“Swetha and her family took amazing care of Snowy! They treated him like their own and were incredibly patient and attentive. I really appreciated the frequent updates — every few hours they would send multiple photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Snowy looked happy and comfortable the entire time. I would highly recommend Swetha to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Very satisfied with the care Ramona gave to my pup. It was the first time so she was a little timid but the pictures Ramona sent me showed that she was just fine. I would not hesitate to contact Ramona again when I need care for my pup.”
“Excellent service. Zach and his daughter were great with my dog Rex! Great setup with a tall fence and Rex loved playing with their dogs.This was a same day booking and they were able to accommodate us last minute and also the following day. I had only left my dog one day at a kennel his whole life so was nervous and within minutes knew I had made the correct choice with Zach and his home!”
About: Hi, I’m Nicole — a lifelong animal lover and self‑proclaimed helicopter dog parent. Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. My babies are in heaven now so I’ve joined rover as a pet sitter. I’ve spent the last decade-plus loving and supporting two very different pups with very different needs. My 16‑year‑old baby boy chihuahua Harley taught me everything about caring for a truly high‑maintenance senior dog. From medications and special feeding routines to extra snuggles, slow walks, and those middle‑of‑the‑night “I need you now” moments — I’ve handled it all with patience, gentleness, and love. I also shared my life with my 11 year old Labrador-baby girl Lexi- who recently passed away from cancer on 5/19. Navigating that journey with her taught me deep compassion, vigilance, and emotional care. I became an expert in monitoring comfort levels, adjusting daily routines, and making every moment count. These experiences shaped the way I care for every dog who comes into my home: with attentiveness, understanding, and the same level of devotion I have given my own. • I treat your dog the way I treat mine — like family. • I am extremely attentive and present. If your pup needs something, I’m there. • Senior dogs and high‑maintenance fur babies are welcome. I get them. • Dogs are absolutely allowed on furniture — cuddles are encouraged here. • We don’t have a fence, but I’m a safety‑first sitter. I leash dogs for every potty break and stay right with them. • Because I work from home, your dog will rarely be left alone. • My home is calm, cozy, and dog friendly. Why I Do This I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone. They’re your heart. Your family. Your little shadow. I’ve been in your shoes many times, I’ve used Rover in the past and my goal is to give you that same peace of mind I always looked for — knowing your pup is safe, loved, and truly understood. On weekdays I go to the gym early in the morning and telework daily in my private office with a comfy dog friendly couch. Sometimes I am home on the weekends and sometimes not so it depends on when you need care. If you’re unsure just message me and I can see if I am free. :) I do ask that if you request me, you have a filled out rover profile and photos. Thank you. Our non-smoking home is pet friendly and I have a 12 year old daughter who loves animals. I do not have any animals in my home. For potty breaks your pet would be leashed.
“Alamelu and her family are absolutely wonderful! They took excellent care of my dog, Pepper, for the day. She sent me pictures and updates, took him for walks, and made sure that he was comfortable in their home. Pepper came home very happy and tired out :) This was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. I truly cannot recommend Alamelu enough! When we are away, I will definitely have Alamelu take care of Pepper.”
“Nicole was amazing with Lola! Before Lola’s stay I warned Nicole that she probably won’t eat and doesn’t like to be handled a lot. By the end of the day, Lola trusted her enough to wipe her down and even ate ALL of her food. I was pleasently surprised that Lola trusted her enough after a few hours. Also, Nicole’s 3 dogs are so well behaved and Lola joined the pack in minutes. We now trust Nicole so much so that we feel confident about leaving Lola with her while we go on vacation for 2 weeks!”
“Melanie took absolutely wonderful care of my puppy! I couldn’t have asked for anything more. She clearly has a lot of experiences caring for animals and treated my puppy with the utmost care and respect. She cared for him as if he was her own, and I felt comfortable knowing he was in good hands for the day. She went above and beyond. I really can’t say enough good things, and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for care for their animal. I will definitely book Melanie again!!”
About: I’ve loved dogs my entire life, and now that I’m recently retired, I have the time to give them the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I treat every dog like part of the family—whether we’re going for a walk, playing fetch, or just relaxing together. With a calm, patient nature and a flexible schedule, I can focus fully on your pet’s needs and routines. You can rest easy knowing they’ll be safe, happy, and loved like one of my own. I am recently retired and am available all of the time. I currently have two small dogs of my own and watching an additional dog would be no trouble at all. If you dog stays with me, they will be treated just like my own pet. I am able to walk them, feed them special diets, or administer oral medication. I am home almost all of the time and can give them the attention they need.
“Monika watched my puppy all summer when I went to work. She was so great and patient with him, especially on days he was a handful. Dunkin loved spending his day with her and her family and was always excited upon arrival. I couldn’t recommend someone more to care for your pup!”
“Christine was great! She was very prompt on communication, sent updates on our dog, and had a nice family of dogs that were very well mannered and social with our fog. Would highly Reccomended her!!”
About: Hello, my name is Summer, and I am a dedicated animal caregiver with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and small animals. I also grew up helping care for animals on my grandfather’s farm in Missouri, which helped foster my deep passion and respect for animal care. I am experienced in administering vaccines, providing oral medications, and performing basic wound care. I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own, ensuring they receive attentive, loving, and responsible care at all times. I am a full-time stay-at-home mom, which allows me to be home throughout the day to provide constant supervision, companionship, and care. Your pet will never be left alone for extended periods. In my home, we have two cats, Onyx and Teddy, a Standard Poodle named Morty, as well as frogs and a hamster. All of my pets are well cared for and accustomed to being around other animals. Boarding Policies: • I do not accept pit bull–type dogs for boarding. • Drop-offs and pick-ups must occur within the agreed-upon time window. • A $25 late fee will apply if you are more than 30 minutes late for drop-off without prior approval. • If your dog is not dropped off by 8:00 PM, you will need to either wait until the next business day for drop-off or cancel the booking on your end, which may be subject to cancellation fees according to platform policy. • Owners are required to provide their dog’s food for the duration of their stay to help maintain consistency in their diet and avoid digestive upset. If food is not provided, a $30 supply fee will be added to the booking to cover food provided during their stay. Thank you for your understanding and for trusting me with your pets. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every animal in my care.

All pets are well cared for and accustomed to being around other animals. For safety and comfort, dogs are crated at bedtime and during the rare occasions when no one is home. Crating helps ensure a secure environment and peace of mind for both pets and owners. You are welcome to bring your own crate or playpen if preferred, and I also have extras available. Please feel free to let me know if you have any concerns or special requests regarding crating.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Richfield
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 632 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Richfield. 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 Richfield 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 OH 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 632 sitters in Richfield, 89% 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.
