“Charlie has never stayed at a rover house before and he is 10 years old and very high maintenance. He had the best time at Achara’s house and we are so grateful to have found a place for him to stay. Her dogs are very friendly and gave Charlie his space to feel comfortable. He will definitely be back!”
“I cannot give Esther enough stars; we are so grateful that we met her through the app! She is the only person outside of my immediate family that I have trusted enough to watch my pups, in 7 years! I know when my puppy is with Esther, he will be given excellent care, be kept safe, and he will be very happy. Her updates/pictures are very prompt, and she is kind enough to be flexible with my schedule! Dre has stayed with her while I have been away for vacation and work, but I will also start dropping him off as a weekend treat since stay with Esther is like his little vacay ;). Thank you so much Esther, I appreciate your help very much! X.O.X.O”
“Grisel was amazing. She kept us updated constantly and made us feel very comfortable. Our dog looked like she had a great time and felt very comfortable there as well. Would absolutely reach out again when needed.”
“Alexandra is a very caring and excellent addition to our beloved Bellas extended care! She sent us detailed updates and pics of our baby daily. We were incredibly impressed that she was able to successfully groom Bella. Bella has a long history of not being welcomed back for groomers due to her defensive and aggressive nature for many years. Shes informative, patient and responds so well to our babys grooming needs. Alexandra was able to successfully groom her! Shes definitely a grooming gangster! We highly recommend Alexandra as your go to for everything care dog needs. We will continue to use her services in the future!”
“Annie is great! She’s so sweet and kind! She accommodated every need for my Bella and went above and beyond. Check ins were good and she even bathed my dog. She treated Bella like her own and for that, I’m thankful!”
“I needed a last minute sitter for my pup and luckily Martha accepted my request. She did a meet and greet the same day I submitted my request and asked a lot of questions about the care and schedule for my pup which made me feel reassured. During the stay Martha was very responsive and gave frequent updates with pictures and videos which I appreciated! When I picked up my pup she was very happy and healthy! I would definitely book again!”
“Kazue is everything you can ever ask for in a dog sitter. Very quick communication. Sends photos of my dog every morning, midday, and evening. She even folded my dog’s blanket and washed his bowls prior to me picking up my dog. She is absolutely wonderful!”
“I had concerns how my 5 year old rescued German Shepherd would adjust with the extended stay but Reginay handled him very professionally. She shared videos and kept us very informed which helped us extremely so we could enjoy our vacation. We are very glad we found her and know we can take future vacations with our boy being in good hands. Great Job Reginay!!!”
“Miya was AMAZING! This was my first time booking with her and was quick to do a meet & greet. Instantly I knew she would be great to watch my pups from the questions she asked. Throughout my pups stay she sent lots of pictures and videos which made me feel at ease. I truly feel like she treated my pups like they were her own. I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“She was very patient and kind with my dog Maple who is still figuring out her own routine. Constantly updated and asked questions to make sure that Maple was getting proper care and made her feel welcomed.”
“Patty is amazing. Very kind. Very thoughtful. And, truly loves dogs. She treated our pup with the highest of care and took excellent care of her. She’s responsive and extremely accommodating. We had some travel issues and she was very helpful and flexible. Can’t say enough about her. Looking forward to Kala staying with her again soon.”
“Took excellent care of my pup Mica! Lots of pictures throughout the day of Mica having a good time! Was very accommodating on drop off and pickup time which I greatly appreciated”
“Rosalinda was immediately receptive and responsive to my last minute request for dog sitting. I made the request 1hr before I needed to head out of town and she approved it! Relief! I also loved the my dog Tilly was able to play with 3 other dogs while she stayed with Rosalinda. And Rosalinda spent a few minutes with Tilly and I before I left to ensure Tilly and I felt settled in. Thank you, Rosalinda!”
“My regular sitter had to back out at the last minute and I was stressing out, but I'm very grateful to Marc and Rachael for accepting my 3 fur kids at the last minute. They sent me updates and pictures everyday, and I could tell that my dogs were very well cared for. Their house was a great environment for my doggies, and they did a great job with dogsitting them for a whole week. Highly recommended!”
About: Hello! My name is Morgan, and I’m an experienced dog mom and pet sitter with a lifelong love for animals. I grew up in the country surrounded by animals, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. During college, I fostered dogs and regularly pet sat, which is actually how I found my own dog, Tana. I’ve enjoyed it so much that we decided, why not expand to Rover? I truly believe that pets are apart of the family and I will care for your pup like they’re one of my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and cuddles! I have a very flexible schedule and am home everyday. This gives me plenty of time for walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and lots of attention. I’m also flexible for drop-ins, walks, pet sitting, and house sitting throughout the week. I treat every pet like they are my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, sleeping, and medication routine. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and will make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise!
“Roy had so much fun with all the other pups! They were amazing with communicating and being flexible! I appreciate y'all so much and will definitely be booking with you again! It’s such a relief to be able to leave my fur baby with reliable people!!”
“Katherine and Brulee welcomed our dog Moxie with open arms. I was glad to leave my dog with an experienced dog owner and their well behaved dog. Katherine did a great job meeting Moxie's needs with the added benefit of having a spacious backyard. Moxie was in good hands and we appreciate the help. Will definitely book again!”

This was the first time that I have left my senior girl since her life companion passed so I was extremely nervous, but Raissa was amazing and took extraordinary care of her. She was attentive, and sent me regular pictures, letting me know in detail what my dog was doing, and when she noticed she was a little nervous/anxious she went above and beyond. She addressed her needs by taking extra time outside, and adjusting her own schedule, treating her as one of her own. I am so grateful and I definitely highly recommend her.
Francesco was happy to work with our tight schedule. He met us at the dog park around the block from his apartment to get to know our dog. He provided excellent communication, pictures and updates, and Babette was a happy girl when we picked her up after two nights with Francesco. Highly recommended!
Achara took such good care of Mochi! She kept us updated throughout his stay, which we really appreciated. Mochi looked so happy, comfortable, and well cared for in all the updates she sent us. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Thank you so much, Achara, for taking such great care of our sweet Mochi! We would definitely book with you again. 🐶❤️
We had a last min chaotic wedding weekend and Rosalinda came to the rescue! She was reliable, flexible and easy to communicate with. She really helped me feel at ease to leave the pups with her. She was great at sending updates and videos and whenever I needed a little extra check in she quickly responded. Cerulean was happy and healthy when I returned for pick up! Rosalinda adapted well to my dogs and their different needs. Thanks again!!
Alex was amazing. Our dog is a rescue and she has been so scared around other humans and dogs. We've had a hard time getting her into pet hotels because she is too scared to even enter. Alex came over a few times and spent hours with her to get to know her. She has so much patience. Then we dropped our dog off for our out of state trip. Alex did so amazing taking care of her. She sent pictures and videos regularly. We were so relieved. Alex also helped socialize her to the point where our baby was best friends with both Alex and her dogs by the end. I can't recommend her enough.
Sunshine and Shannon have taken such great care of Lulu! They are kind, caring, and very communicative, always sending pictures and updates throughout the day. I can tell Lulu absolutely loves her time with them because she runs right to their front door when we arrive! 🐾 I feel completely comfortable leaving Lulu in their care and know she is being well loved and taken care of. We’re so happy we found them and would definitely recommend Sunshine and Shannon to anyone looking for a loving and trustworthy sitter!
Matt and his wife are amazing! I was leaving my German shepherd mix for the first time which made me nervous because he is so young and high energy. After leaving my dog with Matt I felt so much better, I felt reassured that my dog was in good hands. My dog got to play with other dogs and get his energy out and I received lots of photos and videos throughout the stay which made me feel so much better! I’m happy that I found a great dog sitter nearby who is also very affordable!! Would definitely recommend to anyone who’s nervous about leaving their dog for the first time!
We needed a last minute dog sitter for our labradoodle Brooke. Grace was very responsive and we are glad we found her as a new sitter. She sent daily updates and pictures, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Our dog had a great time going on walks and looked happy and well cared for. We will definitely book with Grace again!

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.
94% of sitters in West Sacramento 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 West Sacramento 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 West Sacramento.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Sacramento 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.
