“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!”
“Lindsey is absolutely wonderful! She watched our little boy while we were at a wedding and she took great care of him! She sent frequent videos and pictures and updates and I wondered if he’d even want to leave haha. She made a potentially stressful day completely worry-free!”
“Ashlyn and her fiance were so great! We have an anxious golden and they did a wonderful job putting him at ease. They gave the dogs (we have two) a ton of attention and sent so many awesome photos. We also love that they only take one family's dog(s) at a time to hang out with their own dog Boots. Looking forward to using them again.”
About: I have had many pets, but mainly dogs over the years. Raised some from puppies and currently have a very nice and well taken care of elderly dog. I also have 2 cats. Looking forward to meeting your furry loved one. I work from home and have a very flexible work schedule. My dog can also hang out or walk with yours if they need some company. Happy to follow any rules or special requests to keep your dog(s) safe and comfortable, whatever makes you and your dog feel the most at ease.
“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.”
“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.”
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!
About: I’ve always enjoyed being around dogs and understand how important it is to have someone reliable caring for your pet while you’re away. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and comfortable following feeding, walking, playtime, and daily care instructions. I’ll treat your dog with care and respect, keep you updated, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while they’re with me. I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and companionship, and I can follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. I live in a comfortable apartment with a good-sized patio and access to a dog park inside my apartment community for walks, exercise, and playtime. I also have a very friendly and loving Golden Retriever who enjoys having other dogs around. I always supervise pets carefully, follow the owner’s instructions, and make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I have over 20 years of experience owning and caring for friend’s dogs and cats. I have cared for senior animals and ones with medical needs as well. I work fully remote, so lots of attention and activity are on the board! We go on a couple walks a day and there is a dog social in my neighborhood if you are amenable to that. I have a dog and cat at home and they are used to other animals in their space and share it well. I follow detailed instructions well.
“Smoke had the best time. The photos Rebecca sent showed him waiting for treats and passed out after a fun play day. He definitely had a wonderful day. Rebecca and her family were very loving.”
“John is a consummate professional and dog whisperer. He was able to quickly assess our dog's temperament and provide services based on her needs. Our dog looks forward to staying with John in the future.”
“Arlene is an incredible person and great dog mom! My dogs instantly loved her and her spacious back yard!! The home is very cozy and dog friendly. We appreciate Arlene for being caring and attentive toward our doggies. My three little ones had a blast. They are all going back for a sleepover in another day. This is definitely the perfect home away from home ❤️❤️❤️???”
“This is my first ever Rover experience and Angie did a great job. My dog had a very nice first stay. She sent me pictures and update videos of my dog Bentley. Thank you for taking such great care of my sweet fur baby. Thank you!”
“Sandra was great, we really liked how she was very responsive, on time and on top of that she send me updates of our little Lui during his stay at her home. We highly recommend her, thank you for taking care of our little Lui!”
About: Lifelong Animal Lover with 40+ Years of Hands-On Pet Care Experience I’ve been a dedicated pet owner for more than 40 years, caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My lifelong experience has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, routines, and the importance of patience, consistency, and trust. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have periodically fostered animals to help prepare them for successful adoption into loving homes. This experience has included helping pets adjust to new environments, providing comfort and structure, reinforcing positive behaviors, and giving them the attention they need to thrive. Whether your pet needs a dependable walk, companionship while you’re away, or calm and attentive care, I provide a safe, loving, and responsible environment. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I own my own business and primarily work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive pet care. Your pet will receive regular walks, playtime, companionship, and personalized attention throughout the day. I’m able to accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise needs, and extra cuddle time to help them feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I have a secure fenced yard for supervised outdoor play, exercise, and bathroom breaks. Inside the home, pets have a clean, comfortable space to relax and feel at ease. I closely follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, and preferred sleeping arrangements. In a client’s home, I respect your space while making sure your pet feels secure, cared for, and stress-free in their familiar environment. Safety, trust, patience, and consistent attention are always my top priorities.
“Susannah and Richard were warm, communicative and wonderful! I can tell that Birdie really enjoyed her afternoon with them and I will be rebooking soon. I love that they are so close to Open space for walks and can also walk Birdie downtown. Highly Recommend!”
“Ashley is a compassionate, calm pet sitter. I scheduled a meet and greet with my dog Piper ahead of day care date. We were greeted warmly and Piper enthusiastically explored her peaceful, pet safe yard. Piper was eager to return for her day of fun, and loved her 3 walks and frisbee play. Thank you, Ashley!”

My dog had a great time with Julia! I could tell because he came back to me very tired and very happy, which I appreciated because he fell asleep right when I got home and I could relax, lol. Julia was also very professional and very kind with her communication. I would definitely book with Julia again!
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.

Ciana and her husband were great caring for Fred, our 10 years old Westie! I was a bit nervous leaving Fred for the first time, as he has EPI and requires extra care with the preparation of his meals (he takes pancreatic enzymes). Ciana went above and beyond to keep me at ease and did a fantastic job with Fred. Thank you Ciana! We’ll definitely reach out again next time we’re in Napa!
Katie was absolutely wonderful with Ricky and Randy! They clearly loved her and had such a great day! Walks, thoughtful updates, and lots of care. I felt completely at ease knowing the pups were in such good hands, and it was obvious they were happy and well cared for. I’m so glad we found Katie and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Union is $49 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $77 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 2,052 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Union. 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 Union 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 2,052 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 .
