“Katie was so great! Super easy to work with, excellent communication. I have long shifts at work needing to drop by dog off at 7am to 6pm for doggy day care and he seems so happy and safe with Katie and her family. Really good decision and so glad she is taking care of my pup!”
“Ernesto and his family were great with our pup. He came home so tired and it was most certainly because he had a great day of playing during his stay . I appreciate the communication and pictures as well. Drop off and pick up was smooth and easy. We will definitely be bringing Waylon back to visit Ernesto !!”
“Our dog LOVES doggy-daycar-day at Haley's house. Her pups are the perfect play pals. Her yard is huge, fenced, and safe. She even lets the dogs hang out indoors. So far, we are very happy!”
“They were amazing! I was nervous to leave my pups but they were so tuckered out when they got home and I know they took great care of them while staying there! Will definitely use them again when I need a sitter!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life, and recently gained experience caring for cats, birds and rabbits. I have also spent some free time volunteering in animal shelters so I am comfortable with all animal sizes. I hope to care for your fur baby soon! I currently work remotely full time which allows me to spend time with pets who are in need of boarding. Because of my time at home, pets will receive lots of attention and care. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who are fully vaccinated and enjoy playing with others. One is an American foxhound and the other is a great dane

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I love spending quality time with pets, especially taking long walks to keep them active and happy. I am attentive to each pet’s needs, whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior dog, or a shy cat. What sets me apart is my dedication to making every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved while providing exercise, attention, and plenty of fun during our walks. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to care for pets. This allows me to provide regular attention, playtime, and multiple walks, ensuring each dog or cat feels loved and engaged while their owners are away. I prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet in my care. At my home, pets have a secure, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of space to play and relax.

“Sarah is super flexible with my odd schedule, and gives Ellie pup a comfy and fun stay! Ellie comes home very sleepy and content from her nice days with Sarah. Would recommend.”
About: I love all animals, whether they are big, small, old or young. They will be loved just as they were my own. I have owned cats, dogs, rabbits, turtles, pretty much anything that has legs. All types of animals have lived with me and been cared for by me over the course of my life! I have cared for young dogs, old dogs and started my own pet sitting business when I was 13 years old. I have a huge yard that has a 5 foot wall with lots of open space for your pet baby to run and play. They will constantly have access to the outdoors since I have an XL built in doggy door that provides access to our enclosed backyard. I work full time but I have a very friendly Shepard who is home all day to entertain our furry friends. There is always access to the enclosed backyard through a doggy door. All pets that come stay at our home are treated as my own. They are loved, cuddled and pampered. There are no safety hazards to worry about in our home.
“Staci is an excellent pet sitter that provides amazing care for our Maggie. Maggie has separation anxiety and needed to start developing social skills to help her with separation and just overall being around other people and pets. I am so happy that I found Staci, because after just the first time that she cared for Maggie, I can see how happy my furbaby gets when I even put her in the car seat. Maggie gets so excited because she knows we are on our way to a play date or overnight fun filled stay with Staci. I’ve observed how much calmer Maggie is and how much she loves to be at her sitters house. Thank you Staci for caring for our Maggie with such love and care. My family and I appreciate you so much. -Dina”

About: I have 20 years of experience caring for animals and have worked professionally in pet care, dog daycare, and grooming environments. I previously worked at PetSmart supervising pet hotel operations and at a grooming salon and daycare managing daily care and customer needs. I also help my husband with our at home grooming salon. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities and needs, and I understand how important patience, safety, and attention to detail are. I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away! As a stay-at-home mom with one child and two dogs of our own, I have flexibility in my schedule and can coordinate pet care around my family’s routine. I’m happy to discuss availability with pet parents in advance to find times that work for everyone. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll do my best to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and other care needs. Safety, trust, and making every pet feel at home are my top priorities! I have two extremely friendly dogs of my own who love to play and can help visiting dogs feel more comfortable and welcome in a new environment. With my 20 years of pet care experience, including working in pet hotels, daycare, and grooming, I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and paying attention to each dog’s personality and needs. I always follow pet parents’ instructions and routines, and I want every dog to feel safe, loved, and cared for while away from their family. I’m happy to discuss introductions and make sure all dogs are comfortable together before playtime.
About: Have owned my own dogs and cats over the years. As they've grown older and passed on, I have satisfied my love for animals by caring for my kids' pets when they go on vacation. I've gone to their house and stayed, but also they have stayed in my home while mom and dad are away. We go for walks, and I have a fenced in yard and doggy door them to come and go as they please. Like my grandkids: I love having them and playing, but I also love the flexibility of sending them back to mom and dad! I am a retired teacher and am home most days. I have various errands during the day, or other things, but nothing that would interfere with visiting guests. I no longer have a dog of my own but our visiting fur babies ( and the grands) have a fenced yard with doggy door. Dogs are secure inside the back yard. I care for one dog, that loves the back yard and wants to stay out all day, weather permitting. He is safe and secure there with water and shade, and comes in when he is ready. But most of the dogs come inside. They are free to go out to play and do their business.

I love dogs like family and I would be honored to care for your pets! I’m a stay at home mom right now with a baby so my schedule is open during the days. I can do drop ins and walks. I am not available for over nights. In a clients home I care for the pets by letting them out, feeding them, playing with them, and doing what the owner asks me to do. If they request to be walked I will walk them. I feed them and keep them on the schedule that the owner tells me to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I can also administer medication such as pills.
About: I have had pets my whole life. I have trained puppies, given medicine and my pets live long pampered lives. I have 2 dogs now! I am not working so my schedule is flexible.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Colon is $20 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $22 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 831 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Colon. 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 Colon 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.
As of October 2026, there are 831 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NC. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 NC 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
