About: My husband and I love dogs! We have had Miss Sabah for 10 years. We have experience dealing with all sorts of events that might occur and special needs. We love being outside and know dogs do too. We have dog sat our friends, neighbors, and family dogs often and I am available all day and flexible. We know younger dogs or certain breeds might need more exercise which we can provide. While some other dogs might need more leisurely walks or swims and we can cater to that too. We can do special food and medicine for your dog, since we understand quality care for your dogs. Your dog will receive lots of pets and belly rubs if that is what they are into. We will take care of your dog like our own since we love all animals. Cheers!
“My dog had a great time spending the day at Kate's. She's very communicative and sends updates and photos throughout the day which made the whole process easier! Pepper came home happy and we'd book her again!”
“Lucia was amazing with our Westie, Fred. So kind of her to welcome us into her home. Lucia was attentive and extremely flexible. Thank you so much, Lucia! Fred loved spending time at your home. We will definitely be back to see you :)”
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring animal lover with experience taking care of dogs and other pets of all sizes and personalities. I understand how important it is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I have a Miniature Australian Shepherd of my own, so I’m very familiar with energetic, intelligent dogs and the attention and care they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, overnight care, or just keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I work part-time for myself, so I have a flexible schedule and can usually be available as long as I receive notice ahead of time. I genuinely enjoy being active with dogs, whether that means long walks, playing fetch, going to the park, or helping them burn off energy and stay happy. I love spending time with animals and making sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and care while you’re away. When caring for your dog in your home, I will make sure to follow all of your instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I treat every home with respect and ensure everything stays clean, safe, and exactly how you left it. I will provide fresh water, regular feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention so your dog feels relaxed and secure in their familiar environment. My goal is to reduce any stress your pet may feel while you’re away by giving them consistent care, affection, and companionship right in their own home. For longer stays I prefer my dog accompany me. She is 1.5 years old, trained, and extremely friendly.
“Megan and Joshua were amazing dog sitters! They kept me updated regularly with messages and the cutest pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I at work. He was well cared for, and got lots of attention. I really appreciated their communication and care, highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and thoughtful sitters!”
About: Growing up surrounded by dogs has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. From an early age, I learned how to care for them—feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they felt safe and loved. Each dog I’ve had has taught me patience, responsibility, and the joy that comes with building a bond of trust. Because of this lifelong experience, I understand the importance of attention, consistency, and affection when it comes to caring for a dog. I genuinely love spending time with them, whether it’s for a walk, a game of fetch, or simply sitting together and giving them the comfort they need. My background makes me a dependable and loving caregiver, and I would treat your dog as if they were my own. Your dog’s happiness, safety, and well-being would always be my top priority. My partner and I work from home during the week and take about four long walks throughout my day. Both of us being home allows us to give the dogs attention and make sure that they are having fun When pet sitting I use the commands and rules that the dog is familiar with and make sure that the dog is comfortable with me before taking them on a walk.
“Francesca was great! She agreed to meet up prior to the booking to meet Mochi. She had experience with stubborn corgis prior so I felt confident that she would know how to take care of my reactive stubborn special corgi 🩷 she was quick to respond and very sweet to my boy 🩵”

“Left Bailey with Nadia and Nadia kept her busy and entertained and loved the entire day. I will definitely be going back - it seemed like a great environment for my dog and will be a great resource when i need to get her some more stimulation.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Playa del Rey
Ada was literally so flexible with our timing and such a great communicator. She responded so fast to my questions and worked with me for a last minute daycare for my dog Otto. She absolutely saved our butts and it looks like Otto had a great time too. Thanks Ada!
Our dogs loved Maxine! She was so great with them- taking them on multiple walks on the beach and paying special attention to our instructions and routine. She was also available on short notice which we were so thankful for! Multiple updates and pictures throughout the day and always responded quickly. We will definitely use Max again!! 🫶🏻
We can't say enough wonderful things about Chia and Jeremy! They took exceptional care of Kaahya and treated her like one of their own. Throughout the day, they made sure she got plenty of pee and poo breaks, took her on a long walk, and even brought her along on adventures to the beach and a coffee shop. It was clear that they genuinely cared about making her experience fun, enriching, and full of attention. One of the things we appreciated most was the constant communication. Chia sent us lots of photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Seeing Kaahya happy, relaxed, and enjoying herself made all the difference. When we picked her up, she was content, well-exercised, and clearly had been showered with love and care. It's not easy leaving your fur-baby with someone else, but Chia & Jeremy made the entire experience effortless and reassuring. We would trust them with Kaahya again in a heartbeat and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, attentive, reliable pet sitters. Thank you both for going above and beyond—we know Kaahya had an amazing time with you!
Our dog Tyson took an immediate liking to Yunqiao, who wisely suggested that we begin the session by all of us taking a short walk together. When it came time for Yunqiao and Tyson to “peel off,” Tyson gave us a brief backward glance and went willingly with Yunqiao, even though he normally suffers from separation anxiety. During the two days of “doggie daycare,” Yunqiao gave us frequent updates and sent photos and even a video of Tyson, commenting that he was “perfect” and peaceful. This was our first time using Rover.com and also the first time to leave Tyson with a stranger. Yunqiao gave us a helpful orientation to Rover.com. All communications from Yunqiao were clear, precise and cordial; and she was very good about soliciting key information she needed about Tyson to give him the best care. Yunqiao and Rover.com definitely exceeded our expectations. We are very much hoping that we will have the opportunity for Tyson to have more doggie daycare dates with Yunqiao.
Pamela is an exceptional dog sitter. She is caring, conscientious, and truly thinks of everything to make sure your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for. While Johnny stayed with her, she took him on long walks, outings to the park, and gave him plenty of attention and exercise. Her backyard is perfect for dogs, providing a safe and enjoyable space for them to play and explore. Most importantly, Pamela treated Johnny like one of her own, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Pamela to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and loving dog sitter. Johnny came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Playa del Rey on Rover is $37.45 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 Playa del Rey 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 7,873 sitters in Playa del Rey, 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.
