Louisa was absolutely wonderful! On our trip up to Ashland, we were hit with wildfires in the neighboring area and the air quality was horrible. Our original arrangements for our dog fell through and I didn't feel comfortable leaving my dog alone in a kennel outdoors for a couple of hours at our air bnb, but thankfully there was Louisa. My dog can be a bit anxious around other dogs she doesn't know. She growled a bit at Louisa's puppy when we arrived for our meet and greet and I was worried that behavior may continue. Louisa was very reassuring and kept us posted on our dogs behavior and well being. She sent photos through out the day and I was so happy to have someone so trusting & responsive take care of our dog while we were out of town. Thank you so much Louisa!

What a great environment for my dog. The backyard is a dog's dream, especially if your pup likes to run. Yolanda was very accommodating when I was delayed and kept me informed of how Beau was doing during his stay. I would highly recommend Yolanda and her Doggy Day Care.

About: Offering a safe home away from home, compassionate care, and peace of mind for pet owners is something that all pet sitters should be offering. I go far beyond this standard providing both care and training. Since I was a child, dogs and cats have gravitated toward me and I've always enjoyed their companionship; you can almost always find me with at least one dogs around. It's never been an unruly mass of teeth and paws though; I've always taken the time to teach my furry friends to walk on leash, to have immediate recall, to be polite in kitchen, and to use their voices kindly. I do the same with every animal that I am given care of, gently coaching them to be civil, furry companions while showering them with love. I am currently working from home and set my own schedule. I have a set daily morning and evening walk which your pup(s) will join. During the day, you pup(s) will have company of two dogs, three cats and plenty of pets from me. On weekends we go on adventure hikes. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company during the day. I have crates, leashes, grooming tools and home made dog beds for all pet care needs.

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I run a 501(c)(3) dog rescue, regularly transport dogs, care for puppies, seniors, and special-needs dogs, administer medications, work on basic training, leash manners, and provide structured, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. Pet care fits seamlessly into my schedule because animals are already a central part of my daily life. I work from home and plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, medications, enrichment, and individualized care. This flexibility allows me to be reliable, responsive, and fully present for each pet. I have 2 600+ feet plus areas for dogs to run and play. We have a building for them to sleep cozy, clean and safe.

About: I love dogs, I love cats, and truly all animals. I treat every pet as family, offering dependable care, kindness, and attention to their unique needs. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make them feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible, so I can easily adapt to your pet’s needs. Mornings start with feeding, walks (if needed), and playtime. Throughout the day, I provide potty breaks, short walks, and attention. Evenings include dinner, exercise, and cuddles before a final bathroom break. Since I’m home often, your pet will get frequent companionship, and I can stick to their usual routine—whether that’s medication, training, or extra play. Weekends allow for longer adventures like park visits or extended play sessions. In My Home: I provide a pet-friendly space with scheduled feedings, walks, playtime, and cozy rest areas. Your pet gets constant attention, safe socialization (if approved), and a structured routine. I have 10+ acres of space to allow your pets to be free to have fun. In Client’s Home: I follow your pet’s normal schedule (meals, walks, meds) and keep their environment familiar. Includes updates, litter/yard cleanup, and extra cuddles to reduce stress while you’re away.

Katya provided a safe, comfortable, happy play stay for our 20-month-old golden retriever. Mattie loved playing with Dewi and Mishka! Katya's calm demeanor put our girl at ease right away. You can tell that she is a dog lover who understands how to take charge while still having fun. Definitely will use her services in the future!

About: I grew up around dogs of all sizes and breeds, and have always, always loved dogs! I volunteered at the SPCA for 2 years: walking and caring for dogs in the adoption centers. I work at home, so I have ultimate flexibility during work weeks and weekends. I am happy to take dogs on as many walks/runs/breaks as needed. I am in good shape, and I can handle larger and more energetic breeds. My neighborhood is dog-friendly with plenty of streets and dirt trails to the lake to walk or run on. Dogs are of course allowed inside and can hang out with me all day. I have experience working with dogs with medical conditions and disabilities. Our house is currently dog-free so I have extra time to give your dog(s) extra love.

About: Hi, we are Molly, Massimo and Zali. We've had dogs in our families and had taken care of pets of all kinds since we were kids. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on us to walk, feed and care for their pets of all shapes & sizes. We use positive reinforcement for training and pride ourselves on having trained Zali & other dogs basic commands, to walk both on & off leash, plus some fun party tricks. Our favorite “trick” is to ring a bell to go outside. On rainy days, we play hide & seek games with toys & treats around the house to make sure we’re all still getting plenty of stimulation. We’re still unsure who’s more entertained, us or the dogs, when they’re are searching for their reward ;) We are enthusiastic hosts & look forward to meeting you & your pup! We work from home and begin each day with a good romp in our big back yard and a long neighborhood walk. Our yard has plenty of shade and running water. Doggos and humans alike love it here 💓🐶 We live on a 2 acre fully fenced lot and have a sweet, 5 year old female boxer mix that will keep your dog company. She happily shares her toys; playing with other doggo friends & sunny naps are some of her favorite pastimes. While she is a large and playful dog, she is able to match any dogs level of excitement and play.

About: I have owned and cared for pets my entire life. I'm recently retired from a long career as a professional equestrian and horse trainer, and I'm excited to begin this journey of offering pet care services to the community! I have experience with all types and ages of pets ... from very young to very senior. I have experience administering medications, giving injections, and basic first aid. My lifestyle is active, and I'm happy to provide whatever exercise that your pet needs, whether that is a long trail hike, or simply walks around the neighborhood. And lots of love and snuggles of course :) I also have extensive horse experience, and limited experience with other livestock, and I'm happy to provide services for those animals as well. I currently work from home and have an extremely flexible schedule, which allows me to work around whatever your pet care needs are. I have a reliable 4 wheel drive vehicle, so I can get to some of the further out Nevada County destinations no problem. I pride myself on being punctual, organized and reliable, and you can rest assured that your pet(s) and home will receive attentive and loving care. I am happy to take care of any additional tasks that you might need around your home while you're away (checking mail, taking out trash, watering plants/garden, etc. )

Leslie was my kind of people, AND my doggos' kind of people! She was patient with my anxious guy Walter and delighted in the antics of our puppy Dolly. She was lovely about my concerns and allowed me to sit with the dogs to ease into the stay and socializing with her dog Daisy, who was gracious about the energy my dogs have! We will definitely be back! Thank you, Leslie!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Nevada City

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Nevada City on Rover is $32.1 per day (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of June 2026, there are 187 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Nevada City. 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 Nevada City 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 187 sitters in Nevada City, 84% 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.
