“Sana was amazing with Jesse! She really got to know him, and I could tell from the photos and messages that Jesse was feeling safe and cared for.

If you are looking for.a reliable, caring and professional pet sitter, I highly recommend Sana!”

About: We are a dog-less home since our dog passed about a year ago. I sure do love having visitors, and a dog to love while they are here with me! We adopted our dog 14 years ago at 5 months old, and for the past 10 years I have been very involved with fostering and volunteering for a local rescue. This has given me so much experience with many different dog personalities and helped me learn how to best introduce them to a new environment. I have so much more knowledge about dog behaviors in general since fostering. I have fostered 30+ dogs thus far, handled at adoption shows, transported dogs to vet visits and selected adopters for my fosters. I feel very qualified to give your dog all the care and love they need and deserve while you are away! I am home during the day, and I am very happy to have your dog here to love and spoil while they are in my care. Your dog will always have plenty of love and attention when they are with me, and their needs will always be met. When they are here they are family! I am retired and home all day. If your dog likes to sleep in a room with someone, they can either sleep on the bed with me or on their bed or in their crate in the same room with me We are in a townhome with a walkout patio. I love to spend time outside with the dogs, and they are always secure with a leash or tie out cable. I am always with them. We are very careful about doors opening, and people coming in and out. Your pet is safe with me.
About: I have had dogs most of my life. From my childhood dog to the ones I raised as an adult. I have potty-trained dogs to use a bell to indicate they have to go out, taught them to back away from table food, and to give up stolen items. I will treat your dog lovingly and as if they are my own. I am mostly retired and home the majority of the day. The dog will go no longer than 4 hours without a potty break, and most days it will be shorter than that. Your pet will be the only one in the house with me. I block off my stairs so the dog is always very close and mostly within eyesight.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from puppies to seniors. Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve been caring for dogs for over 25 years. My last dog Barney had passed away recently due to an old age and illness. I’ve decided to help others care for their furry family members while they’re away on vacation or traveling. I remember how hard it was for me to leave my pup with a stranger. I can assure you, when you entrust me with your dog I will treat him like my own. They will get lots of love and all the care they need. My former dog had diabetes because of that, I’m skilled at administering insulin shots as well as other meds. I’m at stay at home mom, which means I’m always home and ready to play with your pup and make sure your dog feels loved and secure when you’re away. My kids are at school during the day, which allows me a ton of flexibility. I can take your dog for walks or Pup Cup runs whenever we feel like it. I have a fenced in yard which means your dog can have as many bathroom breaks as they need. I also enjoy going out for walks and I would love a four legged friend to keep me company. I have 3 boys who grew up with dogs and have the same passion for animals as their mom. My kids are very gentle with animals, and were taught to give dogs space when the animal needs it. I recognize that oftentimes dogs will need some time to acclimate to their new environment. I’m very patient and will give your dog all the space they may need to feel comfortable. I typically do not use a crate unless that is your preference. Dogs are welcome to snuggle on the couch and jump on the bed if they choose to.
“Maricela took care of Toby for 4 days and she was great! Toby was very happy and excited to greet Maricela every morning. Maricela took Toby for a walk every day and she sent some great pictures too. Thank you for taking good care of Toby. I would recommend Maricela for good, home care.”
About: I been taking of pets since in high school from my own to my neighbors. I love being around animals.it’s a joy to be able to care for pets. There will be at least 2-3 walks a day along side of taking them out to potty. Your pet will be teeter like part of the family , spoiling them with lots of goodies and love. I’m on leave from work so I have plenty of time to devote to your pet. I am up bright and early every day so I would be spending time with pets most of the day. I have teenager boys who love helping out with animals and being around them. I have back area where I can set areas of play up for pets.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Medinah
This was our pup's first day visit with Valentina. He must have had a great time because he was so tired afterwards! He took a nap right away when he got home! Valentina seemed very knowledgeable about different breeds of dogs and their care and her home seemed well equipped for doggie daycare. We will be returning to visit Valentina again soon!
Tina took excellent care of my cockapoo by walking him, feeding him and giving him medication. He loves praise, being petted and talked to. My little dog was having separation anxiety and each time I left my house I felt guilty. Now my dog is happy, plays with his dog friends, has people and animal companionship and eats and gets his medicine on-time. Tina is very loving and excellent with my baby! She puts on his two coats and boots before he goes outside in the snow. I definitely would recommend her!
David and his girlfriend were true dog whispers. I have a senior dog with separation anxiety from me. But they took care of her so well, we didn't have any issue and she loved her time there. They took so many photos (4-6 photos daily!) and shared updates to me very often. Highly highly recommended. Thank you so much for taking great care of Bori! ❤️

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Medinah
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Medinah on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of July 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 Medinah 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 IL 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.

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.
