About: I treat every dog like family—because that’s how I care for my own! I’ve spent years caring for my dogs and those of friends and family, especially while they were out of town. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including playful puppies and slower-moving seniors who need extra patience and love. Whether it’s belly rubs, slow strolls, or high-energy playtime, I adjust to meet each dog’s unique needs. Your pup will be pampered, safe, and loved—just like they deserve! Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. I work part-time as a home health caregiver three days a week. On those days, I have a split schedule—just 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon, with a break in between. This gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the day. Outside of those hours, my schedule is very open, allowing me to give your pet the love, attention, and care they need—whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company while you're away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every dog like my own—loved, pampered, and well cared for. I make sure they have a calm, clean, and secure environment, free of hazards and full of attention. If I’m in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs, from meal times and medication to play and potty breaks. I also send regular updates so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. With my background as a home health caregiver, being attentive, responsible, and trustworthy is second nature to me—qualities I bring to every pet I care for.

About: Growing up I have always cared for our family pets. Today I have 3 rescue dogs of my own. My pups are apart of my family. I volunteer to transport dogs to a safe homes. Animals of any type depend on their humans to care for them. When their humans can’t be there for some reason they still need that special care and attention. I have always struggled when leaving my dogs to go away. What do I do with them? Who will care for them like I do? I would like to help people to be at ease knowing your pet will be well taken care of in my hands because I understand what it is like to have that worry. I will care for your pet as though they are mine.

About: I have had animals my entire life so there is never a time where I wasn't around one. I also trust them more than people so therefore, they trust me more than most as well. I am a stay at home mom with 2 under 2 so I am always home and most likely available but I will probably have my children when I do any services on this app. I have 4 cats and 4 dogs of all colors and a variety of personalities so I am used to chaos. I have a fenced yard, pools and toys everywhere for my dogs to run around. My cats have their own room with all the beds and scratching posts they desire. I feed them on a timed schedule but have full water bowls all around the house for them to drink at their leisure all day. I have furniture set up specifically so they can look out windows and there are no rules when it comes to where they can sleep.

About: I am 24, I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals since I was a baby and have grown up with 20+ dog breeds, I’ve raised and trained Puppies with my mom for years. I have a huge heart for all animals and don’t have any allergies, I do have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 1 ball python and a decent sized backyard. I give all animals plenty of love, attention and playtime, there is forest and field parks around me so if your dog is good on a leash I can take them there to run around and play, my neighborhood is quiet and calm all the time other than dogs barking few times throughout the day, they will love it here. I’m an animal nerd and know how to care for almost any animal including reptiles, amphibians and bugs! I currently have no job due to my agoraphobia making it very hard to work and have a steady income, I am available all day every day unless I have plans I have a fenced in yard but live in a small house, all of my animals are people and pet friendly so they will not show any aggression towards you or your pets

About: I have lived on a farm since I was born until college, and my parents still live on one. I love all animals and always willing to help out. I don’t mind if they are wild puppies or older dogs we will get though the walk or stay together! I only work 2 days a week, so my schedule is pretty open! I have a very large back yard not fenced in, but I can take out all dogs on a leash.I have one other dog that your dog can play with or we can play inside to make sure everyone stays safe! I plan on walking them throughout the neighborhood. If I go to a clients house whatever the clients wants me to do to best care for their dog I will.

Rommel can be pretty shy around new folks so I am always nervous about introducing him to new people. He also isn’t a very affectionate dog (he only likes being petted when he first wakes up, then he has has enough and doesn’t really want that). When I went to pick him up he was loving all over them. I haven’t seen him warm up to anyone as quickly and as completely as he did here. What a wonderful experience!

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for 15 years. I have also worked at a vet clinic on kennel stuff and have administrated medication for both cats and dogs. I am currently working part time, and I’m in the process of starting my own business at home so I will be home mostly all day. At home I have a fenced in backyard with lots of room to run. I have a car that I can take dogs to the park and walk as well as being able to get to clients houses. I take care of all animals as if they are my own.

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life and have always played a large part in taking care of them. With my love of pets I became a Veterinary Technician and I've worked in the Veterinary field for over 16 years. I've worked in general practice and emergency. Along with working in Vet Med I have always done petsitting. I have also taken care of rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets and a bearded dragon! I have also had foster dogs and kittens and helped with rescue work. I do work full time so my availability during the week can be limited, especially during the day. I am available any time satrudays, sundays, and wednesdays. And I am available Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays before 8am and after 6pm. I like to keep your pet's needs in mind. If they are a little more timid, then I will go slow and take the time for them to trust me. If they are active and ready to go, then we will have a fun time playing right off the bat. I will make sure I follow any directions or care instructions you leave for your pet. And I will always love and treat your pet like it is my own!

Bill and Mary are a great team that took care of our pup and showed him lots of love. We appreciated a "meet and greet" with their dogs and ours to ensure they got along okay. Our pup was able to play very well with their three dogs. From the way he came home tired, he had an awesome time playing with Bill, Mary and the other dogs.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Harbor Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 499 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Harbor Hills. 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 Harbor Hills 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 OH 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 499 sitters in Harbor Hills, 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.
