“Chris and Kelly are extremely sweet, understanding, loving and caring. If you choose them as a sitter your baby will be in safe/loving hands. I look forward to using their services again!”

“I recently adopted Daisey and wasn't sure how she would do in daycare. Lindsay did an excellent job of caring for her and helped Daisey to settle into a new environment and enjoy the experience. She regularly sent me updates and photos of Daisey which helped put my mind at ease. Lindsay provided excellent care and I will definitely use her services again.”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine passion for animals and my commitment to their well-being. I understand that each dog has unique needs and preferences, and I strive to create a personalized and comfortable experience for every furry friend in my care. With extensive knowledge about dog behavior and handling, I can ensure a safe and engaging environment during walks, playtime, and social interactions. Additionally, I am attentive to any medical or dietary requirements, providing meticulous care and timely administration of medications if needed. My reliable and responsible nature, coupled with excellent communication skills, allows me to maintain open and transparent communication with pet owners, keeping them updated with regular photos and updates. Ultimately, my dedication, expertise, and love for dogs make me a standout choice for dog sitting, ensuring that every pup receives the utmost care, attention, and affection they deserve. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I understand the importance of consistency and reliability when it comes to looking after pets. On a daily basis, I allocate specific time slots for feeding, exercise, and playtime with the dogs under my care. This ensures that they receive regular meals, get ample exercise to maintain their physical and mental well-being, and have plenty of interactive and stimulating activities to keep them engaged. I also prioritize regular walks to provide them with fresh air and opportunities for socialization. Additionally, I integrate grooming and hygiene practices into their routine, such as brushing their coats, trimming nails, and cleaning their ears and teeth as required. I make sure to stay updated on any specific instructions or preferences from pet owners, such as dietary restrictions or medication schedules, and incorporate them into the daily care routine. Overall, pet care is not just a task for me; it's a dedicated commitment that I fulfill diligently and with utmost care and attention. When caring for pets in my home, I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for them. I ensure that the area where they stay is clean, well-maintained, and free from any potential hazards. I provide them with a cozy bed, fresh water, and appropriate toys for playtime and mental stimulation. Regular exercise and walks are incorporated into their daily routine, and I make sure they receive a balanced diet according to their specific dietary needs. If there are any medications or special treatments required, I administer them on time and with proper care. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I prioritize maintaining a familiar and consistent environment for them. I follow the pet owner's instructions and routines closely to minimize any disruptions to the pet's daily life. I ensure that their feeding, exercise, and medication schedules are adhered to strictly. Additionally, I pay attention to their comfort and emotional well-being, providing them with ample attention, affection, and companionship. In both cases, I maintain open and transparent communication with pet owners, providing regular updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured about their pet's well-being. I make it a point to be responsive to any specific requests or concerns they may have, ensuring that their pets receive the highest quality care and attention, whether in my home or theirs.
About: I have cared and trained service dogs. Many family and friends have counted on me to care for their pets and know that I will always put them first. I work about 4 hours a day during the week (Wednesday and Friday) and I’m never gone for over 6 hours at a time while at work. Otherwise I am mostly home and only away for 1-2 hours for errands. Pets have entire first floor. My dogs usually hang out in the huge couch or in the office watching the birds (I set up feeders to entertain my bird dog and he loves it). On nice days I’ll leave the back door open for them to come in/out as they please. They have water both inside and outside the house. Dogs love sunbathing but here is also shade area all day in case they want to stay outside but out of the sun. Backyard is completely fenced.

About: I have always had a deep love for animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. As a pet parent myself, I know that pets are family, and they deserve care that feels safe, loving, and personalized. My experience includes caring for dogs in a home environment, supporting daily routines, providing walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, companionship, and giving pets the patience and attention they need while their owners are away. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, comfort level, habits, and care instructions so their routine feels as familiar and stress-free as possible. I am also the founder of Lovebugs & Co. Pet Care, a boutique pet care service created for pet parents who want reliable, thoughtful, and loving care. My approach is calm, attentive, and detail-oriented. I believe in clear communication, regular updates, and treating every pet with the same care and affection I would want for my own. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I currently work from home in a flexible remote environment, which allows me to be present, attentive, and available throughout the day. This makes it easy for me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, companionship, and a calm home environment. Because my schedule is flexible, I can build pet care around each pet’s normal routine and make sure they receive consistent attention and care while their family is away. Safety, trust, and comfort are very important to me. For pets cared for in my home, I provide a calm, cozy, and supervised environment where they can feel comfortable and loved. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, rest time, medication instructions if needed, and any special care notes provided by the pet parent. Before boarding, I like to learn about each pet’s personality, behavior, comfort level, triggers, and routine so I can make sure my home is a good fit. I keep the environment clean, peaceful, and secure, and I provide regular updates and photos so pet parents feel confident while they are away. For walks and drop-in visits in a client’s home, I treat the home with care and respect. I make sure pets have fresh water, food if requested, potty breaks, litter box care if needed, playtime, companionship, and a quick check of their overall comfort and behavior. I also make sure doors, gates, crates, and leashes are secure before leaving. My goal is always to provide dependable, loving care while keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on a routine that feels familiar to them.

“Marta was referred to me by our regular Rover sitter for coverage while on vacation. Marta was very welcoming and thorough in the meet and greet. She has a lovely space both inside and outside for all dogs and pups. She sent many pics throughout the day to report and assess how my dog was doing. Very kind and a true dog lover! Will gladly use again.”

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for about 10 years now, through my friends, family, neighbors and my own 2 puppies! I’m a college athlete who’s very active, so I’m happy to run/play and keep energetic dogs exercised while also making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for! Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, caring for my own two dogs! However, I’m a college student now, who lives an hour away from home, but I’m back for weekends and have plenty of free time to care for pets! I provide a safe, fun environment for pets. I have a fenced yard for running around outside, and two friendly dogs who would love to make friends! I closely supervise pets and will follow all instructions/special requests strictly from owners!

About: I have always grown up with pets since I was able to walk. Dogs are my favorite thing in life!! I recently had to send my dog to heaven and haven’t been quite ever to get over it. I still have his toy and often pet sit for family and friends to try and fill the void. This will give me just that!! I currently do brand ambassador work so I creat my own schedule, which is great. My availability is very flexible. I’m here if you need me!! I have a fenced in yard for small potty breaks but I enjoy going on walks!! Being out in the fresh air getting exercise is always best.

“Danielle is great with Diggy. She keeps me updated during his stay and also send pictures. I truly appreciate her in taking care of my fur baby. Thank you, Danielle and you are greatly appreciated!!!”
“Anthony did an amazing job taking care of Mr. Brown. He is attentive, reliable, and clearly passionate about dogs. Mr. Brown was happy and well-cared-for, and I look forward to using Anthony again in the future. Highly recommended!”

“SABRINA! Is the best sitter I have had using Rover, she welcomed my baby with open arms and even offered additional services out of the kindness of her heart. My furbaby made new friends, and that part was the highlight of her services. I've even booked for her boarding services as Snipa is very comfortable with her. Thank you Sabrina, looking forward to continuing to work together!!”

“Rachele was there when we most needed it! She makes it look easy, is super flexible and accommodating, and my sweet Wyatt came home happy and well exercised and excited to go back again and again. In a short period of time, Rachele became a reliable and comforting second home & caregiver for our pup. Thank you!!!”

About: I’m an experienced dog owner with 8+ years of hands-on experience. I currently have two dogs that I trained myself and I grew up with a small terrier mix so I’m very comfortable with both large and small breeds. I am active and I work full time remote. So I’m able to be around throughout the day to stay on top of routines and give consistent care. I am a remote full time so I’m home throughout the day and I’m able to maintain a routine for my dogs and any dogs u welcome into my home. My two dogs are very friendly and socialize with dogs of all sizes. They’re fully housetrained and have a calm, respectful temperament. They do not get on the furniture and follow routine very well. I live in a large walkable neighborhood with plenty of space for daily walks plus access to a dog park, where the dogs can play safely and freely. I keep my dogs up-to-date on vaccine, vet visits and flea tick prevention and I expect the same for any dog that I host - to ensure a safe clean environment for everyone.
“I had a last minute event come up and needed a next day sitter for Coco. Roxsand was very accommodating though it was last minute. She adjusted her schedule for us even though I was at her house at 6am. Roxsand also sent several photos of Coco throughout the day. I'm very appreciative of her time, care and professionalism and Coco looks forward to coming back very soon for more fun! Thank you!”

“Let me just say Diana is awesome!!! She’s very responsive and took great care of our Ms Kenzie for 9 days . She provided updates and pictures throughout Kenzie’s stay and treated her like family. Our puppy decided to get in heat on day 2 or 3 but Diana handled it like the pro she is as we were concerned that it occurred while we were away. Diana had extra diapers and made sure she was comfortable. We were very appreciative of Diana’s attentiveness, love and care of our pooch and HIGHLY RECOMMEND Diana! Thank you so much Diana!!!!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bristol
Madelyn took great care of our pup while he spent the day with her family. She explained how she would safely introduce Archie to her dog and another dog she was pet sitting which was very reassuring. We received regular updates and pictures throughout the day so we could see how he was getting on. He even came home with a little treat bag! We are very happy with the care he received and will be asking Madalyn to take care of Archie again in the future.

Once again we asked Madelyn and her family to take care of our pup while we were gone for the whole day. I knew we had made a good decision when Archie saw Madelyn and rushed over to greet her with lots of crazy enthusiasm (which he only does with people he knows and likes) and he didn't look back as he ran into the house with her. We loved seeing him having fun on the video and pictures Madelyn shared throughout the day. Madelyn and her family will always be someone we will look to in the future for our doggy day care/pet sitting needs.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Bristol
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Bristol on Rover is $21.4 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 .
As of July 2026, there are 4,555 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Bristol. 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 Bristol 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 MD 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 4,555 sitters in Bristol, 88% 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.
