“Shuvashna helped with a last minute appointment. She sent me pics of Cassius throughout the day and I could tell he was having a ball. He got home, ate and promptly went to sleep. I already rebooked for another day. Thank you so much!”
“This was the first time I brought Charcoal with Rosa, she is kind and at the end of each day it was seen that Charcoal had been comfortable. Rosa answered messages quickly and sent photos of our dog. Of course I would take Charcoal with her again. She also speaks Spanish which was a plus.”
“Lily is a wonderful sitter that loves my dog as if she were her own! I would definitely reach out to Lily if I need care for Nyxie again. You will not regret asking her to care for your beloved pup ❤️ Thanks so much Lily!”
“Thank you so much for being able to take in Ozzy and Sansa so last minute. They seem to have had a great time and were really excited when they got to come back for a second day!”
“Jalen was fabulous! He was able to accommodate on short notice and was very easy to work with and professional. Super attentive, verbally gave detailed reports of my pups behavior, comfort levels and bathroom breaks if asked. He had my pup on Christmas Eve and Christmas and it was a breeze. I also appreciated that he asked detailed questions about Dante. Stellar!! Thank you Jalen! :)”
“We had a perfect first experience with Nicole! She was so kind and welcoming to our shy, nervous boy. He warmed up to her quickly and definitely enjoyed the company of the critters who live there. We look forward to continuing our relationship with her and Joe!”
“Huey loves going to Ruthy's! He always walks into her place confidently. She takes the dogs to the park at least twice a day, works on training, cuddles with him and socializes him with other people. I'm SO lucky to have found her! She treats Huey like he's her own. Thank you Ruthy!! ”
“I cannot recommend Andre highly enough! From the meet and greet, it was clear he was a true dog lover and incredibly professional. He took wonderful care of our dog Charlie, and provided updates with photos. It was such a relief he was in such good hands. We will absolutely be booking again and highly recommend him!”
“Baxter has stayed Andrea and her pups twice for daycare, with hopefully more days to come! Andrea has a gentle, kind spirit and seems very attuned to a dog's needs. At our meet & greet, she asked great questions about Baxter and his routines. She provided fun updates with pics a few times a day -- much appreciated!”
“Such an amazing visit. Hudson had a blast and burned so much energy playing with oscar, he barely had the energy to make it home! ? Iryna provided frequent updates with pics throughout the day so we always knew what the little dude was up to. We will definitely be booking again!!”
“Tamara was great from our first meet and greet. She put me at ease with her calm demeanor and her knowledge about dogs. Kahlo is a newly adopted dog so I am still anxious leaving her with others and Tamara answered all my questions and also shared knowledge about dogs which I still desperately need. She was quick to respond to my texts and gave me updates throughout the day. I felt at ease throughout my workday. Kahlo spent the day playing with her dog, Sidney and was happy and tired when I picked her up. I am very thankful I found Tamara. She is a true gem.”
“Tatiana is a nice, sweet, and pleasant lady. She welcomed us even though I was late for a scheduled drop off time. She answered my questions right away and I understood how she spent her day with Tatiana’s care. She took my dog out to the park and walked her around the park. I know my dog enjoyed staying with her because she seemed tired when I picked her up and went to sleep right after we got home.”
“We’re so happy we found Pamela! From our very first interaction, we had such a good feeling about her. Rex is a sensitive boy with separation anxiety, so we’re always a little nervous leaving him with someone new. But throughout his stay, we felt like he was in really good hands. Pamela sent us photo updates, which we absolutely loved, and it was so reassuring to see Rex having a good time. She was also incredibly flexible and accommodating, which we really appreciated. When we picked Rex up, he was calm, happy, and not stressed at all. We’ve already booked several more stays with Pamela and are so glad we found someone we feel comfortable leaving Rex with. Highly recommend!! You’ll love her… but please don’t steal all of Rex’s future bookings! Haha 😂”
“Didem was amazing! She was able to help me watch Lottie with a day’s notice. She also kept me posted on all things Lottie and really wanted to understand her the best she could to make her comfortable. Lottie usually takes a while to warm up to new people, but Lottie warmed up to her almost immediately. I know she had a great time with Didem! I will definitely be reaching out to Didem in the future! Thank you so much for watching Lottie! :)”
“Sydney treated my dog as her own. Her space for them is lovely and she is kind and very accommodating to pets needs. I would bring my senior dog here again for sure ! Highly recommend”
“Loved all the photos!! Matthew and Van Joseph were so patient and caring with my nervous gal. It was obvious that Ramona felt comfortable there - she’s been super leash reluctant, but they got her to go on 2 walks during daycare!! Huge success. They were super communicative and great. Can’t wait to bring Ramona back and watch her settle in even more :)”
“He was so amazing and accommodating! Loved Anthony and Brody loved him too. Best part he made a joke that he tired our Brody from a full day of play and I loved that! Made our commute home easy. Highly recommend him!”

Super pleased- Jonathan stepped up & accepted our dog sitting at the last minute- after our other dog sitter fell through. Absolutely appreciate the videos & pictures of our boys - Thank You Jonathan for taking care of our boys- I would recommend Jonathan & definitely use his service again .. 👍
Taty and Lenin are amazing sitters for Oreo. They are kind, communicative, & keep him active so when I’m home from work, he’s happy and calm. They’ve been very mindful of what he eats, walking him, training, as well as trying to get him to be less scared of.. well.. everything! 😅 I began booking them everyday in at work to ensure Oreo is well loved. I highly recommend these two wonderful human beings for anyone’s fur baby.
Emerson and his family were great sitters for Bernie. Communication was strong, he even sent pictures and a video to let me know how things were going. We meet the day before so that they would be familiar to my dog. It was a good match from the very beginning. We will definitely use them again.
Julia and Michael have been amazing with our girl Bubba and have always been flexible when we’ve had early or late pickups for her. Bubba absolutely loves coming over and playing with their dog, Cas and always gets excited as soon as we pull up to their place!
My dog had a wonderful time with Jason & Anna! They sent many great photos of Fatima enjoying her time including rest time, play time and walks! Fatima definitely had a wonderful time with you both and I’m thankful for the time you spent helping her feel comfortable and cared for. Thank you!!!

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 Leandro 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 5,499 sitters in San Leandro, 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.
