“Virginia took the best care of our almost one year old Lab/pitbull puppy. She sent pics & videos & I can tell he was spoiled during his doggy vacation. Highly recommend for quality care and flexibility with drop off/pick up.”
“They've done it again! My little Miss Lemon was so happy when I picked her up, she went right by me. This was her second stay. I wish I could put into words, the difference in her. She's a timid rescue girl. It's just me and her at home. The interacting with other dogs and people has changed her so much. She's my baby and I've never left her. When she's there Lauren sends pictures and updates which is so comforting. I can see the happiness. She thrives there! I'm going to do my best to give her "sleep-overs" for a couple days a month. It's been so good for her. Thank y'all so much 🍋💙”
“Diego was wonderful for our needed long weekend get away. He immediately suggested a meet and greet, which I prefer for a first time stay. He is very detailed and genuinely interested in getting all the facts, tips, and tricks for our pup, Eire. He took her on daily walks, cuddled her, and sent photos while we were away. Diego was able to give Eire his full attention. Not to mention our pup was so happy and still wanting to play with Diego when we picked her up. We will be looking for Diego’s availability for future trips. Highly recommend!”
“Charmaine did a great job boarding our fur baby. She was very anxious about being away from home for a few nights. Charmaine even let her sleep with her and shared pics. Very sweet and caring.”
“Earl was great to work with! He is easy going and great with animals. He was flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely recommend this provider and we will surely be using him again in the future.”
“ My two Labradoodles stayrd the Memorial Day weekend with Marion Russo. They had a wonderful time playing with her and her dogs. When I brought them home they were relaxed and tired. I will use Marion's services whenever she is available. A great experience.”
“Arianna took care of our senior pug. She was very kind to him and considerate of his needs (for example not walking in the heat). She provided a lot of updates and photos as well. Will definitely book with her again.”
“Ana was absolutely amazing with my Goldendoodle! She took such great care of him, kept me updated, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well loved in her care. I would definitely trust Ana to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. Thank you so much, Ana!! :)”
About: Your paw! 🐾❤️When I needed a hand, I found your paw -Unknown Connecting with animals has always come so naturally to me. Dogs and cats fill a special place within us. My goal is to share that connection and pair it with 10 solid years of pet sitting so that pets and parents feel confident and comfortable. I offer doggo walking, boarding, day care, and transportation, and I am skilled in the administration of medicine. I am punctual, responsible, kind and easily provide loving care that meets all pets where they are. I always keep emergency contacts ready and communicate openly with you. I understand that finding and trusting the right pet sitter/walker can feel overwhelming! Your doggo deserves a safe and fun environment. I have a Doggo-proof, fun house with 2 huge yards! Whether your doggo digs active playtime, or seeks quiet companionship, I will have the tails all wagging! I have 2 doggos, ages 8 and 9. I love them to pieces. I can’t wait for the possibility of meeting yours! PS: Dogs are OF COURSE allowed on the bed, and couch. I couldn’t imagine life without it! PPS: I drop in cat visits, because: “"In ancient times cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this." I’m available: Monday: 8am-7pm Tuesday: 8am-7pm Wednesday: 8am-7pm Thursday: 8am-7pm Friday: 8am-6pm Weekends- by appointment only Holidays- by appointment only I have 2 large dog friendly fenced yards with plenty of room to play and explore. My house is 100% doggo friendly and centrally located in Santa Rosa!
“Leslie was a wonderful sitter for Lola. We have used her twice and she will continue to be our go-to whenever we're in Guernville. She has a great house perfect for dogs and she was incredibly easy going. Would highly recommend!”
About: I was a dog walker and pet sitter in college. Since then I’ve mostly pet sat for friends. Recently started working from home and am available for more regular sitting and walking. I have a cat and an elderly/special needs dog myself and have experience caring for all kinds. I well versed in medicating, and other special needs. I work from home with very flexible hours so I am fairly available during the week for drop ins, walks and boarding. I have some weekend availability also for overnights. As a pet owner myself I know how much we care for our animals and I understand the trust it takes putting their care in another’s hands. I take that responsibility, as well as their safety, wellbeing and comfort seriously. Whether in my home or yours, I’ll provide them with the utmost care and respect.
“Five stars * * * * *, Merrill has been wonderful, very easy to communicate with, trustworthy, responsive, and my dog feels very comfortable around her. I definitely feel like I can have peace of mind knowing my pup is well taken care of and in good hands. Highly recommend, and will book again.”
“Siarra was BEYOND accommodating and welcoming to my big 85 lb pup. She was also very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors which provided me great comfort. This was his 1st stay away from home during the last year and we were gone for 4 days. Siarra made Hershey's first interactions with other dogs at the dog park fun and exciting. She treated him as her own and you can't ask for more than that.”

About: I grew up with dogs and recently lost my best friend, a corgi, Teddy. As a long time dog-owner, I understand how much anxiety goes into leaving your dog with someone else. I will treat your dog/s as if they were my own. I have much experience with aging / elderly dogs and dogs with special needs (dogs with leash aggression, anxiety, allergies, and prosthetic limbs/wheel chairs). My goal is to get to know you and your dog, and provide tailored service to meet your wants and your furry loved one's needs. I am happy to provide updates and pictures of our time together too! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Please reach out if you have any additional questions for me! Thank you! I work from home, which allows for frequent walks, potty breaks and play time! Both the dogs and myself appreciate the breaks within the day! I have a fenced in yard and multiple ring cameras to ensure everyone's safety. Neighboring houses do not have dogs; it is a quiet and peaceful environment.
About: I am very intuitive, calm, and have a natural ability to connect with every dog that I meet. I take the time to learn each pup’s unique personality, routines, and quirks — whether that’s a favorite walking route, a special way they like to be greeted, or the toy that always gets their tail wagging. I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while their owners are away. My passion is to provide attentive, tailored care whether it's for walks or in-home care. I am a great communicator and will always provide updates as requested to put your mind at ease. Serving Sonoma and Marin County! I will update my availability regularly on the Rover calendar to ensure accuracy. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend and how I can be of service. I am reliable, trustworthy, and responsible so you can trust me to keep your place clean and safe, just like you left it or better as I love a clean home. I take great pride in being engaged and present with them whether we are on walks, hikes or just chilling out. I am attentive, compassionate, and loving so your four-legged friend will not just get a sitter, but a dog lover who will give them love and affection in my care. To ease the mind of pet parents, I am more than happy to send updates, pictures, or videos during my care. I want you to feel reassured that he/she is in good hands.

. Diego was truly a blessing. His kindness, gentleness, and genuine care for Hemi were evident from the start. Hemi returned to us happy, well-cared-for, and clearly comfortable. We would absolutely use Diego’s services again in the future and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate dog sitter..more pleased. Diego was truly a blessing.

We will never leave our golden fur-baby with anyone else. Diego is a dog professional- not just a student or other person needing extra money. Diego knows dog behavior. He understands both the canine's and his peoples' emotional needs. Received pics and updates daily. Responded to our golden's anxiety issues and made him feel safe and loved. He even came for a "meet and greet" prior to our trip. He immediately went down to his doggie level and just loved on our golden who was obviously smitten with him. He is just the best!!!

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 Whispering Pines 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 Whispering Pines.
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 Whispering Pines 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.
