“Celeste and Joaquin were amazing! I had them take care of my staffy for 3 consecutive days and it almost got to the point that my dog didn't want to leave them lol they took really good care of her. They kept me updated with pictures and videos. Drop offs and pick-ups were easy. Communication was consistent. Their dog was really friendly. I can go on and on about the quality of experience I had. I 100% recommend them if you're looking for a sitter.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who understands that pets are family. I provide a safe, loving, and calm environment where your pet will be treated like one of my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to their routine, I’ll make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and playtime throughout the day. Your pet will rarely be left alone and will receive the care and supervision they deserve. I’m available for boarding, drop-in visits, and dog walks on weekdays starting at 6:00 a.m. and throughout the weekends. I strive to be flexible and accommodating to your pet’s routine whenever possible. I have a secure fenced yard and a friendly French Bulldog to keep your pup company. If your dog prefers quiet time, I’m happy to provide a cozy space or crate them if requested.
“Karyn did a fantastic job taking care of our little one. She continuously updated us with how Lukie was doing throughout the day. She really showed how much she loves dogs! Thanks you so much Karyn and we will definitely be back and use your services!”
“Josh is absolutely AMAZING!!!! I can’t imagine anyone else aside from Josh watching my fur baby. Josh cares for her like she is his own and I know that she is in great hands. Josh updated me with pictures throughout the day which put a smile on my face! Josh is patient, attentive, and very knowledgeable about dog behaviors. Josh played with her and walked her at the park which was great stimulation. She is now resting from her SUPER FUN day. Can’t wait for my Mia’s next day visit with Josh!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who works from home full time and has over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and all kinds of pets. From basic puppy training and long walks to senior care and medication management, I’ve done it all and loved every minute of it! Whether your pet needs a high-energy walk, a calm companion, or just someone to love them like you do, I’m here to help. I’ve worked with all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I pride myself on treating every animal like they’re part of my own family. I’m dependable, communicative, and passionate about providing the kind of care that puts both pets and their humans at ease. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I work from home full time! This allows me to be with your pet around the clock. I’m also able to take my work with me if drop in visits are needed. My schedule, especially in the afternoons is flexible which allows time for long walks. I have a very sweet and friendly Boston terrier of my own who is always looking to make new best friends! I do live in an apartment, but I am on the first floor with a patio. My complex also has a dog park and is very pet friendly. My daily routine already includes multiple walks spread throughout my work day for my pup and even a trip or two to the dog park. In the evenings we do take a short drive to a local park and walk a few miles when the weather cools off. My dog is crate trained for night time so she can be separated from your pet if needed. My home is your pets home, whatever the need is, I can do my best to accommodate to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible.
“Our ruby loves going to doggy day care with Tiffany! She’s so excited to go over and hang out with her and her wonderful doggy! Tiffany takes such great care of our ruby with amazing walks and playtime! She sends pictures all day which I love !”
“Anthony was absolutely great with Bella. He kept me well informed and her well exercised. If I had to ding him for anything is… that my dog might like him more than me. So -0.5 star for jealousy! But all-in-all he was amazing and even provided some helpful training tips to help with certain pup behaviors. I’ll definitely utilize his services again when I’m in town.”
“We had a great experience with Mark on our first day care . Our concert ran a little late with traffic from the Hollywood Bowl. Arrived at his home to pickup or dog at 12:15 am . Mark was very gracious and understanding.”
“Xiaomeng was absolutely wonderful. She was understanding with my work situation and Spoofy had a great time with her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a genuine cozy experience for their dog.”
About: We love creatures of all kinds! Dogs, cats, reptiles and more. I work from home full time and just had to put my sweet Arya to rest. My family loves to care for animals and enjoys them in the home. Lots of TLC, big fenced in yard and lots of snuggles. Kids are 16, 10 and 10. I work from home full time as a client support consultant. I also homeschool my three children (ages 16, 10 and 10). I am home all day! There are some sport activities that require a drop off around 3pm, but home most of the day with availability to feed, walk and care for your pets. I would be with your pet most of the day. Doors are secured with a fenced in yard with lots of grass and shade. Food is tucked away and children in the home are older and very familiar with caring for pets and keeping them safe.
“Listened and followed my instructions to a T. She kept a close eye on my dog the entire time which was very much appreciate appreciated. And my dog seemed to like her because she was more than happy to go back to her house. I’m very satisfied with Monica‘s care of my Bailey. ❤️”
“Jenni took great care of Rocky! He had so much fun playing with her dog and hanging out with her. I enjoyed the neighborhood she lives in as it’s very calm. I would like more pictures, but next time I will ask for them. Already have our next visit booked!”
“Hasbi has been going to Rachel & Kevin for doggy day care a couple of times now and he’s always excited to join them! They always keep me updated and send me pics of Hasbi & Pika hanging out. Couldn’t recommend them enough! ☺️”
“2nd time with Melissa's doggie day care services, and we couldn't be happier with how she cared for our dog Bella. Our pup was treated like family, and she came home pooped (2 walks), happy and well adjusted. If you are looking for doggie day care services you cannot go wrong using Melissa D.!”
“Ly took care of our dog last minute when we needed to head to Anaheim. Ly kept him active with walks and cared for him as we would. Will definitely book again if we’re in the area. Thank you!”
“Natalia was amazing and made us feel super at ease leaving our two doodles Bhodi and Gizmo while we went and showed our visiting family around LA on two different days. She and her sons were so friendly and loving to our boys and she provided updates, pics and even videos. She followed our feeding instructions great and took them for a walk both days together. Gizmo is fear reactive of other dogs and she handled any dog encounters amazingly. They were also happy to receive some carrots and apples as treats! Will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Loki stayed with Claudia twice during my trip to California. She took good care of him, kept me updated and free of worries. Definitely recommend her, and if I come back, she will definitely be on my call list.”
“Maggie was absolutely wonderful! Spoofy had a great time with her and her family. He was always so excited to see her and she went above and beyond to treat him with love and respect. I know that Spoofy is in good hands when he’s with Maggie!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Placentia
I came to California to visit and needed a place for my doggie! I called so many doggy daycares but they were all booked, someone recommended me to use Rover and I decided to take a look and I found the first three people but the other two couldn’t take care of my dog so I decided to leave her with Romina! It was the best decision I’ve ever taken because she took care of my doggy very well, she walked my dog took her in her home and played with her, she let her sun bathe and gave me hourly updated on my doggy! My dog absolutely loved her and her partner ! If I ever come back to California I’ll definitely bring her back to Romina! And I’ll forever appreciate it! 🫶🏼
Susi was extremely accommodating for me! Kept me updated with regular photo updates per my request, which I know can be a lot but it definitely eased my mind that my girl was in good hands! Susi was also a great communicator and overall was a really great sitter! Thank you!
I can only say that I was truly amazed. I’ve used dog boarding services on other platforms before, but this was my first time using Rover and choosing a home boarding family. I never expected that my dog would be so reluctant to leave. He didn’t want to go out, and even after going outside, he kept turning back, clearly wanting to return to the house. This makes me absolutely certain that my dog received so much love, care, and companionship during his stay. I believe it may be because the whole family was at home, and the presence of two children also gave him extra company and happiness. In short, I am extremely happy and satisfied. I will definitely recommend this to my friends. Thank you so much!
Jacqueline was so kind for taking my fur baby Arlo last minute. She followed all the instructions that were provided and also kept me updated throughout the day. I received pictures of Arlo every few hours with updates of his eating or what he was doing. Would definitely book with Jacqueline again when we’re back in town. Thank you for everything!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Placentia on Rover is $48.84 per day (as of September 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 Placentia 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 7,232 sitters in Placentia, 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.
