“We (more importantly Cody) loved his time at Joyce's! We really appreciated the updates and pictures too throughout his stay! Cody seemed to have warmed up so quickly and had a blast! We are definitely going to rebook with Joyce!”
About: For nearly two decades, my neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets when they are away. I have extensive experience looking after dogs and cats of all ages and needs. Not only can I take your high-energy dog for a long walk or run, I will also slow things down to give your elderly pet the time and attention they need. I’m known for never refusing a belly rub and always loving your pets like my own. I am also happy to check up on aquarium dwellers (like my client who has goldfish!) I am a professional dancer and summer is the slow season, so I have flexible hours that can fit anyone’s busy day. I am available for daytime check-ins, walks, and daycare any day of the week. My schedule easily allows for pet pickups/drop offs and house sitting. I am home most of the day to keep your dog company. If I am out of the house it usually will only be for a couple hours and I have a very friendly dog who will comfort your dog in my absence. Because I am home most of the time, I can do exercise and potty breaks as frequently as you would like.
“Albert and Catherine were absolutely outstanding !! We truly can’t thank them enough for all of their kindness and amazing care for our dog Zene! They kept us updated with pictures and an absolutely incredible report card at the end of her stay! It was the nicest touch! Zene had so much fun and we are beyond grateful for their amazing care!! Thank you times a million!”
“Kept our hairless duo safe while we were away for the day housing our family. Messaged us through our the day to let us know how they were doing. Was clear on his end on everything and patient when we were delayed for pickup.”
“Kevin is a great puppy care taker. He is very responsive and sends progress photos throughout the day which is all a puppy parent can ask for. You can tell Kevin shows care for pets! Would recommend.”
“Happy that we were accommodated even though it was last minute. I got pictures of Nala & Nova playing outside and resting. I can tell Susan and Seo Kyung loves doggies!”
“He was truly a lifesaver. I needed someone last minute while visiting Los Angeles, and he responded very quickly, which was incredibly helpful and reassuring. He was immediately accommodating and even made time for a meet-and-greet on short notice. He cared for my dog on two separate days and kept me updated throughout with pictures, videos, and messages about how she was doing, including whether she had eaten. He also took her on frequent walks, which she clearly enjoyed. When I picked her up, she was happy to see me and then went straight to bed as soon as we got home, which told me she had a full and active day. He was also very flexible and accommodating with both drop-off and pick-up times. I truly appreciated his care, communication, and reliability, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
About: Hi there! I have long loved being a dog mom and thought to start sitting to give myself and my own dog some extra company and fun times. I can usually take up to two additional dogs to my own. If I am able to sit for your dog, I will be working from home. However, I am not available everyday. This is why I recommend planning in advance for my availability. I have a single family home with a fenced in dog run and patio for them to play in. They are free to be in the house and not be restricted in movements. However, I do not let pets on the furniture or beds. However doggy beds are available.
“Michael to the rescue!! Even with short notice, he was able to come through in sitting my girl for the day. Kind, respectful & communicated well through the whole exchange. Would book again!”
“Sylvia is the best!! Her home is a doggy dream with lots of comfy outdoor and covered space. Two lovely dogs that get along with mine great and I always get lots of updates about how everyone is doing together. My dog comes home happy and tired every week! Thank you ☺️☺️”
“I needed a dog sitter on very short notice, and I’m so glad I found Angelica! She was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we connected. Both of my dogs took to her right away, and when I picked them up, they kept going back to her to be pet and attention, that says it all! It's clear Angelica has a genuine love for animals and a special way with them. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: My husband and I had 4 dogs and many cats for over 15 years. Our baby Pomeranian was fifteen and passed away 2 months ago. I also rescue cats. I am home most of the time and can give your fur baby the attention they need. My time is very free. Weekday and weekends are ok for or me to take care of pets. Just let me know a couple hours beforehand. I live in a one level condo. I will take care of the pets at my house. We can take a walk in our pretty community. That's what I can provide.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for 8 years and grew up with dogs my whole life. I understand how important it is to find someone who will treat your dog with the same care, attention, and patience you would. Whether it’s a walk around the block or extra time for sniff breaks, I always make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I do freelance work from home so I have a flexible schedule Monday-Sunday. I’m able to care for your pet based on their needs and walking/feeding schedule. I have a fenced yard and a 9 yr old, medium dog (28lbs cocker Spanish mix) named Mia who’s very mellow. Your dog’s well-being is my priority. While you’re away, I create a calm, familiar environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I follow their routine closely, pay attention to what makes them feel comfortable, and ensure they stay happy and secure until you return. You can feel confident knowing your dog is receiving thoughtful, reliable care every step of the way.
“Very professional. Provided updates without me asking. I personally don’t need it knowing my dog is very well behave, but to have him go above and beyond was just amazing. I highly recommend Mark!”
“Another wonderful stay with Cindy and Jennifer! They always send pictures of Walter and I can see how happy and calm he is while he’s there. Thank you again for taking such good care of him! ❤️”
“Selien is a kind and gentle puppy sitter! Her place is magical for our puppy Ghibli! We felt at ease and Ghibli is so happy when she comes back from Selien’s place. When I pick her up, the way Ghibli’s says bye to her is how I can tell she loves Selien. I’m like chopped liver for a bit while Ghibli says goodbye lol”
“This is our fourth visit. Jake seems to have a better time every time he is with you. Jing also gave him a nice present for his 12th birthday, which was incredibly sweet. Thank you for loving Jake.”
About: I had a German Shepherd for 10 years and have also been taking care of my daughter’s cats and her Bernese Mountain Dog on weekdays for many years. I’m very caring and patient, with a lot of experience caring for pets. I’m currently a full-time pet sitter, so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups! I have extensive experience caring for pets, and I treat them like my own. I have a fenced backyard at my home where pets can play and run freely and safely! If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I will carefully follow all instructions to ensure their pups are well cared for.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Alhambra
Madison was a life safer after my sweet Hazel’s spay surgery. I was required to go to work on short notice the day after her surgery so not only was my pup not feeling great but she had never been left with anyone else or spent her day at an unfamiliar place. I was anxious about leaving her because she can be a pretty shy and nervous girl to begin with and she had already had a pretty traumatic day so as a dog mom, I was pretty worried how all that stress may show up in someone else’s home. Madison was very patient at drop off and aloud Hazel the time and space needed to be shy but curious and approached her gently. She sent immediate communication after I left to let me know how she was settling in and continued to provide pictures and updates throughout the day which was very appreciated and put my mind at ease. I felt confident Hazel was safe and being cared for just as well as she would be at home. Definitely keeping Madison in mind for any dog or cat sitting needs going forward.
Alvin was great! I appreciate that he accommodated me at the last minute and gave great tips and advice for my puppy who got along great with him. He sent several pics throughout the day. I will definitely be reaching out to Alvin again when I need a sitter or for overnight stays. I highly recommend him!
This was my second time using Steven’s services and he is always so communicative. I love that he’s constantly keeping me updated about my dog and sending pictures. It puts my mind at ease knowing he is in such good hands. Steven goes out of his way to accommodate my last minute requests and I appreciate it so much because it allows me to go to events without leaving my dog alone and full of anxiety. Thank you Steven!
Javey took excellent care of Penny. I could tell she had a very active day with his big dogs Panko and Boba because she slept hard when she got home. They are gentle giants, don’t let their size concern you. They are well behaved and so sweet. Javey kept in constant contact throughout the stay with photos and texts, so I knew she was fine the whole time.
You can tell Christina wants to do a great job in taking care of my puppy. Her and her family were such good company for my overly excited puppy, that now he’s calm and sleepy, coming home lol. She was good at giving me updates throughout the day, which I appreciated. Would definitely use her again if I need to.
Bingbing was super sweet and accommodating. She hosted a meet a greet before confirming booking to ensure my doggo Luna felt comfortable in her care. She has a nice big gated yard with plenty or grass and sunbathing space, and she made sure I brought my doggo some toys and a blanket and feeding instructions to make sure Luna could adjust as it was her first time in a doggy daycare setting. She sent me many many updates and candid Luna photos and videos throughout the day. Overall 10/10 all around. Hope to bring my baby back soon! She LOVED Bingbing 🤩!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Alhambra on Rover is $44.4 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

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 Alhambra 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 8,707 sitters in Alhambra, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
