“This was our first time using Rover.com and Daniella and Austin were the best. It away a last minute request and they replied quickly. The transaction was so easy. Bodie had a great time and I would definitely take him back. Thank you again!”
“Melinda and her family took the best care of our girl. Riley came back happy and full of love. Melinda was a great communicator and made it a very easy and enjoyable experience. We are already looking forward to the next play date!”
“Shelly was amazing and sent lots of pictures and videos of what a good time Wally had with her pups and at her home. She made him feel welcome and he was happy all day! Thanks Shelly !”
“Sara was great; Everything was handled professionally and with care - a plus that she had her own dog to play with mine, which was important to me when booking; She even left mine with a toy to go - needless to say, my pup left happy with Sara’s care.”
“Alexandra exceeded our expectations! Our pups were overly stressed from our vacation and immediately became acclimated to Alexandra and her home. She sent us pictures throughout the day which was great! Thank you so much!”
“A huge thank you to Sarah for watching over our pup Lucas! In addition to being very sweet and easy to work with, Sarah is observant and tuned into dog body language and cues. She gave Lucas a lot of time to settle in before introducing him to her dogs, and gave Lucas breaks when she felt like he was getting overstimulated. Overall we felt super comfortable leaving Lucas in Sarah’s very capable hands, and he came back home happy and tired!”
“Sammi was an amazing dog sitter that we were so lucky to meet! Our two dogs really loved spending time with Sammi and her husband. Sammi was incredibly attentive to our two dogs’ needs and took the time to get to know them, and their individual temperaments, and schedules which made the stay incredibly smooth! Sammi also provided regular updates with photos and videos which made us feel very safe and reassured! She was very professional in all regards and was nothing short of excellent. We will definitely rebook again :) Thank you so much for the outstanding care, Sammi and Sammi’s husband!”

About: I have experience caring for any kind of dogs and cats. I foster for the PAWS of Coronado Animal Shelter, raised and trained my Labrador Ace from a puppy and owned a senior rescue dog. I know how to care for puppies, teenager and elderly dogs, as well as kittens and cats. Our home has a front and back yard, both fenced and a living area plus an attached sunroom. I can separate pets if needed. I do own a cat, she has a room only she can get into, dogs have to stay outside but she usually roams the whole house. Can separate if needed. I also have the ability to take active dogs on walks or runs as I am an active person and runner. I am currently staying at home, so I have a very flexible schedule. I am available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays, making it easy to accommodate any pets needs . I have plenty of space for pets, including a front and back yard, both fenced, and a living area with an attached sunroom. I also have a large crate available if needed. One of the bedrooms is reserved as a no dog zone for cats.

About: Hi everyone! My name is Maida and I have had pets since a young age and have experience with dog training. I absolutely love all animals and will truly cherish any opportunity to take care of your baby. I have two little kids (2- and 4-year-old girl and boy) and one senior dog (13-year-old husky). We would assess how your baby would do with the kiddos and my dog for overnight boarding. For daycare or potty breaks, this should not be an issue as the kids are in school during the day from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. most days. I live in Oceanside in the Arrwood community and have a fully fenced-in yard and beautiful sidewalks and trails near me for adventures. My dog (Bandit) gets along with most dogs, gets along great with cats, and the kids love cats and dogs too. If this sounds good to you, I'd love an opportunity to meet your baby and see how I can be helpful to your family. I work from home so basically your baby would be my sidekick. We have a fenced in yard which they would have access to as long as you are okay with that. We can start the day with a walk and then hang out together -- if I go anywhere they can tag along with me or would be safe inside my home. I have a crate if needed, a fully fenced in backyard and because I work from home they would be under my supervision all day. If I have to step out they would either join me, I would crate them, or leave them to roam free in the home depending on what your preference is and what's best for the pet.
About: I have had a dog in my life from the age of 7. Currently I have two dogs who are gentle and used to other dogs. The neighborhood is gated and quiet for daily dog walks. The outside enclosure is small but completely safe. Laminate floors make it an easy clean up if there are any mishaps. I am a retired nurse who creates art at home. Therefore I can attend to your pet with ease. As mentioned above, our patio and outside area is small but safe with six foot fencing . Our dogs have easy access with a medium size screen pet door. If you pet is larger I will be home to let him/her out on a regular basis. Pet care suits my lifestyle as I am a homebody who loves to just hang with my pups while creating art. Living the retired life! My small but fenced secure patio with dog run makes for a safe environment. A walk about or two a day keeps them happy as well!

I have several raised dog beds and umbrellas, so pets can sun bathe or enjoy the shade.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - San Luis Rey
Saki had the best day with Bella and her husband! He came home happy, tired, and honestly seemed a little sad to leave them, which says everything. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was so well cared for. We’d absolutely book with Bella again, and Saki can’t wait to see them both!
Super awesome daycare experience for Frankie. He had so much fun he didn’t want to leave! He had so much play time, he got withdrawals and crashed out once we got home. Most definitely will be returning for boarding since Frankie has made good friendships with Erica and Felipe’s doggies 🐩
Sammi was an amazing dog sitter that we were so lucky to meet! Our two dogs really loved spending time with Sammi and her husband. Sammi was incredibly attentive to our two dogs’ needs and took the time to get to know them, and their individual temperaments, and schedules which made the stay incredibly smooth! Sammi also provided regular updates with photos and videos which made us feel very safe and reassured! She was very professional in all regards and was nothing short of excellent. We will definitely rebook again :) Thank you so much for the outstanding care, Sammi and Sammi’s husband!
Malia was awesome with my dachshund Penny! Penny has a huge personality for such a tiny dog and can be a little dramatic sometimes, but she loved Malia right away which honestly never happens. I could tell Penny was getting lots of attention and love the whole time and Malia kept me updated so I didn’t have to worry at all. When I got back Penny was happy, relaxed, and acting like she had her own little vacation. I would definitely trust Malia to watch Penny again and I know Penny will be excited to see her again!
Carie took really great care of Wee. She has a fenced yard with grass which is really lovely. I like that she has her own little pup and also does doggy day care so Wee can socialize a little more. Carie was really flexible with my pick up schedule (my flight was incredibly delayed) and she made my life easier by being so amenable. Carie is a great sitter and I will certainly be back!
We had such a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! Toto had the best day and was so well cared for. She was incredibly loving, attentive, and communicative throughout the stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in a home where he was treated like family. Toto got along great with her pup Tony and did wonderfully around the kids — which really speaks to how safe and positive the environment is. It’s clear she genuinely loves dogs and pays attention to their individual personalities and needs. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Toto and would absolutely trust her to watch him again anytime. Highly, highly recommend!
Anna was absolutely AMAZING with our pup Taco! Excellent communication and you could tell he had a blast while hanging out with Anna and her family! He put himself to bed early that night :) Definitely reach out to Anna if you need someone to take phenomenal care of your pup!
Dara was great! Perfect cozy house and backyard for hazelnut to play. Got all her energy released and got to play with sweet midnight. Her kids and family were great with hazelnut! Sent lots of pictures and I could tell she was made right at home. Would highly recommend her, will book again for sure!
Lisa is fantastic with my two small dogs. One of them is nervous but felt right at home with Lisa and her dog. They became a pack instantly. Lisa sends pictures during the day so you can rest assured your furry family members are safe and sound. I will be relying on Lisa to care for my girls often. Thanks so much for keeping them safe and happy!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in San Luis Rey on Rover is $37.74 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,685 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across San Luis Rey. 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 Luis 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 2,685 sitters in San Luis Rey, 86% 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.
