“She is such a great person inside and out! Did a doggy date care to have my puppy aquatinted with her kids and other dogs she was boarding and everything went well! She even gave my puppy a bath. I was very comfortable and satisfied to know my dog was and is in good hands! Highly recommend!!!”
“Amazing care for my Butters. I was completely comfortable leaving him in Danny’s care. Daily pictures and a lot of space for Butters to run around. Will be coming back to Danny for future service! 5/5 Recommended!”
“Amy was absolutely wonderful with my puppy, Bambi! She was extremely flexible with my schedule, had excellent communication throughout the day, and made me feel completely at ease while I was at work. It means so much to know my fur baby was in such caring hands. Thank you so much, Amy, for taking such great care of Bambi. I will definitely be using you again!”
About: Hi! I’m a Veterinary student with experience in animal behavior, dog training, pet handling, and more. I’m passionate about providing a safe, loving, and stress free environment for pets in my home. My veterinary education helps me recognize health concerns, understand animal body language, and ensure every pet receives attentive, knowledgeable care. I will care for your pets with all the love in my heart, treating them as if they were my own and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved throughout their stay. 🐾❤️ As a Veterinary student, pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I am available to care for pets during both weekdays and weekends, and I can provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a secure apartment building with controlled access and a safe environment. There are several nearby parks and walking areas where your pet can enjoy regular exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. I typically accept only one pet (or pets from the same family) at a time. I do not board pets from different households together, which helps prevent conflicts, anxiety, and unnecessary stress. This allows me to give each pet my full attention and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay.
“Iman is the absolute best. She has really been a blessing to Gigi and I, there aren’t enough good things to say about her, and I always see that my Gigi is well taken care of when I arrive to pick her up. Thank you Iman, 😊❤️”
“Great experience with Ethel. We came in from out of town to watch a Red Stars game and she took care of our bernedoodle, Frankie. Ethel’s place is a very short way from SeatGeek Stadium and Frankie came back to us happy.”
“My dog loves Raymond and his wife Monica! They send great pictures of her while she's there; she's happy to go in and tired (in a good way) when we pick her up.”
“Jim was great, the dogs ran right in his house and started inspecting. Kinda like when you think your kid is going to want to stay with you on the first day of preschool and they run in without looking back. Jim will definitely be first choice going forward.”
About: I’m a dog lover! I’d love to spend time with your pup and take him/her on walks! I have a little morkie named Seamus and he loves dogs too! I have a little morkie who I take care of every single day! We take long walks, lots of play time, and a HUGE focus on his nutrition. It’s a passion and a hobby for me. We have a big fenced in yard and a friendly little morkie named Seamus! Our house is puppy proof, creating a very safe and calming environment for all.
“Janet was very pleasant and my dog got along good with her fur babies. There is confront in knowing your dog is being cared for properly. I will definitely be calling on Janet again. Peanut Butter and I Thank you”
“Skyler had a wonderful stay with Lina and didn’t want to leave! Lina was very accommodating, especially with our last-minute booking. We’d definitely book with her again in the future. Thanks again!”
“Barb is very nice person!! She watched my dog last minute and was awesome! He seemed to have a good time at her house playing with her pups. She sent over pics and videos thru the day. When he left she even gave him a gift with a toy inside which was extremely thoughtful of her. We will definitely be using her again.”
About: Animals are freakin awesome and I love them! I've had snails, a bird, frogs, co-owned cats (one at a time), as well as cat sit. I grew up with a dog, and spent 15+years with my beloved baby Shiba Inu Kenji. He had one eye, lots of arthritis, kidney issues, and half his teeth in the end but was full of life! Very familiar with meds and schedules and special needs, natural food etc. Not ready for another and didn't know much about this service. I wish l'd have known, so let me help YOU! (Note- i cannot take dogs over 60lbs, check box options are limited. Thanks for understanding) I work from home so can be available for full days, or as needed. Weekends I may have some things to do but will prioritize where needed. I do not have a crate, but you can provide. Otherwise I have bowls and beds and cones of shame as well as soft flower cone where needed. I also have gates and a pen, and multiple doors. I treat my animals (mine or family friends) like a kid. Safety always, lots of love, and a fun time!
About: My wife and I have had dogs for over 25 years, we would love the chance to take in your pup while you're away. Be careful they might come home spoiled. I am able to give injections if needed, have experience with senior dogs. I am retired and able to take care of your dog 24/7. My wife is home by early afternoon and home on weekends, to also help with your dog's needs. I have a big fenced in backyard and a dog of my own for your pup to play with, he's about 50lbs. and loves to play ball.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Alsip on Rover is $27.75 per day (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 3,530 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Alsip. 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 Alsip 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 IL 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 3,530 sitters in Alsip, 86% 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.
