“Gaius was absolutely wonderful with my girl Lilith! I was so worried about her during the holiday but she had such a good time. Even made a new friend with his adorable dog He sent pictures and videos and kept me informed of how she was doing.. Prompt with pickup and drop off. Will definitely use him again.”
“Amazing! I was so worried and I know Harely had the best time! I would book over and over again if Simone will have her. I felt so comfortable and confident Harley’s was in the best care . She sent updates daily which helped me a lot.”
“Barb allowed us to not have any worries while we were on vacation. Bentley had space to run and more attention than he could handle. She updated us and sent pictures which further eased our mind. My family and I would recommend her over and over. We will definitely be trusting her with Bentley in the future”
About: I've cared for animals since I was a little girl. Taking in unwanted litters, and finally when I was 16 I began working at a doggy daycare. I now run my own doggy care center, own 3 dogs myself, and work closely with fosters and rescues in the area. My schedule is very accommodating as I am willing to go out of my way to ensure your pets are cared for. I have a flexible job, and a home that is equipped to care for animals! I love making report cards to track their eating, behavior, and fun stuff we did/learned while in my care! I also work for a dog treat company, and provide organic dog treats!
“My experience with Julie was great! Rusty was well taken care of. Julie kept me updated on how he was doing every day. And when I was delayed an extra day from picking him up because of the airline, she was very understanding and flexible with me picking him up the next day. I would highly recommend using Julie and I will the next time I need a sitter for my fur baby.”
“Stephanie is really great with new dogs , she loved and cared for my cockapoo poodle as if he was her own. She sent multiple pictures and updates about Bentley , she was very responsive when I’d ask for anything. Highly recommend her to watch your dogs if you’re going for a vacation or even a night out. I have booked multiple times now and will continue to do so , my Poodle gets excited to see her and her husband so you know he loves them both.”
“OOO my goodness Laura and her family are simply amazing. My rescue puppy is very human attached and they took her on walks. They cuddled her. They have a safe yard. The communication was amazing. I cannot even tell you how comfortable I was leaving my fur child with them and I will use them over and over and over again. I wish I could stay with them and have them babysit me. LOL love love love them!!!!”
“Fantastic dog sitters and dog lovers. We could tell our dog Raya was super connected with Patricia and Rick, and super well taken care of with lots of walks and snuggles. They really cared about her as their own and shared heaps of pictures throughout the short stay. We also appreciated that it was a last minute booking and they were able to take Raya in. If you’re in Big Bear and need a sitter, please check this beautiful family’s availability!”
“Skippy was with Yesenia for 7 days and nights. He came home clean and happy. Pictures proved he was having a good time, although I wish more pics were sent. I will certainly bring him back when needed. Yesenia also has children who played with him”
“Jack had the best time with Cynthia. I was nervous leaving him worried he would feel abandoned like his previous owner had done to him but Cynthia sent so many pictures and videos of him having fun assuring me everything was great. Thank you for being so amazing to Jack!”
“Lyla and Jake’s dog sitter Raelena was wonderful. Reliable, great with updates and photos, and always kind and caring with the dogs. Lyla and Jake came home happy, relaxed, and well-loved. Highly recommended!”
“Great couple and animal care takers. They came recommended by another rover sitter and were able to come by and check on my cat while I was away. Very communicative and sent me great pictures and videos. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up in a home filled with cats, dogs, rabbits, squirrels and birds. I've reached an age where Im ready to give my all to their love and necessities full time. Im a stay at home empty nester mother who loves animals and the joy they bring. A house just really isn't a home without animals. Im very picky about the food my animals consume. I cook up 6 pounds of turkey a week with added vegetables, a scoop of Iams minichunks and a half of a can of wet food. Sometimes I add a packet of pedigree for a extra treat. People say I feed my dogs better than humans. 🤣

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.
98% of sitters in Thunderbird Ranches 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 Thunderbird Ranches 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 Thunderbird Ranches.
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 Thunderbird Ranches. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 Thunderbird Ranches 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.
