“Alexandra and Billy were wonderful! We felt completely secure leaving our Dobie with them. They made him feel right at home and took him on fun walks and adventures. I would highly recommend Alexandra and Billy to anyone looking for a safe and reliable place where their fur baby will be loved and very well cared for. We look forward to reaching out to them again when we’re back in the area! 🐾”

“Jenni provides excellent communication and a really calm, loving environment for dog daycare. She takes just one dog at a time. She has a very sweet, mellow dog of her own. In addition to walks, there is a sunny and fenced in courtyard. The location is easy to get to.”

“It was as perfect an experience as possible. Amazing communication, friendliness and flexibility including twice picking up an dropping off our baby at the hotel. We were at a dinner reception the first night, the wedding the second, and both times she told us not to worry if we were later than expected--"just have a good time, and so will we". True to word. Proof is that our dog which is a bit shy and skittish, ran to Katherine the second night. The pictures she sent of them all cuddling together really helped us have a great time. Can 't rate her high enough--just wish she lived closer.”

About: Dogs have always been family to me. After 16 wonderful years with my own beloved dog, I understand the love and trust every pet deserves. As a mom of three, I provide a safe, caring, family-friendly environment where your dog will be treated like one of my own, with plenty of love, attention, exercise, and updates while you're away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide dependable care. I'm available for dog walks daily between 9:00 AM and 7:00 PM, including weekends. I also offer boarding in a safe, loving, family-friendly home where your dog will receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you're away. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large, securely fenced backyard for supervised play and exercise, and a clean, comfortable home where dogs are treated like family. Because I work from home, your pup will receive plenty of attention throughout the day, along with regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I'll follow your dog's routine as closely as possible and provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing they're happy and well cared for.
“Andrea was very welcoming and accommodating. I had a last minute request, Luna felt very comfortable at their place and I'm sure had a great time. Thank you!”

“Very kind and gentle with our fur baby! They were also flexible on the drop off and pick up time. They live right by the beach and whale watching tour pier. We will hire them again when we come back to Santa Barbara!”

“I'm so happy that I found Honey! She and her pup Rosie were a great match for Bucky. Honey sent photos and updates often, and was very quick to respond. She was intuative with Bucky's needs and I knew he was in great hands. She has a comfortable home and bed that Bucky didn't want to get out of. This is my first experience on this app and I have no hesitation leaving Bucky with her in the future. Thanks again honey! A++”
“Tucker came home happy, healthy, and well loved. Something every pawrent needs to see to know their baby is in good hands. Miguel is a true pet professional and an asset to the community.”

“Ryan was very flexible and great with Zoey. Zoey went on many outings and was well cared for. I appreciated the pictures and updates. Zoey had a blast and was sad to leave. Ryan is very friendly and easy to work with.”

About: I'm a lifelong animal owner and lover - large breeds and small or with fur, scales, hooves, or feathers. My live-in partner is a work from home professional and certified dog trainer and I'm the Hospital Manager of a local veterinary hospital. Together, we offer a uniquely loving, experienced, and structured environment for pets of any size or special needs. Pets in our care are spoiled with snuggles and lots of love, treats (when permitted by their owners) and rarely spend time out of our sight. Long walks and playtime with our cattle dog and chihuahua wear out most dogs in no time. Unless specifically requested by their owners, dogs in our care are never crated for extended periods or locked inside without access to a fenced patio. Schedule: I offer an open, flexible schedule for clients with pets of all kinds. My pups and I begin each day with a walk to the beach, then home for a quick bath, brush, and nap before more playtime in the afternoon. Having someone that works from home allows all the time in the world for our pups and our visiting guests to be pampered, offering customized care for their unique needs. I treat drop-in visits like I would my own home, bringing in packages and ensuring everyone is happy and healthy before departing. Pets in my care are given extensive mental enrichment and physical exercise, with photos sent each visit to pet parents to ease any concerns and keep you informed about what your beloved furry family member is up to each day.
“Sophia was great with our 4 month old puppy. Sophia took great care of her, sent us updates and photos throughout the day, and was very easy to communicate with. We would definitely work with Sophia again in the future.”
“Lauren was so great to work with...she responded to the daycare request promptly and immediately jumped into asking lots of questions around Remys care. I knew he'd be in good hands. Thank you for the care Lauren...”

“Damian did a great job watching over our two little ones! He provided plenty of updates during their stay and we felt like we could relax while they were in his care. Bella and Duncan came back tired out which is exactly what we were hoping for. Highly recommend Damian if you are looking for a playdate for your pup! Looking forward to using him again 🙂”

“I can't recommend Sandy enough. We were in a bind needing a last-minute sitter, and she was incredibly responsive and flexible. She made the logistics simple. My fiancé had no trouble at all coordinating drop-off and pick-up. While we were away, she sent photo updates that showed our dog relaxed and happy. When we picked him up, he was clearly well-cared for and in great spirits. Sandy truly saved the day. Thank you!”

About: I grew up with dogs, love taking care of them and love to walk for hours! I am offering this service until I get a dog of my own :) I work from home with flexibility in my schedule. I love to get out for breaks during the day and live close to a dog park. I have a gated outdoor space and live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I also cover up my furniture so that the dogs can go on the couch.
“Jacob and his wife are wonderful to work with. They cared for our Bella, and sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. This is our 2nd time working together and we highly recommend them!”


About: I’ve owned and cared for pets over the course of my entire life. Dogs are my love and bring such joy into my world. I have always had a natural born connection that cannot really be explained. It’s a magnetism and I’m drawn to them as much as they are to me :). I have a deep understanding and knowledge of a variety of health issues that dogs commonly have including bone, joint, heart, GI issues and dietary restrictions. I’ve experienced quite a bit over the course of my life personally caring for dogs with these issues including blindness & deafness, injuries. I’m mature enough and a mom myself to confidently say that your family would be treated as my own would. I have also cared for and owned a variety of birds, fish, reptiles, bunnies, guinea pigs, chinchilla and then some! ;). Your animals would be loved as my own! Happy to do overnight care on somewhat short notice as well. Live in the Mission canyon area and have a gated yard with space for sun bathing and potty breaks/lizard chasing ;). Reliable car, DL, Insurance etc. - open to running errands, helping around the house (can discuss rate). My schedule is flexible and I’m available for boarding as well overnight with a little notice ahead of time. No problem with house sitting I have a gated yard and no pets. Nice neighborhood with friendly neighbors with dogs that enjoy each other. Local trails close by and the Riviera Theater close and other nice doggy friendly locations!
“I used to take my dogs to an awesome doggy daycare. As they got older, it was getting too tiring for them to be surrounded by so many dogs and it would take them couple of days to regain energy after one day of daycare. So I was looking for someone who could give them a quiet homely and safe environment, and specifically someone who accepted only a few dogs at once. Hillary fit the bill perfectly. Her two lovely pups are close in age with mine, and she rarely takes on any other dog beyond my two pups on the same day (unless another pup is staying overnight for boarding). Hillary and her family are very welcoming. She kindly accepted to do a meet & greet before i booked my first day of daycare. My dogs have been going two days a week for a few weeks now. They wag their tails on the way in and on the way out. They seem really happy which makes me happy. I’m very grateful for Hillary and the great care she gives to my two dogs.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Toro Canyon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 366 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Toro Canyon. 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 Toro Canyon 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 366 sitters in Toro Canyon, 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.
