“I would highly recommend Jacquelyn! She was very good with both of my young Rhodesian Ridgebacks, she was great with communication and flexibility. This was the first time I had left my young dogs somewhere other than home and with a new person, using positive training methods and a kind heart she set them up for a good experience. We are very grateful!”
“Denise was such a lifesaver! I had a sitter cancel last-minute before a work event and Denise stepped in and saved the day! She immediately put me at ease when meeting her and she has the perfect setup for my senior dog who is starting to need bathroom breaks more often. She kept me updated and sent me pictures throughout the day so I was never worried about my pup. 10/10 will book her again!!”
“Caitlin was fantastic! She sent so many photo and video updates throughout the day, which I absolutely loved — it made me feel so at ease being away from Toby. Her two dachshunds were wonderful with him too; they were sweet, gently playful, and the three of them got along really well together. Caitlin was also great about working with my schedule, even with a pretty early morning drop-off. Would 100% book with her again — highly recommend!”
“Had to do a last minute booking and Alexis was able to accommodate us and even did a last minute extension due to the evacuation, she is a literal life savor. 100% would rebook in the future.”
“Cher was excellent! I appreciated her communication and proactive updates with photos and videos. Link absolutely loved being with Cher and her son and I would definitely rebook the next time I am down in the area!”
About: I enjoy spending lots of time playing, walking and even a little training. I have also had senior dogs that need a little extra care and attention. I am recently unemployed and have lots of time available. I would love nothing more than to help as many pets/pet parents as I can. Dogs can enjoy lots of play time and walks as well as maybe a little place time and snacks. I have had senior dogs as well that just need some down time and cuddles. I have a big fenced in backyard that allows for lots of playtime or maybe some rest in the shade.
“Monique was wonderful! We set up and meet and greet and chatted for a little bit to talk all things Sophie. She made drop off and pick up quick and easy. Sophie updates flowed throughout the day and I could tell my girl was a happy pup! She was super flexible when I sprang an early pick up time and forgot to give her a better heads up since she’s quite close by. We are so appreciative of her flexibility. Thank you!”
“Once again, they never fail to amaze us! This is the second time she’s been with them and looks like Bentely had another great time!! Love love loveeeeee having Michael and Lara watch her :)))”
About: I used to have 27 cats and 2 dogs in my apartment. Many of them are picked up from the street or sick. After I work with the pet doctor, I training them, and help the autism and mental disabled people and seniors people. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available on weekends and weeks day. My apartment has no other pet right now! And All the animals like me, and I have so many years experience with pet. I can easily get along with good relationships with your pets.
“Catherine was Ahmaaazing! My babies are pretty picky with where they stay and who they like, so when I picked them up everyday and they seemed super happy after spending the day with her, I was super relieved! She kept me updated throughout the day and even sent me pictures. She took my babies on walks and even did some training with them. I wish she was free next week! lol. I give her a 10 out of 10!”
“Lola came back to me in one whole piece and happy :) thank you Kristin for taking care of my child (yes, I refer to my doggy as my child)! I will definitely book with you again when in need :)”
“Elise took excellent care of my 12 week old Miniature Pinscher, Alphonse. She sent photos and videos of his day with her and he was having a great time! I will use Elise again to puppy sit my puppy!”
About: PROFESSIONAL DOGWALKER & LONG-TERM PET SITTER & in LONG BEACH, CA Serving Belmont Heights, Belmont Shore, Bluff Park, Bluff Heights, Belmont Park, Rose Park, Carroll Park, Alamitos Heights, Bixby Knolls, Naples Island and more! Hi, I'm Jacob! I'm 32 and recently moved to Long Beach with my wife from NYC. I bring a friendly and fun energy that most dogs are naturally drawn to. My experience includes caring for both dogs and cats between 4 months-17 years old. I am an ideal sitter for high-energy dogs who need tons of attention, long and/or frequent walks, and extra play time while their owners are away. Skilled at senior dog care, including those with complex medical needs (including injectable medication) and frequent vet visits. I also provide bathing and basic grooming for longer stays at negotiable rates. LONG-TERM PET SITTING: I am a high-energy, hands-on sitter and will give your pets lots of love and attention. If I must leave your home for any reason, I always return within two hours. I keep emergency vet services and poison control information handy—though fortunately I've never needed to use either. I keep dogs on-leash outside of the house at all times. I closely follow house rules and strive to leave spaces in the same condition I found them or better. DOGWALKING & FEEDING: Daily walks for up to three (3) dogs at a standard hourly rate, up to 3x per day. Walks are 1 hour unless specified by the owner. I will refill your dog's food, water and medication if your dog needs it at that time. DOG BOARDING: If you prefer to board your dog, let's discuss long-term boarding options at my home. I live in an apartment complex with my wife, who also loves dogs. She works in-office 5 days/week and will not be involved in pet care. I have access to common yard space and live in a safe neighborhood that's ideal for daily walks. My wife is allergen sensitive, so dogs with excessive shedding or dander will not be a good fit. Rates may vary depending on your pets' specific needs. I live a short walk from the beach and will happily take your dog on a sandy adventure—no swimming allowed. I am currently available weekdays from Monday-Friday. I work part-time at a restaurant on Saturday and Sunday evenings, though my exact schedule varies and is subject to change. My work shifts are rarely longer than 8 hours. Dogs are kept on leash at all times while outside the house. I keep emergency vet services and poison control information handy, though I've fortunately never had to use either.
“Dolores is incredible — kind, genuine, and trust worthy. I dropped off my Aussie for a day so we could enjoy Knott's, and I am so glad I did. She sent me several updates with pictures of my pup having fun and enjoying her large yard. Her dog is a gentle giant and was so accommodating and kind to my dog. Her daughter was gentle and so sweet with my pup as well. Their home is clean and clearly very dog friendly, even with an extra guest room for their Rover guests to enjoy and dine in solo. She clearly understands dog behavior and cares for all animals dearly. I would absolutely book again and recommend for all dogs!”
About: For the first time in 23 years I am living without a dog. I have had anywhere from my last solo pup to a pack of 4. I have gone through training with previous dogs so have experience with commands and reactive walkers. I have done dog sitting in other people’s homes, in my own, as well as drop ins and walks. Most of all I love dogs and am not quite ready to adopt again, but would love to help you with yours! I work for myself from home so I have an extremely flexible schedule. I am available most days and times depending on what you need. I have a spacious apartment that your pet will have free range of. There is no fenced yard, but I am in a very walkable neighborhood with parks nearby. And if your dog likes the beach I am just a short distance to Huntington Dog Beach.
About: With over 35 years experience caring for dogs, I truly love them & treat every pup like family. I've cared for different breeds & sizes, from 10lbs to 150lbs. I provide loving, safe, dependable care & will give your pets the attention, patience, & affection they deserve. I'm home full time, which gives me the flexibility to provide your pet with plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day and night. There will be lots of potty breaks, sun bathing & play time while they get tons of love & affection! I have a large fenced yard and a 9 Year old English Bulldog, Maggie, who would love to keep your pets company during their stay.
“Jacquelyne was an amazing sitter and took such great care of my cockapoo for a few days. I always felt good about dropping him off and knew he was in good hands. Great communication and photos along the way as well!”
“Alyssa took great care of Lily, made communication easy and kept us updated throughout the day! Lily enjoyed her day relaxing and exploring. We would definitely book a stay with Alyssa again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sunset Beach
Lisa and her family were wonderful and loving to our Tika. Tika has a home away from home! She will be spending a week with them soon. I’m so happy that I can leave and know Tika is in loving and caring hands! What I love the most is that they understand her playfulness and curiosity. I highly recommend this family for your fur babies!!
Our dog Lexi made herself at home with Carrie, Sean, their son, and their two dogs. We got pictures of her relaxing and enjoying herself. Lexi got along with their mellow dogs. We were also happy that they have a young son because Lexi loves children. Arrival and departure were on time and easy. We will be booking with them again.
Denise is the best! My dog is a senior dog who requires a lot of a TLC and even more kisses. Denise delivers on every front and more and I cannot recommend her more highly! She kept me informed and made me feel so comfortable with every aspect of the process. Mostly importantly, I trust her and so does my boy!
Megan and her family were so kind, loving, and attentive to our dogs. They sent photos, gave them lots of toys to play with, walked them several times during the day, had treats and even gave them baths! My frenchies can be a bit demanding and they took such great care of them, I felt totally at ease leaving our doggies with them. 🥰 We would love to book with them again when we’re back in the area!
Kayla is an amazing dog sitter! She has excellent communication & sent several pictures throughout the day. She was also very flexible with a last minute request and went above and beyond with walks, ensuring that my fur baby was nice and tired. Would absolutely recommend!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Sunset Beach is $37 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $61 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 6,870 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Sunset Beach. 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 Sunset Beach 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 6,870 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 .
