“My dog had an awesome time! Dina sent me a picture to update me on how she was doing during the day which I appreciated. I will definitely be rebooking for daycare or boarding.”
About: Hello! My name is Ana! I can help with boarding, day care and dog training (basic obedience, behavioral modification, socialization, potty training, desensitization etc.) I love working with dogs and have been doing it for a long time. I live in a house with a lot of space for different activities. Whether your dog is crate trained, roams the house, has special needs or on medication I can adjust to your pup’s needs. I want to provide the best care for your animals while you’re away. You will receive plenty of picture updates and a happy pooch in the end. Please message me with any concerns or questions! Thank you! I work from home, therefore I have plenty of time dedicated to the pups staying in my care. I do dog sport competitions, so might not be available some weekends. Dogs are never left unattended! Temperaments are matched for play time and socialization. Overnight dogs stay in crates to ensure a calm and safe space for each pup.
“Melissa P. helped me out in a pinch after moving to the area, and it was great. Lots of updates and photos plus one happy puppy who was ready for a nap when he was picked up. Will absolutely be using again.”
“Adam is amazing. I liked the updates and how happy Baxter was when I picked him up he had a great day with Adam! I highly recommend! Thank you Adam for your professionalism and for being Baxter new best friend!”
“We just found a new home away from home for our baby Mochi! Emily is very nice, reliable and caring. Mochi is very happy and excited going into Emily’s place and will come back home very happy and relaxed. I am so happy to find a sitter/daycare where I can have a peace of mind knowing that my baby is safe and very well taken care of. Will definitely rebook and highly recommended.”

Many years experience as a dog sitter
About: I have grown up with dogs. The past 10+ years I have cared for other peoples dogs. I understand how uneasy people feel about leaving their pooch in a Kennel, simply because their dog is their world and they would rather have their dog have home comforts whilst you are apart. Married but we have no children so am able to offer a calm environment for those dogs that are mature or nervous of bangs and loud noises. Likewise I have the time and energy for those dogs that need a little more play time. I have a neutered schnoodle that is mature enough to chill but also enjoys a play. I work part time from home. So I am able to offer your pooch a lot of time and love, be it walks or just company. I have an enclosed, secure garden, mainly walled with gated access which is locked. It is completely private. It is not a large garden, but it certainly offers a dog enough space to stretch their legs, chase a ball or just chill on the patio.
“The house is so clean and well set up and the owner really loves the dogs she looks after. Thoroughly recommend Shahane and family for day care and drop offs. They are very flexible with time as well!”
“Brian has been great. He makes it easy to drop off & pick up. He keeps us updated during each of Brinley’s stays, by sending pictures, videos, and texts on how our fur puppy dog is doing.”

I stick to their usual routines—like feeding times, walks, and play—and always make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and care.

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND MELISSA!!!! We had such a good experience with Melissa! I was nervous about sending my baby to a new dog sitter but I was in constant communication with Melissa and she made me feel so comfortable! I received so many photos of my dog and was able to tell he was clearly content, comfortable, and loved Melissa! She also gave him his medicine 🤗 We would definitely book again!”

“Ilona has been great with our dog! She was recommended to us by a fellow dog parent and we’re very thankful for Ilona - she takes great care of our dog, sends us a detailed care information after each visit, and the kids are so good with our dog as well. Bonus that Ilona is close to our home! Her communication is quick and is flexible when our pick up and drop off times need to shift on short notice.”

Our Bailey had such a wonderful time with Montanna and her family 💖. We needed a last minute sitter and Montanna responded very quickly and graciously invited Bailey to spend the day with them. She sent updates and adorable pictures throughout the day as well. 1000% recommended Montanna!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Acton commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 4,704 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of CA. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
