Christine's home environment seems very nice, and she and her children are welcoming. It was evident Fitz enjoyed himself. And got a walk, to boot--which he dearly loves. The sniffs are like reading the daily newspaper (for dogs). We plan to book Christine again, including for boarding.

Amazing! My first time using Rover or any sitter at all and I couldn’t have picked a better person to care for Roscoe. Andrea sent me a lot of pictures and videos throughout the time he was there which it was great. My puppy loved her, I can tell.

About: Hi! My name is Laritza and caring for animals has always been my passion. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and I truly treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. I currently spend most of my time at home with my baby, which allows me to provide a calm and loving environment where pets receive lots of attention, supervision, and affection throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, pets are rarely left alone and can feel comfortable and safe. I live in a safe condominium with nice areas for walking dogs and I also have a small fenced patio where pets can safely enjoy fresh air. I always make sure every pet follows their usual routine, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of love. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel relaxed knowing your furry friend is in good hands. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel happy, safe, and loved while you are away. I currently spend most of my time at home, which allows me to provide constant attention and care for the pets I look after. I also have a baby, which means I naturally maintain a calm and home-centered routine. This is actually a positive environment for pets because they receive plenty of company and supervision throughout the day. I always make sure pets get their walks, playtime, and the attention they need. If needed, I also have family support to help with childcare so I can fully focus on walks or specific pet needs. My schedule is flexible, and I always adapt to each pet’s routine to make them feel comfortable and safe. I live in a safe and peaceful condominium with several areas perfect for walking dogs. I also have a small fenced patio where pets can safely enjoy fresh air. My home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly. Because I spend most of my time at home caring for my baby, pets are rarely left alone and receive lots of supervision, love, and attention. I always prioritize safety, following each owner’s instructions carefully and making sure every pet feels relaxed and cared for as if they were at home.

Hailey was so sweet and was quick to respond when we needed a sitter for Mo while my wife attended a wedding. She was super flexible and made sure I was comfortable before leaving him with the other pups. Would use her again if we’re ever back in the area!

I was honestly very anxious leaving Paco for the first time with someone I didn’t personally know. He’s a big dog and can be intimidating at first, even though he’s truly just a big fluff ball. From the very beginning, they were incredibly patient—not just with Paco, but with me as well. I asked a million questions and checked in often, and they were always kind, responsive, and reassuring. They kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear they genuinely care about the dogs they look after, and Paco was in great hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive dog sitters.

About: Hola, soy Any, y los perros siempre han sido parte importante de mi vida. He tenido muchos perros a lo largo de los años, de diferentes razas y tamaños, lo que me ha dado una gran experiencia en el cuidado de todo tipo de peluditos. Además, durante muchos años he cuidado a los perritos de amigos y familiares, por lo que ya estoy muy acostumbrada a darles atención, cariño y a adaptarme a sus diferentes personalidades y necesidades. ……………….. Hi, I'm Any, and dogs have always been an important part of my life. I've had many dogs over the years, of different breeds and sizes, which has given me a lot of experience in taking care of all kinds of furry friends. Additionally, for many years I've looked after the dogs of friends and family, so I'm very used to giving them attention, love, and adapting to their different personalities and needs. Actualmente vivo con dos perros: una yorkie hembra de 10 años, muy tranquila y en su propio mundo (como una abuelita dulce), y un morkie macho de 5 años, muy juguetón, ladra a todo el que llega a casa pero cuando lo acarician se calma y se pone alegre y como loco con cualquier visita. A pesar de ladrar mucho, es súper amigable y se lleva bien con todos. Cuidar perros no es solo un trabajo para mí, es algo que realmente disfruto. Me encanta conocer sus personalidades, sus rutinas y adaptarme a lo que necesiten para que se sientan cómodos, seguros y felices mientras tú no estás. Ya sea que necesiten paseos , juegos, compañía tranquila o una mezcla de todo, estoy aquí para hacerlos sentir como en casa. Mis perros son como mis hijos, y los cuido con mucho amor y atención. Lo mismo haré con tu perrito, asegurándome de que se sienta bien cuidado, querido y cómodo en todo momento. …………….. I currently live with two dogs: a 10-year-old female Yorkie who is very calm and in her own little world (like a sweet grandma), and a 5-year-old male Morkie who’s very playful. He barks at everyone who comes to the house, but once you pet him, he calms down and gets super excited and happy with any visitor. Even though he barks a lot, he's very friendly and gets along with everyone. Taking care of dogs isn’t just a job for me – it’s something I truly enjoy. I love getting to know their personalities, their routines, and adapting to whatever they need to feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away. Whether they need walks, playtime, quiet company, or a mix of everything, I'm here to make them feel at home. My dogs are like my children, and I take care of them with lots of love and attention. I’ll do the same with your pup, making sure they feel well cared for, loved, and comfortable at all times. Tu perrito nunca estará solo . Siempre hay alguien en casa, y si necesita atención constante, me aseguro de que no pase ni una hora sin compañía. Vivo con mi esposo, mi hija adulta y mi madre, y todos en casa amamos a los animales, por lo que tu perro será mimado por toda la familia. Contamos con un patio cercado con césped, ideal para jugar y hacer sus necesidades al aire libre. Pero también tenemos una zona cerrada y segura si prefieres que no salga al césped .
Mis propios perros están acostumbrados a hacer sus necesidades tanto afuera como en pañales de entrenamiento dentro de casa, así que si tu perrito sigue esa rutina, también nos adaptamos sin problema. Y si tu perro está acostumbrado a dormir en la cama, ¡aquí también está permitido! Queremos que se sienta cómodo y querido, como si estuviera con su propia familia. Sigo al pie de la letra todas las indicaciones que me des. Sé lo importante que es mantener sus rutinas, horarios y costumbres, por eso siempre me adapto para que tu perrito no sienta el cambio. Si tienes preguntas o quieres conocernos antes, no dudes en escribirme. ¡Será un gusto recibir a tu peludo como parte de nuestra familia! …………………. Your dog will never be alone. There's always someone at home, and if they need constant attention, I make sure they never go more than an hour without company. I live with my husband, my adult daughter, and my mom, and we all love animals — so your dog will be spoiled by the whole family. We have a fenced grassy yard, perfect for playing and going potty outside. But we also have a closed, secure area if you prefer your dog not to go on the grass. My own dogs are used to going potty both outside and on training pads indoors, so if your pup follows that routine, we can easily adapt. And if your dog is used to sleeping on the bed — that’s totally allowed here too! We want them to feel comfortable and loved, just like they would with their own family. I follow all your instructions carefully. I know how important it is to stick to their routines, schedules, and habits, which is why I always adapt to make sure your pup doesn’t feel the change. If you have any questions or would like to meet us beforehand, feel free to message me. I’d be happy to welcome your furry friend as part of our family!

About: I’ve cared for pets belonging to friends, family, and people close to me over the years. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and temperaments and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and supervision. My schedule is flexible, and I do my best to accommodate clients with advance notice. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week. I have a secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs in a safe, supervised environment. I prioritize communication, routine, and attentive care to make sure every pet feels comfortable and safe while away from home.

About: Hey, I get it! leaving your dog with someone else can feel scary. As a dog owner myself, for my whole life, I would be picky too. Dogs are family, and you deserve to feel sure that your pup is safe, loved, and cared for. My dogs get love and attention every day, and I would treat your dog like one of my own. I pay attention to body language, energy, and behavior because I believe a happy dog is a calm and comfortable dog. Whether your pup loves to play, needs space, or just wants a calm presence nearby, I’ll respect their personality and routine. My goal is to make them feel safe, relaxed, and part of my family while they’re with me. I am currently studying to become a teacher and looking for part-time opportunities in education, so I have a very flexible schedule right now. This gives me plenty of time to care for pets, go on walks, play with them, and give them attention throughout the day. I am generally available during the week and on weekends, and I can adjust depending on your pet’s routine and needs. I know how important consistency is for dogs, so I always try to follow their usual schedule for walks, meals, potty breaks, and rest time as closely as possible. I live in a spacious home with a fenced yard, where dogs have room to move, relax, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. I have four dogs of my own: two Golden Retrievers, one mixed-breed dog, and one Pekingese. They are loving, friendly, and not aggressive. Like many dogs, they may feel a little curious or anxious at first when meeting a new dog, so I always believe in slow introductions, patience, and supervision. Our daily routine includes opening the yard in the morning for potty time, short walks around the neighborhood, playtime, fresh water, meals, and lots of love. My dogs are used to regular walks, sometimes up to an hour, so I am comfortable caring for active dogs as well. I always focus on safety, calm energy, and making every pet feel respected and cared for.

You can tell that Densy is an animal lover at heart. She has such a calm and kind energy. My dog didn't even want to leave after he stayed with her. I'm so happy to know I can leave my pup with her in the future, it's so hard to trust someone with your fur baby that you know will take care of them like you would. Would 10/10 recommend!

About: Animal lover, pet-less at the moment, but with lots of animals in my life. I have plenty of love, patience, cuddles, and care to give to your furry family member, big or small. I know how important and stressful finding a reliable place or a trustworthy person is. For over 20 years now neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to take care of their beloved pets at their house or mine. I have a very welcoming home with couches to surf, plenty of laps to sit on, lots of treats(or not), walks and playtime. My backyard is enclosed and the community has lots of green areas, several parks, fun walks and a dog park just a car ride away. I don’t mind traveling. I have taken care of two potbelly pigs, two donkeys, a squirrel, and two cats up in Archer, FL. Five cats and an African Gray parrot in Orlando. Several cats and dogs at their homes and mine, and whenever I can, I escape to my friend’s farm to help with the care of their horses. My grand-dog, April, loves to visit and get spoiled! Give me the opportunity to show you how well and at home your baby will feel! I work part-time from home so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding 7 days a week. I set up beds in the living room and in my office. I also do pottery, and I have my wheel in an enclosed patio with a rug right next to it for my special helpers! I do a walk in the morning and another one about an hour after breakfast followed by some playtime. Then I do bathroom breaks every two hours or as needed. After noon, I work on my pottery and do some gardening in my fenced backyard. Rest assured your pet will never be outside unsupervised. Late afternoon I take them for a longer walk, a bathroom break after dinner, and again before bed. I make sure your baby is active and well exercised, with plenty of time for play, rest, and cuddles! And of course, I will also follow any schedule or routine they may have. I have a pet friendly home with an enclosed patio and fenced backyard, but rest assured your pup will never be left outside unsupervised. Your pet is welcomed on our couches, our laps, and any part of the house they wish to be in. If I have to go out, and no one else is home, I will leave the TV on with relaxing music or pet friendly content playing. I don’t own a crate, but you’re welcome to bring one if your baby is used to staying or sleeping in one. They are welcome to sleep in any of our bedrooms. I usually don’t allow them on my bed but my daughter will be ever so happy to oblige! If I’m caring for your beloved at your home, I will follow any rules you have set up for them, even sleeping with them if necessary!

My fluffy pet came back looking well-groomed and relaxed after spending the day running around the well-manicured lawn and frolicking with furry friends, getting pampered, bathed, blow dried, and lots of attention. We can’t wait to go back. Thank you for the amazing experience.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Richmond West

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Richmond West on Rover is $33.3 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 2,385 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Richmond West. 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 Richmond West 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 FL 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 2,385 sitters in Richmond West, 88% 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.
