“Our energetic sweet dog had a great day with Ro. I felt totally comfortable with her. She seemed like a natural with dogs, had a great backyard, played with our dog during the day. Our dog was loving all over her when we came to pick him up. Ro is great. Can’t recommend her enough.”
“This was my first experience with Rover.com for daycare for my dog, Rudy and it went great. He seemed to do well with Rebecca even with it being a new environment. Rebecca interacted with him very well at the greeting to get his comfort in going with her.”
“Melany took great care of Maggie, I got multiple picture updates and Melany has been very responsive and flexible for pick up and drop off time. Will have Maggie stay with her again next time I’m in the area.”
About: My husband and I both grew up with dogs in the house from the day we were born, so we each have 20+ years of experience! I also was a house/pet sitter through most of high school and college, where I gained experience with senior and diabetic dogs, as well. We’d love nothing more than to love your pups for you whenever they unfortunately can’t travel along! My husband and I both work primarily from home, along with our two children and our own three dogs, so we are readily available for any and all of your pups needs! Apart from the occasional work or summer trip, we are available for boarding, play dates, walks, and the like as needed! We have a fenced in yard with a covered deck perfect for playing fetch or just catching some sun. We have a three year old and a nine month old, as well as three dogs of our own, two corgis and one boxer, who would love to keep your fur babies company while you’re away! We do have the ability to keep dogs in separate spaces if needed though, so there will be no concerns for anyone who isn’t a fan of little ones or just likes to have their own space. We both work primarily from home, so we will be at your pups beck and call for whatever they need whenever they need it! We know they are a member of your family, and we will provide the best home-away-from-home for them while you travel. We do require that all dogs who will visit our home be up-to-date on Rabies, Bordetella, Distemper vaccines and also be spayed/neutered if old enough (>1 yr.) This is to ensure the safety of all pups, both those visiting and our own. A digital or paper copy of your dogs vaccine records must be provided for the first booking, and will be kept on file for future use (and updated as needed). All dogs must also have a collar and ID tag when staying in our home. Everyone’s safety is our top priority! We do allow meet and greets for anyone who is interested so that we can all meet in person, and your pup(s) can sniff around and get comfortable before their stay.
“5 star fabulous. My boys are happy and tired. Smiling and barking as we said goodbye. What great to watch my pups so we could enjoy the zoo and have piece of mind that they were safe and having fun. And they met lots of new friends. Thank you”
“Morgann took great care of our pup and was super understanding with our dogs first ever puppy sitter. We were really happy with how she communicated and her flexibility with our shifting schedule. Our pup came home super happy and in great spirits!”
“Christina was fantastic! She watched my pup while I was in town for work and I can’t express how much I appreciate her! My dog was super happy to see her and her family every day:)”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Sophia
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 319 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Sophia. 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 Sophia 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 NC 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 319 sitters in Sophia, 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.
