“Sarah was so friendly, accommodating and communicative! Even before we spent a full day with Sarah, our pup sprinted to her. Talk about a green flag! We really appreciated Sarah rescheduling our meet and greet a few times as well since the holidays are such a busy time.”
“Bubble has spent wonderful time several times with Brittany and her family. Brittany was very friendly and patient. I am grateful for her extended care and attention to Bubble. Without a doubt, I look forward to booking again in the future!”
“Our puppies love Danielle! Getting excited as we pull up to her house and then jump out of the car and run to the door and into her place! They are so happy there. Thank you for the peace of mind, Danielle!”
“Destiny took great care of my pup. She was very quick and easy to communicate with. I appreciated the time she gave to a meet and greet ahead of time, this helped my dog (and me) feel comfortable before booking her for daycare. My dog was safe, happy and well cared for. I get anxious leaving my dog with anyone but Destiny really helped me feel at ease.”
“Wonderful care at Shawna’s Elsie had a good time despite a little separation anxiety Shawna was very attentive which I very much appreciate???”
“BEST DOG WATCHERS EVER!!! If you are like I was… so scared to leave your fur baby with a stranger… I’m here to tell you- THESE GUYS ARE IT!!! Loki was well taken care of, and LOVED playing with his new friends and was instantly comfortable. They have now become my main watchers! Thank you guys again from Loki and I 😊💙”
“Samantha took great care of my pup, Leo! She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day and took him a 30 minute walk! He had fun playing with other dogs and I will definitely use her again!”
“I’m so happy I found Maria and Uvaldo! My dog loves them and gets excited to see them and she is very picky. As a travel nurse I’ve had lots of experience using the Rover app and can always tell when she’s had a fun day or just sat around. These guys take her for legit walks and fun in the park which is so appreciated by me and my dog (not every dog sitter does this). Maria cares about my dog the same way I do and that is a rare find! I work long hours and have an erratic schedule and these guys are super flexible. Highly recommend FIVE STARS! I know my baby is in good hands❤️”

About: I had an internship with a veterinarian clinic where I learned so much about the necessary care for pets. I've even done harder tasks such as take their temperature, listen to their heartbeats, and much more. I dog sit at home for colleagues and family whenever I can because they always come to me for help. I work from home so I'm pretty available all day to keep a pet company. I can come over to the client's house to walk the dogs, feed them, or even stay the night if need be. I am very active, playful, and love to cuddle with pets. I enjoy taking dogs on walks/runs or being a couch potato with them as we watch movies.
“Lauren was so amazing! We had to find someone very quickly to watch our little one and Lauren was so accosting. Our little guy had such a great time and Lauren and her family were very friendly and amazing people. 5 stars all around!”
“We needed a quick dog sitter and Nikki replied right away. I am satisfied and happy with her service and I highly recommend her when you will be in Reno. She went above and beyond. Thanks Nikki!”
“My dog was happy when I picked him up. He was well fed and taken care of. I can tell when my dog has a good time at a sitters home and my dog definitely had a good time. I will rebook again :)”
About: Hi! I’m Justin, your friendly neighborhood dog whisperer. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, ever since I was a teenager. Whether it’s seniors, puppies, nervous dogs, or the little quirky ones with big personalities, animals naturally gravitate toward me. I truly believe dogs can feel energy, and they always seem to feel safe and understood around me. I’m a full-time remote worker with a calm, grounding home environment, and I treat every pup who stays with me like they’re part of my family. My own dogs, Peaches and Cosmo, are used to having friends over and do great with small dogs who have good manners. I understand dog body language deeply and I know how to create a safe, low-stress environment for every pup. What you can expect with me: • Constant supervision & love • A secure home with a fenced yard • Playtime and enrichment • Separate feeding areas if needed • Safe introductions and lots of patience • Photos, videos, and updates throughout the day • A sitter who genuinely loves dogs and has done this all his life I’m experienced with: ✔ small/delicate dogs ✔ anxious dogs ✔ senior dogs ✔ special diets ✔ meds (non-injection) ✔ rescue pups ✔ multi-dog households If you want someone who will give your dog the same love, attention, and protection they get at home, I’m your person. Your dog’s happiness, safety, and comfort always come first, and I promise to treat them like my own. I can’t wait to meet your pup! 🐶💛 Pet care is built into my lifestyle. I work from home full-time, so I’m able to give the dogs consistent attention, supervision, and love throughout the entire day. 🕒 A Typical Day Looks Like This: • Morning: I start the day with potty breaks and a relaxing neighborhood walk to help everyone get their energy out. Dogs get breakfast afterward in separate feeding areas to keep mealtimes peaceful. • Midday: I’m home working, so dogs can nap near me, chew on enrichment toys, or enjoy supervised backyard breaks. I check in with them frequently and give cuddles or playtime based on their needs. • Afternoon: Another walk or potty break, depending on your dog’s routine. I make sure everyone gets movement, attention, and reassurance throughout the day. • Evening: Dinner time (again fed separately), followed by more relaxation, play, or quiet cuddles on the couch. I’m very sensitive to each dog’s preferences — some want to play, some want to chill. 🏠 My Home Is Calm, Safe, and Always Supervised Because I’m home all day, your pup is never left alone for long periods, and I can monitor how well they’re adjusting. I only accept small dogs, which keeps the energy manageable for everyone — including my two dogs, Peaches and Cosmo. When your dog stays with me, they become part of my little family. I’ve been caring for dogs for over 20 years, and I take their comfort, safety, and happiness seriously. Here’s exactly what you can expect when your pup stays in my home: 🏠 A Calm, Safe Home Environment My home is clean, peaceful, and set up specifically for dogs. I work remotely, so I’m home most of the day and able to give your pup lots of attention, structure, and supervision. I only host small dogs, which keeps the energy gentle and reduces stress during introductions. 🐶 Thoughtful, Stress-Free Introductions I introduce your dog to my two small dogs, Peaches and Cosmo, slowly and safely, usually outdoors first. I’m skilled in reading dog body language, so I ensure everyone feels comfortable before letting them interact freely inside.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sparks
Krystalyn was absolutely amazing with my boys—5 stars all the way! They came back so relaxed and happy, which says everything. She was also incredible with last-minute communication and made the whole process stress-free. Both of my dogs can be challenging in their own ways, but they immediately gravitated toward her like they do with me, which gave me so much comfort. As a dog mom, they are my top priority, and I truly felt at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Since we were visiting from out of town, it meant a lot to find someone so trustworthy and caring. I would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her every time we’re in town!
We feel so incredibly lucky to have found Alma to care for our sweet Mabel! At just 19 weeks old, Mabel is at such an impressionable and important stage in her development, and leaving her with someone new could have been stressful but Alma made the entire experience absolutely wonderful. From the very start, she was attentive, thoughtful, and clearly experienced. She carefully followed all of our instructions, which gave us so much peace of mind. What truly set her apart were the frequent photos and detailed updates throughout the day. Seeing Mabel happy, comfortable, and engaged allowed us to completely relax knowing she was in the best hands. One of the highlights was the amazing socialization Mabel received. She had such positive interactions with Alma’s sweet senior dog, Tyben, and her daughter. It was exactly the kind of gentle, enriching environment we were hoping for. It’s clear Alma understands how important safe, positive experiences are for young puppies. We cannot recommend Alma enough. She treated Mabel like her own, and we are beyond grateful for the love and quality care she provided. We will absolutely be booking with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Sparks on Rover is $22.2 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Sparks 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 NV 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 350 sitters in Sparks, 92% 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.
