About: Hello! I’m a Zoology student working toward becoming a veterinarian and a Military Conservation Agent veteran. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, including emergency care and working alongside veterinarians, and I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. With my background, I can also provide informed medical guidance when needed. I’m especially a great fit if your dog needs extra care—such as medical support or recovery monitoring. I can administer medications, closely track their condition, and offer cross-border vet services to Mexico, either accompanying you or independently taking your dog for care. My goal is to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. As a full-time student, I work around my class schedule and maintain a high level of flexibility. My only fixed commitments are my lab sessions, but outside of those times, I can adjust my availability to fit your needs, including early mornings, evenings, and most daytime hours. I have professional experience handling high-drive even dangerous animals, including wolfdogs and wildlife. I know how to manage strong breeds safely and calmly. I respect your home and property. I use professional handling techniques to ensure safety during walks, and I am fully capable of providing basic medical care and behavioral support if any issues arise during my stay."
“Agueda was a wonderful sitter and took great care of my pup! She sent updates and photos during the stay. My dog seemed relaxed and comfortable in her space. I absolutely recommend her and hope to see her again in the future!”
“PeeP really seemed to enjoy his stay with Holger. We stayed in fairly recent contact and although PeeP tends to have separation anxiety. He showed no signs of it once we left.. I can certainly recommend Holger for any ones fur baby.”

About: As a full-time retired “dog grandpa,” I’ve spent over 50 years caring for dogs of every shape, size, and personality. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for decades to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pups just like my own. I currently share my home with a friendly spaniel mix who loves making new friends and helps create a warm, social atmosphere for visiting dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and happiest when I’m surrounded by wagging tails. From energetic youngsters to sweet seniors, I know how to keep each dog comfortable, confident, and cared for. Now that I’m fully retired, caring for pets has become one of the most enjoyable parts of my day. I’m home most of the time, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks, and peaceful company throughout the day. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays, and my open schedule allows me to keep your pet’s routine steady morning strolls, afternoon cuddles, or extra playtime, whatever they need. My home is set up with pets in mind. I have a secure fenced backyard with a large pet door so dogs can safely go in and out for fresh air and play. My spaniel mix is friendly and loves having canine company. We take daily walks to nearby parks, perfect for sniffing, exploring, and stretching those legs. Inside the house, pets are welcome to relax wherever they feel comfortable and yes, that includes the furniture. I provide a calm, supervised, and cozy environment, and I’m experienced with crates, medications, special diets, and supporting dogs with different energy levels or routines. Your dog will be treated like a cherished family member with all the gentle attention, structure, and warmth you’d expect from a loving retired grandpa.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a little girl. I have always had dogs around me. When I was a teen, I started dog sitting and dog walking in my neighborhood. This is something my dad and I would do together. As an adult, I am my friends’ and family’s go to person when it comes to help them with their pets. They will always call me when they go on vacations and need help. I am looking forward to expand my network of people I can help 🙂. Bonus is my own sweet little lady, Olive, who loves all dogs! She would be so happy to have new friends! I work from home part time. I am always home, and only go in and out to get my son from school. I walk my dog four times per day. Two of these four times per day are longer walks in the neighborhood or to the park. I keep dogs on the leash at all time when we are outside. I have a fenced backyard where they can be outside and lay in the sun, and can’t escape. They also have access to water and food as required by the owner. My dog Olive is super friendly, and loves being around other dogs. She is around 15 lbs. I have a cat who is friendly but does not want to do much with other dogs. He mostly stays away.
“I loved Melinda, I don't trust anybody with my dog he is the closest thing I have to a child and she treated him as such. Normally people are scared of pit bulls but she welcomed him with open arms. I'd recommend her to any and everyone. Nice house, she walks them, takes pics, let you bring your own food and toys and does meet and greets and will tell you honestly, if she cannot watch your dog. Me and benny both give 4 thumbs up!”
“Pamela is a very sweet lady:) she took our Nova for a day and when we got there she slowly introduced her to the other dogs before letting her run. She is very cautious and handles the dogs very well. I would definitely recommend her services to others.”
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life—starting with our sweet family dog growing up. Now, I share my home (and heart!) with two more pups I co-parent with my girlfriend: a small Shih Tzu and a senior mix, along with our youngest frenchie, Cleo. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, secure, and loving environment for every pet. I follow your routines closely, ensure clean food/water areas, and monitor for any signs of stress or behavior changes. I never leave pets unattended outdoors and I’m always mindful of doors, gates, and other safety measures. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priority. Availability: I do work a 8-5 Mon-Fri job. I am open to house sitting if your pup can be okay with me being gone during those hours. I work in the El Cajon area so if you’re close by, I could stop to check on your pup during my lunch break. I try to accommodate as much as possible 😊 Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I prioritize flexible scheduling so your pet gets the attention they need—whether it’s morning walks, mealtime, enrichment play, or bedtime cuddles. I work from home and spend most of my time indoors or outside on walks, so I’m able to provide consistent companionship, love, and care throughout the day. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, secure, and loving environment for your pet. I follow your routines closely, ensure clean food/water areas, and monitor for any signs of stress or changes in behavior. I never leave pets unattended outdoors, and I’m mindful about doors, gates, and anything that could pose a risk. I want your pet to feel safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for at all times.
“Vanessa has been great taking care of both our Cane Corso and our Frenchie Terrier. She was super accommodating taking our reservation last minute and both Loki and Batman enjoyed their time w her. Batman had a follow up stay w her and came home relaxed and calm! Would recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: I've loved and have taken care of dogs my whole life. I'm naturally curious about them and believe there is no such thing as a bad dog. I am working toward becoming a canine trainer and am currently under apprenticeship. Caring for dogs is very rewarding for me and a true passion of mine. My friends and family have sought me out for advice and to care for their pets and I would love the opportunity to care for yours as well. I have a flexible work schedule and am available for boarding 7 nights per week and for sitting every day. I can also pick up and drop off for an additional fee. I have a large fenced back yard (about 1/8 of an acre), with mixed concrete, dirt with shade. Your pup will be able to play inside and out, and will find it hard not to get along with my 8 year old Labradoodle, Maui.
About: My senior dog was my very best friend and companion. I adopted him when my cousin wasn't able to care for him anymore. He passed away last May at the age of 14 after battling ongoing diseases/old age. We walked every day and he also had a big fenced garden to play in. I will make sure your dog has all the attention they need, plenty of restroom breaks, and their daily walks. I will treat them as my own furry friend. I am a stay at home mom and am available throughout the day to ensure they receive the attention they need. I am able to give your dog their daily routine, potty breaks, feeding times, and walks/playtime/exercise as needed. I will care for them as my own and make sure they feel at home. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of grass to play in. I have a 4 year old who is very good with animals because he grew up with my senior dog when he was born. I have doggy beds/couches for your dog to sit/sleep on. I no longer have my senior dog with me so it will be just me and my 4 year old. I am available at all times of the day since I stay at home and can monitor your companion.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lincoln Acres
Cristina was amazing!! She was very kind, welcoming and detailed in caring for our three girls and making sure they were comfortable and safe in her home/property. She provided updates throughout the stay and made us feel peace of mind they were in good care. Will definitely use Cristina again for future daycare needs.
Dubu and I had a wonderful experience with Soohyun during my business trip to San Diego. Communication was great, and I really appreciated the frequent photos and updates throughout the day. Dubu went to daycare with her for three days, and it was clear how comfortable and happy he felt. I could tell Soohyun genuinely cared about him and made sure he felt cared for and loved.
Chantel was absolutely amazing with my dog! She’s incredibly kind, attentive, and you can tell she genuinely loves what she does. She kept me updated frequently with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog was clearly well cared for and got so much love and attention. I would 100% recommend Chantel to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter I’ll definitely be booking with her again!
Thea was super friendly and very welcoming to us but with Kyro and that made me extremely happy and i felt more at ease. We just recently moved to SD and using Rover as well. She made the experience wonderful. Kyro had a blast with the other dogs and i’m pretty sure he was super satisfied as well ☺️
Berenice is absolutely amazing! She cared for my one year old pup, Mini, while I had a mandatory in-office work meeting, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She graciously agreed to watch Mini for my entire shift, which gave me such peace of mind. From the moment we arrived, Mini was overjoyed to see her, that alone spoke volumes! Berenice is attentive, kind, and clearly loves what she does. She allowed Mini to safely interact with her son, which was such a sweet and thoughtful touch. I highly recommend Berenice to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you so much from both Mini and me!
Bobbi had such a good time at Cherishs house! She got to meet all new types of animals and hang with some other pups too. Cherish was super responsive and sent tons of photos throughout the day so I felt comfortable. It is so relieving to know that I have a safe and fun place for Bobbi to be when I have to work long hours!
Heather was fantastic with Chief! She was warm, reliable, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. She took great care of him and made sure he felt comfortable and well loved during his time with her. We really appreciated her updates and could tell Chief was happy and relaxed. We’d absolutely book with Heather again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover sitter.
Kat is awesome! Very welcoming and sweet. She invited me to her home for a meet and greet prior to the appointment to make sure everything would run smoothly. I felt very comfortable leaving my little one in her care. She was quick to respond and provided images and details about P-Nut's stay. I will definitely be asking her to dog sit again. She is a natural dog mama, big and small. Thank you so much for your help!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Lincoln Acres
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Lincoln Acres on Rover is $36.24 per day (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Lincoln Acres 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 3,245 sitters in Lincoln Acres, 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.
