“Lainey loved her stay with Amanda! Amanda sent me lots of photos and kept in good communication. She took our dog out on walks and did lots of outside time with her. She was also flexible with pickup time for us!”
“Danielle is the best! She is friendly, kind & hospitable. We did a meet & greet a few days before my dog’s scheduled drop off. She welcomed us in her home with her dog and we got acquainted. Her home is cute and comfortable. Danielle was a great communicator and even sent me a couple of photos during my dogs stay with her which helped alleviate some of my kids apprehension about our dog being with a new sitter. I know my dog was under the best of care and we will definitely use her in the future. Highly recommended. 💕”
“For the first time, going out of town without our dogs was pleasurable because we were able to leave them with someone we trusted. Our two dogs took to Pam right away. She sent pictures to us every day of our babies. When we returned, though they were thrilled to see us, they clearly hated to leave Pam and her husband. We will not dread leaving town again without our dogs now that we have met Pam!♥️ ?”
“We are glad we found Logan in town! We needed a petsitter for the weekend, and Logan was available! She was great, took them on walks, send pictures and updates! We’d definitely recommend her for anyone who is looking for a pet sitter. Thank you Logan for the great care of our pets!”
“We couldn't have asked for a better person to watch our furbaby. Chico (8 month old puppy) can be a handful and she treated him with so much care, staying in communication with us throughout and sending pictures/updates too. It was his first time truly away from home or around multiple dogs at once and she set our minds at ease the entire time. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter whether it was for just a day or an extended stay.”
“Melissa took great care of our goldendoodle while we were away for a long weekend. She sent us pictures and kept us updated on how she was doing. She has so much space for her to run and play. Thank you Melissa!”
“I can’t express enough how much we appreciate the loving care Alyssa provided. I knew from the meet & greet that she was going to be the perfect sitter for us and she is! Very easy to communicate & work with, great updates with photos of our ? boy? She’s def our go-to puppy person!”
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful and loving care of our Noah 😃🙏🏻 he’s not the easiest puppy to care for, but they did a fantastic job caring for him and made sure he was happy and healthy throughout his stay. They sent thorough updates and pictures throughout his stay, which was greatly appreciated. I would love to book them again in the future and would highly recommend them. Thank you so much for making Noah’s experience a wonderful one!”
“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.”
“Elaine is an amazing, experienced sitter and knew just how to help Floyd feel comfortable and settle in for a short stay. I appreciate the great communication and frequent updates. 100% would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, caring environment for their animals.”
“Sandy was AMAZING and that’s an understatement. From start to finish she was very assuring. I had no worries leaving Charm in her care as she treated my pup like he was family. She gave updates often, and Charm was so happy to be spending time with her and her family. Not to mention Her backyard area is super cute. I will be using Sandy a lot!”
“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.”
About: I have worked at a doggy day care that serviced over a 100 dogs and 30 cats at a time. As a kennel tech, I took care of the animals. I played with them, gave them enrichment, training, ect. I have 1 year experience selling pet food. I learned a lot about dog and cat diets and food sources. Currently i'm available 24/7. This is what I do full time. So the animal will have 24/7 attention. Special circumstances will apply, weekend adventures or what not. Anytime is negotiable. Every animal will be treated as my own. Dogs will sleep in the house. We have 1 acre to run around on in the day. I'll be here all day.
“We are so relieved to have a smart, reliable family... to watch our Haru when we're away. They kept me updated throughout Haru’s stay. We highly recommend Mike and Patricia!”
“Lisa was awesome taking care of Cooper! Prompt communication, flexible when my plans changed a little bit, and Cooper definitely had fun staying with her. Wouldn’t hesitate to use her again in the future.”
About: Hi there! I’m Barr, a wife and mother with a lifelong love for animals. We have a sweet 15-year-old Jack Russell named Indie, and I honestly can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t have a pet. Animals have always been a huge part of our family, and our compassion for them is one of the reasons we chose a vegan lifestyle. I also worked as a veterinary assistant for two years, where I gained hands-on experience caring for pets and supporting their health and well-being. As a mom, I’m now looking to earn a little extra income while doing something that truly matters to me—spending time with and caring for animals. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I will treat your pets with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. This is one of the reasons why I wanted to start doing this and would be perfect for any spontaneous short or long trips! I have a spacious backyard, but unfortunately, it’s not fenced. To keep our dog, Indie, who is incredibly friendly with all animals, safe, I usually take them for three walks each day. We shower her with cuddles and treats from my husband, our baby girl and I each and every day ☺️
“This is my first timing using Rover and I couldn’t be happier with the service Yan provided. My dog is recovering from a neck wound and Yan took great care of her. Yan took her on long walk everyday and Beibei loved them! Will not hesitate to book Yan again!”
“Kimberlee is fantastic! Very patient with adolescent male dogs and welcoming of us into her home. She sent a few adorable photos of our pups cuddled up with her sweet dog Tank (who is also very patient with adolescent male dogs!). Highly recommend Kimberlee.”
“This was our first time having Sam care for our Cooper, and we couldn't be more grateful. It was such a comfort knowing he was in great hands while we enjoyed a short getaway. We came home to a happy, well-cared pup! Highly recommend Sam!”

Sienna provided a safe and loving environment for my three dogs. They were well cared for and enjoyed there time with Sienna. She sent pictures and updates which put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend Sienna as a pet sitter and will definitely use her as a dog sitter in the future.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Yankee Jims 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 Yankee Jims 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 Yankee Jims.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Yankee Jims. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Yankee Jims 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
