“Sure! Here’s a tailored version: Jess was amazing with my golden doodle! She kept me updated regularly with photos, and her kids were so sweet to my pup—they played together, even slept together, and made her feel right at home. I could tell from the start that my dog was in great hands. I’ll definitely be using Jess’s services again!”
“Eric was super communicative about drop off and pick up time. He agreed to do a meet up before the dates needed to doggy-sit, which was very nice of him. When I went to pick up my pet, he even gave some suggestion to help my baby eat more since she wasn't eating because of the unfamiliar environment.”
About: Pets have been a part of our family for 20 plus years. Each one has been a crucial part of our lives, teaching us how to care for one another with grace and admiration. We have raised pets from puppies and kittens all way to seniors. From walking great danes to feeding little cats, our family can care for loved ones no matter what special attention they may need. Our fenced in yard has plenty of space for playful puppies while our home is located near a beautiful bike path for lovely evening walks. Your pet will receive all the attention and support they need so you can rest assured they are safe and cared for. I am currently a stay at home dad with plenty of time to care for and play with pets. Once the kids are off to school our day will be filled with unforgettable fun and excitement here in beautiful Whittier California. Whether your dog prefers inside or outside, our home is a perfect fit. Our fenced in backyard has plenty of space for running and play. After some exercise your pet can relax on our extra large dog bed or even take their spot on our couch. If your pet just needs an afternoon walk, I have everyday experience walking dogs of all sizes. Safety and awareness are my top priorities while taking your dog on a stroll.
“I'd highly recommend Mel for dogsitting. He took such great care of Miko for four days and Mike also got along really well his dog Roxy. Surely we will ask him again for our needs of dogsitting next time!”
“Julie and Justin took such great care of our dog, Mia, while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. They kept us updated, sent photos, and made sure Mia was comfortable and well cared for the entire time. Mia can be a little shy at first, but she quickly warmed up to them, which says a lot. It was clear that they treated her like part of the family and genuinely cared about her well-being. We’re so grateful for their kindness and attention, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. Thank you, Julie and Justin, for taking such wonderful care of Mia!”
About: I’ve been a dog mom and caring for dogs for over 20 years. I also have lots of experience with rabbits and guinea pigs. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I’d love to give your pets a comfortable, caring place to stay while you’re away. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and breaks throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends and can accommodate different routines whenever possible. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family. I keep a close eye on them, make sure they’re comfortable and safe, and always follow the routine and instructions their family provides. I also understand that every pet has their own personality, so I give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable with me.

“Ozzy had so much fun staying with Ximena and her family. I would recommend her to all and will be coming back when needed. She sent us videos and pictures multiple times a day and knew our pup was in good hands.”
“Jassie was awesome! Our first meet was to get to know each other and for Teddy to be comfortable. I set everything up for his weekend stay with her and knowing her calm energy was everything I needed to feel confident leaving Teddy with Jassie! She was very responsive to my texts and asked all the questions for Teddys care. She let me know where she’ll be and for how long. She sent pictures and videos of Teddy resting and playing in the backyard! Would recommend Jassie to anyone in need of pet care!”
“We are so thankful we found Sabrina! She is excellent at communicating and meeting our dogs’ individual needs. Daisy and Gus enjoyed staying at her beautiful home with a fenced in yard. We will definitely call again for our next trip!”
“Chris was AMAZING! Throughout the whole process she made me feel so comfortable and was great at communicating. I received multiple pics throughout the day which made my day. She loved/took care of my pup as if he was her own. Will definitely book her again in the future and highly recommend her to everyone ?”
“Janet was so great with my high-energy german shepherd, Juno. She played all the favorites (fetch and tug) and gave my pup lots of cuddles. I could tell from the pictures that Juno was very happy and well taken care of. Thank you, Janet!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have had dogs in my life since I was 5 years old. I’ve cared for everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs, and I genuinely love spending time with them. Over the years, I’ve owned multiple dogs and have experience caring for up to 4 dogs at once. Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, feeding, or making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I currently work from home, so if your dog is staying with me, I’ll be home throughout the day to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship. If you’re booking dog walking or drop-in visits, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to stop by reliably and ensure your pet receives the care they need. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a quiet cul-de-sac in a townhome with a fully fenced private patio. My home is equipped with exterior security cameras, as well as an indoor camera that overlooks the main living area for added peace of mind. I enjoy taking dogs on walks through my quiet neighborhood, and there’s also a large fenced park nearby for exercise and play. If your dog is crate-trained, I’m happy to accommodate that routine, and I also have a spare room available if they would benefit from having their own quiet space to relax.
“What a wonderful experience for our little Captain and ourselves! We have never left our 10 yr old Chihuahua with anyone and could not take him with us on a short vacation. After finding Rover.com online and reviewing sitters in our area, I came across Patty and Kelly and reached out. They were quick to respond and set up an introductory meeting at their home. They were taking care of a few dogs when we arrived so we were able to see how they reacted. Their residence is extremely clean and the perfect playground and relaxing area for the dogs. I wanted to stay there, it was so beautiful and calming!! Captain felt right at home (normally nervous in new situations) and took to Patty and Kelly right away. They kept us updated during our vacation with texts, emails and phone calls, but not bothersome at all. When we came to get Captain, it almost appeared like he did not want to leave. LOL We will use them again when necessary and I know Captain will fee safe and loved while he is away from us. Thank you Patty and Kelly for such great care!”
About: I love animals and have experience taking care of pets for family and friends. I can feed them, walk them, play with them, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I am available all week. During these days I can spend quality time with pets, making sure they are fed, walked, comfortable, and well cared for. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep a clean environment, and give pets attention, patience, and lots of care.
“Jenni is the perfect dog sitter you could possibly have for your pet. Attentive, on time, communication is very easy. Yuki had a great time and I was always updated with pictures. I guess my baby got her busy as well. I would definitely get her services again and won’t hesitate at all. When I got my dog back she was all clean too. Jenni probably gave her a wipe down which shows that she really naturally cares about the dogs she sits for. 10 stars if I could!”
“Wonderful family to have watch your dog. Took well care of my dog. Treated my dog as their own. Showed lots of care and love. Highly recommended to watch your dog. Would have them watch my dog anytime I need another pet sitter. Updates daily with pictures and videos. Dogs get plenty of play time and attention. Wouldn't have anyone else watch my dog.”

Eric has taken care of my fur baby Jonah 3 times now and he again has gone above and beyond. It’s always difficult when we aren’t able to take our doggies with us when out of town but Eric makes sure Jonah is well taken care of. He sends multiple pictures and updates throughout the day. These always make me smile and I can see how much Eric treats Jonah like he’s part of his family. Eric not only takes extremely good care of him but also is supportive, kind and caring of me which is so very much appreciated.
Once again Jasmine (and her family!) did a fantastic job with Fenris. As a newer Rover user, I was nervous but she is always kind and patient with me. I am happy to leave my dog with her and even overnight, he was happy and well-adjusted by the time I came to pick him up the next day! Definitely planning to use Jasmin again!
My 16 year old dog boarded with Stephanie for 2 nights and I highly recommend her as a sitter. She gave Ralphie multiple walks and gave me updates on how everything was going. I felt my dog was very safe with her and her family. I will definitely be calling her next time we need to board him again.
Janet is an absolute incredible dog sitter for our pitty Marley! She sends pics and videos daily and each time we pick up Marley she makes a little arts and crafts design with his paw 🥹 her adult kids are great too bc they love Marley as well and love playing with him. We always feel at ease when we leave Marley with her for our family vacations. Will absolutely book her again!
Ani was amazing!! My dog, who has a lot of fear, warmed up so quick so I know she gave him the best care and was super gentle and patient with him! I struggle leaving him with new people but with Ani, I felt super at ease and she was super understanding and accommodating with everything he needed!
Many thanks Pom & James for your exceptional dog sitting for Diego. We are thankful and grateful for your attentiveness and care for Diego. You made us feel completely at ease while we were away, and it was clear that Diego was in great hands. We truly appreciate the updates and the genuine love you showed him. We look forward to booking with you again in the future! -Nancy & Rudy
Joonshik took absolutely amazing care of my dog Robin while I was away for a flight, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the start, he was incredibly kind, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. He sent regular photo updates that gave me so much peace of mind and made it easy to see that Robin was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. My dog is very attached to me, and I truly consider her one of my kids, and knowing she was in such wonderful hands made all the difference. Joonshik went above and beyond to make sure she felt safe and loved, and that meant everything to me. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring pet care. I will definitely be booking with him again in the future!
Eden was amazing with my dog Noori! She took such great care of her while I was away and kept me updated with photos and messages every day. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Noori was happy and comfortable in her home. You can really tell Eden loves animals and treats them like her own. I’d definitely book with her 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 Whittier 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 Whittier 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 Whittier.
<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 Whittier 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.

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 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.
