“My pup had a wonderful day at the daycare with Sara. He played a lot with other dogs. Sara sent us a lot of pictures of our pup while at the daycare and kept us updated with his activities. This was her second time sitting our dog. We will definitely send our dog again to Sara’s.”
“Danielle and Austin were awesome. They were very communicative and made Ciri feel welcome to their home. They even gave her a treat for both of us at the end of the daycare. Would highly recommend them!”
About: I have two senior small dogs, and specialize in assisting older clientele with their needs. I also often dog sit two adult German Shepherds (+60 lbs each) - I love all pets and look forward to watching your pets. I’ve always had a knack with pets loving me too! I have an extremely flexible and can prioritize your needs in my schedule. I enjoy having the pups close, in my office during work and train them to be ready for "breaks," i.e. walks, and treats. I also like to give the dogs a job to do to make them feel special. I have a fenced yard which is small, but just right for dogs. I have several raised dog beds and umbrellas, so pets can sun bathe or enjoy the shade.
“Shelly was amazing and sent lots of pictures and videos of what a good time Wally had with her pups and at her home. She made him feel welcome and he was happy all day! Thanks Shelly !”
“Mal has had a confusing time because his alpha, my husband, died unexpectedly last week, and he's had to move house on top of it. He is a rescue and already had separation anxiety. But he had a great time with Sandra, playing with other dogs, with plenty of room to run around, and was he was happy and not insecure when I picked him up both days. Thank you Sandra! Thank you for loving animals!”
About: As a USMC veteran and lifelong dog owner, dogs have always been a big part of my life. I work from home full-time, which means your dog will have plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. 🐾 I am a dog adoption coach and volunteer dog handler with Labs and More Rescue in San Diego. Through my rescue work, I've gained experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. 🐾 My wife, Ellen, is a former Humane Law Enforcement Officer and lifelong animal lover. She has extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats and shares my passion for animal welfare. 🐾 Over the years, we've cared for dogs of many breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. We currently share our home with two rescue dogs and three indoor cats. 🐾 We know that every dog has different needs, routines, and comfort levels. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where your pet feels at home while you're away. Toby works from home full time, so your dog always has a real person present and engaged throughout the day. No empty houses, no lonely pups. Our yard is fully fenced and secure. Toby is home all day, so your dog is never unsupervised. We have First Aid and CPR training, and between Toby's work at Labs and More and Ellen's background in Humane Law Enforcement, your dog is in experienced hands from drop-off to pick-up.
“Sara was great; Everything was handled professionally and with care - a plus that she had her own dog to play with mine, which was important to me when booking; She even left mine with a toy to go - needless to say, my pup left happy with Sara’s care.”
“Loree is a wonderful dog sitter. My dog, Olive, is very stubborn when it comes to eating but Loree figured out what to do to help Olive eat. I absolutely trust her with my girl. Highly recommend to everyone who may need a sitter.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Camp Pendleton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 2,471 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Camp Pendleton. 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 Camp Pendleton 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 2,471 sitters in Camp Pendleton, 87% 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.
