About: I'm available all day to your furry friend! I am a stay at home wife with a consistent schedule and patient with all types of personalities. Being Rover, I've had experience from helping a mama cat give birth to her babies to senior dog care with medication. I love what I do and grateful to help owners feel at ease while they are away from their pets. I require that your pet be flea free and on a monthly flea and tick prevention. Make sure all immunizations are up to date. A clean pet is a happy pet! :) My priority in the morning is to make sure everybody is fed. (Not like they let me forget since they are the ones who poke my face to wake me up). I make sure the water bowl is clean and filled up. I am a stay-at-home wife so your furry friends will have all my attention. I'm usually cleaning, baking, cooking, gardening, or going on strolls/gym time. My husband is also a HUGE animal lover so your baby/babies will be getting 2x the love when he gets home. Usually at night, it's game time, movie time, or just hanging around with the cats. The cats usually always sleep with us, but if not, they sleep on the couch. I live in a three bedroom house with a big backyard, but one of the rooms is no pet allowed. My husband and I have a shaded patio that is gated with chicken wire so our cat friends can also enjoy the outside. The patio is separated with a gate-door, so if we are hosting a dog they can enjoy at the same time with no problems. The extra room we have allows our guest/s to have their own room with their own window. They are free to walk through the house and make themselves comfortable.
About: We have owned & loved several dogs over the years including training 1 to be a viable therapy dog for nursing home visits to my mom. I am home most of the day, M-Sun and have the time to love and care for a dog, and make it feel at home, while dog parent(s) are away. Our dogs are considered our furry family members and I want your dog to feel that way too! My yard is fenced and our home is clean and safe! I ensure dog(s) can go out regularly for potty breaks, and I love walking them too.
About: I have worked in a well renowned and amazing shelter & animal rescue (no kill shelter) for 5 years. I’ve got plenty of experience with both dogs and cats. I’ve also got certifications in fear free animal training, along with helping train many dogs for Leader dogs for the blind. I do have a dog of my own that is super good with other dogs, and cats. He’s a very chill guy. Please make sure that your dog is also good with other dogs if you are booking a boarding with me please, I’d greatly appreciate it! I’m recently moved to the area, and currently working part time. So I have a lot of extra free time, my time is very flexible. I consider animals family, so taking care of them properly how their family ask is very important in my eyes. So taking care of them will be followed directly as stated. 😊
“Thank you Kathleen for keeping my Brownee for daycare. I appreciate your prompt responses during her stay, the updates you shared, and your attentiveness to the different personalities of the pups in your care. We look forward to Brownee’s next visit.”
“Destiny was a great baby sitter for Chanel! She provided me updates & pictured throughout the day. I appreciate her taking such great care of Chanel today 🩷”
About: I provide loving, attentive care for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to wise seniors. I excel at creating calm, joyful routines, ensuring exercise, companionship, and safety. House training? Patiently handled when needed. Every pup gets personalized love, attention, and care as if they were my own. Unless your dog has a special diet, kibble and treats will be provided 🐶 (if needed). Pet care is central to my daily and weekly routine. I structure my time around animal care, including my own pets, making availability and consistency a priority. Pets in my care are treated like family. I provide in-home care in a peaceful space with consistent routines, attentive supervision, affection, and respect for each pet’s unique needs.
“Brenda was awesome! Flexible with her time. Her daughter is truly a small dog lover. She cried when I left with my dog. She sent me photos and videos and I knew Lacey was in good hands. If I’m ever back in Texas Brenda would be the one I would call for a sitter.”
“Megan was awesome and very welcoming. It was my first time using Rover and she made sure my 11 week old puppy had a comfortable stay and also got to play with her own puppy. When I picked her up she was a lot more confident and I could tell she had a fun time. Great stay and we will book doggy day care again for sure.”
About: Choose me as your dog sitter for 23 years’ experience, EMT training, CPR certification, and true animal devotion, providing safe, dependable, loving care every single time. As a self-employed worker, I set my own hours, giving me the flexibility to provide pets consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day and night. I prioritize safety by following each pet’s routine, monitoring their behavior, and keeping spaces clean. I build trust through gentle handling, consistent communication, and a calm, comfortable environment.
“Monica is the best! Very prompt and courteous in replying to messages, and very personable overall. Our dogs had a blast with her, even our grumpy Frenchie! She is very experienced and adept at handling multiple dogs at once, and has systems for separating pups if needed. We will definitely be booking with Monica again for our doggy needs.”
“I had an outstanding experience. Her communication was excellent from start to finish—clear, consistent, and always reassuring. My dogs were so happy and relaxed when I got home, which tells me everything I need to know. She took amazing care of them, paid attention to all their little quirks, and made sure they were comfortable and loved the whole time. Truly a fantastic sitter. Highly recommend.”
“We used Ernest for Doggy Day Care. Ernest is very professional. More importantly, he is very affectionate towards dogs and very easy to work with. It was a very pleasant experience.”
About: I have been handling dogs for about 9 years now. I currently offer In-Home dog grooming where I bring the salon to the comfort of your home. I work for myself so my schedule can be pretty flexible. Most grooming appointments are scheduled between 10:30am to 5pm. I will accommodate walk requests as best as possible. If walk requests are after 7pm (after dark) I may have a Buddy along to accompany me during the walk for safety but I will always inform my client prior to accepting requests. I have a lot of senior doggos so I am very attentive and report anything out of the ordinary in regards to their behavior.
“Mya did such a great job with my girl Mina on such short notice! Will definitely be using her as our sitter going forward. She had such a nice time with her dog as well & was very caring for her while she was in heat changing her diaper often. Could not suggest her as a sitter more!”
About: I have had dogs and cats all my life including a pet rat. For some reason animals tend to like me and I like them as well. I have had to put down three pets in the last two years, very hard thing to do. I had 4 dogs and two cats, sadly down to one each. I’m retired and available anytime during the day. If there are some odd hours it can be discussed. If you pet needs me to walk them and or clean a litter box that will be no problem. I will be glad to send photos during my visit if needed. My yard is fully fenced with rod iron fencing, if the dog is small they might get out but doubtful. I prefer not to keep your pet at my house at this time.
About: I got my very own dog when I was 10 years old. Domino was a dalmatian and really just set the ball rolling for my love of all dogs! I have had at least one dog since, the most at one time was 4! We had Chihuahua named Pancho, Boxer named Pepper, Pit bull named Petey and a foster Mix named Ziggy! I would adopt all the dogs if I had enough space. I have dog sat for friends and thought this would be a great way to keep Hobbs social while still being an only child :) I currently work remotely and am available for 24/7 care in my home. I have one kennel but space for you to bring your own if your baby is more comfortable there. However, this is a dog friendly home so pups are of course allowed on furniture and to sleep in bed. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly boxer mix that LOVES all other dogs and thinks everyone is a friend! We go on short walks in the morning and evening while it's not so hot! During the day I always accompany potty breaks and encourage play time. We have plenty of toys, balls and bones that Hobbs loves to share.
“Thank you Steph and Calvin. Wonderful dog loving people and they took great care of my best friend. Being new to boarding, I was worried the separion anxiety might be too much, but I pulled through. Rinnie dog did even better, he was happy around Steph and Calvin from meetup all the way to pickup, where he had to circle back to say goodbye before leaving.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Saginaw
Araselly was an absolute delight and such a big help! We came in from out of town to meet with friends and idk what we would’ve done without her! She was very friendly, she responded quickly to my request for a sitter, we had great communication, and I felt very comfortable and confident that my baby Iris was going to be safe and cared for with her! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! 🤍🙌
Our Frenchie, Penelope, was well taken care of by Taylor! Our dog was loved on, played with and kept safe and we will definitely have Taylor watch her again in the future. We also received photos throughout the day of our dog which was a nice bonus. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Saginaw on Rover is $36.63 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 2,322 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Saginaw. 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 Saginaw 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 TX 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 2,322 sitters in Saginaw, 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.
