“5/5 stars! Rachel is wonderful! She accommodated a meet-and-greet before taking care of Onix for the day. Although I was hesitant about the crate, Onix adjusted well. Rachel's warm welcome and professionalism put me at ease. Highly recommend!”
“Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe are an absolute pleasure to be with! I can already tell that they are going to provide continuous top level care for my puppy while she’s with them. Absolutely going to be taking her back. Thank you Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe! I’ll be seeing y’all again very soon!”
“We drove down from Ohio for a graduation in GA and needed to find someone to care for our 1.5 year old golden doodle. We’ve never left her with anyone before and were a bit nervous, especially before 12 hours from home. We were so happy with Mary and Felix and the care they gave her. We appreciated the pictures of our sweet girl that they sent to us as well. We have another graduation next year and will be reaching back out to them again for sure when we are back in the state.”
“Heather was fantastic! I get so nervous leaving Bandito with people and she sent me lots of pictures and videos to help put my mind and ease and show me how he was settling in. I will definitely be taking Bandito back. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby!”
About: I’ve been a professional dog trainer for the last 5 years. I spent my childhood training horses and showing horses and dogs. I’m very comfortable with any breed and size dog! I work from home and can make my own schedule which allows me to be very flexible with my availability to care for your pets! I have a fenced yard and ruffland crates to keep your dogs safe! I have 2 very friendly female German shepherds for you pup to play with!
“Terry is so great with our dog, Tombo! She’s so caring and really attentive. You won’t be disappointed if you’re looking for your pet daycare or boarding!”
About: Hi, I’m Brooke! I’m home with my 7 month old and have two dogs and a cat, so we are very pet friendly, my husband and I love our animals. Your pet would get a lot of attention here. I keep things as relaxed as possible and treat your pet like part of my family :) We spend time outside, and have plenty of cuddles inside. I have a fenced yard, and pets are welcome on my furniture. I’ll send you pictures and updates while you’re away too so you feel very comfortable knowing your pet is taken care of. Feel free to reach out if you want to know more or set some time to meet beforehand ☺️ Pet care is a big part of my everyday life! I’m home all day. Between my own two dogs and any pets I’m looking after, my day usually includes lots of walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping everyone on a good schedule. I love being able to give each pet the attention and care they need throughout the day. My backyard is fully fenced and offers plenty of space for potty breaks and outdoor play. I am very trust worthy and make sure your pet is secured safely in my home leaving no doors open for long periods of time.
“Amazing, amazing. Brandi sends photos and videos throughout the day. Hershey is always enjoying his time playing with toys, playing outside with his new furry friends, and enjoying sweet naptimes after he’s all tuckered out. Will continue to use Brandi for future pup day care.”
“Alexcis was great with Tiberius! I usually used boarding facilities, but I realized that Tiberius was not getting the proper care so I decided to give Rover.com a try. After reading all the reviews from other clients and reading about her experience, it wasn't hard not to choose her. Tiberius had anxiety issues when initially meeting new dogs, but at our first meeting Alexcis knew exactly what to do to make both him and I comfortable. Tiberius has had four daycare stays with her now and I wish I had found her sooner. She is definitely trustworthy and very knowledgeable in what she does!”
“Crystal was very helpful and flexible. The interactions I saw that she had with my dog Bayes were really positive. She kept me updated on how Bayes was doing, and he had a great time with her.”
“Cassie is absolutely wonderful. She has a calm spirit and was great with my puppy. She's excited to see Cassie everytime we visit. I got pictures, video and even a little training for my puppy. If you're looking for someone professional and who will take great care of you dog, Cassie should be your first choice.”
About: I've had dogs of all sizes and ages since childhood. My husband faithfully walks the dogs at least once a day. We have two small dogs who love to play and run. We would love to have your dogs here with us well-taken care of while you are away! Tessa is a stay-at-home mom who occasionally babysits or subs at school. If we accept your reservation, she will be here at home to take care of the dogs as needed. We have a fully fenced yard. We usually leave our doggie window open except in extreme weather, so your dog can go in and out as desired. We have a dachshund mix and a shiz tsu/ poodle who would love to keep your dog company
“Geraldine and her husband has been amazing with our Nui boy! They have been amazing in watching, caring and loving him while we went on our family trip to Hilo. She kept us up to date on how he was doing every day and took lots of pictures of him which made us so happy that he was enjoying himself. She is great with Nui as he is very anxious and it was his very first time away from us at all. She’s amazing and so much so that we asked for her to watch him for the day so that we could enjoy celebrating a birthday without having to worry about him. We appreciate Geraldine and her hubby for all that they do and we definitely recommend her to everyone! We will definitely keep her in mind should we need services again. Grateful and thankful for the aloha she shares with our Nui boy. Mahalo Nui loa!”
About: Hi! I’m Jamika and I would love to add your furry friends to my family! Wether they enjoying walking, jogging, swimming, playing fetch, or learning new tricks, I will be by their side for it all. I enjoy working with animals more so than humans, sometimes lol. They are very good listeners and are good for your mental health. I have been caring for animals since I was a little girl and they will always have a special place in my heart. I treat them like my own family. I offer services from just walking to boarding, if you’d like. I do have a small child in my home, so please keep that in mind when booking. Have a great one ! Hope to see you soon 🥰 I am currently a stay at home mother with one child, so I am available majority of the time unless I need to go to the store or we have doctors appointments. I have a beautiful fur baby in the home myself, so your baby would never be alone. I have a fenced in back yard. I can crate train, if you would like as well.
“Michelle was a joy to work with , she kept me updated on my pup with pictures and videos his entire stay and her dog Max is a gentle giant he made Dash feel welcomed”
“My dog loves this woman. She did a few drop-in visits for us prior to in-home daycare. We pulled up to her home and, when she saw Chelsey, my timid pup went trotting into Chelsey’s house like she forgot I existed (she was excited to see me at pickup, so no hard feelings lol). Have already booked her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Breanna. I love working with dogs and taking care of them. I enjoy having pups around the house – they really liven things up! Pet sitting brings me joy because owners are able to go on trips knowing their fur babies are taken care of and that they don't need to worry. For me, taking care of animals is not work. It’s just fun! I previously worked at a dog boarding facility where I assist with group play, potty walks, feeding, and administering medication. I have worked with every breed and can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I work from home full time so I am always around to ensure your fur baby is taken care of! This also always me to accept last minute requests! I have a small fenced yard and two fur babies of my own who love playing with other dogs and will love having the company!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Harlem
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 148 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Harlem. 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 Harlem 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 GA 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 148 sitters in Harlem, 91% 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.
