“Elizabeth is very organized and great with pets! Our dog had a great time at her place. She kept updated every couple of hours on how he was doing as it was his first time with her. I would love to leave Pluto again with her!!”
About: I’m a cat mom currently working from home and would love for your pets to keep us company. With 15 years of experience caring for dogs and cats for friends, neighbors, and pets of my own, I’m familiar with routines—feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and showering your pet with lots of love and attention ❤️🐾 I have a 1-year-old British Shorthair, so I’m very familiar with cat care, litter box routines, and reading body language. I’ll send regular photo updates so you can relax while you’re away. I also speak Mandarin :) My schedule is flexible and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and boardings on weekdays and weekends, including mornings and evenings. I’m dependable with timing, quick to respond, and I’ll keep you updated throughout the visit. Safety comes first. I follow your instructions closely, keep pets secure on leash, and double-check doors and gates. I’m careful with feeding rules, routines, and home guidelines, and I keep your space tidy. I’ll send updates and contact you right away if anything seems off.
About: I have done pet care on Rover for about 3 years now, and cared for animals all across the spectrum. Dogs who need medication, cats, puppies, senior dogs, you name it. Before then, I was pet sitting for friends and family since I was a little kid. Now I want to make it my own thing! I am a recent college graduate with lots of time on my hands and energy to spend. I’d love to give your pet the love it deserves! I will do whatever is needed to care for your pet. I will follow any instructions that are needed and will make sure to do it with 110% of my effort! Your pet’s wellbeing is very important to me.
“Highly recommend Dylan! He’s local, super reliable, and great with my puppy, Olivia. He has two small dogs that Olivia absolutely loved playing with, which made her experience even better. It’s great to find a sitter where your pet gets both personal attention and social time.”
“First off: Although our past sitters have been good, we once used a sitter who had multiple dogs inside and outside the house (and who knows if there were other dogs, in other rooms). This made the house feel more like a kennel, than a home. ...Now, imagine getting not only an entire house, but also a whole family, looking after your one dog. This is what you get with Mike and Rachna. They want to do a good job, for one dog at a time. To me, that's a pretty good deal! I was treated with lots of pictures, and more importantly, with peace of mind. As a result, we--and my dog--all had a great time this past weekend.”
“We’re so grateful for the last minute help watching Kona! He had such a great time hanging out with Navneet and her dog. It’s clear he was well cared for and loved. He can’t wait for his next playdate!”
“Remi had a great time!!! I’m 9 months pregnant and had a baptism to go to. My dog had a biopsy done a week ago and needed to stay with someone. Sahaila even offered to pick him up to make things easier for me. Remi was walked and seemed so happy in the pictures that were sent!! He had a great time, thank you Sahaila!”
“Wish I could give 1000 stars or even more!!! Sarah and Nicholas are heaven sent. They live in a decent home in a very quiet and safe complex. Provided me photos and videos multiple times when I was biking in Angel Island. They give my pup seizure and thyroid pills as instructed and as a dog mom I could sense my dog was happy and had a wonderful time when I picked him up. Thank you so much Sarah and Nicholas. Looking forward to see you soon🥰🙏🏼🐶”
“We had a wonderful experience starting with our initial meet to Sunayana and her family welcoming Shelby( our gsd mix) to her home.She was welcomed and taken care of with patience.We appreciated timely updates and beautiful pictures.”
About: I have experience pet-sitting a variety of pets of all ages. I am able to care for dogs, birds, rodents, rabbits, and reptiles. I love all animals! Your pet's wellbeing, happiness, and healthiness is my number 1 priority. My pets are pampered and yours will be too in my care :) I work from home, so I am free to petsit all day long! I have a lot of yard space for dogs to roam and lounge around and I have space to care for several pets at a time. I currently have 3 pets myself (a French bulldog, a parrotlet, and a hamster). Daily dog walks are also a part of my routine. I keep a very clean home, but I have lots of places for dogs to cuddle up on couches or beds as well. I offer pet boarding, so I can watch your pet at my home. In my care, pets are never caged or crated. I allow them to roam free around my home and backyard. Dogs in my care are able to get regular walks and lots of love and cuddles. I am also able to watch birds, rodents, reptiles, and rabbits. I love absolutely all animals, although unfortunately I am unable to petsit cats for the safety of my other animals and because I often leave my door open for dogs to come in and out of the backyard as they please, and I wouldn't want to put your cat at risk. You can rest easy knowing that your pet will be in the absolute best care with me! My home is completely safe and spacious for your pets.
“We left our 4 month pup with Xue for daycare and she was extremely well looked after. Xue kept me posted through the day with photos, videos and updates on how my pup was doing. Very glad to have found Xue!”
“Shyamala saved us! We were visiting from out of town for the birth of our grandchild, and when the baby came a bit early, we were without care for our pup. Shyamala responded quickly and was able to keep Callie overnight on an emergeny basis. She was kind, professional, good with Callie and communicative. I am filled with gratitude and highly recommend Shyamala for all your doggie day care needs!”
“Houda & Fawzi and their lovely family were fantastic with Zoe (3yo pit bull). Their children are amazing with the dogs and there’s so much of their property to roam for Zoe. Zoe was exhausted, well fed and much loved when she came home. Thanks!”
About: I have grown up with dogs most of my life and have experience taking care of cats, rabbits, turtles, and fish. My experience with dogs includes: training, dog walking, and administering medication. I have a 5 1/2 year old mini double doodle named Kota and trained him myself. I pride myself on providing quality animal care and want to make sure your pet is safe and happy during their time with me. Currently I am taking a sabbatical and have plenty of time to take care of your pup! Depending on your preference and your dog's needs, I can provide plenty of physical activity and mental stimulation. I am happy to take care of your pet in your home and do daily walks. Please let me know if your pet is comfortable around other dogs. If they're not, I can easily leave my dog at home while I focus on your pet's needs.
The median cost per day for doggy day care in Blackhawk is $55

This was the first time Bella was left with a non-family sitter. Elizabeth was wonderful with Bella. Bella was happy at the end of each day and happy to return the next morning. Elizabeth provided updates and pictures each day. She was very sweet with Bella and is highly recommended.
Highly recommend Dylan! He’s local, super reliable, and great with my puppy, Olivia. He has two small dogs that Olivia absolutely loved playing with, which made her experience even better. It’s great to find a sitter where your pet gets both personal attention and social time.
Loving, caring, and warm environment. It was Kouna's first stay (daycare) with Rachna. Rachna explained that she would introduce her cats to Kouna in preparation for an upcoming overnight stay with Rachna. She sent photos and videos throughout the day and explained that there was a peaceful coexistence. I appreciate Rachna's calm demeanor which assured me that the meeting between Kouna and her two cats would go well. I am very picky about where Kouna stays and have no reservations whatsoever about him staying with Rachna.
Anna and Shudipto took excellent care of our 2 rambunctious dogs. They took the time to meet with us ahead of time so we would feel comfortable, which shows how much they care! The dogs were wagging their tails when they saw them again for daycare! 😊 Thank you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Blackhawk on Rover is $58.83 per day (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Blackhawk 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 5,678 sitters in Blackhawk, 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.
