“My dog and I are so thrilled to have found Lauren & Hunter!! Lauren has been extraordinarily kind and communicative ever since the initial booking this past weekend to the conclusion of the doggie daycare experience tonight, and I so appreciate it! She sent me tons of photos and updates throughout the day which was awesome, and I could tell my little guy was in great hands with her and her family! I would absolutely love to work with Lauren & Hunter again, and would certainly recommend them to anyone else!! Thanks again :)”
About: I have cared for animals my whole life. I've taken care of them when abandoned by the mother, sick, or disabled. I have experience doing basic training. My own pets pile on me the second I sit down. I've never had a pet pass the rainbow bridge before the age of ten. I love animals so much and I will love yours too! **** I like to send many pictures and updates. Please do not feel obligated to reply to each one. Dont worry, I know you are busy**** Taking care of animals is all I want to do. I am a stay-at-home mom and my youngest is 16. I have plenty of time on my hands and love. I have fully fenced yard in a safe neighborhood. I have a pug of my own who doesn't mind other animals. I usually keep him in the bedroom for the first couple hours. I have two inside/outside cats who are also very friendly to people and animals. If I am sitting cats and dogs together, I will usually keep the two separate. Cats upstairs and dogs downstairs. Don't worry about attention. There is plenty to go around! If I'm caring for your babies at your house, I will follow the rules you provide.
About: Growing up in a family-owned animal hospital, I developed a strong passion for animal care from an early age and gained hands-on experience working with a wide variety of species. I have personally cared for four dogs and a rabbit, giving me a deep understanding of daily pet care, responsibility, and animal behavior. In addition to personal experience, I worked as a Veterinary Assistant at an animal hospital and shelter throughout my senior year of high school and during my freshman and sophomore years of college. In this role, I assisted with patient care, monitored animals, maintained clean and safe environments, and supported veterinarians and staff with daily operations. I also volunteer at a horse ranch during my free time, where I assist with animal care and ranch responsibilities. My background has allowed me to become comfortable working with animals of all sizes and temperaments while developing strong compassion, communication, and caregiving skills. currently work from home, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and dedicate plenty of time to animal care and attention throughout the day. Pet care is naturally built into my daily routine, and I enjoy maintaining a structured schedule to ensure animals receive consistent care, exercise, and companionship. I have four personal dogs and regularly spend time finding new walking trails, parks, and outdoor areas to take my pack on adventures and exercise outings. Staying active with my dogs is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for pets, whether in my own home or in a client’s home. Growing up in a family-owned animal hospital and working as a Veterinary Assistant taught me how to properly handle animals, recognize behavioral changes, and maintain clean, safe, and stress-free environments for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I am very organized and dependable, so I like to keep pets on their normal routines as much as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, playtime, and rest. I also make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. Because I work from home, I have a flexible schedule and am able to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and care. I have four dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, safety, and treating every animal like family. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks and exploring new trails and outdoor spaces to keep them active and engaged. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, carefully follow all instructions, and prioritize communication by providing updates and photos so owners feel comfortable and informed while they are away.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds since I could walk. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, play, and take care of their pets. I love snuggles and playtime! I currently work from home and have free time to take care of any needs of your pets! I am active and love taking them for walks and playtime. I have a yard and two sweet pups to keep your pets company. I have a separate spare bedroom that your pet can stay in if they need space from other animals.
About: Hi! I’m Taylor, and I have extensive experience working with animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, and large animals. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science from North Carolina State Universith and recently completed my Master’s in Veterinary Medical Sciences with a concentration in Shelter Animal Medicine through the University of Florida. I also have professional veterinary hospital experience and am currently preparing to begin veterinary school at Tuskegee University College of Veterinary Medicine. I’ve worked in veterinary clinics for several years and am comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and medical needs. I have experience administering medications and injections, monitoring post-surgical or senior pets, handling anxious animals, and recognizing when something may be medically concerning. I also have experience with puppy care/training and senior pet care, so I’m happy to accommodate different energy levels and routines. My goal is always to make your pets feel as comfortable and safe as possible while you’re away. I try to keep them on their normal routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddle time, medication schedules, or just having someone patient and attentive around. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. For boarding: I currently live in a pet-friendly home environment and can accommodate different needs depending on your pet’s personality and comfort level. If your pet uses a crate/kennel, you’re welcome to bring it so they have something familiar from home. Safety is extremely important to me, and all outdoor time is supervised and leashed unless otherwise discussed. I’m very comfortable with pets that require extra care, including medications, injections, special feeding instructions, or senior accommodations. Please let me know about any medical conditions, behavioral concerns, fears, or routines ahead of time so I can make their stay as stress-free as possible. :) Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because caring for animals is already a huge part of my daily life. I have several years of veterinary hospital experience and recently completed my Master’s in Veterinary Medical Sciences with a concentration in Shelter Animal Medicine through the University of Florida online while working full time. I’m also preparing to begin veterinary school at Tuskegee University College of Veterinary Medicine. Because of my background, I’m very comfortable handling pets with different personalities, energy levels, and medical needs. Outside of my regular responsibilities, I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means walks, playtime, cuddle time, enrichment activities, or helping maintain their normal routines while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I work hard to create a calm, low-stress environment and to keep pets on routines that feel familiar to them. I’m experienced with a wide range of temperaments and medical needs, including senior pets, anxious pets, and pets requiring medications or injections. For boarding, pets are always supervised and outdoor time is safely managed on leash unless otherwise discussed. If your pet is crate-trained, you’re welcome to bring their crate or favorite items from home to help them feel more comfortable and secure during their stay. I believe communication is extremely important, so I always try to keep owners updated and make sure everyone feels confident and comfortable throughout the visit.

About: I’m a life long animal lover and have had the opportunity to care for my friends, family, and neighbor’s pets for years whether it was daily check-ins or caring for them while owners were away. I personally can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t have a pet of my own and would love the opportunity to care for yours. I currently work from home with the flexibility for long walks, play time, and lots of cuddles. There really isn’t a day or time I couldn’t be available. I have a fenced in yard, a great neighborhood for walks, two pet loving kids and a sweet dog of my own to provide your fur baby companionship during their stay.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs in my neighborhood since I was 15. I also have experience with my 2 dogs at home, and my senior dog Reggie who is 14. I also have experience with working dogs, and more specifically the breed of German Shorthair Pointers. Now that I am in school I have two cats with me, Biscuit and Tinkerbell! They both get along well with other dogs and cats. I am in my second year of pharmacy school at Harrison College of Pharmacy at Auburn University. I have been dog sitting in Auburn for about 5 years all throughout college and pharmacy school so far. My current class schedule is: Monday 8-11 AM Tuesday 8-11 AM AND 3-5 PM Wednesday: completely free Thursday: 8 AM - 4 PM Friday: 8-11 AM I am an in my second year of pharmacy school at Auburn University. My current class schedule is listed in my profile! I also live in a neighborhood with lots of grass and sidewalks so I can easily fit walks for your pets into my schedule in the morning or evening, and would love to take them to parks as well! Dogs are welcome on any furniture and in any room in my home, and I have an extra kennel if needed for them! They will be regularly taken outside and cared for!
“This was my first time using Rover for my dog Bambi. Safe to say she had a great experience staying with Danielle and her animals. She sent us pictures and kept us updated throughout the day. Bambi was worn out and a happy pup when we picked her up! 10/10 service and recommend to anyone in the area.”

About: I have over 15 years of experience with all types of animals. I have a deep affection for animals and understand the importance of their well-being. Whether it’s a playful dog or a curious cat, I always take the time to understand their unique behaviors and needs. I am attentive and patient, ensuring they feel comfortable, loved, and secure. For pet owners, knowing that I can offer reliable care provides peace of mind—whether it’s a quick check-in, a thoughtful response to any concerns, or simply understanding how to make their pets feel at ease. My love for animals is grounded in the belief that pets deserve kindness, respect, and consistent care. I focus on building a trusting bond with each pet so they feel comfortable and safe in my presence. For pet owners, this trust is invaluable—it means you can leave home knowing that your furry friend is not just in good hands, but in the hands of someone who genuinely loves and cares for them as if they were my own. I will be taking this position fulltime ensuring exercise and playtime, feeding and medication routine, rest and comfort. Incorporating pet care into my daily and weekly routine ensures your pet receives consistent attention, love, and the appropriate level of care to keep them healthy, happy, and safe. Your pet’s well-being is always a priority, and my routine revolves around meeting their physical, emotional, and social needs. My home is pet-proofed to ensure there are no hazards, such as toxic plants, sharp objects, or unsafe areas that your pet could access. All windows and doors are securely closed or locked to prevent any escapes, and I always monitor pets closely when they’re outside to ensure they’re safely contained. Your pet will have a designated, cozy sleeping area that is safe and comfortable, whether it’s their bed, crate, or a spot they’re familiar with. I will ensure that this area is free from distractions and potential dangers, allowing them to rest peacefully and securely. I’ll keep your pet’s daily routine consistent, including feeding times, exercise, and rest. If they’re on medication or need specific care, I will ensure they receive the correct dosage at the right times. Sticking to their usual routine helps minimize stress and makes them feel more at home in my care.
“Communication was fast with Lily and she was extremely flexible with our time frame. Ollie enjoyed her day with Lily and came back happy and well cared for. We will definitely call again when we are in town! Thank you!”

About: The flea market! I’m a responsive, responsible, 30 year old mom that is happy to watch your furry friends! I have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. This job allows me to stay home with my children and not impulse buy a dog 😂 I’d be honored to have the opportunity to watch your pet for you or lend a helping hand on a busy day! I have assisted in caring for many kinds of dogs and cats since I was young. I’ve had and cared for everything from elderly micro Yorkies to large, wild Great Dane puppies! I have owned dogs and cats my entire life, as well as some smaller friends like mice, rats, snakes and hamsters. I will always do my best to make sure your pet is happy and healthy, as well as providing you with plenty of cute photos/videos of them during our time together! I am at home full time with plenty of time to shower your furry friend with love, attention and care! We will have the best time. We have a back patio for them to relax and get fresh air and sunshine and plenty of green space to go walking! I’m also happy to accommodate to your pet’s usual routine.
“Zymeria was outstanding with our 2 corgi puppies. She has such a positive demeanor and loves animals. She took our dogs on walks, fed, and played with them. We were very impressed with Zymeria and her care of Frankie and Scout. We highly recommend her and hope to utilize her exceptional services again soon.”

About: Hi! I'm Annika, I walk/jog everyday so taking your pups to exercise is a fun time for me as well as your dog. The safety, happiness and well being of your dog is my number one priority. I have experience with a wide range of ages and abilities, including puppy training and senior dog care. I currently work and go to school online, from home. That being said, I have a very open schedule and can work around your schedule as well. I try to mimic your own schedule while house sitting for your pet so the experience is as comfortable as possible. I have experience dog sitting, walking and boarding with all ages and breeds of dogs. Our home is quiet, albeit the occasional bark or play, we try to keep the stimulation low so no pets get overwhelmed.
About: I’ve had a dog my whole life, to me a home isn’t a home without one! As of right now I have three dogs, one that lives with me full time. I rescued him from a shelter and I love training him and watching him grow up. I would be a great help with training or just simply giving love and attention to your sweet pup ! I work part time at an Auburn country club with the flexibility of being able to leave in the middle of the day when needed. I am near tons of dog parks, I take my dog, Bear, everyday that it’s not raining, and he gets along great with every pet including cats. I also love to run and go on walks and wouldn’t mind having a furry companion.
About: From horses, goats, and chickens to dogs, cats, and hamsters I have taken care of or had most animals under the sun. Growing up on a farm, taking care of animals has always been something I enjoy and a number one priority in day to day life. If I can take care of something 10x my size I promise I can take good care of your fur baby. I’m currently a student at Auburn University, but don’t worry I only have one or two classes a day allowing me plenty of time at home to walk, play, or simply enjoy the company of your pet. I love being outdoors so walking and hiking are some of my favorite things. I live in a trailer with a doggy-proofed screened in porch and fenced in yard, with doggy door access to inside the house. I have a friendly border collie mix to keep your baby company who loves to play, but can be separated if needed. I can crate if wanted in my absence for classes, or allow free roam to the porch and yard.
The median cost per day for doggy day care in Auburn is $30
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Auburn
Ryan was amazing. My dog Penny is a rescue and although friendly, she needs a little extra attention sometimes. Penny had a wonderful time with Ryan and his pooches. Lots of great communication photos and videos, to keep me informed and ease my mind. I will be using Ryan in the future, and would highly recommend him, I did not spend one second worrying about Penny!

Sarah is very sweet and did a good job with my pups for a day of drop in daycare. They immediately felt comfortable with her. She gave my elder dog her pills as requested on time. I would use her again. Something to note, if she doesn't open the door immediately don't panic, she is coming, it sometimes takes her a few mins to get to the door. I got nervous at first that she wasn't home but then she showed up. Yay!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Auburn
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Auburn on Rover is $27.75 per day (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 164 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Auburn. 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 Auburn 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 AL 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. 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.
