“We have now left our boy with Jade a few times and Jade has been absolutely amazing with our pup! She is so caring and we know our boy is not the easiest, as loving as he is, and Jade always has good things to say which is all we can hope for! Thank you Jade. Looking forward to the next visit!”
About: Hi there! I’m Maria - a lifelong dog lover with a passion for caring for pups of all ages and personalities. Whether you’re heading out of town, working long hours, or just need an extra hand, I’m here to make sure your furry friend gets the love, attention, and care they deserve. Available daily for daily pet sitting or overnights. Whether you need care for your pet for just a few hours or extended periods of time my schedule is flexible. I work from home so I am always available to your pet. I have 2 acres of land in West Gloucester. I love to walk the neighborhood with the dogs and enjoy outdoor play time. I love to spend time with the pets
About: I treat every animal exactly as if they were my own. With over 15 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses, my background is deeply rooted in animal welfare. Growing up in Maryland, I volunteered at a local animal rescue, interned with an equine veterinary clinic, and served as a volunteer and instructor in equine therapy. I came to Boston for college and have resided here ever since! I am still an avid equestrian today, and this lifelong dedication to animals has shaped my approach to pet care: I am incredibly detail-oriented, highly observant, and bring infinite patience to every animal's unique needs. I grew up surrounded by large dogs—including three wonderful Labradors—as well as multiple cats. Recently, my husband, Johnny, and I moved to Marblehead, where we share our home with our two sweet cats, Ozzy and Willis. What to Expect When You Book With Me: Constant Companionship: As a working professional in the consulting industry who is fully remote, my flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable supervision. I ensure your pets receive lots of daytime companionship and are never left alone for more than 4-5 hours a day. Tailored Attention: Family and friends have always relied on me for meticulous care. I make it a priority to learn everything about your pet's routine, quirks, and needs to ensure they are happy and safe. Professional & Insured: As an established, fully independently insured pet care professional, I am always happy to discuss flexible care and scheduling arrangements that work best for your family. Reliability & Safety: I have my own reliable vehicle, allowing for complete flexibility with visits and peace of mind in the unlikely event of an emergency. Meet & Greets: Finding the right match is important! I am always happy to schedule a virtual or in-person meet-and-greet to ensure we are a mutual fit. Please note: For house sitting, I currently accept booking requests a maximum of 3 months in advance. Thank you for understanding! I work fully remote from my home. For house sitting, I use your house as a homebase to make your pet feel comfortable and used to their normal routine. I am able to drop in, house sit, and walk your furry friend, feed and play with your dog or cat, and everything in between (and of course take many pictures!)
“Fae and Joseph have watched Patton a few times now while we host large get togethers at our house, they are very friendly, respond promptly and have a nice clean yard for Pat to run around and have fun in. They also send videos and pictures of him playing which is great for peace of mind. I really wouldn't want anyone else to take care of our furry friend and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of someone to care for their pet.”
“Natali took such great care of our 11 month old puppy during his first overnight stay away from home. She was patient, communicative, and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Even though he was a little nervous from being in a new environment, she was incredibly understanding and attentive to his needs. We could tell he was well cared for and had a great time with Natali and Rocko. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
“Crystal did a wonderful job taking care of our two Australian shepherds, Aspen and Mordi. The boys were pooped by the time they got back and seemed like they had an absolute blast. Our one boy has epilepsy and needed to be pilled during their stay which occured flawlessly. We come to the area yearly and will be using Crystal again!”
“Beth was great and my dog came home a very happy pup! When we arrived, she had already familiarized herself with his diet instructions, which gave me peace of mind from the start. She also sent regular updates and a photo during the stay. We’ll definitely book with Beth again!”
About: I have taken care of my own dog for seven years now. I have also dog sat many times before and love all dogs. I am very good with different dogs and their skills and can work to your dogs needs. The first thing I do when I wake up is greet my dog. I will always have time to take care of our furry friends because they cant do it all themselves. I am very dependable when it comes to taking care of dogs. For my dog, I feed her everyday on time and take her outside when she needs and wants to go. Some dogs just like company and I can do that for them.
“Jennifer was so excited to meet Ruby and she clearly loves animals. He had a great day with her and her 2 little doggies. She even had gifts to send home with him. Highly recommend and Ruby will be thrilled to see her again soon!”
“Diaralyz and her family took such good care of our puppy! He got to interact and socialize properly and the best part was receiving pictures and videos of him playing and living his best life. We highly recommend Diaralyz and we will be coming again with our little dog.”
“Our dog Beebo had an amazing time at Jodi’s. She enjoyed running in her vast fenced backyard and playing with the other dogs of the house. Jodi is friendly, reliable and communicative. We won’t hesitate booking her again in the future.”
About: Hello! I'm a lifelong animal lover who has been both a dog and cat owner for more than 20 years. Caring for pets has always been a meaningful part of my life, and I understand how important it is to know your furry family members are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I currently do not have any pets of my own, which gives me the flexibility to help other pet owners enjoy their summer travels with peace of mind. I especially believe that pets are often happiest when they can remain in their own familiar environment. Staying in their own home helps reduce stress and allows them to maintain their normal routines, providing a greater sense of comfort and ease. I am dependable, timely, and clean, and I take pride in treating both your pets and your home with the utmost respect. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I will provide attentive, personalized care tailored to their needs. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and helping make your time away as worry-free as possible. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to accommodate your pet's specific needs and routine. Whether it's daily walks, feeding schedules, medication reminders, playtime, or check-ins at particular times of day, I will do my best to work around the schedule that keeps your pet comfortable and happy. I understand that consistency is important for pets, and I am committed to maintaining their normal routine while you're away. Simply let me know your preferences and your pet's needs, and I will be happy to accommodate them. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care that gives both you and your pet peace of mind. I enjoy caring for pets in their own homes because it allows them to remain in a familiar environment with their established routines. I believe this minimizes stress and disruption, helping pets feel more comfortable, secure, and relaxed while their owners are away. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me. I take the time to learn your pet's habits, preferences, and daily schedule so I can provide care that is consistent with what they are used to. Whether it's feeding times, walks, playtime, medication, or special instructions, I am committed to maintaining the level of care and attention you provide for your animal every day. I also understand the responsibility that comes with caring for your home and your pets. You can count on me to be dependable, respectful, attentive, and communicative throughout my time with your furry family members.
“I highly recommend Liza for doggie care. My little Chihuahua Dachshund, Chico was very well taken care of for the day while I was at work. Although Chico was a little shy, he was very comfortable spending the day with Liza and that is very important for me to know. Liza sent several photos of Chico to me during the day which was very comforting for me. I look forward to having Liza take care of Chico!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Manchester
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 2,550 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Manchester. 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 Manchester 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 MA 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 2,550 sitters in Manchester, 86% 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.
