About: Ever since I was a child I have had a passion for taking care of animals: From fostering dogs as a child, getting my first job in a boarding facility, and 5 years as a veterinary technician. With my depth of experience from the veterinary field I can administer medication, provide care to those with special needs, and ensure a safe and healthy environment while providing love and affection. I work entirely from home and am available at all times of the day. I never would leave any dog unattended except for short periods, in which they would be safely crated. I take the utmost care to provide a safe and healthy environment for all pets including my own. I am meticulous in keeping our home clean, preventing any potential hazards of being in reach of animals, and ensuring there is clean water available at all times. At the same time, I want every guest to feel at home, and believe in animals having access to as much space as possible, feeling comfortable to sleep on the furniture and explore the house while supervised.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of different breeds for family and friends. I also helped my granny on the farm when she use to breed cocker spaniels. Puppies are perfect for cuddles but so are big dogs who think they still fit in your lap ! I enjoy taking my Doberman on runs in the park, he’s very friendly and loves meeting new pup pals ! Depending on the schedule my husband or son may be with me on the visits. My husband is military and often out of town so we enjoy dog walking and sitting together and cannot wait for our lives to settle down where we can add another fur baby to our tribe. I’m currently going to college and working but my hours are 9 to 5 which allow me to be flexible with morning and evening routines. I am currently not offering in home care for pets at this time. If this changes I will update my profile and detail sections. Thank you.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I know every dog/cat has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Because I’m home throughout the day, I have the flexibility to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or at a client’s, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, pet-friendly environment that’s free of hazards and full of love and structure.

“Gina was great with our senior dog while we attended a basketball game at USC. She was very responsive and even met us after the game so we could start our drive home sooner. She was responsive and took great care of our baby. Would definitely use again for dog sitting needs. Thanks Gina!”

“Jud and Nicole are great! Dexter stayed with them for a day and with the very first picture they sent us just a few minutes after we dropped him off, I could see how happy and comfortable he was with them. He also had lots of fun with his new friend Baxter. Now we can rest assured that our baby is in great hands when we go on a trip in a few weeks.”

About: I’ve always loved animals in a way I can’t explain. They are truly a gift and a blessing. Big dogs, small dogs. Female cats, male cats. I don’t descriminate, I love them all the same! They are what make me happiest and being with them; taking care of them; spending time with them is my favorite hobby. Doesn’t matter if they are shy or outgoing; willing to work with them either way! I’m always nice to animals. I believe in giving them the care, Love, and tlc that they truly deserve! Even if that means spoiling them a bit :) I’d be happy to watch your pets; walk them; spend time with them and just be a good helpful hand with them they deserve the best; also have a dog park at my community. I’m currently not doing any other work so my time is open and available ! Book with me and I’ll make sure your pets are happy :) I stay in an apartment : with two cats. Not really looking to do any boarding at this moment in time . Thank you !

“Omgosh! Michelle was our hero the weekend of my nephews wedding! Newly relocated to the Charleston area, we knew no one to watch our pup while we went to Savannah for the wedding. We found Michelle in Savannah, and she was wonderful!! So sweet and loving to our 10year old poodle bichon, and he seemed to be comfortable with her and her place right away. If you're looking for the perfect dog sitter, look no further, Michelle is your gal.”

About: Hi, I’m Sierra! I’ve been around animals my whole life. I have over 10 years of experience in pet care services, and I’m passionate about providing loving and reliable care for your furry friends. I also have a 7 year old dog named Karson who’s super friendly and loves meeting new friends! I work from 8 AM to 4PM on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. On weekdays, I come home during my break to let the dogs out and give them some love. Every day after work, the first thing we do is head outside to play in the yard! I have a pet-friendly house with a privacy fence, so your pet has plenty of space to play and relax safely. I’ll be giving them lots of love and care. I have an extra-large crate available if your dog needs one for any reason.

“I am very impressed with Daniel! He and Bentley got along beautifully and Max proved to be a good doggie friend. Daniel has a very calm demeanor and sweet disposition- Bentley became attached immediately since he is rather calm. Daniel took exceptional care and responded quickly to my silly check-ins during the day. I highly recommend Daniel!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, & love caring for them! I grew up with dogs (golden retriever, beagle, german shepard), gerbils, bunnies, a bearded dragon, fish, and currently have 2 cats + a senior german shepard. I have pet sat for family & friends since I was a teenager + been on Rover for about 3 years, and also have job experience as a vet tech, kennel worker, & volunteer at an animal shelter. I’m open to all breeds and sizes, and even pets outside of dogs and cats if needed. I look forward to meeting you & your fur babies! I am an artist, yoga teacher, and nanny for work! I have availability on week day evenings and most weekends - I also am usually in town for most holidays and available! I’m very attentive and caring with your pets, in the same way I’d wish for someone to care for mine. I love playing with them and taking walks, easing their separation anxiety, and I prioritize their safety, comfort, and fun!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Summit

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Summit is $44 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $44 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 237 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Summit. 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 Summit 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.

As of October 2026, there are 237 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of SC. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.

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 SC 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 .

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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 237 sitters in Summit, 85% 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 , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
