“I was looking for a daycare option for my corgi to get used to bigger dogs again after a bad experience with a loose dog. Brasilio gladly did a meet and greet with us and brought his Husky to meet Tucker. He was very laid back with Tucker and very comfortable giving him a chance to get acclimated to his dog. Tucker responded very well so I felt like he’d be in good hands w/ Brasilio. He was also very accommodating when he needed to stay overnight when I had a schedule change and wanted to just pick him up the next day. Tucker has been doing MUCH better with new dog friends thanks to Brasilio!”
“We were visiting LA and required a last minute sitter due to the hot weather. Edwin and his family were quick to respond and accepted Java last minute! Edwin and his family were so great! We got the updates that we wanted throughout the day and Java looked like she was having fun. Java was spoiled during her stay and even received some homemade dinner. We would definitely recommend you leave your pet with them and we would if we are back in the area.”
About: I’ve had several dogs throughout my life and will probably be getting another one or two within the next year. My main option on here is dog boarding but, depending on the dog boarding schedule, I or somebody else on my team could also be open to do drop ins, house sitting, or walks, especially for those who have already used our boarding services. Please ask about these additional services after a confirmed boarding session. I’m in the middle of taking a few years off from teaching high school because A) Who couldn’t use a break from that? and B) I am focusing on building up a short-term rental business (Airbnb mostly). As an Airbnb host I spend a lot of time at home and have found that one of my favorite things to do is play with dogs in the yard (especially, when there’s more than one of them here at the same time!) and take them on trips to the park. I love dogs and am very reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I live in a house with a fenced yard and all of the instructions you leave will be followed to keep your little buddy happy & safe! I am home most of the day and when I do leave it's usually only for an hour or two at a time. Most of what I do at home (working on a computer, household chores, yard work) I do in the presence of whatever dogs happen to be staying at that time. One limitation that I do try to stick to is to avoid scheduling drop-offs or pickups on Sundays before 10:00 am. Unfortunately, Rover doesn't give me the option to block off those times without blocking out the entire day so adding this note here is the only way to give you a heads up (hopefully, you read this before booking). I have a fenced yard and usually board 2 or 3 dogs at a time so that they have playmates. If ever I leave the house, dogs are left inside. Dogs that stay here must be up to date on shots as well as on a flea-prevention medication.
“Natalie is wonderful! From the moment I messaged her a booking request, I could tell she would be a great choice. She reached out to ask some thorough questions so she would know how to best care for my little pup. Upon arrival, she was already waiting outside, so it was easy to find her. She provided clear pictures and updates throughout the day, and I appreciate that she made sure my little guy ate (sometimes he’s not fed with other sitters, since he just wants to play). Upon pick-up, she was already waiting with him and all his items, and afterwards, she provided a very clear report. I will definitely be using her again!”
“My pup is always happy and tired when she comes home from Lillybeth’s home! I am always comfortable knowing that my girl is being taken care of and loved. Will continue to trust Lillybeth with my dog!”
“Laura is a very sweet and experienced pet caretaker. She followed all the instructions I gave and sent frequent updates and pictures. I could tell the dogs were comfortable and happy with Laura and Brian :) Thank you!!”
“Katherine and Earl are our go-to people for our energetic dog Nixon!! I get sent out of town for work last minute and they almost always save the day. Our dog loves it there and the updates are hilarious and adorable. Would recommend them to anyone!!”
“Greatly appreciate Brenda, she cares for my Coco on the weekends. She works with my hours which is great since my job is a bit hectic during these days. Coco loves being with her and that is something I’m very grateful for. Will continue bringing her 🙂”
“Amazing sitter!! Shaun and her family are super sweet and everytime I’ve left Roux with them they treat him as their own! They send updates, pictures and videos throughout the day which I truly enjoy! We’ve used them twice already and will continue to use their services!!”

“Maria and her daughter as so incredibly sweet, kind and supportive. It was my first visit & they made me feel very comfortable and gave me updates. Communication was great!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs, including my own as well as the pets of family and friends. During this time, I’ve helped with feeding, playtime, and daily walks, while ensuring that each pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and always make it a priority to give them the attention, patience, love, care, and treats they deserve. I’m currently working from home and off on weekends which allows me to give pets plenty of time and attention. I’m also able to walk them throughout the day for regular walks and playtime. My home provides a safe and welcoming envoronment for pets. I have a gated front yard and spacious backyard with plenty of room to run around, play, and explore safely. I also have a senior dog who is very easygoing and enjoys the company of other dogs. Lastly, I’m more than happy to accommodate each dogs needs and routines.
About: Thank you for considering me to care for your pet!:) I help with walks, feedings, and medication, and playtime of course. I’m really patient with all kinds of pets, from puppies to older dogs. I make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re with me. I’m currently in online school, so I have plenty of free time to spend with your pets! I’m available for you anytime of the week! I always pay attention to what each pet needs, whether that’s extra playtime, cuddles, or a little space. I want to always make sure they’re safe and comfortable.
“So far so good. Wrinkles was anxious when I brought her over to Karn but when I checked in two hours later Karn said that she calmed down eventually and was able to stay tge whole afternoon. Thank you Karn!”
“Bernadette took great care of Wensley. He seemed really content when I picked him up, and I appreciated her flexibility as far as drop off time. She's a great communicator and kept me posted with pictures. I will definitely be using Bernadette again for Wensley's future doggy daycare needs. Also, he loved the extra little doggy treats Bernadette had made. Such a great little surprise.”
About: I've owned and cared for dogs since childhood! I love small and large breeds and have experience with puppies and elderly dogs. All are loved in my home. Hey! I'm Nicole — a North Hollywood homeowner with a big fenced yard, lots of outdoor space, and a maltipoo puppy named Arff who'll happily show your doggy around. I also have a six year old who will happily spend time with your dog if they enjoy children! I work from home and all dogs are genuinely part of the family here, meaning your dog sleeps inside, hangs out with us, and gets real attention — not crate time. I keep things small on purpose: I host up to two guest dogs at a time so I can give full attention to your pet. Whether your dog is a puppy figuring things out or a senior who just wants a soft couch and some sunshine, they'll be comfortable here. We can also accommodate dogs that need a little extra space and a quiet setting. Just let us know what would be best!
“She was lovely and very understanding. My dog usually has a hard time playing with other dogs or even going with other people but she had no problem and Mason looked happy.”
About: I’ve loved and owned animals my whole life. I have a 1 year old Toy Australian Shepherd who loves other pups and people. We will love your pet too! I will feed, walk, and play with your pet. I love animals in all shapes and sizes. Whatever care your pet needs I’m happy to oblige I will treat your pet like they are my own! Any special care instructions or needs are no trouble at all. Your pet will have lots of care and love

Hi Brandy! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my dog. I am 100% satisfied with the care and attention you provided, and it truly gave me peace of mind. I would absolutely consider you again in the future to care for my dog. Thank you again for everything! Best regards, Maria Cabrera
Included tip for earlier this week. Jesse and her partner are the best! Their schedule is super flexible. I usually need their help last minute when a family member can’t watch our boy, and they’re always happy to help. At this point Milhouse knows her and her little dog well, and he adores them!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in San Fernando on Rover is $48.15 per day (as of June 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 .
As of June 2026, there are 6,834 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across San Fernando. 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 San Fernando 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 6,834 sitters in San Fernando, 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.
