DogVacay

DogVacay was a consumer marketplace for dog boarding, pet sitting, dog walking, and doggy daycare that connected pet owners with a network of vetted, background-checked pet sitters and hosts across the United States and Canada. Founded in 2012 and backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), the company was acquired by and merged into Rover in 2017; the DogVacay brand has since been retired and dogvacay.com now redirects to Rover. No public developer API, developer portal, or API documentation was ever published, so this profile carries company identity only and no API artifacts.

DogVacay is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Pet Care, Marketplace, Dog Boarding, and Pet Sitting.
