“I can’t recommend Taylee enough! He. She took my dogs in last minute and was absolutely amazing. My dogs instantly loved her and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. Reliable, kind, and clearly great with animals—I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life and always been the main person to take care of them. I love taking my dogs on walks and hanging out with them! I love all animals and I think they deserve the best care that one could give! I am used to being around dogs/cats of all ages from puppies to pretty old dogs I currently do not have a job due to just coming back from college in West Virginia, so I have a very free and flexible schedule! I have a fenced yard and I have two dogs of my own that would be able to keep your pups company if needed! They are extremely friendly, however I can also keep them separate from my dogs if requested.
About: K-9 Care Crew A loving family care team for your pet We are a retired dad and two children team that will provide your pet with constant attention and care. We have a loving home with a very large enclosed backyard. Your dog would not just be in their kennel but in our home as part of our family. I only watch one dog at a time unless it's from the same family because it's not about the money as much as ensuring your dog gets all of our complete attention and love. Your dog will usually get a minimum of one walk a day... (usually on the Spanish Fork River Trail when weather permits) We will go out of our way to accommodate special requests when needed. Your pet will love coming on vacation to our home !!! Love is the vibe here ❤️ Since I'm retired I am completely available for your dog. Occasionally, I have to leave to go to the store or to the gym etc... but am extremely responsible so I would prefer to be with your dog as much as possible while it is in my care ❤️ We have a very large fenced in backyard for your pet to enjoy. We also will take your dog on walks daily. Also, we would not keep your dog in it's kennel for the most part but allow it to join our family and be with us most of the time.
“Janine was great!! We got lots of updates, photos and videos. She's very responsive to messages. She was creative with getting him to play and engage. It was our anxious corgi's first time staying with someone else and it was an overall great experience!”
“Kara and her family were fantastic! We used her for 2 days of daytime dog sitting while I was on a business trip. My husband dropped off and picked up and said he said they were amazing! My doggy was spoiled and seemed so happy there!”
About: I have a loving family of six with AWESOME indoor and outdoor space to take great care of your furry besties. I am home most days and nights full time. 3 of our kids homeschool, and assist with much of the work and care. I’ve cared for pets large and small, young and senior, my whole life. Our outdoor space is large and fully fenced with shade and grass to play and relax in. I can also care for pets as needed indoors in our main living spaces. My space offers many options for play, rest, and I’ll make sure they’re loved, happy, and healthy. I am home often during the day and always at night. Part of our children’s education is to learn responsibility and to work well and often in the home. Caring for others pets as a business teaches love, care, empathy, work, and so much more. Their care will be a high priority in my home! Fully fenced large backyard with lush grass and shade. Roomy indoor pet-friendly spaces. Daily exercise and play for friends with lots of energy. Many opportunities for caring human interaction.
About: I’ve had dogs in my home since I was 7 years old. We’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from a 6 week old puppy too a 15 year old senior. We’ve cared for many breeds. I am a stay at home mom with a 10 year old girl and a 5 year old boy. I have plenty of free time to care for, walk, and play with your dog(s). I have a loving pit bull who is a gentle giant and two cats. I have a large fenced yard. My home is very small but we make do. I also have two children who love animals. We have a black house cat and a white Maine Coon. I am a firm believer that you should care for your animals the way you care for your children. I will provide a safe and loving environment for your your furry four legged baby(s). And my kids will play fetch with them for hours on end.
“This was my first time using Rover and I kinda decided to try this at the last minute. All I was thinking about was how much I didn't want my sweet pup to be home alone while I had to be gone for several hours. I usually would be very particular about who I would let watch my pup (if at all), but after reading the reviews for Renee, I decided to let my guard down a little. Renee was so kind and treated my sweet boy like he was one of her own! It makes me feel good that Renee and her kids enjoyed him being there and he was well behaved. I definitely would recommend Renee and plan on requesting her again, just not at the last minute like today. 😉”
About: I have had pets all my life, dogs, cats, hamsters, birds. You name it, I have probably had it. I love all pets but especially dogs! I have taken all the dogs I have own to training and love being with them. I own 2 dogs now. 1 is named Koda and she is a full golden retriever and the other is Lucy, she is a Golden retriever/ Lab mix. They are indoor lovable dogs. I believe that dogs are apart of the family, so in my house they are allowed to be on the furniture to cuddled with! I am a stay at home mom and have 2 dogs. Your dogs will be walked (when it is not crazy hot out) Loved on and played with while you are away! I am happy to send daily pictures of your pups if you would like! I have a fenced yard and crates for bed if you are more comfortable with that. I have 2 dogs for yours to play with and 3 kids, aged 10,12 and 14 who love and respect dogs. I love to play fetch with dogs and other games. We even have a small splash pool for the dogs to play in.
“Ashley and her daughters did an amazing job with taking care of our pup Rocky. I received numerous pictures of him with the girls giving me a piece of mind knowing he is in such good hands. Thank you Ashley for a job well done!”
About: My name is Brianna Davis and I LOVE animals! I am looking for more opportunities to spend time with these adorable creatures. I am genuine and responsible. I understand that your pet is part of your family and I will treat them as such. You will find that I am attentive to detail, caring, and firm. I am currently not working so I am home most of the day. I may leave the house for an hour or two to run errands but other than that I am a home body. I live in a townhome with a large grassy area right in front of my house. This makes it easy for potty breaks. My neighborhood is dog friendly with walking trails and pet cleanup stations.
About: Talley’s House has two adults that work from home, two teenage dog loving sons, and two pups, Talley (12+) and Oz (2) that love to meet and play with new friends! We have a great setup for dogs of all types, and we would love to watch your dog(s)! We acknowledge we may not be right for everyone. Please read all the details in our profile to determine if our home is right for you. We work from home - pet care is baked into our daily/weekly routine. A TYPICAL DAY: 6:30-8:00 a.m. interactive playtime (fetch, tug-of-war, etc. ) 8:00-8:30 a.m. morning feeding and rest 8:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. open playtime - we work while the dogs play. They come in an out freely while we supervise from our workstation. We group dogs as needed. See the safety, trust & environment section for details. 12:00 - 3:00 p.m. treats and training followed by quiet time in kennels 3:00 - 5:00 p.m interactive playtime round 2 5:00 - 6:00 p.m. evening feeding and quiet time in kennels 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. interactive playtime round 3 8:00 - 9:00 p.m. quiet time 9:00 - 10:00 p.m. final playtime and bedtime routine (treats and training) 10:00 p.m. - 6:30 a.m. bedtime in kennels We prefer pickup/dropoff times between 7:00 - 10:00 a.m or 4:00 - 7:00 p.m. so we can devote time to helping the dogs adjust to the environment and their temporary pack. The only thing we need from you at drop off is their food in a ZIPLOC w INSTRUCTIONS WRITTEN on it. If needed, bring a small blanket or toy with the scent of home. We do NOT need beds, food dishes, or leash. We engage in activities that stimulate their prey drive (fetch, tug-of-war...), play drive (playtime with Talley, Ozzy, and other guests), and work on training behaviors a couple of times a day, as appropriate. They are out of the kennel interacting with dogs and people most of the day. In order for your dog to have a great experience, they need to play well with other dogs and be comfortable spending time in a kennel. SAFETY & TRUST: We have been trained in behavior recognition to ensure the safety and enjoyment of our guests. When we have multiple guests, we group dogs as needed (by age, size, "fixed" or not, temperament, and/or energy level) to optimize the experience for each guest. We feed them in a kennel to ensure food isn't shared and give them quiet time after meals to ensure they have adequate time to digest before playing again. We expect our guests to be up to date with their vaccinations. When a new dog arrives give them time to explore on their own, then we gradually introduce them to other dogs to assess temperament and compatibility. That is the reason we prefer to limit the pickup and dropoff windows so we can devote that critical time. Please see availability for more info on times. ENVIRONMENT: We have a dedicated space both indoors and outdoors for the dogs. Inside we have an air-conditioned apartment dedicated to the dogs. They have a couch, area rug, background music, and their own 4x4, 4x6, or 5x5 kennel. We reserve a corner for a workstation where we work during the day. Outside we have a fenced area for the dogs with turf and toys. We setup a canopy for extra shade on hot sunny days since we don't have natural shade from trees yet. We wet the turf down on hot days to ensure it's comfortable for the dogs as well.
“Stephanie was quick to respond and was able to accommodate our last minute needs. Our first time using Rover but any trepidations were quickly replaced with trust that our dogs were getting excellent care!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Elk Ridge
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 455 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Elk Ridge. 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 Elk Ridge 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 UT 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 455 sitters in Elk Ridge, 90% 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.
