About: Hi!!! My name is Lauryn! I have always had a strong love and passion for animals— rather they’re inside pets, or a tiny creature outdoors! I became a dog mommy at 5 years old, and haven’t looked back since! 💓 I currently have three fur babies of my own. I would love to assist you for the care of your pets when needed! My hours are very flexible! 😊 I’m happy to help whenever I’m needed and will always do my best to fit you in as long as I have availability that day. 🐾 I’m patient and flexible with both young and senior dogs, with hands-on experience from my own. 🐾 I don’t mind cleaning up accidents, always keep pups safely leashed on walks, and make sure they have fresh water and plenty of belly rubs & cuddles! I’m happy to work around your needs — feel free to ask any questions. I’d love to help care for your fur baby/babies! 💕

Miranda is a life saver! I had a last minute schedule change and she was able to watch Cash and he loves her! She takes him for walks and lets him run around which is exactly what my pup needs! She also sends TONS of photos throughout the day so you know your pup is having a great time! Plus it brightens my day ?

About: I‘ve had pets as long as I can remember. I have a cat and a dog who love to play! My family bred cats growing up, so I have dealt with MANY different situations and know the proper responses in emergency situations. I have experience training, walking, socializing, and showing dogs and cats. I love pets and would be thrilled to take care of your furry friend. Spending time with pets brings me joy. I know each pet has a unique personality, and love learning and adapting to each one’s! I look forward to meeting your precious pet and taking care of it as if it were my own. Thanks for checking out my profile! I’m a stay-at-home mom to a toddler, so my schedule is fairly flexible! Whether it’s an early morning walk or a late night check-in, I’m here to help care for your pets. I have a cat and a dog at home, both of whom are high energy. I love to play tug and fetch and use wand toys to entertain, but am just as comfortable giving snuggles or taking your furry friends on a walk.

About: Hello everyone, I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 11 years old. Since having pets of of own for 3 years I’ve gotten more experienced with meditation, feeding schedules and portion sizes, play time, and even bath days. I recently moved into my first home once I got my pets situated I wanted to start sitting again. I currently work a 7 on 7 off night job. I feed one of my pets in the morning and then both of them at lunch at 12. Their dinner time is usually 5:30. I like to take them walking in the afternoons. I have a fenced back yard, no poisonous plants on the floor, there’s enough space for your animals to walk around and even lay down and take a nap. I also have cameras in the back and front of my property.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Petal

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Petal on Rover is $27.75 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 34 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Petal. 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 Petal 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 MS 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 34 sitters in Petal, 79% 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.
