My pup Jax and I have been so blessed to have found Jennifer. I could tell from our meet and greet she is a “dog lover”. Love that Jennifer has been sending pics throughout the days as well as updates. I’m confident Jax has found his home away from home!!

This was my first time leaving my pup with anyone other than family and Sesily was great. She kept me updated with photos as well as texts of what Remi, my dog, was up to during his stays.

Today was Rose’s first Daycare day with Sylvie. It went really well. She sent a lot of videos, pictures and updates. Rose is getting use to the new surroundings. Sylvie’s puppies were very friendly to Rose. Looking forward to our next visit.

About: I've spent 10 years around dogs — from raising my own to helping neighbors and friends with theirs. I'm patient, attentive, and know how to read a dog's needs. One of my specialties is potty training — I'm consistent and set puppies (or newly adopted dogs) up for success. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or a calm, steady presence, I treat every dog like family. As a musician, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make dog care my main focus. I'm available throughout the day, every day, so I can offer consistent walks and visits without being rushed or squeezed between other commitments. Your pet gets my full attention, every time. I have a fenced yard and no other pets at home, so your pet gets a calm, safe space with my full attention — no competing for it with other animals. I'm based in Plainfield and I'm comfortable providing care in my own neighborhood as well as yours, whatever's most convenient for you. I always stay alert to hazards, follow any specific care instructions you give me, and never leave a pet unattended in an unfamiliar area. Your pet's safety and comfort always come first.

About: I’m a big animal lover who treats every pet like my own. I’m all about walks, playtime, belly rubs, and plenty of cuddles — whatever makes your pet happiest. I’m comfortable with all personalities and energy levels, and I have hands-on experience caring for a dog with a seizure history and a senior dog with health issues, so I’m calm, attentive, and great at following care instructions. I’m super affectionate, love building trust with pets, and genuinely enjoy making them feel safe and happy. Don’t let the tattoos fool you — I’m a total softie who lives for puppy kisses and kitty cuddles! Please Note: Currently, I am unable to walk dogs on leash due to a spinal injury. I am still able to let them in fenced yard, feed, cuddle, & provide all other care. I work from home as a business owner and set my own schedule, which means pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and extended visits throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, walking preferences, and house rules. I keep a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment and always monitor pets closely during walks and visits. I’m careful about leashes, doors, gates, and surroundings, and I provide updates so you feel confident and at ease while you’re away. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I will always treat your pet as I want my kids (pets) to be treated—with extra love!

About: Hi! I’m Nicole, and I work remotely as a graphic designer while pet-sitting! I’d love to hang out with your baby or take them on walks or just keep them company! The details: I’m currently open for a recurring lunch time walk/drop-in spot! I do have meetings throughout the day and work full-time, so it’s u likely I can accommodate any other weekday times. Weeknights and weekends are open though! I am open to sitting for all types of animals! I love to be outdoors, so walking and playing with your pet will be a treat for both me and them. I’m also cool with a little snuggle bug watching tv on the couch! I’ve walked and spent time with dogs of all shapes and sizes through volunteer work at a shelter in SK. You can count on me to love your pet as my own while I’m with them. I have no problem giving medication or any other special needs your dog might have. - I require meet & greets. - All pets must be up to date on vaccines. - All pets must be in generally good health. - I am not able to offer constant care during daytime hours on weekdays. (Additional costs will be applied for constant care). - Please let me know all about their personality, quirks, and habits! House Sitting notes: Every sitter uses this service a bit differently. For my services, house sitting = staying overnight in your home and caring for the pet between 5pm - 8am and 1 drop in around noon. Any additional needs require additional drop-in costs because I am not able to stay in your home the entire day (I must care for my own pet and another client daily). Don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have any! I'd love to hang out with your pet and work out a schedule! I do work full-time but have some flexibility in my hours. I currently have an opening for lunchtime walks or drop-ins, and I’m always open to doggy daycare. Weeknights and weekends are open! My home has a fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play, our house is small but we live in a quiet neighborhood with lots of good places to walk and sniff!

About: We treat all breeds with love! Friends and family know we will take care of their dogs as our own and have always relied on us to care for them. My husband and I love dogs, so we have opened our home for boarding and daycare of all breeds under 100lbs. I have raised puppies until they were seniors, so I have experience with every age. I have given dogs oral, eye, and ear medications before. Working part time has allowed me the time to be home all day with the dogs. My husband comes home for the night and takes care for them while I go to work. We have a 6ft fenced yard and three friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. All dogs are crated for the night and when we are not home for their safety. We only allow dogs free roam when we are home. We also supervise all play time outside and always watch everyone inside.

About: I’m a caring and dependable pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, crate routines, and keeping pets company. I’m especially patient with puppies and energetic pets, and I pay close attention to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I’m happy to provide regular updates and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently in school, so I have flexibility in my schedule for pet care, especially during the daytime, evenings, and weekends depending on my class schedule. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide consistent, reliable care rather than rushing through a visit. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions, keep doors and gates secure, stay aware of my surroundings during walks, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I’ll maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible and communicate with you if anything seems unusual. I treat every home and pet with the same respect I would want for my own.

We had to make an emergency trip to Romeoville, IL for a funeral service and desperately needed a sitter for our two dogs, a full sized Beagle and a rambunctious Australian Shepherd. We were truly blessed to find Natalie! She was so kind, supportive and sincere, which thankfully relieved some of the weight off our overly stressed shoulders. Our dogs immediately liked Natalie which gave us a more peaceful state of mind, knowing our boys were going to be safe. We were so grateful for the opportunity to give love and comfort to our family member in their time of need. Our boys are our hearts so finding a person like Natalie was nothing less than a true Godsend. She was amazing with our boys. They went for a walk, played in the fenced in yard, helped with the garden, and got to take a restful nap. Natalie made sure they were fed and had plenty of water. She sent pictures and messages while we were away, which was so comforting. I can’t say enough about this precious, amazing young lady. I have already referred her to a family member in the area.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Shorewood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Shorewood on Rover is $42.8 per day (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 881 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Shorewood. 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 Shorewood 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 IL 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 881 sitters in Shorewood, 88% 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.
