“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! ❤️❤️❤️”
“My dog has separation anxiety and Jackie was so helpful and kept sending me updates with videos and photos. It was my first time using Rover and I’m happy with the service Jackie provided. Her dog played well with my mine. Highly recommend Jackie to dogsit and will use her services again.”
“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.”
“Ryan took great care of my dog, Bex! She came home happy and calm, which is everything to me. Bex currently has a small paw injury and Ryan was very understanding and accommodating. It gave me real peace of mind knowing she was in good hands!”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring animal lover with experience taking care of dogs and other pets of all sizes and personalities. I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a Miniature Australian Shepherd of my own, so I’m very familiar with energetic, intelligent dogs and the attention and care they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, overnight care, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I work part-time for myself, so I have a flexible schedule and can usually be available as long as I receive notice ahead of time. I genuinely enjoy being active with dogs, whether that means long walks, playing fetch, going to the park, or helping them burn off energy and stay happy. I love spending time with animals and making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care while you’re away. When caring for your dog in your home, I will make sure to follow all of your instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I treat every home with respect and ensure everything stays clean, safe, and exactly how you left it. I will provide fresh water, regular feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention so your dog feels relaxed and secure in their familiar environment. My goal is to reduce any stress your pet may feel while you’re away by giving them consistent care, affection, and companionship right in their own home. For longer stays I prefer my dog accompany me. She is 1.5 years old, trained, and extremely friendly.
About: I grew up with dogs and had my own fur baby for 11 years. He was a young rescue we trained and he lived to be a senior with senior pup needs such as supplements, medicine and daily eye drops so I'm very experienced across all age groups! Our pup had severe leash reactivity so I have lots of experience with that too. Lastly, I have also been a cat sitter for friends and family over the past 20 years. I work from home, so your fur baby will rarely be alone! I can provide as many walks as your pup needs throughout the day and frequent potty breaks are no problem either. I live in a spacious ground floor condo with a large, fully fenced in patio for sunbathing if your pup likes to hang outside. I have two kids, aged 6 and 10, who grew up with our dog and love all dogs. There will be no shortage of playtime and snuggles for your pup!
“Megan and Joshua were amazing dog sitters! They kept me updated regularly with messages and the cutest pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I at work. He was well cared for, and got lots of attention. I really appreciated their communication and care, highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and thoughtful sitters!”
“Hope took great care of my dog Kirby today. She gave him plenty of exercise with long walks and made sure he was comfortable and well looked after the entire time. I was running late for pickup and she was flexible and easy to coordinate with, which I really appreciated. Communication was smooth and I felt confident Kirby was in good hands. I would recommend Hope to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive sitter.”

“Once again Nadia was a great help with Bailey. Bailey was excited to see her and walked away from me without looking back - so I knew she would have a good time. Will definitely go back!”
“Aleesa was extremely welcoming and caring with our girl. We dropped her off for the day and got plenty of updates which I really appreciated. We’ll definitely have Aleesa watch Edna next time we need a sitter!”
“Would highly recommend Annie for dog sitting as she has always been super flexible with my schedule and is always responsive. She took my dog on multiple walks throughout the day and was accommodating for all of my pet’s needs”
“Great sitter! Booked last minute and on a holiday and she and her husband were super quick to answer. They even pick phantom up. I would recommend and book again. :)”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marina del Rey
Yadi has taken care of Laika many times while we’ve been away traveling, and we always feel completely at ease knowing Laika is with her. She is caring, responsible, and genuinely loves dogs. Laika is always happy and comfortable with Yadi, which means so much to us. We trust her completely and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and loving to care for their dog!
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Marina del Rey on Rover is $37.45 per day (as of September 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 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 7,792 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.
