“I picked Diana to be my dog’s sitter after I read her reviews. The reviews was spot on with her updates and photos. My dog felt at home as she ran and explored her big yard. Diana is very easy to talk too and informative about dogs.”
“Location was perfect to accommodate a snowboard (Mt. High) and travel trip. Was able to drop off Daisy, hit the slopes, pick up, and head on my way. Eva communicated well and was prompt with text responses. All expectations were met. Great experience.”
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!

“Very friendly service, loved receiving continuous updates. The pictures and videos were keeping me at ease. My pup had so much fun when arriving home he was sleepy. Thank you Huina. ❤️”
“Needed a last minute sitter and she really came through! I don’t think my puppy wanted to leave, she had so much fun. Good communication, pictures, and I know my pup got plenty of love. Thank you so much :)”
“I am so grateful for Renae. She watches my dog twice a week and it gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good, caring hands. She takes him on hikes, plays with him, and genuinely cares about his well-being. He always looks so happy and sleeps so good after a day with her. It’s such a relief to know he is being loved when I’m not able to be with him.”
“The absolute best! I feel so comfortable leaving Gia with them and their dogs! They sent so many photos as it was my first time using a dog sitter and my girl came home happy and tired! I would love to come back in the future! Thanks for loving on and taking care of my girl.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have had both cats and dogs as part of my family for as long as I can remember. I was also an equestrian in my youth, which gave me an early appreciation for animals, their individual personalities, and the importance of patience and gentle, consistent care. I previously worked as an Adoption Counselor at the Humane Society, where I gained hands-on experience caring for animals with a wide variety of personalities and needs. I’m comfortable working with nervous, shy, anxious, and challenging dogs and cats, and I understand that every pet requires a different approach. I have a large 1/4 acre yard with a pool so there’s plenty of room to tire out pups and keep them busy. I also have experience administering medications, trimming nails, and handling routine pet-care needs. Most importantly, I’m patient and attentive and take the time to earn an animal’s trust. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work part time with a flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I’m available 7 days a week. When caring for pets in their own homes, my first priority is always their safety, comfort, and routine. I take the time to learn each pet’s individual habits, personality, and needs before their owner leaves. I’m careful to: * Follow feeding, medication, and care instructions exactly * Keep doors, gates, and windows securely closed * Make sure pets have fresh water and a safe, comfortable environment * Keep dogs safely leashed whenever outside and never leave them unattended in unsafe areas * Be especially attentive with nervous, shy, or anxious pets * Watch for changes in behavior, appetite, energy, or bathroom habits * Keep medications, food, household cleaners, and other potential hazards safely out of reach * Make sure cats remain safely indoors and that doors aren’t accidentally left open * Communicate with owners promptly if I notice anything unusual or concerning I treat every home and every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own animals. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Analisa was great with my dog and thoughtful as to how to introduce her to a new environment. She kept me updated and sent lots of pictures and videos. She is someone I feel completely comfortable entrusting my dog to.”
“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 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.
“I could tell during the meet and greet that Paul and Lisa are very kind and caring people who love dogs, and I was confident that my little Tula with separation axiety would be safe in their care. And on her first full day stay at Paul's, I could tell by the pics and texts from Paul that she was indeed safe and cared for! Plus, I was able to relax on my day away!”
About: I have fostered all types of animals and I use to live in a farm down in Norco. I have fostered dogs, cats and even rabbits. I always store an emergency kit for the animals that I foster. I have antibiotics, ear drops, antifungal cream and much more because I use to take care of animals that were abandoned and rescues. I am always prepared that’s why I have done cpr classes for animals that way if something happens I am well prepared. I am well trusted to take care of your pet because I treat all animals with compassion and lots of love. I will guarantee that I will make sure your pet is comfortable, well taken care of, and feel safe at all cost. I will most definitely love to equip with toys that way they are able to have fun and have time to exercise that way they are happy and healthy. I'd love to take care of your pet because I am experienced and love animals. If you have exotic animals I am also experienced to take care of them as well since I have taken care of all sorts of animals in the past. Thank you for taking the time to read!! I have a pretty flexible schedule I haven’t been able to pet sit for the past year because of the pandemic but I can’t wait to show all the animals the love that I have for them because each one deserves love! The way I take care of the pets I babysat was making sure I clip their nails that way they stay clean and groom them with a brush so that way they don’t shed too much and I love to train them with tricks and teaching them how to walk and ovey commands.
“A great day with Frank! We were so glad to use Frank again for our Stella. The moment she saw him at the door, her tail went wild with the wiggles! Thanks for taking such great care of our girl.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Big Pines
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 1,337 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.
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 1,337 sitters in Big Pines, 88% 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.
