About: I've taken care of dogs (of various breeds) since I was in middle school. I have done short-term and long-term care both out of my house or going over to the owner's house. I am a very calm and reassuring person and have worked with both young and elder dogs. I am a recent graduate who is currently applying to post-graduate programs and jobs, so I have great flexibility in my schedule when I am not helping my grandmother with errands or volunteering at Greendale Elementary (on Tuesday and Thursday mornings). I can do any weekday besides Wednesday afternoons. I can do most times on the weekends unless I have a prior engagement planned. I can do Christmas/Winter Break, but I will be away for Thanksgiving this year. I have a fenced-in yard and have plenty of room for housing your pet as there are no other pets in the house currently. The neighborhood is very safe and has walking paths for walking pets. I am also happy to drop in or stay at your home if that is more comfortable for your pet (or you)!

Ms Kim always takes excellent care of my girls. They are puppies, with lots of energy and my schedule is not always reliable to be the same. She is great to work with and provides open communication about the status of my fur babies. Peanut and Dot love daycare days! 🐾

Cassie is absolutely wonderful. She has a calm spirit and was great with my puppy. She's excited to see Cassie everytime we visit. I got pictures, video and even a little training for my puppy. If you're looking for someone professional and who will take great care of you dog, Cassie should be your first choice.

Terry is very responsive. We utilized her for drop in doggy day care while we were in Augusta visiting our son. Terry was so good with our puppy. The puppy had to much fun running around with her new doggy friend and was absolutely exhausted by pick up time. Terry sent picture updates half way thru the day and was amazing to work with. If we come back down we would definitely use her services again

My dog loves this woman. She did a few drop-in visits for us prior to in-home daycare. We pulled up to her home and, when she saw Chelsey, my timid pup went trotting into Chelsey’s house like she forgot I existed (she was excited to see me at pickup, so no hard feelings lol). Have already booked her again!

About: I've had dogs of all sizes and ages since childhood. My husband faithfully walks the dogs at least once a day. We have two small dogs who love to play and run. We would love to have your dogs here with us well-taken care of while you are away! Tessa is a stay-at-home mom who occasionally babysits or subs at school. If we accept your reservation, she will be here at home to take care of the dogs as needed. We have a fully fenced yard. We usually leave our doggie window open except in extreme weather, so your dog can go in and out as desired. We have a dachshund mix and a shiz tsu/ poodle who would love to keep your dog company

Geraldine and her husband has been amazing with our Nui boy! They have been amazing in watching, caring and loving him while we went on our family trip to Hilo. She kept us up to date on how he was doing every day and took lots of pictures of him which made us so happy that he was enjoying himself. She is great with Nui as he is very anxious and it was his very first time away from us at all. She’s amazing and so much so that we asked for her to watch him for the day so that we could enjoy celebrating a birthday without having to worry about him. We appreciate Geraldine and her hubby for all that they do and we definitely recommend her to everyone! We will definitely keep her in mind should we need services again. Grateful and thankful for the aloha she shares with our Nui boy. Mahalo Nui loa!

About: I have always had a passion for loving and caring for animals. I am working on a change of career and want to earn extra income and hope to slowly transition to being able to do more through Rover. I have grown up with animals and have cared for everything from a duck to a horse. My grandparents owned a farm and I took care of and trained the horses and also caref for the dog and cats on the farm. I also have fostered through the Humane Society to help dogs and cats find their furever home. I can't wait to get to know your fur baby and help you with their care and everyday life. I love walking around at parks and certain trails. I can stay in the neighborhood, as well, if preferred. Let me know if they have a favorite treat or particular way they like to walk or play. I am a stay at home mom to a 3 year old who loves all animals. This will give her the opportunity to socialize with more animals. This will also provide more opportunities to teach her responsibility through watching how I care for animals. I usually check the pets water and food, if asked. I give medicine the ones who need it. For dogs, I usually include a short walk so they can potty or let them out into their yard. For cats, I’ll try to engage in play for a little bit so they can get some exercise in, as well.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, playtime, or a calm and attentive sitter while you're away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. **I also offer yard freedom for all my furry friends, as our home sits on .25 acres of fenced in yard, a sought after haven for those high energy babies who love to get their zoomies in!** I understand that every dog is unique, so I always take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and energy levels. From energetic walks and games to relaxed companionship, I tailor my care to what your dog needs most. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your furry friend is doing. I treat every dog like they’re my own and work hard to build trust with both pets and their owners. I’d love the chance to meet you and your dog and help make their days happier while you’re busy or away! I am a SAHM, so caring for dogs and cats can easily be built into my schedule! My little one loves animals, so taking him along or introducing him to someone new is always exciting, he also enjoys playing with them! We do love backpacking on trails, so there is no limit to the care and fun I can provide. I provide safe, attentive, and loving care whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home. Since I have animals of my own, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and I treat every animal like part of the family. For **boarding in my home**, I create a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax, play, and follow a routine similar to what they’re used to. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, and a safe space to rest. For **house sitting in a client’s home**, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I also help keep the home tidy and make sure pets feel secure while their owner is away. For **dog walking**, I make sure each walk is safe, fun, and suited to the dog’s energy level. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk or a slower sniff-and-explore pace, I tailor the walk to their needs. For **drop-in visits**, I stop by to feed pets, refresh water, clean litter boxes or potty areas, provide playtime, and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. No matter the service, I always prioritize safety, clear communication, and keeping owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.

Amazing, amazing. Brandi sends photos and videos throughout the day. Hershey is always enjoying his time playing with toys, playing outside with his new furry friends, and enjoying sweet naptimes after he’s all tuckered out. Will continue to use Brandi for future pup day care.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Aiken

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Aiken on Rover is $37.45 per day (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 154 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Aiken. 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 Aiken 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 SC 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 154 sitters in Aiken, 93% 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.
