“I was a little nervous to leave my dog Lucy with a sitter because she is elderly and has special needs. Jennifer did a great job and I could tell that Lucy was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Jennifer is a lovely person and I will not hesitate to leave Lucy with her again.”
“We brought our dog to Whitney’s house for three days while we were in the area for work and she took great care of him! She was super flexible since we needed to pick him up at different times each day. And our dog was happy and well exercised when we got him in the evening. If we are ever back in the area again and need babysitting we will definitely bring our puppy back. Thanks Whitney!”
“Biscuit is a little nervous around new people and Tracy was able to put him at ease! He walked with her and cuddled which he doesn't do freely. Great job and I will call Tracy again.”
“Laura kindly helped me out, taking Cosi for a last min booking for daycare with one day notice, even though she had an exam that day. She even provided pick up and drop off from our home. We are lucky to have her helping us in a tough spot! And Cosi was very happy to see her. ❤️”
About: I’m experienced in caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I love walking dogs, teaching them new tricks and words and most of all play time outdoors. I will give them all the love while you’re away. I am a homemaker with free availability, I am usually home meal prepping or tending to the garden. I am flexible with schedules and routines to fit your needs. I have a home with a large fenced yard in NW Albany. I have two doodles in my home. We spend a lot of time outdoors especially in the morning. Lots of cuddles, playtime, and treats are shared and given throughout the day.
“Bridget had a great time with Novely. Novely was very kind and caring with Bridget. With the photos and video Novely sent I could see that Bridget ran and played in the yard with Novely’s dog and had a fun day.”
“Catrina is terrific! Our dogs had a very good time with her, and she sent us updates and photos, and it was great to see them out and about. We highly recommend Catrina.”
“Chelsea was great with my dog, she was very responsive and you can tell how much she loves dogs! My pup came home very tired and happy from running around with her boys all day. Would definitely recommend her!”
“Zuri is an exceptional sitter, I’m so thankful to found her, she’s always been sweet and kind to reply and take care of my big boy. I’m sure my puppy is always happy to be at her house. She takes some adorable pictures and videos and send it to me. An amazing sitter that I love!!”
“Wendy is awesome! She took amazing care of Norman while our family was gone. It was his first stay and she made him feel so comfortable and well taken care of. Plus during his stay, he got to have fun playtimes with other dogs as well! Wendy is very friendly and easy to work with. She was also great with photos/communication during Norman's visit.”
“Shelby did a great job with my sweet old dog. He felt so comfortable, and I could tell that he was excited to see her by the way he was prancing at the front door when we arrived. There was even a special gift in his travel bag when we got home and a thank you card! I will definitely use her services again, he loves her.”
“This was our first time finding a dog sitter. Tianna was very friendly, knowledgeable and made my wife and I comfortable with the process. Our dog was well taken care of, and will definitely keep Tianna as a favorite for future dog sitting.”
About: I have been around dogs and cats since before I could walk! I started pet sitting for my neighbors when I was a kid and have spent most of my life helping out my friends and family with their pets. I am a huge animal lover and also very active! I often pet sit for my friends and love to take their dogs on walks and runs. I live in Albany with my cat, Bill, and work from home a lot so I have lots of availability and would love some more dog time in my life! I work from home four days a week (wednesday’s i am in office) so i have a lot of availability to spend time with your dog! I am also an active runner and walker, so I can get your pup outside and get out energy if that’s what they need, or we can cuddle up inside and play or hang out :) I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment with lots of grassy areas and walking paths around. I do have a cat, he gets along well with dogs, but your pup would need to be okay with cats! I have a very gentle approach to dogs and respecting their boundaries is so important to me. Depending on what you prefer for your dog, they are free to roam my apartment and be on furniture, unless you prefer them not to be! I have some experience training so if you’re in the middle of building habits, i will adhere to those practices :)
“Kyra has been so wonderful to work with training our 1 year old! I can tell she genuinely cares about his development and well being. She is very responsive and flexible. We look forward to continuing having her and her pups be a part of our dog’s life.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14. Whenever my parents need it I care for their elderly lab mix. Also, I had a dog I loved dearly who I lived with and loved for 6 years. He was an Aussie collie named Buddy and I miss him dearly. Every dog I watch now I care for with the same gentleness and patience I treated him with. Pet care is my full time job currently. I am quick and responsive. I’m very eager and available to spend some time with a dog or cat I am not currently living somewhere where I can host boardings, but I hope to in the very near future, as I am moving at the end of the month
“Mickenzie was absolutely wonderful with my new puppy, Salem-Blue! From our first interaction, it was clear that she’s a natural with animals, and she went above and beyond to ensure Salem-Blue was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Her communication was excellent, updating me with texts and adorable photos throughout the day. It was such a relief to know my puppy was in such loving and capable hands. I highly recommend Mickenzie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. Thank you, Mickenzie, for being so amazing!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Buena Vista
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 207 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Buena Vista. 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 Buena Vista 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 OR 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 207 sitters in Buena Vista, 82% 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.
