About: I have taken care of my friends and all my families dogs by housing, grooming or walking. I used to show dogs be a junior handler and train all kinds of dogs for obedience, confirmation and agility. We work from home, so we are home all day and week. We have a 5 year old cane corso and a 1 year old winner dog both males and a 12 year old female cat. I let out my dogs whenever they want to go outside they get fed twice a day morning and night. They get new toys every month from bark box. We used to make dog food but our dogs are picky and don’t like the same food all the time.
“Absolutely great!!! I am so happy I found Jessie! My dog Sasha was well cared for, I know! Picture updates throughout the day and worn out pup in the evening! Will definitely use again!”
“Lindsay and Joshua are so great with our dogs! We have a very reserved and timid dog, and she settles in and feels at home with them. Our more energetic pup also came home happy and tired. We highly recommend them.”
“Leah was: Personable. Scratch that. Like an old friend who always loved helping you out in a pinch by taking care of the pupper. She was always on it with the comms. Even sent update pics. I can’t thank her enough for being there when we needed someone. If you come thru Denver, be sure to book her.”
“Jacque was wonderful with my senior dog! She sent updates, and when I came to pick Thelma up she was in the best mood. It's very obvious how much Jacque loves dogs and treats them like her own. 10/10 would recommend having her watch your dog!”
“Timi was absolutely amazing with Beans and very welcoming it also seemed like beans really enjoyed it as well . Timi was very patient letting beans get comfortable in a new place making sure Beans had water ,outside time and also walks . We would definitely use Timi again and highly recommend using Her”
“First time using Rover and have one deaf and one very nervous pup…so i was a bit unsure about having a sitter for them! Savanah was SO great with them and really patient in allowing them time to warm up and acclimate!”
About: I’m a lifelong pet owner with experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I previously worked at a veterinary clinic, where I cared for pets with a wide range of needs, including feeding, walking, medicating, and supporting animals that were injured, anxious, or recovering. I treat every pet like family and aim to keep them happy, comfortable, and well cared for in their own routine. At home I have a 3-year-old Great Pyrenees who is dog reactive, so I’m very familiar with handling animals with behavioral needs and using patience, structure, and awareness to keep everyone safe and comfortable. I also work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I’m available for drop-in visits and walks on most weekends and holidays. I’d love to get to know your pet and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! I work from home, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and allows me to be very flexible and attentive. I’m able to take breaks throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins, and I can adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s specific needs. I’m available for drop-in visits and walks on most weekdays and weekends, as well as most holidays. Because I’m home often, pets in my care get plenty of supervision, attention, and consistency throughout the day. In my home, I provide a calm, structured, and pet safe environment for both dogs and cats, with a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time for dogs. I take introductions between animals slowly and thoughtfully based on each pet’s comfort level and temperament, and I make sure cats have their own safe, quiet spaces to relax. Because I have experience with a reactive dog, I am very mindful of body language, boundaries, and creating a low stress environment for all pets. I can separate animals when needed to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. In clients’ homes, I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any medications, so they feel secure in their own space. I am attentive to home safety as well, such as locking doors and securing leashes or harnesses, and I always provide updates so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Jason took great care of our puppy Oak while we were moving. He took Oak for multiple walks each day and he kept us updated with pictures throughout the day. Jason was flexible and accommodating with our schedule. Oak seemed very comfortable with Jason. Overall he is a great sitter!”
“This was my first rover experience and it was great! Ava was so great and super welcoming! My doggies had a great time and I would definitely be contacting Ava anytime I’m in the Denver area 🩷”
“Bill was very good with Freya and she got along well with his dog as well. Very accommodating, as I had to cut the visit short. I'll definitely be calling him in the future!”
“I couldn't be more pleased with Silvana's care for my 12-month-old puppy. From the moment he arrived, she showered him with attention, sending heartwarming pictures, ensuring he had enriching walks, and making sure he was well-fed. I spent the day worry-free, knowing my furry friend was in excellent hands. Silvana's genuine love for animals shines through, and we look forward to continuing to entrust her with our pup's care. A solid 5-star experience!”

About: I'm looking to board fun and energetic dogs. I have a large backyard and a very respectful and energetic spayed female. My ideal situation is to find dogs that are respectful and love to interact with other dogs. Weve had Tina since she was just a puppy. She's able to walk off leash and does very well with dogs around her size. Our home is safe, we have several crates and a gate. Our backyard is large and we just got a new fence to help keep the pups in. Our neighborhood is very quiet and safe as well. You'd feel comfortable arriving and leaving. We monitor play and potty breaks and also have a camera in the backyard. Open, just let me know and I will try to make it happen. Overnight works and just to stop by in the day as well. All care will be done by me. All walks, supervision, feeds, and so on. I will be the only point of contact. My backyard is large and has a newly installed fence. I have several crates in our home to house your pet if requested. Tina enjoys running around and doesn't play with her mouth. She loves to run in circles with other dogs and doesn't not have a history of aggression. She is spayed as well.

ANYSSA WAS GREAT! She sent pictures throughout the day which I loved. Aaron had so much fun and exhausted when I got him home. I would use her again in the future if the need arrises. I felt confident that my little boy was in good hands and didn't worry about him at all. Thank you Anyssa!
We submitted a last-minute request for a daytime booking, and we were so grateful that Clay and Taylor accepted! Rusty had stayed with them a few months ago, so it was great to know the door was open for him to return again :) We needed to drop him off quite early, but they were ok with that, and sent updates throughout the day. It’s comforting to know that Rusty receives such great care and attention, and is able to hang out with Copper. Thank you so much again, Clay and Taylor! :)

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Derby
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 4,547 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Derby. 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 Derby 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.
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 CO 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 4,547 sitters in Derby, 85% 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.
