“Clara was amazing with our super energetic 10 month old puppy. She was very patient and took really good care of him. She was also very accommodating of my schedule and was willing to work around it. Guduchi looks forward to see his next stay with you.”
“Thank you Ashley for taking great care of Koda. I know he enjoys his visits. I said to Koda, I know you like grandma and he was looking around the room. So I know he likes grandma. Thanks”
“Sacarina was great! She took wonderful care of Bandido and was very good keeping me posted with updates every day. Bandido was safe and in great hands and had a lot of fun too! I completely recommend booking her services and I’ll definitively do that again. We couldn’t be happier.”
“Anna was very understanding and patient with our senior pup, Shaq. She frequently sent photos and updates of him. I would recommend her and plan to have our dog attend her doggy day care again. Thanks! 😊”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats throughout my life. I’m a stay-at-home pet mom with two older, very friendly dogs, and I regularly care for friends’ and neighbors’ pets when they are away. I’m experienced with pets of all ages, especially seniors and pets needing extra care. I can give oral medications, injections, and prepare home-cooked or special meals, and carefully follow your pet’s individual routine. Most importantly, I provide attentive, loving, and reliable care and treat every pet like part of my family. I’m a stay-at-home pet mom, so I’m home most of the day and have plenty of time to care for pets. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine with my own dogs and cat. I walk my dogs twice a day and have a flexible schedule for feeding, playtime, medications, potty breaks, and extra attention. Since I’m home most of the time, your pet will have plenty of companionship, supervision, and loving care throughout the day. I have a spacious 2,400 sq. ft. home with a fully fenced yard. I’m home all day, so pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. There are also two parks within a 5-minute walk from my home, which are great for daily walks and outdoor time. For pets that need their own space, I have a pet playpen and crate available. I can also separate pets when needed for feeding, resting, medications, or comfort. I follow each pet parent’s routine and instructions carefully so their pet feels safe, relaxed, and at home.
About: I grew up with many different types of pets. Currently, my family has a cat (at their home) and I have a dog at my house so I have experience with different personalities and needs. I do work full time, so I am mostly available on weekends and evenings only. But I typically walk my dog 3 times a day and can do the same for another dog in my care. I do have a dog-friendly dog at home so I have toys and treats available (only if I get the OK to feed). I also am active and like to be outdoors so walks will be plenty.
“I will definitely be going back! Bandit LOVED being with them. I knew they’d be good sitters when they walked out and the kids and Shawna had researched my dogs breed (Frisian Stabij) that was an immediate sigh of relief and it only went up from there. They were communicative, sent pictures, and so trustworthy. Would recommend !!”
“Phenomenally trustworthy and kind pet sitter. Our puppy doesn’t usually like when I’m not around but she was so excited to go see Ying that I’ll probably be moving forward with booking her weekly. Very communicative, responsible, and caring.”
“Gareth was great. He was able to accommodate a last minute booking. During Boots’ stay Gareth provided updates and photos, great communication! Would book with Gareth again and definitely recommend.”
About: Have a 6 year old Cattle dog myself, a well mannered and friendly pup to play with yours during the stay! I pay very close attention to pets needs, and love keeping them happy with entertaining play, walks, and healthy food. Currently work from home full time but take frequent breaks throughout the day to tend to pets, to feed them, play with them and let them run around in the yard, or take for a walk. I have a single family home with a secure fenced yard. Your pup will always be in a secure location or on a leash during a walk. I never let dogs off-leash on a walk even if their recall can be trusted.
“This was our first time using Rover and we are so happy we found Dyan. She invited us to her home prior to the stay to help alleviate any concerns we might have and sent a video the day of Abigail’s stay to show that she was settling in. We appreciated the care and attention she gave to her and us!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 2 years, including dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I make sure each fur baby feels safe, happy, and loved. I’m experienced with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving lots of cuddles! I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own and keep you updated every step of the way I’m working part-time, which means I have plenty of quality time to care for your pets! I’m available for dog walking and drop-ins on weekdays after 2pm, and fully open on weekends for boarding and longer stays. Whether your pup loves playtime or just needs cozy company, I’m here to fit your schedule and keep them happy. Pets in my care are treated like family. I provide a calm, safe environment with lots of affection and attention to their needs. I closely follow any routines, feeding instructions, or training cues you rely on at home. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and communication—expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away
“Nagarjuna took great care of my pet, and sent periodic updates with messages, photos and videos for first daycare. I will definitely look to Nagarjuna for future boarding/day care needs.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Oreo received! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he was in great hands. The updates and photos throughout the day gave me so much peace of mind, and Oreo came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. Thank you for treating him like family — we’ll definitely book again!”
“Cindy was such a great sitter. Winnie was super excited to meet her and seemed immediately comfortable. They had a day running around town and resting at the house. I’d definitely ask Cindy to watch Winnie again!”
“We’re so happy we found Pamela! From our very first interaction, we had such a good feeling about her. Rex is a sensitive boy with separation anxiety, so we’re always a little nervous leaving him with someone new. But throughout his stay, we felt like he was in really good hands. Pamela sent us photo updates, which we absolutely loved, and it was so reassuring to see Rex having a good time. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which we really appreciated. When we picked Rex up, he was calm, happy, and not stressed at all. We’ve already booked several more stays with Pamela and are so glad we found someone we feel comfortable leaving Rex with. Highly recommend!! You’ll love her… but please don’t steal all of Rex’s future bookings! Haha 😂”
“Kim is amazing, her house is beautiful, her two dogs are very well behaved, and I could not be happier with her services! She is very professional (knows a lot about dog training), communicates nicely, and my dog was better behaved when I picked her up than when I dropped her off!”
“Yoshi had another great stay overnight with Benjamin and Qiyun! Really appreciate all the updates throughout the day and how very attentive they are with Yoshi! Amazing care and communication, thank you!”
“Ash and her family have treated my baby Pepper so well. He is just learning to be OK without me. Ash has helped me deal with his separation anxiety and mine :-) by welcoming him into her home.”

Penny had a wonderful time at Clara's house with her adorable dog Diego! Clara is kind, caring, and very attentive. She kept us updated with photos/messages and took great care of Penny. We really appreciated how comfortable and loved she made her feel. We would definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again!
April is super kind and accommodating. Luma came back home very happy and I'm very happy to have found her. She provided ample of pictures of her interaction with Luma which definitely gave me great peace of mind as Luma is a 9-month puppy experiencing his very first daycare session. I will definitely be requesting her again!
Continue to be so appreciative of Carolyn. She responded to a last minute request for all day care when we were really in a pinch. I was able to rest easy while our dog had an incredibly fun day. He is always so over the moon to see her. As a pet parent, it's so reassuring to see her true love and devotion for animals. Thank you again!!
Our pup’s first day staying with Dyan and her family. He sure seemed to have a good time. Dyan sent several pics and videos of Kitsu on a walk and playing with her kids. It was a “get to know each other” day. He’s going to stay with them again next week while we’re away. Dyan is great with communication and following whatever requests we had for Kitsu.
Natalie was great! She followed Millie’s schedule and sent regular updates throughout the day. Millie had a wonderful time playing with Natalie’s dogs and came home happily exhausted. We really appreciate the excellent care Natalie provided and would happily book with her again.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Mindy. She has been watching my golden retriever, Rosie, for the past few months, and today was her last day before Rosie’s surgery tomorrow and I truly don’t know how I would have gotten through this time without her. From day one, Mindy treated Rosie like her own. She is kind, patient, incredibly reliable, and so attentive to Rosie’s needs. I always felt completely at ease knowing Rosie was in such loving and capable hands. Mindy kept me updated, made sure Rosie was comfortable and happy, and genuinely cared about her well-being. Having someone you trust during such an important and emotional time is priceless, and Mindy has been that person for us. I am beyond grateful for everything she has done for Rosie and for our family. Any pet would be so lucky to be cared for by her. I recommend Mindy wholeheartedly and without hesitation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Dublin is $53 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $70 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,710 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Dublin. 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 Dublin 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.
As of October 2026, there are 5,710 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of CA. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
