About: Loving Care in a Spacious Home — Your Dog’s Second Favorite Place! 🐾 Hi there! I work from home full-time, which means your pup will have constant companionship and plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I don’t have any pets of my own, so your furry friend will get all the focus and care they deserve. My home is spacious with a large yard that’s perfect for playtime and zoomies! Plus, we’re just a short walk from the local dog park for extra social fun and exercise. Whether your dog loves cuddles, long walks, or lounging in the sun, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. You can count on a calm, safe, and happy environment — where every tail wag is welcomed and every pup is family. ❤️ I work from home so I will give them constant attention and supervision throughout the day and the kids will make sure they get their energy out at night! I have a large yard to run around and play! No pets in the home for a more intimate experience and 4 happy kids to entertain them!
“Rachel replied immediately. She was welcoming. We had a meet & greet with her and Gus, and Levi and I were very impressed :) Her dog Gus is just a cutie pie and loves to play, so he kept my little guy very busy. Levi came home happy and tired! Yes! I hope we can plan another petsitting date soon. Thank you for everything Rachel. I loved the photos you sent me - especially the one with your little girl and Levi.”
About: I like to walk the dogs daily around the Atascadero Lake. I have a decent size fenced backyard with room to run and use my poop scooper daily. I am retired and looking for things to do during the week (mon-Fri) to fill my days. I have always loved the company of dogs and love to take them on daily walks. I have a dog bed in my bedroom, where your dog would sleep at night. The dogs water bowl is always kept clean and fresh. The dogs would always be welcome to hang out in the house with me, too.
“Natalie did a great job with our two little dogs. Her little girl seemed so excited to have them as quests. I was worry our one dog that gets separation anxiety would be a wreck when we got back, but to our surprise she seemed happy and fine. Our other dog who is very friendly was all smiles when he came back. She will do a great job with your pups.”
“Marla was a wonderful sitter for my doggy. She has a great home with a big yard. She was very communicative all day and sent pictures to help me see how she was doing. My dog is used to only being in her own home, so it was nice to see she could do okay in other surroundings. Marla has a kind and gentle spirit and offers a loving environment for your pet!”
“It was a perfect place to put our puppy. It’s scary to leave a dog in another state knowing no one but Janice really made us feel at ease. She sent lots of pictures and had great questions that showed she really cared about giving the proper care to our baby. Hi highly recommend Janice!”
“We had a great experience with Mili, she was super communicative throughout our pup’s stay and sent us regular updates and cute pictures, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she really cares about pets. Highly recommend!”
“Chris, was very patient and kind regarding our 3.5 year old pup and took him on a few walks during his doggie day care time from 9:30-4:30pm. His dog, Cash, and Nugget both enjoyed their puppy time together. Christ was great at being able to handle all the puppy shananagans they had together. Chris really helped me out while my husband and I were at my father’s memorial service. We are so appreciative and recommend his services. He is new to the area but don’t let that stop you from utilizing his services.”
“Absolutely amazing! Madelyn cared for my two pups and my friends pub while we went wine touring, the pups all had such a great time with her! They got to got on long walks on hiking trails and cozied up on the sofa for nap time. Definitely recommend booking through Madelyn. My pups and I are all very comfortable having her watch them would recommend her to anyone visiting Paso Robles and needs a Pup Sitter or trainer for the day.”

“Joan was a compassionate, patient and gracious caretaker for our dog Ollie. It was Ollie's first time with a dog sitter and she took very good care of him. We will definitely bring Ollie back when we travel to the Central Coast area. We highly recommend Joan!”
“Allie was wonderful! Our pugs spent 2 days happy days with her and her dogs. Pugs can be difficult, but with her pack and her care, they did very well and returned content and happy. Great job, Allie!”
About: I have always lived on property I have several dogs and cats. I have had horses even. I love to hangout with animals and take care of them. I have volunteered many times at my local dog humane society in San Luis Obispo. I love going into nature and love having the company from animals. I have gone to several training classes with my own puppies and do a lot of clicker training with them. I have pets on my own and I love to take them on walks daily. I live on property so sometimes I’ll just walk them here or we will go and explore the local beaches. I like being able to get exercise but also have a companion with me. I care for pets in my home by making sure that they have exercise are getting played with and fed. For clients I would like to do whatever they ask me to do. if that means going to the dog park or going on a hike, I am down to do whatever.
“Andrew took excellent care of my two dogs, Katie and Maddie. He is quick to respond to all messages and that gave me great peace of mind. The dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly received plenty of attention. I would absolutely book with Andrew again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter.”
“Could not have felt more comfortable leaving my dog Dobby in Legeras care! She was extremely thoughtful and sent me lots of pictures throughout the day! Dobby had so much fun and he will be excited to hangout with her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Templeton
Though we live in Southern California, we have family all around the Central Coast, and we were so happy to find Rachel to help us with our sweet Luna while we attended a family event. Rachel's property is lovely and clean, with plenty of room for Luna to cruise around. It's also very securely fenced, so we felt so comfortable that Luna was in a nice and safe place. Thank you again to Rachel for your great help- for sure we will book again if needed during a future visit to the area! :-)

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 Templeton 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 159 sitters in Templeton, 88% 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.
