“We are always so nervous when being in a new place and needing a dog sitter, but they told us right away they were at home. Loved the pictures and videos of their stay.”

About: Hi! I'm a passionate and attentive pet caregiver with 5+ years of personal experience and 1 year of professional dog-sitting under my belt. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and energy levels—from high-energy pups who love a good run, to mellow seniors who just want a snuggle buddy. One of my own dogs experiences focal seizures, so I’m very familiar with providing calm, capable care in medical situations. I’m also experienced with administering medications (pills, drops, etc.) and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable during the process. My dog Mr. Peanutbutter has had bad experiences with larger dogs so I understand pups who need a little extra care with anxiety. I’ve worked with a variety of animals, including ducks, and I’d be happy to check in on other pets (like cats, birds, or small animals) or care for your plants while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in, an energetic walk, or overnight care, I bring patience, responsibility, and plenty of love to every visit. I treat every animal like they’re my own—and I can’t wait to meet yours! Pet care is my passion and my full time focus while saving up for higher education. Pet care is what I'm focused on when not studying. I only have late night class for 2 hours 1 night a week and at home studying so I have much time to focus on specific needs. My home has a fenced yard with plenty of space to run and and play with a patio area and another fenced off pool area.
About: I am an animal lover all my life, I want to help furbabys parents have the peace of mind knowing when they leave for a getaway that their furbaby will be very well cared for and loved. I am home all day, so your furbaby will not be left alone. I have a doggy door so they can come and go as they please into my backyard My yard is secure with gates closing off our entire yard. I have a lil furbaby of my own her name is “Mimosa” and she is absolutely the sweetest she loves everything, everyone and loves to play she would be so happy having a playmate!!!

About: Animal care is my absolute passion and it's a goal of mine to earn licensure as a vet technician! I grew up on a ranch around animals big and small and for the last 4 years have been professionally pet-sitting; mostly cats and dogs but also rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and birds. I'm comfortable with any medication administration, special food preparation, or exercise/training requirements that your pet needs and can accommodate any requests. As a fully online student, I have complete flexibility in my day to care for your pet. I'm available daily, including weekends, and accept bookings same-day. I also accept drop in/house sitting requests for most small animals including rodents and reptiles. I have no animals of my own so your pets will have my complete attention and the house to themselves. My apartment complex has plenty of green grass and wildlife for enrichment walks and play, and my home has sunny windows for sunbathing. Safety, trust, and comfortability are my ultimate priorities and I would care for your pets/home the same way I would want someone to care for mine.
About: I’ve been an animal lover since birth and began actively helping care for cats and dogs at age 6. I’ve cared for pregnant stray cats and fostered their newborn kittens to young adulthood and beyond. I’ve both raised and helped train dogs from birth as well as caring for elderly pups. I’ve seen animals at all stages of life and cared for them at all stages of life, both cat and dog. I am active and love to walk so if that’s your dog we’ll get along great! I also love relaxing while drinking tea, reading, or gardening, so if your fur baby is a bit on the calmer side or elderly they’ll get plenty of rest, cuddles, and love. I work part-time but I walk/bike daily and have the majority of my days free to walk, play, and love on sweet fur baby’s. I miss having animals in my home and would love to help you with yours! I have a good size fenced-in backyard and am not too worried about little (or big) paws on my furniture. There's room to play either inside or out, a quiet neighborhood to walk in, and a park a few minutes away. If your companion is crate trained I do have my own crates if that is something you need/are interested in. I have had to care for sick as well as elderly babies, both dogs, and cats, so if your pet needs certain accommodations or extra attention I have some experience in working with those that need a little extra help.
“Peggy had a great day! She was well cared for. I appreciated the pictures, videos, and texts throughout the day. My favorite is the video showing Peggy and their dog running together in their large backyard. Wonderful place for your dog to stay for the day.”
About: For the past two decades or more (circa 2001) I have cared for dogs as far north as Alaska as far south as Brazil as far east as France and as far west as Santa Cruz California Responsibility of pets is something often I enjoy greatly. Hardly a day goes by where I am not up early feeding walking and cleaning up after either my own or someone else’s fur babies. My basic service on Rover includes two feedings per day, two potty breaks (if necessary), one medium range walk (~30mins) depending on weather and one photo update (optional). If you need more services, please state outright so we can adjust the rates accordingly. I focus on sitting at owners’ homes and I’m very respectful and tidy when it comes to property upkeep. Hope we can meet up soon for an arrangement.
About: I've taken care several different types of animals throughout my life. I've lived on a farm and was responsible for all the animals on the farm. I am a teacher so I am off by 3:30 and have weekends off. I also have all major holidays off. I am willing to travel! I have a fenced yard. I also have one dog and one cat of my own. They are use to other animals. I also have crates if needed.
“An amazing family with the needs of you & your pet at top priority. Overall took amazing care of my girl. Sent updates and pictures without being asked or haggled to. That was a huge plus in my book. Very professional and the love of our furry friends is well shown here. I was very impressed and was able to enjoy my day out with my daughter without worry or fear. If Mrs. Rachel was on the clock I’d demand a raise for her.”

About: Just a girl from California! I grew up with dogs & cats my whole life. From pets to farm animals. I have great experience :) I have a Belgian Malinois of my own. I will care for your fur baby as if they were my own! I am currently free and can work around my schedule :) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I live in a home with a fenced yard! I have a dog of my own to keep your fur baby company. I can crate if needed!
About: I have been a pet owner and lover for almost my whole entire life! I am here to help you with your fur babies and to treat and take care of them as if they were my own family members❤️😊 I am currently a stay at home mom of 3 so I am available day and night, weekdays and weekends as well. Taking off on a trip? Don’t worry I got you! Needing a sitter for a few hour’s ? I’ll be home! Your pet’s well-being means the world to me. In your home or mine, I provide a warm, loving space where they feel safe and cherished. With two dogs and four cats of my own, I know the joy and comfort pets bring. I treat every animal like family.. listening to their needs, honoring their routines, and giving them the gentle care they deserve while you’re away.
About: I understand that your fur babies are your family and can’t wait to meet them. With 32 years of general pet care and ownership experience (and counting), I look forward to loving and caring for your furry family members. I’m a stay at home Mom to a few fur babies and my daughter. My schedule is very flexible and can be adjusted fairly easily with communication. I’m happy to adopt any schedule or routines requested for yours and your pet’s happiness. I’m flexible and can care for your fur babies at any location required. I look forward to welcoming you and your pets into our little family.
About: I grew up with dogs- Huskies and German Shepard. Also grew up with cats- mostly Siamese. I’m very active and love running and long walks if you’re pup is for it! I have an eager almost six year old son who loves to help out and is very gentle with pets. I’m a teacher, so I’m available weekends, all the long holiday breaks, and all summer. I can do during the work week as well, but am gone 7.5 hours! My son is wanting a dog and I’m looking for any excuse to get outdoors and moving as much as possible, so I figured dog walking and sitting would be perfect for our little family. We have some big goals for our little family as well and would love the opportunity to earn your business and help us accomplish those :) We don’t discriminate against cats and would love to watch them as well. I live in a pet friendly community and can sit in my all hardwood floor three bedroom townhome that has a dog park on site. During the school year, I am gone for 7.5 hours during the day, so please keep that in mind if you need boarding on weekdays when school is in session :) A few musta for doggies in our home- they must be house trained, they must be okay home alone for the workday (unless during a holiday week or summer), in which case they must be okay independently for up to 5 hours. Dogs cannot be temperamental or whine/bark when left alone out of respect for neighbors and their own well being :)
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm, so dogs are a walk in the park! My experience with dogs is primarily with working breeds. I’ve always done my own grooming, and currently am mom to a rambunctious Belgian Malinois! I work for an after school program that is currently out for the summer, so I have plenty of time for helping during the day! I have rather small fenced yard, but am very familiar with the local dog park, where I take my dog friendly Malinois, Mace, daily. If in my home, your furry family member should preferably be crate trained, but I am open to conversation!

About: Reliable and caring pet sitter with experience feeding, walking, playing, and providing loving attention to your fur baby while ensuring their safety, comfort and happiness. Available Friday through Sunday with flexible availability during the rest of the week. Happy to accommodate different schedules whenever possible to meet your pet care needs. I live in a quiet, spacious apartment with a dog park and lots of room for walks around the property. I lost my own dog about a year ago, so pet sitting has been such a sweet way for me to still get all the puppy love.
“Mel was beyond friendly and welcoming! Receiving updates from our pups showed how much fun they were having. Can thank her enough for accepting our pups short notice and being flexible. 🤍”

About: Pet Care Experience Hi! I’m Guadalupe. Most people call me Lupe or Lu 😊. Thanks for stopping by! What sets me apart is that I intentionally take on only a small number of pets at a time. I keep my pet count small to ensure every pet receives my full attention and a calm, stress-free stay. My Care Style (What Your Pet Can Expect) I’ve always been an animal lover and enjoy staying active with pets. I provide multiple daily walks, playtime, and quiet companionship so your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule, which allows for plenty of one-on-one time and occasional last-minute requests. I’m a great fit for: • Dogs who prefer a calm, low-stress environment • Senior dogs • Shy or anxious pets • Cat-friendly dogs preferred but not required. About My Home I live in a house with a small, enclosed yard, perfect for safe potty breaks and fresh air. Pets are welcome to relax and lounge throughout my home. I have one resident cat, a lazy, easygoing guy, and I’m happy to manage space or keep pets separated as needed so everyone feels comfortable. There are no children in the home, which helps keep the environment calm and predictable. Walks & Outdoor Time In addition to yard time, I live near parks and walking trails, so your dog will enjoy regular walks, enrichment, and plenty of sniff time. Ideal Fit I’m a great match for pet parents who value quality over quantity and want their pet to receive attentive, personalized care in a peaceful home setting. Important Notes • Please bring your pet’s food, bowls, leash, collar or harness, medications, and any comfort items needed for their stay. • For safety reasons, I’m unable to accommodate overly aggressive dogs. Your pet will be cared for with patience, kindness, and genuine attention, just like family 🤍🐾 My schedule is pretty flexible as a work-from-home. I occasionally have to go into the office but I will let you know in advance. My husband is also available in case we need to make any accommodations to our schedule. I provide a calm, attentive environment and intentionally limit the number of pets I care for so each pet receives close supervision and individualized care. In my home, pets are monitored throughout the day and cared for according to your instructions, including feeding, walks, medications, and routines. I live in a house with a small, enclosed yard for safe potty breaks and also provide regular walks. I have one calm resident cat and can manage space or keep pets separated as needed to ensure everyone stays comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and follow your routines carefully. I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Home Garden on Rover is $42.18 per day (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 191 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Home Garden. 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 Home Garden 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 191 sitters in Home Garden, 92% 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.
