“Cynthia was amazing. Willow came over for a meet and greet for an upcoming boarding and she got to meet one of her sweet Golden’s. I immediately felt comfortable with Cynthia after the meetup and she even accommodated a last minute daycare that same time and took Willow for the rest of the day. She sent so many videos and pictures throughout the day and took her on a coastal walk with her other dogs. Willow came back happy and tired. Cynthia went above and beyond and we are so excited to have Willow stay with her and her family in the future!”
“Sheena is amazing with Burt! I was impressed by her detailed questions to ensure she can provide the best care for our dog. She provided multiple updates and took cute pictures/videos of our fur baby too. Burt and I hope to be one of her regulars for a long time!”
“It is impossible to give a high enough review for Jayern!! She is a dog whisperer par excellence, clearly loves her work, gets to know each dog individually as well or better than their owners, is fantastic at communicating and takes incredible pics of our dog to boot!!!! Thank you Jayern!!”
“Tiffany is super communicative and flexible! Dallas seemed to enjoy his time staying with her and he seems tired out when we pick him up because she often walks him or takes him to the park. Would 100% recommend :)”

“We're ongoing clients of Gordon & Allison with multiple day sittings. We appreciate Gordon's patience with our senior dog and his sincere interest in wanting her to have a good experience in their home. He was kind in ensuring perishable food was kept chilled when our dog didn't finish her meal. We're so glad we found such trusted sitters.”
“YINGXIN was absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of my dog during day care. I could tell right away that my dog felt comfortable and happy in their home. YINGXIN was also very communicative, sending lovely updates and photos throughout the day, which gave me complete peace of mind. I’m so grateful for their warm and attentive care, and I would love to book with YINGXIN again. Highly recommended!”

About: 🏡 Home with grassy backyard walking distance to Mt. Davidson 👩🏻💻 Fully remote and hybrid schedules means your dog would rarely be alone! 🐶 Up to 2 dogs at a time (please don’t hesitate to reach out if you prefer your dog to be boarded alone - we are more than willing to accommodate this) Hi PAWSOME dog parents!! I grew up with my family’s 2 cats and 1 dog, and my husband and I have done cat sitting and dog boarding for several family friends. We are now hoping to expand that to more of you! I (Christine) currently work full time as a data scientist and my husband (Mark) is a software engineer and is fully remote. We have 2 young children who love interacting with dogs! We love spending our free time playing, taking pictures of, and hanging out with the pets we pet sit! I work on a hybrid schedule, going into the office 3 days a week and working from home the other 2 days. Mark works from home every day! If one of us isn’t home, the other is usually at home, so your dog would rarely be alone! We live in a single family home with a large grassy backyard in a quiet neighborhood. The dogs we have boarded love to run around, lay in the sun, and take regular potty breaks in our backyard! We love to walk and run around our neighborhood, frequently visiting Mt. Davidson, Twin Peaks, and Lake Merced! We love it even more when we get to bring dogs with us! NOTE 1: your dog must be crate trained. They may sleep in their crate at night in case of emergencies or at the owner’s request, but we normally allow dogs to sleep with us on the bed! NOTE 2: my parents come over with their 16 year old maltipoo (10 lbs) approximately 3 times a month, so your dog must be okay with other dogs and may meet my parents dog. NOTE 3: We currently board up to 2 dogs at the same time (if my parents’ dog is here, there may be 3 dogs max). If you prefer to have us board only your dog during the time you need, please don’t hesitate to reach out and we may be able to accommodate your dog. NOTE 4: we prefer small dogs, but can make exceptions for medium dogs (up to 30 lbs) on a case by case basis, so please don’t hesitate to reach out! NOTE 5: We don’t accept pee pad trained dogs. Your dog must be house trained. We have a fenced backyard and can let your dog out frequently for potty breaks. NOTE 6: Your dog must be good with young children and have had previous experience with or currently live with young children.
“Renee and Christopher are wonderful. My senior dog loves going to stay with them. They are loving and kind and accommodating to my dog’s eating needs. It is such a relief to know our dog Jeffrey is in good hands when we are away. They provide me with photos and anecdotes throughout the day.”
“Malcom was very professional and took care of Frodo, our Pembroke Welsh Corgi for two consecutive days as a day care service. He sent updates regularly and Frodo was super happy when we picked him up. I definitely recommend Malcom to anyone is looking a great service”
“Stephanie was reliable and communicative, providing regular updates and photos. Our Poppy had a wonderful time and was so well cared for. We’d definitely book with her again! Highly recommended!”
“This was our first time using Rover, we were nervous but Karen and Jeff were wonderful! I’m definitely a helicopter dog mom and they sent videos and photos throughout the day without me even asking. Provided so many updates ! Bullet looks forward to hanging out with Boba again!”
About: I have been a caregiver for animals for 16 years, I love animals as they bring joy to my family and myself. I enjoy giving walking, feeding, playing and giving them bubble baths. Treats are also a must!! I’m currently home full time, so your pet will have all the attention it needs and deserves. My day starts early so I can take all of the dogs on their morning walk. I have a fully fenced yard and 2 fury friends for your pet to play with safely. All animals sleep indoors and if crating is required that can be provided as well. I will be the sole caregiver giver of all pets.
About: Hi! I’m Emily, a lifelong dog lover who understands that every dog has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family member! Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for energetic dogs, puppies, and dogs that need a little extra patience and structure. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, reinforcing training, and providing plenty of exercise and enrichment. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. My goal is to care for every dog as if they were my own and make sure they come home happy, healthy, and well-loved. I work remotely most weekdays, so your dog won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Walks can be one-on-one or with my friendly puppy if your dog enjoys having a companion. On weekends, I have even more flexibility to spend quality time exercising, playing, or relaxing with your pup based on their energy level and routine. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large, securely fenced backyard for supervised play, and my friendly Shepsky puppy loves making new friends—especially active dogs who enjoy having a playmate. If your dog prefers their own space or needs downtime, I’m happy to separate them or crate them according to your instructions. My home is fully puppy-proofed, clean, and designed with dogs in mind, and I always take a patient, calm approach to help every dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home.
About: We have owned dogs most of our life and currently have a young Boxer/Doberman mix named Ruby. Training, exercise, and structure are a big part of our daily routine, so we are comfortable with energetic dogs, puppies, and reinforcing good habits. We pay attention to the details and treat every dog like they're my own. Pet care is already built into our day. My dog gets regular walks, playtime, and training sessions, so caring for another dog fits naturally into my routine. My wife, Miu and I work from home can provide plenty of attention throughout the day. In our house we have fenced yard and have a lots of space for playing inside too. We only host one dog at a time so we can give your dog plenty of attention, and care. We try to keep things as close to your dog's normal routine as possible. We will follow your instructions for feeding, exercise, medications, and sleeping arrangements, and we will send updates so you know how things are going. Our goal is to make your dog feel comfortable and make your time away stress-free.

My dog really enjoyed the day at Jayleen’s! In fact when I went to pick up, my dog was giving kisses to Jayern :) it was great! Jayern took the time and made the effort to do a proper meet and greet. Jayern explained what the day would be for the dogs, what are the ways in which the dogs are managed. The dogs get a lot of play time and outdoor time in the really big backyard. It is great!
My pup Hira spent a day with Varun. She seemed happy and relaxed. Varun and his fiancee were super pleasant and friendly. It was easy to book and they were flexible. I felt comfortable leaving my pup with them. This was Hira’s first stay with Varun. So glad I connected with him. We will definitely board Hira with them again. Highly recommend!
Adrian and his wife were great! Waffles had a really fun time with the other dogs in his house and Adrian always kept really close communication with me, sending me pictures and video updates of Waffles every couple of hours. Would send Waffles back anytime! Thanks again for the great stay!!
YINGXIN was absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of my dog during day care. I could tell right away that my dog felt comfortable and happy in their home. YINGXIN was also very communicative, sending lovely updates and photos throughout the day, which gave me complete peace of mind. I’m so grateful for their warm and attentive care, and I would love to book with YINGXIN again. Highly recommended!
We've had an amazing experience with Gordon and Allison. We have an anxious rescue pom with incontinence that's controlled via medication. She has to go potty more often than most pups due to her incontinence. We're always nervous about leaving her with other folks. When we did our initial meet and greet, Gordon shared their process with us and asked a lot of thoughtful questions to get to know us and Rose better. During her first few days and weeks with them, they paid close attention to her and shared details with us on how she was doing, which we truly appreciated. They're very easy going, communicative, and flexible. Rose has now been going to doggie daycare about twice a week (sometimes 3x) for a month and a half. She gets very excited to see Gordon, Allison, and family. She's never been this excited for doggie daycare or boarding. We're so happy that we've found someone who we can trust and who Rose truly enjoys being around. They truly care about Rose and it shows. I feel like it's rare to find someone who cares about your pet as much as you do. Thank you for treating Rose like family!
We had a wonderful experience Marie Elenore! She was available on very short notice for doggie day sitting and was incredibly responsive and flexible, including with our later pickup times. She sent us lots of photos and videos throughout the day. Most importantly, Archie seemed completely comfortable and happy with her home. We’d absolutely book with her again!
Vivian is super professional, organized and great with communication. She sent me a questionnaire to fill out beforehand to make sure all of my pup's needs were able to be met. Her resident dog Roman is a big sweetie whose playful energy matched my dog well. Vivian sent me photos and videos throughout the day of them playing together in their fenced-in backyard space and cuddling together in the dog bed area indoors. So glad my pup has made a friend!
Martin and Robert love dogs and took wonderful care of Poppy. They sent me a lot of updates and pictures and Poppy was so happy in all of them! They took her on 4 walks! Robert even sewed her favorite toy back together! Really wonderful couple and animal lovers — you can tell.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Daly City on Rover is $44.4 per day (as of September 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 Daly City 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 4,491 sitters in Daly City, 86% 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.
