“Our pup had a great time with Dongjun and Minkoung! They sent us lots of photos of him and updates of him playing at the park and cuddling at home. Very easy and smooth stay. Highly recommend!”
“Tucker had a great time at Haley’s home so much so I was a little worried he wouldn’t want to come home!! Lol. Haley is amazing. She shared pictures 3x a day letting me know how Tucker was doing so I had no worries while my family and I vacationed. Haley works remotely from home and only takes 1 dog at a time, so you can guarantee your pup gets plenty of attention and is safe. She even sent Tucker home with a new duck plush toy. So thoughtful! Thank you Haley for taking such great care of our guy.”
“Victoria welcomed our 5 month old puppy lovingly and like her own baby! She gave twice a day updates and plenty of pictures which we loved. I also appreciate the 2 walks a day and the immediate responses!”
“We are so grateful to Jen and Anthony for the wonderful care they provide to Marley. They shower him with love and attention and send us wonderful photos. They are conscientious about following our instructions. Highly recommend!”

“Ruben had the best time at Whitney’s house! There were so many great dogs for him to play with all day long. He came back exhausted! Whitney was great about communication and following his schedule. She has A LOT of experience working w dogs, and it shows! Booking our next trip soon!!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals since childhood and bring over 10 years of experience pet-sitting for friends and family. My home includes a gentle 10-year-old Alaskan Klee Kai and two senior cats—all of whom are completely dog-friendly, non-reactive, and well-accustomed to hosting guest dogs in our home. Since I work from home full-time, I am always there to ensure your pup gets personalized attention, continuous supervision, and a calm, low-stress environment. I host only one guest dog at a time so your pet receives my undivided care. My household is calm, clean, and family-friendly. My school-aged daughters have grown up with pets and know how to interact gently and respect a dog’s personal space. For added peace of mind, my senior cats also have their own dedicated upstairs sanctuary. Indoor Comfort: On hot or inclement days, we relax indoors where guest dogs are welcome to lounge on the living room sofa (bedrooms remain pet-free zones).
“This was an incredible experience. She sent us videos and updates everyday. She had our dog for a week and he came back so happy. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and we will be connecting with her in the future!”
About: Hi there! I’m a stay-at-home mom, lifelong animal lover, and proud pet mom to 2 dogs of my own. 🐶🐶 I’ve been caring for pets for 20+ years, helping family and friends with their furry family members. I understand that pets are more than just animals—they’re family! My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away. I absolutely adore animals so our home is full of love, attention, and plenty of belly rubs! ❤️ We’re an animal-loving family and would be thrilled to welcome your pets into our lives. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, cuddles, companionship, or simply a cozy place to relax, I’m happy to provide personalized care based on their routine and personality. I’m also comfortable giving your pet the patience and space they need if they’re shy or take a little time to warm up. Why choose me? 🐾 20+ years of pet-care experience 🐾 Proud owner of 2 dogs 🐾 Stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule 🐾 Loving, attentive, and dependable 🐾 Your pet gets lots of attention and companionship 🐾 A family that genuinely loves animals I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your fur babies with the same love, patience, and care I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! 🐾❤️ Being a stay-at-home mom gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets. I am home throughout the majority of the day, which means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods of time. Our family loves having animals around, and pet sitting fits naturally into our daily routine. I’m able to provide plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, walks, and lots of love while keeping your pet comfortable and on their normal routine. 🐾 A Safe, Loving Home Away From Home My home is set up to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and part of the family. We have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air, play, and supervised outdoor time. We also have a dog door that allows dogs who are comfortable using one to go outside when they need a potty break or some time in the yard. I’m happy to keep your pet’s normal routine as much as possible, including regular meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and needs so they receive personalized care while you’re away. I also offer drop-in visits for pets who are more comfortable staying in their own home. During a visit, I can provide fresh food and water, potty breaks, playtime, walks, litter box care, and lots of attention and affection. I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pets are doing well. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re part of our family and want them to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while in my care. ❤️🐾
“Alexis and her family are super with Toby. From his very first visit, they treated him like he was a special friend, with lots of love and fun times!!! It's nice to know that he's in such good hands. Thanks, Alexis!”
“Amy and Justin are great! This is the second time we have used them and they always taken great care of our boy. We got daily photos and updates. Toby got to play with different dogs and was tired when he got home which tells us he had a good time.”
“Justice was a great sitter for our dog Archie! She has a lot of good experience with dogs, and made sure our boy was happy and safe. He had a lot of fun and was taken care of like he was her own dog. She sent lots of updates and communicated about his condition throughout his stay with her. Would recommend her to anybody!”
“Morgan was a great host for our dog when we needed someone at a short notice. She took great care of our dog including taking him out on a nice walk. I would definitely recommend her and use her again for a future appointment.”
“Olesia is the best cat caregiver ever! She loves cats so much and treated our kitty like her own. She sent many many pictures and updates which gave us confidence and helped us relax while on vacation. Her husband is wonderful, too. We feel very lucky to have found her and will be asking her to care for our kitty again very soon.”
“Tamara was a total blessing. My dog has separation anxiety and she gets it! So glad I found her as with my boy having such bad separation anxiety it is hard to go anywhere nit he just had his first overnight with her and I am so relieved as I am leaving in May for 10 days & I am so relieved to know my boy will be fine as he’s my special baby & so sweet!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Whitney
I had such a great experience with Michelle! She took such good care of Milo during his daycare stay, and I really appreciated how attentive, communicative, and thoughtful she was throughout the entire process. From the beginning, she was incredibly responsive and always quick to answer any questions or messages, which made coordinating everything so easy. While Milo was in her care, Michelle consistently sent photos, videos, and updates throughout the day. Which I appreciated being able to see what he was up to and how he was doing! It was reassuring to know he was in such good hands, and I could tell she genuinely cared about making sure he was comfortable, happy, and well looked after. I’m grateful to have found someone as dependable as Michelle. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their puppy or animal, and I’ll definitely be using her again whenever Milo needs care! Thank you again, Michelle, for taking such great care of him!
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.

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.
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 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.
