“My puppy came back healthy and tuckered out from playing with Denise’s pups! She sent me updates several times and was very responsive. Will definitely leave my little guy with her again!”
“Rekha is very caring and made me feel comfortable leaving my puppy in her care. He is usually timid; however, he took an immediate liking to her. She took him for a walk and gave him lots of attention. I will definitely rebook her again!”
“Wendy was so kind with my baby and helped make sure he adjusted well. She showed so much care and my baby came back as happy as can be. She was also so understanding when we needed to switch our pick up and drop off times. Thank you so much Wendy. Would definitely book again!”
“Florene was highly recommended to me by a friend and certainly did not disappoint. She was super accommodating and communicative and really shows she cares a lot about the pups in her care. I also greatly appreciated the frequent photo and video updates. Will definitely be back!”
About: I’ve grown up in an animal-filled home and currently have three dogs of my own. For the past two years, I’ve been a dog sitter/dog walker, and have provided services such as; drop-in visits, doggy daycare, overnight house sitting, bathing, and walks. I love being around animals and want to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for! I’m available 6 days a week, excluding Mondays, from 11 AM to 10 PM. I’m currently looking for part-time work and would love to help fill my schedule by caring for animals! I have a fenced backyard, a bunch of toys and treats, and two friendly dogs who love to play. I can separate dogs if needed.
“Reginay has been SOOO unbelievably accommodating with my crazy schedule; she lets me work out unusual drop off/pick up times, lets me schedule last minute whenever I need it (when she’s open), and is just incredibly communicative. My dog, Penny, just loves her. She recognizes Reginay’s place when we pull up and is physically and audibly thrilled to see her every time!”
“Kat and Bob were really kind and patient with my anxious Kupo. They gave updates and pictures that helped put me at ease that he was being taken care of. I really appreciate the effort made to make him comfortable, especially around other dogs and when he wasn’t eating. Absolutely wonderful people!”
“Baelfire really loved staying there and I was constantly checking up on him and Khyli answered all of my questions and sent pictures of my fur baby. She is so kind and I definitely will be a repeat customer.”
About: Hello, fellow pet lovers! I'm Carrie. I've been living in a great community in Elk Grove, CA for over 16 years. My family lives in a single house with a moderate size and secured fenced backyard. For dog boarding, the doggies have a dedicated spaces in my TV room so that I can always accompany with and take care of them. My TV room has a sliding door and make the doggies easier to play outside in a safe and fenced backyard for every 2 hours. Playing at my backyard is always the best for dog boarding than walking outside in an unfamiliar environment. I'm here to ensure your pets have a loving, safe & comfortable environment while you enjoy a weekend getaway or take care of those long-overdue errands. With over 20 years of combined pet experience, including caring for my own two dogs (one currently living with us), I genuinely adore meeting new furry friends and connecting with our neighbors. Whether it's a quick walk or several days of care, I've built a reputation for being reliable and loving pet sitters. Living just a stone's throw from a beautiful CSD run community park means your dog will enjoy plenty of fresh air and exercise. Plus, I live in a single house with a great securely fenced backyard offers a safe space for them to play and do their business. I also provide check-in services to your furry family members at home if they feel more comfortable that way! I can't wait to meet your beloved pet and provide them with the same care and affection I give our own. Feel free to reach out to me for any questions or concerns!!– I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I'm a home maker which means I can and will dedicate our full attention 24/7 to looking after your pets, ensuring they receive all the love and care they need. For pets that need to be taken out or checked up on, I can do that as well with no pets will be left behind! I live in a single house with a securely fenced backyard where your pets can roam freely and safely, along with indoor gates to keep them out of places they shouldn't be. Upon request, I also have leashes for fun park walks and cozy crates for those much-needed naps.
“My bichon loves visiting her! He doesn’t pull away when we arrive like he used to at a previous kennel. Thankfully she’s been able to take him for us with short notice at times. We are happy repeat customers!”
“Domynique was amazing with my puppy Ollie. She sent updates and would provide walks along with just great quality time. She was super accommodating to my commute that she volunteered to meet me half way. Ollie always came home ready for a nap after a great day with Domynique, will definitely be booking again and would recommend 🥰”
“Sunshine and Shannon are wonderful and were so kind to me and my pup! They send multiple updates throughout the day and are very understanding of your dogs needs. Thank you both for looking after Ollie!”
“If you're looking for great customer service and good animal care experience ... Amanda's your gal. She listened to my needs, over-delivered and was super communicative with me during Crawford's stay at her home. It was my first time with a dog sitter (& I knew I could trust Rover, because I'm a Rover sitter & know they do a background check) ... but I was still nervous. My dog is 5 months young and although well-adjusted & potty trained, is very vulnerable. She was sensitive to this; I left him with her feeling i could trust her 100% ... I received photos and updates the entire time I was away. Highly recommend.”
“Our dog Greta had a wonderful time staying with Brandee for an afternoon/evening. She is looking forward to returning to Brandee's house for boarding. Brandee is very warm and caring, and I knew Greta was in good hands.”
“Catherine and Ernie are excellent! They really provide good care and great concern, not just going thru the motions of dog sitting. I trust them to always do the right thing and everything for Carli ❤️”
“I booked Justin for boarding, and Justin was very nice and welcoming! He sent me very thorough updates about my dog and he is very easy to communicate with. I had no issues and I highly recommend him!”
About: I grew up with large dogs, rodents, and have owned many scaly friends. I befriend every stray cat I meet and I stop to help whenever I see a dog that's escaped their home and its safe to do so. I also used to ride horses when I lived in the country. Currently I take care of my thumbnail dart frogs and wish for more animal friends. I am currently unemployed but work on developing my own video game at home. When I am employed my jobs are exclusively remote. I like to go on an evening walk and sometimes I will be out of the house for a few hours at a time. Occasionally I might be out for the night but its generally about once a week or less. My home has a fenced yard, an atrium, 3 bedrooms and 2 living spaces. I also have an alarm system that is armed at night. I am happy to let dogs out in the yard and take them on walks. At my clients home I am happy to sit with your pets to keep them company and read a comic book, draw on my tablet, or play a game on my Switch.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,442 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Hood. 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 Hood 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 October 2026, there are 1,442 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.

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.
