“Ahiram took very good care of my dog & sent updates & photos. I was nervous at first because this is my first time leaving him with someone else but the updates kept me at peace. He was in very good spirits when I picked him up. Left my dog in great paws. 🐾”
“We loved our stay with Sofiya! Our golden retriever Caymus had such a fun time! We absolutely loved the communication from her as well. She provided a photo, his report card and a great update on him as well! Highly recommend her!!”
“Thank you to Lauren and Catherine for hosting my furbabies Harley and Bella! They provided exceptional care and kept me in the loop through the day. I recommend them both for anyone looking for a caring pet sitter.”
“Grace was SO caring for my puppy and sent me pictures constantly throughout the day. She brushed his hair and taught him some commands, and went above and beyond what was expected for his daycare. I will not hesitate to leave my puppy with Grace in the future. Thank you so much Grace!”
“Yoona and Minjae was absolutely amazing! They are very easy to communicate with and gave us plenty of updates while Link stayed with them during his doggy day care! We love the pictures and all the care that Yoona and Minjae provided to Link and would absolutely recommend them and book with them again in the future. :-)”
“Trishalee was amazing. She saved me in a last minute pinch when I needed someone to watch my senior, deaf, and blind baby. She sent photos and was super kind and flexible. My baby came back happy, calm, tail wagging, relaxed—which says it all. I would absolutely trust her again. Thank you Trishalee!! From me & Mazel :)”
“Robyn is great to work with. She has a lot of knowledge and awareness about dog behavior which immediately put me at ease. Lucy had an awesome time at her house.”
“Lu took such good care of my pup Kelly! She responded promptly to messages and service request. And she kept me updated with lots of cute videos and photos! Kelly was a bit nervous at the beginning but settled really quickly and definitely had a good time with Lu.”
“My pup had the best time with Turki, Madeline, and Samra! I booked day care last minute and they were able to accommodate my dog and give her the best time!”
“If I could give Ghelina 100 stars, I would!! She’s the best sitter we’ve ever had. I’ve used Rover before, but after just moving from GA, I was so nervous about finding a new sitter out here. I’m beyond grateful I found Ghelina because she is everything. I would trust her with my Sevyn 1,000 times over. She was absolutely amazing with her and sent so many videos, photos, and updates throughout my stay, which truly put me at ease. She kept Sevyn active all day..she went to sleep almost immediately after every stay. Ghelina and her partner took such great care of my baby for 3 days. Thank you!!!! 🩷🩷”
“Soojin was fantastic with my Suki girl for daycare! She sent lots of adorable photos and updates throughout the day, answered all of my questions, and made drop-off and pick-up incredibly easy. I felt completely at ease knowing Suki was in such great hands. My pup came home happy, tired, and content, which is always the best sign. I’m so grateful to have found Soojin and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter. Thank you, Soojin!”
“Larissa is a wonderful host for Doggy Day Care of our puppy. She and her kids are caring and attentive to our puppy's needs. I can definitely recommend Larissa.”
“Eris did a phenomenal job taking care of our rambunctious and hyper little husky puppy. She checked in often with videos and pictures. She made sure we were okay with her dogs meeting our pup and shared how she planned to introduce them. We are beyond satisfied and pleased with her care, attention to our pups need and patience.”
“My dog Otis isn't to keen on meeting new people, & has major separation anxiety issues, but he took to Matt pretty quickly. Matt was very communicative all throughout the day sending pictures & updates, & Otis was such a well behaved dog. I would DEFINITELY recommend Matt to others, and taking Otis back for future sittings!! Thank you Matt for everything! 😀”
“I left Ryder with Max for his first doggy daycare drop-in, and it was a great experience. Max took him for a walk right away, and Ryder clearly enjoyed spending the day with him. He came home happy, relaxed, and pleasantly tired. Thank you, Max!”
“First time using Rover and had the best experience with Chandra! Found her last minute and was very accommodating with my new corgi puppy. I know my puppy Peggy is in good hands and plan to come back again!”
“We recently used Ashley’s services, and I cannot express how grateful we are for the peace of mind her and her partner provided. Even before our meeting, we immediately felt relieved when they thoughtfully asked about the specific care we expected from their service. This attention to detail made us feel confident that our pet would be in good hands. During our interactions, they were inviting, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. We especially appreciated that we were never made to feel guilty or judged for requesting a late-night pick-up—something that could have been an inconvenience but was handled with genuine understanding and kindness. They also made an instant connection with our dog, which made the drop-off seamless as Billie (our dog) walked right along with them. This instant bond reassured us that Billie felt comfortable and safe, easing any lingering worries we had. Our pet was not only well cared for but also genuinely happy, thanks to the attentive and loving care from Ashley. The regular updates, photos, and clear communication kept us at ease throughout. Highly recommend to any pet parent looking for reliable, compassionate care. Thank you, Ashley & Armand for your outstanding service!”
“Flora took such great care of Benji! It was a daycare stay, and I could tell how much Benji loves her. Benji will definitely be staying with Flora again this summer!”
“Heather was amazing with Luna. She was great with communication and photo updates and made sure Luna had a walk and playtime. Luna can be a bit anxious but Heather made her feel comfortable and right at home.”

Megha and Avi’s family took wonderful care of Daisy yesterday! They were patient and respectful of Daisy’s nervousness around other dogs by keeping their dog Barfi near them while giving Daisy time to explore. And true to what they said, Barfi is so sweet natured and goood! He and Daisy had a peaceful day together, Barfi taking the cue that it was enough for Daisy to share the space but not ready to play together. I got so many pictures - Megha is an amazing photographer! - that I was truly put at ease throughout the day. Looks like Daisy got lots of kind attention because she was smiling in several of the pictures and came home in such a happy mood! Communication & Scheduling:100% responsive and clear. Thank you Megha, Avi and family - and of course to Barfi too!
Samie loved staying with Krystal! Krystal was very communicative and sent pictures throughout the day. Samie usually takes a while to warm up to people, but by the second day, she was wagging her tail and barking as we pulled up! We will be working with Krystal again soon. :)
Nabil was absolutely amazing with Margoh! Very attentive and caring, and I loved all the updates and pictures that were sent throughout her stay. Communication was great, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. I would definitely love to have Margoh stay with them again and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a wonderful sitter!
Sofiya took care my Shih Tzu Luca twice a week for the last few weeks. Luca looked forward to going there every time and she seemed to have a good time. Sofya seemed a very experienced person and was efficient in handling many dogs at once. I will go back to her when needed again
Gary was an absolute godsend for my dog Jack, who has separation anxiety! This was the first time I left Jack with anyone since he developed separation anxiety after a move. Jack climbed into Gary's lap during the meet and greet, which I knew was a good sign. (He's also not a small dog.) When Gary came for housesitting with Jack, Jack was super excited to see him. I left for almost eight hours and felt confident that Jack was in good hands. When I returned home, I could see that Jack had a good day with Gary. Gary came back for two hours the next day, and I didn't worry at all. Gary had the perfect combination of calming and playful energy that Jack needed. Will definitely hire him again! Thank you, Gary!
My dog stayed with Raquel for the day, and we had a great experience. He looked very comfortable and happy with Raquel and her family, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Raquel provided timely updates throughout the day, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. I felt completely safe leaving my dog with her and would not hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!
This is probably my nth booking with Ru, and there’s a reason I keep coming back. Ru’s reliable, caring, and clearly love the dogs she watches. Mochi gets so excited every time she visits and always comes home happy. Sometimes she seems like she’d rather stay a little longer! I always feel completely at ease knowing she’s in such good hands. Thank you for taking such great care of her. See you next time! 😊🐶
Diana and John take such good care of my Italian Greyhound, Benny. They are very communicative and send lots of great pictures. They take extra care in ensuring that a dog is a good fit for their group during the meet and greet before booking, and they have an ideal set up for the dogs at their home. Benny is always visibly excited when we come to daycare, and has even tried to go back in at pick up! Overall, I’ve had such a wonderful experience with them. Highly recommend

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Fruitdale
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Fruitdale on Rover is $47.73 per day (as of July 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 2,712 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Fruitdale. 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 Fruitdale 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 2,712 sitters in Fruitdale, 89% 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.
