“Sarah is awesome! We have a Great Dane puppy and not everyone can accommodate that. Sarah plays with Kona and I asked her to bring Odin to the drop ins and the pups are having a blast! We are scheduling regular drop ins with Sarah and enjoy her flexibility and commitment to taking great care of our Kona”
About: I’ve been caring for pets and house sitting since I was a kid, with over 15 years of hands-on experience including formal pet care and training. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and if I hadn’t ended up in tech, I probably would’ve become a vet! I work from home full-time, so your pet will get plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a fully fenced backyard, which is perfect for safe playtime during boarding stays. I have experience with pets of all ages and needs — from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just want a calm, cozy environment. I live with my fiancé and our 2-year-old mini doodle, Bear. He’s about 15 lbs of pure sweetness and loves other dogs, but he’s also very good at giving space to pups who prefer a quieter vibe. If you’re considering boarding, I always want to make sure you’re fully comfortable with him sharing the home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority! Work from home, daily care with a wide open schedule! Always happy to go on daily walks and keep your pet company throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard and a sweet little doodle to keep your pet company. I also work from my computer, so quick to respond to messages and happy to send photos of your pet’s visit!
“Christine was great! Super kind and communicative. Her updates were super helpful and it seems like Bitty had a great time! I would feel very comfortable having Bitty visit again.”
“Emily and Steven were amazing!! First time using this app and leaving my dog with strangers. My dog has severe separation anxiety and Emily and Steven were able to make her feel comfortable and calm. I received updates throughout the day for both stays and will be contacting them the next time we need care for our pup. Thank you!!”
“Super grateful Gargi was able to watch my pup last minute when I went into work this week. I appreciate all the updates in realtime she provided as well. Gargi’s dog, June, and mine became instant pals! By the end of the day I can tell she had fun playing and got some exercise in. Thank you Gargi and June!”
“A nice and beautiful family, we felt Nola was much happier stayed with them the entire the day compared to to may different places that we have tried. Mita was very communicative, keep sending us photos and updates. Very satisfied with their service and truly appreciate them to taking care of of our girl.”
“Elena and Jan took amazing care of our pup Arlo at doggy day care. We’re first-time puppy owners and this was our first time leaving him outside our home, but Elena and Jan put us right at ease. Arlo whined when we picked him up and tried to get back out the car, so I think it’s safe to say he had a blast! They sent several photo updates of him living it up which we loved! Thank you for taking such great care of him. He will definitely be back for longer stays!”
“Annie had doggy friends to play with and came home content and tired and excited to go back the next day. I’m from out of state and pick up and drop off was easy and flexible which was really helpful for us too.”
“Vicki's daycare is amazing! I'm so glad we found her. Out shy guy, Lucky, is already snuggling with her! She knows dogs and is so good with them. We're in for as long as she'll have us :)”

“Gus had a great time with Scott! Scott handled Gus's initial excitement well, and sent good updates throughout the day. Gus was nice and tired at the end of the day. Would book Scott again!”
“From the moment we walked in, Karissa and her cousin were awesome and welcoming, making both my pup and me feel right at home. Thank you Karissa! I will definitely come back again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Esperance
My dog Nala is a very anxious dog, but going for regular visits at Cait and Sean's has given her so much more confidence in her interactions with other dogs. They are always very accommodating, and show so much care when introducing Nala to the other dogs that may be spending time with them. They are both so good with her!
I booked with Conor last minute and he was able to accommodate. This was my first time leaving my puppy with someone, so I was definitely nervous. Conor has a very calm, kind demeanor which immediately put me at ease upon drop off. My pup had the time of his life playing with Conor's dogs and in their kiddie pool. I will definitely be booking with him again.
Christine was wonderful, we had a brief booking with her during our trip to Seattle. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed her time and made new friends. She ensured our comfort by providing regular updates and photographs. We highly recommend her services and plan to return.
Scott took great care of my dog, Annie! She came home happy and completely worn out, which is always a good sign. He sent pictures during her stay and even took her for a walk, which I really appreciated. I would definitely use Scott again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter.
Very responsive and was able to accommodate on short notice. Bonnie seemed to enjoy snuggling on all the soft blankies and dog beds there too! Came home happy and healthy, I got lots of photos and updates. Bonnie probably appreciated being the only dog there too haha.
Ryan provided EXCEPTIONAL care for my dog, Sodus. Not only was Ryan flexible to care for Sodus from the early morning to late evening given my long nursing shifts, but when I notified Ryan that my dog was having GI issues the night before he was meant to sit for him, Ryan was so graciously still willing to watch my sick boy. Any dog owner knows how stressful it can be to have a dog who has diarrhea/vomiting - giving bland diet, all the meds, letting out frequently, cleaning up sick… and the fact that Ryan was so dependable that he was willing to help watch my boy during this time speaks volumes to his commitment to his clients and his love for dogs. I will absolutely be using Ryan again for my pet care needs and would recommend him 10 times over. Thanks again Ryan!
She took such great care of my pup for the day on short notice. Her dog is such a sweet gentle soul and got along great with mine. They all had a nice time in her big backyard to run around, she gave my pup love and treats - I’m sure he was very happy with the whole experience. :) Thanks so much!!
Brooke did an amazing job watching over our sweet pup! She was very responsive and sent updates and photos often. Oyuki settled in and felt comfortable very quickly. We could tell Brooke took good care of her. She gave Oyuki plenty of walks and belly rubs! Will definitely have Brooke watch her again and will recommend her to others.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Esperance on Rover is $42.18 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Esperance 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 WA 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 3,730 sitters in Esperance, 88% 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.
