About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of experience volunteering with dog rescues, fostering dogs, and caring for pups of all personalities. I also founded a nonprofit dog rescue to help street dogs in India, so providing safe, loving care isn't just something I do, it's a big part of my life. I'm especially experienced with shy, fearful dogs and dogs with medical needs, so I understand the importance of patience, routine, and paying attention to the little things that help a dog feel secure. I welcome dog-friendly adult dogs into my home, where they'll be treated like family. Your pup will enjoy multiple walks each day, plenty of playtime and cuddles, lots of photo updates, and almost constant companionship. I mostly work from home with occasional outings of about 3 to 4 hours when necessary. My goal is for every dog to have their own little vacation while you're away, with plenty of love, enrichment, and personalized care, so you can relax knowing they're happy, safe, and well cared for. easily adapt to each dog's routine and individual needs. A typical day includes a walk first thing in the morning, another around lunchtime, one in the evening, and a final walk before bedtime. Dogs are fed twice a day (or according to their normal schedule), with lots of playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and potty breaks throughout the day. My goal is to keep your dog comfortable by maintaining a routine that's as close as possible to what they're used to at home. Every dog adjusts to a new environment differently, so I always let them set the pace. I give new dogs time to decompress, explore, and get comfortable without overwhelming them. Building trust comes first. I follow your dog's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. My home is calm, safe, and dog-friendly, and I closely supervise interactions to make sure every dog feels secure. My goal is to create a low-stress environment where your dog can relax, feel at home, and enjoy their stay.
“Kimberly was great! She took excellent care of Jax and made him feel right at home. I’m definitely looking forward to returning in the future and would highly recommend her to others.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a genuine passion for caring for pets. From my first kitten at age five to the dogs and cats I care for today, I’ve always believed pets are part of the family. I provide attentive, reliable care and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Dogs in my care receive daily walks, along with plenty of attention and personalized care. I work from home full-time so your pet will get lots of time and attention from me. I want you to feel at ease with me watching your animal. I have a fenced in patio and a nice big yard in the front that I can walk your dog on a leash for potty breaks. I also live across the street from a very nice large park where I am happy to take the dog for some playtime.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs (and a few cats!) for about 10 years now. I always treat the pets I watch as if they were my own! I’m on the UCSC track and cross country team which means I’m pretty active, so if your pet loves long walks or runs, I’m all about it!! I’ll be available in Livermore this Summer from June 28-August 2nd **Boarding & Day Care: I have 2 cats at home so only cat-friendly dogs please! I’ll be available in Santa Cruz starting August 17th! I’m a college student, so during the school year (August-June), outside of going to class, I’m home most of the time! That means I have plenty of time to give your pet lots of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I just recently adopted 2 kittens and have been loving getting to learn the adorable quirks of cats, so I’d absolutely love to look after your cats as well ☺️ When I visit your pet in your home, I ensure all instructions are followed, everything is all cleaned up, and your pet is happy & loved!
“Reeti and her family watched Sparky at their home daily for a week. I dropped sparky off in the morning and Picked him up in the evening and Reeti was annle to accommodate my early morning drop off time. I was worried because Sparky is wary about people outside the family and he became comfortable from the first day he stayed and it was great! Reeti sent photos that eased my mind and took sparky on walks and he now loves Reeti, her husband and children! I booked additional drop off and pick ups with her and now Sparky runs into their house without even looking back at me! He is so happy to be dropped off that I am beyond thankful and grateful for Reeti’s family for taking care of Sparky!”
“Shaka seemed to have a great day at Monisa and David’s house. She even got a nice brushing from Monisa! We feel so lucky to have gotten a referral to Monisa and David from one of their neighbors. We plan to try to book both day care and overnights with Monisa whenever they are available and we have the need. I’m learning they are VERY popular with other pup parents, so booking early is important. Thanks for a perfect first stay for Shaka!!”
“I needed some daycare help at the last min. Michelle responded instantly and Iroh was at her place in a couple of hours after our first message. She is very kind and loving and took care of him. He returned happy, well fed, and tired playing with her dogs and going to the park with her son. I'll definitely re-use her services and recommend her :) Thanks Michelle!”

“Thank you, Dear Cheridyn, Alfie had a great time, in fact, he would not come with us :) he was running back towards your home. Cheridyn is great, she is super accommodating and very sweet. She sent so many pics and videos she is amazing. I would definitely recommend her. Great place to trust with your fur babies. God bless Cheridyn & Gil for their work.”
“I wish we could have Irine as a forever sitter for Javy. She took the best care of him, providing playtime with her dog and 2 others she was sitting for. The pics and video showed what a fun time he was having, indoors & out. The next time we went to her house, Javy pranced right in, feeling right at home! If we lived in CA, we’d happily be a constant customer!”

About: Hi, I’m Cristal! Dogs have been a cherished part of my life for over 20 years and caring for them is truly one of my greatest joys. As a devoted dog mom myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved family member in someone else’s care. My goal is to provide a safe and loving home where every dog feels happy and cared for like a vacation for them too. My husband and I treat each pup like my own with plenty of playtime and cuddles. When your dog stays with us, they’re not just a guest they’re family❤️ I’m currently a stay at home mom with a sweet toddler and two friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, which means I’m home most days and able to provide lots of supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day. We have a large fenced yard where pups can safely run, play, and explore. They are welcome to come in and relax inside the house, stretch out on cozy beds, play with toys, and enjoy being part of our family’s daily routine. We also live next to a beautiful walking trail making it easy to give your pup plenty of exercise, fresh air and new smells to enjoy.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 2,819 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Altamont. 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 Altamont 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 2,819 sitters in Altamont, 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.
