About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was young, and I now have over 18 years of hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Friends, neighbors, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and give their pets the same love and attention they would. I’m patient, responsible, and passionate about making every dog feel safe and happy. I work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the week. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays after 2 PM for walks, drop-ins, or boarding. Also im at full time college student I live in a clean, pet-friendly apartment where animals can relax and feel safe. I follow each pet’s routine closely, provide lots of attention, and make sure they’re supervised at all times. I can also crate your dog if required.

“Dan provides a great environment for dogs, especially those who are a little shy or nervous. My fur baby is small and takes time to warm up, and Dan was patient and attentive from the start. He was comfortable, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found a place I trust and would absolutely recommend Dan’s doggy daycare to others.”

About: Hello, I'm a dog lover, of all breeds, big and small and everything in between. I truly believe that your precious canine/feline will be truly at home with me. Animals off all sizes and breeds are special to me and also to God. I know I have a couple less than desirable reviews, but they were total misunderstandings. Unfortunately they stay on my page which makes me so sad because it gives me great joy to be there and stand in the gap for these precious animals. I also watch caged pets. I am very flexible, available at a moments notice. I love all animals and do everything in my power to accommodate. I'm not perfect but I love all animals perfectly. Another chance appreciated!!

About: Growing up with dogs means dog-sitting comes naturally! We love all dogs and promise to treat them just like family. From nightly belly rubs to outdoor walks, we cover it all! With a cozy home and walkable community, your pets will feel right at home. We’re very comfortable providing medications or making other accommodations for your pet’s needs. With a work from home schedule, one, or often both of us, are home most of the day! Your fur baby will receive constant attention, supervision, 1-on-1 attention, and a low-stress home for your dog 🐶 We know how important your pets are to you because we feel the same way about ours. Leaving your furry family member with someone else can be stressful, so our goal is to make the experience as comfortable and worry-free as possible for both you and your pet. Your pet will be cared for in a clean, safe, and welcoming environment where they can relax, play, and feel right at home. We take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they receive plenty of love, attention, and care throughout their stay. We believe trust starts with communication. We’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can see how your pet is doing and know they’re happy and well cared for. Whether your pet loves to cuddle, play, explore, or simply relax nearby, we’re happy to give them the attention and affection they need. Most importantly, we want every pet in our care to feel like part of the family. ❤️ Our home is a place where pets can feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their families are away.

About: Hi there! My name is Angelina, and I am a dedicated and experienced pet sitter with a passion for caring for cats and dogs of all ages. Over the years, I have developed a deep understanding of the unique needs and behaviors of our furry friends. I have worked with a wide variety of breeds and personalities. From energetic puppies to seniors, I have experience providing the love, attention, and care that each pet deserves. As a pet sitter, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the animals under my care. I am committed to creating a safe and comfortable environment for them and I understand the importance of maintaining their routines and providing them with plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection. I believe in building trust and forming a bond with each pet, ensuring that they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away. I understand the importance of clear communication with pet owners and am always available to provide updates and answer any questions or concerns. If you are looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter who will treat your furry friends as if they were my own, I would be honored to be considered. I am confident that my experience, dedication, and love for animals make me the perfect choice to care for your beloved pets. I work from home so I will always be home and able to provide potty breaks as often as needed. Just let me know if your fur baby has any specific needs and I’ll work to accommodate them. I have a large fenced yard and my own dogs to keep your dog company. I have a large doggie playpen and crates if you prefer your fur baby to be crated or separated from my fur babies. I have baby gates to keep dogs in or out of specific areas of the house while I am working (from home) and I use pet cameras to keep an eye on them while working in my home office. I’m happy to send pictures or video updates of your fur babies while you are away so you can have peace of mind and enjoy your vacation or time away while knowing your babies are in a safe environment. My dogs are small/medium, friendly, and not aggressive.

About: Get ready for your dog to be spoiled! I am the owner of a 7 acre mini homestead farm! Your dogs will absolutely love it here! There are lots of trees around and beautiful grass for them to run around in here. I have always been a natural when it comes to pets, but specifically I love dogs, especially really big dogs! I have had dogs my entire life and I now have a Rottweiler and German Shepherd at home. I make it a priority to make sure that your dogs are well taken care of, well fed, have lots of fun, and get lots of exercise! So it's more than just a regular boarding/walking experience. Also I am a bit of a photographer so plan on getting lots of beautiful pictures of your dog on the farm from me during their visit. I also have two older daughters who are absolute animal lovers and will play and pet your pups consistently while they are here. I am a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets, I am usually always home unless I am on a call for the fire station, or volunteering as a kid's jiu-jitsu coach. My land is not fully fenced off so If need be I will have to walk pups on a leash which is not a problem at all.

“Stacy has been watching Trixie about 2 to 3 times a week since I adopted Trixie at 4 months old over a year ago. She's been a godsend allowing me to work downtown and have care for Trixie. She goes above and beyond, and I'm pretty sure Trixie thinks she's her mom :) Thanks for everything Stacy!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Creston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 179 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Creston. 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 Creston 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 November 2026, there are 179 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of IL. 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 IL 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.

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 179 sitters in Creston, 86% 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 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.
