“Stacey was great with Poley! She sent me photos during the day and shared little moments with me, which I really appreciated. Poley came back happy and tired from playing. Will definitely bring him back. Highly recommend!”
“We have used Renz several different times and he’s always been great! Pepper loves he and his partner and their sweeeeet dog, Whiskey. Renz is very easy to coordinate with, follows all my instructions, troubleshoots intelligently, is skilled in obedience training, and seems to really enjoy learning Pepper’s needs. He has access to a variety of dog parks and trails, including agility structures, so I know Pepper is always going to have fun and be stimulated. Highly recommend!”

Patrina took great care of our dog and cat for 4 days. She followed our instructions and provided thoughtful daily updates and photos of our dog's adventures to the park. I've known Patrina for a long time, and she is very trustworthy. I felt comfortable with leaving my house key with her.
My golden has really enjoyed day care thus far. He gets to go on a nice walk, play fetch, play with the hose, and get lots of attention and pets. I also get lots of pictures throughout the day which always makes me happy. Would recommend. I can tell he really enjoys going to day care here!
We thank Renz for his meticulous care for our puppy.We had booked for a concert few months back and got our puppy Forrest few weeks back to our home, Renz came up with helping hands and great experience for Forrest. In few hours, Forrest got attached to him and felt very comfortable and happy. Thank you Renz for the great care and experience.
Tillana is clearly very passionate about animals and I love that she really took the time to read my notes and prepare for our pup’s stay, considering their individual personalities. She sent so many cute pictures of them and they were good tired pups when they came home!
Mara was amazing! We were traveling for a wedding, and our dog who is typically great being left alone was barking in the hotel. We found Mara and asked if she could care for our dog for 6 hours while we were at the wedding. The wedding ending up getting delayed and the transport back was an hour + late, and Mara was understanding, kind, and relaxed. We had a stress free evening, as she sent photos of our dog being fed, walked, going to the bathroom, and resting. She was patient and understanding and kind. We would highly recommend!
I felt very good leaving Kody in Yi and her husband’s warm and capable care. My anxious pup was quickly put at ease and settled in. Yi sent lots of photo updates and Kody seemed to be having a great time - playing, getting belly rubs, going on multiple walks, etc. I would not hesitate to recommend Yi.

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 West Menlo Park 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.

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.
