About: Both Matt and I have taken care of animals since we were young for friends &family. We have two frenchies both are two years old ( please keep in mind when they first meet a new dog they get very excited, can have a lot of energy and LOVE to play) We have also had experience with numerous breeds. Your fur baby will have lots of fun and love in our home. Having two frenchies, we know how high maintenance some dogs can be, that’s why it’s important to us to provide the best experience for you and your fur baby. During Monday-Friday I work 8-5. However, Matt does work from home so will be able to give your fur baby all the love and attention!( if Matt does have to step out it’s typically no longer than 2 hours but not often ) If you have any questions regarding our schedule, please feel free to reach out. If for some reason Matt does have to leave for more than a couple hours, we will block that day off as we do not believe in leaving fur babies alone for long periods. We are homebodies on the weekends as well. So someone will always be with your fur baby. We will make sure your fur baby gets plenty of walks and outside time. We live in a nice/quiet neighborhood. When the weather is nice, our frenchies love to sun bathe, play fetch, we also set up their splash pad, so we spend lots of time outside. We do allow dogs on our bed and furniture( if you allow it) we will not crate your dog unless we do have to step out ( which again is not often). During the night, we will not crate unless you prefer them in a crate. Please let us know if there is any special request and we can accommodate. We do ask for a meet n greet for any boarding to make sure your dogs and our two frenchies get along. Your fur baby’s safety and comfortability will always be our priority as well as our babies. We know how it feels leaving your fur baby and you might get anxious so we will make sure to send a daily update. *Please note we are happy to accommodate large dogs, they MUST get along with little dogs. We do only accept one large dog at a time. Please be sure to look at our pics as we do have a short fence, if your dog is known for jumping we may have to utilize a dog lead* **DROP OFFS/PICK UP- Please do not show up early without talking to us prior, If you are going to be late, please let us know asap, we operate around your guys times selected and schedule other bookings/meet n greets around drop offs and pick up ***
“My puppy Cooper has visited Tristan a couple times and we will be continuing weekly doggy day care once a week. I love knowing he is having a good day full of walks and attention, helping Cooper develop skills in his puppyhood. Tristan sends a lot of good photos showing Cooper having fun!”
“Silver is just FABULOUS!!!! Our anxious Aussies took to her "pack" in a short period of time and were playing and socializing beautifully. Their first time with her went way better then I could've even imagined, so much so, I booked her again for an overnight. Silver is an absolute pro. She understands limits and makes sure to handle doggie introductions slowly and carefully, with confidence and awareness. 5 stars!”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and have been taken care of dogs for 2. I have a husky at home and a yorkie. Also have a cat and bearded dragon! I’m currently a graduate student working from home. That means I have a lot of flexibility and time to fill! Taking care of your pet will mean the world to me! I have a fenced yard so they have plenty of space to run around. I have a husky that is about 6 years old, a 2 year old Yorkie, and a 3 year old cat that roam around the house. Although it will be very easy to keep them separate if needed!h
About: I have been around pets my whole life. I had a beagle that was 2 when I was born so I grew up helping care for her. I have cared for turtles, fish, and a chameleon. Currently, I have a cat that I have raised from birth. I have helped my aunt with her two golden retrievers when she needed someone to take them out during the day and feed them while she was at work or away on vacation. For the past two summers, I have cared for my uncle's 12 year-old chocolate lab when their family is on vacation. She is a senior dog that needs a little more care and consideration. I am a recent high school graduate and my summer is open. I am attending Mott Community College in the fall, so I am also not going away to school. I plan to provide service to the client at their home. I currently live at home, so I can't care for animals at my house.
About: I have been training, showing, and caring for dogs for over 30 years. I have extensive experience in dog training and behavior modification. We have a small cozy kennel with doggie daycare located on our personal property Dog watching, training, and showing is my full time job. I have extensive experience with introducing dogs into packs for safe fun play. I work with owners teaching them how to train their dogs and will help with extra training as available. We have 10 individual kennels for dogs at night and a large indoor doggie daycare play area as well as a 6 ft fully fenced outdoor play area.
“Leah is very kind and responsive. Our dog enjoys going over and running around the big fenced in yard and playing with her dog Rosco. Leah sends picture updates and keeps you updated. Definitely recommend and will keep using ourselves!”
“I’m so happy I found Diane and Grimm to care for my little Chihuahua! They have a large lovely back yard with a secure chain link fence, a covered patio and a huge shade tree. Since Diane works from home, she’s able to give each pup lots of individualized attention. They only accept one dog at a time, though, so it’s good to book well in advance.”

I am currently only doing college classes and rover so I have open availability to care for your family members and all the love to give them I have a 4 foot tall fully fenced in half acre yard with a Bernese mountain dog puppy who can keep your babies company along with two dog friendly cats
“Great experience. Laura was waiting for Bryce and greeted him immediately. She sent pictures within an hour and I could tell he was behaving as always. Very comforting. And topper I sent a message when we would be there for pickup and she had him watching at the front door. Nice transition. I’m hopeful to use her frequently while I’m in town.”

“Pfeiffer had an amazing time. Daria communicated well and took great care of my boy. Our furbabies mean so much to us so we need to ensure the care they get when we aren't around is top notch. When I picked him up, I could immediately tell how much fun he had and how well he connected with Daria. He didn't want to leave her.”
“As always, my dogs loved their stay with AnnMarie! They returned home happy & sleepy after a full day of fun. Thank you, AnnMarie, for loving my dogs like your own :)”
“I know Fred loved it there and loved Ziggy. Taking him home he had no stress. He had a wonderful time, and wanted to go back today. I had to look at pout face today! Thank you for taking good care of him! We will be back.. Julie Richards”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Goodrich
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 498 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Goodrich. 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 Goodrich 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 MI 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 498 sitters in Goodrich, 85% 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.
