Absolutely phenomenal! I have just moved from Las Vegas Nevada and I don’t know that many people out here yet. Her warm personality and smile makes you feel at ease. I was already struggling to find someone last minute do to some house work needed but seems like everyone wasn’t too keen on watch a pit mix. No hesitation from her whatsoever and super responsive! Will definitely be back !

Our dog is recovering from a spine injury and Emily did a nice job giving her good care. She didn't hesitate to do everything according to our specifications. We didn't need to worry. Joy was in good hands.

About: I have a consistent morning walk routine and welcome yours joining me. Our dogs are great hosts who respect our guests. I have fostered for years, from bottle babies to seniors, so have lots of experience with new dogs and short term visitors. I am primarily working from home and can keep your dog company. On days when I do have to go to the office, your dog will be alone (with our dogs) for only 4-6 hours. I know a tired dog is a good dog, so some exercise and playtime are built into our mornings and afternoons. We have two dogs - a 9 year old (DOB Jul 2017) 10 pounder and a 7 month old (DOB Dec 2025) golden retriever. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of safe space to run. We have several crates here if needed or preferred.

About: We got our first pup in 2011. All 3 dogs we’ve owned have been since they were puppies. We’ve taken care of pups who require shots and pills. We treat pups in our house like family members. My husband and I have off weekends. My husband works from home so dogs get let out frequently. I’m a high school teacher so I also have summers off. We’re happy to follow your routines so they feel at home. I have 2 friendly dogs who love kids & pups. We just ask that your pup is friendly with kids and dogs, and is comfortable being crated for short periods of time, if needed.

Liza had a great time with Jen!! Jen is really caring and was really attentive to put Liza at ease, not always a simple task as Liza has separation anxiety. Jen was very responsive, took a bunch of pictures, and sent me lots of updates. I really appreciated it and highly recommend her!

About: I own It takes a village animal rescue, though I am taking a 2 year break, I have had 451 dogs come through my rescue in the last 10 years. I can help with house training, and basic puppy skills. I have probably had about 100 plus puppies in the last 10 years. I have a facebook account for the rescue and you can see all that My Volunteers and I have done over the years. Dogs must be neutered or spayed. Pet care has been a way of life for me for the last 13 years, I own an animal rescue but am taking a 2 year hiatus, but miss having dogs around all day. I am home 90% of the time, so I am there to let dogs out who might not be potty trained or sometimes we just lay on the couch watching TV and getting rubbed. I have a fenced in yard with lots of room to roam. I also have Mr Donovan, 110 pound hound mix that lost his 2 playmates in the last 2 months, so he would love having another friend to hang/ play with.

Reid was great. Blu didn’t want to seem to leave once it was time to go home. He slept good that night and even slept in the next morning! If you have a needy dog Reid is the sitter for you! Blu just loves human attention and he received lots of attention and play time.

About: I have over 20 year experience owning, showing and competing dogs for clients as well as my own. I have titled/finished dogs in conformation shows and agility and currently own working German shepherds that are trained for personal protection. I have worked with animals my entire life from dogs to horses and everything in between, I’ve worked for many boarding/ doggie daycare facilities and worked as a hospital tech at animal hospitals. I am extremely confident working with any breed or temperament! I currently own and manage a small farm raising sheep, goats and cows which gives me a lot of free time I’m looking to fill. I am home all day and can take care of your pets while you are working or away I have a fenced in yard and 3 dogs that can keep your pups entertained during their stay and if they are not dog friendly we can accommodate that as well! I work from home so I have plenty of time to make sure all your pets needs are met! We have dog friendly pups that can also play with your pup if requested! We have a fenced in property and supervise your pups at all time wether they are inside or outside. We can also crate them as needed/requested by owners!

About: I have over 20 years of experience in animal care from horses to dogs to cats. I have taken care of animals that need special medical care for weeks at a time. I've had friends, family and co-workers sit their pets for overnight stays in the comfort of my home. I also will go to your home to check on animals, administer medication or simply take them for a walk or play some fetch! I work from home, so I have plenty of time to take your pup for a walk, stop in for a check in or even take your dog for an extended period of time. I'm available during the week and the weekends. I have a big fenced in back yard and a 2 year old Giant Schnauzer for your pup to play with. If your dog is older and more laid back, they can also enjoy the nice fluffy beds inside and some one-on-one time to suit their needs. I also have crates to suit all sizes of dogs. I do have 2 cats so if your dog doesn't like cats, please let me know so i can keep them separated.

Mutig was so happy when we picked him up! I have been nervous about where to leave him during a vacation we have coming up, but I was put at ease after this stay. She sent so many happy pictures of Mutig and Quincy playing and sent me updates of how he was doing. Yvonne and her husband were very caring. She fed the dogs separately, took them out often, and showed a lot of care. We are so glad we found her to have piece of mind that we are leaving Mutig in good hands when we cant be there!

I was in town for a family celebration and needed someone to watch Zeus for a few hours. I’m so happy to have found Olinda. She took amazing care of him. She is very sweet and very accommodating! Zeus took to her right away and had a blast playing in her fenced in backyard! She kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout his visit! I will absolutely use her services again the next time we are in town. Thank you Olinda! You were great!

Amrita was amazing with Cleo. Cleo was calm and enjoyed her time. Amrita sent plenty of pics of Cleo which served to keep me calm so I could enjoy my time away. :-) Amrita also was incredibly responsive both before during and after the booking.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Golts

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 401 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Golts. 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 Golts 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 MD 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 401 sitters in Golts, 86% 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.
