“We were hesitant to leave our Nico with a sitter due to him recovering from an injury. But after reading her profile and seeing how knowledgeable and experienced she was, we had no doubt our Nico was in amazing hands. Lauren kept us updated with messages and pictures, allowing us complete peace of mind while we were away. She went above and beyond to make sure our anxious pup was comfortable. Highly recommend and would gladly book again!”
About: I am on Kern County Sheriff's Search and Rescue Team, I am fingerprinted and background vetted. So your animals and property would be well protected. I have taken care of animals of every kind since I was a young girl. I also worked at a veterinary hospital while I was in high school, which fueled my passion for animals. Family, friends and neighbors have all relied on me to take care of their beloved pets. Whether it's dropping dogs off at my home or me staying at their house to provide a calming, reassurance to your pet while they were gone. I am currently retired. So I have plenty of time to look in on your pet, take them for walks, give them love and nuzzles. Or just come and peek in on them and make sure they have plenty of food and water and that they are okay. Some animals that I take care of do not care for people to stick around in their home. So I just check on them several times a day and make sure they're doing okay. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to play with your pups and keep them active. I can easily create if need be.
“Dominie took such great care of my Morty! For my dog having really bad anxiety, I received him back and had absolutely no worries at all. He seemed calm and I can tell he was really taken care of. I was updated consistently throughout the day with pictures, videos and updates on how he was adjusting. The communication was amazing! I will definitely be returning for future stays. Thank you Dominie for taking great care of Morty!”
“Rocket loves going to Mellysa’s and playing with her sweet puppies! She sends the best updates, and obviously goes above and beyond to care for Rocket. She gives me peace of mind!”
“She did a great job with keeping my husky safe and happy especially during the holidays and while it was raining. She was quick to respond and let me know in full detail what my dog was up to and informed me of any problems that she noticed. The only small issue I had was that I wished she updated me earlier about how my dog was doing but besides that she was great.”
“Alondra watched my dog while I was out of town for a extended weekend. I was sent photos and videos of her everyday. I felt completely comfortable the whole time I was away; I knew that Abbie was well taken care of and safe. I would recommend having her sit your dog, I plan on using her again when I need a sitter.”
“I’ve never had my dogs literally excited once they realized they were being dropped off at a dog sitter before. This is my second time using Sara and when I was standing at her front door to drop them off, my elderly dog was scratching at the door to be let in! Both dogs immediately acted like she was family. Highly recommend”
“Adriana was incredible with my senior dog! I'm completely obsessed with him & she made me feel at ease while I was on vacation. She did an amazing job sending me pictures & updates on him. I would 100 percent use her again as well as highly recommend her to friends & family. Thank you Adriana!!!!”
“I left my fur baby with Amorita and I could not have asked for a better sitter. She sent me pictures daily and made sure my mind was at ease. I definitely recommend her. Thank you again 😊”
“Courtney took very good care of my senior dog, Cindy. She is friendly, communicative, and conscientious. Cindy was very comfortable in her home. We both highly recommend Courtney, and will likely use her services again!”

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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.
97% of sitters in Walong 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 Walong 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 Walong.
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 Walong. On Rover:
- 93% 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 Walong 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.
