“This is my first experience with Rover and Aleesa was wonderful with my 2 dogs. She’s patient, understanding and calm and the dogs seemed completely relaxed at the end of their stay with her. I’m looking forward to booking with her again.”
“Lilly and Ryan were wonderful! I feel so lucky to have found them. They live in my apartment complex, which made everything so convenient, and they took great care of my little Millie. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. I’m so grateful for their help and will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you both! ❤️❤️❤️”
“I had a great experience with Ryan. He took excellent care of my senior dogs, including one who was healing from an ingrown nail and had some trouble walking. He handled him with such care and patience. I appreciated the photo update while I was away and both drop-off and pick-up were seamless. My dogs came back calm and content. I would definitely recommend Ryan and will be booking again in the future.”
“Dina let me book on extremely short notice and did a great job taking care of my dog! She was very responsive and timely, and I would definitely trust her again with Khai.”
“Millie had such a great day with Hope! She got to hang out on the balcony, play fetch with her ball, and go out for frequent potty breaks. Hope was super kind and communicative and Millie warmed up to her quickly :) can’t wait to bring her back soon!!”
“Mickie was fabulous. This is the first time she cared for our dogs. We were immediately impressed by her and her space. She took great care of our two dogs while we went to a concert. They got along great with Mickie’s dogs. She has a great space for the dogs. I would be happy to have Mickie care for my dogs again.”
About: Hi, I’m Ryan! I’m a Venice local and proud dog dad to Joey, my dachshund. As a dog owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your best friend in someone else’s care. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routines, and favorite things, following your instructions so they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether they enjoy an energetic walk or a leisurely sniff around the neighborhood, I’m happy to go at their pace. You can expect attentive care, clear communication, and regular updates. I’m also a photographer, so a few cute photos of your pup are part of the experience! I work from home most days and spend much of my time with Joey, my 5 1/2 year old dachshund and best friend. My flexible schedule means I’m generally available for walks and house sitting mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m happy to plan around your pet’s usual routine. I’ll follow your pet’s routines, respect your home, and keep you updated with photos and messages along the way. If your pet enjoys other dogs, I’d be happy to have Joey join us for walks or company, with your permission and an introduction to make sure they’re comfortable together. If your pet prefers care without another dog around, my fiancée can look after Joey, so I can come on my own and give your pet my full attention.
“Second time my dog has had daycare with Kathleen and she sent me cute photos and my dog looked happy and relaxed. The Rover Card completion is always appreciated. Looking forward to the next one!”
“Kaitlin is unreal. Truly next-level. From the second we dropped Ollie off, the energy was calm, grounded, and deeply reassuring. One early morning it was still dark when we arrived, and she instinctively turned on the lights, walked him through the house, and helped him settle like a seasoned dog whisperer. Who does that. Someone who gets dogs, that’s who. She’s intuitive, communicative, and wildly attentive without being overbearing. The updates were thoughtful, the vibe was steady, and Ollie came home relaxed, happy, and very clearly loved. It’s rare to find someone who understands not just the logistics of dog care, but the emotional side of it. Kaitlin has that dialed. We trust her completely and feel incredibly grateful to have found her. If you’re on the fence, don’t be. Book her. Just maybe not on the days we need her.”
“An absolute gem on Rover! David and Taylor are incredible - very warm, friendly and extremely trustworthy. Miso had the best time staying with them! Their home has an abundance of space for the dogs to sprawl around (+ beautiful house) & David really treated my dog like their own! I couldn’t recommend them enough! Will definitely be booking again next time I’m in LA :)”
“Joe was very nice, easy to communicate with, and sent great photos of Magic enjoying his fenced-in yard and relaxing inside. Would definitely book again. Thank you, Joe! Appreciate you taking Magic in last minute!”
“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Lindsey! She can be more nervous around new people but she settled right in with Lindsey and Zeus and had a great time. We appreciated all of Lindsey’s communication and photos too! We’ll definitely be booking future stays with Lindsey :)”
About: I have a lot of personal experience with dogs. When I lived in Spain, I had three dogs: two German Shepherds and one Maltese, so I grew up taking care of dogs with very different personalities, sizes, and needs. Since moving here, I have also been helping take care of my boss’s dog and my neighbor’s dog, so I am very comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving them lots of attention and love. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and would treat any dog in my care as if they were part of my family. I work from home, so I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and attention during the day. My goal is to enjoy caring for a dog, since I’m not currently able to adopt one of our own. I live in a dog-friendly home near the beach, which makes it perfect for daily walks and outdoor time. I’m very responsible, caring, and attentive, and i would make sure any dog staying with us feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I would follow the owner’s routine carefully and treat their dog like part of our family.
About: Hello! I’m a former dog and horse trainer (have owned both most of my life) who now works as a freelancer from home. I travel for work periodically so I can’t have my own pet but would love to surrogate yours! Animals bring me so much joy and I feel much more connected to them then people sometimes. In addition to frequent walks and lots of spoiling (per your permission) I’m also a runner and would love to take your pup on jogs with me daily. Also please tell me your training words/rules and I’ll reinforce your training and maybe teach them new tricks! I do have a strict positive reinforcement only rule for all creatures. For negative behaviors you’d be amazed how much tone of voice, human body language and eye contact work as training tools. Happy to share with you training tips when you pick up you pet. As an animal lover I’m down if you want to FaceTime your pup too. And happy to give any updates as you’d like. I look forward to meeting you and your pup!
“I am always nervous about leaving my dog with a new sitter, he’s a Maltese and quite an anxious pup by nature but Amir and Steph were wonderful with him. They kept me updated through the day and sent some cute photos. I came back to a happy, relaxed (ish), sleepy dog who had obviously enjoyed himself - I couldn’t ask for more. If I need more dog sitting I’ll definitely be in asking them.”
About: I have over 5 years of experience dog sitting and have taken care of dogs across all breeds and sizes. I communicate very well with my clients and send frequent check ins to ensure they feel comfortable while they’re away. I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule. I have time throughout the day to spend time with your pets and keep them busy. I am very patient and great at understanding pets needs. I would ensure they are comfortable with me in their space and send my clients frequent check ins throughout the day.
“Ross watched our puppy ‘Henry’ this evening while my husband and I had “date night”. Ross is very experienced with dogs and handled our four-month-old golden retriever puppy beautifully. Thanks, Ross!”

Anna has been amazing with Beau! After finding out I needed to be back in office 4x a week for 11 hour days, I found Anna who was extremely accommodating and caring for my guy! Especially with all the heat waves going on, she kept him comfortable throughout the day and discovered his favorite thing in the world: his ball. Responsive, kind, accommodating (as I had to switch days one week and she said yes right away) and her love for animals is apparent. Definitely will continue to book!
I almost hesitate to leave a review for Kaitlind because I don't want her to become so booked that I can never use her again. She is absolutely fantastic in every way. Seriously, I cannot recommend her highly enough. We have two large dogs. One is young and somewhat rambunctious. The other is older, in diapers and quite scared of new people and routines. We had never left them at anyone else's home before, so when we needed to this time, I was worried. We met with several other sitters and it just didn't click. The dogs were upset and we weren't comfortable with the environment. Then we met Kaitlind. Our afraid-of-everything dog went prancing into her house with her tail wagging, clearly comfortable and at ease. Kaitlind is kind, knowledgeable, flexible, accommodating and an excellent communicator. She is so understanding and really, really good with the dogs. We will never use anyone else until Kaitlind moves away or stops pet sitting. She's fantastic. If I could give 10 stars, I would.
Yadi has taken care of Laika many times while we’ve been away traveling, and we always feel completely at ease knowing Laika is with her. She is caring, responsible, and genuinely loves dogs. Laika is always happy and comfortable with Yadi, which means so much to us. We trust her completely and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and loving to care for their dog!
Deniz was so sweet and my anxious dog Kaiya settled right in! I am so glad the sitting day went well as my pup has some issues being around other dogs and has a bunch of those tricky husky behaviors. Luckily Deniz had lots of experience and had no problems accommodating to Kaiya's needs!
Christelle is absolutely AMAZING!!! She is everything you would want and more in a dog sitter. Our pup has been experiencing some separation anxiety after a move, and she was so patient and calm with her adjustment into her environment, even updating us on her interactions. Christelle was kindly accepting of our request within minutes of dropping Olive off, and her responses and updates again were very professional and out of the way to make sure we were informed. We had some harder news reach us in our personal lives this night, and showing up to a kind soul with our pup very happy was a really beautiful relief in the night. Thank you Christelle! You did more than just pup sit! If you’re wondering about booking her, rest assured your pup is in the right spot.

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.

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 .

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
