“By far the best match for our puppy!! Extremely welcoming and comforting to both our puppy but also myself. Sending pictures and sharing how the day was going! Our puppy is passed out and very mellow after a fun filled day with Vanessa & her Family. Peace of mind that our dog baby is in safe hands.”
“Beast can't wait to visit Ms. Judy and Autumn he is always excited and running to the door. Ms. Judy is so sweet and nurturing I feel comfortable at work knowing she is caring for him. I was very apprehensive with placing him in day care this is his first experience, she puts my mind at ease with all the photos and communication throughout the day.”

About: Caring for dogs isn’t just what I do- it’s who I am. As a proud parent of three wonderful pups, I know every tail wag and each happy bark means the world. I’ll treat your dog just like my own - with plenty of playtime, safe walks, and fun photo updates so you’re always in the loop!! My husband and I both work from home and the pups are very seldom left alone. If you want your pup crated we will follow your instructions. We may run to the store for a few, but we don’t even like to leave our pets alone :) I have an extremely large fenced in back yard for the pups to run and play!! We work from home and we are able to care for your pups all day! We do let animals on the couch and the bed, but will crate if that’s what you prefer.
“I couldn’t be any happier with how Kaya’s day went today in the care of Marissa and her two adorable puppies! She was extremely communicative and her home and fenced yard were perfect. 100% recommend her! Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Gretchen was absolutely amazing with our dog, Molly. This was our first time using Rover, and naturally we were a little nervous leaving her with someone new, especially because Molly can be anxious and has a few special considerations. Gretchen immediately put us at ease. She was kind, attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about making Molly feel safe and comfortable in her home. We received updates and could tell Molly was being genuinely cared for, not just watched. Gretchen was also very patient with Molly’s quirks and made the entire experience stress-free for us. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and attentive.”
“Kayla is the best! Helped out with short notice and watched my two crazy Weims while I had some AC work done at the house. Peace of mind is a great thing and she definitely helped with that. Highly recommend her to all.”
“Paige was WONDERFUL! Very communicative and personable. She asked that I come 15–20 minutes early to discuss Dakota's routine, ask any questions, and tour her home and backyard. It made me feel super comfortable, and I appreciated her willingness to help. I will definitely book with her again!”
About: Whether you're heading out for a weekend or a longer trip, your dog will be in safe, loving hands. I offer personalized dog sitting and comfortable home-based boarding where your pup will enjoy plenty of attention, daily walks, playtime, and a calm environment. With a genuine love for animals and experience caring for dogs, I treat every fur guest my own —because your fur baby deserves nothing less. Care for my fur guest fits seamlessly into my routine because I work from home. This allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day, whether it's for feeding, potty breaks, walks, or just some comforting company. I’m able to maintain a calm and consistent environment where pets feel safe and cared for. Being home full-time means my fur guest will never be left alone for long, and I can easily adapt to their individual needs and routines. I maintain their regular routines as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, or special care instructions. My fur guest have access to cozy resting areas, safe indoor and outdoor spaces, and plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I also provide regular updates with photos or messages, so you always know how they are doing. My goal is to create a stress-free, happy stay that gives you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Hi I am Suzanne! I have cared for many dogs throughout the years of both friends and family members who are traveling out of town. I have a genuine love for dogs and will do everything within my power to foster a warm, inviting home away from home for your dog. I have experience walking, feeding, crating, and playing with dogs of many different breeds. I am the right home away from home for your pup if he/she loves being around attentive, nurturing family with children. I am a homeschool mom of three children, aged 6, 9, and 11. As a homeschool mom, I am home a large majority of the time. I am available and present weekdays and weekends to care for and spend quality time with your pup! Any pup in our home will be well-loved, played with, cuddled, and attended to in a kind, gentle way! While I am home, your pup will be able to freely wander our downstairs area and screened in porch. At bedtime and when I have to leave the house, I will crate your pup. I have a large yard and a great neighborhood to walk your dog frequently. I have a screened in porch for your pup to lounge in on beautiful days and a large downstairs area to ensure your dog has a comfortable place to stay and an indoor place to play ball and snuggle. I can accommodate small and medium dogs who are crate-trained. For fully-potty trained dogs, I have a downstairs area that I can safely accommodate smaller pups who are not crate-trained.
“Brandi and John were exceedingly accommodating and helpful! I needed last-minute daycare and I am so grateful. My dog was happy when I picked him up and they sent me pictures throughout the day. I highly recommend them!”
About: I sometimes feel like a dog/cat whisper. I have a very calm nature and I think dogs/cats can really pick up on this. I have had animals of my own but could no longer afford the monetary funds it takes to care for dogs and cats. I am a retired active senior citizen and I have a lot of spare time I would love to devote to dog/cat boarding or walking. When I do care for dogs/cats in my home, I try to make sure they feel I care for them and snuggle and hold them, if I am allowed by the animal. I always wait to see if they have sniffed me and that lets me know they are or are not accepting of me.
About: I don’t have any special skills but I treat every pet with care, patience, and attention. I’m reliable, I communicate, and I always follow instructions. I am full time student during the week so I don’t have a work schedule to get in the way of pet care. Not having a job means that my weekends are open and flexible. This means that I can give your pet my full attention during their stay with me. When I care for pets in my home I make sure that they are comfortable and I treat them as if they are my own. I follow their normal routine and special instructions given.
About: Hi there! My name is Kayla, and I’ve been a loving pet parent for over five years to my sweet Yorkipoo, Belle. She’s a 13-pound bundle of joy; she’s very shy, but also very sweet! Caring for Belle has given me firsthand experience with everything from daily walks and enrichment activities to specialized feeding schedules, administering medicine, and providing a calm, safe environment. For your peace of mind, I’m located just 2 minutes from both Banfield Pet Hospital and Knightdale Animal Hospital, so prompt care is always within reach if ever needed. I treat every pet like family and can’t wait to care for yours! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine! I work 100% from home Monday through Friday, which allows me to provide around-the-clock attention and care for pups throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, playtime, walks, or just some extra snuggles, I’m always nearby and available to keep your pet happy and comfortable. I’m also available for boarding and doggy day care needs on weekdays and weekends, so whether you’re heading out for the day or taking a longer trip, your pet will be in loving hands. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly apartment community with clean walking paths, plenty of green space, and a secure off-leash dog park perfect for playtime. Inside, my home is a calm, cozy, and safe space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I take extra care to create a peaceful environment that’s free from hazards and full of love. Whether your pet needs exercise, snuggles, or structured routines, I’m ready to provide the same level of love and attention I give Belle every day.
“Erica was absolutely wonderful with Missy! She was so gentle and caring, and I could tell Missy felt relaxed and happy in her care. I really appreciated Erica’s attention and kindness, and I’m definitely looking forward to booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid. Neighbors, friends and family have always left me in charge of the furry ones!

I will ensure the safety and well being of the animals, feeding them, bathing them, and anything else necessary for the super lived furry companions.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Hopkins on Rover is $35.28 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Hopkins 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 NC 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 1,223 sitters in Hopkins, 87% 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.
