“Deana was amazing with our Cattle Dog, Poncho! We couldn't be happier with her care. She has a wonderful, spacious property with plenty of open space for dogs to run and play. We felt completely comfortable leaving Poncho with her. Highly recommended—we'll definitely book with Deana again!”
“Anu did a great job with our Athena girl. Our baby was fresh post op from a broken hind leg and needed a little extra TLC, which she provided. She did a great job keeping us updated with texts, pictures, and video. Would highly recommend Anu to anyone. She is great!”
“Luffy and Heather are really close now. It’s so nice to see them bond! He gets super excited to see her and he clearly loves being around her and her family. We love Heather and would recommend her to anyone.”
About: I have extensive experience in providing comprehensive care for a variety of pets, including [list types of pets, e.g., dogs, cats, birds, etc.]. My approach to pet care is grounded in understanding each animal's unique needs and ensuring their well-being through consistent, compassionate, and informed care. I am available on weekends and all holidays. I can pet sit at my place or, if needed, go to your place as long as it's within 10 miles. I have a fenced backyard. My house is near parks and has lots of space. I grew up with dogs around me all the time. I am healthy, have a good personality, and can play and run with the dog.
“We are going on vacation soon and when our sitter fell through to come stay with our dogs I came to rover.com in hopes to find somome I could trust with my dogs. After reading the reviews I decided to contact Kathy. She has been very helpful and suggested I come over and meet her and see her home first. We also did a trial with my younger pup today to see how she would do at her house. Kathy has the perfect set up at her home and provided an update on our pup. I highly recommend her!”
About: After my wife and I bought our first home together, we adopted our first shelter dog, a shepherd husky mix named Roxy. Later we became a doodle household. We've laughed during puppy play and shed tears at the rainbow bridge. We've enjoyed how dogs mellow with age and medicated fur babies dealing with lymphoma and lung cancer. If you choose to book with us, your best friend will be our only guest while you're away. Our three friendly doodles will offer congenial pack hospitality. We'll welcome your dog with care and attention for a temporary family member. You get a substitute Pet Papa, and I get to spend time with your buddy, while earning a little extra income for gardening supplies and painting classes. It’s a Win-Win. Only one dog at a time for boarding and day care. We have a large, dog safe yard in a quiet gated community. We border open space. Since rabbits and squirrels sometimes visit, I suggest you include Leptospirosis in your updated vaccination portfolio.
About: Hello fur parents ! I have loved animals ever since I was a young child. I currently have 3 fur babies of my own and I wish I could have 100 more. That is why rover is perfect for a person like me. I have had my eldest for 20 years now and my youngest is 11/2. I know how hard it is to leave your babies home alone. I would love to help out and give them extra love. I can’t wait to meet your little furry loved ones. I currently work from home and I have a lot of flexibility and can make my own schedule. Im pretty open and will try to help the best I can. I have a big fenced yard with a dog run and also a doggy door for my dogs to go in and out as they please. They are allowed to cuddle on the couch and in the bed. At bed time they do enjoy to be in their crates in my bedroom. They get treats and rubs through out the day and follow my every move. They also love their little human brother.
“Great experience from start to finish. I love how attentive Magin was with all of my pups needs. She also sent updates, pictures, and videos throughout his entire stay that really helped being away from him. It was our first time leaving Jack with anyone and we were so happy he was cared for so well. Knowing he was enjoying his stay through pictures and videos was the best part of this experience. Thank you so much Magin!”
About: I’ve taken care dogs and cats since I was about 10, I’ve had beautiful experience with my own pets and helping sitter for relatives and friends pets as well. I currently have open flexible availability daily, I can adjust to your pet’s needed schedule as needed. I can give your pet the love and support needed daily.

“Rachelle was so nice an accommodating. She was so kind to accept our last minute booking and Tempi could not have been happier during her stay. We got Video Updates of Tempi and her new furfriends.”
“Marc was great with our dog. He provided us with pix and updates while he watched our Asher. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog.”
“Maggie must of had an awesome day! Because she came home and passed out. Thank you so much for the great care provided to her. I can't wait to have her over again. Thank you so much!”
About: My name is Carlos and caring for animals has always been a central part of my life and home. My wife and I share our household with two dogs, George the puggle and Charlie the pug, along with several rescue and foster cats. Because of this we are very familiar with managing a multi animal household, different temperaments, and routines that help pets feel calm and secure. I have experience caring for animals at many stages of life, from energetic puppies and kittens that need structure and guidance to senior pets that require medication, mobility support, and extra patience. Living in Antioch has also shown me how many animals come from difficult situations, which is why I approach pet care with a calm, structured, and compassionate mindset. I can assist with puppy and kitten development, senior pet care, medication administration, transportation for vet visits or outings, and basic grooming support. My wife and I are comfortable administering medications and maintaining feeding routines including weight management diets. I also regularly help care for rescue and foster animals, which has given me experience working with pets that need extra patience and reassurance. My goal is always to provide safe, attentive care so pet owners can feel confident their animals are in good hands. For the safety and well being of all animals involved, guardian type breeds require a Meet and Greet before any booking is accepted. Additional fees may apply for puppies under one year old and dogs over 60 lbs due to the additional supervision they often require. If your pet has behavioral challenges or comes from a difficult background, I am still happy to offer advice or guidance even if I am unable to accept the booking. I currently work remotely so I have plenty of availability throughout most days of the week and on weekends to look after any pet that requires care. We provide cage-less boarding where they would have their own space. We will never force them to mingle with our own pets but will encourage the socialism and play time with us.
About: I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats at home with my wife and I’ve worked in a boarding facility! I also have taken care of my friends 3 dogs on multiple occasions My day to day schedule involves managing and owning my own Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym, Payback Jiu Jitsu at 583 W 10th St Pittsburg, which is a short drive from my home to allow me to take car of any animal as long as I need to before working. My wife and I work together on taking care of pets, so if anything you’re getting double the care for the price of one! I like to make sure the pets are always taken care of and just aren’t cooped up in their crate all day. I’ll also play with them if they have high energy or work their mind to help tire them out! My wife is also a rover sitter who is regularly taking care of other fur babies so if your pet requires extra attention we make a good team to make sure your pet is well taken care of!
“Julia knows dogs. She is able to integrate a new dog in with her current group. She is the consummate "dog whisperer." They seem to listen and respond to what she says. My dog, Brie, loves going to Julia's. She is exhausted when she comes home and has a good workout with playtime. I highly recommend bringing your dog here. I trust Julia and am grateful that she is attentive to my pup.”
“Our dog always looks forward to staying with Sabrina. He lets us know the minute he gets out of the car. She does an amazing job looking after our special guy! She's one of the few people I trust with him.”

Deana was amazing with our Cattle Dog, Poncho! We couldn't be happier with her care. She has a wonderful, spacious property with plenty of open space for dogs to run and play. We felt completely comfortable leaving Poncho with her. Highly recommended—we'll definitely book with Deana again!
Natalie does an amazing job taking care of Audie, and he LOVES when she comes to pick him up. Audie gets super excited and gallops all around the house when she shows up. When Natalie dropped him off, he slept for two days, which is an amazing feat for his breed. Natalie is the best and most reliable pet sitter that I've ever had.
We had a great experience with Tracey as our sitter! She was very communicative as we had to coordinate two drop off and pickups over two days. Ahead of time, whe welcomed us into her home for a meet and greet with her pup, which was well set up for dog sitting. Our jindos are naturally suspicious of new people but she was very patient and earned their trust.
I am so happy I found Elizabeth. She is kind and took great care of my little scared girl Sassy. She has a beautiful gated home which was a must for me. She made sure to update me and was so happy to receive pictures. Will be re-booking her and highly recommend her for pet sitting.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Arbor is $39 per day as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $61 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,284 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Arbor. 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 Arbor 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 November 2026, there are 2,284 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
