“Kate was amazing! She was able to get us in last minute and my dog absolutely loved her (she sent pics of the puppy kisses). My dog came home happy (Kate even brought her home!) And tired from all her adventures. I was so nervous to leave my pupper with someone new, but Kate sent lots of pictures and my dog was clearly comfortable with her! Will absolutely use her again!”

About: I have always loved animals, grew up with cats and dogs. In high school and throughout college I worked & volunteered at a non-profit rescue. I loved fostering animals and helping them find homes. I work full-time, I am available after 4pm most days! Can do some weekend mornings, just ask and we will let you know! I can also do drop-ins in the early morning! I will not be offering at our personal home care due to location. We will be happy to come visit your fur babies as needed!
“I am pregnant, and had an emergency where we needed to go to the hospital ASAP & I was so worried where our Luette would go. Thankfully Donna was available and when we got her home for the evening she was absolutely pooped (gotta love high energy dogs) and slept so our family didn’t have to worry about keeping her entertained. We have used Donna in the past but this truly solidified our experience and we will exclusively book with her 🤍”
“Great sitters! Treated our baby like their own and sent lots of pictures and updates as it was our first time using them. We definitely use this sweet couple again ❤️”
About: Amo a las mascotas sobretodo los perros, sé que no son niños pero los trato tal cual respetuosa y cuidadora, me he criado con una mascota en casa desde mi infancia, mi primera mascota era un Rottweiler llamada Danger, ella era una belleza de perro, era grande e imponente, mi hermano y yo la entrenamos al punto que salía a caminar sin leash en la calle, acataba todas las ordenes que le dabamos, era muy inteligente. Al pasar de los años cuando conocí a mi esposo, el ya tenía un perro, era un poodle llamado Blacky el se convirtió rápidamente en mi bebe el no tenía muchos habitos de entrenamiento y con el pasar del tiempo le fui enseñando cosas básicas, como sentarse, dar la pata y caminar al lado sin que saliera corriendo sin leash, el falleció hace un par de años, su perdida fue muy dura de verdad. Y no hemos tenido más perros por los momentos, pero amigos y vecinos me han dado sus perros con lo ojos cerrados porque saben que los cuido muy bien, soy muy respetuosa y cariñosa, lo más importantes es que siempre busco de enseñarle algún truco, en mis fotos podrán ver algunos perros que he tenido cuidando varios dias, tengo a Toby que aparece en mi foto de perfil parecido a mi perro Blacky a Mila una cachorra hermosa, y luna una viejita hermosa. me gusta jugar con ellos y darle mucho amor. 🐕🦺Tener una mascota es mucha responsabilidad amor y paciencia. Estoy comenzando en esta app Rover formalmente y me gustaría cuidar a tu peludito. 🤗🐶 Actualmente trabajo por mi cuenta y estoy la gran parte de las veces en casa. Podría usar una parte de mi tiempo para visitar a tu mascota y recargar las energía con ella. Tengo un jardín súper grande y tengo bastante espacio para jugar con el o ella. Tambien en la urbanización puedo darle varias vueltas y conozcan la zona
“Max’s first day of daycare with Leslie went great. He felt right at home and I knew he was well taken care of and played with when I picked him up and he was excited and exhausted when we got home. We will definitely use Leslie again.”

“I can safely say that out of all, Summer stood out the best. She was polite, timely and easy to work with. Highly recommend here and will absolutely use her services if we are in the area again!!!”

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years, including my own dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, turtles, and more. Friends, family, and neighbors have always relied on me to walk, feed, board, and love their pets as if they were my own. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and my commitment to giving each pet a tailored experience. I pay close attention not just to their needs but also to their unique personalities and preferences whether that means a long walk, playtime, or extra snuggles. I’m comfortable with everything from puppy energy to senior care and make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away. I work from home and have an open schedule, so pet care is part of my daily routine. I let dogs play in my fenced yard, take them on neighborhood walks, and provide plenty of attention, feeding, and playtime throughout the day. My own Goldendoodle also loves having furry friends around to keep her company. I have a safe, fenced backyard and live in a pet-friendly neighborhood that’s great for walks. My 30-pound Goldendoodle is gentle and loves every dog she meets. Pets in my care are never left alone for long, and I can crate if needed. My husband and children also enjoy helping, so your pet will always have love, company, and supervision. UNLESS you require your dog to not be around other dogs. I can accommodate that as well.

About: My family loves to run around and play games with furry friends, and there’s always time to snuggle up on the couch. I only take one dog at a time, which allows me to offer focused care to your pet. I have taken care of family and friends’ pets for over 20 years, and would love to help out your family! I am a teacher, and have very flexible summer hours. I can accommodate whatever you need during June-August. During the school, year I am available every afternoon after 3pm. I have a fenced-in backyard in a neighborhood with lots of walking paths. I do not have any pets of my own, so we can devote all of our attention to your furry friend!
About: Hi there, thanks for checking my profile. I have extensive experience with dogs, cats and amphibians. You name it! I've taken care of birds and rabbits as well. I can administer all medications. I pride myself in going above and beyond. I send photo texts with every visit detailing activities. My care extends to your home and includes but is not limited to watering house plants, bringing mail in, and taking out garbage. But my primary duty is insuring your pet enjoys their time with me! If you've reached my profile but you're out of my mileage range please just ask! I can travel for a small gas surcharge. *OVERNIGHT VISITS!* Going forward overnight visits will be 12 hour overnight stays (example 9pm- 9 am). Included in the overnight rate are two potty breaks. Potty breaks are typically dinner time on the first day and lunch time on the second day or whatever you think bests suits your pets schedule. At this time I can only accommodate overnight visits on the weekends. I'm sorry if this is an inconvenience. Let's talk about your needs and see if we can come to an arrangement that works! I am a stay-at-home mom to two teens who just don't need me like they used to! My pups and cats adore me but they don't mind my sharing time with other fur-babies! I am active and love being out and about! I have very happy clients and I'm ready to grow my client base. I have a part time job at a gym that leaves me with plenty of pet care time! Pet sitting in my home requires a pet meet and greet to be sure your pup is compatible with my two dogs and one cat. It is my preference to care for pets in their own natural home environment. I offer one free meet and greet to go over all the household rules and pet routines with my new clients. Pet visits in your home are at least 30 minutes and includes a potty break, meal or treat, walk or playtime, LOVE to pet and photo text to human client, and any household care that might be needed. Household care includes cleaning up after/ brushing pet, watering plants, taking in garbage, turning lights in house on or off as requested, bringing mail in and of course communication with the pet/ home owner.

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my 3-year-old Goldendoodle and 8-year-old Golden Retriever. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving both energetic and senior dogs the attention they need. I’m flexible and able to work around most schedules, including weekdays, weekends, and overnight stays with advance notice, and I’ll always communicate clearly to confirm timing before each booking. When your pet is with me, you can expect consistent care, attention, and safety, including walks, playtime, feeding, and water checks exactly as instructed, along with a calm and patient approach for all dog personalities and energy levels. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing, and I treat every dog like family. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority at all times. I provide a calm, secure, and supervised environment where dogs are never left unattended during care, and I always follow owner instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and routines. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable, whether they’re energetic or more laid-back. I also keep a clean environment and make sure pets are always in a safe space during visits or stays.
“Jeanette is such a joy to have your pet around! She is organized and detail. She provides updates and love to my Melo. Melo deals with separation anxiety but he enjoyed his time with her. He came home worn out and had a great time. I would recommend her to anyone with a little one.”

About: I treat every pet as if they were my own — with patience, safety, and lots of love. I take the time to learn each animal’s unique personality, routines, and comfort needs so they feel relaxed while their humans are away. I stay organized with clear communication and daily updates so owners always know their pets are happy and well cared for. Im stay home mom. My home includes a fenced yard where dogs can run, sniff, and enjoy fresh air. Outdoor time is always supervised, and I tailor walks and play sessions to each pet’s energy level. Whether it’s fetch, sniff time, or sunbathing, they get the exercise and joy they need. No access to toxic plants or unsafe items
“Nathalie was awesome with Teddy . She and her dog echo were very welcoming to Teddy and he clearly enjoyed being there. She took videos and constantly kept in communication with me. Thank you again. Will definitely book again.”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - New Salem
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,302 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across New Salem. 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 New Salem 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 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 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 1,302 sitters in New Salem, 85% 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.
