“Reginay did an amazing job taking care of my puppy Minji. She was very communicative and provided me updates throughout the day. I will keep booking with her whenever I need to!”
“I found Marcie on Rover and she responded quickly on such short notice. I contacted her on a Friday and she was able to accommodate our pit bull Jada the next day. Marcie was courteous enough to provide photos of Jada while at the dog park. Jada looked like she enjoyed her time with Marcie. We look forward to using Marcie again in the future.”
“Great Doggy Daycare! Annie took wonderful care of my dog, Shiloh, during daycare. She was kind, professional, and kept great communication. Shiloh came home happy and relaxed, which tells me everything I need to know! I highly recommend Annie. Randy & Shiloh 🐾”
“Anna looked after Simba while I attended a concert, she kept me updated with lots of pictures about what Simba was up to - I didnt have to worry about him! She made sure that Simba had a fun time with lots of love and treats! If you're looking for someone that'll make your pooch feel at home and have some fun while you're away - Anna's the one to choose!!”
“I dropped off my 7 lb chihuahua, Molly, for a daycare session with Hana yesterday, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I’ll admit I was really nervous at first, Molly is tiny, and there were two other dogs there, one of whom was super excited to meet a new friend. So much energy can make Molly hesitant, but Hana immediately stepped in with calm, confident leadership. She set clear boundaries to help everyone settle down, which made me feel so much more comfortable. Throughout the day, she sent me several videos showing Molly relaxed and happy, calmly hanging out with the other dogs and going for a nice walk. By the end of the day, Molly was curled up on the couch with Hana, her husband, and her two new friends, a huge sign of trust from my usually cautious little dog! Hana showed wonderful leadership, genuine care, and constant attention throughout the day. I left feeling completely reassured and grateful to have found someone so capable and kind. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Manuel is wonderful!! He took our dog Chunk in for a couple days of doggy daycare and the experience could not have been better. Not only did he have a great setup, he is responsive, sent photo updates, and genuinely cared about my dog being comfortable and happy!”
“Tresa is a lifesaver! Our two dogs love going over there. She is very flexible, a great communicator, and easy to work with. Sooo glad we found her for our deaf puppy and lab.”
About: I approach each dog as individuals to understand their personalities. As a pet parent, I’ve owned five dogs, three of which unfortunately have moved on to the rainbow bridge. I currently have a 5 year old Aussie and a 3 year old border collie mix, both a calm and friendly to dogs, cats, and people. I work a regular job from 8am - 4:30pm M-F, with remote work from W-F. My availability are any remote days and weekends. I can watch your dogs at home during those days or check in on them after work hours and anytime in the weekends. I spoil my dogs and cats. I make sure to play with them daily and take them for walks. Having an Aussie and border collie demands it! Both our dogs know when it’s bed time and sleep in our bedroom. Luna the border collie sleeps in our bed, the best snuggle bug ever.

I have a all around fenced front and backyard, that are connected so your pet, will have a lot of room to roam around in.
“Brandee provided fantastic care for our beagle. She is a good communicator and is super easy going. She sent photos of her daughter snuggling our dog, which sealed the deal. We’ll be back!”
“Irina is a lifesaver! I reached out at the last minute the night before, and she responded immediately, accommodating our needs. I have two small senior dogs, and she was very attentive to them. She sent me videos and photos of them throughout the entire sitting. I felt very relieved knowing my babies were safe and at peace. We will definitely hire Irina again for all our future sitting needs.”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about Deborah. My puppy HATES leaving her house and always comes home and falls right asleep, which is a sign that she has had the time of her life. Deborah is quick to respond, super flexible, takes lots of pictures/videos, and is extremely reliable. She’s become my puppy’s regular sitter. You won’t go wrong with having her watch your fur baby!”
About: Hello! My name is Violet and I’m 19. I’ve taken care of many dogs with varying ages and sizes since I was 15. I’m a volunteer/foster home at Front Street Animal Shelter and have fostered multiple dogs and puppies. This experience has deepened my understanding of animals as well as how to properly care for them. Along with this I assist friends and family pets frequently whenever they need me. I currently own a dog I adopted from the shelter 8 years ago, he is a mixed pup around 20lb and is good with other dogs. Currently I’m open full time for your pet, and I take any size pets. I am searching for more job experience and opportunities. I'm passionate about providing top-notch care for your beloved furry friends. I am currently free most of summer, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets! I’m available for boarding all week, as well as drop in visits. I have a fenced yard with one very friendly dog to keep your pup company. I’ll supervise to ensure the safety of all pets. If provided I’m able to easily crate your dog. I’ll be sure to follow all instructions given, whether at my home or at yours.
“My wife is going to have surgery at UCDAVIS medical center. We did not have a place to take our dog. Bari made the process easy and welcoming. This was a huge relief because it took away the burden of the uncertainty of what to do with our dog. Bari also knew how to handle our dog with the other dogs even though she was fearful. All around we had a tremendous experience with Bari.”
“Hats off to Alayna for for her skill and dedication. She has her own dog and was caring for another (in a crate & very vocal !) And my fur baby has been a work in progress to accept strangers and other dogs. But from all indications, my dog was separated from them, remained calm and simply followed her around. When I later messaged her, she alleviated any concerns with photo/comment. In the end he was in a wonderful state for the ride home!”
“Krystal and Doug provided a clean, home enviromant for our dogs. They treated our 2 dogs like their own. We brought 2 large~medium size dogs for them to watch. Our dogs sniffed around a little and fit right in shortly after they arrived. They walked our dogs and played with them a lot. From the picture they sent us, our dogs looked comfortable and relaxed. They got plenty of walking and play with their family and their pet Olive. I would not hesitate to send my dogs there again.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Parkway-South Sacramento
I have used Manny for daycare on multiple occasions in recent weeks. I am an extremely neurotic pet parent and I always get nervous taking my dog to a new sitter. Manny went above and beyond in talking through my questions at length and asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s needs. My dog has done really well at Manny’s and I will be using his services in the future!
I feel lucky to have found Ong to watch Zoya and Misha. We were in a tough spot after our original sitter canceled on us at the very last minute, but Ong stepped in and saved the day. The communication was great. Ong is very responsive and replies almost instantly. She also pays attention to detail regarding the dogs' needs, while still being incredibly flexible and accommodating to our specific situation and schedule. If you need someone reliable and caring, Ong is a great choice. We're very happy with how everything turned out.
Katherine was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Vigo. She is clearly very experienced and comfortable with all different kinds of dogs, which immediately put us at ease. We felt completely confident leaving Vigo with her for two consecutive days while we visited Sacramento. Katherine has an excellent system for thoughtfully and safely socializing dogs, and it was clear that Vigo felt comfortable with her and engaged right away. Our dog has A LOT of energy and loves to run and play, and he was genuinely happy and very content when we picked him up both days. We couldn’t have been happier with the care Vigo received. I highly recommend Katherine to anyone with dogs of any breed or temperament. We wish she lived closer to us for regular stays but will absolutely go back to her any time we’re in the area.
Patty was amazing and so flexible! We're from out of town and wanted to float the American River and couldn't bring Pretzel with us, so we decided to book Rover for him. She sent us pictures and was very communicative which we really appreciated! We'll definitely be booking with Patty again if we are in town :)

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Parkway-South Sacramento on Rover is $32.1 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 Parkway-South Sacramento 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.

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.
