“I can’t say enough great things about Kayla! She took amazing care of my 6.5-week-old Belgian Malinois puppy, going above and beyond to make sure she was happy and well cared for. She provided regular updates with pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind knowing my pup was in great hands. It was clear that she genuinely loves animals and treated my girl like her own. I highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and attentive pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“They were absolutely amazing! I was so grateful they were able to accept my day care request the day of. The communication throughout this entire experience has been absolutely wonderful!”
“They did an amazing job with my puppy. Even started crate training. They seemed very knowledgeable about dogs, and Merry was able to give me great tips on puppy basics. They always had a very thorough update after I pick her up. I will definitely use their services again.”
“Our boy spent the day with Maggie and her crew in preparation for his week-long visit in a few weeks and it was a great experience. Maggie sent us updates throughout his visit and earned our pup's trust, which is not easily given. Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I'm a lifelong dog owner and lover of many different breeds. I currently have a miniature pinscher and a dachshund who are used to company and making new friends. I've also owned beagles, terriers, and a Belgian malinois. I love to play with dogs and take them on walks. I'm responsible, reliable, punctual, and fun! I'm home every afternoon and am free for walks some mornings and I will be available for walks in the early evening during the warmer months. I'm comfortable giving them oral medications or a special diet. In a nutshell, I love dogs and enjoy them more than most people. I'd be happy to take yours on a walk or babysit. I'm also comfortable bathing and brushing them (I haven't mastered haircuts yet, though). I love all size dogs, but as I am a smaller person, it's easier for me to handle breeds under 40 pounds. I work from home part time and am home everyday so boarding and dog sitting fits in easily with my daily routine. I'm usually free on the weekends as well I have a fenced in yard and a doggy door in my home. I'm home everyday and have a pup of my own to keep your dog company.
“Oh my! Where do I start? Ruby is absolutely wonderful!! She is kind, welcoming, sweet, loving with my little dog and with her own dogs, (and also with birds of the sky), personable,very flexible,_ and accommodating!!! She took lots of wonderful photos during the day and shared them, just as I'd asked. I truly believe she made my dog feel at home, and when I picked him up at the end of the day, he appeared well cared for and happy. I am very happy with the service she provided today, and I believe my dog felt welcomed in her 🏡. I will feel very comfortable and happy to leave him in her care the next time I need her services.💖”
About: I have taken care of newborn orphan puppies and I have potty trained my friends' adult dog. My friends and family say I have a lot of patience. I am a full-time college student. I am home most of the time and I think Rover will give me something fun to do. I absolutely love pets of any kind. I love how they have their own personality I care about their health and happiness. I am very organized and I can stick to a strict schedule. I will make sure your fur baby is comfortable and happy. I'm more than happy to send pictures/videos of your pet every hour to let you know how your fur baby is doing.
“Aurelie is a skilled professional sitter. She listened attentively to our instructions and asked pertinent questions concerning the care of our fur baby. Our dog is 15 years old and is going through a very rough time in her life with anxiety and dementia, and Aurelie had no qualms about watching her. Aurelie's only concern was how to keep our little one comfortable. Aurelie revamped her home to make our little one feel safe and unafraid. That spoke volumes to me about the kind of care giver Aurelie is. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Gage was very responsive and accommodating to my dogs stay at his house. He sent pics daily, kept me informed, and they had a great time. He was flexible with drop off and pick up, and always responded in a timely manner. I will definitely use again in the future. Thanks!”
“Sammy had a great day care day! We had a quick reservation and Melissa and Dustin were amazing to accommodate and schedule a day care visit before boarding! All the photos and videos sent showed a happy dog settling in well with the other dogs in the home. The home is lovely and very dog friendly! Such a sweet couple who really love and understand dogs! Great communication and sharing of information! Will use M and D again and again!”

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 Handy Corner 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 MS 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 203 sitters in Handy Corner, 88% 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.
