Pouneh is wonderful! From the beginning, she responded to my messages right away. We did an initial meet and greet at the local park. Nana immediately took to her and her daughters! I knew Nana would be happy and in good hands. Drop off and pick ups: I need to do an early drop off and it’s been super smooth. It’s easy to park in front and get Nana out safely and since we arranged that I send my ETA, Pouneh was already waiting outside ready to take her. Picking her up was also super easy. I texted ETA and she had everything ready with Nana. Again, parking was easy and available in front. Pouneh is very experienced and patient with dogs. She also has extra supplies like bowls, blankets, towels, leashes, etc., making it easier with less things to lug around. Nana looked so relaxed and happy when I picked her up that first day and each day since. I am happy to recommend Pouneh to anyone for doggie care and I will for sure rebook whenever I need an extra hand. Lastly, props to Rover as well. This is a great service and I don’t know what I’d do without it. I’ve always found great people here with sometimes short notice.

About: I have absolutely adored animals since I was a child. Turtles, hamsters, cats, and now dogs. I’ve never lived without a companion in my life. For the past few years I have watched my friends dogs numerous times, and my dog is very social and playful so she enjoys it every time! I take my dog out 3-4 times a day. Once in the morning, afternoon, evening, and the occasional night stroll. I work from home full-time and am able to provide ample attention to your fur baby as a result. I do not have a yard but I do have a few parks nearby as well as a quiet neighborhood area with plenty of grass.

About: I have years of hands-on multi-pet care experience, lived with two dogs, two rabbits, and two birds. I worked as a cat sitter over two years in the UK and built a base of repeat clients. I currently have a kitten of my own and actively practice positive reinforcement and basic training. I also have experience caring for a 21-year-old senior cat, including medication support and close monitoring of health and comfort. I’m reliable and attentive, and it would be such a pleasure to make your pet feel safe and at ease while you’re away. BTW, I’m also drawing quirky doodle style pet portrait for my clients!!! You can see my work in my pictures, and find out more at my TikTok @ poppy.fel5. Just let me know if you’re interested and I can deliver a customized pet portrait in 3 to 4 days! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available on weekdays and weekends, and flexible on schedule. I'm happy to cover all pet sitting related services, including but not limited to do litter box cleaning, feeding, cuddling, playing with them, gentle training reinforcement, etc. Please do let me know whatever services you might need :) I provide daily updates with photos, videos and notes to ensure timely communication.

My dog really loves Kimberlin. On the very first day when I picked up my dog from daycare, he went to Kimberlin and he was saying goodbye. He doesn’t usually do that to anybody especially on the first day of daycare. Kimberlin made sure that my dog was well taken cared of and she gave me updates throughout the day. Kimberlin is very gentle and kind to my dog. I highly recommend her and I am grateful that I found her.

About: I have a Samoyed x Standard Poodle at home, so I am very comfortable handling and caring for larger breeds! I have also cared for various dogs within my family so I are experienced with smaller dogs and different breeds. And since I work from home full time, you can expect frequent photo and video updates throughout the day so you always know your pup is happy and well looked after! I work from home full time, so your dog will never be left alone. Since I have our own dog, I already do two walks a day — so your pup will definitely be getting out and about! I have my own friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends — he gets along great with dogs of all sizes and breeds, so your pup will always have a playmate! I also have enrichment toys and lick mats on hand to keep them stimulated and entertained.

About: I know how incredibly hard it is to leave your beloved pet with someone else.I’m a pet parent too, and every time I travel, I know that little feeling in the pit of your stomach; the wondering if they’re okay, if they’re eating, if they’re happy, if they’re being loved the way you love them. And it’s not just your pets you’re trusting someone with. It’s also your home, your safe place. That’s why I care for every pet as if they were my own, and every home with the same respect and responsibility I’d want for mine. If your pet could choose their sitter, they’d probably pick someone who speaks their language, the language of belly rubs, patience, calm energy, and the occasional embarrassingly squeaky voice in public. Luckily for them… that’s me. My goal is simple: I want you to truly enjoy your time away, knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in caring hands. You’ll never have to wonder how they’re doing because I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos, videos, and little stories from our day together. Animals have been the biggest part of my life for over 18 years. Before moving to the U.S., I worked at a veterinary clinic in Poland, where I gained hands-on experience caring for animals and assisting with treatments. I’m also certified in dog training, and I genuinely love learning about animal behavior and understanding what each individual pet needs to feel safe and comfortable. At home, I’m the proud pet parent of one very spoiled Australian Shepherd, Bowie, and three rescue cats. They remind me every day that every animal is different, and that’s exactly what I love. Some dogs want long adventures, others just want a slow walk with plenty of time to sniff every blade of grass. Some cats will curl up in your lap the moment you arrive, while others need a little patience before deciding you’re worthy of their company. I’m happy to meet every pet exactly where they are. Through years of rescue work and fostering, I’ve also become comfortable administering medications, caring for shy or anxious pets, and noticing when something just doesn’t seem right. I intentionally keep my schedule balanced so every pet gets the time, attention, and genuine care they deserve. When I’m with your pet, they’re my priority. One of the most meaningful parts of this work is that every booking helps more than one animal. A portion of my earnings goes directly back into rescue work, helping foster kittens receive medical care and find the loving homes they deserve. 🐾 I know I’m not just caring for your pet, I’m caring for someone you love. And that’s a responsibility I’ll never take lightly. I have a pretty flexible schedule since I work as a photographer and also foster cats. That means I can usually accommodate mid-day visits, evenings, and even last-minute requests. I’m used to working around different routines and happy to be flexible to fit your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I’m calm, attentive, and very mindful of routines, doors, leashes, and home rules. With my background in fostering and veterinary care, I’m quick to notice changes in behavior or health and will always communicate clearly if anything feels off. I respect your home as much as your pet and aim to create a calm, low-stress environment where your animal feels safe and cared for — just like they would with you.

About: Having raised my own puppy and dogsat for friends with anxious pups, I'm well versed in how to provide for a pup's full time needs. I can also provide puppy training in house manners (for example: waiting patiently to be fed, waiting at doors, simple commands). My care and attention to my own puppy, Chef, is full time and I am super excited to share that with your pup. We can go on excursions or hang around the house or play fetch at the dogpark. Whatever your pup is up for. I have a fenced yard and a friendly pup for your pup(s) to play with! And if your pup doesn't want company for whatever reason, I have gates and crates to make sure they are safe and happy in their own space. Feel free to request photos/videos and check in anytime for updates.

About: I’ve always been someone who naturally loves being around animals. I grew up with two dogs in my family and later had my own cat, who was a huge part of my life. What I love most about pets is how they give back even more love when you show them love. Their pure trust, kindness, and affection mean so much to me. I enjoy spending time with them, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I understand that every pet is different—some want lots of attention and playtime, while others prefer their own space and a calm companion. As a pet owner, I completely understand the anxiety of leaving your loved one at home, and I want to help ease that worry. While I may not be the most professional sitter, I can guarantee that I will treat your pet the same way I would want my own to be treated—with patience, care, and genuine love. Your baby will definitely be in good hands with me. I work part-time as a project manager, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to spend with your pet and give them the attention they deserve. I have a yard for curious pets to explore, and I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood where almost every family seems to have a cat or dog! There are also nearby trails where I can take your dog for a run if they’re energetic, or simply enjoy a relaxing walk at their own pace. I currently don’t have any pets or kids at home, so my home is a quiet and comfortable space, especially for pets who may need a little extra time to adjust. Cats and dogs are absolutely welcome on the furniture and, of course, cuddles are always welcome! ❤️ I want your pet to feel at home and will treat them with the same care and love I would want for my own.

Archie came home relaxed and happy! We also received so many beautiful pictures and a video showing his time with Jason and Katie, which calmed this nervous mom’s anxiety about leaving Archie with anyone else. We’re so happy and relieved we found Katie and Jason, they are legitimate dog people! ♥️

For a 5 month old working dog breed, she was gracious in helping watch him while we had to go into the office. I appreciate her attention to detail and while Archer ate a leaf off one of her houseplants & chewed a rug :(, she was more concerned about his safety which I am grateful for. Thank you again, Bettina!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Belmont

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Belmont on Rover is $53.5 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,387 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Belmont. 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 Belmont 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 5,387 sitters in Belmont, 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.
