About: Hi, my name is Melinda of bark and stroll. I love animals. I have my own animal and I love taking care of animals inside my home or your home. I am retired, and I have plenty of time to take care of the animals. I love playing with them and taking them on nice walks. I have a decent sized yard. It’s not fenced in so I do walk the animals on a leash and we have some woods with paths near my house.
“Destinee was very responsive from the start. She shared several pictures of Jack during his meet and greet. He had a great time at her house and came home and took a long nap. I feel like he is in great hands with her and her husband!”
“Kamela was fantastic with my puppy! Her and her family accepted my baby as their own and I never had to doubt her safety or well being. Will definitely be using in the future and 100% recommended ☺️”
“Nichole and Moe were amazing. Extremely kind and understanding. Very patient with my girl Blue. They worked with me and my early and late hours. Wouldn’t have been able to make it through the week without them!”
About: Hey there! I am Jen. I can’t walk past a dog without saying hi. Love being active outdoors, going for walks, and making new animal friends. Pets bring so much joy, and I’m here to make sure they have just as much fun (and comfort!) while you’re gone- as they do when you’re home. I work from home, with a fenced in yard. I often just keep the back door open, unless it's winter... so they can explore and potty as they wish. I think animals do better with company so we really like the social aspect of this app where animals can be together with each other
“I dropped off Oz, our 6 year old, curious, mischievous and playful Husky-Keeshond, at Laura’s house for daycare and as well a surprise overnight boarding and he loved it!! He was good and tired from playing all day with other dogs and walking in the park and to top it all off the photo updates on the dog’s activities throughout the day were awesome!! My wife and I just wish we had found out about her sooner!! We will definitely consider her our first option the next time we need daycare, boarding or or the next time Oz just needs a day of fun!”
“Pete always enjoys staying with Sheila! I know he is well taken care of. I think he has even finally almost learned how to retrieve a ball...due to another dog at Sheila's house being obsessed with this game. Pete also enjoys watching for squirrels in the backyard.”
“Celsei was Absolutely Amazing with Denver!! Denver was excited to see Celsei during his stay. I never worried about him being in her care. I definitely recommend her! She's the best and it shows, I received multiple pictures and videos of Denver during his stay with Celsei. Thanks so much Rover!”
“Our dogs loved their time at Kelli's! She is very friendly and obviously loves dogs. Kelli provided photos and updates during the day and is really communicative. Her fenced-in back yard provides a great opportunity for the dogs to romp around. Our dogs were worn out from playing and having such a good time! I would definitely love to use Kelli again.”
“Another great day of daycare with Miss Lauren! She is so sweet to Brody and Jethro when they need to spend a day with her, and she's a pro at managing their different personalities while making sure every dog gets love and attention. Couldn't have left them with anyone else!!”
About: I have cared for many animals growing up, my mom and I were both adopters of all kinds of strays. But I have been loving and caring for my very own sweet girl for 9 years! We adopted our baby from the humane society at 3 months old and worked through potty training, leash training, and command training. Please allow your pet to be my outlet so I stop asking my husband for another dog 😬 I am a homeschool momma so I am home or outside adventuring most of the day. I have a nice sized yard, however, it is not fenced in so if your fur baby likes to run off from time to time we may not be a good fit. I have 3 small kiddos (and myself) who would love nothing more than to snuggle on your pup! And our Vega girl enjoys running and playing with other doggos so your pup will get plenty of love and exercise! We do have 11 chickens who stay in their coop (we do let them free range from time to time, but they will be kept in their coop while you pup stays with us). However, due to having small children and chicks we will require a meet and greet before your precious pup comes to stay with us.
“Jasmine was great. I was in town for an event and decided to let my puppy play instead of join me. I contacted Jasmine last minute and she was available! Roxie had a great time and was well cared for. I got several pictures and video up which was great for this nervous mom. Thanks so much!!!”
“Let me first say, I was a little skeptical about using Jackson. But once I met him, some of those worries washed away. I still worried, but throughout the day Jackson communicated and sent photos and my worries washed away. Jackson is the ultimate professional and Milo was extremely happy and pooped when we picked him up. Finding out Jackson offers other services, and I think we have found our new EVERYTHING. I'm already reaching out for a booking tomorrow.”
“Pete was excited to stay at your house and he looked very happy to sniff around the yard and meet one of your dogs. It is really important to have a fenced dog for a beagle so that is helpful. Pete always likes dogs and kids. I'm sure he will be back sometime in the future. Thaks fo taking Pete kinda last minute!”
“Andrea was wonderful. She was super accommodating and sent lots of pictures to us throughout the day. I would be happy to book with her again if we come through the Indianapolis area in the future.”
“Only our second time dropping pupper off for doggie day care and we can tell she is already feeling more at ease. Thanks for the care and clear communication from start to finish!”
About: I love pets. I had my Golden Retriever since he was 10 weeks. Now he is 7 and half. Very healthy! I take him to dog park everyday. I am full time home, so I have lots of time to play with your dog. I can walk them, play with them, take them to dog park. I have a fenced yard that your fur baby can play during in the day. My golden retriever is very friendly and happy to play with other dogs. I usually walk them twice a day besides the dog park, one in the morning and one in the evening. There would be two 1- 1 1/2 hour play time in the backyard too.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Samaria
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 477 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Samaria. 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 Samaria 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 IN 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 477 sitters in Samaria, 84% 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.
