“Sarah and her husband Matt we’re awesome doggy daycare for Libra! They sent pictures and gave me updates throughout the day. They’re very welcoming and I felt my dog was safe and happy while she was there. I would use her again and highly recommend you do too!”
“Mackenzie was super flexible, communicative and professional. My pup had a great time under her watchful eye. She followed all of my directions to a tee and then some. She went above and beyond to make sure my girl was happy as well as keep me updated on her stay. If you’re looking for someone seasoned to take care of your pets, Mackenzie is your gal!”
“First time we sent our dog to a sitter for the day and I think it went really well. Shayla and Jacob were welcoming and had lots of dog friendly areas. We would feel great about leaving our dog with them again.”
“Ashlynn (and Boots) were fantastic! Pickles had the best time with both. Ashlynn took Pickles on a great adventure, was thoughtful and communicative (about dinner, treats, rules, etc). We were so grateful for her and her treating pickles like her own”
“Julie is such a gem. My seven month old dog Gigi had a great time with Julie, her family and her other dogs. Her fenced backyard and playtime with the other dogs, and Julie was a very enriching experience for my dog. She was all tuckered out at the end of the day. We recently adopted our dog and this was our first Rover experience and Julie really put me at ease. I appreciated her great and fast communication. I really enjoyed receiving the photos she sent me throughout the day. Next time I’m in Napa I would definitely like to bring Gigi to Julie‘s home for daycare! Thank you, Julie!”
“Just visiting the area and super grateful to have found Jestina so I could attend an event. She loved my energetic boxer mix as if she were her own. I appreciated the updates, pix and video, and also the warm interest she took in my own life too! (Sometimes the dogs get all the attention!) Highly recommend and will use again when in town! Thank you, Jestina!”
“Stephanie kindly agreed to watch our pup when our dog sitter fell through last minute, and maintained good communication, sending updates and pics throughout the day. Much appreciated!”
“Great and easy experience dropping our high maintenance baby off with Christina for a few hours so we could go to a party in town. She was very chill and easy to correspond with. He slept the whole way home so obviously had a good visit with her. Thank you, Christina!”
“Thank you for taking great care of Toto. The photos of him with mochi are so cute. They look like great friends! It was so great to see all the updates with the playing and napping. It was a nice vacation day for him.”
“David took amazing care of Otis! I'm not the easiest owner as I'm always worried about my pup. I've almost always failed to successfully find someone on Rover. David was communicative, helpful, and just clearly understands and knows how to care for dogs. His dog Rosie is really sweet, too. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to leave my dog with David and was totally comfortable the entire time I was away. I will definitely use David anytime I'm in the Napa area for overnight care or just someone to watch Otis for the day.”
About: Hi pet parents! If you’re looking for someone who will treat your animals like absolute royalty while you’re away, I’m your girl. Growing up around animals, my love for them runs deep—seriously, I love all kinds of animals. But what really sets me apart is a mix of high energy and endless patience. I'm naturally super active, so if you have a high-energy dog who needs long walks, a solid jog, or endless playtime to burn off zoomies, I’m your person. At the same time, I have tons of patience. Whether your pet is an anxious rescue, a senior who needs a slower pace, or just a little stubborn, I always keep my cool and meet them right where they are. When you book with me, you get a sitter who is reliable, detail-oriented, and obsessed with making your pets happy. Expect plenty of photo updates and total peace of mind while you're out! I’m currently working part time and at home! I’m fully working on my own schedule which makes watching pets a breeze! Can’t wait to meet your pets! My house is three stories with a patio. I live right next to multiple parks. We have a very lively pet loving community with tons of supervision and pet cameras for the house.
“Dustin took such great care of our pup! Really appreciated his great communication and quick responses both before and during our dog's stay. Our dog usually gets anxious when we're away from him, but he was a happy boy when he came back from staying with Dustin! Can tell Dustin really cares for animals. Would definitely work with him again! Also our dog loved running around his spacious yard. :)”
“Luna loved her time with Marina. She was treated to play time, walks, new toys, and cuddles on the couch. Luna was immediately at ease with Marina, as were we. Thank you, Marina, for taking such good care of our sweet girl.”
“I was in Petaluma for the day and Zahra did a amazing job of making him feel safe and sound while I was away. Highly recommend for senior or anxious dogs like mine. Prior to the visit, good communication. Thank you.”
About: I would be a great option to care for someone's dog, because I would treat their beloved as my own. I have personal experience as well as trained experience, having worked with my dog and a professional trainer for the past few years. I have professional and personable experience - a dynamic duo! I am a pet parent myself, so I understand the love & care needed to help our pets live healthy & fun lives.
“Adriana is lovely to work with and conscientious about watching the dogs and making sure they are safe as they play.She has a nice play area for the dogs. My dog loved her young Golden Retriever and they had a great time”
About: I've had many pets (dogs and cats) off and on throughout my life and love animals of all kinds. Been on rover for a couple of years now and have many references if needed! I will take dogs on walks and do my best to keep up their current routine! Please let me know if you have any questions and I Iook forward to meeting you and your pet soon! I will respect any rules or boundaries you may have for your pets eating and walking habits. As long as I have a list of what’s needed, you can be confident your fur baby is in good hands!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sonoma
Since I couldn't bring my dog on the Napa winery tour, I left her with Angela. She has a lovely fenced yard at home, and above all, her kindness helped me wrap up my trip smoothly. After leaving her the first day and being very satisfied, I trusted her to watch her again on the second day. When we arrived, seeing my dog eagerly greet Angela put my mind completely at ease. She truly seems like someone who loves and cares for animals from the bottom of her heart. If you ever need someone to watch your dog around Napa, I highly recommend Angela!
We’re very happy to give Evan another 5 star review! This is the second time Evan has provided day care for our shepherd mix, Buster. Evan’s calm presence puts our dog at ease right away. His convenient location near the square in Sonoma allows us to drop Buster off and enjoy some touristy time and visit our friends. Evan sent a cute pic to assure Buster was happily chilling. Evan has a fenced yard and nice house, and we feel perfectly at ease leaving our dear Buster with him. Highly recommend, and we will certainly contact Evan again for our dog sitting needs!
Our Golden Retriever, Jasper, had a great doggy dare care yesterday and certainly had a great sleep last night. He enjoyed playing with his new pal Reggie, and seemed to fit in seamlessly with Faye and Scott's household. Faye & Scott both have a great understanding of dogs.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Sonoma
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Sonoma is $44 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $70 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 2,720 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Sonoma. 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 Sonoma 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.
As of October 2026, there are 2,720 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of CA. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
