About: I've never met a dog who does like me. I taught my own dog how to burp on command. I'm a former United States Marine. I own a 10.5 lbs wire hair terrier mix who literally wouldn't hurt a fly l. I work 100% from home as a web developer so I your dog will always have company with me. I have a fenced in courtyard and live in a sleepy neighborhood that is great for walking dogs. I'm stocked with all the treats, toys, and gear needed.
About: USE THIS CODE FOR $20 OFF YOUR FIRST BOOKING https://www.rover.com/sit/sofiaf58007 Over the years, I’ve cared for many different animals from dogs and cats to guinea pigs and fish. I share my home with my senior dog, Cushla, a very sensitive dog I’ve cared for since she was a puppy. Caring for her has given me experience managing allergies, stomach issues, prescription food, medications, and the extra attention sensitive dogs need. I offer a calm, one-dog-at-a-time environment where your pet will receive my full attention and care. Since neighborhood cats occasionally visit the yard, I only accept well-socialized dogs up to 20 lbs who are comfortable around other animals and suited for a calm, low-stress home environment. I work from home full-time, so your dog will have constant supervision, personalized attention, and senior-friendly features like pet stairs, plus plenty of care and companionship. Your dog will stay in a spacious, calm home with plenty of room to relax and feel comfortable. I have a large, fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore, play on the lawn, and enjoy fresh air. I also have plenty of toys and balls to keep them engaged and happy. Inside, all furniture is covered with soft blankets so they can rest comfortably wherever they choose, and I have pet stairs available for dogs who need extra support getting up. Dogs are never kept in crates, and I always use a gentle, respectful approach to care, focused on making them feel safe, relaxed, and at home.
About: I’ve been a pet owner for 25 years. I use to be a zookeeper for 8 years and have worked with exotic animals for over 10. I have basic training skills and am good with large dogs. I am currently working part time and have most days free and evenings as well. Local neighborhood walks or pick ups would be ideal, but not necessary. I currently do not have any other pets. I do have a fenced in back yard and live in a house. Bathroom breaks can happen frequently when boarding.
“So good with Henry, gave him lots of love and walks. He is an anxious dog and he warmed up to her right away and was comfortable and well cared for. She sent me lots of updates throughout the day. Would highly recommend!”
“Very pleasant experience. She was always very kind and polite. She communicated often with photos and updates about my pups. She took them on 3 walks a day. She did a lot more than I expected and I intend to go back to her every time. Glad I found her!”
“Arthur and Hayley were so awesome! We were in a pinch last minute and not only were they able to provide a good environment for the dogs but took such good care of them. We have a puppy who due to vaccines still could not be around other dogs and they were able to accommodate. Also were able to provide updates through out the day about how the dogs were doing. Not only good dog people, but good people in general. If in the area would 100/10 recommend!!”
“Joumana & her daughter were great sitters. We were in town for a few days and needed a last minute sitter and she was our life saver. Response was fast and her and her daughter were the kindest. Would definitely book again!”
“Alexis & Melisa were absolutely wonderful pet sitters for our elderly, blind 17-year-old Shih Tzu. They administered her daily medication and made sure she was fed, all while providing daily updates that put our minds at ease. They treated her like their own, giving her their undivided attention since she was the only pet they were caring for. It is clear they genuinely love animals. We are so grateful for their dedicated and personalized care. We would highly recommend Alexis & Melissa for anyone seeking compassionate and dedicated pet care!”
“Beray did a great job of taking care of my dog Wilbur! She was very communicative and flexible with her time. She also gave several updates throughout the day and Wilbur came home happy and sleepy. Thank you again, Beray!”
“I found Max & Diana when I was looking for a daycare that opened early. I work long hours (12 hr days) and my pup does not do well alone for that long. Theo absolutely loved spending time with them and I always knew he was safe and cared for while he was with Max. I wish Theo could continue going to this daycare but my job location changed. If I’m in the area again, Theo will be going back to visit Max and his friends.”
“She was lovely and very understanding. My dog usually has a hard time playing with other dogs or even going with other people but she had no problem and Mason looked happy.”
About: I’ve always been passionate about animals and have years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From daily walks and feeding to playtime and snuggles, I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m attentive to their individual needs and provide a safe, loving environment to keep them happy and healthy. Whether your pup needs extra exercise, medication, or just lots of love, I’ve got it covered! I’m available seven days a week to provide your pet with the care and attention they deserve.

Carter was absolutely wonderful with Soca. He really checked all the boxes and handled her with such professionalism. She loved him as soon as they met and it’s obvious he loved her too. I am 100% only booking with him from this point forward. Amazing doggy sitting in my opinion.
Pooh Bear had a very emotional day, and Brooke was absolutely wonderful with her. She helped her calm down and feel safe, providing exactly the caring presence Pooh Bear needed. I cannot recommend Brooke highly enough. Thank you, Brooke, for your professionalism and patience.
Thank you Valeria for watching my dog last minute! I really appreciated getting texts, photos, and a video while I was out. He is a bit attached to me so I appreciated the kind gesture of easing my mind. Chato seemed to enjoy himself at your place. Thank you so much for the mini photoshoot as well :)
We were very lucky to have found Brooke! We needed a last minute sitter that could watch our pup for the entire day with a late-night pickup, and she was happy to accommodate us. She was very communicative throughout the stay, and it was such a relief knowing our dog was in good hands with all the pictures & updates that were sent to us. Brooke is an absolute gem - we will definitely be booking with her again!
had a great experience leaving my dog with him for daycare! He was very communicative, friendly, and made me feel comfortable leaving my dog in his care. My dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I really appreciated the updates throughout the day and how attentive he was to my dog’s needs. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Tanya was great with our Lex, she knows dog behavior and can sense any problems which is a bonus because although Lex is a bigger dog he is super playful and also submissive so he wants to play with everyone, but some dogs don't like that and she stops any aggressive behavior b4 there is trouble, which was comforting as there was a dog there for a little bit who wasn't friendly. She kept them separated. After that dog left Lex was a happy and content boy.
Elizabeth came through for us last minute and we are so grateful! Our original sitter canceled the day before and we were scrambling. We were lucky too that she was so great with Rocky - he took to her right away! We appreciated the tips she gave us on allergy meds as well because she saw him itching so much. All in all, Rocky was in the best hands and we would undoubtedly use Elizabeth again!! Thank you!!!
Frank took care of my 3 Dogs today, and it was fun for them, and a lifesaver for me! 😊🐾💙💙💙 I received a video and photo’’s while I was hosting my Granddaughter’s 1st BD party and it made me happy to see them enjoying themselves in a beautiful, large backyard. This was my first experience having all three away from me, and I have to recommend Frank and give him an A+! My boys are exhausted, happy, safe and sleeping soundly now. 👍😊🐾
Chanel was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Julian! From the moment we arrived, she was so warm and inviting, and Julian felt right at home. Her space is lovely and perfectly set up so she could easily go in and out as she pleased, which made me feel so comfortable leaving her there. Julian loved her walk and had the best time spending the afternoon with Buzz — they got along so well! It’s clear Chanel truly cares and creates a calm, happy environment for the dogs in her care. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be bringing Julian back!
Janeece is one of the kindest sitters we’ve ever had. She is very thorough - asks a lot of (good) questions and wants to know everything about our dogs; this makes us feel secure and helps us to trust that our furbabies are in the best care. Our dogs fell in love with Janeece and her comfortable home quickly! She sent us lots of updates with photos and videos which were great. We look forward to booking with her again!
We had an amazing experience with doggie day camp today! From the moment we dropped our puppy off early in the morning to evening pickup, everything went so smoothly. Alexis and Melisa were incredible at sticking to our puppy’s schedule and made us feel completely at ease. We received lots of updates and adorable pictures throughout the day, which we really appreciated. It was clear our puppy was well cared for, happy, and comfortable. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend Alexis and Melisa!
Daniela did an amazing job taking care of our 8 month old puppy, Bowie, on Thanksgiving. She clearly loves dogs and has a lot of experience taking care of them so Bowie was in very good hands. He got to play with the other dogs there, go on a walk and rest - and we are so thankful. We will definitely book Daniela again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Northridge on Rover is $48.84 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 .

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 Northridge 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 6,687 sitters in Northridge, 88% 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.
