“Nicolle took care of Riley for the day and they spent some time walking around the park. My conversation with Nicole was easy and she was very responsive. Riley got a long with her 11 year old Shih Tzu Zoey. Nicolle sent me multiple photos throughout the day.”
About: My goal for your dog while they are staying is for her to feel safe and comfortable. I am able to work with the routine your dog currently has and hopefully make her stay with me feel comfortable but also like a vacation. I’ve had my own dogs for over 15 years and understand how unique and special each one is. I’ve cared for senior dogs and most recently a puppy. I work from home during the week so your dog will have company. Depending on your dog’s exercise requirements, I am able to walk your dog before and after work and at lunch. On the weekends, I usually plan an outing such as a hiking, swimming, or visiting a local park. I have a 1 1/2 year old Labrador retriever who is extremely friendly and would love the company of another dog. I also have a cat. I have a fully fenced backyard for the dogs to play, relax in the sun and for easy bathroom breaks. I’d like to work with you to customize a plan for your dog’s care while she is staying with me
About: I’m an experienced veterinary assistant who loves the outdoors. I have been around animals my whole life and practiced my vet assistant skills by volunteering in Mexico at spay and neuter clinics. I will treat your dog or cat as if they were my own. I have my own vehicle and offer pick-ups/drop-offs. Your pet will be in great hands 😊 I work as the Events Manager at RED Mountain. The best part about this job is we are allowed to bring our dogs to work. I have a 1 year old black lab who comes most days as we go for lunch time walks with the other dogs onsite. I am an early riser, up for walks, always making sure your pet has ample outside time. My house is cozy and clean. I allow pets on my couch/bed, as long as that is the same treatment they get at home.
“We LOVED our time at Jessica’s! Hatcher was immediately considered family and went on all the best walks to sniff all the things on the trails. And when he wasn’t playing outside he was doing his favorite activity, snuggling!! Thank you and see you next winter!!!”
“Leigh-Ann came to our rescue last minute when our dog sitter plans fell through! She was kind and amazing with our 55 lb Aussie-Doodle. She sent us regular photo & text updates. He looked like he had a great time with Leigh-Ann and her sweet dog. We felt very comfortable and grateful leaving him with her. We highly recommend!”
About: I've cared for my family's 2 sheepadoodles for 8 years, and consistently watch a cute little chihuahua who loves to play frisbee. I don't have experience in dogs with special needs, but I do have a highly flexible schedule for people that need pet care. I work for myself at home, and can work from anywhere if need be. I love going for walks, and am happy to take your pet out any time of the day. I work completely from home and for myself, so I have no schedule constraints and am available most of the time. I am about as flexible as it gets! I don't have a fenced yard, so pets in my home go for a couple walks. If you have a fenced yard, I throw balls and frisbees till your pet can't go anymore!
“Super nice couple! Took care of my dog while on a ski trip. Even if my dog require a lot of outdoor time, he get her out multiple time during the day to make sure she's happy! Will definetly contact them again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
There are 15 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Fruitvale. About 83% of Fruitvale sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
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!
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 Fruitvale 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.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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.
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 BC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
