About: I’m a dog mom plus 10 years of experience. Petsitting is not just a job_ its a great way to bond with the animals and give them the love and attention they need while their owners are away. Comfort, lots of love care and safety is a priority! The daily schedule would start with feeding time at 7am breakfast. Midday play time in the backyard. Dinner time is 5pm. Fresh water is always available indoor/outdoor. Lots of playtime and I captured videos and pictures and sent to owners daily. Since I have Bruce at the house taking care of daily needs and spending some quality playtime. I have fenced in the backyard with lots of room for dogs to run around and get proper exercise.
“We had a great experience! Ace was so well taken care of, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. We got updates, and it was clear he was happy and comfortable the whole time. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our boy—we truly appreciate it and would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter! 🐾💕”
“Maggie must of had an awesome day! Because she came home and passed out. Thank you so much for the great care provided to her. I can't wait to have her over again. Thank you so much!”
About: I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats at home with my wife and I’ve worked in a boarding facility! I also have taken care of my friends 3 dogs on multiple occasions My day to day schedule involves managing and owning my own Brazilian Jiu Jitsu gym, Payback Jiu Jitsu at 583 W 10th St Pittsburg, which is a short drive from my home to allow me to take car of any animal as long as I need to before working. My wife and I work together on taking care of pets, so if anything you’re getting double the care for the price of one! I like to make sure the pets are always taken care of and just aren’t cooped up in their crate all day. I’ll also play with them if they have high energy or work their mind to help tire them out! My wife is also a rover sitter who is regularly taking care of other fur babies so if your pet requires extra attention we make a good team to make sure your pet is well taken care of!
“Rachelle was so nice an accommodating. She was so kind to accept our last minute booking and Tempi could not have been happier during her stay. We got Video Updates of Tempi and her new furfriends.”
“Shirley was great with our apprehensive dog! He’s a tough one to win over but she really spent time with him and worked hard to get him to trust her. We will be happy to book Shirley again in the future!”
About: Hi, I’m Cristal! Dogs have been a cherished part of my life for over 20 years and caring for them is truly one of my greatest joys. As a devoted dog mom myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved family member in someone else’s care. My goal is to provide a safe and loving home where every dog feels happy and cared for like a vacation for them too. I treat each pup like my own with plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. When your dog stays with us, they’re not just a guest they’re family. ❤️ I’m currently a stay at home mom with a sweet toddler and two friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, which means I’m home most days and able to provide lots of supervision, companionship, and care throughout the day. We have a large fenced yard where pups can safely run, play, and explore. They are welcome to come in and relax inside the house, stretch out on cozy beds, play with toys, and enjoy being part of our family’s daily routine. We also live next to a beautiful walking trail making it easy to give your pup plenty of exercise, fresh air and new smells to enjoy.
About: My wife and I are dog lovers with more than seven years of dog care experience. Our home is very friendly and welcoming, and we offer the best care in a safe, comfort, a neat and clean environment with plenty of playtime. With limited spots available, everyone is treated like a member of our family. Our home has a very nice fenced backyard and is close to several parks for walks. Please let me know your dog regular routine so we can make them feel right at home. We will capture plenty of photos and videos during their stay and share them with you, so that you can see their happy moments anytime.
“Sabrina is the best! If I could recommend anyone it would be her. It was my first time to ever put my fur baby in doggy day care and Sabrina made the process at ease. Thank you so much again and can’t wait for more puppy play dates at Paxton’s Playground 😊”
About: My name is Carlos and caring for animals has always been a central part of my life and home. My wife and I share our household with two dogs, George the puggle and Charlie the pug, along with several rescue and foster cats. Because of this we are very familiar with managing a multi animal household, different temperaments, and routines that help pets feel calm and secure. I have experience caring for animals at many stages of life, from energetic puppies and kittens that need structure and guidance to senior pets that require medication, mobility support, and extra patience. Living in Antioch has also shown me how many animals come from difficult situations, which is why I approach pet care with a calm, structured, and compassionate mindset. I can assist with puppy and kitten development, senior pet care, medication administration, transportation for vet visits or outings, and basic grooming support. My wife and I are comfortable administering medications and maintaining feeding routines including weight management diets. I also regularly help care for rescue and foster animals, which has given me experience working with pets that need extra patience and reassurance. My goal is always to provide safe, attentive care so pet owners can feel confident their animals are in good hands. For the safety and well being of all animals involved, guardian type breeds require a Meet and Greet before any booking is accepted. Additional fees may apply for puppies under one year old and dogs over 60 lbs due to the additional supervision they often require. If your pet has behavioral challenges or comes from a difficult background, I am still happy to offer advice or guidance even if I am unable to accept the booking. I currently work remotely so I have plenty of availability throughout most days of the week and on weekends to look after any pet that requires care. We provide cage-less boarding where they would have their own space. We will never force them to mingle with our own pets but will encourage the socialism and play time with us.
“Nakul was the best thing that happened to my pups. I have many dogs and thus have worked with many sitters. But Nakul was the best sitter I have ever worked with. I needed to board my 18 dogs at the last moment because of some issues with my property. Nakul not only agreed at the 11th hour, but also took care of them like his own. All of my 18 dogs had a room for themselves and they had a big yard to run around. He took a great picture of my dogs all in one frame which I have never been able to. He is truly a dog whisperer. Nakul has earned a client for life. 100% recommended.”
“Very attentive. Very positive experience. The enthusiasm Liam gave in meeting our dogs, the updates and the attention they received way surpassed our expectations. Lovely grounds for the dogs to play in. We felt very safe with our two dogs in their care. So happy and plan to use them again as a local resource when we need a date night etc. Thanks sooo much!”
“Julia knows dogs. She is able to integrate a new dog in with her current group. She is the consummate "dog whisperer." They seem to listen and respond to what she says. My dog, Brie, loves going to Julia's. She is exhausted when she comes home and has a good workout with playtime. I highly recommend bringing your dog here. I trust Julia and am grateful that she is attentive to my pup.”
About: Animals have always been a major part of my life, and I am passionate about providing safe, loving, and reliable care for every pet I meet. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats through personal ownership, volunteer work, and animal care education. I volunteered with Antioch Animal Services, where I gained experience with kennel cleaning, dog walking, cat handling, and maintaining a clean and safe environment for animals. I have also completed certifications in Animal CPR & First Aid and Animal Care Assistant through Alison Academy, and I am currently continuing my education in animal care and dog grooming. As someone pursuing a future career working with animals, I understand the importance of patience, observation, and following instructions carefully. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, companionship, feeding, medication reminders, or extra attention while you're away, I will treat them with the same care and respect that I give my own pets. I also provide regular photo updates so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and make time for every week. I am available on weekends for dog walking, drop-in visits, and daycare. I understand that pets thrive on routine, so I do my best to keep their schedule consistent while providing plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure owners receive regular updates and photos while they're away! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner's instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household rules. I pay close attention to each pet's behavior and needs to make sure they feel comfortable and secure. I also understand that every animal is different, some pets love to play while others prefer a calm environment, and I adjust my care accordingly. You can expect clear communication, reliability, and plenty of updates while your pet is in my care!
“PAULO IS AMAZING!!! I opted in for the doggy day care and he took care of my girl through and through! She was so satisfied from her mood and energy level, and paulo kept me updated throughout the day too! He's really amazing and he's the nicest guy you'll ever meet! Thank you again!”
“Stacy was a wonderful host and dog sitter! Her friendly and mild manner quickly put shado at ease and she was very comfortable staying in her home. The backyard made potty breaks much easier and also room for extra play. Stacy was communicative and shared updates with pics throughout the stay. I knew Shado was in very caring hands. Highly recommend!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Nortonville on Rover is $42.18 per day (as of July 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 Nortonville 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 3,568 sitters in Nortonville, 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.
