Timmy loved being with Joni for the first time! I could tell he was comfortable and having fun especially with playmate, Sheldon! Timmy was worn out in a good way! Great relief to know I can drop him off and he is cared for like I would care for him!

Victoria and Rishi are great! My dog Jax seemed to take to them and was able to relax. I could tell that Jax was getting comfortable with them when he went right to Rishi on his second visit. They also worked with my schedule. Overall nothing but great things to say.

Kimberly was super flexible and great with our 7 month old pup, Maggie! She communicated well with us ahead of time and made the whole process smooth as we were navigating Rover for the first time. Her dog Sparky got along great with our dog and Maggie was nice and tired out in the evening. Thanks again!

About: I've had a dog for the past 5 years ( shiloh ) she's a German Shepard! She is wonderfully and well trained also is fixed. she does love to greet people so she might jump. I've also dog sat for many years as well and I worked for a dog company back in 2017 where I took care of daily task as well as medical needs when necessary, and worked along side pregnant and and birthing mothers. I have had a couple cats growing up, none to call my own though. So I am also acquainted with the care of cats and kittens as well as shiloh was raised around all types of animals and children of various ages so we are comfortable saying there should be no issues with her. However we can make other accommodation for her if you don't feel comfortable with another animal in the home. One final note I have 2 children a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I hope you enjoy my profile and to hear from you soon! I have a 5 year old German Shepard who lives full time with me and my children at home. I know how to give medication, shots aswell as cut nails and bathe but I do not feel comfortable trimming or giving the dogs a hair cut. I don't have a fence, i do have a little yard but I have harnesses and leads to walk and take the dogs out side to play. I do have a crate available if needed my dog is trained as well as crate trained. Shiloh ( my dog ) love the company of other fur babies to run around as play with. My two children are also in love with animals but I do have a vary large second living room and attached mud room that I can limit off for dog access if it would make having a dog stay here more comfortable due them not being used to children!

As the owner of Noble Paw Society LLC, care is approached with intention, discernment, and deep respect for the individuality of every dog. As a certified therapy dog handler and aspiring professional dog trainer, I bring both intuitive understanding and a growing technical foundation to my work. My experience spans dogs of all breeds, temperaments, and backgrounds, supported by extensive foster work that has shaped a calm, adaptable, and safety-first approach to care. I am highly attentive to canine behavior, environmental management, and proper introductions, ensuring that every dog in my care feels secure, respected, and well-matched. Safety, structure, and emotional well-being are at the core of every service I provide. Noble Paw Society operates with a selective client model, maintaining a small, well-curated roster to ensure each dog receives elevated, personalized attention. I offer in-home boarding and house sitting, with availability primarily in the evenings and on weekends. Many of my clients are long-standing relationships built on trust, consistency, and thoughtful care. My home is a calm, dog-centered environment with a secure fenced yard and two well-socialized resident dogs, both rescues. Both are certified therapy dogs (Spring 2025 and Spring 2026). Dogs here are treated as family, with comfort, enrichment, and appropriate boundaries thoughtfully balanced. For those who value discretion, reliability, and a higher standard of care, Noble Paw Society offers a refined approach to pet sitting rooted in trust, safety, and genuine connection.

About: I’m a dog owner and lover who treats every pet like part of the family. Our home is a peaceful, lakefront retreat where dogs get plenty of attention, affection, and a calm environment to feel safe and loved while you’re away. Each dog will have their own private space and we have a puppy community areas indoors for the winter. Our backyard is not currently fenced but will be fully fenced in with a 6ft fence by March. We have 2 lovely dogs ourselves, a male mini Aussie and female puppy golden retriever. I’ve grown up around pets and have hands-on experience caring for dogs, understanding their needs, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure. Together, we provide a structured, nurturing environment with lots of supervision, play, and one-on-one attention. Your pup won’t just be boarded—they’ll be on vacation. From cozy private spaces to outdoor time and daily updates, we make sure every dog truly lives the good life while staying at our lakefront home. We can’t wait to welcome your pet into our home! Your dog will never be left alone or unattended in our home. My wife, our in-house assistant, and I work together to ensure dogs are seamlessly cared for throughout the day in a calm, structured environment. My wife is home full-time and is the primary caregiver during the day. She handles feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, rest periods, and one-on-one attention. Her background in childcare as a nanny translates perfectly into maintaining routines, monitoring behavior, and providing patient, attentive care. Our in-house assistant is also home full-time and supports daily care by assisting with supervised play, cleaning and sanitizing spaces, meal prep, and individual check-ins. This allows us to keep our dog-to-human ratio low and give each pup personalized attention. I’m actively involved as well, helping with morning and evening routines, enrichment activities, and overall supervision. With multiple adults present at all times, dogs are rotated through play, rest, and care schedules so no pup is ever overwhelmed or overlooked. Because we are always home, dogs receive frequent potty breaks, consistent supervision, and plenty of affection—just like they would with their own family. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and well-being are our top priorities. We’ve intentionally created a calm, structured environment where dogs are closely supervised and cared for at all times. Our home is never unattended—my wife, our in-house assistant, and I are always present, ensuring constant supervision throughout the day and night. Dogs are cared for in a controlled setting with private, comfortable spaces to rest and decompress, helping reduce stress and overstimulation. We maintain strict cleanliness and safety standards, including regular sanitizing of all dog areas, food and water bowls, and shared spaces. We follow each dog’s individual care instructions carefully, from feeding schedules to potty routines and any special needs. We are selective about the dogs we accept to ensure a safe, positive environment for everyone. This allows us to maintain a low dog-to-human ratio, closely monitor behavior, and give each pup the attention they deserve. For added peace of mind, we provide regular photo and video updates so you can see your dog happy, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away. Our goal is to create a trusted home-away-from-home where you can travel confidently knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in great hands.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 4 years old, mainly my own until about age 11 when I started to help out taking care of family and friends dogs as well! I’ve been trusted to walk, feed, sit, and bathe their pets since then. I’m great with pets, and enjoy playing with them as well! I’m currently working a part time job that is very flexible. I typically work 8:30am-3pm Monday-Thursday, but I can easily adjust my hours to fit your pups needs. If your pup needs constant supervision I’m free Friday-Sunday for boarding! When I pet sit in my home it just depends on what the owner and pet is comfortable with. I’ll follow the instructions on how to care for their pet because each one if different. Each one will be cared for to my best ability!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Ovid

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 206 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Ovid. 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 Ovid 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 MI 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 206 sitters in Ovid, 91% 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.
