“I truly recommend Dan. This is my first time using Rover and naturally wanting the best for my dog, I wanted to make sure she’d be good, and Dan made sure of that. She always checked in with me, provided me updates of Daisy through pictures and videos, and always responds when she can.”
“Emily was phenomenal with Chloe !! She made me feel so comfortable with leaving her and sent me photos throughout the day. Overall wonderful experience!! Can’t wait to book again”
“Outstanding daycare experience and Peachy was a great host too . They were very sensitive to Charlie who has some anxiety and made her feel very comfortable and she felt right at home once she warmed up. They gave an immediate update at her first visit, which was very comforting. They were also very honest and kind , sent photos and followed all instructions. I highly recommend. My pug came home smiling and she’s looking forward to her next slumber party there☺️”
“Julia was great! We left our puppy Sonny with her one afternoon until the afternoon the next day and she kept sending us updates and pictures of him having fun. This made us feel so good knowing that she was taking the best care of him and that he was happy. We would definitely recommend and use Julia again.”
“Ilona is like my angel fallen from the sky. I booked her services with just a 48hour notice. I contacted her on a Saturday to see if she could take care of my miniature Schnauzer for Monday. She didn't hesitate on telling me we could meet and greet on that same day, so we did. Literally she has like and Angel fallen from the sky! I was desperately looking for a person who could take care of Pelusa, since my dog recently was diagnosed with a Brain tumor and Pancreatitis, and was given radiation treatment, so I didn't want to leave her alone at home for the first week. She understiid Pelusa's needs perfectly. Not only I felt that Pelusa was comfortable there, but the fact that she loves animals as much as she does gave me trust to leave Pelusa in such great hands. She took a lot of pictures and sent me constant updates about Pelusa, and gave her the medicine she needed at the exact time every day. By the third day Pelusa seemed so sad to Leave Ilona's house that I felt even more happy of my decision. ILona, her husband, her kids, dogs and Cats are the greatest. I value her love for animals and the fact that she is so committed to making feel my dog like at home. Trustworthy, Passionate and Committed, could ask for more! 100% recommended!”
“I’m so happy I found Nari and Ryan. They cared for my Chester as if he were their own dog. I felt so comfortable leaving him with their family. He slept like a baby because they gave him good walks. He also was so happy to return the next day, wagging his tail and running to their door for day 2. They are the best!”
“Athena was amazing and so reliable. I booked super last minute and she was extremely accommodating, fast responding, and kept me updated with pictures throughout Ozzy’s stay which gave me so much peace of mind. She even fed him homemade food and treats and truly cared for him like her own. I was completely at ease during my trip knowing Ozzy was in such good hands. I will 10000% be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring 🤍”
“She sent me lots of photos, so I felt reassured. She’s professional and clearly loves and cares about dogs. I will definitely rebook her when i need daycare of my dog!”
“My maltipoo had a great time with Nicole and was well taken care of! She’s very nice, responsive over messaging, and attentive to instructions. Appreciate having Nicole watch my pup!”
About: For the past 4 years, I have volunteered at an animal shelter where I worked with both dogs and cats. With dogs, I have experience with all ages, ranging from 5 week old puppies to senior dogs. I have walked and played with dogs who were the most outgoing and loving dogs, as well as the more fearful ones who needed a little extra attention before opening up to me. I have received training in understanding dog behaviors as well as how to interact with more stressed and fearful dogs, leaving me confident to care for all types of dogs. I also volunteered to take some dogs out of the shelter for one night and care for them at my apartment so they can destress out of their kennels, which gave me experience house sitting multiple types of dogs. With cats, often times at the shelter I would play with them in their cages, or I would take them out the cage and hold onto/pet them to help relieve their stress and get them accustomed to humans. At home I also have 2 senior pets I care for, a 12 year old Brittany dog and an 11 year old cat. They’re both incredibly sweet and remind me every day why I love caring for animals. Let me help take care of your furry family members—I’d love to meet them! I work as a teacher full time during the school year, so I have time after 4pm to care for your pets. However, during the summer I don't work full time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am free anytime during the week for house sitting, dog walking, or just dropping in to visit your pet. When caring for a pet in a client's home, I will make sure to confirm all household rules that apply to their pet before starting. This includes knowing what furniture the pet can sit on, the diet of the pet, as well as how often the pet should be played with/taken out on walks.
About: I have my own cats when I was teenage. I love cats and would like to stay with them. I will be stay at home all day I would like to walk dogs outside early in the morning, feed them, and play with them during the noon and afternoon at our fenced yard. I prefer to know each pet’s own characteristics, and take care them per owner’s special instruction. We can make fresh food for them as owner’s instruction, and I will spend all my day time accompany with them. I have a fenced yard, it’s very safe place to stay and play if they like to play outside. Our door is locked all the time.
“Wendy and her husband took great care of my dog and sent me updates during the day. Zoe can be shy and sensitive at first with new people, but she warmed up to them so quickly! Their dog Hero is so cute and playful as well. I would recommend her, and Zoe looks forward to her next daycare there!”
“Juliana was able to accommodate a last minute sitting request for my two senior dogs. She was extremely responsive, caring and provided updates throughout the day. Our dogs are elderly, shy and need frequent walks and she took care of them as if they were her own. Highly recommend!”
About: Most notably, I have worked for Dan's Pet Care as a dog walker in Manhasset for 6 months. I would walk dogs, sometimes feed them, give them water, give them medication, pick up and drop them off to and from the petcare center if asked to. To put it shortly, I have lots of experience with new dogs. I also used to work at The Allypond Environmental Center, along with owning pets throughout my life and still do to this day such as dogs, cats, birds, fish, and guinea pigs. I've also taken care of my and other family members dogs some who have had casts on a leg. I'm used to taking care of my pet bird everyday along with helping the stray cat who we have fed for months now, all the dogs I've ever owned sadly passed away but I've always took care of them. I have a secure home and a fenced yard with plenty of space, on top of that my neighborhood is fairly quiet with 3 nice parks nearby for good long walks.
About: I’ve cared for pets since childhood and currently work in a veterinary office with 3 years of hands-on experience. I provide reliable care for cats, dogs, and birds. Feel free to inquire! Pet care is a consistent part of my daily and weekly routine. I work at a veterinary office Monday through Saturday, which allows me to bring professional experience and a strong understanding of animal health into my care routine. I manage boarding, visits, and pet care around my work schedule to ensure each pet receives proper attention. Dog walking and drop-in visits are typically scheduled before and after office hours. Boarding pick-ups and drop-offs are flexible within reason on those days, and Sunday pick-up or drop-off is available upon inquiry. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets in my care receive reliable, attentive, and consistent care every day. I can also set up Vet visits within my office upon inquiry! In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and structured boarding environment tailored to each pet’s needs. For dogs, I have 3–4 spacious enclosures measuring approximately 5ft x 5ft with tall height, allowing plenty of room to move comfortably, rest, and feel secure. Dogs are let out regularly for exercise, potty breaks, and supervised interaction, depending on their temperament and owner preferences. For cats, I have separate, smaller enclosures in a variety of sizes to ensure they feel calm and stress-free. Cats are kept in a quiet area away from dogs, with clean litter boxes, fresh water, and enrichment as needed. I follow each pet owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. Cleanliness, safety, and comfort are always a priority, and I monitor pets throughout the day to ensure they are happy and healthy.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bayside
Nataly has been watching our sweet Barkley for the past several years. He was 16, and she was so sweet with him and watched over him, when he suddenly passed yesterday. We will be forever grateful for all you have done for him. I will be leaving River after this post, but wanted let as many people know just how special Nataly is as a person, a dog-lover, and second mom to Barkley.
I truly recommend Dan. This is my first time using Rover and naturally wanting the best for my dog, I wanted to make sure she’d be good, and Dan made sure of that. She always checked in with me, provided me updates of Daisy through pictures and videos, and always responds when she can.
Wendy and her husband took great care of my dog and sent me updates during the day. Zoe can be shy and sensitive at first with new people, but she warmed up to them so quickly! Their dog Hero is so cute and playful as well. I would recommend her, and Zoe looks forward to her next daycare there!
We had an amazing experience with Nari & Ryan and couldn’t be more grateful! They were incredibly accommodating and helped us out on very short notice when we needed last minute doggy daycare. They came highly recommended by our friends, and they absolutely lived up to the praise. Nari was so sweet, responsive, and communicative throughout the day. She kept us updated with plenty of photos and videos of our dog, Frankie, which gave us a peace of mind. Frankie was walked multiple times, and we especially loved seeing how gentle and caring Nari’s daughter was with him! It really added a personal, family oriented touch to the experience. When Frankie came home, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and kind dog sitters!
Ellison did an outstanding job walking my dog, Mr. President, and accommodating multiple needs on very short notice. From the very beginning, she took the time to come over and walk with me so she could fully understand his routine, temperament, and walking process. That extra effort made the transition seamless when I left her fully in control and responsible for his care. She handled everything with calm confidence and professionalism, and I felt completely comfortable trusting her. Communication was excellent throughout, including coordinating with my mom regarding Mr. President’s care and handling while I was away. It was clear she was attentive, patient, and genuinely invested in doing things the right way. I truly appreciated her reliability and care during this time.
It was my first time leaving blue in doggy daycare And he looks very happy. Looks like he’s been taken care of and he had a good time over there from the pictures that I see. I had a little hesitation, but I can see that there was no reason for me to hesitate. I will definitely keep using her for all my dog sitting needs.
Aileen was extremely responsive and kind. Loha was great at her place and took a good nap as well. He was very comfortable and we were also very comfortable as she greeted us so kindly. It was a very short notice, but she was extremely accommodating as well. We would definitely see her again.!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Bayside
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Bayside on Rover is $44.4 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 .

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 Bayside 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 NY 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.
