“They are AMAZING!!! Our girl is normally very timid and anxious in new settings but she jumped in with full confidence and it’s all thanks to them! We are so thankful they were able to take her in with such short notice. She is exhausted from all the fun she had throughout her time with them. They kept us in the loop multiple times throughout the hour and sent many fabulous pictures. ONE MILLION % recommend.”
“Dolores is incredible — kind, genuine, and trust worthy. I dropped off my Aussie for a day so we could enjoy Knott's, and I am so glad I did. She sent me several updates with pictures of my pup having fun and enjoying her large yard. Her dog is a gentle giant and was so accommodating and kind to my dog. Her daughter was gentle and so sweet with my pup as well. Their home is clean and clearly very dog friendly, even with an extra guest room for their Rover guests to enjoy and dine in solo. She clearly understands dog behavior and cares for all animals dearly. I would absolutely book again and recommend for all dogs!”
“Zoë had such a great time with Sabrina. The communication and pictures during the day helped me to know that my puppy was well-cared for. I would definitely use Sabrina for doggie daycare again!”
“Katherine was great with our dogs, took them on adventures and significant doggie park time. Perfect for taking care of our dogs while we went to Knotts for the day. Hands down one of the best sitters we've found on Rover so far, highly recommend!!”
“Wendy was my dog's first Rover sitter. The experience could not have been any better! He sent updates and photos throughout the day, and took amazing care of my fur baby. I will definitely be asking him again!”
“Alina is amazing! She sent me pics and kept me updated throughout the day while watching my pup! Apollo can be anxious with new people but warmed up to her quickly! Will confidently book with her again!”
“Having used other good ROVER sitters before, Maritza tops them all. Lots of pictures, potty breaks, playing with other dogs, etc. He always has a great night’s sleep after spending the day at Maritza‘s.”
About: I enjoy spending lots of time playing, walking and even a little training. I have also had senior dogs that need a little extra care and attention. I am recently unemployed and have lots of time available. I would love nothing more than to help as many pets/pet parents as I can. Dogs can enjoy lots of play time and walks as well as maybe a little place time and snacks. I have had senior dogs as well that just need some down time and cuddles. I have a big fenced in backyard that allows for lots of playtime or maybe some rest in the shade.
About: I grew up with dogs, and so did my wife, so caring for them has always been a part of our lives. We recently said goodbye to our own dog after 16 wonderful years together, and we know how important it is to find someone you can trust with a beloved family member. Because I work from home, your dog will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. We provide a safe, comfortable, dog-friendly home where every pup is treated with patience and care. Whether your dog enjoys relaxing, playing, or going for walks, we’ll do our best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel right at home. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. My flexible schedule allows me to give dogs consistent attention and keep them on their normal routine Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and no other pets in the home, allowing us to focus on your dog’s individual needs. Our 10-year-old daughter has grown up around dogs and is gentle and respectful with them. Because I work from home, your dog will receive close supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’ll follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“It was our first time leaving our Frenchie and Sue made it easy to do so! She sent me updates throughout the day to let us know how he was doing and what he was up to! Would def recommend Sue! 😊”
“Kayla is an amazing dog sitter! She has excellent communication & sent several pictures throughout the day. She was also very flexible with a last minute request and went above and beyond with walks, ensuring that my fur baby was nice and tired. Would absolutely recommend!!!”
“Jacquelyne was an amazing sitter and took such great care of my cockapoo for a few days. I always felt good about dropping him off and knew he was in good hands. Great communication and photos along the way as well!”
About: i’ve worked with animals over 6 years I have pets of my own so I know that we just want the best for them. I’ve worked with huge pets and small pets and even some with medical conditions so if they need to be accommodated just let me know I am currently working part time so I will be updating my schedule constantly but I will be available on weekdays and even weekends . I want your pet to feel like their in a familiar space so whatever you do to make them feel comfortable I will do my best to match that
“Lisa and her partner were great with my senior pup for his first time at daycare! Communication with her was easy and she always responded quickly. I was able to drop him off early in the morning and I felt completely at ease leaving him there for half a day. Within 20mns of dropping him off, I received a picture and video of Chewie. I would definitely recommend and use her services again!”
“Last-minute booking due to the Garden Grove/Stanton evacuation, and I was so grateful to find Sara on Rover. She is amazing, caring, and super knowledgeable about dog behavior. My Snow is a shy girl, but with Sara she felt comfortable going on walks and car rides. Sara gave hourly updates and sent lots of pictures throughout the day. She is absolutely a gem, and I would definitely recommend her for dog daycare!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Los Alamitos
We had a wonderful experience with Lindsay. My puppy is pretty shy and was a bit nervous with her dogs at our first meet and greet. She suggested a half day of doggy care for her to see how it would go, and it was such a good idea. I appreciated the suggestion and the opportunity for my puppy to settle in and feel comfortable before scheduling a longer period of time. Lindsay gave me frequent updates with pictures so I could see how she was doing. It went well, and my puppy was very well cared for. It was a positive experience, and I definitely plan to book with her again.

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.

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.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
