We had such a wonderful experience! Shravistha was incredibly flexible with scheduling and always so accommodating. Both she and her husband took amazing care of Alfie and treated her like she was part of their own family. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. She always replied to my messages promptly and kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was obvious that Alfie was happy, comfortable, and truly well cared for. She is warm, kind, and genuinely loves dogs. Knowing Alfie was with her allowed us to completely relax while we were away. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!

I felt very lucky to find a sitter that would take my pup and Tannis (and her patient family) spent quality time with my girl. Her location was perfect for me, I picked up a very happy puppy, and I could not feel more confident leaving my sweet girl in her care. Thank you Tannis!

About: The most important part of understanding an animal is reading their body language and observing their behavior. They tell us very clearly what they're feeling/needing. Once they feel understood, safe and sense the loving vibe, everything is calm. I have been an animal lover all my life, with both cats and dogs in my home. I have a very friendly, playful 2 year old mixed-breed dog who gets along with every dog he's ever met. He's gentle with the little ones and seniors and adores finding a dog friend with similar energy to wrestle and run with. If your dog is social, mine will make yours feel right at home. I do not have a fixed schedule, so I am flexible and have time to watch and ensure that everyone is happy and getting along. I have a large fenced yard and am close to several good trails and beaches. Every day will be filled with a fun dog adventure.

Vicki was so great! The pup had such a good time there, and was wiped when I came to pick him up (which is always best case scenario). Vick was super understanding of me being an anxious puppy mom, and let me be there to greet all the dogs in the back yard with Soren. We will be back very soon! Thank you, Vicki!

About: Hi there! We are Allison and Tarun! We’re an active, reliable, dog-loving couple offering boarding and daycare in the Hillside area. What makes us a great fit: - Two attentive caregivers (lots of supervision & flexibility) - Active lifestyle with daily walks (trail access right outside our door) - Calm, structured home environment, with individualized care and attention A little about us: I previously worked at a dog daycare in Vancouver, where I gained hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages and temperaments, including high-energy and more reactive dogs. My partner of 11 years, Tarun is a life-long dog-lover and outdoor adventure seeker looking to explore more of the island. Tarun and I also had a husky together, Loki, who sadly passed away in September, we truly understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pup. We both genuinely miss having a dog around and we would love to be able to provide the same level of care and attention to your pup as we did with our Loki. Hope to hear from you soon, we'd love to meet you! I work part-time mostly in the evenings, while my partner works full-time during the day, so between the two of us there is almost always someone home. On the rare occasions we are both working, your dog would typically be alone for no more than three hours at a time. I’m home during the day and love getting outside as much as I can, so going on walks and spending time outdoors are a big part of the routine. My partner works at MEC and usually craves time outdoors when he's not at work and he's definitely been missing having a trail buddy! Dogs in our care can expect regular walks, fresh air, and plenty of love and attention. Overall, our schedule allows us to provide a balanced mix of activity, supervision, and downtime, and we’re happy to adapt to each dog’s specific needs and routine. Safety and comfort are a top priority in our home. We provide a calm, clean, and well-supervised environment where dogs can relax and feel at ease. Our space is open concept, which allows us to keep a close eye on dogs at all times. Dogs are welcome on the couch for cuddles if they would like, we also have a dog bed and blankets if they would prefer. We have rugs throughout the home to help prevent slipping, especially for senior dogs or those with mobility issues. Our flooring is durable and easy to clean, so we’re not concerned about the occasional mess and can focus on keeping your dog comfortable instead. Outdoor time is always supervised, and walks are done securely on leash. With trail access just steps from our door, your pup will get regular exercise in a safe and peaceful neighbourhood. With two of us at home, there’s always a high level of supervision, attention, and care so you can feel confident knowing your dog is safe, relaxed, and well looked after.

About: I currently have a Sphynx (high maintenance cat breed with very specific needs) so I’m comfortable with tailored routines, diet restrictions, and reading an animal’s particular quirks.. I also grew up with dogs (multiple Border Collies) so I know the energy and exercise they need too. Whether your pet wants constant attention, space, or a specific routine, I adjust to what actually works for them :) I am currently working part time, so I have free time in my week and would love to drop in and take care of your animal(s). Typically I work Thursday-Saturday or Sunday, but am happy to accommodate as best I can if you need support during those days. In your home, I stick closely to their feeding schedule, walks, and any specific instructions, staying attentive to their comfort in their own environment throughout each visit. *I have a cat in my home, (2 bd duplex house). I am happy to have your pet stay in my home if they’re patient/friendly towards cats and my cat gets along with them -would need to discuss/meet & greet prior to me hosting*

Finn and Kai were available for a same-day request to dogsit my Alaskan Malamute, and he came home happy as ever to have gotten to spend time with some lovely new friends! Finn and Kai were very receptive to my worries about my dog being an escape artist and somewhat reactive with other dogs. I would 110% request them to have my dog come hang out with them again should we need another sitter for him in the future :)

Kirsten and Guy and their sweet dog Rory are fabulous! They took such good care of KoKo while we had to attend a funeral. They were fabulous hosts and we really appreciate how accommodating, inviting and kind they both are. Rory is such a sweet boy and I know KoKo had a fabulous time getting to know their sweet pup. Can’t recommend them enough.

About: Hi! I’m Christy. Dogs have always been part of my life, and I truly can't imagine a home without them. There's something special about each and every dog, learning their unique personality, and making them feel safe and loved. As a lifelong dog owner, I know how difficult it can be to leave your pup with someone else. That's why I care for every dog as if they were my own. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and attention. I currently share my home with my friendly 10-year-old Cockapoo, Luna, who loves having canine visitors. My partner, Trevor, and I have both cared for dogs through Rover as well as for friends and family over the years, so your pup will be in experienced, caring hands. I work from home full-time, so your pup will have company for most of the day and won't be left alone for long periods. Walks are part of our daily routine, and we love visiting Clover Point and Dallas Road for fresh air, exercise, and lots of sniffing opportunities. Between walks, your dog will enjoy potty breaks, playtime, naps, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I'm also comfortable administering medications and following your dog's regular routine, so they experience as little disruption as possible. Your dog's safety and happiness are always my top priorities. We live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment with an elevator, making it accessible for dogs of all ages. Our balcony has an additional safety barrier installed, and access can be supervised or restricted depending on your dog's needs. Luna is a calm, friendly Cockapoo who gets along wonderfully with other dogs, making her a great companion for visiting pups. I'm naturally very organized and pay close attention to the little details—from feeding schedules and medications to potty routines and favourite sleeping spots. I know every dog is different, and I'm happy to follow their routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. As a dog owner myself, I also know how reassuring it is to receive updates while you're away. I love getting photos of Luna when I'm travelling, so I'll send regular photos and messages to keep you updated on all of your pup's adventures. If Trevor or I ever need to step out briefly, we also have indoor cameras so we can check in remotely and ensure everyone is safe and comfortable.

About: Hello! My name is Sarah Rose, and animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for pets since I had my first cat at three years old, and my current little Yorkie is the absolute love of my life. I’ve also shared my home and cared for a senior dog who had diabetes, cataracts, and became blind, so I’m very experienced and comfortable with senior dog care, administering medications, and managing all the routines and special attention that come with supporting aging pets. From 2014 to 2021, I was deeply involved in the dog rescue and rehabilitation community in Mexico, working hands-on with both cats and dogs of all personalities and backgrounds. I gained extensive experience in dog training, especially with larger breeds and more challenging cases, learning how to read canine body language and create safe, supportive environments for every animal. I know pets are family, and my approach is always to care for your pet as if they were my own: with warmth, attentiveness, and respect for their unique needs and routines. Whether your companion is a playful puppy, a shy rescue, or a senior needing medication and extra patience, you can trust me to provide responsible, compassionate care. I would love to meet your furry family member and help you feel at ease whenever you’re away. Please reach out if you have any questions or special instructions - I’m more than happy to accommodate all personalities, quirks, and care routines! As someone who works from home, I have a very flexible schedule and am almost always available to provide care and attention for your pets throughout the day. Taking my own dog for walks is truly the highlight of my day, and I love incorporating outdoor time and play into my routine. Because I’m home most of the time, I can offer plenty of companionship, regular check-ins, and a calm, reassuring presence for pets who need a little extra comfort or attention. Whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, day-care, or overnight care, I can easily adapt my day to fit your pet’s needs, ensuring they’re happy, safe, and well cared for no matter what. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of cozy spaces, regular supervision, and lots of love. I maintain a clean, secure space - removing any hazards and making sure pets are never left unattended outdoors. My own dog is gentle and well-socialized, and I always take the time to introduce pets slowly and ensure everyone feels safe and relaxed. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routines and instructions closely, respecting your space and your pet’s unique needs. I keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I am attentive to details, mindful of doors, gates, and feeding routines, and always prioritize gentle handling and positive reinforcement. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet as family: with patience, respect, and genuine care.

About: I have been working with dogs and training them for over a year. And animals in general for 10 years. My new love for life. I work from home so it fits perfectly. My 8 year old daughter loves all animals and helps out as well. When she is in school or when I take her to her fathers I will be out. Willing to have dogs in my car if they are okay in vehicles I have a fenced in yard and no other pets in the home currently. My focus will be solely on the animals I care for.

Suzanne was exceptionally patient and kind with our dog, and it was clear she genuinely cared about him and attended to his needs. She kept us updated with photos during his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog looked happy, relaxed, and really seemed to enjoy his time with her. We will definitely ask her to take care of him again when we come back to Victoria!

Our 2 dogs recently spent 2 days of daycare with Ramesh and Lauren. I immediately felt very comfortable as Ramesh was calm and friendly and not fazed by their initial separation anxiety. He was quick to respond and gave us updates and photos . I knew they were in good hands especially when on day 2 they went charging into his house .I would recommend them for your pets too.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Oak Bay

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Oak Bay on Rover is $38.85 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 .

There are 273 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Oak Bay. About 87% of Oak Bay 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 Oak Bay 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.
