“Gloria was wonderful with my dog and took such great care of her during her stay! My pup can be anxious in new places, but she came home calm and clearly well-loved. Gloria was very kind and sent regular updates throughout my dog’s stay, which gave me peace of mind. Her husband was also kind enough to help when I dropped off and picked up my dog. I appreciated how attentive Gloria was to my senior dog’s needs, including her medication schedule. My dog means the world to me, and I would absolutely trust Gloria with her again! 🩷”
“Our puppy Moby loves Katie and would run up to her when he sees her. Katie is always willing to care for Moby whenever we need her, even on short notice. She communicates with us during Moby’s stay with her, with pictures and comments about how he’s doing. We love Katie too because she is a caring lady who loves our puppy as much as we do.”
About: I got my first pet when I was six years old. Since then, I have been taking care of dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, and fish for over 15 years. My friends, family, and neighbors rely on me to feed their pets, take them on walks, bathe them and even trim their nails, if needed. I love all pets and enjoy taking care of them as if they were my own. I can fit your schedule anytime with a week’s notice. For walks, mornings are more favorable due to weather conditions. For emergency care, one day advance would be preferred. I have a fenced yard where your dogs can play outside on the grass or they can enjoy indoor play with cool A/C. They’ll have their own room or they can be crated if needed.
“Natalie watched our Siberian Husky mix twice while we explored Joshua Tree Nat’l Park. She was awesome to work with and took great care of our older dog, who is on a few meds. We received several pictures each day and Blance was clearly happy when we picked her up and super excited when we dropped her off the second day, so we know she had a great experience.”
“Jill is an awesome dog sitter and great person! Our golden retriever pup loves staying with her, so my husband and I get time to go out and play golf! Hard to get our dog to leave her house at the end of the day. Jill is gentle with our dog , who loves to play and cuddle with Jill. I would highly recommend Jill to care for you per!❤️ She is a gem.”
“Our big girl Bee had a fabulous vacation at the Brandon and Billy “resort!” This is the second time they have cared for Bee while we enjoy the tennis tournament and it hopefully won’t be the last. They are wonderful with her.”
“I felt really comfortable leaving Aya with Jackson. He is clearly a very experienced dog sitter and I couldn’t have been happier with his service. He also kept me updated throughout my dog’s stay which was great. I will 100% contact Jackson the next time I am in the area.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Ruby! She took such great care of Luther and kept me updated with adorable photos. It was clear that they truly love animals and treated my pet like their own. Lu came back happy, well-exercised, and stress-free. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend Ruby to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter. Will definitely book again!”
“Perfect reason why this service is so good. Booked and used without any trouble, Michelle was super nice, accommodating and responsive. Sent me updates and made me feel like our little dog was well taken care of while we were golfing. I highly recommend her.”
“My husband took Rocky over to Joan's house to see how he would do prior to an upcoming trip. This was the first time we left him with someone other than family and I can't thank Joan enough for the pictures. It relieved a lot of stress for me and I know he will be in great hands when we are out of town for several days. Thanks again Joan, see you next week!! Colleen”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Macomber Palms
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 309 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Macomber Palms. 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 Macomber Palms 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 309 sitters in Macomber Palms, 90% 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.
