The yard is clean and secured and upon drop off, there a welcome sign for mudpie :) Great communication as I recieved photos, video and status of his restroom break, meals. You can tell Blanca loves animals and your fur baby will be well taken care of.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! Sang was caring, responsible, and treated our dog like her own. We felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in such good hands. Sang kept us updated, were very attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure our dog was happy and comfortable. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and reliable dog sitter. 🐶❤️

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for over 15 years and genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet day full of cuddles, I adjust my care to make them feel comfortable and secure. I believe pets deserve patience, kindness, and lots of affection, and I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. My goal is simple: for you to enjoy peace of mind while your dog enjoys a safe, loving home where they’ll be excited to return. Pet care is my full-time focus, so I’m home seven days a week and able to provide plenty of love, attention, and supervision. I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and like part of the family. My dog, Milo, is my friendly little assistant and loves welcoming new furry friends. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I provide constant supervision, a clean and pet-friendly home, frequent potty breaks, daily walks, and lots of one-on-one attention. My building has a secure dog run, beautiful walking paths, and a nearby park for extra exercise and enrichment. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you always know how they’re doing.

She was amazing with Sprite. I needed a last minute daycare while i was in town, and she was available, and they immediately clicked when we met up. She also sends photos and updates throughout the day to make me feel less anxious. Her building is super pet friendly so that also made me feel comforting. She's the best!!

Sheila was so kind and inviting with our shy guy and communicative from the start. She sent pics and updates throughout the entire stay. Pickles gets a little bit of separation anxiety and Sheila gave him the calm care that he needs. She was extremely understanding when we were running late - we would love for Sheila to watch Pickles again in the future! :)

About: English/ 中文 /粤语 My wife and I both grew up with dogs and have 20+ years of experience between us keeping them happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We have a friendly 3 year old of our own at home and would love to find her a playmate. Your dog won’t be spending the day alone. We live in a downtown high rise, so your pup gets a clean, climate controlled space, elevator access for quick potty breaks, and multiple walks a day around the neighborhood. We’re very comfortable with high energy breeds, feeding and medication schedules, crate routines, and whatever your dog is already used to. Send us their normal routine and we’ll stick to it. We’ll also send photo and video updates so you know exactly how they’re doing. Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily and weekly routine. I work fully remote, which allows me to be home for the majority of the day and readily available to provide consistent supervision, companionship, walks, feeding, and playtime. While I occasionally need to step out to visit local customers, these outings are typically short and planned, ensuring your pet is never left alone for extended periods. My wife is a PhD student in medical school and works in a hybrid setting, so between the two of us, there is almost always someone home. She also has extensive professional experience with animal care, including administering medications and injections, monitoring health and behavior, and responding calmly to any medical or behavioral needs that may arise. Together, we are able to accommodate a wide range of pet needs, including structured routines, special diets, medication schedules, senior pet care, and extra attention for pets that require it. We prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible and providing a safe, calm, and attentive environment where they feel comfortable and well cared for. We care for pets in our home by providing a safe, comfortable, and attentive environment that allows them to feel relaxed and well-loved. We live in a spacious 2b2b high-rise apartment, which gives pets plenty of room to move around, rest, and have their own quiet space when needed. Our apartment complex includes two well-maintained dog parks, which allow us to provide regular outdoor exercise, playtime, and bathroom breaks. We tailor activity levels to each pet’s needs, whether that means additional walks, off-leash play, or calmer enrichment activities. Inside the home, we follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. Pets receive plenty of attention and affection. For pets that need extra care, including seniors or those with medical needs, we are experienced in monitoring behavior, administering medications, and ensuring their comfort at all times.

About: I’m home most of the day, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and playtime. I also love taking dogs out for little adventures and am happy to drive them to parks or other dog-friendly places! I’m home all day, so I can easily follow your dog’s routine. I can take them to my apartment’s dog park for potty breaks, use pee pads if needed, and take them to nearby dog parks when the weather is cooler. Dogs are also welcome on my bed. I always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure every pet feels safe and comfortable. I keep my home clean and calm, provide fresh water and plenty of attention, and supervise pets carefully, especially when introducing them to my cat or a new environment.

Best experience! We were very hesitant to leave our dog with anyone as we have never boarded him before. Although we used Rover once in a different city, with satisfactory results. Upon immediately meeting Jae Woun, we knew we made the right choice. She was so warm and friendly, immediately taking a liking to our dog, Sam. Jae Woun also sent us pictures of her apartment and outdoor space, which helped put us at ease. She sent pictures and videos daily, with updates on how Sam was doing, from his eating habits to his daily walks. Being new to LA, couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Thank you Jae Woun! Sam says Hi!

About: 한국어 편하시면 한국어로 문의주셔두되요~ What sets me apart is my ability to read and respect each dog's unique personality. As the previous owner of a Shih Tzu, I understand a pup's subtle cues, quiet boundaries, and independent nature. My partner and I will both be caring for your doggo, so there will always be someone there to keep them company, supervise them, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and care throughout their stay. My partner Tae and I both work from home with a highly flexible schedule, so pet care fits seamlessly into our day. Your doggo will enjoy constant companionship and a peaceful environment, with plenty of freedom for timely potty breaks, refreshing walks, and undivided attention whenever they need. Your doggo will NEVER be left unattended at any time during the sitting. We will both communicate with you with updates during your doggos stay with us. Safety and comfort are our top priorities. Our apartment is kept meticulously clean, safe, and hazard-free. A fantastic amenity of our building is that it is exceptionally dog-friendly, featuring a dedicated, safe walking area specifically designed for pet owners to exercise their dogs comfortably. Your pup will enjoy a clean, peaceful indoor space and structured, secure SHADED outdoor walks right on the property.

I needed a last minute pet sitter for my new puppy. I hadn’t left him alone before so I was quite nervous, but Sabrina eased any worries I might have by updating me regularly and sending me the absolute cutest videos of my baby boy playing and getting cared for. She even made sure his bed was clean since he had a little potty accident. Waylon came back home happy and worn out! I never thought my boy would be relaxed. I recommend Sabrina for detailed care for your furry babies ❤️ thank you and will be back again

About: I absolutely love animals and truly enjoy taking care of them. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and have welcomed pets into my home for boarding. I have my own Bichon Frise, a very sweet, friendly and neutered boy who loves other animals. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, giving them lots of attention and making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I always treat every pet as if they were my own. I am responsible, patient and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routine I work part-time as a makeup artist and model, but most of the time I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I usually take my dog for a walk around 8 AM, again around 1 PM, and once more in the evening before bedtime. I love spending time with pets throughout the day, playing with them, giving them attention, and keeping them company. When I’m home, your pet will have plenty of care, companionship and supervision. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking and sleeping routine. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable and at home while staying with me. I have my own friendly Bichon Frise, and he is neutered and very gentle with other animals. I always supervise pets, keep the home clean and make sure they have fresh water, food and a comfortable place to rest. I’m happy to follow any special instructions and keep you updated with photos and messages during your pet’s stay.

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life 🐾❤️ I’ve had my red-eared slider turtle for 16 years, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve also cared for dogs for friends and family, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping them comfortable and happy while their owners are away. Located in South Park, I’m comfortable caring for animals with different personalities and needs, and I believe good pet care means paying attention to the individual animal rather than treating every pet the same. On walks, for example, some dogs want to run and explore while others would rather stop every few feet to sniff everything, and I’m happy to let them set the pace. 🐕🌳 I’m also certified in Animal First Aid and Animal CPR because your pet’s safety is extremely important to me. ❤️ I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, sitting, boarding, and other care based on what you and your pet need. My goal is for every animal I care for to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and genuinely cared for, not just watched. 🐾 I’m currently working remotely on a consulting project, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! 🐾💻 For the next several months, I’ll be working from home most days, which makes me especially available for boarding, sitting, drop-in visits, and other daytime care. I’m also available for walks and care on weekends. My goal is to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. ❤️🐶🐱 Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. ❤️🐾 I’m Animal First Aid and Animal CPR certified, and I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pet very seriously. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet’s routine is respected. I’m especially attentive to each animal’s individual personality, energy level, boundaries, and needs. Whether your pet wants to run and play, take a long walk, stop and sniff every few seconds, or simply relax and receive some attention, I’ll meet them where they are. 🐶🐱 For boarding and sitting, I’m able to provide attentive care while working remotely, so your pet won’t simply be left alone for long periods. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and at home. 🏡❤️

This was my first time using Rover and also my foster dog Flash was a rescue dog that I saved from euthanasia by fostering him, but Jade was able to accommodate him and have him comfortable around her and other dogs. Jade sends me just enough updates and as time progressed I knew my dog was in good hands and knew he was doing well and well taken care of as long as he was with Jade. Jade is awesome at communicating while taking care of my dog letting me have peace of mind while I’m at work/away. I’m so lucky to have found Jade here and look forward to working with her in the future as well with Flash and another other dogs I help foster. A true lifesaver and very sweet and kind!!!!

Jae Woun was very detailed and update us with our dog Mia very often during her doggy day care. She was very gentle with our fur baby. Our dog does not warm up to strangers quickly but with Jae Woun, she gained her trust within a short period of time and even allowed her to give her belly rubs. Before our appointment, Jae Woun was very transparent with her schedule as she might have meetings and was able to be flexible to work with us. We would definitely book her again for future petsit.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Vernon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Vernon on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 8,472 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Vernon. 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 Vernon 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 8,472 sitters in Vernon, 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.
