About: With 18 years of dedicated pet care experience, I bring both professional expertise and a lifelong passion for dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. I am a Certified Service and Therapy Dog Trainer and hold Dog CPR and First Aid certification through the Red Cross, ensuring your pup’s safety and well-being is always my top priority. Beyond training, I actively volunteer at a local animal shelter, giving me hands-on experience with dogs who have unique needs and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior companions to those with special needs, I have worked with them all—providing everything from structured training to loving, reliable care. Whether it’s dog walking, daycare, or drop-in visits, I approach every pup as if they were my own, blending knowledge, patience, and heart into every interaction. Pet care isn’t just part of my routine—it is my routine. I work with dogs all day, every day, from training and walks to playtime and enrichment. My schedule is completely centered around caring for dogs, which means I can provide plenty of time, consistency, and attention for your pup whenever they need it. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure each pup feels safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, dogs get plenty of exercise, playtime, and cuddles, along with a structured routine that helps them feel at ease. I keep things clean, cozy, and tailored to each dog’s needs—whether that’s a quiet nap space or room to romp and play. When I care for pets in their own home, I follow your instructions carefully to maintain their normal routine. I treat your dog just like I do my own—with the utmost love and care. From fresh food and water to exercise, potty breaks, and lots of affection, I make sure your pup is safe, happy and comfortable.
“I can't even tell you how wonderful Tolley and Tom are. Not only did they take care of our crazy pup who had a great time there, they went above and beyond. I will be using them again and highly recommend to anyone who needs these types of services. Thank you Tolley and Tom for the great experience.”
“Our dog has gone to Zachary’s several times for doggy daycare and he loves it! Each time he comes home happy and tired from playing with his dogs. Would definitely recommend!”
“Stephanie takes such great care of my little girl! I can tell because she was excited to run up to the front door each day! I will absolutely continue to use Stephanie as I’m in the area for work.”

“My Gus was very comfortable during a day long stay at Ramona's home. He's a rambunctious six month old and Ramona handled him calmly and didn't get rattled by his 'puppiness.' Thank you!”
“Tiffany was amazing!! My dog gets a little nervous when left at daycares but Tiffany made him feel right at home. The updates showed that he was relaxed and happy right away. Not only did Tiffany do a great job in taking care of him, she was also one of the most communicative daycares I've come across. You can really tell how experienced she is and how much she loves animals”
“Mariia was amazing! She accommodated me last minute and was super understanding and easy to communicate with. I was just thankful to have someone to even watch my pup but she gave her amazing above and beyond care- taking her on a 45mn walk and sending me updates so i wouldn't worry. Mariia is very caring and professional and I would absolutely recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pet. Thanks Mariia!”
“Kayla was absolutely amazing! From the meet and greet, to the very first time my baby was away from his family, to the pick up after the exciting first day! She welcomed him not only into her home, but into her family! I’m so incredibly grateful!!!”
“Swetha and her family took amazing care of Snowy! They treated him like their own and were incredibly patient and attentive. I really appreciated the frequent updates — every few hours they would send multiple photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Snowy looked happy and comfortable the entire time. I would highly recommend Swetha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
About: My husband, Keith and I love dogs and have had them all of our lives. Our beloved rescue dog passed in April. We miss having a dog to love on and play with. Your dog(s)will be treated like they are part of our family. My husband and I make a great team as he likes to take the dogs for daily walks no matter the weather and I like to play fetch, or work on commands. I work from home full-time while my husband works from home 3 days a week so we are here on site daily. We are active people and love to go on walks ourselves so we will take the dog with us. There are no kids or other pets in our home. We have an invisible fence so we will ensure all dogs are taken out on a leash when they need to go outside.
About: I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of various kinds of animals, dogs and cats . I Will respect your love for your animal that you’ve trusted me with. I am Retired, enjoy walking so why not walk a dog? I’m very responsible, and if I say I’ll be there to care for your dog, I will be there. I live in a great neighbourhood with sidewalks. I have no problem taking a dog on a leash to a nearby park. I ALWAYS pick up after dog.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Lodi
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 399 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Lodi. 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 Lodi 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 OH 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 399 sitters in Lodi, 93% 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.
