“We have used Renz several different times and he’s always been great! Pepper loves he and his partner and their sweeeeet dog, Whiskey. Renz is very easy to coordinate with, follows all my instructions, troubleshoots intelligently, is skilled in obedience training, and seems to really enjoy learning Pepper’s needs. He has access to a variety of dog parks and trails, including agility structures, so I know Pepper is always going to have fun and be stimulated. Highly recommend!”
“The absolute best! Sarah is a miracle worker. 🌟 I cannot recommend Sarah enough! My dog, Hotpot, a Shiba Inu, is definitely not the easiest pup to handle. He has historically struggled with resource guarding and gets highly agitated around food. I was naturally nervous about leaving him, but Sarah managed him with so much patience, care, and expertise. Under her care, Hotpot has made incredible progress: • Better Manners: He is now way more patient, especially around meal times. • Socialization: He actually learned how to play and peacefully coexist with other dogs! Seeing him thrive and grow under her care was the best feeling. If you want a sitter who genuinely cares and knows how to handle complex dog behaviors, Sarah is the one!”
“Alissa was so sweet! She accommodated our last minute booking due to an urgent need and I felt so lucky that we found her! She also took amazing pictures of my dog ?❤️ We'd have definitely gone to Alissa again if we didn't move out of Seattle. Highly recommended!”
About: I started taking care of pets since I was in college. I feed homeless cats and dogs and contact shelters for them. In addition, when sitting dogs and cats, I like talking to these furry friends and I find most of them can understand me! I find most furry babies feel safe and calm when I compliment them in gentle tones and give them warm smiles. Their happiness is my happiness! I work from home so I am available to sit dogs and cats usually full day from Monday to Saturday. Ideally we hope to pick them up before 10 am or after 10:30 am since I usually have meetings at 10 am every weekday. I prefer pets being dropped off at my place and I will make sure they have clean water, fresh food, potty break every 2.5 hours! I will play with them in the yard or in my apartment when they feel playful.
“Stacey was great to work with! She was a great communicator, made pick up and drop off very easy and checked in with me throughout Bogey’s stay. My pupper seemed super comfortable and at easy with her and her dogs as well. Will definitely be working with her again :)”
“Pouneh is wonderful! From the beginning, she responded to my messages right away. We did an initial meet and greet at the local park. Nana immediately took to her and her daughters! I knew Nana would be happy and in good hands. Drop off and pick ups: I need to do an early drop off and it’s been super smooth. It’s easy to park in front and get Nana out safely and since we arranged that I send my ETA, Pouneh was already waiting outside ready to take her. Picking her up was also super easy. I texted ETA and she had everything ready with Nana. Again, parking was easy and available in front. Pouneh is very experienced and patient with dogs. She also has extra supplies like bowls, blankets, towels, leashes, etc., making it easier with less things to lug around. Nana looked so relaxed and happy when I picked her up that first day and each day since. I am happy to recommend Pouneh to anyone for doggie care and I will for sure rebook whenever I need an extra hand. Lastly, props to Rover as well. This is a great service and I don’t know what I’d do without it. I’ve always found great people here with sometimes short notice.”
About: I’m an experienced dog sitter who had just relocated from San Francisco. I regularly watched a dog 3 times a week and can take up to 2 dogs at once. I've helped take care of my parents dog for 8 years since she was a puppy and I take her to the beach, for walks, to play at the dog park, and bathe her regularly. I work until 3pm so I have plenty of time in the afternoon to take pups out for walks. I love meeting new dogs and am used to high energy dogs. I am very comfortable around dogs and want your dog to be happy. I am very clean and want to be considerate of your space.
“Chelsea is wonderful! She hosted my pup Ollie for daycare and sent cute photos of him having a blast along the way. She’s also very responsive, kind, and accommodating. Would highly recommend!”
“Lia shared nice updates and videos of our Julie investigating Lia's spacious backyard or relaxing inside. She was so friendly and accommodating when I needed to make some last minute changes to our original plan. Julie seemed to enjoy her time with Lia and I felt like Lia was happy to have our sweet, senior girl roaming around her place or napping and snoring!”
About: We have a standard poodle Joki - who joined us in 2020 from a breeder. Joki is well trained and behave very well with other animals and people. I’m currently work from home so I am able to take care of pers all day during the day and provide multiple potty breaks as need. We have fenced front and back yard available for dogs to play and break. We can offer a fence if two dogs need to be kept separate.
“We were so nervous about leaving our dog at doggie day care with someone we hadn't met. However, Tillana really took the time to know our dog and took a deep interest in her unique needs and personality! She keep us updated with many pictures, and our dog had the best time! Tillana was very flexible with pick up and drop off too (although if you need an early morning time this seems to be harder). We will definitely be back!”
About: I have a wide range of experience from raising a puppy to handling reactive dogs. I’m good at basic obedience training and trick training. In fact many of my friends will come to me when she need advice on obedience training or dog calming methods. I’m currently working from home so my schedule is pretty flexible for potty breaks, play times, and walks. Depending on how comfortable you are with your dog, I can take your furbaby for long walks or to dog parks. I live in a townhouse with a small fenced yard. I have a 35lbs Australian Shepherd who would love to say hi and play with your dog.
“My puppy loves visiting Dalia! When we pull up, she jumps out of the car and runs to the door with excitement. Dalia always makes sure my puppy gets a good walk and a nap in, and she comes home in a great mood.”

Tillana is clearly very passionate about animals and I love that she really took the time to read my notes and prepare for our pup’s stay, considering their individual personalities. She sent so many cute pictures of them and they were good tired pups when they came home!
We have used Renz several different times and he’s always been great! Pepper loves he and his partner and their sweeeeet dog, Whiskey. Renz is very easy to coordinate with, follows all my instructions, troubleshoots intelligently, is skilled in obedience training, and seems to really enjoy learning Pepper’s needs.

Our dog Buster spent the day with Ben and Allison and had a great time! They were super responsive and accommodating, and it's always nice to know your dog is in good hands with someone that truly enjoys dogsitting. He was a happy camper when we picked him up!

Mara was amazing! We were traveling for a wedding, and our dog who is typically great being left alone was barking in the hotel. We found Mara and asked if she could care for our dog for 6 hours while we were at the wedding. The wedding ending up getting delayed and the transport back was an hour + late, and Mara was understanding, kind, and relaxed. We had a stress free evening, as she sent photos of our dog being fed, walked, going to the bathroom, and resting. She was patient and understanding and kind. We would highly recommend!
This was the first time my little Havanese stayed with someone on Rover and she warmed up nicely to the hospitable environment with Stacey, her adult daughter and the other friendly little dogs. Thank you for making her first visit so safe, fun and easy. I really appreciate the numerous photos and the video I received. It helps so much to feel at ease knowing she is enjoying her visit.
Here’s a polished version you could send or post: I honestly couldn’t have raised Miguel without Olga. She has been a huge part of his life since he was a puppy, and there is no one I trust more to care for him. Knowing he was with someone who genuinely loved him and treated him like family gave me complete peace of mind. As I prepare to leave California, one of the hardest goodbyes will be saying goodbye to Olga. Miguel is going to miss his time with her and all of his pup friends, and I’m going to miss knowing he’s in such caring and capable hands. Finding someone trustworthy to care for your dog is incredibly difficult these days, but Olga is truly one of a kind. She is reliable, compassionate, attentive, and treats every dog as if they were her own. If you’re looking for an amazing dog sitter, I cannot recommend her highly enough. We are so grateful for everything she has done for Miguel and our family. ❤️🐾

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - North Fair Oaks
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in North Fair Oaks on Rover is $55.5 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,470 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across North Fair Oaks. 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 North Fair Oaks 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.

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.
