“We tried the drop in service today and it gave me such piece of mind knowing Dash was entertained rather than sitting at home alone. Tommy was quick to respond and very accommodating. Dash came home happy and sleepy. A++”
“Blaze Amik always enjoys his time with their family! There are always plenty of photos where he is playing and living his best life. I appreciate the love they show all the dogs, it really makes it reassuring knowing that they care about our fur babies!”
“Sequoia took very good care of our anxious pup to make him feel right at home. She provided great photos and thorough details from the day. We will gladly have our Bruce stay with her again!”
“Another awesome day with Damon and his doggos. Uki always leaves so tired and happy. She’s still tired the next day and has really blossomed in her social skills.”
“Allen was very responsive from the time I booked a meet & greet to when he took care of my dog, Kau Kau. He also was very patient with her since she does have some separation anxiety and I appreciated that very much. I definitely would recommend Allen as a doggy daycare option. Thanks.”
“Chelsea has been awesome with my pups, and they love playing with her dogs as well. Their stay has been great. They’re tuckered out and happy every day I’ve picked them up after daycare 💞”
“Awesome experience! Susie was super quick to respond and very flexible with my timing. She sent pictures with updates and kept me informed while I was gone. My dog was happy and tired when I picked him up after the day.”
“Amazing!!! My girl had such a great day. I appreciate the care and ability to perfect her with someone she enjoyed staying with. You guys are awesome”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. I grew up in an animal loving family and as a mother of two I have passed the love for dogs, particularly, down to my own kids. We know that our pets are family members and understand that their well-being, happiness, and comfort is of utmost importance! I am the go to dog sitter for friends and family. I have cared for everything from puppies to seniors. Our family is a safe haven for your dog and you can rest assured that they are getting the attention, care, and respect they individually need. I work from home. My rescue dog is by my side all day. He’s the sweetest guy who gets along with any and all dogs. Any age, breed, or gender is welcome. The pups have attentive attention, full reign of our cozy home with doggy door, ample fenced backyard, and friendly neighborhood to walk, if desired! Dogs like their routine and I am understanding of adhering to any restrictions or schedules needed.
“Miss Pickles and Ginger had a wonderful day with Amber. They must have played hard because as soon as we picked them up and got them in the car, they fell sound asleep. Amber was very easy to communicate with and fast with her responses during the scheduling process. We will definitely use Amber again in the future!”
“Serena is great! I love that whenever I leave Theo in her care, I know he’s going to get nice and tired playing with Nugget, and I appreciate the updates I get throughout the day. 10/10 definitely recommend and we will keep coming to Serena!”
“Maggie is the first sitter I used on Rover and I am definitely going to utilize her services again. She cares for each pet as if it were her own. My dog absolutely loved Maggie's spacious backyard.”
“Tara did a fantastic job with Huey! She was easy to communicate with and make a plan, even though I asked her to dog sit less with less than 24 hours notice. She sent lots of pictures throughout the day to ensure that Huey was having a good time. They even went on a long walk together! When I picked him up he was happy and content. I can tell that Huey was very comfortable with Tara, and I would highly recommend her caretaking!”
About: I have been caring for a variety of animals since I was young. I grew up with dogs and participated in 4-H for 10 years, where I worked with and showed dogs, horses, and goats at the fair. I have also provided dog and cat sitting services on and off for many years, including walking, playing with, and feeding animals. My experience includes caring for a puppy under one year old, where I helped with potty training, as well as an elderly husky who required additional care and attention. While working at a zoo, I also regularly handled a variety of animals, including snakes, turtles, birds, armadillos, and more. Overall, I have experience with animals of all ages and needs, including puppy training and senior animal care. I am currently planning to attend school part time (online classes) so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet(s) in between homework assignments! I have a large yard with 5-foot fencing surrounding the entire property. Depending on each pet’s needs, I enjoy taking dogs for walks around the neighborhood or on adventures such as a shorter hike or walk in a nearby park. My goal with every pet I care for is to make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and leave their time with me as a positive experience. I have a lot of experience reading pets’ individual needs and understanding what helps build trust and a positive relationship, whether that means treats, playtime, quality time, patience, or simply providing a calm and comfortable space.
“Lisa and Brian got along amazingly with our two pups! One of our younger dogs can be a lot to love (he thinks he's smaller than he really is) and they embraced him fully. Both dogs returned home tired and happy after a fun day of backyard running and snuggles. Lisa was also super communicative and sent lots of photos. We'll definitely reach out to them again!”
“Thank you for watching Lilith! This was our first time using Rover, I was pretty anxious after drop off but your messages reassured me that things would be ok.”
“It’s clear that Christopher and his family genuinely love dogs! He is easygoing, an excellent communicator, and incredibly accommodating. Mason felt comfortable right away and absolutely loves going to doggy daycare at Christopher’s. We have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in such caring hands.”
“We had a great experience with Lauren! She was able to take our young dog on short notice which made things so much easier for us. Tali came back happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great time. Would absolutely book again!”

Macey was able to assist with our pups last minute. She was absolutely wonderful and easy to work with. She took our dogs on long walks and very attentive to them. They were happy and tired when we brought them home. We would definitely use her again and highly recommend her services!
Briana has a lovely mellow vibe and my pup seemed so happy with her. Briana is very responsive and I appreciate that so very much. I know Elio can be a handful since he's young and has an enthusiastic personality but she had a great day with him. We will book again for sure!
We’ve come back to Ben again and again for his stellar care. Our 5 month old puppy is excited to spend time at Ben’s and we can rest assured knowing he’s being loved and attended to. Ben sends lots of photos and spends ample time with our pup throughout the day. Would highly recommend Ben to anyone who’s nervous to send their pup off. Ben has been our saving grace!!

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Riverwood on Rover is $30.53 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Riverwood 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 OR 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 1,809 sitters in Riverwood, 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.
