“I wish I could give Nancy more than five stars! I’m a very nervous dog mom and she is exactly what I was looking for and so thankful I found! Takes incredible care of the pups, gives amazing updates and sends pics. She eased my mind right away and my dogs clearly loved her. Highly recommend Nancy! (But don’t want her to get too busy to take my pups 😁)”
“We had such an amazing experience with Laurie! She took such good care of Theo today. She took him for an early morning walk before it got too hot outside. She sent lots of pictures and updated us throughout the day. She made it very easy to communicate and coordinate care for Theo!”
“Kevin was absolutely wonderful to work with. He was so flexible and my dog was excited to come back every morning. She was well taken care of and I was completely at ease. Very much hope to work with him again.”
“Mindy is amazing! My Haylee is a senior dog and comes with fear of unknown and separation anxiety. Mindy showed what a dog lover she is by taking personal time with Haylee and thinking how to make her more comfortable. And she out Mom at ease with frequent check ins and pics. We already scheduled Haylee’s next stay w Mindy.”
“Communication was great, and we really appreciated the photos and updates while we were away. Rocky seemed happy and content when we picked him up, which gave us so much peace of mind. Will book again!”
About: If you’re the type of pet parent who wants their pet cuddled, loved on, groomed, and genuinely doted on, I’m your person. Animals have always been a part of my life, and I’ve never known a time without them. I’m naturally very loving and protective, and I take pet care personally. I treat pets like family, not like a job, and I genuinely enjoy making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. As a pet owner myself, I know how stressful it can be to trust someone else with your animal. I keep that in mind whenever I’m caring for someone else’s pet — I’m the type who will happily flood your phone with pictures and keep communication open so you always know what’s going on. Honestly, it’s a win-win: I get to enjoy spending time with your pet, and you get peace of mind while you’re away. Im currently a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule, Im home throughout the day and able to accommodate drop-ins and last minute request when needed/ Your fur baby will be cared for with genuine care and close attention in a setting where their comfort and routines are respected. . My home is equipped with multiple indoor cameras to provide an added layer of supervision and I also have a quiet, low-stimulus den when needed to help visiting pets acclimate comfortably and reduce stress.
“This was my first time using Rover. The process was very easy. It was also the first time leaving my anxious dog with strangers. Rossana was wonderful - she was confident, calm and reassuring.. She and Kurt are obviously dog lovers and experienced pet sitters. They kept me informed during the day and sent two photos which put me at ease. Great.experience!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a little girl. I’ve watched friends and families dogs, fed, walked, bathed, etc. and now I am looking to expand my pet care services. Prefer hypoallergenic dogs and dogs that weigh under 40 lbs, will consider all requests depending on the dog. I always had dogs since I can remember. I look forward to hearing from you! I am home full time and can cater to your dogs specific needs. I can let them out often and we can take walks, and play! I have a fenced in yard, I can allow as much outside or indoor time as your dog is use to. My house is minimal with a lot of room for your dog to explore and or just chill out and have a calm and relaxed environment.
“Christopher was awesome! He made the very early 5 AM dropoff a breeze even with Champ having a zoomy in the living room and the pickup was easy too and Champ slept like a baby all night so I would definitely recommend!!”
“We booked with Gregory last minute for day care sitting and he was more than accommodating. Our pups had no problem getting acquainted and looked very happy with their day care experience after picking them up. We will definitely be booking with Gregory again.”
“Much needed SOS doggy daycare. She jumped right in. She took great care of them. I was able to take care of my situation all day long and they were in great hands with rebooking an instant whenever I need doggy daycare in an emergency or not thank you Carolyn for taking such great care of them Katie and Kate King Charles”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Rio Verde
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,081 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Rio Verde. 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 Rio Verde 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 AZ 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 2,081 sitters in Rio Verde, 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.
