“Ashlee and her family were great! They were able to take our pup on short notice for a couple days of doggie day care. Ashlee was always quick to respond, sent multiple updates throughout the day, and very accommodating to our crazy schedule. I would definitely recommend and use her again!”
“Melody was very easy to communicate with, she was very attentive to Buddy and his needs. Accommodating in our unpredictable schedule while we were in the area was a pleasure for us.”

About: I’ve had a dog in the home for almost my entire life, and got my first on my own during Covid to have a friend around 😊 My second dog moved in two years ago. I work full-time from home, so, other than leaving once a day for working out at the gym, my schedule is flexible to fit around your pet’s needs. I have a fenced yard and two dogs who love to play. I allow dogs on the furniture and have a gate to prevent them from getting downstairs. My neighborhood is quiet and great for walks.
“My dog Mollie stayed with Donna for doggy day care. Mollie was immediately comfortable around Donna and was sufficiently tired when I took her home. Donna was very welcoming and prompt when it came to responding to my messages. She sent me updates through pictures and gave me a feedback of Mollie's stay. Great experience!”
About: *Please note I'm only offering services Bellevue* Hello! We are a Veteran Air Force family who loves animals. I have cared for many senior dogs and puppy mill rescues. I can provide a quiet and patient environment for them. Our home is pet and child free. I'm always available for potty breaks, daily walks, on time feeding schedule & lots of spoiling by treating your dogs like my own. Since the passing of our last pet, we are currently a pet-free home. This gives me all the time to care for your beloved furry family members. I'm comfortable kenneling dogs per your instructions. I am happy to walk your dog as needed also. I only take dogs out on leashes or a tie down if there isn't a fenced yard.
“Jennifer took such great care of our energetic pup! It was so nice to know Willow was being well loved & cared for. Jennifer sent a great report card each day and Willow was always worn out when we picked her up. Willow can’t wait for her next play date with Jennifer’s pup & attention from her family.”
“Ainsley was great! My little dog seemed completely comfortable at her home and was obviously happy when I picked him up. I definitely would recommend her as a sitter — she’s very kind, a great communicator, and clearly loves animals. Will ask her to watch my dog again. Thanks Ainsley! A+++”
“Our girl Stevie LOVED her daycare visit with Crystal! Crystal was inviting, warm, and friendly with great communication and updates. Stevie got to play, made some friends, and seemed immediately comfortable in Crystal’s care. We’re thrilled to have found such a good fit and are looking forward to booking with Crystal for the holidays. Highly recommend!!”
“Mia had an awesome day hanging out with Joan, Clark, and Frances! She got to play a lot outside and came home very happy and very tired! Joan is a true gem and will take great care of your puppy while you are away! Very highly recommended!”
“Miss Penny Mae enjoyed the fenced in back yard. She had great play and snuggle time with the other dog at the home. Their little girl and Miss Mae are quite the match :) Penny is a finicky eater and she was comfortable enough to eat at the residence. It's been a great experience! Thank you for caring for my baby girl!”
“Blitzen had a great time playing at Roger's house for the day. I appreciate how Roger checks in with photos throughout the day and his flexibility with drop off and pick up times. Another great stay!”
About: I absolutely love animals - big dogs, little dogs, cats, etc. I will treat your animal with as much love as I do my own! I have a Golden Pyrenees. 🙂 I work from home so I am home all the time so it’s easy to take the dogs out frequently during the day. I work M-F so weekends are free time. My dog is super pet friendly. I do live in an apartment but we do have a dog park. I am also right on a walking trail and I love to go for walks.
About: Our Weimaraner keeps us active with daily hikes and play time in the yard. I am very particular with the care provided to him so I understand the importance of meeting your expectations. My husband and I raised Siberian Huskies for 6 years and couldn’t imagine our home without a canine companion. I am excited to provide others with the care I desire for my own! I am a teacher looking for a flexible schedule to stay busy throughout the summer and breaks. I enjoy staying active and love experiencing breeds of varying sizes, ages, and energy requirements. Our Weimaraner thrives on socializing with other dogs and will keep the play time interesting. We have a large crate available if necessary. Although we do not have a fenced in yard we have a tie out as well as a membership to the nearby dog park. We travel with our dog and will take yours along, too!
“Cindy was so amazing and sweet with our dog ! We came from out of town and wanted Mocha to be able to play while we explored Omaha during the day. Cindy took the BEST care of her. Spoiled her with treats, took her on walks, and loved her. Would definitely recommended Cindy to anyone looking for a dog sitter. She sent us lots of updates so we knew she was having fun while we were off having fun.”
“We were in town with family and needed a last minute dog sitter. Michelle accepted our request. She had great communication. She even sent a picture and let us know she ate her dinner and was comfortably settled. So thankful we found Michelle. Highly recommend her!”
About: People say that I'm a dog whisperer. All animals love and feel very comfortable with me. I have owned and taken care of animals for over 40 years! I am currently retired. I have plenty of time to give my full attention to your fur babies. I have fun playing in the backyard, cuddling and going for walks! I care for pets like they are a part of my family. I have a couple little dogs of my own that love making new furiends!
About: My passion for caring for animals from a very young age! My Grandparents and parents were very influential in teaching me to love and care for them and how to read their body language, most specifically, my dad. I started when I was 15 years old when I owned 3 dogs: two German shepherds and a Pitbull. Throughout my life, I also owned 2 Weimaraners, and an incredible Basset Hound. His name was Hank, and recently passed away being 12 years old. I work remotely as a Project Controller, which is perfect as it provides a lot of flexibility. During my free time, I love hanging out with my family and friends, going on walks, going to the beach, and watching the sunset with my spouse. I also like learning something new and challenging, reading a good book, working out, dancing, and cooking! If you trust me with your dog, she/he may be learning a new language! I work remotely, which is perfect as it provides a lot of flexibility as well as allows me spend more time taking care of my dog as well of others. Doing daily walks, play games, giving them some love! I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog if you prefer and make other accommodations as needed.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Mineola
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 272 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Mineola. 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 Mineola 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 IA 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 272 sitters in Mineola, 89% 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.
