“Hanah and Dabin are the best daycare provider I have met so far. They are friendly, responsible, and punctual. They took our Peanut for walks multiple times a day and sent us lots of pictures and updates. I truly appreciate the care and attention they gave him. I’d strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy daycare provider.”

About: I've always adored dogs and have cared for them nearly my whole 50+ year life! From puppies to seniors. I work from home and LOVE to take walks with furry friends. I can fully care for them in my safe home or yours. I work 100% remote from my condo in San Clemente so I can take frequent breaks to care for your pup and also walk and play many times throughout the day. At night I devote great attention to pets because they make me so happy. My calendar is always up to date! I am very cautious and protective of my dogs; I will triple check safety and always care for your pet like he or she is my own.
About: What sets me apart is my 6 years of experience caring for dogs! 🐶💕 I also offer dog walking and love making sure every pup gets plenty of exercise, playtime, cuddles, and individual attention. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow each dog’s routine and needs. I treat every dog like family and always want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate plenty of time to dog walking, sitting, playtime, and giving each pet the attention they need. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so dog walking is something I genuinely look forward to. 🐶🐾 I’m also reliable and organized, and I make sure each pet’s routine and needs are a priority while they’re in my care. I care for every pet according to their individual needs and routine. 🐶💕 I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, plenty of exercise, playtime, and lots of attention and affection. For dog walking, I make sure each walk is safe and enjoyable while giving them the exercise they need. For pet sitting in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely and keep their home clean and their pet comfortable. I’m always attentive to their behavior and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owner is away. 🐾
About: I’ve been lucky enough to raise 2 Labradors and a Ragdoll cat from little babies to their senior years. Each of them had a very different personality, which taught me how to understand and care for pets based on their individual needs. I currently have a cat of my own and absolutely love being around animals. I’ll care for your pets with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. 🐶🐱❤️ I work full-time, but I have a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m fully available on Mondays and Tuesdays, and on my other days, I’m available before or after work. I’m happy to work around each pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of care, attention, and love. 🐾❤️ I always prioritize safety, comfort, cleanliness, and trust. I’m very detail-oriented when it comes to cleanliness and hygiene, so I make sure pets have a clean, healthy, and comfortable environment. I carefully follow each pet’s routine and individual needs, especially for shy or sensitive pets. In my client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and always keep things clean and secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾❤️
About: Hi everybody! My name is Bingbing but I go by Linda:) I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life(even before I was born!) and have years of hands on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities🐶 I currently have a puppy who I’ve personally cared for every day since he was 2.5 months old, so I’m very familiar with the extra attention, patience, routines, and supervision that puppies need. We also used to have a German Shepherd who I took care of, so I have experience with dogs of very different sizes and personalities! I’m definitely a “helicopter dog mom” with my own dog, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, eating and drinking, bathroom habits, energy levels, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. I know how stressful it can be to trust someone else with your dog, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely, keep you updated, and treat your dog with the same care and attention I’d want someone to give mine. I’m currently in college and taking mostly online classes, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m generally available after 10 AM and have plenty of time throughout the day to give your pet walks, playtime, attention, and care without feeling rushed. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and can stay in their normal routine. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, crate, and household instructions closely, and I’m very attentive to behavior, energy levels, bathroom habits, and anything that seems unusual. I also make sure doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings are secure at all times. I’m happy to send frequent photo and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Aliso Viejo
We are very grateful for Chris! He helped us immensely by picking up Ozzy from his board and train facility while we were out of town. He coordinated closely with us and made sure that he was on time and that the facility was expecting him. It took a lot off our shoulders to find out that Chris was able to offer this service and something that we will keep in mind that is very helpful for us. If for some reason our trip is delayed or something happens, and Ozzy needs to be picked up if we can’t make it in time. Chris takes the dogs on a pack walk when they stay over for Daycare, which we also really appreciate. We feel lucky to have found Chris and truly trust him with our dog.
Twix had such a great time with Claudia and her sweet dog, Wally! She took them to the park where twix had lots of fun, and kept us updated throughout the day with photos and messages. It was so reassuring to know Twix was having fun and being well cared for. We really appreciate all the attention she gave him. Highly recommended.
Summer was amazing! She watched my girls for the day while I was in town for something important, and having them in such a warm, welcoming home made everything so much easier. I’m not from the area, but from the moment we arrived I could tell my pups were comfortable and relaxed. My mom felt the exact same way. I really appreciated that Summer took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand — that always means so much when you’re leaving your dogs with someone new. And her sweet pup Meshi is the absolute cutest! All the little ladies got along great. If I’m ever back in the area, I will 100% book with Summer again. I’ve already referred her to my cousin too. Highly, highly recommend!
We feel very lucky to have found Priscilla. She was very attentive with our pup and it is clear she loves dogs. She gave us updates throughout the day and we could tell our pup was in very capable hands. We are looking forward to using her services again. Thank you!! 😊
Marisela was absolutely wonderful with Pepper! She kept us constantly updated with photos and messages, and it was so clear how loving, patient, and attentive she was with him. Pepper came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We felt completely at ease the whole time. Highly recommend Marisela and would definitely book with her again!
Alina is awesome! She took such good care of my sweet girl Honey when I needed last minute help while working away from home. She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and notes about how Honey was doing. She took her on multiple walks, and Honey acclimated to her very quickly. I would absolutely book her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Aliso Viejo on Rover is $44.4 per day (as of September 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 .
As of September 2026, there are 3,110 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Aliso Viejo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Aliso Viejo 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 3,110 sitters in Aliso Viejo, 88% 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.
