“Daisy is the very best! My puppy Shiloh had the best time playing with Piper and the other pups. Daisy sent frequent messages, photos, and videos to keep me updated throughout the day. I recommend Daisy to anyone looking for pet care!”
“Luiza took amazing care of my pup. She clearly made Zoey’s care and well being a priority . I felt very confident and safe leaving Zoey with her and will certainly contact her again if we are in the area .”
“First time dog parent. First time Rover app user. So glad Monty & I connected with Raquel. From first point of contact, meet and greet, day one and day two of doggy care was absolutely amazing. Raquel is a genuine, authentic, dog care provider. Communication ✅. Care Expectations Met ✅. Very Responsive✅. Professional✅. Personable✅. She’s passionate about caring for dogs and it is shown through her attentiveness to the well-being of dogs while under her care. Raquel’s sitter etiquette is superb. To see her love on Monty at drop-off and pick up gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was being left in good hands. To make things even better she shared updates via pics and videos throughout the day on each doggy daycare visit. Hands down, we’ll be re-booking Raquel. #RaquelROCKS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I like that I was able to take a tour, inside and out, of where my girls would be during daycare. The property was kept clean and well maintained. I appreciated the pictures and updates throughout the day. I had an overall very positive experience and would definitely recommend.”
“We left two our two Australian Shepherd mixes with Paola for the day while attending a family reunion from out of town and were happy with their care. The dogs were comfortable with her and enjoyed relaxing in her comfy air conditioned home on a hot day. She sent photos and sent them home with cute report pages about their adventures.”

About: Update: I will not be available May 18-25, and Jun 2-14 I love dogs!! I've fostered many dogs and volunteered at many shelters. I've had seniors and even fostered one with spina bifida. My first two loves were English Bulldogs. I have lots of experience with them and know that smooshy face breeds are much more delicate than other breeds. I absolutly love them! I'm not good with extremely energtic dogs, but can handle anything else. I am semi-retired. I currently work part time on Friday and Sundays with an occasional third day, so I am home a lot. I have plenty of time to devote to your pooch. In my home, I care for your pet just as I care for mine. Of course, with your direction implemented also. I do have a pool, so I will need to know how your dog is around pools, or if they have zero experience with pools, I will need to know that as well.
“This was our first time using Rover and Leigh was an awesome puppy sitter! We will definitely be using her again, it's nice to know our dog is well taken care of if we need to go out of town.”
About: I love animals of all sorts. I have one dog named Kate. Kate is a Malshi (Maltese and Shihtzu Mix). She is our baby and spoiled through and through and gets along with other dogs and cats. :) We provide leashes and clean up bags unless requested otherwise. We are a family who adores a variety of cats and dogs and love to spend time with them. We offer walks every 2-3 hours in addition to outdoor one on one play time. We would love to have your baby with us. If there are any requirements we need to know about please let us know so we can make sure your baby has the most comfortable stay with us. Thank you for considering me and my family.

“Isabela was able to accommodate us last minute on a holiday, which was super helpful to our situation! Our dog had a great time, and came back to us super happy. Thank you!”
About: Hey, I’m Aubree! I am a life long animal lover with lots of experience caring for all different types of animals. These pets have ranged from dogs and cats to even goats, horses and other farm animals. I am a stay at home mom and like to pet sit in my free time. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 goats, and a horse of my own so I definitely understand the care and love it takes to make them happy. My favorite thing about animals is how individual they are and how much personality each pet has. I would love the opportunity to be able to care for your pet. Please message with any questions or if you are interested in having me care for your pet. I am currently a stay at home mom so my schedule is pretty flexible! It allows me to be available for pet care all throughout the day. During meet and greets, I always like to discuss the best ways to interact with your pets! Each animal is so individual so it allows me to care for them in the best way possible.
“Exactly what we expected from their bio on Rover. Courteous, professional and punctual. We look forward to them taking care of our boys for a long time. Thank you Janece and Matthew.”
About: I’ve always been around dogs. Since I was born until now! Its ranged from doberman, beagle, to now german Shepard. Im qualified to care for any dog no matter the size! I work full time currently BUT I do work from home so I would not mind a little friend by my side! I’ll make sure they’re fed and with enough water. We can schedule walks since I also need some breaks throughout the day! My yard is not fenced yet. I have one cat! so it will be me, Hallee and your cute pup!(and maybe a friend sometimes). I do not mind going out with them for a walk(s) throughout the day at all! I would love to have your dog get all the sniffs he can get from the neighborhood!(safely of course!)
About: We are a military family, we’ve moved around quite a bit and have opened our home to so many dogs in so many different states. I have 3 kids who are used to animals (especially bigger dogs). We have a private yard (unfenced, leads and leashes used and always supervised). We recently welcomed a dog permanently into our home so we do have one female dog in the house, she is crated when needed and very friendly otherwise. I’m home all day and would love a buddy or two to join us from time to time! I only ask that dogs are kid friendly! We don’t mind animals on furniture but will adhere to any at home rules you may set (if you don’t allow them to do certain things at home, I won’t deter any training and let them do it here and vice versa!). Crate trained dogs are preferred but definitely not required! Just know a lot of dogs may do better in a new setting by having their own spaces to retreat to! I’m a stay at home mom, other than school drop off/pick up & errands, I’m home to care for pets in my home or visit a pet in their home We treat all pets like they're part of the family. When it comes to caring for pets, I'm all about creating a cozy, safe, fun environment for them. From belly rubs to fetch sessions, I'd make sure they feel right at home. We live on a private road with plenty of space to run around. Whether it's a scratch behind the ears or a tasty treat, I'd give them all the love and attention they deserve. And you can bet I'd be sending you cute photos and updates to let you know they're in good hands!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Ridgeway
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 256 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Ridgeway. 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 Ridgeway 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 SC 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 256 sitters in Ridgeway, 78% 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.
