“First time using app based on local recommendation. Traveling with an extended stay. Had a meet and greet with Jackie before doggie day care to settle my nerves. Warm and friendly and bonded with Ranger immediately. Met her at house next day for drop off and she was very attentive asking questions about allergies and concerns. Felt very comfortable and at ease with leaving Ranger there for a “staycation”. He settled in quickly and Jackie kept me updated with text and pics and how he was doing throughout the day. The pics say it all. Highly recommended and hope we have another opportunity in the future.”
“We had a great experience with Hannah and her family! She was extremely flexible on drop off/pick up, sent updates and sent some great pics of Maggie (Boxer) throughout the day! Would highly recommend and we will definitely use her again if we are in the Northern Idaho/Eastern Washington area.”
“Travis and his wife are awesome. They were extremely flexible and kept us informed with texts & pictures of how Lula was doing. Their beautiful home and fenced yard were a plus. We would definitely recommend and use Travis again for our next stay to CDA area.”
About: We have lots of experience with dogs and cats from youngsters, to active, to frail seniors. Pet friendly home with a clean and comfortable fenced yard. My husband and I are semi-retired, active family. At home most every day. We play in the backyard and take walks in our peaceful neighborhood. We have a lovely private fenced backyard. We have room for your crate or kennel and we also have a pet play pen if needed.
“We were traveling to Waterton National Park of Canada by way of Coeur d’Alene. We wanted a place to leave our sweet pup Georgie to allow for flexibility with our friends. I cannot tell you how happy we were to have found Kara. I could tell the minute I walked in the door that Georgie would be a happy camper. On day two she ran to the front door and couldn’t wait to get in the house. We will definitely use Aunty Kara if we’re ever traveling in this area again. I highly recommend her.”
“Kelly and Tyler were great accommodating our dog Bee. They asked lots of questions to make sure she was comfortable and offered great options for her. Highly recommend them for anything animal related!”
“Luna had such a great visit! Ashley’s Labradoodle and Luna the Goldendoodle hit it off in their Huge backyard. Perfect. Ashley is extremely attentive and an easygoing. Will definitely be back.”
About: I've worked with many breeds of dogs. Mostly small to mid-size dogs with a variety of traits. Mostly working dogs namely Blue Heelers & Huskys. I tend to live an active lifestyle and that means hiking/walking/and lots of exercise. Rest assured both me and your pooch will be getting a good workout! In the past I've facilitated overnight lodging for dogs, and temporary stays of up to a few days. Be noted I do not currently have a large open or fenced in yard. I work with neighbors and friends pets on quite a regular basis! I regularly feed, train, walk & care for pets when away or on business! I work from home so this environment provides a perfect spot for pets to be nurtured & played with consistently! I always check prior to booking any special exercise and or dietary needs of your pet. Ensuring door remain locked when inside and timer's are set for when pets receive food upon client preference. Safety is of the upmost priority, so I will discuss a full plan and schedule so you know where you pup is and his progress while away. I will send regular check in photos to provide accountability for myself and the clients well being.
“We were in a pickle! We drove from Black Diamond WA to Elk Point ID and thought our dog would be ok in a hotel room while we attended a wedding. Our Yorkie is very spoiled and wasn’t having it! Carolyn saved our butts last minute and watched him whole we went to the wedding. Frank had fun and was just fine when we picked him up. Well cared for home with a fenced yard. Thank you so much Carolyn!”
“Robin had a great house setup for our puppy to come and play. Her yard.was fully fenced, with two different areas, and her dogs were so kind. My puppy really enjoyed playing with her dogs and using their beds for some serious energy recharging. I would highly recommend Robin to care for your pets, I know we will use her again if we are.in the area.”
About: I discovered my love for animals when my mom rescued a Shiba Inu shortly after my dad died. Since then, I've made every effort to learn as much as I can about cats and dogs, including going to professional grooming school and I'm currently working on becoming a certified dog trainer. Most of my experience with cats has come from my sister and her roommate, but I love cats just as much as I love dogs I do have another part time job, but scheduling is flexible so I'll have plenty of time in the day to check on your buddy! I'm very conscious of their safety and always use a leash, always make sure fenced areas are secure, and that there's no toxic plants around them. My own have a history of bolting/running away, so these things have become 2nd nature for me.
“Teri is wonderful! Great communication and lots of photos of dogs having fun! My dog adores her and gets so excited to visit. When I pick her up, she just naps in the back seat because she's so tired from playing all day.”
“I highly recommend Stacy and her partner to everyone for doggy day care! My beagle became comfortable at their house very quickly and enjoys the company of their friendly dog Blue 😊. Stacy also sends great updates and photos during the day and has taken Maisie for some beautiful walks. Thanks for treating Maisie so well, we will definitely be back!”
“Georgia was amazing with my dog! She was excellent with communication and easy to work with and very flexible with my schedule. I highly would recommend her. She treated my dog like family and took great care of him.”
“This was an incredible introduction to Rover! My puppy (and kids) didn’t want to leave Leland and Lindsey’s house. What a beautiful family who were so sweet to our pup! Thanks for a great day!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Rockford Bay
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 274 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Rockford Bay. 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 Rockford Bay 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 ID 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 274 sitters in Rockford Bay, 94% 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.
