“Our two dogs were here for the first time and seemed to adjust. Renee is flexible with my schedule changes. I was not worried about leaving our dogs with her and her family”
“Shanna was an amazing dog sitter for Wiley. She has a lovely, clean home and a fenced yard. She sent updates of our dog looking very comfortable and happy. It was nice to have peace of mind while we were away. 5/5 stars recommend!”
“Apryl was very accomodating and super quick to respond to our reservation. Less than 10 minutes she said it was okay to drop our pup off at 5:00 am the next morning! What a life saver as we were in a bind. Our pup had a great time and was well exercised even made a new puppy friend! Would definitely use her services again!”
“Nalani is a great sitter! She is very sweet. I was so lucky to find her during a last minute trip. She sent videos and pictures of Bailey throughout the day and replied promptly. I will definitely contact her again on my next trip.”
“Maribel was so good with my Gidget girl. Maribel sent me photos and updates every day. It really set me at ease knowing she was being so well taken care of. Maribel has a huge back yard so Gidget could run and play. Maribel was so nice and easy to talk to. I will definitely use Rover/Maribel again for my dog sitting needs.”
“Haley did an excellent job caring for my high energy dog. My dog was actually tired when she got home and smelled good too! Haley has a calm, caring demeanor and was very flexible with drop-off/pick-up times. It is a huge plus that Haley has other little dogs for my dog to play with. I would definitely book with Haley again.”
“It was hard to leave my dog with any sitter, however, I’m very glad I left my dog with Akie! She took such good care of my frenchie. Akie was wonderful with my frenchie and really made me feel at ease knowing my frenchie was safe and in good hands. Akie had a great home and very accommodating to dogs.”
“Amazing sitter, Breanna was so attentive and great with Dewey! She is very responsive and clearly loves animals, I would definitely book her again! She has a way with pets”
“Ana was such a great sitter for our dog Jowdee ?? She went above and beyond to ensure a lovely and comfortable stay for him. She constantly stayed in touch with photos and videos. Definitely recommend and will use Ana again if we ever need our dog watched over ?”
“I’ve never had my dogs literally excited once they realized they were being dropped off at a dog sitter before. This is my second time using Sara and when I was standing at her front door to drop them off, my elderly dog was scratching at the door to be let in! Both dogs immediately acted like she was family. Highly recommend”
“I had a great experience! He took excellent care of Buddy and made me feel comfortable leaving him with his family. He was very responsive, always replied quickly, and sent me updates and pictures whenever I asked. It was clear Buddy was well cared for and had a great time. I'm especially glad he got along so well with the kiddos. They seemed to really enjoy having him around, and Buddy enjoyed being with them too. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Stephanie is the sweetest person ever! So easy going and cheerful. Nattie had an amazing time in her enormous back yard, playing chase with Maverick. We felt so comfortable leaving our fur baby with her, and I’m pretty sure Nattie is going to want to hang out with Auntie Stephanie and cousin Maverick again soon. :)”
“I was very nervous about leaving Mochi with anyone but I had zero doubts from the minute I arrived at Anna’s home to drop off. From the beginning of the booking process with Anna, I felt as though I was leaving my pet with someone who would take great care of her. Anna kept me updated about Mochi during her stay, alleviated any of my concerns, reassured me during the whole process and my Mochi seemed to have a great time with her puppy friends. If you are looking for someone to care for your fur baby, look no further once you find Anna.”
“Priscilla watched our very active German Shepherd puppy and did an excellent job. Communication was great. She responded quickly to any messages sent. We would definitely use her again!”

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Taft 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 Taft.
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.
You and your Taft 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.
