“Our puppy had a great day at Amy's. He got along with her dog and she sent me photos of them playing. I was able to relax knowing that he was in good hands while I was at work. I would definitely book Amy again if I needed a dog sitter!”
About: To say that we are dog lovers is a bit of an understatement. I have worked in veterinary medicine and been involved in dog rescuing for over 25 years. I live on a 30 acre horse farm and work from home so your dog won't be left alone all day. Your dog will be treated like family! My dogs, Biscuit, Bolt, Aspen and Bentley sleep in our bed and are treated like our kids. Our dogs will keep your dog busy! Your dog will have so much fun they won't want to go home! Bring your pets to our farm for the day or for the week, they will feel right at home and will be treated like they are part of the family. I work from home, so your pet will always have supervision. Dogs have access to a fenced yard and spend several hours outside playing together If your dog feels more comfortable in a crate they can sleep in the crate or in my room. Each dog is different. My goal is to do what makes them most comfortable.
“Lauren was amazing! She took GREAT care of my Goldendoodle Tobi. I found her last minute and she was so accommodating! I can’t say enough good things about her! I will book with Lauren again and again! ❤️”
“My Banjo loves JP. She takes excellent care of him. Shes fully integrated him into her own pack of bigger dogs of different breeds, as well as with her children. He has the best time when he goes to visit. He comes home worn out and so happy. She has so much knowledge as to animal behaviors. I’m so glad I found her.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who grew up surrounded by pups and has always had dogs as part of my family. Currently, I have an Australian Shepherd and a Lab, so I’m very familiar with both high-energy playtime and laid-back cuddle sessions. I’ve also worked at pet boarding facilities, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. From feeding routines to playtime and keeping pups comfortable while their owners are away, I truly understand what it takes to provide safe, loving care. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to offer reliable daily visits and walks. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. I’d love to help keep your furry friend happy, active, and well cared for!
About: I’ve around dogs since I was little. We have a 3.2 acre and we been taking care of my sister in law aussies every time she was traveling. I take a lot of care on everything I do. I also take care of holland lop bunnies. I currently work 4 days a week and have weekend free. I have a big fern yard for dog to play and enjoy their time while in care I would dedicate my time to them to make sure all their need are met. I’ll treat them as I would love they care for mine. I would make my best to care for them and play.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, rabbits, horses, and some other animals. Taking care of animals makes me happy and being able to help others while doing something I enjoy is always a plus! I’m currently I a college graduate from Gardner-Webb University and am located in the Huntersville area. I am able to go feed, walk, and play with the animals whenever is needed or if they have a scheduled routine I will fit my schedule to those times as best I can. I have a terrier mix at home with me inside, a few chickens outside but they stay in the coup with the ducks! So I feed and take care of my animals around twice to three times a day, but I let my dog out every time I an home and in the morning before I leave and if I stay with someone else’s dog I’ll adapt to their schedule!
About: I have had all sorts of pets all my life but dogs have always had my heart. Dogs are so sweet, goofy, and caring and I like to think that is my personality as well. I will do my absolute best to provide a fun and loving environment for any pet that comes into my home! I work from home so will be able to keep a close eye on any pet. They say that dogs are one of the best judges of character and I have no doubt that YOUR fur baby will be happy to stay with me. So.. let me give your pet a second home! I am excited to get this started and love away! I work from home! This makes it easy for me to keep an eye on your babies through out the day! I also live in a neighborhood good for walks and have a fenced backyard for exercise! I will care for your pets as if they are my own. I love to give animals love and cuddles. And of course they are welcome to sleep with me :)

“Katie was the absolute best! She sent tons of pictures and videos of Beans throughout the day. She has a lot of fenced in land for him to play and run which was wonderful. I would recommend Katie to anyone and everyone!”
About: Being a Pet Parent myself, I know firsthand what it means to building a lasting relationship with someone whom not only you and your pet trust but someone who will give your pet(s) the same love, care and attention as you would. I’m comfortable handling most breeds of dogs 🐶 from puppies up to 70lbs. I also care for cats 🐈 and all the farm 🐓🐥🐷🦆🐐 animals too! I’m home during the day & have plenty of love 💕 to give your pup or kitty while you are away. You’ll be updated twice a day throughout their stay with pics and videos at 11am and 8pm. I have a large fenced in yard that has plenty of room for fun and exercise with a surplus of toys. It is well lighted and equipped with security cameras for your pet(s) comfort and safety during their stay.
“Phil and Stephanie were awesome with my pup. They both clearly just love being around dogs, and my guy came back happy and sleepy. We did a meet and greet a few days before the stay, and the dogs goat along great. It's fantastic to feel completely at ease with the people I leave my furry friend with. Thank you Phil and Stephanie!”

“Took excellent care of my two dogs even though it was a last minute request. They came back tired from all the fun they had, i would absolutely recommend and will definitely request again when im in town.”
“Nico always loves getting to spend time at Kimberly's; in the pictures she sends, he always looks like he's having the time of his life! Awesome communication throughout the day, including photos of Nico playing with some of the other dogs. Definitely recommend Kimberly to anyone needing daycare or boarding!”
About: I have never had a dog of my own, but have plenty of experience around them! I have helped family and friends with their pets on many occasions. I am a stay at home mom and I don’t go anywhere often, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I have a large 2 story house and a fenced in area. I do have my 4 year old son and 5 year old girls at home until they go to school in August so your babies need to like kids! I have a cat, but she keeps to herself on the completely opposite side of my house from any other animals that come in. If going to someone else’s home, I will follow all instructions left for me, and take care of your home and pets as I do my own! 🩷

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Double Shoals
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 358 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Double Shoals. 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 Double Shoals 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 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 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 358 sitters in Double Shoals, 87% 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.
