“Ashley is a compassionate, calm pet sitter. I scheduled a meet and greet with my dog Piper ahead of day care date. We were greeted warmly and Piper enthusiastically explored her peaceful, pet safe yard. Piper was eager to return for her day of fun, and loved her 3 walks and frisbee play. Thank you, Ashley!”
“Lauren and Kari were the best! They sent me a couple of cute photos of my doodle, Ruby, chilling with the other dogs. I was held up in traffic and arrived a bit later than I had intended, and they didn't mind at all. I will definitely use their services again. (Plus they were lovely ladies.)”
“Sarah and her husband Matt we’re awesome doggy daycare for Libra! They sent pictures and gave me updates throughout the day. They’re very welcoming and I felt my dog was safe and happy while she was there. I would use her again and highly recommend you do too!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 10 years! My family and friends have entrusted me with the care of their pets whether that be a doggy beach day, a doggy pamper day or even just to hang out with their pup! I work from home Monday and Friday and I am able to adjust my own schedule to fit in dog walks, play time, feeding time, or whatever have you! My schedule revolves around my doggo! I have a super friendly dog, Shabba, who loves meeting other dogs and running around with them. I love taking dogs on walks or runs to the beach where they can get a lot of play time in :)
“Our Dog lucked out by getting to hang with Robin and her family for a few hours during the holiday week. Robins dog Zuko is adorable and welcomed Maggie to share her couch - the ultimate compliment . Robin responds to messages quickly and sent great photos during Maggie’s visit. I highly recommend Robin !”
About: Animals have always been a passion of mine. I have over 20 years of professional experience caring for animals across a range of species. My family has almost always had at least one dog, if not more. I also had rabbits, hamsters, and birds as a child. I have a lot of experience with vet tech work and can competently administer most medications. Additionally I have a lot of experience with positive reinforcement training I am generally at home though I do leave at times for errands or volunteer work. During the afternoons I'm often taking my kids to various activities. I have a fenced in yard with dog door access to the house. We have one very friendly wheaten terrier who is 2 years old and loves to play with other dogs
“Lindsey is absolutely wonderful! She watched our little boy while we were at a wedding and she took great care of him! She sent frequent videos and pictures and updates and I wondered if he’d even want to leave haha. She made a potentially stressful day completely worry-free!”
“I was so touched by how Tiffany greeted my gentle dog and me outside her home--so warm and welcoming. She clearly has a natural way with dogs. Tiffany was great with prompt communication after I requested dog sitting. After I dropped Rocky off, she let me know that she would send me photos of Rocky throughout the day, but that she didn't expect/require reply. As promised, she soon sent lots of photos and delightful texts to let me know how Rocky was doing, including playing in the yard with her dogs, and then enjoying a nap. I felt very comfortable leaving Rocky with Tiffany, and I feel grateful to have met her. I definitely will book with her again! Thank you, Tiffany, for being such a loving sitter and for generously and graciously opening your home!”
“Katherine is such a sweet and loving person. She was very nice and caring to Mylo. Mylo warmed up to her easily. Would request her to take care Mylo if ever we come back to Napa. Thank you very much for today.”

“Ciana and her husband were great caring for Fred, our 10 years old Westie! I was a bit nervous leaving Fred for the first time, as he has EPI and requires extra care with the preparation of his meals (he takes pancreatic enzymes). Ciana went above and beyond to keep me at ease and did a fantastic job with Fred. Thank you Ciana! We’ll definitely reach out again next time we’re in Napa!”
“I couldn't have been more pleased with Julie! This was my 1st rover experience and I was a bit nervous. When my anxious pup took to her and her home pretty immediately, I relaxed and was able to enjoy some alone time by the pool on my "solo" birthday vacation. Julie is a gem!”
“Hannah was amazing. Very knowledgeable and professional. Hannah took great care of Terra and even took the time to get to know her first and then introduce her to the rest of her squad. Amazing property, I highly recommend Hannah for your pup’s needs, your dog(s) will be greatly taken care of! (:”
“David took amazing care of Otis! I'm not the easiest owner as I'm always worried about my pup. I've almost always failed to successfully find someone on Rover. David was communicative, helpful, and just clearly understands and knows how to care for dogs. His dog Rosie is really sweet, too. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to leave my dog with David and was totally comfortable the entire time I was away. I will definitely use David anytime I'm in the Napa area for overnight care or just someone to watch Otis for the day.”
“Stephanie kindly agreed to watch our pup when our dog sitter fell through last minute, and maintained good communication, sending updates and pics throughout the day. Much appreciated!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Oakville
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 812 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Oakville. 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 Oakville 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 812 sitters in Oakville, 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.
