About: Growing up with 5 dogs, 8 cats & a hamster, pet-sitting has always been a natural joy for me:) Going away for the week? I am happy to support your boarding needs! I am retired with 21 years military experience and now currently work from home, which gives me the opportunity for quality time with family and ample time to care for your pets! I offer boarding services only and have ample indoor and outdoor space for the support of your fur baby/babies :) Your pets needs are priority where it concerns indoor/outdoor care, feeding and overall communication with you until your joyful reunion. Looking forward to serving you!
“Meadow had SO MUCH FUN with Analisa for day care. I loved all of the pictures and videos and how communicative she was throughout the day. Meadow came home completely exhausted and went right to sleep.”
“Our pup, Louie had a great day with Shelby and Scott! We were searching for somewhere to leave our pup for our family raging waters trip and this turned out to be perfect! He came home so relaxed, happy and tired. Shelby and Scott seem super easy going, straight forward, and pleasant. We highly recommended and would book again!”
“Dennis was great! We had so many updates for Ozzy’s first doggy day care with Dennis. Our pup had a BLAST and came back so tired, we love it! We definitely will be a returning client !😊”
About: I have a lot of experience caring for animals and sitting. Working on training pets. I will let you know when I will have training available. I have an open schedule and plan on putting all my time until this for now. I live in the high desert in a gated community with a lot of land for pets to roam free. I also have a room available for them to be inside aswell. Live in a big house in a gated community. With enough space inside and outside for either type of pet. Will have a routine for pets.
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life! I grew up with my dog Molly who was part of my family for 14 years, so I understand the responsibility that goes into caring for a dog through all the stages of their life. I also volunteered at a dog shelter for about a year, where I walked dogs, cleaned their kennels, fed them, and of course spent plenty of time playing and cuddling with them! This gave me experience caring for dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve also fostered three kittens (at separate times) who needed medication and extra care. On top of that, I’ve cared for friends’ dogs both in their homes and mine. I’ve done everything from feeding and walks to drop-in visits and having dogs stay with me for extended periods of time. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love and care I’d want someone to give my own! My school schedule varies Monday through Thursday, but I’m usually home earlier on Mondays and Wednesdays. Tuesdays and Thursdays are my longer days, and I typically get home around 8 PM. I’m mostly free on weekends, which gives me plenty of time to spend with your pets! If I do need to step out for a little while, my mom or dad is usually home and can keep an eye on them. Whenever I’m caring for a dog, I do my best to be home with them for the majority of their stay. I make sure they’re fed according to their normal routine, get plenty of potty breaks and walks, and receive lots of attention throughout the day! I also understand that every pet has their own routine, so I’m happy to follow any feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, or other special care their owner provides.
“Oi was very responsible and communicated well. I was grateful for the quick response. My dog also seemed to enjoy being at her house, feel relaxed & comfortable! Thank you very much for taking care of Bella 😊”
“Michelle has been great to work with and Chloe came home happy. I get nervous leaving my puppy with someone, but she has been very supportive and helpful. I look forward to partnering with Michelle in socializing Chloe with other dogs and people. So far it has been great!”
“Adrian and Jovan are great! My nervous dog stayed with them a couple of days in a row while I was at work. She wasn’t happy about me leaving on the first day, but she clearly had a great time. On the second morning at drop off, she jumped excitedly out of the car and walked right into the house, barely even acknowledging that I was leaving. I could tell that she felt safe, comfortable, and happy with them. They clearly showered her with attention, and she had a great time zooming around the yard and playing fetch. I would absolutely have her stay with Adrian and Jovan again!”
“This is the second time we have used Brenda and we will not hesitate to use her in the future. Harriet is a rescue and she is slow to relax in new and unfamiliar settings. However, after each visit Harriet is quick to recover. We would recommend Brenda to everyone.”
“Karina was amazing with our dog Moon. She took him in last minute and took such grat care of him. This our first time using a dog service and we are booking Karina again. She gave us that piece of mind with text and pictures and any concerns we had with leaving our dog for the first time. 10/10 she is great.”
About: I have many years of experience with my own pets as well as others. I'm working with what makes me the happiest "dogs". I have been successful with basic training and can provide that service with drop-in's. I understand your dog is like a family member to you. Sometimes you just can't be there when you want to be. I will treat Him or Her with sincere kindness while still being firm. I can't wait to meet your furry family member. This is my full time job. Your dog will be the only non family furry friend here with myself and my husband who works from home. If I choose to have another client here (whom I believe would be a good fit) at any time during your dogs stay I will confirm with you first. We have one labradoodle who loves when furry friends come to visit. Your dog will have freedom to roam all areas except bedrooms. If they are staying overnight they will be crated next to us ONLY while we are sleeping. As a courtesy to my clients I will work on basic training as best I can if you ask me. I have been successful with my pets and clients dogs as well.

About: Hello my name is Vicente; but please feel free to call me Tony! I have always had dogs and cared for the dogs of my friends and family when they have been away. Last year I sadly lost my dogs due to old age and I am not ready to adopt a new dog. But I have a big house, live right next to a park and have all the time and love to give to pets when their parents are away. I have worked with puppies, pregnant, elderly dogs and dogs that need medication. I would love to provide amazing pet care while you are away! I can make sure you get pictures every day, that they enjoy inside and outdoor time, and go on walks at the park nearby! Currently, I spend full time taking care of my home and have all the time to spend with pets to provide all the care they need. My house is fenced and has a nice backyard with ample shade for any hot days. The inside of my home is gated off to the upstairs and has a big living room that pets care hang out in. I also live right behind a beautiful park and love to go walking everyday if I can around the park. My neighborhood is safe and calm! And we have great neighbors!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,335 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Big Pines. 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 Big Pines 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
