Hana was there only 5 hours with 4 dogs to try it out first time with new sister. I knew that hana was having a lot of fun. Austin let me in their yard how Hana was playing with their dogs when I picked her up.Their dogs are amazing to Hana too.They are very friendly and sweet. Thank you so much and sorry for the reviewing late. I absolutely go back to them when I travel.”
“Great sitters! They took great care of our Sam, definitely spoiled him :D We really appreciate your kindness, being flexible with pick up/drop off and keeping us updated. We’ll be back!”
“Thank you, Ellen! Our pup Cici had and awesome time. She usually doesn't eat when she is at a sitter for the first time. So, we knew she felt safe and at home when she ate while she was there. We loved all the photos, and we could tell she had fun because she slept like a puppy when she came home. We will definitely see you again!”
“Carolina was so sweet and accommodating!! She had to be ready to receive my pups at 6 am, which is so early and had them for a very long day! I felt relieved knowing that my pups were in good hands. Suki is quite hyper when she first arrives to a new place and Carolina was so patient with her, a true dog lover!!”
About: I have 3 years of experience caring for dogs and have hands-on experience with a senior dog, two dogs who require daily medication, and raising and training a puppy. I provide loving, patient, and attentive care while following each pet’s unique routine and needs. ❤️🐾 I’m currently working part time, so I have a flexible schedule and there is always someone home to care for and spend time with the fur babies. I can provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship. I will treat your fur babies like my own, providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. I will follow their routines, give them the attention they need, and make sure they always feel cared for and secure.
“Chaoran is great giving updates and Appa seems to really make himself at home with her! I appreciate her flexibility with drop off and pick up times and booking without much notice!”
About: I have always been an animal lover! I spent a better chunk of my high school and college years watching horses, donkeys, dogs, cats, fish, birds, ferrets, chickens, and basically any other critter you can think of. I will absolutely love your animals as my own. I am available on short notice and can do daytime dog sitting. I am able to administer shots, IM injections, oral medications, or whatever special needs your pet may have. I work from home on my 6.52 acre farmette. I have a fenced in yard, a dog door, and a sweet old lady dog who is happy to show the dogs the ropes! I have 5 fenced in acres for dogs to run around and play. I love to spend time outside playing with all the animals I can get my hands on. I’m equipped for horses, donkeys, goats, ferrets, dogs, birds, and reptiles!
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 7 years, and it’s something I genuinely love. I have experience with dogs of all sizes from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra care and attention. I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care is a regular and rewarding part of my weekly routine. I’m calm, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s needs making sure they get the right balance of exercise, playtime, and rest throughout the day. Pets stay in a clean, cozy, and pet-friendly space with plenty of room to relax or play, including a fully fenced yard where they can safely explore and enjoy the outdoors. There’s always someone home even if I need to step out briefly, my mom grandma or my boyfriend, who are both equally experienced and caring with pets, are always around to help. I usually introduce them during meet and greets so everyone feels comfortable and at ease
“Tiffany was an absolute delight to book with!! From the very beginning, she was very prompt in her responses and answered any questions that I had. I am a newer dog mom, so she put me at ease due to her kindness and professionalism. She was very flexible with drop-off/pickup times, which I know can be tough for most. That was a huge plus! She also communicated throughout the day with updates and cute photos of my fur baby so I knew he was safe and well taken care of. If I could, I would give her 10/5 stars! I definitely plan to book with her again in the near future! Thanks again Tiffany!”
About: I've had dogs for 17 years. I love all pets! I treat dog sitting dogs as if they are my own. I have 1 dog of my own who loves when we have visitors. I have had many repeat customers, and I miss them when they leave. I work from home, have a doggie door and a fenced in yard. I take the dogs out regularly for play and potty breaks. The dogs will never be left alone. I can crate a dog if need be and have my own crate. I have 1 dog who is very much submissive. I have a 3 level house so if dogs need to be separated that is not an issue.
“Cindy does an amazing job with Milo. Milo has separation anxiety and he’s blind. She takes care of him as if he was her own and it means so much to us. We trust her completely to leave Milo with her at any time. She’s very accommodating with both of our work schedules and is always available for us when we need help with Milo. we would recommend her service to anyone. Looking for great care for their pets.”
“Renee is wonderful in this. This is the first day care experience for our puppy and Renee is very patient to deal with the nipping and teething as well. Our puppy had a great time and glued with her little one. Renee sent pictures and gave updates how she was doing throughout. Will definitely recommend and send our puppy again to Renee for daycare.”

Tillie enjoyed her day with Erica and her son. She is a young dog and enjoys spending time and playing with other dogs. She is a Cavipoo and loves everything and everybody. My husband and I are retirees and there are times when we need to have free days for appointments. I am very glad we were able to find Erica who is so close to where we live.

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.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
