“Ron is great with Mima! She is a senior and isn't usually very comfortable staying away from me but every time I take her to Ron's house she walks in without looking back! Leaving her with Ron gives me peace and everytime I pick her up she is happy. :) Whenever we need boarding for Mima, Ron is right at the top of our list! Thank you so much, Ron!!”
“Brittany was an amazing dog sitter. She was amazing with my older dog who is a little anxious and not dog friendly. She made sure he was well taken care of. I would definitely let Ryder stay with Brittany any time!”
About: I've been caring for friends' dogs for the past eight years, ever since I became a dog mom myself. Because I work from home, I'm able to provide plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and potty breaks throughout the day. I'm the kind of dog mom who throws my pup a birthday party every year, complete with treats, decorations, and lots of love. Dogs are truly part of the family in my house. Hi! My name is Kendra, and I'm a marketing professional who works remotely from home full-time. I have an 8-year-old Goldendoodle named Henry, who has spent many happy days with Rover sitters over the years. Now that I'm working from home, I'm excited to provide the same level of care and attention to other dogs that I always wanted for my own. My home is located in a quiet neighborhood and features a fully fenced yard, providing a safe and secure space for dogs to explore and play. I believe in regular updates and clear communication, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for.
“They are the nicest people and treated Tom as if he was their own. They kept sending pics of Tom having the best time, which allowed me to enjoy my vacation.”
“Stephanie took such wonderful care of Jax over the weekend! She kept me updated with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear he was having the best time. Her backyard is truly a dream for dogs—plenty of space to run and play—and Jax loved having other dog friends to spend time with. Stephanie is always responsive, thoughtful, and you can genuinely feel how much she loves animals. I knew Jax was in great hands the entire time. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her—she’ll love your pet like her own.”
“This is our 2nd time booking Jo Lynn and David to dog-sit for us. We had a fantastic experience! They took excellent care of Griffen, kept us updated with photos and messages, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.”
“Barbara is a great awesome caregiver for my Maggie. She kept us updated every day and it seemed like Maggie probably didn’t wanna come home cause barber shows a lot of love towards animals. I would recommend her highly.”
“Very impressed with the level of care given to our dog. If I can speak for our dog, Molly, she seemed to have a really good time. We will be a repeat customer and can't recommend enough!”
“Finley recently spent 3 weeks with Jezka and it was obvious from the photos and videos that he had a fabulous time with her. He went places and did things that he doesn't normally get to do, and we are glad that Jezka gave him new experiences. They had a real lovefest! She took such great care of our pup. We will definitely book more "Jezka Time" for Finley soon!”
“Annika, John, and Pepper were great! We boarded our dog for the first time with strangers and he was understandably a bit anxious (and so were we). But they were great hosts and very responsive and extremely responsible. Pepper was a gracious host. Felix had a great time overall!”
“We had Evita watch our Frenchie, Phoebe, for a full week, and she did an amazing job. Phoebe needed a few days to adjust and even had a more than a few accidents, but Evita handled it with total patience and grace. She sent frequent photo updates and was in touch constantly, so we never had to worry. Highly recommend Evita to anyone looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!”
“Vanessa was an incredible sitter to my Shiba Luffy, so much that he didn’t want to leave her side and would feel right at home in their home. Videos throughout the day, constant walks, even given treats from local vendors, Luffy probably wishes he was back for another weekend! 10/10 would recommend to anyone!”
“Our dog Sunny loves going to Paulo’s house. Clearly, Paulo is taking very good care of him. We feel very comfortable going on trips knowing that Sunny is in such good hands.”
“Heath and Amy were amazing! Super flexible with all drop off and pickup needs, they have a lovely family that clearly love animals. Our dog was super happy to spend over a week with them which isn't super common as she is typically a bit nervous about new home environments. Not in this case, she made herself right at home thanks to their welcoming presence and their own pup was the perfect playmate. We will definitely be reaching out to them for future dogsitting needs.”
“I had never left our puppy with anyone but I needed to board her for a long weekend. Kris sent me updates and it was obvious that she was doing great. I definitely recommend him!”
“Clive loved staying with Chaun. In all the update she sent, he always looked like he was having the best time. I will definitely trust Clive with Chaun again in the future”
“We really enjoyed having Kelley and her family watch our Rickey Bobby. He came home happy! (And tired from all the fun!). Kelley even helped clean his ear as it was showing signs of a possible infection. She really cares for your dog!”
“We are so grateful for Liz and her family! This was our first time leaving our sweet puppy, so we were a bit nervous. Liz took care of our puppy like it was her own. Lots of snuggles, playtime, walks and adventures! Teddy made many new friends abc was a super happy puppy. We highly recommend Liz and will definitely have her take care of our puppy again.”

Kerian was fantastic! She took great care of my big Irish Wolfhound baby and taught him so many things! She was very patient and sent me lots of photos, videos and a great summary of things I could reinforce with him at home. It is always hard to leave a pup with someone and I’m so happy I chose her. She is very skilled, flexible, gentle and caring! I was hoping for him to be well cared for and I got this and so much more!
I am so grateful to have found Hannah, Spencer and their lovely pup Hazel to watch Hero when we are traveling. It was his second stay with this lovely family. I received regular updates and pictures from them which really helped me enjoy my vacation. Hero loves being with Hazel and always comes back happy and healthy. Thank you for loving Hero like your own and I sure hope that Hero gets to be with you again on our next vacation!
From our first meet and greet through his first stay with Dylan, our rambunctious adolescent boy Lowell was in excellent hands. Dylan kept Lowell busy and happy and kept us informed with frequent photos and videos. He even spent some time working through some training exercises! Since this was Lowell's first time with an unknown sitter, I was anxious. Dylan's calm and confident nature put me completely at ease. I feel confident that we'll reach out to Dylan whenever we need a sitter again.
Great communication, provided updates and pictures. Thanks so much for taking good care of my pup for 4 nights when I had a family emergency. He means so much to me and my kids. It was so helpful knowing he was left in good hands. I could tell you walked him a lot when they spelled out w.a.l.k in lieu of saying the word, he gets so excited. Apologies again for the text meant for my buddy…
We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Kendall! She was genuinely caring, attentive, and treated our dogs like her own. Her communication was top-notch—she kept us updated with clear check-ins and sent fantastic photos throughout, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, our dogs absolutely loved her! We will definitely be reaching out to her again.
Once again Teddy loved his stay with Morgan. Morgan went above and beyond when Teddy landed on a stick jumping around playing ball. Morgan took him to the vet and made sure he followed directions gave him all his meds and made him chicken, rice and vegetables. Thank you Morgan!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 West Haven-Sylvan home-away-from-home, 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 West Haven-Sylvan.
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 West Haven-Sylvan 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 , 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 .
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 OR 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.
