“Purvi is amazing!!! From the first moment of meeting her, I could see right away that she loves dogs and dogs love her. I 10/10 recommend Purvi and will definitely be rebooking her for the future!”
“Brooke did a great job. After we dropped our dog off with her, he started to bark. This is very unusual so she gave us a call to let us know. She handled the situation very well while still taking care of an infant and the day went on with no more issues. Would highly recommend Brooke and would use her again.”
“I can’t recommend Suneetha enough. She was so accommodating with a last minute request over Christmas! We were in such a bind. On top of that she kept in close communication and sent so many pictures and videos giving me updates. The communication and flexibility and kindness was so amazing! 12/10”

“Emma was absolutely wonderful with my dog! Lilah was so excited to see Emma the second day of daycare. She communicated with me consistently, sent me pictures and updates, was accommodating and flexible! She made it so easy and made me feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her. I would definitely use her again if I’m in the area and highly recommend her to anyone looking!”
“Kristen was terrific! We booked at the last minute and were coming from out of town for an event. She kept us updated and treated Kodi like one of her own. Kodi had a fabulous time playing with her dogs and came home happy and tired out from all the play. We highly recommend Kristen and would book with her again.”
“Claire was amazing with our puppy Ozzy! He was so excited to see Claire every morning and she took such good care of him. We will definitely be using Claire again any time we need a sitter in the future!”
“Absolutely fantastic service! Teresa took great care of our pup, keeping us updated with photos and messages throughout. She made sure our dog felt loved and comfortable. Highly recommend!”
“Am very happy with Melvin's first stay at Hidden Gem. He is extremely bonded to me and I worried he would not do well. He had a blast! My concerns faded when Jason sent the first photos of Melvin with the other dogs in his care. It was clear he was enjoying himself and was comfortable. Wi do it again!”
About: Hi! My name is Tierney. I am a recent Purdue University graduate where I earned my bachelor in Cybersecurity as well as minoring in Forensics. I am open to taking care of any aged dog or cat. I have had animals around me my entire life and love every breed. Currently I have two dogs and a cat who I am the primary caretaker during the weekends. I am excited to meet your pets (family) and aim to love them as much as you do! I’m currently just doing school and I work mainly from home so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets. My schedule is very flexible and I’m more than willing to help fit yours! I have stayed at multiple peoples houses and taken care of a large variety of dogs: different sizes, age and breed. I have no issue with any breed, age or size! Taking care of pets is a normal day to day aspect. When meeting new dogs I like to get to know all the small details to make sure they are happy and safe! When at my clients home I want to ensure that the dogs schedule is kept up as best as I can so their pets feel as comfortable as possible
About: My goal is always to make pets feel loved and owners feel at ease, knowing their animals are cared for like my own. I understand the structure and attention that animals need, as well as the reliability and communication that owners need to leave their pets with someone else. I've worked with dogs that are active and needy, as well as shy and nervous. Nothing makes me happier than gaining an animal's trust by offering calm, dependable care they need to feel safe. I'm especially experienced with high-energy dogs, large breeds, seniors, and multi-pet households with multiple requirements/schedules. I'm self-employed and work virtually, so I’m flexible. Still, I treat pet sitting as a full-time job, as I’m extremely attentive to pets when they're in my care. In my home or yours, their needs are my first priority. I'll always keep your pets on the same routine they’re used to, giving them consistency and belly rubs while you're away. Pets are always supervised closely, whether we're on a walk, inside, or playing in the yard. Boarding in my home includes potty breaks, sniffing, and playing in a half-acre fenced yard (~4 feet high) as needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and beds to get comfy. They will receive my full attention, whether that's playing, cuddling, etc. My friendly dogs can keep yours company, but I also have a separate room if they prefer to be alone or want breaks. My two cats are kept separately from dogs and visitors. In your home, I'll follow your instructions and routine. I can drop in for playtime, meals, walks, or overnight care. When house sitting, I am with your pets overnight and most of the day. I'll always keep things tidy and respect your privacy and belongings.
About: Spending time with animals makes me happy. I am reliable and work well with all different types of dogs. I just moved to the New Hope area.l and have an open schedule. I have open availability, including week days, weekends, day hours, and night hours. My schedule just depends on personal events/commitments. I am good at fitting around your schedule if needed I live in a neighborhood in New Hope that is very dog friendly. The area is safe and has lots of dog walkers and grass around. Lots of places to explore. I live in a 2 floor townhouse (plus a loft). I am also comfortable coming to your home if needed
“We had a nice experience with Mariia. She made sure our puppy, Benny was comfortable and spent quality time with him for the evening when we left him with her and her family. Our puppy was offered pee/poop breaks regularly, meal time was followed and he got plenty of play time. We were very happy with her service!”
About: As a lifelong pet parent, I know firsthand how tough it is to leave your fur baby behind when you travel. My goal is to give you total peace of mind knowing your pup is treated like family while you're away! I grew up loving dogs of all sizes—from my gentle senior Shih Tzu who recently passed, to my current goofy German Shepherd who is obsessed with fetch. I also volunteer at our local shelter and have fostered kittens, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities and care needs. We have a large, fully fenced backyard with tons of room to run and play. My family and I love welcoming small-to-medium dogs into our home for cozy snuggles, playtime, and endless care. Your pup will feel right at home here! I have 1 fur baby. I work from home and am home mostly during the day. Occasionally run errands in evening. This helps me enjoy my fur baby the most! Timely serve food and meds as needed. Walk or provide active play or opportunity to run around. Safe and comfortable place to sleep. Lots of pets, and hugs. My guest fur babies are loved just like mine.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Stockton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,180 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Stockton. 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 Stockton 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 NJ 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 2,180 sitters in Stockton, 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.
