“Thank you so much Matalyn! She was so great with our husky! She’s flexible and allowed us to drop off our dog earlier since we arrived early in the city for the royal gorge train ride.”
About: While I am new to the app, I have a vested interest in pet care. In addition to my three dogs, I have a cat and two additional dogs that live on my property. I have been breeding puppies and providing training for the last four years. Training is not exclusive to the puppies but for new owners as well. I provide information of fresh food diets in relation to overall health. I am available for leash training upon request. I currently only work two days a week, averaging less that 20 hours. I have two teenagers who are also home and available to help as needed. We have a dog door that allows the dogs free run of almost a half an acre of property. I have a fully fenced yard that keeps in two large and three small dogs with no issues. There are five dogs on the property to keep yours company. They are all up to date on their shots and and all very friendly. All five have been raised with each other, kids and 2 cats.
“Kim was able to take my last-minute booking without a problem. She didn't flinch when I described my crazy deaf Dalmatian with her high energy level and considerable high anxiety. Spice went right to Kim when we got there like she'd known her all her life, and Kim said Spice was really good during her time with her. That's unusual for Spice to be that open to new people and new situations. We appreciated the care Spice received while with Kim. We will definitely book with Kim again in the future.”
“Wonderful first sitter experience! Wendy had a wonderful time with Kiley last week. Although we don’t need a frequent sitter, we met prior and I knew Wendy would be well cared for. I received pictures and videos throughout the day. Kiley is kind and loves animals!”

“70-lb Elsie enjoyed her stay with Janae and her friendly dog. She was offered a big bed indoors (but laid next to it, as usual) and enjoyed exploring the large backyard during her stay. Pickup and Drop off were easy, and Janae responded quickly through the app - highly recommend!”
“My chihuahua mix doggies, Roscoe and Mia love Donna and she loves on them. They come home happy and content and I know they have had a great time with Donna, her dog, Opal and her husband, Dave because they come home and sleep. Also there are always lots of terrific pictures. We are thankful for Rover and Donna!”
“Such a great experience with Sarah! I was really in a bind because we wanted a few hours at the resort we paid for and most of the areas weren’t dog friendly. (It was last min decision to go there) Sarah responded immediately and she kept me updated with Shiloh throughout the day! She’s amazing and we are so pleased !”
“Very convenient location to have our doodle minded while we toured nearby Manitou, Pikes Peak and the COG railway. Rachel and Meg tag teamed to give our Ted a mix of indoors and outdoor activities. We would use them again but we 1500 miles away.”
“Im thankful for Amber’s patience with King. About 4 hours in he became anxious crying for me and she made me aware in case I wanted to get him earlier. She provided clear communication throughout and is willing to welcome him again into her home and sharing her time with him.”
About: We nicknamed our home The Dachs Inn - a weenie wonderland! We’ve cared for Dachshunds for 15 years and specialize in meeting the unique needs of this breed, including dog ramps on our furniture and deck. Our home features a dog door with all-day access to a giant backyard for potty breaks, play time, sunbathing and squirrels!!! Plush dog beds are placed through the home and a giant sectional provides the perfect spot for cuddle time. Daily walks are provided, we even have a dog stroller for senior dogs or those dachshunds suffering from IVDD. I work remotely from home full time and, along with my retired husband, provide hourly drop-in care, play dates, overnight and extended boarding in our home. Additionally, I provide home visits and walking services to families located on the west side of Colorado Springs. Other locations throughout Colorado are considered on case-by-case request for extended care in your home (5 or more days). I have three dachshunds, ages 15, 10, and under 1 year. My dog-friendly home has a fenced back yard, we feed all visiting dogs separately, and can provide daily pictures of your baby’s activities. I can also provide regular weigh-ins, medications, and teeth brushing. I am very active and love going on long walks/hikes (up to three miles) upon request. While I prefer to host only smaller dogs in our home, I am open to all breeds for care at your home - including drop-ins, walks, and house sitting. I kindly ask that all dogs are current on all vaccinations, including kennel cough. For medical emergencies, we are established at Westside Animal Hospital, The Animal Clinic of Woodland Park, and the Emergency Pet Center.
About: I would love to care for your pets. I offer a friendly,safe, and loving home. I will play with and give plenty of love and attention. I'm retired so I have plenty time to care for your babies. Any day of the week. Overnights or only daycare. My home or yours. At this time I don't have a pet. I lost my dog a while back. I don't have a fenced yard. I do have a large gated deck where your pet can go out and relax.
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life and have had many different pets from childhood into adulthood. I have been a trusted house and pet sitter for over 10 years. I live an active lifestyle and love to take runs/walks (your dogs can join me)! I work part-time from home, with a very flexible schedule, so I can make just about any time work for the care of your fur baby! I will be able to let your pet out as much as needed and will be sure to make them a priority! I live on Fort Carson with a fenced yard (with grass!!!!) and pet friendly home. The area is very walkable! I will ensure that your pet is in a safe environment. I like to stick to the animal's routine as much as possible, hang out with them, and make sure they get as much exercise as they need. I have one dog - a labradoodle who is fixed and very friendly - he would love to play with your dogs too!
“Erica & her family took excellent care of Chip while we visited the zoo! So thankful to have a fun play spot for him to hang out for a few hours! Highly recommend!”
“Heather took such good care of my baby! Her dog Gauge was the perfect playmate for him too. My dog can be anxious but she made him feel very comfortable. She took him on walks, played fetch, and sent lots of pictures so I didn’t have to worry at all! I’d highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Absolutely amazing couple! I had someone ghost my dogs at the last minute. But they answered and were totally understanding about it being last. They were super friendly! Even my one girl dog who is hesitant about men gave Anderw lots of kisses like she knew him!! I’m very happy with getting to meet them and we will definitely be booking with them in the future! Doba and Addie will love to see you guys again! Thank you so much!!!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Adelaide
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 432 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Adelaide. 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 Adelaide 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 CO 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 432 sitters in Adelaide, 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.
