“I've had my dog Lana in doggy daycare now for a few days. So far Lana is loving it. She comes home tired and happy! There's already an improvement in her socialization skills, especially when I walk her. She isn't as agitated when a dog walks near us and is calm. Love Patti! She provides updates and pictures and you can tell she knows dogs. I will keep taking Lana to Patti's doggy daycare!! ”
“I can confidently say Erena is the best dogsitter out there. She keeps updating with adorable pictures and is incredibly responsive. My dog is always happy and well-cared-for in her hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12. We have had family dogs growing up and we raised since puppies. I have also dog sat and taken care many friends/ family dogs of all ages. I was a nanny in high school and college and would take care of their dogs as well. I have experience with dog sitting/boarding up to 3 dogs at once. My days are very flexible and I will have plenty of time to feed, play with, and walk dogs at any hour on the days of the week I am available. My husband also works from home full time and loves to help out with walks/playing! We have a fenced in yard. We do not have a dog of our own so your dog will get all of the attention! We have plenty of room to fit a crate if necessary. We also have a gate to fence off the upstairs part of the house if necessary as well.
“11 month puppy stayed for daycare . She enjoyed running around with other dogs who stayed on that day.Mrs. Mary shared picture right after I drop her to let me know Mochi is ok without mom! At the end of daycare I got 3-4 pictures with coment”
About: Hi! I’m a caring and reliable dog walker and sitter with a deep love for animals and hands-on experience as a proud pet parent to my sweet 8-year-old Maltipoo. I treat every dog like my own—with patience, love, and lots of tail-wagging fun. Whether your pup needs a daily walk or a cozy home while you’re away, you can count on me for safe, personalized care. I’m here to give your furry friend the attention and care they deserve. Safety, comfort, and tail wags guaranteed! I work from home, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pup! I’m available for dog walks any day between 10 AM and 9 PM, and I also offer boarding any day of the week. Whether your dog needs a midday walk or a cozy place to stay while you’re away, I’ve got you covered with lots of attention, playtime, and love. I live in a quiet cul-de-sac, perfect for calm walks. Dogs are always kept on-leash outside, and I take them to fenced-in parks for safe playtime. At home, they get a clean, cozy space with lots of care and supervision.
About: I'm Victor a homeowner in Hoffman Estates with a fenced backyard and a genuine love for dogs. Your dog gets my full attention: structured walks, a safe yard to run, and a calm home environment. I keep owners updated with photos and check-ins throughout the day. Small things matter to me because your dog matters to you. I'm currently working full-time and have time to walk dogs after 6 p.m., I'm available on weekends as well upon request. Weekends availability if needed. I can responsibly walk your dog without distractions, that means not checking my cellphone every minute during the walk. If house sitting is needed, I am a home owner with fenced back yard and empty unfurnished basement.
“Rhondarose is my “not so secret weapon” in navigating my day to day! She is flexible, responsible, caring, and an absolute gem. Clover loves being there with her and the pups, and it warms my heart to know that she is very well taken care of.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!
About: I love animals. I have loved, played with, nursed, and fed any kind of dog you an imagine. Im also comfortable around cats considering they tend be independent and communicative in their own way. I genuinely enjoy the process of training and nurturing animals. I have experience caring for newborn puppies and dogs with health issues as well as making natural and organic meals for dietary needs. I believe patience , affection, and repetition are the recipe to connecting with our all of our furry friends. Please do not hesitate to contact me for any additional questions. I work from home so pet care wouldn’t disrupt my routine at all. And I would be able to tend to a dog with special needs. I have a fenced in yard and personal fenced in patio off of my kitchen. It allows your buddy to get some fresh air in between walks and be secure
“Sue has been watching our pup Archie for a while with her daughter and does an amazing job. She treats him like her own giving us piece of mind that our pup is safe and happy while we are at work. We also appreciate the socialization he’s gotten meeting some other pups while at day care. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sue to anyone!”
About: My journey with Rover began approximately 8 years ago and it's been a delight to meet and care for furry babies when their parents were in need of a responisible and trusted caretaker. At that time, my Lola, was just as excited to befriend and play with pals. As my Lola grew older, she developed medical issues and my attention and all the time I could give,was directed only towards her. Therefore, I took a pause to spend time with her and give her all I could. Her time, to join the rest of angel friends, came on December 17th, 2025. I came back to Rover simply because I miss the company of the most pure soul and my best friend of 13 years. I know how important it is to leave your pet in good care, cater to your best friend just as your own family and hope to meet them soon.
“Patricia was wonderful!! My dog Hubble had a fabulous stay with her and her pup. The dogs are older and looked alike so the pictures she sent were so cute - like two little old men. I will definitely book her again!”
“I was very nervous about leaving my over-anxious, high-maintenance rescue baby with someone for the very first time, but Marta was amazing. She made both me and him feel at ease and provided a great day-time stay! Already booking her overnight for our vacation in January. Thank you!!”
“Christine is awesome! So friendly and responsive, and my pup seemed very comfortable and not stressed at all, despite this being his first visit with Christine. Will definitely be returning in the future! 🐶🐾”
About: For the past 8 years, I have been providing off-and-on sitting, boarding, and walking care for various relatives' dogs. Through caring for family pets, ranging from energetic Boxers to gentle Cockapoos, I have gained extensive, hands-on experience handling different temperaments, routines, and unique canine behaviors. While household allergies mean I am unable to have a full-time dog of my own, opening up my schedule to part-time pet sitting allows me to bring my passion for dogs into my daily life. This setup works beautifully for my clients, as it means your dog receives 100% of my focused attention and care during their time with me, without competing for space with a resident pet. Because I am currently doing pet care full-time, my schedule is highly flexible and open. I am available throughout the day for morning, midday, and evening walks or drop-in visits, seven days a week. This open availability means I can easily accommodate your dog’s specific routine, feeding times, and potty schedule without rush. Whether you need a reliable midday walker while you are at the office, or a flexible sitter for last-minute weekend plans, I am here to provide consistent, dedicated care when you need it most. Safety on Walks & Drop-Ins Safety is my absolute top priority. When walking your dog, I practice active situational awareness—I monitor the environment for triggers like loud traffic, bicycles, or off-leash dogs well before they become an issue. I use a secure, two-handed leash grip and never let your dog off-leash in public spaces. If your dog is sensitive or easily spooked, I am happy to take quieter routes and use positive reinforcement to keep them feeling safe and secure. My Home Environment (For Short-Term Boarding) I live in a clean, smoke-free home with a secure, fully fenced yard where your dog can safely stretch their legs under my direct, 100% supervision. I do not have any resident dogs or cats, meaning your pup will enjoy a peaceful environment without the stress of competing for space. We do share our home with a few securely housed reptiles (a Ball Python, a DeKay's Brown Snake, and two leopard geckos) who live strictly inside their locked enclosures, completely out of reach of guest dogs. Because we manage a saliva allergy in our household, my home is kept exceptionally clean, well-maintained, and structured. We maintain excellent boundaries: guest dogs are kept out of bedrooms and are safely crated during bedtime or if I ever need to step out for a brief moment. Your dog will receive a wonderful balance of structure, safety, and a whole lot of love.
“Kristina was absolutely fantastic. This was the first time we used a sitter for our little guy and Kristina made sure he was comfortable and gave him enough time to adjust. She was very flexible with timings as well.”

It is hard to find a sitter during the holidays so I am very happy to find Vijaya! My senior poodle had a great time with some new canine friends in Vijaya’s spacious home. Vijaya took great care of her and even took her for a walk in the neighborhood. Throughout the day, I received photos updates which I appreciate very much. We trust Vijaya with our precious pup and will certainly board with Vijaya again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Inverness on Rover is $34.24 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 3,731 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Inverness. 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 Inverness 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 IL 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.

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.
