“Emely has been super helpful with helping take care of my 3 month old pup. She is very attentive and is always sure to send me updates throughout the day. I definitely recommend!”
“My puppy Millie had such a fun time at SaeWon’s! I loved how I got lots of pictures and videos sent to me throughout the day, and Millie was so happy! She enjoyed taking walks and playing with the other dog who was there. SaeWon did such a good job of caring for Millie and keeping me updated. We will be returning to SaeWon for sure!”
“Reinaldo is awesome! He is very prompt at responding to messages. This was our first time leaving our puppy in someone else's care, and we weren't sure how she would react to new dogs and a young child, as she hadn't yet had much exposure to these things. Reinaldo reassured us it would be fine, and sure enough, it was! Even though we just did a short day care, he sent us some update photos and a video, which we really appreciated. We have now found someone who we can trust and can confidently handle our puppy. We are so glad we won't have to worry about boarding our pup while we are away, as we know she will be in Reinaldo's wonderful care.”
“Another awesome play day for my little Caleb with Annie! The progress pics during the day make me smile and feel at peace knowing Caleb is so well taken care of. Warms my heart. Thank you, Annie!”
“Sandra and Peter did a great job taking care of our dog! They are thorough going through details before the day care and we can tell our dog had a great day when picking her up!”
“Thank you Gina for an amazing stay! I really appreciated Gina’s attention and thoughtful care with Teddy. She sent many pics and updates throughout the day and I knew he was in great hands. ?”
About: I used to work at an animal hospital and have attended formal training on pet care. I’ve been a pet lover all my life. Caring for animals is my passion! I work from home full-time so I have constant presence around the pets I babysit. My 7yo female (spayed) Calico stays with me and loves having access to me all day, and if you have a social pet, then I’m here for them too! I know which stuff are bad for pets so you’re guaranteed a safe stay with us. I am home all day so there will be constant care and guidance
“Kristina was amazing, so patient and warm with my dog! it was our first time using Rover and she was so great at communicating! We are going on vacation soon and planing on leaving her again with Kristina and her family for a few weeks.”
“David and his family were the best. They were so accommodating sweet, and my dog was so comfortable with them! I didn't have to worry about my dog all day while he was with them, and their picture updates were the best. Will book again!”
“My go to sitter for Cherokee recently moved out of state so I was very iffy about finding another person to watch Cher but Flor was very friendly and kept me updated on puppy throughout the day even sending pictures!”
“Repeat customer here. I came back to Junping because she really cares for pets like it’s her own. She’s very caring and now my dog gets excited when he knows he’s going to see her. Her kids are also very loving and caring towards JB. Makes him feel like he’s at home!”
“I had to book a last minute sitter for my Cooper. Aria and his wife were very accommodating. They were really sweet to my baby and took him for walks and treated him like family. I highly recommend them! Will definitely book again with them.”
About: Hi, I'm Tanchi! I'm an active empty-nester living in Irvine's Great Park neighborhood, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years I've shared my home with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. With two grown kids out of the house, I have plenty of time, patience, and love to give your pets. I genuinely love walking dogs (the longer the walk, the better), and I keep fit and active, so keeping up with an energetic pup, or slowing down for a senior dog, is no problem at all. What you can count on: reliable communication with plenty of photo updates (or fewer if you prefer), respect for your routines and your home, and care as attentive as I'd give my own pets. Living right by the Great Park means excellent walking routes practically at my doorstep. I'm new to Rover and building my reputation one happy pet at a time, so I'm offering introductory rates for now. You'll get lifelong pet experience and extra-attentive care at a great price. In return, I hope to earn your 5-star review! I'd love to meet you and your furry family member. Let's set up a Meet & Greet! Experience highlights: Lifetime pet owner: dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish Comfortable with all energy levels, from playful pups to mellow seniors Active daily walker, familiar with Great Park trails and Irvine neighborhoods New to Rover, with introductory rates while I build my reviews I set my own hours, so my schedule is flexible — available weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, mornings through evenings. Happy to work around your pet's routine. Your pet's safety comes first. I follow your instructions exactly — feeding routines, medications, leash rules, house rules. I do a Meet & Greet before any booking so everyone's comfortable, and you'll get regular photo updates while your pet is in my care.
“We left our dog with Olga for the daycare tryout. It was really good. She was very informative and kept us posted. Especially, she shared the fun video with us when our dog had a great interaction with another one. We felt very satisfied with Olga’s service. We already moved on and booked another two upcoming visits.”
“We had a great first experience with Stephanie! Everything went smoothly and we appreciated Stephanie’s calm demeanor and easy going personality. We’ll definitely use Stephanie again! Muffin seemed comfortable and happy with her!”
“omeira was absolutely wonderful! She is so sweet, attentive, and incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the updates and photos that the dogs were having a great time—they looked happy, relaxed, and loved getting to play and enjoy themselves. I truly appreciated how caring and thoughtful she was with them. I would absolutely book with Homeira again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to care for their dogs!”
“Shelley was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of my dog today and was incredibly kind, attentive, and dependable. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dog was in such good hands.

Thank you so much, Wen, for accommodating Peanut so last minute! I always feel relieved he is in loving hands, and he absolutely adores your son🥰 thank you so much for the cute pictures and updates! We would love for Peanut to be in your care again in the future 🌼
I highly recommend Mahsa! She is incredibly kind, caring, and truly treats dogs with so much love and attention. She was always punctual and reliable, which gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. She also kept me updated regularly by sending pictures and videos of my dog, which I really appreciated and made me feel even more reassured while I was away. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the pets she watches and goes above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and happy. I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with her and would absolutely trust her again in the future!
Donna was absolutely wonderful in caring for KiKi, our Petite (yet energetic) German Shepherd rescue. Kiki was immediately comfortable with Donna. She was able to not only give safe care and space, but also anticipated our 5 year-old rescue's need for companionship which helped quell Kiki's separation anxiety. This is a massive WIN for Kiki and for us. Our Pup trusted Donna's active yet casual approach which also became an energetic approach as needed. Donna also sent us photos of our dog's day long stay, her walks, chasing balls, her exploring. We nominate Donna for a Rover Doggie Day Care Giver Champion-of-the-Day! Thank you, Donna!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Foothill Ranch
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Foothill Ranch is $58 per day as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $35 and $84 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 November 2026, there are 3,689 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Foothill Ranch. 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 Foothill Ranch 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 November 2026, there are 3,689 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 3,689 sitters in Foothill Ranch, 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
