“Eddie took a great care of my dog who struggles with separation anxiety. I was worried in the beginning when I left my dog, but felt better when Eddie was sending me pictures and kept updating me. Will be definitely going back.”
“Monica was so accomodating to our schedule and took Suki in on short notice! She was amazing with updates throughout the day and Suki was dead tired by the time we got her back. Her beautiful daschund Peppy got along super well with our own and I hope they become good friends. Will definitely be rebooking in the future for our doggy daycare and boarding needs. Thanks so much Monica and Peppy!”
“Will come back for sure! Lisa sent pics right away and more throughout the day. Loved the videos! It really helps to get updates so I know Kimi was having fun and is safe. My baby had a great time, no sign of distress…just tired. Thank you Lisa!”
“Lucy was wonderful with Hiro. She was kind, attentive to his needs, and kept us updated throughout his stay. She was very gentle with him, and we could tell Hiro had such a great day in her care because he came home tired and slept like a baby. We would be happy to book with her again in the future. Highly recommended!”
“Leizl and Mhae did a wonderful job caring for my dog Ruby. 🐶 She came home calm and tired and that shows a day well spent. I appreciated all of the photos and messages throughout the day. Their care and interest in her was so clear. Ruby looks forward to seeing you again soon.”

They also had a lovely dog, they were careful and responsible with ensuring both of them were safe and comfortable around each other.”
“Angel and Ken did a wonderful job taking care of my dog Dorca while I was at work. Drop off and pickup were nice and easy and they kept me updated with pictures. Dorca was excited about the recent snow and has been more active than usual, however Angel and Ken must have played with him quite a bit because I picked up a tired and happy dog at the end of the day. I hope to leave Dorca with them again in the future.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Richmond Hill
I found Otto to have appeared content with his stay with Elaheh, and no sign of concern that he had been unhappy to stay with her. The price on this stay was extremely competitive for this area. We had initially thought that there was a delay/lack of communication but later I started realizing that either she or we were slightly confused about the rover apps. I would not hesitate to ask her to care for Otto if I needed care in this area again.
I met Tae through the Rover app when I was looking for daycare for my 10-month-old Cockapoo, Lola. From our very first interaction, I had a wonderful experience with both Tae and her husband. They were warm, respectful, responsive, and incredibly accommodating. When I arrived to drop Lola off, they were both waiting to welcome us with genuine excitement. They immediately made Lola feel comfortable and at ease, which gave me great peace of mind. Throughout her stay, Lola was well cared for, well fed, and even enjoyed a lovely long walk. Tae also kept me updated by sending photos of Lola having a wonderful time on her walk, which I truly appreciated. It was reassuring to see how happy and relaxed Lola was in their care. I highly recommend Tae to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and loving daycare for their puppy or dog. Knowing that Lola was safe, happy, and so well looked after meant everything to me. Thank you, Tae! We look forward to seeing you again. 🐾❤️
Irena was fantastic! I had zero stress leaving my dog with her because I know he was well cared for in a clean home. She doesn't take many dogs, so I know he is getting plenty of attention. I would highly recommend her and will certainly be bringing my dog back for daycare and boarding.
We are so happy we found Lucy! She took such wonderful care of Nikki today and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout the day, which we really appreciated. It was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Nikki was. She followed Lucy everywhere, and it was clear from the photos that she was having a great time! Lucy is so caring and wonderful with Nikki, and we feel completely at ease knowing Nikki is in such good hands. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter!
Thank you, Maria, for taking such great care of Coco. You kept us updated with photos throughout his stay, which was very reassuring and gave us peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Coco was clearly very happy and comfortable with you, and it was wonderful to see how relaxed he was. We also really appreciated that you were able to give him his medication without any issues. Your care, attention, and communication were excellent, and we would not hesitate to book with you again. Highly recommended.
It was the first time with Nooshing and she took care of Ella so well. She took her walk for more than 2hrs and play with her like her own dog. I feel so relieved that I find a place that I can trust. Thankful to her and I will recommend anyone who looking for reliable person

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Richmond Hill on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of August 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 .
There are 4,424 sitters on Rover for Doggy Day Care in Richmond Hill. About 88% of Richmond Hill sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
Your dog’s first day care experience is a big milestone! To help your pup settle in comfortably, we recommend:
- Food and treats portioned for the day, with feeding instructions
- Your dog's leash and collar (ensure tags are up-to-date)
- Any seasonal gear, such as paw-safe wax for winter or a cooling vest for the summer
- Medication, if applicable, with clear dosage notes
- Any special care instructions or training tips to help your sitter provide the most personalized care possible
Tip: Upload this information directly through the Rover app before drop-off. The more context you provide, the better your sitter can tailor the day to your dog.
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!
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 Richmond Hill 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.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they do not have any disqualifying offences.
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.
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 ON ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines such as the DHPP or DA2PP, Rabies, and Bordetella.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:
- 80% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 86% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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.
