“Marie was so great with Winston! I could tell he immediately felt comfortable and safe with her! She also sent many updates so I knew how he was doing. I definitely will bring him back, thank you again Marie!”
“Genuine people in this world are truly rare treasure! We rescued Rocco from the SPCA and quickly realized he could not be left at home alone while we went to work. I found out about this app a few days later and downloaded it. We were SO nervous leaving Rocco with new people after we just got him, but at the meet and greet Rocco warmed up to Gordon and Allison quickly. My partner are I felt so reassured that Rocco would be safe and cared about. Gordon and Allison are truly the most kind human beings my partner and I have met in a really long time. We were so grateful to find them. They will absolutely take the care of your dog. They took the BEST pictures of Rocco during the day too! My work schedule changed and we no longer need their services. Give them a try, we absolutely loved them and you and your pup will too! 🐾❤️”
“This review is long overdue. Christoper has been watching my puppy three times a week since beginning of January. I feel as if it’s been for months but it’s only been a couple weeks. He is a great communicator and super responsive. He has such patience with my energetic puppy. He takes him and his dog on walks and has a great outdoor space for them to run around. He takes great notes and feedback on each visit and takes lots of fun pictures. I highly recommend Christopher. Anyone who can handle my 73 pound puppy is a superstar. Thank you Christopher!”
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.
“Irene was good with Mamba. It was Mambas first time and he was very anxious. Irene was very mindful and made sure to want she can to make sure Mamba was less anxious. She took him on a walk and gave him lots of attention.”
“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.”
“Couldn’t speak more highly of Tiffany. She was always on time and willing to work with me on my ever changing schedule. I could tell she really loved caring for my doggie. As my dog would often cry on the way home and jump for joy on the way there. If you need a dog setter that will care for your fur baby as much as you do yourself Tiffany is your best option. Would highly recommend!!!”
“Sheena is my go to dog sitter and boarder for my hyper active Boxer. She's very responsive, Ghost loves her, comes home exhausted and loves the company of her other boarders. She is great.”
“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”
“Amaru had a great time. Cynthia sent pictures, videos, and kept us updated throughout the day. She brought Amaru to his favorite place, Fort Funston! Amaru met new friends and had a great time! Thank you, again, Cynthia & family!”
About: ⭐️ Certified Pet CPR/First Aid ⭐️ Specialty: Senior Pets ⭐️ Updates with photos and videos ⭐️ Personalized Activity Form Hi, I'm Celeste! 🩵 I'm an Anthropology student at San Francisco State University, and a volunteer at the California Academy of Sciences. I've loved animals my entire life and believe every pet deserves kindness, patience, and respect. My studies and volunteer work have deepened my appreciation for animals and conservation. I provide safe, attentive, and compassionate care to each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, an energetic adult, or a senior needing gentle care, I'll follow their routine carefully and treat them like family while you're away. 🩷 Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I currently have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time to each pet I care for. Beginning in late August, I'll be attending San Francisco State University, but I've arranged my class schedule to maintain availability throughout the week. I prioritize reliability, punctuality, and consistent communication, ensuring every pet receives the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I'll always keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind while you're away. 🐾 I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I share my home with two young cats, one senior cat with a disability, and one senior dog, so I understand that every pet has unique needs. My pets are friendly and well-socialized, and I have a secure yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll follow their routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection. I'm Pet CPR and First Aid certified through the American Red Cross and have experience providing patient, gentle care to senior and special-needs pets. I'll also send regular updates and photos, so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. ✨
“Julley is very caring with my dogs. She kept us updated with all their activities. Thank you for accommodating Piper and Luna for such a short notice! Looking forward to booking with you again.”
“Karen and Jeff were great! They were very welcoming of Macey even though she's still a puppy. They seem to keep Macey active and engaged with walks and playtime. Their own dog seemed to accept Macey as the day went on. Macey napped and ate well there. They kept me informed with photos and notes. Macey and I both felt comfortable with Karen and Jeff.”
About: I've owned dogs most of my life and currently have a young Boxer/Doberman mix named Ruby. Training, exercise, and structure are a big part of our daily routine, so I'm comfortable with energetic dogs, puppies, and reinforcing good habits. I pay attention to the details and treat every dog like they're my own. Pet care is already built into my day. My dog gets regular walks, playtime, and training sessions, so caring for another dog fits naturally into my routine. I work from home and can provide plenty of attention throughout the day. In my house I have fenced yard and have a lots of space for playing inside too. I only host one dog at a time so I can give your dog plenty of attention, and care. I try to keep things as close to your dog's normal routine as possible. I'll follow your instructions for feeding, exercise, medications, and sleeping arrangements, and I'll send updates so you know how things are going. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable and make your time away stress-free.
“Super sweet and accommodating. My vet canceled an appointment last min and they had availability at another location that day. She was able to drop him off and pick him up especially since I was going away for the weekend and really needed him to be see. By the vet. Pluto though enjoyed his stay and was very happy at pick up. She also communicated throughout the day which I loved! Will definitely be booking again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Daly City
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.
I just adopted a new dog 3 days ago from the shelter who I learned has very bad separation anxiety. My only option was a dog sitter or doggy day care. Kim was extremely accommodating accepting my request only the night prior. I was nervous about leaving my baby with someone we didn't know but Kim soothed those worries in a heartbeat. She sent updates and pictures throughout their time. She was so sweet and I know Milo was in loving hands. I will definitely book with Kim again!
Kami and her boyfriend were such a pleasure to meet! We had to find a sitter last minute and they were so awesome and accommodating. We were able to do a meet and greet the day prior to having them dog sit and it couldn't have gone better. Their communication, flexibility, and care for our dog was beyond what we could expect! If we bring our dog back to the city, no doubt we will reach out to them!!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Daly City
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Daly City on Rover is $44.4 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 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 4,483 sitters in Daly City, 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.
