“Henry loves staying with a Hugh and Mary. He’s more active at their place than ours. They are always sending cute pictures of him being active. Great place for him. Wish we’re staying longer to use for all our time we are running errands.”
About: ✨ A little name note: My profile says Leslie, but everyone calls me Nicky! My home has a backyard and a designated dog run, giving dogs a safe space to get outside, stretch their legs, play, and enjoy some fresh air. I’ll treat your pet like part of the family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m very outdoorsy, so if your dog enjoys adventures, I’d love to take them along! Depending on their needs and your preferences, I can offer neighborhood walks, lake walks, hikes, and other outdoor activities. Of course, I’m just as happy caring for a pup who prefers relaxing at home and getting lots of attention. I have a 5 1/2 year old son that would love to give your pup some extra love if that is something you and your pup are okay with. If not, that’s totally okay and I can keep them separated. As far as the pets on furniture- we usually do not allow that. However, if you have a pet that is more comfortable and request it, I can make an exception. Your pet will get plenty of love, attention, and companionship while they’re with me! They’ll have lots of interaction, plenty of opportunities to enjoy our backyard and dog run, and lots of time to play or relax. My goal is for every pet in my care to feel happy, comfortable, and right at home. 🐾❤️ I have a fully fenced yard and a designated dog run, giving your dog plenty of secure outdoor space to play, exercise, and relax. We do NOT have any pets at home, so your pet will not have to share a space and it’s safety, comfort, and individual needs will always come first.
“Fantastic dog sitters and dog lovers. We could tell our dog Raya was super connected with Patricia and Rick, and super well taken care of with lots of walks and snuggles. They really cared about her as their own and shared heaps of pictures throughout the short stay. We also appreciated that it was a last minute booking and they were able to take Raya in. If you’re in Big Bear and need a sitter, please check this beautiful family’s availability!”
“Absolute sweet people to the core. just off brief interaction i felt i could trust them with our boy, of whom can be a bit nervous with new people. They had other dogs but our pup got along just great and came home super excited and happy and had a fantastic nap afterwards. Will definitely be looking for them to petsit again when we need”
“Amazing stay! we got pictures throughout the stay and our dog enjoyed it :) She was also very kind and accommodating to our schedule when we had to change the drop off/pickup times last minute. Will definitely trust her to keep our fur baby again!”
About: I am currently a dog bather, used to be a dog trainer and have experience with multiple dog breeds and temperaments, I know how to approach timid dogs as well as puppies or older dogs. I am currently a dog trainer so I know how to care for dogs and their individual needs. My current dog has a lot of different medical needs as well. Depending on what the animal needs are, I make a specific care plan for them and follow it exactly. If it works, why change it? We always want what’s best for pets.
“Bamboo, the 1.5 year old energetic pitbull, had a great time staying at Lacey's! She was tired out for a whole day afterward, indicating she had a lot of good play time. :-) Great communication, highly recommend! Thank you!”
“So glad Janeece was available to care for Indy! He can be a nervous fella on first visits but he was calm and at ease since the vibe was very caring! Highly recommend for all of your precious pals!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for my terrier, Laidy. She has severe separation anxiety and becomes very depressed when she's away from me, so leaving her for a week was something I was really worried about. From the moment Laidy arrived, it was clear she was in caring and capable hands. Savannah was incredibly diligent, observant, and compassionate. She paid close attention to Laidy's needs, made sure she got plenty of walks, and did an amazing job helping manage her anxiety. Most importantly, she gave Laidy so much love and attention that she truly felt at home. The updates and care she provided gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I'm beyond grateful for the kindness and dedication Savannah showed my dog. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like family.”
“Heather was awesome! My dog looked very happy the moment he arrived and when get got back he was tired from all the attention and activities he got to do! It was a safe and healthy environment that I would definitely recommend!”
“Thanks for sitting Kalea for a second time. We love you for taking good care of her. Enjoy Tahiti! Safe travels. I thought I would need a sitter. I forgot my sister-in-law is back from visiting her family. Be blessed.”
“Our Blue Bear had a great time with Caesar during his stay. He kept us updated with pictures during our Blue’s first time in the snow and he was quick to respond to questions we had. He was also very helpful with training tips to use with our 1 yr pup. I would definitely use Caesar again!”
“Thank you Melissa for taking very great care of our gur baby Hina. We appreciated the constant updates and pics sent to us letting us know Hina was ok. I would definitely recommend Melissa if you need someone to take care of your fur baby if you’re in the Big Bear Lake area!”
“Marinee and her family took fantastic care of our two pups! We were grateful to receive photos and updates while we were so far away. Our dogs came back happy and tired from their adventures. I would not hesitate to book again and would highly recommend. Thank you again!”
“Kelly, thank you so much for taking such good care of Doby. I can tell in your disposition how much you care about dogs/animals in general and concern for making sure Doby was safe and well. Your regular updates and great communication gave me great peace of mind during my trip. Thank you for going above and beyond with Doby! 🐕🐾”

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 Woodlands 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 Woodlands.
<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 Woodlands 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.
