“Today was my puppy’s first Rover experience and she had a blast with Melissa! Melissa shared lots of fun photos and videos throughout the day which helped keep my first time nerves at bay. Little Roo came home happy and sleepy - a sign of a great day had!”
“Alfonsus and Ayni were great, kept us informed about our fur baby’s comfort level throughout the day with photos and videos. So good to know our little girl was having fun and in good hands!”
“April took wonderful care of Toby during his day with her! She made sure he got plenty of walks and sent tons of adorable photos to keep me updated. She’s incredibly friendly, easy to communicate with, and very responsive. I could tell Toby had a great time. I would definitely trust and recommend April!”
“My (and my dog, Sully's) first time with Susan. Susan's got her act together. She knows all the right questions to ask and even went above and beyond to make sure Sully was ok throughout the day and night. Would definitely recommend Susan.”
“Mary had a nice home environment that I felt very comfortable leaving my 10 month old puppy at. I really appreciated the communication and photos throughout the half-day drop off!”
About: I grew up with both cats and dogs, so I truly understand how much they mean to a family. I genuinely love caring for animals and always adapt to each pet’s unique personality. I take into account their breed, age, and energy level to make sure they get the right balance of attention, play, and rest. Living in Santa Monica has been amazing—I walk or run by the beach every day, often twice, and it’s even better with a dog by my side. I’m excited to meet you and your fur baby! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work remotely from home. That means your dog will have plenty of company, attention, and love throughout the day. I’m here for walk breaks, playtime, and snuggles—making sure your pup feels safe, cared for, and never alone for long. I care for dogs with the same love and attention I give my own. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a safe, calm, and nurturing environment. I follow your pet’s routine, give plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles, and always prioritize their comfort, health, and happiness. Every dog is treated like family.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I naturally connect with pets and understand their emotional needs, whether they need play, structure, or gentle comfort. I care for each animal as if it were my own, with warmth, patience, and a peaceful presence. My goal is that your pet feels completely safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I’ll send photos and updates and make sure you feel confident every step of the way I’m currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends, Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays :) I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes to keep pets in a familiar, low-stress environment. I’m very respectful of people’s space, follow all household rules, and make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and well-supervised. I maintain clean feeding areas, stick to your routines, send frequent updates, and treat your home with the same care I give to your pet.
“Madeline and her pup Chewy were so sweet and welcoming. She was so communicative and detailed that it made it so much easier. She made my pup Chili Cheese feel right at home and I will be booking with her again!”
“Probably the best experience I could have asked for. I was very nervous leaving my pup with someone new and with other dogs, but she had the time of her life, and slept all night after. Brittany and Joe were incredibly friendly, responsive, and took wonderful care and attention to detail for our puppy. Would highly recommend”
“5 out 5 stars… From the moment my fur baby, Luna recognized where she was going her body started to vibrate with excitement. Alex, is an incredible dog sitter who not only provided the cutest pictures throughout the day, but he was also able to address a concern I had about Luna with thoughtfulness and intelligence which speaks highly to his training abilities. Luna always returned to me at the end of the day a tired and well balanced pup. For these reasons and so much more, I highly recommend Alex for your dog sitting needs and look forward to rebooking him in the near future.”
“Aleesa took care of my Penni as if she was her own. She sent countless updates throughout the day that reassured me Penni was not only in good hands, but blossoming and gaining confidence with both her and her fur babies’ influence. She gave her snuggles and love and took her for a walk to the park by the beach. I couldn’t have asked for more. Penni went from clinging to my side and fighting to leave me when I dropped her off to hardly showing interest in coming home! We will definitely be using Aleesa over and over.”
About: Hi! I can’t wait to meet your beloved fur babies! I spent the past three years working full time at an animal sanctuary where I cared for horses, dogs, cats, goats, and sheep. My passion is riding horses and hiking with dogs. I've owned & loved 4 of my own horses, 4 dogs, 6 cats and several smaller animals in my life. I am an avid hiker and love being outside on my next adventure - hopefully with your pooch next! It's a true pleasure to enjoy the company of your beloved dog, horse, cat or other beloved family member. I'm a lucky mommy of two daughters ages 11 & 9 years who love animals as much as I do. They often join me in the animal care. I can't wait to help spoil your babies! My schedule is currently fairly open and flexible. I am especially available early in the morning and later in the afternoon/evening. Sat and especially Sunday are usually totally open for me. I would prefer to go to other people's homes to care for there pets however I could take one or possibly two smaller dogs in my own home. I do not have a yard but I go on long walks and have trails all around me.
“I will book with her EVERY single time I need my dog to be watched. Attentive and sends me so many pictures. Trust worthy and the only person I want to watch my dog other then me of course.”
About: I have lived with dogs of various breeds for 20 plus years. I have cared for elder dogs with medical needs aswell as raised two puppies. I’m flexible and able to care all day for your pet and mine. My space lends itself to freedom of your loved one to roam and feel safe. Double gated property with turf and concrete. Dogs may come and go as they want. Will never have more than 4 dogs on property at once.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Malibu Beach on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of August 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 Malibu Beach 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 6,703 sitters in Malibu Beach, 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.
