“Lilly and Ryan were wonderful! I feel so lucky to have found them. They live in my apartment complex, which made everything so convenient, and they took great care of my little Millie. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. I’m so grateful for their help and will definitely be booking with them again. Thank you both! ❤️❤️❤️”
“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.”
“Myla has been an absolute godsend! My new golden retriever baby has been attending daycare with her and honestly I wish I could join them it looks like so much fun! I am updated throughout the day with cute videos and pictures of their adventures and it’s great to see all his new friends! Myla works with him on his training (so nice to have this reinforced when I’m not there) and takes the time to meet any potential clients first to make sure everyone is a good fit for the pack. She even helped me out with a short notice boarding stay, all around 10/10! Glad we found Willy’s Clubhouse!”

“Annie was so great!! My dog got stung by a bee on their walk and she was able to remove the stinger and wash his paw. Fortunately there wasn't a bad reaction and she kept an eye on it the whole time. I really appreciated the constant updates. I'm glad he got along with her dog as well. Will definitely ask her to watch him again!! :)”
“I had a great experience with Ryan. He took excellent care of my senior dogs, including one who was healing from an ingrown nail and had some trouble walking. He handled him with such care and patience. I appreciated the photo update while I was away and both drop-off and pick-up were seamless. My dogs came back calm and content. I would definitely recommend Ryan and will be booking again in the future.”
“Kaitlind took amazing care of our doodle! He had so much fun playing with the other puppies and enjoyed several walks throughout his stay. She kept us updated with photos and videos, which we really appreciated. Communication was great — she responded quickly and was even able to accommodate our last-minute booking. Highly recommend Kaitlind!”
“All I can say is wow! So kind, so flexible, really a life saver at the last minute. My puppy clearly had the time of his life when I picked him up. Zero hesitation to leave him with her again.”
“Ross watched our puppy ‘Henry’ this evening while my husband and I had “date night”. Ross is very experienced with dogs and handled our four-month-old golden retriever puppy beautifully. Thanks, Ross!”
“Xun has been an amazing caretaker of our Goldendoodle Dustin. She provides multiple unprompted picture updates throughout the day. I highly recommend Xun to care for your beloved family member, I have used her services on four prior occasions, and I will not hesitate to book her again.”
“We were in town on vacation and Jessica took great care of Macey. She took her for a walk and even sent a video of them taking the walk. Would recommend and will book with Jessica when we are in town and in need again. Thank you Jessica Randy and Macey”
About: I’m a dog lover based in Venice with a small fenced yard, and I WFH during the week - so your pup will get plenty of attention, care, and company throughout the day! I have a Yorkipoo puppy & grew up with two Maltese, while also being the go-to sitter for friends and coworkers for years. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where dogs feel comfortable and cared for :) I work from home during the week. I’m also usually available on weekends for boarding or longer stays! My puppy, Mimi, loves other dogs and will keep your puppy company. She also hangs out in an enclosed playpen and is fine to be seperated if need be. I have a clean, safe, & spacious home with a small fenced yard for safe outdoor time. I stick closely to your dog’s schedule and make sure they feel comfortable and at home.
“I am always nervous about leaving my dog with a new sitter, he’s a Maltese and quite an anxious pup by nature but Amir and Steph were wonderful with him. They kept me updated through the day and sent some cute photos. I came back to a happy, relaxed (ish), sleepy dog who had obviously enjoyed himself - I couldn’t ask for more. If I need more dog sitting I’ll definitely be in asking them.”
The median cost per day for doggy day care in Marina del Rey is $50
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marina del Rey
Christelle is absolutely AMAZING!!! She is everything you would want and more in a dog sitter. Our pup has been experiencing some separation anxiety after a move, and she was so patient and calm with her adjustment into her environment, even updating us on her interactions. Christelle was kindly accepting of our request within minutes of dropping Olive off, and her responses and updates again were very professional and out of the way to make sure we were informed. We had some harder news reach us in our personal lives this night, and showing up to a kind soul with our pup very happy was a really beautiful relief in the night. Thank you Christelle! You did more than just pup sit! If you’re wondering about booking her, rest assured your pup is in the right spot.
Lizzy (and partner Aaron) is a wonder for sitter for our dog, Max. Poor Max apparently had a very tough life before we got him from a rescue group at age 6 years. He's a very sweet and loving dog, but when he's very anxious and frightened, he can be tough to deal with. Lizzy is one of the calmest people I've ever met and she only takes one dog at a time. She is perfect for Max and, though he's anxious and has serious separation anxiety, he seems to be much more comfortable at Lizzy's place that he is anywhere else aside from home. Lizzy and Aaron are highly experienced in caring for dogs (both their own in the past and other people's dogs) and seem to be unflappable. They have a great house with a backyard on a quiet street in West LA. We are so glad we found them!
Angela is a wonderful sitter and took excellent care of Theo! She is very friendly and caring and made Theo feel comfortable in her home. She is also responsive and communicative, providing frequent updates on how Theo was doing throughout the day. Theo had a great time and we are so thankful!
Ada was literally so flexible with our timing and such a great communicator. She responded so fast to my questions and worked with me for a last minute daycare for my dog Otto. She absolutely saved our butts and it looks like Otto had a great time too. Thanks Ada!
Liliana was so proactively communicative throughout the whole day sending photos and updates of how Waldo was doing. She even took him to the beach! She also was flexible patient and understanding when we were running around 5-10 minutes late to pick Waldo up. Would definitely use Liliana again!

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 Marina del Rey 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 7,719 sitters in Marina del Rey, 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.
