“What can I say about Analisa besides that she’s amazing!! We take our dog Ash over for doggy day care, he always has the best time and is so loved. Analisa literally saved us by taking in Ash and understands our hectic healthcare worker schedule. He always comes home so tired from a full day of walks, playing and fun!”
“Azucena and her family did a wonderful job taking care of Corey. She sent frequent updates and pictures which gave me peace of mind. She also sent him home with a little care package which was so thoughtful. We will definitely be bringing Corey back. Thank you!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for more than 10 years so I'm very highly skilled and patient with all types of dogs mean or timid. I go to school early in the morning and most of my classes are online so I have many hours of the day where I'm home not doing anything just taking care of my dogs. I keep the dogs in the room with me on my patio or in the garage where they have space to play and every two hours I make sure to take them on many walks and even chill with them outside while they play.
“Ariana was amazing and took such great care of Captain she gave updates and made me feel at ease knowing Captain was in good hands. Thanks for understanding my dog breeds needs and we can’t wait to book again for daycare needs!”
“This is the second time we have used Brenda and we will not hesitate to use her in the future. Harriet is a rescue and she is slow to relax in new and unfamiliar settings. However, after each visit Harriet is quick to recover. We would recommend Brenda to everyone.”
About: For well over a decade, I have been trusted by friends, family, and strangers alike to take care of their beloved dogs. My experiences include senior dogs with mobility concerns and young hyper-active pups. Through strong attention to detail, I have nurtured and supported the well-being of many dogs and other pets alike. My experience taking care of different animals (e.g cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs) has made me a well-rounded pet sitter. I currently teach part-time at a local community college. Most of my workload can be performed at home. This gives me plenty of time to cater to the needs of your precious doggo. In my home, I have a fenced yard and plenty of space. This assures that dogs can be secured with room to stretch out. I, also, have many home security cameras as an added protection measure. My surrounding neighborhood is safe and very walkable which provides the perfect atmosphere for long walks.
“A great day with Frank! We were so glad to use Frank again for our Stella. The moment she saw him at the door, her tail went wild with the wiggles! Thanks for taking such great care of our girl.”
About: Our family has lived with and loved dogs for years. Six years ago, we adopted Loki, a 5-month-old puppy from the shelter, and he has been part of the family ever since. Caring for him every day has taught us what pets truly need: patience, routine, and a lot of love. Loki is walked four to five times a day, so we understand how much dogs look forward to their time outside and how hard it is for them to be home alone, especially puppies. I care for pets together with my parents, so there is always someone at home to give your pet attention. We know how to comfort a nervous pet and make them feel safe in a new place. Whether you need a walk, a feeding visit at your home, or a warm place for your pet to stay while you're away, we will treat them like family. My parents are retired and home most of the day, and I help with care as well, so your pet will never be left alone for long. We offer daily walks, feeding visits at your home, and boarding at our home, including overnight and longer stays. Because Loki already goes out several times a day, adding your dog to our routine is easy and natural. Just let us know what works for you, and we'll do our best to make it happen. Our home is quiet, calm, and full of love. We have a small yard where pets can play and stretch their legs safely, and someone is always home to supervise. Loki is a friendly, gentle companion who is used to having people around, and we'd be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so you and your pet can see how we all get along. Your pet will get plenty of attention, regular walks, fresh water, and meals on your schedule. We'll send you photos and updates so you never have to worry while you are away. Your pet's safety and happiness are our top priority, and we'd be honored to care for them like our own.
“I am so grateful for Renae. She watches my dog twice a week and it gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in such good, caring hands. She takes him on hikes, plays with him, and genuinely cares about his well-being. He always looks so happy and sleeps so good after a day with her. It’s such a relief to know he is being loved when I’m not able to be with him.”
About: Hi! I’m a fun, caring, and experienced dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs of all personalities, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just hanging out and getting some extra attention, I’m happy to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m experienced with dogs and understand that every pup is different. Some are full of endless energy, while others are happiest taking it easy and getting plenty of cuddles. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on giving your dog the care and attention they deserve. I diligently walk my dogs every morning before work and I open up my availability in the evening to walk/dog-sit other dogs every single day! I like to make sure that my dog’s food pantry is fully stocked at all times and take the time to brush and groom them at least once a week. Their daily walks are crucial because they are super active huskies, and it also puts me in good shape to keep up with them. I also make sure that my client’s pets are comfortable and I provide lots of snacks and warm blankets for them to relax in my home.
About: I had male husky growing up, fostered a female pit bull and rescued a 2 year old toy poodle. They have brought me so much joy through hikes, beach trips, and play dates with friends. I am excited to learn more about every pets unique personality especially through walking and playing time. Your pets will be in a safe and tidy environment with me. It would be extremely helpful to me if you can provide me with any information about your pet to allow them the most exciting and fun experience when they are with me. Hope to meet your furry friends very soon. I currently work hybrid and only go in person a few times a week. My days are flexible for house sitting, lots of long walks, potty breaks. I frequently accompany my neighbors and friends pets whenever they needed. Owners will leave me instructions for feeding, exercise and play time. For my poodle, we normally go on 3 walks a day, but now with the heat wave, she’s limited to two walks, early morning and evening. During the day, she’s kept busy with puzzle games and mental stimulation!
About: I have been in the pet care industry for four years now and I love absolutely everything about it. I am well experienced in handling all dogs big or small, shy or hyper!! I am also experienced with handling medication if needed! I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to take care of your furry best friends. I am available all week and will accommodate according to your schedule! I have two fur babies to keep your fur baby company if needed! Also have some experience in dog training as well if needed. I take multiple walks a day and if needed I have a crate available for your baby.
“Alexandra is great, lots of communication with pictures and photos. She's been taking care of my puppy while I'm at work, and my puppy is still learning and socializing so she's a handful. The pup is clearly getting the same kind of company and love all day that she'd get at home from us and I'm very grateful for that.”
“Dennis was great with our girl Shelby. Very helpful with questions before hand and sent many pics and videos during the visit. We didn’t have to worry about Shelby at all. Thank you Dennis.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since day one! I grew up with all kinds of pups—from tiny Yorkies to gentle Great Danes—so I’m comfortable with all sizes and personalities. Right now, I care for an 8-year-old Labrador and a playful 3-year-old Cocker Spaniel, both on a fresh food diet inspired by The Forever Dog Life. As a certified pet nutrition specialist, I love helping dogs live their healthiest, happiest lives. We enjoy weekly dog park visits, cuddles, and tons of tail-wagging fun! Pet care is a big part of my weekly routine! I only work two days a week, which means I have plenty of time to give your pup lots of love, attention, and play. Whether it’s weekday walks, weekend cuddles, or regular park visits, I’m flexible and fully dedicated to keeping your dog happy and safe while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! I live in a quiet, gated community with a cozy backyard for fresh air and potty breaks. I also have a 7-seat car perfect for safe, comfortable trips to the nearby dog park—less than 10 minutes away! My dogs go on daily walks and enjoy at least one dog park adventure each week. Whether your pup is staying with me or I’m visiting your home, I always create a loving, calm, and secure environment.
About: I had a dog at home as a kid. Later on when I had my own family we owned a dog for 12 years. Now Willy the Alaskan Husky and myself are best buddies. We take daily long walks and play in the park. I am a retired person. I stayed home most of the time gardening, reading and walking my dogs. I have a 3 bedroom house and a back yard with a lawn and a rose garden We live in a private 3 bedrooms home. We have a nice size back yard with a lawn where the pets roam around. The back yard is fully fenced mostly 6’ high and a portion which is 5’ high.
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for over 15 years. I've raised and cared for my 11-year-old toy poodle and his two brothers, who are now 14 and 15. I see pets as family and know how important it is to leave them with someone who will treat them with the same love and attention you would. I'm especially comfortable with senior dogs and understand they may need a little extra patience and gentleness. Dogs are some of my best friends, and I'll care for your pup as if they were my own. I work full time from home, so dogs in my care get company all day instead of hours alone in a crate or empty house. Doggy Day Care: Weekdays, 7:30am–5:30pm Drop your pup off in the morning and pick them up after work. Throughout the day they'll get playtime, walks, and trips to the dog parks at my apartment complex. I'll send photos and updates so you can see how they're doing. Weekends: Available by request, depending on my schedule. Just message me! Drop-In Visits: I'm happy to stop by for check-ins, potty breaks, feeding, or a quick walk during the day. House Sitting & Boarding: Available by request. Message me and we can figure out what works best for your pet. I only care for 1–2 client dogs at a time, so your pup gets close, one-on-one attention instead of getting lost in a crowd. For day care, boarding, and house sitting, I take small dogs under 15 lbs who are friendly with other small dogs. My senior toy poodle is sweet and still loves to play and run around, so your pup will have a buddy! I'm happy to set up a meet and greet first so everyone can get comfortable. Your pet's safety comes first. Before each booking, I'll go over your dog's routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special needs, and I'll follow your instructions closely. I always use secure leashes, keep doors closed, and have your vet's info on hand. I'll send photos and updates so you never have to wonder how your pup is doing.
“We’re used William in the past, he has a clean and tidy home, my dogs enjoy going there without hesitation, and we fill confident that he will take care of our pets as if they were his own.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Montclair
Analisa was fantastic from start to finish! She was very responsive to all of my questions and check-ins. She kept me at ease that my puppy was doing well with many photos and videos of his day. He got plenty of play time with other dogs and had a great time. I would most definitely use her again. She was great!
Ciara is the perfect sitter. She kept me updated with photos and videos. She was on time, polite, and overall such a sweet person. You can definitely tell that she’s had years of experience with dogs. I recommend her 100% to anyone that wants their fur babies to be in the best care 💕

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Montclair is $42 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $56 per day.

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 Montclair 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.
As of October 2026, there are 5,988 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of CA. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 .
