“This was my first time using Rover for my 13 year old dog and I couldn't have been more satisfied! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with Donna. She let my dog and I come for an introduction a few weeks before our trip and that was so helpful. I would absolutely use Donna's services again and would highly recommend her!”
“This is long overdue, but Ally and her family are fantastic! Great communication, reliable, and flexibile. I'm a little picky when it comes to watching my doggo, Sumo, since he has a sensitive tummy but he's never had any issues. I'm so grateful that not only does he come home tired after a full day of play, but I don't need to worry about him getting sick. Would highly recommend!”
About: I have prior experience in a vet office, i have had multiple different types of family pets since I was young. Have had pet trainers in the family. I work from home, your pup will never feel alone and will receive plenty of attention throughout the day. My 12-year-old daughter, who absolutely adores dogs, will also shower them with love and extra cuddles. We’re home most weekends, ensuring a cozy, safe, and fun atmosphere for your pet. Whether it's playtime, relaxation, or just feeling at home, we make sure your pup enjoys every moment!" We have a large fenced yard with grass. We currently do not have another fur baby at this time.. My senior boy crossed the rainbow bridge a little while ago. So now we just want to love on other's and help where we can. We have a desert tortoise who roams the backyard and minds her own business. I do not have a doggy door, my prior dogs have all been trained to alert me or where on schedule or just got potty breaks when needed.
“Patty was amazing! She sent us regular updates and photos and our two pups, Mr. Waffles and Skittles, couldn't have been in better hands! We will definitely use her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a home-away-from-home for their pups.”
“Tony and his wife were fabulous. Bliss enjoyed her vacation. Tony played lots of ball with her which is her favorite thing to do. They kept her safe and send a picture of her looking happy in their yard. We will definitely use them again and would recommend you to as well!”
“Natalie and Ricardo were wonderful with our cats! Everything went exactly as planned, and they also took amazing photos of our cats, which we really appreciated. It gave us peace of mind knowing our cats were in such good hands. We highly recommend them and would happily book with them again!”
“What can I say except at Cynthia is incredible! Oliver gets so excited as soon as he sees that we are turning onto her street. I’m always at peace when he’s with her because I know that she’s giving him all of the love, snuggles and playtime that he wants and needs. I could ask for a better person to care for my little guy!”
“If I could leave 6 stars, I would. Stephanie has been so caring and attentive with my dog, I haven’t worried for a second about how he’s doing when she’s watching him. He’s been getting great exercise too and comes home exhausted. Her kids have been awesome with him too, to the point I think he’d have preferred staying with them vs coming home with me!”
“Stephanie was amazing! Very attentive to our two dogs and was great at keeping us up to date on how they were doing! Our pups always seemed happy in the photos and we will definitely ask her to watch them again! We were running later than we’d expected for their pick up and she was very gracious and patient with us, which we appreciated. Highly recommend her!!”

We have a nice backward where they can play (when the weather is nice) and we also normally walk the dogs every night during the summer (when it's coller) and normally during the day in the winter time. The house has all the protections and is already adapt to dogs since Eva lives here with us.

My pool is fenced and my chickens stay in their coop. I have a large 2 story home and allow my pets full access to the home.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m patient, loving, attentive, and very responsible. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds, including dogs with different medical conditions that require extra attention and care. I’m home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of love, companionship, playtime, walks, and gentle belly rubs to help them feel safe and comfortable just like at home. I truly enjoy spending quality time with dogs and making sure they feel happy and relaxed while in my care. I do not use crates. Dogs in my home are treated like family. I also have a small dog of my own who is very calm, friendly, and well-socialized. Because of this, I can only accept dogs that are friendly and comfortable around other dogs. I’m home full-time, so pet care is part of my daily routine. I’m available all day to provide supervision, frequent potty breaks, meals, playtime, walks, and plenty of love and attention. Pets are safe and comfortable in my home. I have a fully fenced backyard and supervise them at all times. My house is spacious, and the neighborhood is quiet, secure, and full of green areas for walks and play.
About: I love dogs and other animals. I always have dogs around my house. I find them very loving and entertaining. I love gardening and watching dogs run around me.

He is 3 years old and loves to play and run in the yard. He is very loving. Our big yard is fenced all around. Your dogs will sleep inside the house. Your dogs will get lots of love and attention. They will get enough exercise and playtime outside to stay healthy. They will eat on time as per schedule given time.
About: While I am new to Rover, I have been caring for my friends, family, and neighbors pets for the last 30 yrs. Just like humans, no two dogs are a like, so every job is catered specifically to your pets needs. I know how stressful travel can be on our animals so I always approach each assignment with extreme calm, patience, and positivity. I am a big believer in positive reinforcement. That way your dog/cat and I can build a strong and trusting relationship. I strive to treat everyone's pets as if they are my own fur babies. My full time job is caring for your fur baby and making sure they are healthy, happy, and comfortable, until you get home. Since this is AZ, our days are planned around the heat. In the winter we spend as much time outside as possible, walking, hiking, playing fetch. I like to teach new pups how to find treats in our designated dig spot in the backyard. In the warmer months I'll set an alarm early so we can still spend a few hrs outside before it gets too hot. I like to set up a kiddy pool so all of the pups can run around and cool off. I take AZ heat very seriously and am always on the look out for animals getting overheated. I will also always check the temperature of the sidewalk before heading out for a walk. If I'm caring for a pet in your home my in home visits include *Feeding and fresh water (I'll also keep the bowls clean) *Potty breaks *Playtime or cuddles *walks or enrichment time *medication management (if needed) *Mail collection *plant watering. If there is something you need done and it can be completed within the 30 min timeframe Id be happy to help. My goal is for your pup to feel happy, fed, and loved everyday before I leave. At my home I have a medium size fenced yard that is half grass half dirt. I also have a designated dig pit for the dogs who love to dig. I have a one yr old, male, 25lb mini Aussie/terrier mix, who is the welcome wagon and loves all dogs. He's available all day long to play or just cuddle in the sun. In the winter he gets walked 3 times a day and in the summer we go early in the am and late at night. We also enjoy going to the park when it is empty or hiking. I have a medium size crate in my bedroom but there is room for a larger one. If your pup prefers to sleep in his crate alone, I also have a guest bedroom they can go in. But I usually suggest letting your dog sleep in his crate or dog bed in my room since its a new environment.
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and treat every pet I care for as if they were my own. What sets me apart is the combination of genuine affection, attentiveness, and reliability I bring to each visit. I take the time to learn each pet’s unique personality, routines, and needs—whether it’s administering medications, going on long walks, or simply offering comfort and playtime. In addition to being dependable and communicative with pet parents, I’m confident in my ability to adjust and provide a safe, happy environment. My goal is to ensure both pets and their owners feel at ease while they're apart. I am an elementary school teacher, so I am currently on summer break, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I live in a neighborhood with lots of green belts and walking paths as well as our backyard. We have a doggy door and I can easily crate your fur baby if needed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Santan
Wow! What a great person to have representing Rover. She agreed to watch my dog while I took my 87y/o MIL to a Christmas concert. My timing got blown up the way only a MIL or an 87 y/o can do. The sitter rolled with the changes no questions asked. She’s a great communicator and dog sitter!!! Definitely will recommend and schedule another time!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Santan
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Santan on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 1,837 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Santan. 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 Santan 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 AZ 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 1,837 sitters in Santan, 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.
