“Britt has taken great care of my Penny puppy this week at daycare! She clearly cares about dogs and provides a fun and enriching environment for them. Penny is high energy, and always comes home happily exhausted.”
About: One of the best feelings in the world is being greeted by a dog’s wagging tail—a pure expression of happiness, joy, and love that instantly brightens the day. I grew up with dogs, and from an early age, I learned how much they truly complete a home. I always accommodate my clients' animals daily routines, because their comfort comes first. It’s never about my schedule—it’s about maintaining what they know and trust. Just because their owners are away doesn’t mean their routine should change. I love taking pictures, so you'll have great photos of your animals while you are away. This is my full time job. Nice days don’t go to waste!!! Your pet(s) and I will be outside playing, running around, and a walk around the neighborhood (if allowed). I respect every home by keeping it tidy and cleaning up after myself. If you need a good spring clean and organizing, my services are always available: Dust, vacuum, organize, picking up poop, taking the trash out, grabbing the mail, watering plants, picking weeds… you name it, I will do it!
About: I am 36 years old and I have had animals my whole life growing up of all different sizes. I love all animals like they are my own. I am a dog owner myself so I can pick up on certain behaviors. I am able to give them medication my dog has allergies and I give him medicine daily. I am prior military with an active security clearance so you can trust me with your home and your beloved family member(dog). They will be well taken care of and have a great time in my care. Animals love unconditionally which is why I love them so dearly. I look forward to meeting your fuzzy four legged companion. I am available at my home nights and weekends. During the day I will come home at lunch to take the dogs outside. They won’t go longer than 4 hours. I will treat your pet like my own. Which is like a king. My dog sleeps in bed with me or on the couch under blankets. Wherever they are most comfortable.
“Our dog LOVES doggy-daycar-day at Haley's house. Her pups are the perfect play pals. Her yard is huge, fenced, and safe. She even lets the dogs hang out indoors. So far, we are very happy!”
“Natalie did an amazing job taking care of Storm! He came home tired, satisfied, and safe. She sent me plenty of updates and photos and overall gave me a lot of confidence that my dog will be safe in her hands whenever I need a sitter! I will definitely be using her again!”
“Elise was the perfect sitter for my high energy Malinois! Her dog and mine got along great and even got to go to the dog park together. She was very accommodating to my last minute request and early drop off/late pickup (0600-1700). Even after my dog had an accident due to starting her heat cycle (which Elise notified me of) she was still very friendly and helpful with updates and Barleys well being. At the end of the day my dog was exhausted by the time I picked her up and ready to sleep! I highly recommend Elise and would definitely trust her again!”
About: I have had dogs, all my life, from Chihuahuas up to German Shepards. I’ve had dogs who have had diabetes and cancer from the time they were puppies up to adult seniors. My dogs are my family, and they are spoiled rotten! I am retired and stay at home most of the time. The dogs are allowed to roam through the house as long as they behave themselves and they get plenty of treats exercise when playing outside. The only time my dog is kennel is when I need to go to a doctor appointment. My dog is a Weimaraner and black lab mix. She is a very hyper and loving dog who loves to play fetch with the ball. She is longing for a playmate, since her best friend passed away a few months ago.
“Katie was so great! Super easy to work with, excellent communication. I have long shifts at work needing to drop by dog off at 7am to 6pm for doggy day care and he seems so happy and safe with Katie and her family. Really good decision and so glad she is taking care of my pup!”
About: As a pet parent to two dogs and a cat, I know firsthand that every animal has their own personality, quirks, and needs. Whether they’re full of energy, a little shy, or just want someone to snuggle with, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at! I’m also a mom to a little girl who absolutely LOVES animals! She’s growing up surrounded by furry friends and shares my love for all things fourlegged. Of course, any interactions with pets are always supervised, and I understand that not every animal is comfortable around little ones. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic training reinforcement, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. You can absolutely expect pictures and updates while you’re away! I’m a stay-at-home mom and full-time online college student, so my schedule is pretty flexible! Between schoolwork, spending time with my daughter, and caring for our own little zoo, animals are already a big part of my everyday routine. I’m home quite a bit throughout the week, which gives me plenty of opportunities for potty breaks, playtime, walks, and extra attention. I love having a routine but also understand that every pet has their own schedule, and I’m happy to work with yours! Whether your fur baby needs some company during the day or a little extra TLC while you’re away, I’d love to help! I know every animal is different. Some want to be your shadow all day, and others need a little time to warm up. I’m happy to give them whatever space or attention they need. I’ll always make sure introductions are done carefully, especially with my daughter and our pets. I also know how nerve racking it can be leaving your animals with someone else. I’ll follow whatever routines or instructions you leave me, and I’m more than happy to send pictures and updates so you know how they’re doing!
“Ashley took our Honey last minute, let us be there for the introduction of our dogs, and kept us updated! She also gave honey a bath after she got a little dirty playing! We highly recommend ashley for your dog sitting needs!”
“She is amazing! She absolutely loves every animal in any radius of her. She will spoil your fur baby as if they are her own. I could not recommend more! Xena loves going over in the morning and gets so excited when asked if ready to go to day care.”
“We just used Julia for our first time and she did not disappoint! She was very kind to our pup and gave a nice big report on him at the end of the visit. Julia is very sweet and has a big heart for animals. I appreciate her honesty and will definitely use her again in the future.”
About: We are an animal loving household! We have our own 2 precious pups and have loved many more throughout our lives. I am a stay at home mom so the dogs are hardly ever left alone and let out regularly. My daughter is a professional animal entertainment and loves to play fetch and run wild with the pups. Before joining the military my husband was a Vet Tech so you can count on him for proper feedings, medication, and any emergencies that may arise. I have a completely free schedule as I am currently a stay at home mom. Outside of loving on my own babies, My favorite pastime is hanging out with others. I am open to drop ins, walks, and boarding if your pups want to come hang out with mine! I live in a good neighborhood where we take nightly walks apart from the time spent in our fenced in back yard! Fetch is a fan favorite in my house so we spend large portions of our day playing this game. I love dog snuggles so you can believe they’re getting all the lovin they need plus some when they hang out with me!
About: I have grown up with dogs since I was a baby. My family has had mutts, vizslas, and hounds. I currently have two dogs myself: a black lab mix and a hound mix. My dogs are one of the best parts of life, and I love them like family members. I am reliable and trustworthy, have my own transportation. I love dogs like family and I would be honored to care for your pets! I’m a stay at home mom right now with a baby so my schedule is open during the days. I can do drop ins and walks. I am not available for over nights. In a clients home I care for the pets by letting them out, feeding them, playing with them, and doing what the owner asks me to do. If they request to be walked I will walk them. I feed them and keep them on the schedule that the owner tells me to keep their routine as consistent as possible. I can also administer medication such as pills.
“Nicole was awesome! I needed doggie day care last minute,and she was available, it was such a wonderful experience! She was so flexible and my puppy loved her. He didn’t wanna leave! I will most definitely be using her again! She kept me up to date with pictures and everything I can’t thank you enough!!”
“Darcy was awesome! She updated me every hour about my baby. Especially since I was a bit nervous. I would definitely book with her again. She made my baby feel at home 💓”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Manly is $28 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $42 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 291 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Manly. 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 Manly 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.
As of October 2026, there are 291 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NC. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 NC 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
