“Our 6 month old Bonnie had a wonderful time with her first Rover experience for day care. We loved the pictures and videos sent to ensure Bonnie was having a great time. Will definitely be a return customer!”
“Dennis & Lynn were very pleasant to meet! They have a beautiful home with a big yard for my pup to play in. I received updates throughout my pups stay. Nevie had so much fun and played so hard she slept the majority of the evening when she got home. I booked again with Dennis and Lynn and my puppy Nevie will be so excited to return to visit!”
“Jacklyn was great! Sent lots of (very cute!) pictures, walked McCoy, and made sure he got along with her own dog. McCoy was always happy to see her (and her dog) when we dropped him off. Jacklyn was also very responsive to us (e.g. when we had to modify our arrival/pick up time) which made our lives very easy.”
“Joyce and her husband were wonderful with our Coco. They know dogs and worked so well with ours. He has a bit of separation anxiety, but Joyce and her dogs took care of that immediately. Loved the large fenced back yard and the fact that her 2 dogs were small so ours wasn’t intimated. Looking forward to working with her again.”
“Kristina is an amazing furbaby sitter, and we are so grateful for the care and attention she gives to Enzo every time he stays with her. Enzo is a regular with Kristina, which says a lot about the trust and comfort we feel leaving him in her care. She is dependable, kind, and truly treats him like family. We always appreciate the updates, love, and patience she gives him, and it gives us peace of mind knowing he is safe, happy, and well cared for. Enzo always comes home relaxed and happy, and we highly recommend Kristina to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter! 🐾”
“Anthony has been so wonderful to work with for our fur baby! He is very caring and lets us k is how her day went as well as how she ate etc. We love the pictures of her playing with his pups and napping and the best endorsement was how excited she was next time we took her. My husband said she could hardly wait to get through the door! Thank you, Anthony! 🐾”
“Polly was sidelined due to a leg injury for the last few months and missed her regular daycare visits with Milo & Marisol. Yesterday was her first day back and it did not disappoint! Milo and Polly picked up right where they left off, and Marisol made sure Polly didn’t overdo it or risk re-injury. I am so very grateful for Marisol’s care and diligence. We’re looking forward to our next visit!”
“Maria is amazing!! Our pups got to spend the day going for walks and enjoying the company of other dogs in thr comfort of Maria's home! I think one of our dogs actually got mad that she had to leave 😉”
“Our dog was instantly at home the moment he met Kathie. We had never left him with anyone before and this turned out to be a great experience. Now we know we can go away overnight and our dog will be right at home at Kathie’s house!”
“She is wonderful! Takes great care of our 9 week old puppy, and is very considerate of the fact that he is not fully vaccinated so she keeps him separate from other dogs. She is awesome!”
“Our Australian Labradoodle loves her time with Odalys! We have her set for weekly doggy day care. She is so happy at drop off and exhausted at pick up. The best of both worlds. We feel like she is treated as part of their family and are especially grateful for the superb care of our pup! Highly recommend!”
“Noelle is the best. She was so kind and accommodating to my last-minute day care request, and my dog Peaches really warmed up to her and her dogs. I appreciate that she shared updates and was so easy to communicate with, and Peaches looked like she was having a blast in all the photos Noelle sent. Peaches was so happy and relaxed when I picked her up. If we’re in the area again, I’d definitely book her again!”
“We’ve been taking our puppy to Aliesha for a few weeks now and it’s been absolutely amazing. Our pup has very high anxiety and struggles in big daycares. Once we found Aliesha so much of our own stress has been relieved knowing Bruno is so happy at her place and his overall happiness has greatly increased. She provides enrichment activities, lots of yard playtime and even takes him to the nearby creek! I’m so grateful for her kindness to Bruno and for supporting him so well. HIGHLY recommend her for daycare!”
“This was my 1st time with Daniel & Joelle, who were very accommodating. My pup did a day long to get used to them & see if she'd be a good fit for a week upcoming boarding. Everything went well. Meelo is a very sweet old guy, which is great for my pup who's been bullied & is shy at first. Though it was her 1st day & so somewhat anxiety provoking to be left, she still seemed relaxed when I picked her up & asked everyone for scratches & pets during the day. It also seemed she took a liking to their daughter Esther:) She'll try a week there a few weeks from now.”
“Paul accepted my last minute booking request. I had to adjust my drop off/pick up times & he was flexible with that. My dog Eddie can have a bit of anxiety when he isn't with his family. When he was picked up he was very relaxed & happy; so I know he was well taken care of. I will definitely use Paul again.”
“Molly has been amazing to my girl! She hosts her daily for doggy daycare with her crew of dogs and Finley fits right in. Throughout the day, Molly sends pictures to update me & even goes above and beyond by dropping Finley off home on the nights I work late. I am ecstatic that Finley gets to socialize with some furry friends during the day and I don’t have to worry about her while I’m working. I highly recommend Molly as she is passionate in caring for dogs and is very accommodating with her services!”
“Shannon agreed to take care of Bailey for us last minute, and was extremely accommodating with our ever changing plans while in Seattle. Thank you for caring for my pup and being patient with me! Would definitively use again when visiting Seattle!”
About: I've spent my entire life with large dogs, and I have extensive experience understanding their behaviors and body language. While I love small dogs too, my expertise lies primarily with larger breeds. I've worked in both shelters and clinics for several years and have had the privilege of assisting a few mama dogs in delivering healthy litters. Experienced with puppies, seniors, medication administration, and dogs requiring extra patience and individualized care. Your dog will have a great time while you're away! (Preferably dogs that are friendly with cats.) I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day to ensure your beloved pets are cared for safely and comfortably while you’re away. I can let your dog out for potty breaks in the yard and on walks as needed. I also have a kennel/crate available if they prefer a quiet space to relax. My home is spacious, providing plenty of room to play indoors and a full yard to play in. For pets that are comfortable around cats, they’ll have the opportunity to interact with my friendly resident cats.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lakeland South
Our dog Denali is super skittish around people she has not met before, but Sara knew just what to do to make her feel right at home. Sara brought out her dog Toby and together they led Denali in for a day of puppy playfulness. My husband and I enjoyed the pictures, videos, and messages Sara sent reassuring us she was o.k. We would definitely rebook!
Booked for three days, and everything went fantastic, She took great care of my dog and kept me updated. My dog was walked on a consistent schedule, fed on time and got plenty of attention. I could tell she takes the job seriously, I appreciate the photos and quick check in through out the day. Her place is beautiful and my dog seems to be happy. I will definitely book Minji again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring.
Such caring and kind people!!! We met their dogs too and they were very very cute and gentle dogs! We will definitely ask for our Luna to be cared again! So glad we found them on Rover! Thank you so much! Sent us alot od photos too and we can tell that our dog had a great time!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Lakeland South on Rover is $36.63 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 Lakeland South 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 3,927 sitters in Lakeland South, 88% 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.
