“Nothing but positive things to say! Briana was very easy to communicate with in order to make arrangements. Her and her family were very patient with our little maltipoo and she even sent me updates with pictures throughout the day that provided me re-assurance our fur baby was doing well.”

About: I've taken care of pets since I was 12. I've had dogs, cats, and goats for as long as I can remember. My neighbors, friends and family have trusted me to care for and walk their pets numerous times. Now I'm extending my compassion and experience to others looking for the same love for their pets. I am currently home from college on my summer break. That leaves my week completely open to take care of any fur babies that need it! I can give your babies my full attention. I only leave the house for a max of 2 hours a day. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for your pet to wonder around. I have 1 senior dog who would love some company of another dog!
“We just brought Archie home from Daycare and he is exhausted. We are thrilled because that is what he needed. Nina's updates and pictures were great. Can't wait to take Archie back for his 5 day visit! ?????”

“Lee is a truly amazing dog sitter. Her place is absolutely spotless, but stashed away is a treasure trove of amazing dog toys!! She was so kind to us and the dogs. You can tell she really enjoys all of her clients and getting to know them. And she sent plenty of pictures and updates!!! We felt very confident that the dogs were safe and having a great time. I am so glad we found her to watch our babies.❤️”

“I loved Krysten! She was so patient with my puppy even though he is a big boy! She took him on walks and let him around her kids. I will always come back to Krysten everytime she is available”

“Ashley did an amazing job. Our dogs had never been to a pet sitter and they loved spending time with her. We were traveling and Ashley was very flexible and accommodating. We would highly recommend Ashley for any pet sitting needs. She is a natural with pets and you can tell she loves what she does.”

“Keith and family were so great with my little guy! From the moment we met he was so welcoming. It’s such a relief to have a place for my dog to go that I trust he’s being well cared for! Will be booking again in the near future!”


“We love Tea, and we think Jelli does also! We are in the area only for a few months and booked Tea for a 2 week trip in April. Then we decided to attend several spring training baseball games and have utilized Tea's daycare services several times. Tea is warm and loving and takes great care of our 10 year old chihuahua who really does not like other dogs. We highly recommend Tea and if we were here in the area permanently, Tea would remain our Rover of choice for our fur baby.”

“Melissa and her family took great care of our 1st-timers! They were clearly well-cared for and even received a mini spa day while they were there for the day. We would definitely visit them again!”

“Very happy with the sitter. I will definitely use them again. I I want to thank Alan. I have never left my dogs with anyone but Alan proved that I can bring to him.”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my puppy received. From day one, you showed patience, kindness, and genuine love for dogs. I always felt at ease knowing my pup was safe, happy, and well cared for. You kept me updated, followed instructions perfectly, and treated my dog like family.”


About: Our background is heavily centered on all breeds (including working breeds and large, powerful dogs). We know that strong, high-energy pups require confident handlers who understand how to maintain clear boundaries, structure, and a calm environment. If you have a large dog or a breed that other sitters might find intimidating, they are completely safe and welcome with us. Our Expertise Includes: ● Behavioral Understanding & Training: We have a deep grasp of behavioral principles and positive reinforcement. We focus on reading canine body language to prevent stress and keep a multi-dog environment completely harmonious. We even implement advanced mental enrichment and communication systems at home (like word-button training!) to keep smart minds sharp. ● Structured Routines: We know how critical consistency is for a dog away from home. We strictly mirror your feeding, crate, and medical schedules to ensure a seamless transition. ● Valley Heat Safety: As locals, we are experts in managing desert summers. We know exactly how to look for signs of heat stress, protect paws, and keep dogs thoroughly entertained indoors when it's too hot to be out. Whether your pup needs a structured environment to burn off working-breed energy or a patient, gentle approach for a shy dog, we have the skills and experience to make their stay a 5-star experience. Our Availability & Service Schedule: Because I am a stay-at-home mom, our schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing us to offer top-tier care whether your pet is staying with us or we are visiting them at your home. Here is how our routine works across our different services: 1. For Boarding & Doggy Daycare (At Our Home) Round-the-Clock Supervision: I am home full-time during the day, meaning guest pets enjoy constant companionship, frequent potty breaks (every 2–3 hours), and strict adherence to their feeding schedules. Beat the Heat Routine: Mid-days (8:30 AM – 4:30 PM) are strictly for indoor relaxation in the AC, puzzle toys, and mental enrichment. Outdoor playtime is kept to the cooler morning and evening hours. Drop-off & Pick-up Flexibility: Since I am anchored at home, we can easily accommodate flexible drop-off and pick-up windows between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM to match your travel or commute schedule. 2. For Drop-ins & Check-ins (At Your Home) Flexible Daytime Visits: If you need someone to check in on your cats or dogs, feed them, scoop litter, or let them out for a midday potty break, I am available for local neighborhood visits during the day. Tag-Team Coverage: My husband, Juan, tags in during his off-shift hours and weekends. This team dynamic means we have excellent availability to cover early morning, evening, or weekend check-ins when you are stuck at work or out of town. Real-Time Updates: For every check-in, you’ll receive an immediate update, photos of your pets, and confirmation that they are safe, fed, and happy. Weekends & Holidays We have fantastic coverage for weekend boarding and house check-ins. While Juan handles a couple of overnight work shifts, I am home sleeping right alongside our boarding guests, and Juan is fully available during his weekend daylight hours to help manage the routine or conduct visits. We treat your pets and your home with the utmost respect, providing a structured, safe, and loving environment every single time! We believe that peace of mind is the most important thing we can give a pet owner. Our home is set up specifically to prioritize structure, security, and absolute transparency. When your dog stays with us, they aren't just crashing on our floor—they have a space tailored entirely to their safety and comfort. The Dedicated Dog Room & 24/7 Camera Access We have a fully dedicated, climate-controlled guest room in our home exclusively for the dogs we watch. Individual Kennels: The room is equipped with high-quality, sturdy crates. Every dog has their own secure kennel for sleeping, structured downtime, and feeding. This prevents any multi-dog friction and gives your pup a quiet, safe space to decompress. Your Personal 24/7 Live Feed: We believe in complete transparency. We have a secure, high-definition pet camera set up in the dog room, and we give you direct access to the live link 24/7. Whether you are at work, at a dinner, or on a flight across the country, you can log in at any second of the day or night to see exactly how your pup is resting and relaxing. Backyard & Home Security Fully Fenced Yard: Our backyard is completely secured with a sturdy fence and locked gates. Dogs are never allowed outside unsupervised; either Lesly or Juan is always in the yard monitoring playtime. Separate Feeding & High-Value Items: To eliminate any chance of resource guarding, all dogs are fed completely separately inside their own kennels. Toys and treats are strictly monitored and handed out individually. Child-Safe & Pet-Safe Environment: Because our home is run by a full-time stay-at-home mom, our living spaces are kept meticulously clean, organized, and free of any hazardous items or loose chords. Health & Heat Safety Protocols Living in the Valley, we take heat safety incredibly seriously. We actively monitor the indoor temperature of the dog room to ensure the AC is running perfectly. We strictly adhere to your specific medication schedules, dietary restrictions, and emergency contact protocols. We maintain a low-occupancy, high-attention home. By capping our guest list, keeping a dedicated space, and giving you an open window into their room via our live camera, we ensure your dog gets a safe, luxury boarding experience while you get total peace of mind.
“Excellent!We are traveling in our RV and needed a pup sitter to watch the girls while we had family get togethers. And just like the "Lost Dutchman", we struck gold with Robyn. Such a kind sitter and one that had great friends for our pups to play with. Close to our location, nice fenced area, flexible for our needs, and cats, too.”

About: I can assure you if you trust us with your pup they will get all the love, care and attention while you’re away. I have a four year old mixed Bernese mountain dog who absolutely loves every human and animal he comes across. Our house is quiet with a big fenced in secure yard, no children in the home and there are many parks and trails to take your pup for walks. I work from home so someone is usually home and our dog Gus loves to entertain or just snuggle up and snooze so your pup is never alone. Please tell me anything that will help us understand if your dog has any aggression towards other dogs/humans, house broken, daily medication, etc..for their safety and ours. They are not allowed on furniture.
“Lisa was amazing with our girls! It was evident how much she cares for dogs by the research she does before they stay plus asking great questions on dropoff. Our dogs were exhausted and happy after their stay, exactly what we love after a day of playing. We would absolutely use Lisa again when we are in need of someone to trust with our girls.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Gold Canyon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Gold Canyon on Rover is $35.97 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 1,443 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Gold Canyon. 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 Gold Canyon 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 AZ 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 1,443 sitters in Gold Canyon, 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.
