“She was very communicative, followed all of my instructions, and shared lots of photos and updates. She seemed genuinely caring toward my dog. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Wendy and her husband took great care of my dog and sent me updates during the day. Zoe can be shy and sensitive at first with new people, but she warmed up to them so quickly! Their dog Hero is so cute and playful as well. I would recommend her, and Zoe looks forward to her next daycare there!”
“Julia was great! We left our puppy Sonny with her one afternoon until the afternoon the next day and she kept sending us updates and pictures of him having fun. This made us feel so good knowing that she was taking the best care of him and that he was happy. We would definitely recommend and use Julia again.”
“June was able to get me in at the last minute, Layla is a very shy and anxious dog and when I came back to pick her up she was so calmy, happy and playing around thank you so much will def come again. :)”
“I am really thankful I found Arianna. My dog warmed up to her very quickly , she gives helpful updates and I am so thankful for how accommodating she is. Sway & I thank you.”
“My dog ("Beans") was at ease with Wenxu and her husband from the moment we arrived. I was provided with regular updates and pictures regarding her care and status. Communication response time was quick and efficient. I will definitely use Wenxu to watch Beans when the need arises again and would highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been walking all my friend’s different type of dogs since I was 14! I owned a Shiba Inu and I love playing with him. I am currently taking a gap so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I’m usually free in the afternoons and would love to spend that time walking and caring for dogs. I’ll always follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their dog feels safe and comfortable. I can take them on walks, play with them, and keep them company depending on what they need.
“Tina was so awesome to work with! She watched our super high energy 2 year old lab mix (Kenzie) for daycare at her home. She sent lots of pictures and updates and made sure to ask us lots of information about our dog before we dropped her off. I appreciated how much communication she provided and all of the pictures she sent!”
“Eric took such wonderful care of my 7 lb dog, Shelby! Shelby is a small pup who needs a lot of extra love and attention, and Eric made sure she felt safe, cozy, and completely showered with affection the entire time. I was updated regularly and had total peace of mind knowing Shelby was in such gentle, caring hands. It can be so hard to find someone you trust, but Eric went above and beyond. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“Melissa was responsive to my messages as a new Rover customer. She looked after my dog well and was able to accommodate on short notice. Her home is very clean and spacious living room for my small dog to walk around. I recommend her.”
“Michelle was amazing with Milo! This was our first time leaving him with someone else, so I was a little nervous, but she made the whole experience so much easier and more comfortable. She was very attentive, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs, which gave me a lot of reassurance. I really appreciated the updates and how she made sure Milo felt safe and cared for. When I picked him up, he was happy and relaxed, which means everything to me as a dog mom. It was clear he was in good hands the entire time. The pickup and drop-off process was also smooth and convenient, which I loved. Overall, I had a great experience and would absolutely trust Michelle with Milo again!”
“I have not enough words to express how excellent Llona took care of my puppy for a few hours, so we could go to explore the liberty statue. She informed about Peter, what he was doing, everything they went for a walk, and she also sent me pictures of him playing with her dogs. I truly recommend her if you are looking for somebody responsible, caring, kind, and lovely. I will definitely leave Peter again when we come back to New York!”
“Jennifer was great with our puppy, Sky! We needed a dog sitter while we went out for the evening and she sent us photos and videos throughout the night. She had great communication and kept us informed throughout the stay. She created a comfortable environment for him, which put us at ease as well.”
“I enlisted assistance of Bianca when I needed to board my pets over the holiday due to last minute work reassignment and Bianca made herself available on short notice. I also placed my babies in her daycare and she was more than helpful in rearranging her schedule to meet our needs.She has been more than kind, attentive and accommodating to my babies, Autumn and Pumpkin, from the moment they met. She took the time to bring her baby, Bb, to meet my pups I and ensured that everyone got along. She's focused on assuring me that my babies needs are met with contact continuously while they're in her care - with pictures videos and text updates. If you're looking for a dedicated, responsible, caring individual to care for your babies, then have found the one in Bianca. I am so grateful for the care she has provided my babies and will continue to enlist her help in the future.”
“Nashay is the only person outside of family who has taken care of my little guy and I’m not sure I’d trust anyone else. Even though it was two months between visits, he went right with her and barely wanted to leave when I came to pick him up. I love the constant updates with pictures and knowing my dog is safe and cared for!”
“Laura was the perfect sitter for our puppy, Rocky. We had a last minute trip to the area and she accommodated the last minute booking AND was gracious and understanding when we needed to change our drop off time. I would highly recommend Laura as a pet sitter!”
“I’m so happy I found Nari and Ryan. They cared for my Chester as if he were their own dog. I felt so comfortable leaving him with their family. He slept like a baby because they gave him good walks. He also was so happy to return the next day, wagging his tail and running to their door for day 2. They are the best!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Glen Head
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 11,098 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Glen Head. 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 Glen Head 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 NY 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 11,098 sitters in Glen Head, 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.
