About: We loved our furry friends our entire life. Here on the ranch, we have many animals: mini horse, tortoises, chickens, cats, and dogs. So many sights and sounds...there is always something fun going on! And there is always someone here on the ranch to care for the animals. On the ranch your dog will experience: a fully fenced yard, almost 2 acres to exercise, exposure to various ranch animals to help your dog grow socially and emotionally, and a pool to cool off in.
“Lauren and Millie are absolutely the best! Knows how to care for our pup especially during stressful events (ie thunderstorms). We can't thank her enough for the extra love and attention she gives to our girl. 🥰”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life, and they truly hold a special place in my heart. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their beloved pups for years because they know every dog who stays with us is treated like part of our family. I took a break from pet sitting for a while, but I'm happy to share that I'm now open again and excited to welcome new furry friends into our home! My husband and I both work from home, so your pup will enjoy plenty of love, attention, companionship, and playtime throughout the day—they'll never be left alone. While I'm new to Rover, I'm certainly not new to providing safe, dependable, and loving care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Our home features a fully fenced yard and a secure dog run where your pup can safely explore, play, and burn off energy. We have plenty of activities to keep tails wagging, and for dogs who enjoy socializing, there are friendly playmates to spend time with as well. I know how important it is to feel connected while you're away, so I'm happy to send photos and updates, giving you peace of mind and letting you see how much fun your pup is having. We also have one gentle, mellow cat who gets along wonderfully with dogs, but if your furry family member would be more comfortable without feline company, she can easily stay in her own area. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving, and happy home away from home where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and truly loved. I can't wait to meet you and your four-legged family member! I am home all day with your fur baby. So I am available to care and be with our baby all day. They will be loved and spoiled! Your baby will get to play all day, have breaks, eat on your schedule. Please provide their food and any snacks you wish them to have.
“Reagan had an amazing day! Love getting pictures and updates of her bounding smile and adventures throughout the day. Another day of fun and excitement and friends for Reagan at Christie and Daniel’s. We are so thankful. Can’t wait for next time.”
“Felt very safe leaving Zarina with her. She was very communicative and patient with me. As an out of towner my guesses of how long everything would take was a bit off. lol traffic! I will use her again!”
“PJ says he always like staying with Kallie at her 🏡 He loves the backyard with the soft grass, and the creatures abound like lizards 🦎 and Bunny 🐰. Plus the cool indoors where he can just hang loose, chill and snooze 😴 if he wants.”
“Leslie was welcoming and Mesa felt at home right away. She was sad to leave. Callie was great with her. Leslie is a great communicator and I’m thankful she took our booking last minute. I would use Leslie again in a heartbeat!”
About: I am Deaf and rely on ASL to communicate. I am an expert at reading body language both in people & animals. I've grown up with many different animals, mostly dogs. I had my own dog starting at age 8. I've taken care of dogs personally and professionally since then. I'd go dogsit neighbors' dogs at their houses and have family/friends' dogs at my house. I walked dogs for two years before COVID happened. I am a work-at-home mom with three kids (9 years old to an infant) and two pups. I am available on weekdays, weekends, days & nights! We are huge pet lovers here. I have three kids to keep your pets stimulated and busy. I also have a fenced yard and a two-story house. We also live close to a dog park if you've taken your dogs to a dog park and are comfortable with me doing so. I have two dogs to play with your dogs. We enjoy going on walks early in the morning and after dinner, so we will bring your dog along! I work from home, so my schedule is flexible. I will adjust my schedule to fit your pup's routine! Either my partner, Alex, and I or both are always home so the dogs are almost never on their own. I can bring my work with me wherever the dogs are, inside & outside. I have a fenced backyard, baby gates throughout the house, a storm door on the front door, several crates (medium & large), and a quiet & safe room upstairs if your pup needs some space. I have a lot of dog toys all around the house, blankets, treats, outdoor activities, etc to help your pup feel safe and comfortable here. I care for many anxious & nervous dogs, so I am well aware of their body language and know exactly what it is they need. If you ask my previous clients, they'd tell you that their anxious dogs warm up to me pretty quickly!

“Very positive experience for us and the pups. Great environment for both physical and mental stimulation for the pups. Lara clearly a knowledgeable and caring dog and animal lover. Lara kept us in the loop with pictures and commentary throughout the day. You can’t go wrong with Lara and family watching over your pups.”
“Stacie is the first sitter I have found that makes me feel 100% comfortable leaving my sweet boy with and Dante LOVES going over to play with pups. Thank you so so much. I feel like I’m leaving him with family each time.”
“I initially felt very guilty for leaving Blue with Liz . Felt like I was a bad mom until Blue woke me up every morning with excitement and running to the garage. He LOVES being there and I know Liz and her family loves him too. I cannot recommend Liz enough! But maybe I shouldn't coz she might be over booked! Lol!”

“Yaneli did a marvelous job keeping our Athena active & happy. Athena enjoyed playing with Yaneli’s dog & being out for an extensive hike. Yaneli really went above & beyond in making sure Athena was exercised & entertained!!!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all kinds since I was 9 years old. My specialty is fragile seniors with special needs, meds, diets and gentle care. My three girls are not dogs but sweet babies who give us unconditional love and are treasured. We will welcome yours the same way and keep them safe <3 I work out of my home office so this gives me the ability to supervise your pet. They can join mine in my office, we have plenty of comfy spots. I give frequent breaks, time for treats, cuddles and can take them on short walks to our little park (if desired) I also have a pet stroller. I have a fenced in yard with critter fencing and a gate guard. A large turf area perfect for zoomies! My two friendly little malti-pos and a Chinese Crested will be their play pals. They are low key and gentle.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Picture Rocks on Rover is $22.2 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 Picture Rocks 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 AZ 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 367 sitters in Picture Rocks, 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.
