About: I live in the Sacramento Delta in a quiet neighborhood. Great neighborhood for walks and a nice fenced corner lot yard for your pup to run around in. I live with my elderly father who enjoys meeting new doggy friends. 24 hr supervision since I work remotely! I’m an early riser and enjoy morning walks. Your doggy will recieve a good amount of outdoor time and have an active and stimulating day. I’m comfortable with your dog sleeping in bed with me but respect if you prefer them to sleep in a crate. I work remotely so I have no issue staying at your house as well!
“Dobi had a good day and Brianna sent multiple pics throughout the day. I didn't get any updates about his nap time or eating. Brianna did accept us last minute so she is very accommodating. Will definitely try her services again and highly recommend to others.”
“Thank you Denise for taking care of Zoey! I appreciate all the updates and photos! Zoey definitely had a fun time, and she didn't want to leave! I can't thank you enough for doggy-sitting!”
“Cynthia is such a caring and hospitable sitter. Our pup, Autumn, is a member of our family and we feel very much at ease knowing that she is well taken care of at Cynthia's home. Cynthia's sweet dogs get along with Autumn well and she really enjoys her time with them. Thank you Cynthia!”
“Rekha is very caring and made me feel comfortable leaving my puppy in her care. He is usually timid; however, he took an immediate liking to her. She took him for a walk and gave him lots of attention. I will definitely rebook her again!”

“Wow !!!! If you are like me about your fur baby, you are very protective and have high expectations. Rashea definitely exceeded all of my needs and wants. My baby stayed with her during the day while, I was in the area for business for a week. I had no worries at all. *Rashea has a warm welcoming spirit. You will feel it and so will your fur baby. *She customizes your baby stay to meet their needs *Her home is inviting and EXTREMELY clean (super important to me) *She kept me up to date on what Taylor was doing and sent pics. Book her, you won’t be disappointed :)”
“Wendy was so kind with my baby and helped make sure he adjusted well. She showed so much care and my baby came back as happy as can be. She was also so understanding when we needed to switch our pick up and drop off times. Thank you so much Wendy. Would definitely book again!”
About: With over 40 years of experience caring for animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am experienced with puppies, senior pets, medications, basic first aid, and I pride myself on being dependable, loving, patient, and attentive. My home offers a fully fenced yard, locked gate, covered patio, and dog door access for a safe and comfortable stay. Whether your pet needs a walk, drop-in visit, daycare, or overnight care, they’ll be loved, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I walk every morning. I work from home during the week, taking breaks throughout the day. Thankfully my schedule is flexible and many times I like to add in an evening walk as well, weather permitting. Whether in my home or yours, I care for every pet as if they were my own. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment while carefully following routines, special instructions, and care needs. My goal is for every pet to feel comfortable and secure, and for every owner to have peace of mind knowing their pet is in trusted hands.
About: Hi! I have 5 years of experience walking dogs of all sizes, especially small and medium breeds. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority, and I make sure every walk is both fun and secure. I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to easily incorporate pet care throughout my day. I’m able to take dogs out for walks, provide regular potty breaks, feed them on time, and give them attention and play as needed. Because I’m home most of the day, I can closely monitor their safety, comfort, and overall well-being, making sure they get consistent care and companionship. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable at all times, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any specific care instructions. I keep spaces clean, remove any potential hazards, and provide a safe, stress-free environment. I also give regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for.

She is really awesome because she is very communicative, send me plenty of photos to help ease my stress of being away from my fur baby, clean environment, extremely friendly and highly organized, she loves to train too! I already sent another request for Max tomorrow. I highly recommend her, I can tell that she is genuine and truly loves working with pets.”

I really appreciate the effort made to make him comfortable, especially around other dogs and when he wasn’t eating. Absolutely wonderful people!”
“Deb and JC are amazing! Pip had a fantastic time during day boarding—he was happy, well cared for, and came home content and tired. They kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. Their love for dogs really shows. Highly recommend!”

“June is the best! Bella spent the day with June and her dog Ceaser. Bella is a special needs dog and June knew just how to work with her to make her feel comfortable. June made sure to keep me posted and updated on Bella throughout her stay. She sent lots of pictures so I could see how she was doing. Her dog Ceaser was great with Bella too. Bella has become very attached to June. She also loves Ceaser, her new gentle giant friend. I strongly recommend June if you’re looking for a very responsible caring sitter for your pup. I know Bella is in good hands with June, and will be using her as our sitter in the future.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Walnut Grove
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,354 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Walnut Grove. 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 Walnut Grove 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 1,354 sitters in Walnut Grove, 88% 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.
