About: I’ve been taking care of pets since childhood. First it was cats, then dogs, and I’m now a proud owner of a Quaker parrot. I’m willing to walk or pet sit dogs, help pet sit cats at their own home, and the same with exotic birds. Someone is always home with the pet and we also help you dog get socialized with our parrot. When I had dogs, I let them sleep on the bed with us. I also let them sit on the furniture, too. And I do spoil them, also. I work full time in the afternoon shift but my boyfriend works mornings so there is always someone home. He loves animals, too! I do my best to work around my schedule. Our bird Kerry only goes in his cage when we are both out of the house and at bedtime. Otherwise, we let him out. Kerry is used to dogs. He likes to talk to dogs.
About: I’ve been watching pets since I was young. I went to school to be a vet assistant so I know how to care for your pets more than most. I work at a doggie day care so I’m able to take your dogs to work with me to get some extra play time and exercise if that’s something your interested in. There is always someone home so there is no need to worry about your pets being home alone for long periods of time. This also means that your dog will be taken out multiple times throughout the day. I have the best interest of your dogs in mind and will do whatever it takes to make sure their time with me is as enjoyable as possible.
“I absolutely love leaving my dog with Beyonka! My pup is always extremely happy when he goes to her place, and that gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s being well cared for. Every time I pick him up he smells delicious and looks so well-loved. You can tell she truly enjoys what she does. I 100% recommend her—she’s amazing!”
“Miriam was wonderful, absolutely wonderful with Katie, our terrier rescue. She let her sit on her lap while she worked. She had a raincoat, then a winter coat, on her when the weather got colder for her trips outdoors. She furnished these coats, I didn't bring any. A 3-page report card was given to me when I picked Katie up. It detailed her potty breaks and told cute little stories about their day together. I received numerous pics and videos that I thoroughly enjoyed. I met Terrell when I was leaving, and he seemed just as wonderful. I would give her 100 stars if I could.”
“Jennifer and her husband are the best! We had never boarded or had our dog go to “daycare” and she put all of our worries at ease. She kept us updated and sent photos. Toby gets excited when he realizes where we are going and comes home happy and tired every time.”
About: I have 10 pets myself, all well taken care of of and ranging from 5 years old to 1. I LOVE to pet sit and meet new furry friends. We have a huge fenced in back yard for them to play in as well! I have experience with pets with anxiety, fear aggression, and more. I am not scared of inconvenience or personality stigmas. I also have experience with special needs pups, elderly pups, and giving medication. I have always loved animals since I was a kid and always advocate for them. I own my own business where I work from home, so I have plenty of time and availability to take care of your fur babies! I believe in reward based training rather than punishment! I can crate your pups if needed. I also have experience in cats and other small animals who need watching.
About: Animals in general should be loved and protected! I embrace all species and rescue anything in need. I do love animals more than people ;) I have plenty of time for animals in my life. I work 3 hours a day at my kiddos school otherwise I m home with my little guy and chickens. My yard is fenced but I do like taking walks and playing in the yard. I do some dog walking in the neighborhood but am accepting more!
“My little dog, Sassy had an unexpected surgery and recovery period. I had been at wits end about what to do with her as I could not take the time from work. Thankfully, I found Bill able to accomodate Sassy on short notice for the critical time following her surgery. Bill gave me absolute peace of mind that Sassy was well cared for and given attention when I could not be there for her. Sassy could tell "Bill days" and would wait impatiently by the car so she wouldn't miss her chance to go see her friend. I really loved that Bill gave me updates on a daily basis and sent me pictures of my little one resting comfortably. I will for sure be asking, no begging, Bill to take care of my dogs when I find myself needing a helping hand. Thank you Bill for opening your home to my Sassy and caring for her so well.”
About: I love all the furry babies, my own fur babies are treated like my children. I work from home, so your baby would have my attention through the entire day. We would have time to play, walk, snuggle, and bond. I have a large fenced in back yard. Your baby would feel at home and comfortable in my home, they would have full access to roam and wander. They also would be allowed on the couches / beds for snuggles and belly rubs. I work from home, giving me the flexibility to ensure your pup has plenty of time and attention. I have an 11 year old son who is just as much as an animal lover. I have a large fenced in back yard. My foxy girl loves to get her zoomies out back there, and loves playing fetch. My son will love on, play, and engage with your pup also.
About: I've been studying dog behavior for over 9 years. I also have experience as a veterinary receptionist and grooming assistant. I train pet dogs on good behavior as well as rehabilitation for fearful or aggressive dogs. Safety is my #1 concern. Every dog that comes into my home is treated like family, as I do my own dogs. I am blessed with a large house that has a separate living quarters for the boarding dogs and a big beautiful fenced yard. Both are kept clean and hazard free. I would love to host your dog and make sure you are worry free while you're away! I work with dogs as a career and am home full time. I have a daily routine that changes depending on what dogs I have. Each dog gets fed once or twice, a day depending on owner preference. For medical or dietary reasons feeding can me more or less frequent. Any medications needed will be given. Each dog gets back yard exercise daily. Of course they get plenty of love! 🐾 Saftey and cleanliness are my top concerns. My home is clean and hazard free. I am "puppy proof" and always vigilant. I have accommodations and experience working with aggressive or reactive dogs and can also accommodate/work with kennel anxitey. I am able to keep dogs separate from my personal dogs if needed. Dogs that are friendly will be able to socialize/play with my very well tempered pack, depending on owner preference. I have a fenced yard and there are no gaps or ways to get out. I can also accommodate jumpers using a long recall leash!
“Yesenia was so great. I was in from out of town and I had a gap between when we needed to be out of the Airbnb and when the class I came for ended. I needed some place to take my dog for a few hours. She was conveniently near where I needed to be. She attentively asked about my dog’s needs (she’s dog-reactive and has anxiety) and provided a safe space for her to be. My dog felt so relaxed that she fell asleep while cuddling with her. Would highly recommend Yesenia’s services!”
“I can't even put into words how happy and grateful I am to have found Erin. From our first drop off she made me feel totally comfortable. She sent many pics and videos throughout the day. She has great energy with all her pets and mine too. I know my baby is loved and well cared for in her home.”
About: My husband and I have a lot of experience caring for cats, dogs, and birds. I've been house sitting /animal sitting for around 7 years on the side. I absolutely love animals, and I've had experience caring for a large variety of them. I've watched 4 large dogs at a time, all of whom needed special medication and attention. I care for every animal like they're my own, and just absolutely love being around dogs. I have a spacious home and I am very attentive. I live in a safe neighborhood, and I am by my phone 24/7 so can be in contact with you at any time. I work remotely and sometimes have to go in to the office. My husband is almost always home, and we always make sure someone is at home to be with the animals. Care is always personalized to the dogs needs. We go for regular walks, follow any dietary restrictions, and always check with the pet-parent if there's anything else needed.
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life. Many times I have been trusted by neighbor, friends and family members to care for their furry loved ones well they are away. I work part time so I have plenty of time to play and hang out with your pets. Wednesday’s and Fridays are my long days at work but the rest of the week I am pretty flexible. I will take care of your pet in their home. That way they are less stressed and have all the comforts they are use to. But if need to care for your pet at my home I have a fenced in yard and two lovable pups to keep your dog company. I could also crate your dog if needed or requested.
About: Hello! My name is Kasey and I absolutely LOVE dogs. My whole life I have been a dog lover. I like big dogs, small dogs, and anywhere in between. I live in large house with plenty of space for your dog to roam and have a large, fenced back yard for exercise. Dogs are allowed on furniture in this house! I will watch your dog during the day or over night. I also offer drop-in visits and dog walking. I am home during the day, most days of the week, and can let your dog out to play or run or go potty frequently. I love to snuggle with dogs so don't worry about your dog feeling lonely.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Nettle Creek
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 282 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Nettle Creek. 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 Nettle Creek 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 282 sitters in Nettle Creek, 81% 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.
