were so very comfortable with her and in her home. They adjusted easily and this was their first time there. She took excellent care of them and they had fun. Thank you, Thanh-Mai. We are so very grateful to you and James. The girls say thank you as well!!!”
“Wonderful sitter. My dogs love her and we trust her with our fur babies. She sends photos and takes them on walks and just treats them so great. I go to her whenever we need a sitter, for short stays and also for weeks or months at a time. I recommend her highly.”
“Nicole was amazing with our pup, Kobe! He had so much fun going on walks with Izzy and Winnie and playing outside, he came home happy and tired. Nicole clearly puts so much care into making every dog feel at home. She sent tons of photos, communicated consistently, and even gave us a polaroid picture of Kobe to take home! We’ll absolutely book with her again anytime we’re in town. Highly recommend!”
“We loved Kim and her family! Excellent communication and overall amazing people! Flash was super happy and was very well taken care of! Highly recommend Kim and will definitely be boarding Flash again with her! Thank you Kim!!!!”
“Our usual sitter was unavailable & we trusted Abigail with our dog. It was our first time with her so we did a meet and greet. Abigail provided plenty of updates throughout the day without me having to ask. It gave us so much peace of mind. We will definitely be using Abigail again, she was very sweet & caring.”
About: I grew up on a farm and have always loved animals. From caring for my own, I found my love for taking care of others, and I branched out into petsitting, housesitting, and the feeding and care of all types, big and small. I’m available for your pets. I have no other working engagements at this time. I can do holidays, and cover your travel needs, and I’m available on any day of the week. I have a fenced in yard, and there is currently a very sociable cat in the house. Crates can be used only when/if when necessary. I provide fresh water, a cozy bed, and anything per their schedule. I will treat them like they are my own: I can play with them, give them lots of love, send photos back to you, and make them feel at home.
“Our first time using rover because we have been pretty skeptical of it but needed a last minute arrangement and we got lucky!! Marissa was great!! Our dog benny had a blast and felt right at home with her. She communicated well and sent all the pictures! We’ll definitely book with her in the future!”
“This was our dog’s first time with a sitter, and they were absolutely great. They took the time to figure out his needs, made him feel comfortable, and kept us updated the whole time. Communication was excellent, and we felt confident knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Silvy felt right at home with Nicole and her family. We felt very comfortable leaving her in her care. She updated us and was quick with communication. Wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. Thanks again, Nicole !”
“It’s a relief to know we have such a caring and professional caregiver for our doggies! Heather has a comfortable and very dog friendly place for them, they have a great time and even make new friends while they’re there :) Love the updates and pictures too! Thank you Heather!”
“Amy boarded my two dogs for a week. She is an excellent sitter. She provided several updates and pictures each day, took the dogs on evening walks and made sure that they were comfortable in a new environment. The dogs also got along well with her dog Bingo. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Will definitely rebook with Amy. She is an amazing sitter.”

Jennifer was awesome! I was so nervous booking a sitter for my puppy for the first time and Im so glad I chose Jennifer. She kept me updated the whole time, and after seeing the photos,my pup looked so happy and comfortable with her. Will for sure book again next time when I'm looking for a sitter to watch my lil monster.
We haven’t picked up our pups yet, but couldn’t wait to leave this review for Jen bc of how much we have adored every bit of not just her updates but the care she’s showered them with!! From the first impression it was a home run choice and we’re so grateful she took our request! She’s gone above and beyond in making them feel so loved.. can’t thank her enough!

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 Sumner Hill 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 Sumner Hill 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 Sumner Hill.
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 Sumner Hill. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 Sumner Hill 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.
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.
