“DeeAnna is absolutely amazing with my two pups! From the moment we met, I could tell ahead she genuinely cared and had a great energy with my dogs. She sends regular updates, photos, and always makes sure both pups are happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they are in loving, responsible hands. My dogs come home relaxed and clearly well-loved — always the best sign! I’m so grateful for the extra care and attention DeeAnna gives them. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and communicative. We’ll definitely be booking again! 🐶💗”
“Crystal provides a safe and happy place for my dogs. Obi and Haiku return tired and contented. They've had a fun day or afternoon playing with Crystal's dogs. Definitely recommend.”
“Marshel was amazing! Took incredible care of our pup. Would highly recommend. She was able to be flexible and work with our ever changing schedule. Couldn’t ask for anybody better!”
“Teddy's first experience at Doggy Daycare with Annalyn, her kiddos and new best buds, Charlie and Wilson couldn't have gone better. He got a lot of TLC, snuggles, walks and attention. Teddy is looking forward to his next playdate with Da Boyz!”
About: I have loved and cared for dogs my entire life, growing up with a German Shepherd and now sharing my home with a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd who has epilepsy. Caring for a dog with medical needs has given me hands-on experience with strict medication schedules, monitoring health closely, and maintaining a calm, safe environment. Additionally, my experience with high-energy herding breeds means I understand the importance of mental stimulation, structured exercise, and clear communication for dogs of all personalities. Because I work full-time from home, caring for pets seamlessly fits into my daily routine. Your dog will never be left alone for long stretches. My flexible schedule allows me to offer frequent potty breaks, scheduled feeding, playtime, and regular walks throughout the day. Whether hosting boarders or stopping by for visits, I can provide consistent companionship, supervision, and immediate attention whenever it is needed. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I treat every pet as if they were my own by strictly adhering to your established routines, feeding schedules, and safety instructions. At my home, dogs can safely run and play in a secure, fully fenced backyard, balanced with a calm, hazard-free indoor space for relaxation. My Australian Shepherd is friendly offering great company, but I am also happy to utilize crate separation or quiet spaces if your pup prefers downtime.
About: We are a loving family of 4 that wants to share our love to your pets! We have a 2 year old shih tzu, Louie. Louie gets along with other dogs and enjoy playtime. I’m a stay at home mom to two girls, 8 & 5 year old. I am home mostly all day everyday to care for your pup! I can go on walks every few hours. I have a huge yard and a walking trail right in front of my house. Quiet and low-key neighborhood. I have a small, but cozy home :)
“Lulu just moved back. Home with me after living with my ex husband the last 3 years. She is very used to other dogs but the anxiety of moving and all the new things and then taking her to doggie daycare while I'm at work must have really sparked her anxiety. Janelle and Travis took extra special care of her and went above and beyond as they always do. We love Janelle and Travis and highly recommend them for your doggie daycare needs!”
“Yvonne was great with Pluto who can be a bit shy and anxious with new sitters; suffice it to say he didn’t want to leave both days he was with her and had so much fun snuggling and going on walks- she was so patient in accommodating my last minute request too so we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Kathy and her family took great care of our little dog with a big personality! Major Tom is a rescue who generally has a lot of separation anxiety, but he was happy and relaxed in Kathy's home. My husband and I are SO relieved to find this family so we can enjoy our time away without being preoccupied worrying about our little buddy.”
“Our dog was happy when we dropped her off, showing that she had good memories from her past stay. She was relaxed, tired but happy when we picked her up, so had plenty of play time outside. She has separation anxiety and some insecurities, so it was great to see how comfortable she is there. Very happy with the daycare.”
“Lanuola was amazing and Poscow enjoyed his stay very much! She shared multiple pics and played with Poscow throughout the day. Overall, an amazing stay for Poscow. Would be my first preference to take care of Poscow!!”
About: I’ve taken care of many types of dogs and cats from pugs, to raising my 4 year old English cream golden retriever from 2 months to now, to a Bernese mountain dog! Friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets when I am away and I’m all for it! Let me know how I can best serve you and your furry family members! I’m currently attending Yale’s PA program. Most days vary depending on the schedule but I am available for potty breaks. During the evening I will be home and available. Weekends I love to spend outside and would be more than happy to take your pet along! Message me with questions! I have quite a bit of skill with a range of dogs and have learned quite a bit with my golden from puppy age to now (who is rambunctious as you can imagine!) I care for other peoples pets as I would my own.
“Lana is great with our Lily. Now that we've been going back regularly, Lily gets so excited to get out of the car when we pull up and she greets Lana and her family with gusto. Definitely recommend her day care and boarding services. ❤️”
“Our pup Artie had a great time here while I was at work for a couple days. Vaishali sent me pictures of Artie throughout the day which I really appreciated. I can tell Vaishali and her family were very attentive and clearly cared about making Artie feel safe and comfortable. Thank you for the great experience!”
“Wonderful sitters. They really worked at understanding and respecting Deja's sweet and spicy personality. Deja had a great time and I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care.”
About: I am from a family of dog lovers and dog rescuers! I have grown up with mostly big doggies, but have often times taken care of my friends'/neighbors' little pups too. There isn't a day, where I won't stop and just chit chat with a pup, that merely walks by me! I also owned a pet-sitting and house-sitting business, for 23 years, so I have helped care for some doggies, their entire lives. I love them all so much! I'm currently unemployed, but have a company that I can run from anywhere. I have great flexibility and time to play with your fur babe!
“Krysten is the best! We feel so safe leaving our Lucy with her. Krysten is very prompt, extremely responsive, and very friendly. We've used her to walk and board Lucy over the last few months and have no complaints.”

DeeAnna was wonderful with our Teddy Boi. She was mindful of his hip dysplasia, ensuring Teddy could safely walk up and down the stairs in their backyard. She supervised play with her adorable pup, took Teddy for a walk, and even introduced a challenging new puzzle that kept him busy and engaged. Teddy came home happy and exhausted. Bonus for sharing pics while we were away. Highly recommend her services. We will definitely be using DeeAnna in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Lake Stevens on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,837 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Lake Stevens. 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 Lake Stevens 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 WA 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 2,837 sitters in Lake Stevens, 89% 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.
