“I recommend Lori as a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! My dog is strong and energetic, and Lori knew how to manage him, and was very kind and patient. She gave him lots of needed attention and kept me updated. I appreciate Lori so much for making me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands!”
“Stacy was great! She was able to take care of Emmett on a pretty short notice. She was extremely accommodating and took so many pictures of him. I think that this has been our first overall positive experience with a rover sitter. Emmett came back happy, healthy, and well fed. He had a lot of fun and was able to get a lot of fresh air.”
“Becca took great care of Ollie. She picked him up and dropped him off since we were out of town. It was his first time being away from an unfamiliar place. She assured us he was doing great and gave lots of videos and pictures along the way. Would highly recommend & will definitely be back :)”
“Our small puppy felt right at home here, and Maria was very accommodating. Highly recommend her especially if you have smaller dogs. Her dog seemed very friendly and welcoming to our pup. Thank you for working and communicating with us during his stay!”
“Agueda was a wonderful sitter and took great care of my pup! She sent updates and photos during the stay. My dog seemed relaxed and comfortable in her space. I absolutely recommend her and hope to see her again in the future!”
“Priscilla was amazing! Ollie had a great time and it was good knowing he was well taken care in their home. Def recommend! They have ample amount of space in their backyard for zoomies!”
About: I've loved and have taken care of dogs my whole life. I'm naturally curious about them and believe there is no such thing as a bad dog. I am working toward becoming a canine trainer and am currently under apprenticeship. Caring for dogs is very rewarding for me and a true passion of mine. My friends and family have sought me out for advice and to care for their pets and I would love the opportunity to care for yours as well. I have a flexible work schedule and am available for boarding 7 nights per week and for sitting every day. I can also pick up and drop off for an additional fee. I have a large fenced back yard (about 1/8 of an acre), with mixed concrete, dirt with shade. Your pup will be able to play inside and out, and will find it hard not to get along with my 8 year old Labradoodle, Maui.
“Absolutely wonderful people and the best communication I’ve had in all my years using Rover! I felt very comfortable leaving my babies with Jermere & Janetta; will definitely be booking again if my girls behaved themselves 😂❤️”
About: I have had pets for 17 years and so far I have 2 cats and 5 very friendly dogs. I know every behavior and jests at them or if they feel sick I am at home full time. The only time I go out is to go to the market and the occasional medical appointment. The rest of the time I will be caring for and raising your little loved one. My house has a secure fence, a yard to run around in. They will have fun meeting new friends. When they get tired they will sleep in a bed or blanket if they want.
About: Hello! I’m a Zoology student working toward becoming a veterinarian and a Military Conservation Agent veteran. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, including emergency care and working alongside veterinarians, and I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. With my background, I can also provide informed medical guidance when needed. I’m especially a great fit if your dog needs extra care—such as medical support or recovery monitoring. I can administer medications, closely track their condition, and offer cross-border vet services to Mexico, either accompanying you or independently taking your dog for care. My goal is to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. As a full-time student, I work around my class schedule and maintain a high level of flexibility. My only fixed commitments are my lab sessions, but outside of those times, I can adjust my availability to fit your needs, including early mornings, evenings, and most daytime hours. I have professional experience handling high-drive even dangerous animals, including wolfdogs and wildlife. I know how to manage strong breeds safely and calmly. I respect your home and property. I use professional handling techniques to ensure safety during walks, and I am fully capable of providing basic medical care and behavioral support if any issues arise during my stay."
“My dog was happy to be staying with Enrique . He was amazing taking care of chucky for me . Will be coming back to him . Very good at communicating . 5/5 * thanks ! :)”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a little girl. I have always had dogs around me. When I was a teen, I started dog sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood. This is something my dad and I would do together. As an adult, I am my friends’ and family’s go to person when it comes to help them with their pets. They will always call me when they go on vacations and need help. I am looking forward to expand my network of people I can help 🙂. Bonus is my own sweet little lady, Olive, who loves all dogs! She would be so happy to have new friends! I work from home part time. I am always home, and only go in and out to get my son from school. I walk my dog four times per day. Two of these four times per day are longer walks in the neighborhood or to the park. I keep dogs on the leash at all time when we are outside. I have a fenced backyard where they can be outside and lay in the sun, and can’t escape. They also have access to water and food as required by the owner. My dog Olive is super friendly, and loves being around other dogs. She is around 15 lbs. I have a cat who is friendly but does not want to do much with other dogs. He mostly stays away.
About: Hi, my name is Nancy and I have been an animal lover since I was a little girl. We had dogs, cats, rabbits, birds growing up. Interactions with animals comes instinctively. I was always asked to be the animal sitter for neighbors, friends and family. Currently, I spend time daily feeding feral/community cats. I also get them spayed/neutered. I have a soft spot in my heart for these homeless animals. Currently, I have plenty of free time to care for animals. I also love to dog walk. I lived on the same block as my older sister for 16 yrs and we use to walk our dogs every morning before going to work. My favorite cat Boots would also walk with us part of way! He was the best cat ever! I currently rent a house with a yard in Chula Vista. I have rescued many cats over the years. I currently own 10 cats that I have rescued. I have one mom cat that recently had kittens. I make sure my cats have fresh water, dry/wet food and treats. I previously owned my home and had dogs as well. Growing up, we always had pets. I am kind, compassionate, responsible and care deeply for animals. Taking care of animals would be fun and a good fit in my daily lifestyle.
“PeeP really seemed to enjoy his stay with Holger. We stayed in fairly recent contact and although PeeP tends to have separation anxiety. He showed no signs of it once we left.. I can certainly recommend Holger for any ones fur baby.”
About: Life long dog owner. Over forty years of experience with large active breeds. From rescue to training giving fur babies an active fun day. I currently have three well behaved German Shepherds that go on long daily walks on a leash or running free at dog beaches and hikes out in the open fields in Otay lakes. I have a large kennel and a back yard with plenty of room for a comfortable stay. I’m currently retired and have plenty of time to have fun with my dogs getting in different adventures daily. We enjoy long hikes to lakes or ponds and frequently go swimming at OB dog beach and fiesta island. Now that I’m retired I would like to dedicate myself to dog training. I have a fenced yard half the yard is a kennel but the kennel stays open for full yard to roam. My pups are usually following me around the house all day so I try to keep them active with training and hikes or long walks. For smaller indoor dogs I will provide a comfortable environment indoors with their own separate kennel to sleep in at night making sure they are pampered and spoiled. My dogs are very gentle and friendly and socialized around different size dogs their whole lives. They also have their own area that they like and stay in that can be secured for added safety.
“I loved Melinda, I don't trust anybody with my dog he is the closest thing I have to a child and she treated him as such. Normally people are scared of pit bulls but she welcomed him with open arms. I'd recommend her to any and everyone. Nice house, she walks them, takes pics, let you bring your own food and toys and does meet and greets and will tell you honestly, if she cannot watch your dog. Me and benny both give 4 thumbs up!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Chula Vista
Tiancai was wonderful! She helped me with Misha while we were visiting family in San Diego for my Uncle's services. I needed care on the spot, she was available and it worked out great. Tiancai's communication on Misha during her care was awesome and reassuring. Very sweet puppy sitter.
Stacy accepted our booking on short notice while we were in town. She was very caring with our pup and it was obvious she understands the unique needs and personality of each dog she cares for. Our pup had a blast and came back happy and tired. We highly recommend Stacy and will use her again if the need arises.
Chantel was absolutely amazing with my dog! She’s incredibly kind, attentive, and you can tell she genuinely loves what she does. She kept me updated frequently with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog was clearly well cared for and got so much love and attention. I would 100% recommend Chantel to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Priscilla is a fantastic dog sitter. Our pup loved spending time with her over the weekend and was visibly excited to see her again. She was also very flexible to pet sit in two different locations and stayed later upon last minute unplanned request. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
Bobbi had such a good time at Cherishs house! She got to meet all new types of animals and hang with some other pups too. Cherish was super responsive and sent tons of photos throughout the day so I felt comfortable. It is so relieving to know that I have a safe and fun place for Bobbi to be when I have to work long hours!
Heather was fantastic with Chief! She was warm, reliable, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. She took great care of him and made sure he felt comfortable and well loved during his time with her. We really appreciated her updates and could tell Chief was happy and relaxed. We’d absolutely book with Heather again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover sitter.
Kat is awesome! Very welcoming and sweet. She invited me to her home for a meet and greet prior to the appointment to make sure everything would run smoothly. I felt very comfortable leaving my little one in her care. She was quick to respond and provided images and details about P-Nut's stay. I will definitely be asking her to dog sit again. She is a natural dog mama, big and small. Thank you so much for your help!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Chula Vista 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 .

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 Chula Vista 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 3,164 sitters in Chula Vista, 85% 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.
