“It was a roller-coaster at first, previous bookie canceled at the last moment so we had to scramble to find another sitter, flight was leaving in 2hrs. She accepted we have never been separated longer than a work day. Anna was/IS great!! She took great care of Aries sent plenty of pix and had us at ease!! Definitely will be booking her again”
“We are SO grateful we found Luna! Our usual dog care fell through right before a long out-of-state trip, and we were genuinely considering postponing because our senior dog, Indi, has recently been diagnosed with IBD and needs a specialized diet, daily meds, and a calm, attentive environment. She can get stressed easily in new places, which has previously led to tummy issues and even skin flare-ups — so we were very nervous about leaving her with someone new. From the very first message, Luna was incredibly warm, proactive, and thoughtful. She even offered to set up a meet-and-greet right away before we could ask, which immediately put us at ease. Once we dropped Indi off, it was clear Luna treats animals like family. Her own dog, Jim, also has IBD, so she had first-hand experience and comfort caring for a pup with similar needs. Throughout the two weeks, Luna provided detailed updates every single day — including meals, meds, walks, and yes, digestion reports (very appreciated 😂). She took so many adorable photos and videos that we could see how happy and relaxed Indi was. Our dog walker also commented on how noticeably happier and healthier Indi seemed while staying at Luna’s — her stools even improved (a true win for IBD dog parents!). Communication was flawless, kind, and reassuring the whole time. We felt completely at ease, which is priceless. We would absolutely book with Luna again and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a sitter who is caring, attentive, and truly exceptional. Indi came home happy, calm, and healthy — we couldn’t ask for more. 💛🐾”
About: I’ve taken care of my puppy and have experienced training him since he was 8 weeks old and now he’s over 2 years old and very energetic and playful. I’ve also taken care of my cat and experienced administering medications through injection and orally when he got really sick. He’s now 5 years old and thriving. I work from home 3 times a week so I have flexibility and on the days I’m in office, I can still make time early morning or evening. We live in a single family home and have dog gates to separate cats and dogs as needed to give them safe spaces. We also have a fenced backyard so doggies can run and play catch.
“Ross was phenomenal! He sent me pictures and updates every few hours over the several days that my dog was with him. I could see how happy my dog was with Ross, and they had lots of fun time together. I am definitely going with Ross in the future for my dog boarding needs!”
About: Hi, I’m Daniel – Your pet’s New Best Friend! As a lifelong dog lover with 7yrs of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, I understand the importance of reliable, loving care for your furry family members. Whether your pup needs a brisk walk, engaging playtime, or cuddles on the couch, I’m here to help! What I Offer: • Dog Walking: Safe, energetic walks tailored to your dog’s needs. • Drop in Visits: Feeding, playtime, and a thorough check-in to ensure your pup is happy and healthy. • Overnight Stays: Providing a cozy, stress free environment when you’re away. Why Choose Me? • Experience with all breeds, from playful puppies to senior dogs. •. Experience working at Namaste dog spa in Belmont, California, reference upon request. • Passionate about positive reinforcement and keeping tails wagging! A Little About Me: I’m based in Pinole Shores and spend my free time exploring local parks and trails, often with my own dogs, Bailey and her daughter Bella, by my side. I treat every dog I care for as if they’re my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness. Let’s chat to see how I can help make your pup’s day brighter! I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged friend. Let me know if you’d like to add personal touches or adjust this further! I live for my pets, taking time off from working 9-5. You can find me either at home or out with my pups exploring a park or trail. I treat pets as if they’re my own, and will cater to any specific requests. At my own home my pups are in the house and when they want to go out to use the bathroom they go in my gated back yard.
About: I’ve had pets of my own for more than 30 years and have extensive hands-on experience caring for animals. I’ve fostered pets for two local rescue organizations and have also volunteered extensively with a well-known local rescue, including at mobile adoption events, screening potential adopters, and conducting home visits. In addition, I’ve provided pet sitting and care for neighbors, friends, and co-workers over the years. I’m very comfortable caring for animals and getting to know their individual personalities, quirks, and routines. With two cats and two dogs of my own, pet care is already a big part of my daily routine! My schedule is flexible, so I’m able to accommodate additional pets throughout the week, including daytime visits as well as mornings and evenings. I’m also happy to work with your pet’s existing schedule and routines as much as possible. I have a fully fenced yard and plenty of flexibility in my home to accommodate visiting pets safely and comfortably. My dogs are socialized and crate-trained, and I also have a separate pet room where my cats can stay if needed, so I’m able to keep animals separated when appropriate. I know that every pet has its own routine and comfort level, so I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and anything else that helps your pet feel at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m equally happy to follow their usual routine and keep things as familiar and consistent as possible while you’re away.
“Kelly has such a welcoming and kind personality and our sweet doodle was in great hands while we were away for 6 nights. He was loved, played with and snuggled by her sweet children to keep him company while we were away. Definitely planning to call her again. Thank you, Kelly!”
About: We have been caring our rescued chihuahua mix since 2018. We have also help our friends and families babysit their dogs when they go on vacation. My partner and I currently working remotely at home; thus, our schedule is flexible. Once we are done with our work, we have plenty of time to serve your pet. I will treat your pet like my own pet. I will make sure your pet has access to water easily and have meals at their regular time.
“Leaving Nugget with Monica gave me immense peace of mind. From the moment we met for the meet and greet, she was communicative, welcoming, and most importantly, very tuned-in to what Nugget’s needs could be during his stay. Her home was a lovely place for Nugget to stay, and her dog and cat are wonderful companions and very well behaved. The walks in Tilden Park were an added privilege. I couldn’t give a higher recommendation.”
“I can tell Sybil had a great time because when it was time to go she curled up in Maria's lap and didn't want to leave 😅. Maria clearly has a way with dogs and my pup had a great time playing with her son as well. Thanks Maria!”
“It’s very clear that Pepper has a great time at Gail’s house. Pepper is a mama’s girl, and rarely leaves my side. But when we went to Gail’s house for her second visit, she ran right in the door and was super excited to play with Gail and her family. We look forward to having Gail puppysit again soon!”
About: I had a high school job after school walk a dog and I did that for a few years and I have personal cats dogs I’m currently working part-time, so I have flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, and playtime. I’ll work with your schedule to make sure your dog gets the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your dog securely leashed during walks, and make sure they always have fresh water and plenty of attention. I’ll respect your home and keep you updated on how your pet is doing.
“We are so grateful to have found Yuko & pack. They took such wonderful care of Scooter and allowed our minds to be at ease while being on vacation for 10 days. We were updated with pictures and videos and we could tell he was having such a blast. That made our hearts very happy! Scooter can be picky and will choose not to eat his meals. They were able to find ways to encourage him to eat all his meals. We are happy to have found this family that Scooter can go to when we need someone to watch him.”
About: Hi! My name is Vivi and I love dogs. (Actually, I love all animals!) I grew up with family dogs and adopted my own last year (she's a complete sweetie). I also have a cat, a bearded dragon, and fish. I worked in a local dog daycare and hotel for over three years and loved it! Now that I'm in a graduate program, I couldn't keep up the hours but missed the dogs. My favorite part of that job was walking the dogs and now I'd love to walk your dog. I really enjoy connecting with each dog, getting to know their personalities, taking care of them, and giving them the attention, stimulation, and fun that comes from being together and enjoying the day. I am currently working on my clinical hours for my degree and am busy Monday and Wednesday after noons 1-5pm and Thursdays at the same time and at 7am-10am every other week. Any other time is all good for me! When I take care of a pet, I care for them in any ways that they might need. I have had experiences with reactive dogs, dogs with specific medical needs, young dogs who are practicing training still, and senior dogs. I want to do what is most comfortable for the dog and am super happy to accommodate for any needs that they have when caring for them! I have experience reading and reacting to cat and dog body language and know when my presence is invited by them and when they might need more space. It's important to look for the animals consent and comfort when working with and taking care of them so they can remain as happy and stress free as possible!
“Te’Arie was great with our maltipoo pup, who can be a bit on the nervous side when first meeting people and other dogs/cats. She knew just what to do to make her feel comfortable during her weekend stay and I loved how she kept me posted on their outings (walks and nearby beach) and shared pics. You can tell Te’Arie has experience working with different personalities and is also just a really warm, caring person. Would definitely book with Te’Arie again and highly recommend!”
“Luna was very relaxed yet responsible when it came to watching Lenny. She has a calm energy and it was clear the dogs loved her when we did a meet and greet. The yard is lovely and the house is like a comfy playground for dogs. Luna updated us with pictures and a summary each day. Grateful she was available!”
About: I am a loving and friendly dog sitter! I grew up with two dogs, a poodle and a Chihuahua. My family currently has a bull terrier that I love very much. I also take care of my best friend's dog when she is out of town. I love dogs and going on walks so this combination is perfect for me. I am currently a nanny to one of nephews as needed but I am free every day during the summer to take care of your furry babies. I make sure I read their cues of needing water/food, when they need to pee/poop, when they're overstimulated, stressed, or happy. I also make sure to pet them and show them love by scratching them, patting them, and rubbing them. I also follow any schedule that is given to me to make sure they stick to their normal routine.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Tara Hills
Jennifer and her husband took great care of Niko during his recent stay with them. He enjoyed lots of walks, hanging out with their dog, and his favorite activity —soccer. They were tolerant of our uncertain schedule, and kept us posted with notes and photos while we were away. We will definitely use them again!
Asatur is truly the best pet sitter we could ask for! He takes such amazing care of our dogs, Luna and Pippi, and we always feel completely comfortable knowing they’re with him. He’s incredibly reliable and is always willing to help, even on short notice. One of the things we love most is that he takes care of multiple dogs at once, so Luna and Pippi get to spend their time hanging out and playing with their friends rather than being alone. They absolutely love going to Asatur’s! He’s also incredibly thoughtful and attentive when it comes to their individual needs. He makes sure they’re fed on schedule, gets their medicine right, and genuinely treats them like they’re his own. It’s clear how much he cares about every dog in his care. We couldn’t recommend Asatur more highly. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your dogs, look no further. Luna and Pippi are always excited to see him, and that says everything!
Kushram and his family were so lovely and took such great care of Hobi! They have a beautiful home with a huge and clean backyard for Hobi to run and sniff to his heart’s content. They sent sweet updates and photos throughout the stay. I’m so glad I found such a caring boarder for my anxious little boy!
Kaja took in our 5 month old puppy last minute so our family could go out of town for a funeral. Once I chatted with her on the phone, I knew our puppy would be in good hands. It was a relief to have one less thing to worry about. Kaja was incredibly communicative and sent us photos and videos. Would absolutely rebook.
Jacqueline gave Paxton the most love and attention! I appreciated the daily updates and she was very responsive. You can tell she truly loves pets and will give them the absolute best care! We’re so happy to have found her, and will continue to book with her in the future.

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 Tara Hills home-away-from-home, 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 Tara Hills.
<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 Tara Hills 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 , 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 .
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.
