“Booked with Veronica a few times for Topher's boarding. She's always been great and communicative. I know Topher can be a handful sometimes being a senior pup, but I'm thankful that she takes good care of him while we're apart!”
“Diana was wonderful with my dog, Blue! She took him in on a short notice and gave him so much love and attention. I could tell he felt right at home. She kept me updated and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I’m so grateful for her care and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Thank you, Mel, for the great care you provided for our Milo. We appreciate your love for our Milo. He came home worn out, which tells us he had a great time with you and the other pets you watch. I highly recommend Mel to care for your fur babies. We will be a returning customer.”
“Brittany and her family are fantastic! My pup and I had a long-time boarder that was amazing that moved away, so to say I had anxiety to find someone new is an understatement. Finding Brittany was a stroke of luck and we couldn’t be more excited.”
“Sandra did an amazing job taking care of our dog, Morgan! She was kind, attentive, and made sure Morgan felt comfortable and loved while we were away. We really appreciated all the picture updates and detailed messages she sent—it gave us such peace of mind knowing Morgan was in great hands. We highly recommend Sandra to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter. Thank you Sandra!!”
“Laurel was just the kind of sitter we needed! I am new to town and needed to travel for work. She met with me and Oliver within a day and I felt assured he’d be in great hands. Her home is comfortable and clean, with a great yard for the dogs. Highly recommend!”
“Alex has been amazing. Since the day i booked her to coming home from my trip she has kept me up too date and sending me tons of pictures! I was gone for a work trip and have never left my pup with anyone but family, but from now on will go to only Alex(if able to). She’s calm, patient, and wants to make sure you and your pet are comfortable the whole time. Alex thank you for all you do, I highly recommend her for any and all needs😊”
“I greatly appreciate the help Patty gave to my cat, Ash! Patty was very reliable, attentive, warm hearted, patient and understanding in handling my cat needs. Is great at communicating and sending updates with photos. Thank you Patty for making Ash feel at home so she could have an enjoyable experience! Would like to book again if there is another opportunity. Take care!”
About: Working remotely I give your pets the care and love that they deserve. More hugs! More walks! More love! More safety! In rural vt I cared for small and large homes, and medium to larger dogs. Active pets I am active. Older pets and I respite with them more. Every animal has a different personality and different needs. I care. They seem to know. lol. On a side note I volunteer with a local animal shelter and a food bank. I try to make a difference where I can. Growing up we had family dogs. It taught me how amazing animals are. I now have time to give them kindness and love as you would... When I stay in your home your pets have less stress and anxiety in a familiar place. In my home or yours, I take pets for walks and caring play time throughout my workday. This care and attention and play reduces stress and your pet may be more relaxed coming home like after a day at the spa. Yup. :-) Working from my home or yours means more care for your loved family member (aka pets)!
“This was my first time using Rover and I am so pleased to have found Louie! I am so grateful that I was able to take my family vacation and be at peace with my dog being well taken care of. I especially appreciate the photos and updates I received. Thanks so much Louie and Nadine!”
“I would not hesitate to recommend Arianna to anyone considering her to take care of their fur babies. She is amazing, she communicates, cared for my Gio and Boba as if there were her own, sent pictures and videos. They spent 5 happy days with Arianna with amazing care and love! I will be a repeat client with Arianna anytime I need boarding. This home environment with a family was so much nicer than a kennel. I was at peace the entire time on my trip knowing Gio & Boba were in her excellent care. Thank you Arianna! Love from Gio & Boba too!”
“Tania and her family are wonderful! They took such great care of my dogs and Tania was very responsive and communicative. I loved the updates I got every day and my dogs were super happy. I will absolutely book with Tania again!!”
“Ashley is great! She’s very good at communicating while she’s in the care of our fur baby! I genuinely feel that Bailey was happy and felt at home. I will definitely book with her in the future! Thank you Ashley!”
“This was our first time booking with Carola and we had a great experience. Our little Dukey boy loved his stay and hanging out with her pups, Killer and Prince. Duke almost didn't want to come home! 😂 I didn't have phone connection during my time away and she still sent daily updates with pictures, even though I didn't respond. Highly recommend Carola for your pet's boarding needs!”

About: I have been a dog mom most of my life. More recently I’ve worked with a rescue and have experience fostering dogs . All 3 of my dogs are rescues and they are all very different so I’ve learned that they all their own individualized plan I currently work full time so I am available most weekends for boarding. Sometimes I’m off over the summer so my availability opens up then I have a really big fenced yard and a cozy pet friendly home. I have 3 small dogs who I love very much. My heeler mix is a bit fear aggressive towards new people and large dogs but he is obedient and I am working on socializing him more and I know exactly to manage. I’ve fostered a variety of dogs the last year and he just needs time to warm up to new dogs and people. My other 2 are terrier mixes and have been socialized since they were pups.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Visalia
Sandra was absolutely lovely - a wonderful family with kids and their own pets, they really take great care of the dog as if it is their own. Sent us updates twice a day with wonderful pictures, our pup had a great time and was very well cared for. 100% recommend and will go back every time we visit this area. Thank you!
Patty and her family were very receptive to Ivy and they offered a warm and inviting environment. Ivy, who is a companion animal is excitable in new environments but this did not seem to be a problem for Patty and her family. We are very happy and will not hesitate to book her again.
We were very satisfied with Hachie’s stay with Luke and his wife. We’re so thankful they were able to accommodate us on such short notice. Luke responded quickly, addressed all of our concerns, and even arranged a last-minute meet and greet, which made us feel very comfortable leaving Hachie in their care. Our pup came home happy and well cared for we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We’d definitely book with them again!

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
83% of Visalia sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Visalia landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Visalia 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 Visalia.
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.
You and your Visalia 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.
