Harper - thank you so much for hosting Alonzo these last two days! I know when he was so excited to see you on the second day that you took such good care of him and he had a great time! I really appreciate you looking after him so well and all of the pictures and videos you sent me throughout the day. We will for sure come back to you any time we’re in San Jose and I’ll recommend you to anyone here! Thanks again!!! Mikah and Alonzo

Tatiana walked my dog three times while staying at her house and gave her good exercises. She let my dog playing at the park and hanging out with her ground children. I’m sure that my dog had a good time. She also took good care of her by checking her food, trying to feed her until she got enough. She is a good walker and caregiver as well. I’m happy and comfortable to leave my dog with her.

Cindy was a lifesaver during my stressful workweek. She took care of Panda and made sure she felt loved and comfortable. She kept me updated throughout the day and knew I’d be off later and was flexible with my schedule - absolutely fantastic! I had regular updates with Panda being spoiled with love by her girls. I’ll definitely use her again when I need a sitter. Thanks a million!

She was incredibly patient and caring with my puppy. Since he hasn’t completed all of his vaccinations yet, she was able to accommodate him by only watching one dog at a time, which gave me great peace of mind. She regularly sent me photos and updates, so I always knew how he was doing. She also helped with his potty training and was very attentive to his needs. I could tell she genuinely cared about him and treated him like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and responsible dog sitter! I will definitely rebook her if needed in the future! Thanks Yan!

About: I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals from dogs to also small animals and reptiles. I’ve grown with dogs through all stages of their life from puppies to senior dogs. I feel I’ve always been empathetic to what animals may want/need, able to read their body language, always up for playing or cuddling, etc. I currently have a high energy mixed dog that I’ve trained myself. I’ve cared for her through being a puppy, her needs after surgeries, giving medications, helping comfort through anxiety, and playing throughout the day to take care of her energy needs. I have a big back yard if you need day care and your dog would have a companion to play with! We take daily walks that we’d love to have your pup join! I am a stay at home mom so I have complete availability to help care for your pets! I currently walk my dog every morning, but that can be adjusted to fit your needs for your dog to be walked. Because I’m a stay at home mom, day care is completely open for your pet to be at my house. We allow pets on furniture so your pet can be comfortable. Our dog is high energy so your pup can also get some energy out! Our backyard is very big to accommodate any running/playing they’d like to do. If daycare isn’t needed, I’m completely available to check in on your pet anytime as well! If your pet is coming to my house, it is completely open for your pet to feel comfortable and explore their surroundings. Our back door is always open so they can use the bathroom when they want to or also play and run around with our dog! Water is always out and available. If you’d like check ins at your home, I would of course respect your home and privacy. Nothing would be touched unless necessary to care for your animal the way you’re asking me to. Whatever your needs are, I will completely follow.

About: I have experiences with Senior care and basic training for puppies. I watch their body languages carefully to know when to pause a play and what they need from me :) Leia and I usually go for a walk in the morning, around 5 in the afternoon and quick bathroom break before going to bed. I work from home most of the time so id love to help to care for another dog so they’re not depressed alone at home whole the parents are off to earn money for their their pawbills 😝 I help to care for friends dogs when they need and I feed them together but separately so they don’t get food aggressive. I also monitor toys so it doesn’t create fights. Because I have Leia, I know the struggle and guilt feelings when you have vacation planned and need to leave the pup. I try my best to give lots of updates and pics so the humans can enjoy their time away as well.

About: I have 9 years of experience caring for dogs, and I love hiking with them! If hiking isn’t your thing but your dog loves it, I might be a great fit for you. For safety reasons, hiking is available for dogs under 30 lbs who have good on-leash manners :) During the boarding stay, I will be at home with your pet. Please share your pet’s daily routine with me, and I’ll do my best to keep everything as close to their usual schedule as possible. If you would like your pet to go on an on-leash hike during weekend boarding, please let me know in advance. This service is available for well-behaved pets only, for safety reasons. During the service period, I’ll keep you posted with updates on how they’re doing like how much they’re eating and drinking, their energy level, and their potty/poop situation.

About: I have a spacious backyard, no pets of my own, and the time to give each dog plenty of attention. I have experience with dogs of different personalities and energy levels and enjoy keeping them active with walks, playtime, and plenty of backyard time. I’m also big on communication and will keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay. My goal is for your dog to feel comfortable, safe, and at home while you’re away. I work from home with occasional office visits, so I’m around the house most of the day and can give your pup plenty of attention. My schedule is pretty flexible, with time for walks, backyard play, and regular breaks throughout the day. I’ll make sure their routine stays consistent while you’re away, with plenty of time for naps, playtime, and lounging. I keep my home clean, calm, and dog-friendly, with a spacious backyard for safe play and fresh air. I’m attentive to each dog’s routine, personality, and comfort level, and I never assume every dog needs the same type of care. I’m also careful about introductions, feeding, doors and gates, and keeping dogs supervised when needed. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep you updated throughout their stay with photos and messages. Most importantly, I want you to feel confident that your dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re with me.

About: With over 16 years of experience in veterinary medicine and a lifetime of loving and caring for animals, I bring professional knowledge and genuine compassion to every pet I care for. My background includes veterinary assisting, client education, hospital management, and working alongside veterinarians to provide exceptional patient care. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments, including puppies, kittens, seniors, and pets with medical conditions or special needs. I am comfortable administering oral medications, monitoring behavior for signs of illness, following detailed care instructions, and maintaining daily routines. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to build trust, provide enrichment, and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give pet parents complete peace of mind knowing their furry family member is receiving experienced, attentive, and compassionate care. Pet care has always been a natural part of my life, both personally and professionally. I intentionally schedule my time so I can provide reliable, unhurried care and give each pet the individual attention they deserve. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, an extended walk, overnight companionship, medication administration, or simply someone to spend quality time with them, I am committed to maintaining their normal routine. I understand that consistency helps pets feel secure, and I pride myself on being dependable, punctual, and flexible whenever possible to meet the needs of both pets and their families. Your pet’s health, safety, and happiness are always my highest priorities. My veterinary background allows me to recognize subtle changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, or overall health that others may overlook. I carefully follow all feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise requirements, and household routines exactly as requested. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your home with the same respect I would my own while creating a calm, low-stress environment for your pet. I use secure leashes and harnesses during walks, supervise outdoor time, monitor interactions with other animals, and provide plenty of affection, playtime, and enrichment. I also believe communication is key, so you’ll receive regular updates and photos, allowing you to relax knowing your beloved companion is in experienced, caring hands.

I live in a gated apartment and there is barely too none dogs that live around the neighborhood and the ones who do are very friendly

About: I’ve cared for many different kinds of pets since high school. Just in the last two years I’ve learned a lot about dog behavior as my husband and I have adopted two pups of our own. They are both around 2. I love to play and teach them as we are all growing together as a family. I had a dog in high school as well and walked her everyday. I also helped care for our kitties, as we had a few growing up. We also have three kitties now whom we love and play with everyday. Pets are like kids, they all have their own personalities and it’s fun to learn who they are just like people. I’m currently working an odd schedule and it’s been quite slow. Would be nice to make a little extra cash while helping someone else exercise their pup, or take care of them. I like to let pets get to know me and some need more time than others. Depending on the pet they may come to greet me or hide. It’s best to let the pet approach me first when they are ready. I like to use treats for commands, rewards, and/or bribes. Pets love to play and I am good at that! Outside is a little more dangerous as you never know what another person’s dog is like. I usually avoid strange dogs and anything that I see could be harmful. I like a close leash to make sure pets don’t eat strange things on the ground and I can watch them closely to look out for something before they get to it. Pets are quick and you have to see it before they do!

We had such a wonderful experience with Shuvashna watching our 4.5 month puppy! She was an amazing communicator and kept us updated throughout the day with plenty of photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. I especially appreciated how thorough she was in sharing updates about Bernie’s potty breaks, behavior, and how he interacted with the other pups. Her yard is also fantastic—Bernie had plenty of space to run around, play, and get his energy out. It was clear that he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would 100% rebook with her! Highly recommend! 🐶❤️

Cinnamon stayed with Siu Kei for a last-minute booking, and I really appreciated how accommodating he was. Drop-off and pick-up were easy, and he had a bed, crate, and water station ready for her when we arrived. I also received an initial update with photos shortly after she settled in, which was reassuring. If I had one small suggestion, it would just be a couple more updates throughout the stay or a quick recap at pick-up, as it's always nice to hear how your pup's day went. Other than that, everything went smoothly, and Cinnamon seemed happy and comfortable. We'd definitely recommend Siu Kei and would consider booking with him again!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - San Lorenzo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in San Lorenzo on Rover is $43.29 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 .

As of September 2026, there are 5,680 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across San Lorenzo. 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 Lorenzo 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 5,680 sitters in San Lorenzo, 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.
