Danielle is AWESOME!! Roxy had a great time with her and her dogs and kids are amazing! She sent me photos during the day and let me know how Roxy was doing. She takes her for nice walks and gets plenty of exercise and fun. I'm super happy with the care Roxy gets at her house. Thanks!

Debbie has a lovely home and my dear pups were treated like honored guests. The meet and greet let me know Jasper and Millie were in good hands. Debbie’s entire family welcomed our dogs. I felt like I had an entire team to meet their needs with Debbie as captain. I appreciated the photos and texts to know our family pets were In good hands. It was a terrific experience and gives me great peace to know I can work late or plan an adventure and our beautiful pups will be in loving hands. Very grateful.

About: I have been a dog owner for 20 years, I currently have a Belgian Tervuren puppy who would love the company. I have 1/2 acre fenced in yard. I am home during the day and evening. Dogs can play outside or come inside if they would like. I would be happy to board your dog and make sure they are comfortable coming here. I work at home so pets would be not a problem as I can tend to them al all times. During the evening I can play with them and interact with the dogs so they feel comfortable. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in yard as well as security cameras so that I can monitor the yard at all times. The dogs love running around in my yard.

About: Hello I currently own 2 dogs and 3 cats. My friends, family, and neighbors rely on me when going on trips to help out with their fur babies. Doing their feeding, taking them for walks, playing with them, giving them medication if needed or just keeping them company. I currently work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule. To do drop in visits, or walks it’s also helpful that I’m home all day to keep an eye on your babies and play with them on my breaks. I have a fenced yard big enough for your pet to run around, or play with my dogs that enjoy company. Either your pet likes to play outside with toys or receive lots of cuddles, or walks. I do require a meet and greet before setting anything up to see if everyone gets along.

About: Three years kennel/shelter experience. I have trained retrievers for 10 years. My family has fostered dogs my whole life. I have also owned a wide variety of small and exotic animals. My home currently has three medium sized dogs and two turtles... With plenty of room for your babies ;) I am currently working part time. About 3 hours 2-3 times a week, so most of my time is spent at home with my animals. I have a fully fenced yard and a pool with an automatic cover. My youngest dog sleeps in a kennel and my two older sleep in bedrooms with us. I am more than willing to kennel my dogs while I am not home for your pet's comfort.

Rusty has a wonderful, gentle way with dogs. Mine is an anxious, large 8 month old puppy. She warmed up to him right away and ran around in the large gated backyard, along with going to walks. I will definitely book with Rusty again and recommend him to everyone.

Cassandra is awesome. We are visiting and had no idea what to do with Gordo since we were afraid to leave him in the hotel alone and wanted to make a cubs game. We contacted on short notice but Cassandra responded quickly and took great care of our fur baby.

About: My husband I both grew up with golden retrievers and have a soft spot for them. When I was first out on my own and bought my first home, I rescued a pit bull and she was with me until she passed. My husband, sons and I are all dog lovers and would love to welcome your dog into our home. My husband is home full time and I work from home and we are anxious to care for your pet! We have 2 sons - ages 6 and 10, so kid-friendly dogs are a must. We are available any day of the week at any time, unless we have something specific planned (which is not often). Please feel free to ask about specific dates and times and I will be sure to add you to my calendar! My husband is home full time and I work from home so we have ample amounts of time to care for your pet. My 2 sons LOVE dogs and love to play and take dogs on walks. Our yard is unfenced, per our HOA rules so your pet will always be on a leash for potty breaks and walks around the neighborhood. Pets are free to explore the entire home and will not be crated or gated, unless a crate is provided and requested.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats of all sizes and energy levels since I was a little kid growing up in Brazil. I used to volunteer giving baths to dogs before adoption days and loved being part of their journey to a new home. I currently have two Labradors and two cats who are truly part of my family. I’ve also cared for pets of friends and family for years, and now I’m excited to offer my love and attention to pets on Rover. I promise to care for your pets as if they were my own! I am a stay at home wife, I’m available on both weekends and weekdays. We have a fenced backyard and live across the street from a park. I have a fenced backyard and a large crate available if needed. I can host dogs comfortably in my home or house sit at the client’s home, depending on what works best for you and your pet.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Pistakee Highlands

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Pistakee Highlands on Rover is $35.97 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 804 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Pistakee Highlands. 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 Pistakee Highlands 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 804 sitters in Pistakee Highlands, 87% 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.
