Doggy Day Care • Jul 21, 2026

Susan was great with our dog, Murphy! She was super with communication, sending updates and pictures throughout the day and Murphy had an awesome time! She made him feel comfortable, and we will definitely schedule again in the future!

Susan is probably the best caretaker for my dogs I have ever had. She was extremely communicative, sending me multiple pictures every day. She was attentive to my dogs, playing with them, giving them treats, cuddles, and taking them on multiple walks a day. Would highly recommend Susan to anybody

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small 1 bedroom, 1 den apartment that is suitable for daytime or overnight stays and is a fully pet-proof space 🏡: Remove toxic plants, secure electrical cords, store household chemicals safely, and ensure doors/windows are secure. 🛏️ I can create a cozy resting area for your dog bed, fresh water, and familiar toys. Your pets are welcome on my furniture. 🍽️ Follow Their Routine: Stick to their feeding schedule and any dietary preferences. If medication is needed, I can ensure proper dosage and timing. Exercise & Mental Stimulation: Whether it’s walks, playtime, or interactive toys, keep pets engaged and active. 📢 Communicate with Owners: Send updates, photos, and reports about their pet’s well-being.

A typical day

I love to make sure your pet is happy and active. I live near two dog parks, a walking trail, and can take an excursion to a local reservation for an extra fee. If you bring dog toys, I’m happy to play games with your dog. I can provide them with a comfy napping area as well. I can give them plenty of cuddles and activity.

Let me know if any special needs or behaviors, particularly how your dog behaves with other dogs and if we should stay away from other dogs. Do they have special dietary needs and need a particular kind of treat? I also need emergency contact info and your vet info on case of emergency. Does your dog have any activity limitations? Shorter walks? What commands does your dog respond to and any other particular personality traits I should be aware of.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
