About: I became a dog trainer in 2007. I believe in positive reinforcement, crate training, and a family environment. Our dogs are part of the pack and never left outside. We have fostered over 300 dogs for our local rescue, Bandit's Buddies, and have never met a dog that we didn't like! I enjoy walking our dogs in the cool mornings, going to agility, and training fun tricks. Our animals are flea free, moderate energy, friendly with all dogs, and great teachers for puppies. We don’t have carpet so we don't mind helping with potty training. Please don't hesitate to contact us with questions or concerns! I work from home full-time so the dogs are never left alone. We have a doggy door so they always have access to the large back yard. We have 2 dogs that love to play and cuddle. We have two cats that come and go as they please. Fences are all secured.
“Lovely day care stay for Bubbles and Peanut. Lots of room to roam around and explore. Separate area setup and segregation possible for smaller and larger dogs. Would definitely recommend Michael’s dog services to friends and family.”
“As always, Audra was a fabulous sitter for my furry babies. She always loves on them and they LOVE to go to her house. She communicates great, provides excellent care, and her home environment is perfect for the dogs to enjoy indoor and outdoor space as well as play with their doggy friends😊 She is my one and only sitter because she is the BEST!!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with a pet sitter, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the beginning, Frank was kind, professional, and genuinely caring. Throughout the day, he kept me updated with adorable photos and little notes, which made me feel so at ease. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I’m so grateful to have found someone as trustworthy and passionate as Frank. I will definitely be reaching out again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“My dog Ralphie loves Heather and her dog, Timber. I never have to worry about Ralphie during the day when he is with Heather, and she always sends me pictures of him playing and having fun at her house. Heather is very responsive and flexible. I'm glad I found her!”
“Krystle was great since the beginning! She took us the same hour we searched for her on a Sunday. Krystle updated us with pictures and nice comments about our dog. We saw that she has a LOT of experience with dogs. Our 10yr old Golden Retriever came back happy! We would come back and recommend her to any of our friends.”
“Clarissa was amazing! Super accommodating when we told her that we were running late at the end of the night. Her family took our dogs (who are very large) for a walk and played with them outside. Her text updates were adorable as well. We will DEFINITELY be booking with her again!”
“Adrianna is amazing!! Really cares for Jasmine and keeps me well informed. My baby always come home happy and so positive. Thank you for all the care you give!! Anytime I need something I will be reaching out again.”
“Kendra was fantastic! She sent me fun pictures and videos that made me so comfortable with my pup being there. She was easy to communicate with and provided the best experience. My pup even put herself to bed early last night after having so much fun at Kendra’s.”
“So glad my doggo and Sara are good with each other. Because of summer Valley heat it’s necessary to provide a safe place for Terra while in long appointments. Sara is a good resource. Thank you!”
“Elyssa and her lovely fam were incredible. I was visiting family in the area and left Mac with her for the day while we went boating. Mac clearly had an amazing time hanging out with his new family for the day. Her kids were so sweet with Mac (they even discovered his high fiving trick!) and Mac loved hanging with them. I felt very secure knowing that Elyssa would care for Mac and knew he was safe with her and her family. She understood that we don’t leave Mac alone and assured us someone would be with him all day. She also understood his medical condition and was attentive and ensured he was happy and not anxious. I will definitely leave Mac with Elyssa in the future when I’m in town. I am so grateful knowing there is a reliable, caring dog sitter near my family in Clovis as it will make visiting and doing non-dog friendly activities much easier without having to leave Mac behind.”
“Eric responded quickly to my last minute request and welcomed Luna with a big smile and a safe home. I had updates and photos that made me feel like she was in good hands. I would highly recommend Eric.”
“Jennifer and her husband were awesome! They walked my pup first thing, played ball with her, and she even had a swim with her kids! I’ve already rebooked for a future date and will continue to come back to her!”
“Angela took great care of our boy. Nice fenced yard for outside play and takes great care to ensure a good fit and happy dog. Very good communication and lots of pictures :)”
“Everly and I were immediately impressed with meeting Megan. We both felt so comfortable right away. I love getting the pictures of the day they had together. Megan is very nice and such a blessing..I could tell right away that everly had a great time. Thank you so much!”
“My rescued dog Jojo is very timid and slow to allow people into her trust. ReShan quickly won her heart and her trust, and mine as well. She is always so happy to see him, I know he treats her well. I have that peace of mind that she is well loved and cared for while I can't be with her. ReShan makes sure Jojo gets lots of walks and exercise, which she loves , and he brushes her coat so it shines. ReShan has also helped Jojo to make progress with her fear of dogs. She recently, at age 4 years, play-bowed to another dog, a first for her! ReShan also commands her respect and obedience, something I am still working at. Jojo and I are very thankful to have ReShan's help in our lives.”

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 Tarpey 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 256 sitters in Tarpey, 89% 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.
