“Michelle was great with our anxious senior pup! He has separation anxiety and she created a very calming environment for him to hang out at and had a great system to ensure that he was comfortable. She was communicative and easy to plan with. We’ll definitely book with her again!”

“Stacy was great! She was able to take care of Emmett on a pretty short notice. She was extremely accommodating and took so many pictures of him.

About: Hi there! I’m an experienced Rover sitter with several years of professional animal care experience and many happy repeat clients. Caring for animals isn’t just a job for me, it’s something I genuinely love! Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them during a drop-in visit, they’ll be treated like one of my own ❤️ What I Offer: 🏡 Dog Boarding: A safe, loving home where your pup can relax, play, and enjoy plenty of one-on-one attention. 🐾 Doggy Day Care: A fun, structured environment for dogs who need companionship and care while you’re away. 🏠 Drop-In Visits: Reliable visits for feeding, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and lots of love. My Experience: 🐱 6 Years of Cat Care: I have extensive experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities. 🐬 5 Years as a Dolphin Trainer: I worked as a dolphin trainer, including work connected with the U.S. Navy. This experience gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior, communication, positive reinforcement, and safety. 🏥 2 Years in a Veterinary Office: My time in a veterinary clinic gave me hands-on experience with medications, animal health, recognizing signs of illness, and handling pets with patience and confidence. 🐶 Dog Mom: I also have a friendly young dog who loves having a playmate. I understand how important routine, exercise, and individualized care are for every dog. My Home: To provide the best experience possible, I only accept one guest dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog plenty of attention while creating a calm, low-stress environment. For everyone’s safety and comfort, guest dogs should: ✔️ Be friendly with other dogs ✔️ Be comfortable around a toddler (I have a 1.5 year old) ✔️ Be respectful of cats We do have one cat in the home, but she mostly keeps to herself and spends much of the day relaxing in another part of the house. She rarely interacts with the dogs, so most boarding pups hardly notice she’s there. A Quick Note for Pet Parents: I’m a stay-at-home mom to a toddler. During drop-in visits, there may occasionally be times when my son has to accompany me if my wife is working. He is calm around animals and can remain safely secured in his stroller if preferred. I always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety and am happy to discuss what works best for you. Why Choose Me? ⭐ One guest dog at a time for personalized care ⭐ Professional animal training and veterinary experience ⭐ Calm, patient, and dependable ⭐ Frequent photo and video updates ⭐ A loving home where your pet will be treated like family I’d love to meet you and your furry family member and help make your time away completely worry-free! Being a stay-at-home mom means I’m home for much of the day, allowing me to provide plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship for boarding and daycare guests. My flexible schedule also makes it easy to accommodate drop-in visits throughout the day. I strive to create a calm, loving environment where every pet feels safe, comfortable, and right at home. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, crate routines, and any special requests to help keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. For boarding and daycare, I provide a calm, clean, and supervised home environment. I intentionally accept only one guest dog at a time so I can give each pup my full attention while creating a safe, low-stress experience for both my dog and yours. Guest dogs should be friendly with other dogs, comfortable around a toddler, and respectful of cats. My own dog is friendly but with that said, I believe it’s always important to have a backup plan. If the dogs ever need a break from one another or a situation calls for extra space, my dog is crate trained and happily goes into her crate on command. I’m also happy to crate your dog if that’s part of their normal routine or if it’s the safest option for everyone. My goal is to ensure every dog feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for throughout their stay. We also have one cat in the home, but she mostly keeps to herself and spends much of the day relaxing in another area of the house. She rarely interacts with the dogs, so most boarding pups hardly notice she’s there. For drop-in visits, I’ll make sure your pet has everything they need before I leave—from fresh food and water to playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I would my own and leave it just as I found it. Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and plenty of photos while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and receiving the same love and care I’d give my own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Imperial Beach
Priscilla is a fantastic dog sitter. Our pup loved spending time with her over the weekend and was visibly excited to see her again. She was also very flexible to pet sit in two different locations and stayed later upon last minute unplanned request. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

We love how much Daisy & Rico love and care for our Waffles. Waffles loves it when he gets to spend time with them whenever we need to head somewhere for a day/weekend where we can't take him. We know he's always in good and loving hands when we book with Daisy! Thank you for being such an amazing family to our fur baby!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Imperial Beach on Rover is $54.39 per day (as of August 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 .

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 Imperial Beach 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 3,051 sitters in Imperial Beach, 85% 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.
