“Qing was wonderful with our Truck. He is a bit nervous about new places and people but he did GREAT!! Typically, even though I take him his supper he does not eat it. At Qing's he actually ate his entire dinner - this means that he was super relaxed!! She sent many photos of Truck. He was actually smiling in a couple of them. We will definitely use her again if we have need.”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have years of hands-on experience caring for my own two dogs, along with dogs belonging to family and friends. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, or keeping up with their daily routine, I know how important consistency and patience are. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so my goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where your dog feels comfortable and cared for. I’ll treat your furry family member like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages along the way. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the day. My schedule allows for regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship. I’m available for dog walking, daycare, and overnight care. I understand how important it is for pets to stick to their routine, and I’ll do my best to make them feel comfortable, loved, and at home while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I provide a clean, loving, and supervised environment in my home where pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. During walks, I prioritize safety by using secure leashes, staying alert to our surroundings, and walking at a pace that’s comfortable for your dog. I’ll always follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions, and I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident your furry family member is in great hands.

About: Hi! Thank you for stopping by my profile. One of our favorite family hobbies is caring for pets. Every furry guest becomes part of our little family while they’re with us. 🐾❤️ I’d love to share a little about our home and why we truly enjoy taking care of pets. I grew up surrounded by cats and dogs, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. From Golden Retrievers to Dachshunds and German Shepherds—and of course cats—these wonderful companions have always been around me. After moving from Europe to the United States, I found myself missing the presence of furry friends. While living in Washington, DC, I started dog walking and cat sitting, and I continued caring for pets while living in Virginia. Now we’re in San Pedro, and I’m excited to keep providing loving and reliable care for pets in our community. We’re family living in a safe, gated community near Cabrillo Beach. My son is a wonderful little helper and is often the pets’ favorite because he gives them lots of attention, playtime, and love—and he’s always happy to share his bed for extra cuddles. He especially enjoys playing fetch with dogs at the dog park just a 3-minute walk from our home. 🐾 Your pet will enjoy plenty of play sessions, walks around our sunny neighborhood 🌴, as well as indoor and garden playtime. We also have a small yard where pets can relax during the day while I’m home. I provide multiple walks throughout the day, along with cuddles, brushing, and lots of attention to make sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and preferences so I can make their stay as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. 🐶🐱 I am very flexible. I am currently staying home with a flexible remote job. I can take care of your furry friend during weekdays and weekends with the same day notice. In both my home and my clients' homes, safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I ensure all potential hazards are removed and prioritize the pet's well-being. At clients' homes, I establish trust with the pet, familiarize myself with their routine, and follow any specific instructions provided. Communication with pet owners is key, and I ensure adherence to dietary and medical requirements. Overall, my goal is to create a nurturing environment where pets feel safe and cared for, whether they're in my home or their own.

She was gracious and understanding of his accidental poop on her carpet. 🥲🤪 Lai was fantastic. I would highly recommend her and leave our little one under her care in the future.”

About: I’ve taken care of primarily neighbors dogs, as well as one cat. One of the dogs I cared for lived to be almost 21 years old. I work part time, so I am usually able to fit dog and cat sitting into my schedule, and can watch them for up to a month. I have usually watched pets in my own home, though one of my most recent clients has had me watch her dog in her own home. My dog is usually friendly toward other dogs, and my cat is friendly as well.

About: For the first time in 23 years I am living without a dog. I have had anywhere from my last solo pup to a pack of 4. I have gone through training with previous dogs so have experience with commands and reactive walkers. I have done dog sitting in other people’s homes, in my own, as well as drop ins and walks. Most of all I love dogs and am not quite ready to adopt again, but would love to help you with yours! I work for myself from home so I have an extremely flexible schedule. I am available most days and times depending on what you need. I have a spacious apartment that your pet will have free range of. There is no fenced yard, but I am in a very walkable neighborhood with parks nearby. And if your dog likes the beach I am just a short distance to Huntington Dog Beach.

About: I bring over 35 years of hands-on pet care experience, having grown up with and cared for cats, dogs, and a wide range of animals throughout my life. I’ve raised and trained dogs, including puppies, and have extensive experience caring for cats both personally and for friends and neighbors. My daughter Coral, who is almost 14, lives with me. She has grown up around animals as well and has learned how to safely bathe, walk, and care for dogs through helping with her friends’ pets and our shared love for animals. We live in a safe, beautiful, dog-friendly coastal neighborhood just steps from the ocean and beach park, offering an ideal environment for walks, exercise, and calm outdoor time. Pets in our care receive consistent attention, affection, and a peaceful environment. Cats are also welcome in our care and can enjoy a calm, secure home environment with safe outdoor exposure if appropriate. Above all, we treat every animal like part of the family and focus on creating a stable, loving, and attentive experience where pets feel comfortable, understood, and cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily rhythm and is something I can consistently and reliably integrate throughout the week. Mornings are ideal for early walks and I’m available for overnights any day of the week. I work for myself from home and see clients throughout the day, which allows me to be present and attentive while still maintaining a flexible schedule. While I may step out for appointments, I’m generally home and able to check in regularly. Weekends offer even more flexibility and availability for extended stays, outings, and focused attention. This structure allows me to provide consistent, dependable care and companionship for pets. In our home, pets are treated like family and given a calm, structured, and loving environment with consistent attention, comfort, and supervision. We maintain a clean, safe space with routines that support each animal’s needs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, rest, and affection tailored to their personality. Because we live in a peaceful, walkable coastal neighborhood near the beach and parks, dogs receive enriching outdoor time and exercise in a safe environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize respecting their established routines to minimize stress and maintain stability. I follow all instructions closely, ensuring feeding, walking, medication, and comfort needs are met exactly as directed. I also provide calm companionship and regular updates so owners feel fully confident and connected while away. My focus is always on emotional safety, physical well-being, and creating a sense of trust and consistency for every animal in my care.

“Need to rant and rave about May and Zac. OMG so glad we selected their services. From the moment we communicated, we felt confidant with them. They expressed a level of care and attention a pet owner could only ask for. They went above and beyond. We dropped off our pup and we felt assured during the greeting. May followed up with updates during pups stay. What can we say, from start to finish, the experience was above and beyond our expectation. Looking forward to future visits!”

“Layla was very accommadting to our time and Maddie's specific needs as a young partially vaccinated puppy. Maddie got to play with Layla's older lab Jack and came home tired from a long day of play! Would definitely trust Layla with my baby again, I felt better leaving her while I was at work because I got pictures and videos throughout the day of Maddie my pup.”

“Tracy and Ryan took great care of our Molly. We got numerous photos of her through the day. She not only got walks but also outings which we would also do with her so it was great for her to feel like she had a similar routine. She seemed to feel comfortable enough to nap with them between walks and play time and their home was a great spot for some mid day sun bathing too! I would recommend them as dog sitters in the future and would love to use them again.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Avalon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 Avalon 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.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. Many sitters can respond to messages in under an hour.

To find the fastest available match, message multiple sitters with a recent "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

Don't let your 9-to-5 stop you from being a great pet parent. When you're heading to work, drop off your beloved pet with a loving dog sitter near you. Your dog will get the love and care they're used to at home, and you'll get photo updates and the peace of mind that comes from finding great care for your pet. We're proud to offer a wide range of pet care, including puppy day care and pet day care for all kinds of pets. We know you love your pets, but you can't always be there, which is where our loving sitters come in. Forget kennels, find a loving neighbor who will give your dog the one-on-one attention they deserve. That way, when you head to work, you know your dog's in good hands.
