“Elyssa and her family were wonderful. They took our boy into their home and treated him just like their own. Elyssa gave us daily updates and pictures. We could not ask for a better place to leave our treasured boy. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again. She's the best.”
About: I've had dogs my whole life — all 40+ years of it. Reading a dog's mood, sticking to their routine, and knowing when something's off is second nature to me, not something I just picked up. And at my age, I'm past the flaky stage: I'm reliable, I show up, I communicate, and I treat your dog the way I treat my own. I'm Kristi, 43, from Sanger, and dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Right now my days revolve around my two dogs — Mina, a 2-year-old pit bull and shepherd mix who's all energy and very food-motivated, and Skai, a husky, shepherd, and lab mix who is 3-years-old and the mellow one. Between the two of them, I'm used to every kind of dog day: high-energy play, slow couch time, and everything in between. I work remotely for work so it makes it easy to be home with them all the time. Your dog joins our normal daily routine — feeding on their own schedule, walks and playtime, plenty of downtime, and a calm place to sleep at night. I have a yard with room for more dogs, and I can keep your dog separate from mine if that's a better fit — whether they need their own space or just do better one-on-one. I stick to whatever routine you give me, send you updates and photos, and if anything seems off, I call you right away and get them to a vet if needed.
“Krystle is the best!!! Our dog loves her and so do we. We would recommend Krystle to anyone who is looking for a loving, safe, fun place for their furry family member to stay while the non-furry family members are away. When you return from your trip, you will find your dog happy, healthy and wagging wildly.”
“We are so happy with the care that Riley and Derek provided our pup. We could tell that he was well loved and fit right in with their family. We would absolutely use them again!”
About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone who will care for them like family. I have experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels—from playful puppies to sweet senior pups who just want a slower-paced walk and extra cuddles. All my family members and friends rely on me when they are needing their dog to be in safe hands. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged family member! I currently work part-time, which means I'm home for most of the day and have plenty of time to give your dog the attention they deserve. Whether it's walks, playtime, potty breaks, or just relaxing together, your pup will have lots of love, companionship, and care throughout their stay. Your pet will be staying in a loving home with two friendly indoor dogs—one is a sweet senior, and the other is a playful four-year-old. They have free roam of the house and plenty of cozy beds for naps throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced backyard where your dog can safely explore and play. All potty breaks are supervised, and your pup will never feel alone—they'll always have me and my two dogs around for company, companionship, and lots of love.
“All I can say is WOW! Was visiting a friend in Fresno and needed a place for my Chihuahua to hang out overnight as the dog and my friend’s cat ate not that fond of each other. What a fortuitous find in Reza. So welcoming. He made everything so easy. He was wonderful at accommodating me at the last minute.Terrific communication—I think I got more pictures and updates on her overnight stay than I’ve gotten in an entire week-long stay elsewhere And his teenage daughter was great with her. And Reza was so understanding when I was late to pick her up. I so appreciate that as I was a little frantic about it and he reassured me it was OK. Highly recommend this wonderful, kind dog sitter. A perfect, worry free stay!”
“Briana took care of our three month old poodle and pug. She was great with them, she gave them baths (when needed), played with them and kept me posted daily on them. I would use her again and recommend her to anyone who is wanting the best care for their babies.”
About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can trust. I’m dependable, attentive, patient, and treat every pet like family. I enjoy giving pets plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, and a comfortable environment while keeping their normal routines as consistent as possible. I’m a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of time, attention, and care to the pets staying with me. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to accommodate your pup’s individual routine and needs. Our home sits on 3 acres, including approximately 1 acre of fully fenced backyard space where dogs can safely enjoy plenty of room to play and explore. We also have a friendly Golden Retriever who loves having four-legged friends around! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a safe, welcoming home environment with plenty of supervised outdoor time. Our property includes approximately 1 acre of fully fenced backyard space where dogs can safely play and explore. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, exercise preferences, and any special instructions you provide. I also have a friendly Golden Retriever who enjoys having canine companions, and I make sure all interactions are safe and appropriate for each dog’s personality and comfort level. For dogs who need additional exercise, I can provide supervised off-leash play in the fenced yard as well as leashed walks around the property. I take the time to get to know each pet individually so they can feel comfortable, secure, and at home during their stay.
“Amazing!!!! Highly recommend. My sweet baby didn’t even want to leave. She had so much fun and Farin made sure to send me lots of pics and videos and took such great care of my luci! I can’t wait for her to go back and continue having so much fun.”
“This was my first time leaving Izzy with a sitter. Iris made it stress free for me! She quickly responded to my check in text messages and sent photos. I will definitely have her watch Izzy again for me.”
“My dogs seemed to really enjoy staying with Nicole. I received pictures of the dogs during the stay. My puppy Leroy can be skittish with people, but he was cuddling with Nicole and her boyfriend within the first hour. And Leroy loves to wrestle and chase/be chased by other dogs - and he had a blast playing with Nicole's dogs.”
About: I have cared for dogs for many years. I can walk, feed, and play with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I will treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe and loved. It's a large part of my daily routine. I have three dogs, all different breeds, which means I take care of them differently because of their different personalities. I have a part-time job; however I work a maximum of 6 hours and I am free before and after work. Right now, I don't offer in-home care at my residence; however, when caring for a client's pet, their safety is my priority. I make sure fences and doors are secure and pay close attention to any illnesses or special needs.
“We’ve left our dog, Piper, with Eric a couple of times now and she loves it! He’s great with updates and pics and takes very good care of her. We’re completely at ease about where she’s staying and the care she’s receiving when we’re gone.”
“I couldn’t recommend Thanh-Mai enough! I’m extremely picky about who I leave my dog with, and up until now I’ve only trusted family since he’s such an escape artist. Thanh-Mai went above and beyond. She was amazing and truly better than I could have asked for. She sent updates, photos, and videos throughout the weekend, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog did even better than I expected in her care, and I could tell he was happy and loved on the whole time. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Awesome sitter!! Morgan and family were wonderful and tended to our poodle pup as one of their own furry family members!! She helped out by extending Alfies visit a few hours!! Thank you so much! We hope to have Alf “visit” again!!! 🤗”
“We loved the little welcome message when our pup got to the front door. Alex is obviously comfortable and good at her role. My pup is a little rescue who doesn't always adjust to new situations easily. Alex was present to my dog and made sure I got all my needs met. My other family members who met her liked her a lot. Thank you Alex.”
“Thank you Carola, We are very satisfied with the care we received for hunter. Carola keep us updated with lots of pictures of all the activities they done throughout the stay. She went all out and even shower and brush hunters coat. She really took care of our dog and We are so thankful and definitely will book again soon. Many thanks and highly recommended.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Uva
My 1st time using the Rover app. I wanted someone close by and after looking at others I went with Manuel G. He kept me informed of my dogs progress and texted pictures. Manuel followed my feeding schedule each day she was there. My dog is very laid back and chills on the floor or couch. This past 4th of July he kept my dog calm when she would get scared of the fireworks around the neighborhood. When I picked up my dog she acted the same way as if she were home. I recommend Manuel G to watch your pets. I will rebook with him again when I go on another trip because I know my dog will be well taken care of.
This was our 2nd time using Manuel as our sitter and couldn’t recommend him enough to care for your pet. He consistently communicates and provides updates with photos of your pet enjoying their stay and playing with other pet friends. We have peace of mind when away that Artemis is in good hands. ☺️

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.
95% of sitters in Uva 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 Uva 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 Uva.
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 Uva. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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 Uva 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.
