“Trish and her family are the best. My dog gets all of the love when she is over and comes home exhausted and has happy dreams. Trish is a great communicator and sends fun pics through the day so my work day is that much better. Moving forward, I will be making arrangements for my dog to stay with Trish and fam when I am out of town so that I can travel assured my pup will have all of the love in my absence.”
About: I recently took a break from dog sitting to focus on caring for my baby. Now that things have settled into a routine, I'm excited to start accepting bookings again! I have 6+ years dog-sitting experience with dogs of many different sizes and temperaments. Personally I have a 85 pound German Shepherd mix, Turbo, a 40 pound labradoodle, Maple, and an 80 pound Rottie/GSD mix named Tater. I thoroughly enjoy playing with them everyday and have learned many training techniques from raising them. I have a great deal of experience caring for a highly allergic and anxious dog. I understand the helplessness that can often come with trying to find a treatment that works. If your dog has allergies/skin issues, or any other special needs, I'm more than happy to help. Rest assured your dog will be given the love and attention they need to feel comfortable in my home. We do have 1 cat (named Sesame) who would prefer to be left alone. If your dog is very reactive around cats this will not be a good fit. I am a stay- at- home mom and my husband works from home, so we can offer a great amount of flexibility with drop-off and pick-up times. Your dog will be supervised 24/7 when in my care. I have a large (2.3 acre), fully-fenced backyard for optimal play! I have three friendly dogs who would love to show your dog all the best sniff spots. We also love going on walks, playing fetch, taking naps, and playing "find it." I've taken a dog CPR class to better understand the warning signs of a dog in distress, and what actions to take in an emergency. Being a pet parent myself, I greatly understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is safe and happy. Therefore, I will always send you multiple updates, with photos, every day throughout your dogs stay. Please let me know if you have any questions! I'd love to schedule a meet and greet. I can't wait to meet your pup!
“Kathryn & Matt Took great care of Charlie. Charlie was always excited when we pulled up to their house. They have a nice setup for your pet to play in the backyard or go on walks in a nice neighborhood.”
“She is amazing, send videos, pictures, and updates throughout the day and is a very kind person. This was our puppy’s first ever doggy daycare experience and im so happy I picked Acausha! I will definitely rebook with her next time I need it!”
“Nazgul and her family were exceptionally warm and attentive with Midnight. From the moment we arrived, I could tell she would settle in quickly and feel at home. Their updates and photos were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was clear she was genuinely cared for. I highly recommend Nazgul and her family to anyone seeking a safe, loving environment for their pet.”
About: I have been taking care of animals for almost 9 years. I have grown up knowing the responsibility of what animals need and how to take care of them. I also truly have a love for animals. I love playing with them. I love being near them, and because I’m so young, I have almost if not more energy to put into the animals. my pets have required special needs and care and knowing that care and experiencing it first hand, I know how to put that learning experiences other situations Currently i’m a high school student so my hours vary. So Monday- Friday i can only walk or care for animals from the times of 5-7am and 3-11pm. The weekends i’m always available and ready to be at your assistance. I love animals so much and always jumping at the opportunity to see one. I have 4 pets of my own and have been carrying the responsibility of keeping them safe for almost ten years. I’ve learned how to keep them safe from other animals and from escaping from home, With this experience in mind i can take what i know and use it with your animals. I know how to crate animals if needed and protected from any outside forces.

“Sierra is great! We had a last minute booking and she was so accommodating. Our boys had a lot of fun with her and I couldn’t believe this but when we came to pick them up she sent them off with little doggy gift bags. So sweet!”
About: Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life, and it’s something I truly enjoy. I’ve helped neighbors and family with walking, feeding, bathing, and general care, and I’ve also fostered kittens. I’m experienced with pets of all ages and temperaments, including seniors who need a gentler approach. Spending time with animals means a lot to me, and I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m a full-time student with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or check-ins, I can adjust my routine to match your pet’s needs and keep their schedule consistent. My schedule is especially open during the summer, with even more daytime availability. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, their safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priority. I take the time to follow your instructions closely—from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and any medications—so your pet feels secure and well cared for. During walks, I prioritize leash safety, stay aware of our surroundings, and choose calm, pet-friendly routes. In your home, I’m respectful of your space, keep things tidy, and ensure everything is secure while you’re away. For boarding and daycare, I offer a calm, structured environment with plenty of attention and supervision. I have a small fenced yard for safe outdoor time, and I’m happy to take dogs to a nearby dog park if requested. I’m mindful of each dog’s comfort level and energy, and I tailor care to match. I provide consistent photo updates for walks, meals, medications, and playtime so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to offer dependable, thoughtful care that gives you complete peace of mind—and helps your pet feel safe, relaxed, and truly at home.
“Renae takes great care of our puppy and she has a great time with her friends while she is there. Came home and napped, mission accomplished! Renae is super accommodating and very responsive to any communications. Lola has a home away from home when needed.”
“They were amazing with Moose! We had a last minute need for dog sitting and they were able to accommodate within 30 minutes. We felt quite lucky. They even provided their own leash, water bowl, bed, and treats so we didn’t have to leave his stuff at all. Thank you both!!!”
“Eman and Robby were amazing hosts for Sadie. They made her feel very comfortable throughout her stay and sent lots of pictures during the day! Would highly recommend!”
“I’m so thankful Lori was able to accommodate a last minute daycare request. We had something else set up that fell through, and we found a GEM of a sitter/daycare location!! I got frequent updates and pics, which showed me how comfortable my pup was in Lori’s home. He had a great time playing with her dogs and the others at daycare, and she was gracious to give him some yummy treats, which he LOVED! 🍉 Maverick had such a good time he literally didn’t want to come home with me when I picked him up - soooo funny! I will def book Lori again, knowing how much she loved hosting Mav and constantly how much he loved being there ❤️”
“Alicia was great with providing updates with Dino. He had plenty of enrichment being with Alicia and her daughter. It was great to have him with a fellow dog about his size and such great people to care for him. I would book with her again!”
About: Cats, dogs, even mini-pigs served through Rover! Cat owner for 15 years, adult and senior with and without dietary restrictions and post-medical care. Dog experience too but not my own. Being patient, kind and understanding is most important with humans and animals. I work from home and set my own schedule for activities and obligations. I don’t overload my schedule so I can give myself and any obligations a fair and dedicated amount of time I introduce myself to animals with trust and kindness and let them introduce themselves and have fun at their own pace! Do they like walks, fetch, cuddling? If your dog is present for doggy day care with me, cats will be restricted to a room for the duration and the dog will have run of the house with supervised time in my backyard in addition to walks
“Claudia went above and beyond to help us out with our young puppy on a busy week when one of us was out of town. She was so flexible with her schedule, coming and caring for our dogs at our home. She even cleaned up our dog run, which was so kind and totally unexpected! This was our second time having Claudia care for our dogs, and we'd look forward to her help again!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - La Jolla Amago
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,430 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across La Jolla Amago. 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 La Jolla Amago 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 1,430 sitters in La Jolla Amago, 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.
