“Alesya was wonderful and so kind! I felt comforted knowing Charm would be in her care for 3 days. Charm came back worn out! So I know he had a great time! Thank you Alesya!”
“Sarah (and her wonderful daughters) went above and beyond caring for our fur babies! Leaving your pets behind is always tough, but Sarah made it completely worry-free. She kept us in the loop the entire time and sent the sweetest photo updates that totally brightened our days. Our dogs absolutely adored her and her family—they looked so incredibly happy, relaxed, and loved in every single picture. It is such a relief to find a sitter who truly treats your pets like their own. Sarah is reliable, communicative, and exceptionally kind. We cannot recommend her highly effects and will definitely be booking her again!”
“Kelsey was amazing with our 1.5 year old doodle Leia. She clearly loves animals and treated Leia as one of her own dogs. Kelsey communicated throughout and sent updates and pictures during Leia’s stay. We will absolutely use her again next time!”
“Ruby watched my pup while I was away and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! From the very first interaction, she was professional, friendly, and eager to ensure my boy felt comfortable and safe in my absence. Throughout the time I was away,, Ruby provided regular updates, including photos and videos, which made me feel at ease and reassured that my pet was being well cared for. I would highly recommend Ruby to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter. I will certainly be booking again for my next trip!”
“This wonderful family took excellent care of Mia for a whole week while we were on vacation. They kept in touch regularly with texts and photos and it was clear that they cared for Mia as if she was their own.”
“Allie and her family were wonderful! I really appreciated the daily photos of Stella while we were gone. The communication was great. You can tell they love the doggos they care for, which makes it easier to leave your dog behind.”
“Jena and family provided very loving and attentive care of our dog Harper. They took her for walks, played with her, loved on her and were very understanding and persistent in encouraging Harper to eat (she is more into people and play than food). Jena provided photos often showing Harper’s time with them which we enjoyed and appreciated. I highly recommend Jena and would be happy to use her services again.”
“Christany and her family were an absolute delight! She was super accommodating and accepted my request just a few days before my trip and I was so grateful! She did an amazing job with my 2 year old frenchie, Wellington. He must’ve had a blast because he didn’t want to leave! Her children were amazing with him and gave him lots of attention and walks, and Christany did a great job of monitoring the dog/cat interactions to make sure everyone was safe which I greatly appreciated as my dog had never been around cats before. I can’t recommend Christany and her family enough! I seriously felt so at ease leaving my dog with her and received frequent photo and message updates during my trip. 1000/10 recommend!”
“This was my very first time using the Rover app, and Nicole completely exceeded my expectations! I was super nervous to leave my dog, but Nicole was so professional, warm, and attentive. The daily updates, photos & videos showed my dog was happy, fed, and perfectly cared for. If you want absolute peace of mind while you travel, hire her! 🫱🏼🫲🏽😊 I’ll definitely be bringing Milo back & I’m glad the boys got along so well 🥰!!”
“Coco took great care of our dog and cat! She is a hidden gem of a sitter. We have tried several sitters with 100+ reviews in the area (far more than Coco at the time of writing) and she is by far the best sitter. She was easy to communicate with, sent daily updates with lots of photos/videos focused on our pets, and genuinely took good care of our pets.”
“Gregory did a fantastic job watching Joey! He took great care of him and made me feel completely comfortable knowing Joey was in good hands while I was away. He was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about making sure Joey was happy and well taken care of. I would absolutely trust Gregory to watch Joey again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dependable and caring sitter!”
“Jennifer and her family took excellent care of our cat. It was our first time leaving him with a sitter but drop Off went well and the pictures and daily updates were very comforting. They treated him like one of their own. I think Tux was spoiled and we will not hesitate to book them in the future!”
“We loved Jen and Anthony! They were very flexible for the meet and greet, and I appreciate the constant communication leading up to and throughout the stay. Bear seemed to really enjoy herself and almost didn't want to leave, which rarely happens as she is an old grumpy gal at times. I love that they had dog-reactive experience from their previous pet, and it showed in how understanding they were to all the challenges of taking Bear out in public. We will absolutely return :)”
“Sandra is amazing, she took such a good care of our puppy, she is caring and definitely loves dogs! We would 100% recommend her and we'll use her services every time from now on. Thank you Sandra!”
“I appreciate the communication I received from Leslie throughout our first trial one night stay of my highly anxious, deaf, blind senior miniature pinscher. Leslie clearly has a lot of experience with high needs pets and her competence made me feel more comfortable about leaving my pet in her care. He was high maintenance this visit but Leslie took it all in stride and I’m happy she is willing to take him again in the future.”
“I worked with Michael for the first time this weekend and I’ll definitely use him again to watch my two dogs. He checked in several times and sent photo and video. Highly recommend!”
“Haley was very communicative and took excellent care of Tucker! He can be a handful and she assured me that she kept him out of trouble and sent me pics and updates throughout his stay. Tucker would definitely love to stay with Haley and he family again!”
“Michelle was amazing taking care our dog Luca, he had lots of fun and was treated like family. Very attentive sharing photos and updates. Highly recommended would definitely repeat.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Whitney
I have been searching for years for the perfect dog sitter for my doodle who gets separation anxiety. I stumbled across her and it was amazing. She was very communicative and my dog came home calm and relaxed. I highly recommend her. She truly loves dogs and will take care of your pet like it’s her own.
Breanna and Edward were absolutely wonderful with Jasper. Leaving him while we travel is never easy, but from the very beginning, they made us feel completely comfortable knowing he was in such good hands. They kept us updated with photos throughout his stay, and we loved being able to see Jasper settle in and make himself at home. He was enjoying his walks, relaxing in the sunshine, sleeping comfortably, and getting plenty of attention and belly rubs. Breanna and Edward went beyond simply taking care of Jasper. They took the time to get to know him and made sure he felt comfortable, happy, and loved. Seeing how relaxed and at home he was with them gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We are so grateful for the care they gave our boy. Finding people you truly trust with your dog means everything, and we would not hesitate to leave Jasper with Breanna and Edward again. We highly recommend them and feel very lucky to have found them. ❤️
Morris and I had a meet and greet with Karla. I liked her from the start. She is very friendly, personable and professional. She was very attentive to Morris's needs and asked pertinent questions. Karla sent me pictures of his stay and gave me up to date info on his status. Upon picking Morris up I could tell he liked Karla and I was very impressed and would use her again. I would also recommend her to others. .
I am so happy to have found Sarah and her lovely family. The second time they hosted Beverly, she jumped out of the car and ran into their home, excited to see them all. There's no better feeling than knowing that your baby is happy while you're traveling. Sarah sent photos and updates, went above and beyond, and clearly cared for Beverly as if she was her own. I can't recommend her highly enough!
Tracy was a great option for boarding our small dog. She coordinated a time to visit with her prior to the dates so we could meet her and for our dog to meet her dog. Throughout the stay Tracy sent us many photos and had great communication. We will use Tracy again soon.
Sheena is such a blessing. My two pups have a great time with her family and pup, Nala. They are happy, safe, and loved while we are away and I love the text updates Sheena sends as they put my heart at ease that all is good with our little furry family members.

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 Whitney 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 Whitney.
<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 Whitney 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.
