“I don't think I could have found a more entertaining place for Guido to spend his day. I'm just sad that they're almost an hour's drive for me, or I would continue using them. I think Guido is actually disappointed to leave.”
“10/10 would recommend--This was our first time doing doggy day care and using Rover. Evan was great with our puppy! Evan's farm is amazing with tons of space and activities for the dogs. He is very knowledgeable, and aware of each dogs potential needs and accommodations so the dogs are comfortable. Evan is very accommodating and communicative, super fast to reply! He also sent multiple videos of our puppy playing and having fun throughout the day. Our high energy puppy got to meet other dogs and socialize. Already booked with Evan again and plan to keep booking!”

“Joseph cared for our labradoodle on two separate days of our family vacation. Our pup can be a nervous dog, and I can be a nervous Mommy when dropping her off. Right from the start Joseph did a phenomenal job! He was personable, experienced, and clear & prompt in all of our communications from the very beginning. He knows well how to handle and care for large dogs, and he gave me some helpful and appreciated advice upon picking her up at the end of the day. We enjoyed the photos, videos, and positive updates Joseph sent throughout her time with him. I knew for certain that our fluffy family member was safe and happy during her entire stay. We will absolutely contact Joseph in the future when we're in the area again!”

Thank you so much, Sonia”
“This was my babies first daycare experience. I was super nervous since I've never used a day care service before. You could tell immediately that Sanah is a dog lover!

And I definitely plan to have my babies go back for another day of fun!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - El Mirage
Thank you! Our little dog loved it there and was happy both upon arriving and leaving and arriving for her second day too. We found Leanna and Berlin to be very kind and accommodating on the hours. We highly recommend them and would be happy to be repeat customers. Thank you again!!
Sebastián and his family are magnificent. Gus thoroughly enjoyed his time. He was very calm and showed no stress like he sometimes does when he's leaving daycare. I know they played with him and fed him lots of treats and he went on good walks. This will be his home away from home as long as they're available.
Sophia was AMAZING! She was so attentive, caring and responsive when taking care of Brooklyn. She had her own space in Sophia’s home, and I was sent plenty of photos throughout my dog’s stay. This was a super smooth experience for Brooklyn and I. I’ve had some mixed experiences here on Rover but Sophia is one of the best sitters I’ve had. I will definitely be using Sophia again. Thank you again!
I’m so grateful for the amazing care my senior dog Bella receives! They’re incredibly attentive and send updates throughout my long 12-hour workdays. I get plenty of messages and pictures, and it’s clear Bella feels comfortable and well cared for. It gives me such peace of mind knowing she’s in such caring hands. Highly recommend! 🐾
Gabby did an amazing job making my pup feel right at home! She kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Her communication was great, and my pup absolutely adored her. She’ll definitely be my go-to whenever I need someone to look after my pup! 🐶💕

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in El Mirage on Rover is $35.52 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 El Mirage 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 AZ 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 1,886 sitters in El Mirage, 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.
