“Jasmine had a daytime stay with Rochelle and her lovely family. I was so happy to see how much her children enjoyed having Jasmine. They were all calling her a princess and asking when she could come back. I would highly recommend this sweet sitter ☺️🐾🐾”
“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!”
“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!🤎🐶”
“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!🐶🤎”
“Jillian did an amazing job with our pup. She is great with dogs and has wonderfully positive attitude. I would recommend Jillian to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, dog care professional.”
“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: 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.
“Elizabeth was so good with Rocco! She made sure to keep me updated throughout the day which I really appreciated because it was our first time leaving Rocco with a sitter.”
“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!”
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.
“My dog Cassie has stayed with Annmarie before and has done very well with her. This is the first time I had Cassie watched just for daycare one day. She did very well, Cassie came back happy and tired from all the fun she had with Annmarie and the other pups. I recommend Annmarie highly!!”
About: Hi! My name is Mitzi, and I’m 24 years old. Dogs have been a huge part of my life for more than half of it, and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I currently have two spayed Shih Tzus and a friendly Doberman, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. My dogs do great around other dogs, and I’ve also cared for family members’ and friends’ pets while they’ve been away on vacation, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can fully trust with your fur baby. I have experience with both long-haired and short-haired dogs, and I genuinely love everything that comes with caring for them. Whether it’s daily walks, potty breaks, feeding on a regular schedule, keeping up with grooming and appointments, or just giving them love and attention, I make sure every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Dogs are honestly my way of de-stressing, and spending time with them is something I truly enjoy. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always do my best to make them feel loved while you’re away. I am in nursing school, so i can either come during online classes or after in person class! My schedule is also open part time I live in a spacious household, my house is fenced front and back! I can also crate train your dog in your home or mine
About: With over 8 years of experience in caring for dogs and a lifetime of growing up with them, I have developed a deep understanding and love for these furry companions. When your fur baby stays with us, they become a part of our family. From puppies to seniors requiring medication, I have cared for dogs of all ages and health conditions, including diabetic dogs that need shots twice a day. I have also provided assistance to dogs with mobility issues, ensuring their comfort and safety. As a full-time stay-at-home mom, I am available throughout the day to provide constant care and attention to your beloved pet. Although I may need to run occasional errands or drop off my daughter at school, I prioritize being at home to cater to your dog's needs. My dedication stems from having a disabled son who thrives in the comfort of our home environment. Rest assured, your fur baby will have the freedom to roam in our fenced yard, enjoying in and out privileges. To ensure that each dog's unique requirements are met, I make it a point to gather as much information as possible about them. This allows me to tailor their care specifically to their needs, regardless of what they may be. Additionally, I feed each dog separately, carefully observing their eating habits. For the safety and peace of mind of both the dog and myself, I crate new dogs at night until we become acquainted with each other. This helps establish a sense of trust and familiarity, ensuring a calm and comfortable environment for everyone involved. When your fur baby stays with us, they can expect not only the utmost care but also an abundance of love. I take pride in treating every dog as if they were my own, creating a nurturing and welcoming home away from home for them. New customers please ask me for my promo discount of $20 off your first booking on Rover if you are new to Rover. I am a full time stay at home mom. Therefore, I am home all day unless I run errands of picking up and dropping off my daughter at school or doing shopping for the house. Other then that I am home all day since I have a son who is disabled and enjoys being home. I have a fenced yard. So they are allowed in and out privileges. I like to know as much as possible about your fur baby so I know how to make sure I'm caring for them properly, regardless of what there needs are. I do feed everyone separately to see what is or is not being eaten. I also crate at night new dogs always until them and I learn each other.

About: I have been an animal lover, my whole life. Besides being a certified dog trainer, I also have four golden retrievers that I absolutely love. They are my whole world. I have raised mini puppies as well and I am definitely a dog person.. I’m that person that dogs walk up to and wag their tail. I seem to know how to talk to them lol. I’m currently working part time and I have a very flexible schedule so I am totally willing to work around yours. I would be happy to board your dogs over the weekend or just walk them during the day or however, you need me to. I have a huge backyard, as well as a dog run so I am able to separate your dog from my dogs if need be. Although my dogs are friendly and I’m sure they would get along. I would be happy to create your dog if necessary and I do have an extra crate. I can basically accommodate any of your needs. I live in the country so it’s great for taking dogs for a walk, but also not far from town.
“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!!!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Linden
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 434 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 434 sitters in Linden, 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.
