“Chona was great with our dobie - took him in after a very last minute request, which is so difficult to find lately! She provided lots of photos & updates, which we greatly appreciate. She was also very communicative before & during his stay with her. We will definitely be booking with her again, thank you so much Chona!🐶🤎”
“It was my 1st time leaving my dog with anyone.i was to find a sitter the morning I was needing to drop him off that same afternoon she had no problem and was more then I was expecting. they made me feel so comfortable and good about leaving him with Rochelle and her family. When I picked him up he looked so happy and I heard nothing but how much they enjoyed him. I will forsure use them again and recommend them to everyone.”
About: I grew up always having a pup by my side. Even in my teens I had up to 3 dogs at one time. There were times we’d all camp on the porch and have doggie camp outs (we lived in a ranch at that time). My love for dogs has only gotten stronger as I have gotten older. I have one available kennel that has constant running water and is covered along with concrete flooring and is cleaned multi times a day if in use. During your pets stay we will go on multiple walks, lots of petting and if they love it brushings. I genuinely care about the animal and their needs and want nothing more to make them happy. We live on a 40 acre ranch but would keep your pup on a leash during walks.
“This was our first time booking a doggy daycare with Ryckie, she was so great with our dobie Odyn! She made sure to send updates with photos which is super important to us. He had a blast, & was very well taken care of! 10/10 will definitely be booking with her again, thank you Ryckie!🤎🐶”
“Upon meeting Lisa, I felt very much at ease. What a wonderful, caring individual. My dog, Louis, is always nervous when meeting new doggie sitters, but Lisa took him in her arms and I knew that Louis would be fine. I appreciated the update during the day. When picking up, Louis was in great spirits and I knew he had a great day. Thank you Lisa, and look forward to having you care for Louis again, in the fiuture!!”
About: Though I am not well versed in special needs dogs, ones with anxiety I know far to well as my Bella suffers daily. Constant love and affection would be given to ensure your fur babies feel right at home as if you’ve never left. Hello I’m Melissa a newly FT stay at home mom of 2. I homeschool during the morning and have fun by mid afternoon so adding some visitors to my day would be my pleasure! Both my Bombay cat and Deer Chihuahua were rescued. I work with many rescues in the surrounding areas to make sure all strays brought home find their forever homes. I do live in a rental so I do request that they are potty trained! Both my cat and dog are fully house broke and getting up in the night for those midnight tinkle breaks are possible since my dog is a senior and needs to go too. I hope that gives you a little insight to my life and allows you to be comfortable in choosing me as your fur babies mini vaca destination. I have a fully fenced decent size back yard with cameras for lots of room to run and get their wiggles out or just explore and sunbathe. I have a large crate if they prefer some quiet time alone just request you bring their favorite bed or blanket so they have a piece of home to comfort them.
“Weilin is the best! She provided pictures through out the day to show how my puppy Luna was doing. She was very detailed about what activities Luna had done throughout the day and was sure to ask what was allowed and what wasn’t. Luna had such a great time and was so tired she fell asleep early. She’s very responsive for messages and overall will take great care of your pup! Highly recommend her!”
“My girl Luna loves other dogs but is nervous around new people. Ronald was very patient with her, and his two dogs got along well with Luna. She was a happy and healthy dog when I picked her up. He also sent pictures of Luna throughout the day, and you can tell she enjoyed herself. Ronald has a big, fenced back yard for dogs to play. Definitely recommend!”
“Jessica and her family were absolutely amazing with Marley! 🐾 They treated him like one of their own from the moment he arrived. He even got to go on a car ride (which he loves!), enjoyed a few walks including a bonus third walk! and received so much love and snuggle time from the kids. It was clear he was in heaven the entire time. He came home happy, relaxed, and very calm tonight… which all the doodle moms and dads know is not the usual doodle energy level 😂 I’m so grateful for the care and attention they gave him. We would absolutely book with Jessica and her sweet family again! 💛”
“angela kept monty for a few hours and so i was worried he wouldnt get a chance to settle in. thankfully angela had a super calm and gentle energy and he had a place to rest while i was away at a meeting. thank you!”
“Completely the best ! I’m on a weekly day care with her and my dog loves her and she is always happy to go there . Super professional and takes care of my baby very well. She comes home tired from all the fun. I have a picture of her knocked out with her treat right next to her . Love how well she takes care of my baby ! Love love love !”
About: I absolutely love dogs with everything I have. I will provide your baby the best health, care and affection. It would be a pleasure to take care morning potty break outside, go inside to feed breakfast, morning dog park, lunch time, afternoon park, dinner time, potty break outside before sleeping inside with treats, food, and water I live in a very safe and quiet community.

“Gloria took Odyn in for daycare last minute- very much appreciated! She made sure he felt comfortable in her home, & got some good play time in. She provided lots of photos & update. Would definitely book again! Thank you Gloria🤎”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of all types of dogs. From Rottweilers to currently owning a Rat Terrier. I love dogs and have been known to be able to teach them some minor tricks. Most importantly, I love to let them be themselves and have fun. I walk every day for exercise, so walking your dog would not be an issue for me. The more I walk the more weight I’ll lose. I have a one bedroom apartment. But it’s big enough to take care of multiple pets. My dog has three beds herself. I have a playpen area where they can play many dog toys, and treats.
About: I love animals and I love being of service to dog owners who want peace of mind when leaving their pup for the day week or month! I am a full time dog trainer, the only thing I am currently doing is training and caring for dogs full time all day every day. I have a fenced backyard, and I will be watching your pup every moment of the day to ensure their safety. As safety is my number one priority.
About: I enjoy the company of animals and catering to them while their owners are unable to due to work, personal obligations, or vacation. I care for your pet as if they were my own and make sure they are comfortable, well fed, and exercise them as needed. It's truly rewarding to be able to provide a services to alleviate stress and enjoy the company of a four legged buddy where they are made to feel at home.
“It was the first time using this service both Gerald and Debbie were so welcoming! Chloe was a first time visitor and she made herself right at home. We are looking forward to another visit soon. If we could give a ten star rating we would!!! A huge hug to Baloo for being such a gentle giant with Chloe, I hope the two of them become besties over time!!!”
“Elizabeth was amazing!!! She was flexible and willing to manage my energetic puppy. She took her on walks and sent me updates and photos throughout my baby’s stay. I would definitely recommend her as well as use her again.”
About: My love for animals started at a young age; always the one to bring home the stray dog. From the wild to the domestic, I am a true animal advocate. I recognize that dogs have evolved into unique and intelligent beings, deserving of the same respect as any member of the household. I strive to assure you feel at ease knowing that your beloved pet is well taken care of in a safe and secure environment. Daily pics sent via email or text are provided. A plan for your pooch's stay at my Guest House will be tailored to your dog's individual personality, behavioral patterns, and owner preferences.

A convenient location, we have a large shaded and fenced back yard for little dogs to explore and romp. Medium-sized pooches can be accompanied on walks around the pet-friendly neighborhood. A comfy bed awaits your pup for a sound night's sleep. Recently retired, so I can devote even more time to your fury family.

Frequent outdoor activity is offered in a large fenced back yard. Larger dogs can be walked daily, if desired. Your loved one can sleep in the bedroom, alone in a kennel, or with the host’s pooch if he/she prefers. For pets who prefer to stay home, your host assures security of your property when entering and exiting. A mask will be worn at all times while inside your home. I assess the situation to identify any housekeeping issues that need to be addressed to keep your pet and home safe while you are away. Any mail or packages are brought inside. Cat boxes will be thoroughly cleaned at all times. Rest assured that I will take responsibility for your pet as if he/she is one of my own family members. DOG WALKING NOTE.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Linden
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 426 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Linden. 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 Linden 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 426 sitters in Linden, 87% 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.
