“Deacon and Greta had a great first day with Angela! She sent us pictures of then and when I picked them up, they didn't want to leave! What peace of mind we have leaving our dogs with them, one of which is special needs, knowing they were getting so much love! We can't wait for their next stay!”
“Janet is the kindest, most generous pup carer!! She has been extremely flexible and welcoming to my pup Vinny and is 100% reliable!! Her family, including young children, have been equally warm and wonderful!!!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and honestly just love being around them. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, or staying with them while you’re away, I love making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved. Every dog has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know each one and treating them like they’re my own. 🐾🤍 🐾 Monday–Friday: Flexible availability throughout the day since I work remotely and can adjust my schedule for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. 🐾 Weekends: Limited availability due to other work commitments, but feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to accommodate when possible. I know pets are family, so I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I follow their normal routine, give them plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles, and make sure they’re happy in their own environment. I’ll also send updates and pictures because I know I’d want them too! 🐶🐾
“Booked doggy daycare for the day and as always Cassandra was great! My husband and I have peace of mind while we are away because we know our puppy is in good hands. Cassandra sends updates/pictures and stays in communication. Best part is that our puppy loves her and her family!”
About: A couple of months after we married my husband adopted our first dog, Sandy, and I’ve been hooked ever since. That was 26 years ago. Both of my sons are adults now so I have free time to focus my attention on your baby. Your baby will have my undivided attention. My property is fenced and I will accompany your baby outdoors. We can play fetch or simply keep each other company. I will do what it takes to make your baby comfortable and happy.
“We had a wonderful experience! Communication was excellent from start to finish, making the entire process easy and stress-free. It was clear that our dog was well cared for and received lots of attention throughout the day. We picked up a happy, relaxed pup, which gave us great peace of mind. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter!”
“Christy, Louie, and Bandit we’re wonderful hosts. I needed to go out of town for the day and this was my first time using Rover. Traditional dog daycares seem to make Mungo nervous and this was a much better arrangement. Christy was so kind and we were able to do a quick meet and greet in advance. I knew immediately that Mungo would be comfortable with her. It was a huge relief knowing that the dog was happy and well cared for while I was gone. Many thanks!”
“Tia was great! She accepted my request on short notice and made me feel at ease about leaving my boy Pete with her. We drove into town and needed a sitter for a few hours. She was the perfect choice for Pete the Pug. He was safe and secure in her fenced in yard. She also made him feel right at home letting him on her couch as part of the family. He made a new friend, Tang her adorable dog. She sent pictures and even a video to help ease my mind about dropping him off with a stranger away from home. I highly recommend her. And if we go back to Pittsburgh I will definitely book with her again.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I could leave 6 stars, I would! This was my first ever Rover reservation, so it’s a little overwhelming trying to choose a sitter from all the options — knowing they’re all strangers after all. I booked last minute AND I adjusted my reservation. Sara was so accommodating and flexible with all of my needs. I immediately felt at ease when I met her and her pup Grim, and I knew Cody was in good hands. Definitely will use again and recommend. Thanks for treating Cody like one of your own!”
About: Hi there! I work from home my two available days a week, which means your dog gets 24/7 companionship, frequent backyard potty breaks, and mid-day snuggles on the couch. I grew up with dogs, and I have experience with everything from puppies to seniors. I am experienced with medication administration, limited mobility, and managing separation anxiety. I also have experience with reactive and dog-selective dogs and keeping them safe and happy. I live right by Bird Park and in a very walkable neighborhood, and can accommodate 2-3 walks a day - but if your dog is happier cuddling/sleeping inside, that’s okay too! I’d like to match your dogs normal routine as much as possible and make sure they get as much play and rest time as they need. Your dog will be safe and happy with me! I currently work from home two days a week (Monday and Friday) so I will be available 24/7 on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I request that you give me your dogs normal schedule, and I will follow it exactly to make sure that they are comfortable and happy. I am available after 3pm Tuesdays through Thursdays. Your dog will be the only pet in my home, and my top priority! I require a meet and greet before boarding to ensure we are the right fit. I will keep you updated with daily pics of your pup. I have a large crate in case your dog is crate-trained, but as I work from home they will just be hanging with me on the couch or dog bed - wherever they are more comfortable. My home is clean and free from any hazards to your pup, and I will follow your exact household rules regarding feeding and anything else. My previous dog who has now crossed the rainbow bridge was reactive and dog-selective, so I am very experienced on keeping your dog safe while on walks and reading their body language. They will never be off-leash in an un-fenced area, and I will happily avoid any triggers that you make me aware of - just let me know!
“Alisha has been my regular sitter for about 2 months now & I feel very lucky to have found her! My dog, Cooper, is treated like part of the family & is always worn out when he gets home. I feel confident that he is safe & I still get consistent updates on what they’re up to all day. She is one of the best you could find!”
“Adrienne took wonderful care of Finn! She sent plenty of photo updates, and he clearly had a great time with her pups. Would be happy to have her watch Finn again, and I know Finn would love that, too!”
“We had a great experience with Gretchen! We were in town for a wedding and looking for someone to come to our rental house and sit with our dog there. Even though this is not a standard dog-sitting situation, she was willing to accommodate us. Our pup was calm and content when we returned and everything worked out great.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sturgeon
Milo was very happy and relaxed with Arti and Ashwin right in his first day care at their place. Arti was super nice in sending updates and multiple photos and videos of Milo during his stay with them. Within 10 min of leaving Milo at their place she texted me with updates on him and that really calmed me that my boy is well taken care of! She constantly updated me on all his food and pee breaks. They took him out for walks and even gave him a toy ! I highly recommended Arti and Ashwin for their dog boarding and day care ..they understand your dog’s needs and are a very dog loving family. I will be booking with them again for Milo ! Thank you again Arti for taking such good care of Milo.
Unbelievable experience! HIGHLY recommend this family if you want your pup to be loved like at home. We were looking for a last minute sitter for a puppy and Arit was kind enough to take care of our puppy. Coffee and Milo are bffs now. Thank you for the love you showed our little guy. We will be back!
My pup Oriyah had an amazing time with Arti and Ashwin! They made her feel so comfortable and cared for, which means a lot to us. We received frequent updates on Oriyah’s schedule and whereabouts. She absolutely loved the toy they gave her—it was such a thoughtful touch. Thank you for your kindness and attention. We’ll definitely be using your services again. Highly recommended!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Sturgeon
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 667 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Sturgeon. 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 Sturgeon 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 PA 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 667 sitters in Sturgeon, 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.
