Wow! So much love for Denny. Sally made the dogs homemade treats. Sally sent lots of updates and I was so happy to get great photos of him having fun.

My dog LOVES Shanelle and her dog, Ray. He goes 2x a week and is SO excited when I drop him off and exhausted when I pick him up after work. Shanelle sends me constant pictures and videos while I’m at work and I feel so comfortable/ relieved knowing he is there enjoying his day. Highly recommend 🐾

Easy and flexible to work with, and my pup had a great stay! Fenced area is not big enough for my greyhound to run but received multiple walks throughout the day instead. Loved all the pics and updates!

Suzanne is excellent. She took care of our puppy like her own. He was always happy to go and when I picked up. Suzanne made sure all care instructions were followed to the dot. I am glad we could find her. Will always contact her when we need to.

Thomas took great care of my pup and he had a great time. Thomas sent plenty of updates and was very communicative and quick to respond. I could tell when I picked my dog up that he had not felt stressed or anxious, which is a huge relief.

About: I've spent 12 years raising and caring for my family's two dogs, even though they're now in a different state. Since recently moving to Atlanta, I am hoping to be around dogs more since mine are so far! I love spending time with dogs and making sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. I bring that same care to every dog I walk. I currently am working from home near Ponce City Market. I love going for walks before and after work as well as during my lunch break. I have a park near by and the beltline to get dogs plenty of exercise! Any special care your pup needs, please let me know.

About: I have had a dog growing up ever since I was a little girl. I have always puppy sat for past neighbors and family members and treat them as my own! I love dogs, always have and now have my own Bernese mountain dog and chocolate lab! Very available and flexible with time to help care for your fur babies! I can provide as many potty breaks as needed- also have a dog park within our apartment neighborhood! As always I will treat any home I enter with the greatest respect and caution and will welcome mine to any dog I dog sit!

We appreciate the communication and flexibility provided esp with a late scramble with another sitter this past couple of weeks. And, most importantly, we were confident our big fur-baby was happy and taken care of with walks and more!

He’s FABULOUS! My dog has not been boarded for years and coming to Tom’s home was easy for him. Tom took the time to meet us before he came to stay long term, so when Max saw Tom he was all happy tag wags! This is a miraculous event. I expected Max to be shy and back away, but he trotted into the house like he was an old friend. I am so grateful for Tom!

Alec and Aishu, and their lovely dog Winnie, looked after my girl Nova beautifully. She can be a little skittish at first in unfamiliar situations, but she soon settled down and relaxed! She had an amazing time exploring, going for a long walk and playing with her new pal. I appreciated that photos were sent throughout the day.

A Wonderful Experience for Panda! Dan was absolutely amazing with my puppy, Panda! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt comfortable knowing he was in great hands. Dan took such great care of him, sent me pictures throughout the day, and even took Panda on runs so he could get plenty of exercise and have a great time. The sweetest part is that Panda really found a new best friend in Dan — or as I like to say, his new bear friend! 🐻❤️ You can tell Dan genuinely cares about the dogs and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, safe, and well cared for. Thank you, Dan, for treating Panda like one of your own. We truly appreciate you, and Panda can't wait to see his new friend again! 🐾❤️ Highly recommend Dan to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their fur baby!

Our two boxers just stayed with Kevin for a full day of daycare & we were very happy with their stay. Kevin was flexible with the drop off/pick up & kept us updated throughout the day with pictures. Both pups came back nice & tired from playing in his back yard & going on walks.

Camille and Joshua did a great job taking care of Thunder! They walked him and sent photos and updates daily. I could tell Thunder had a great time at their house. He’d wag his tail when I asked him if he wanted to go over to play with Johnny and the children. I would definitely ask them to help watch Thunder again!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Riverlea

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Riverlea on Rover is $29.96 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 657 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Riverlea. 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 Riverlea 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 657 sitters in Riverlea, 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.
