“Jamie was very flexible with me and Ziggy! She took great care of my sweet baby, and put up with her chaos :) It was the first time leaving my fur baby alone and she gave me reassurance and comfort that she was in good hands.”
“Ozzie received the best care this week, and I’m incredibly grateful. He wasn’t feeling well, but thanks to her patience, attention, and genuine love for animals, he’s now back to his happy self. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I truly appreciate everything and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommend!”
“We had a great experience! Melissa watched our dog for a few hours, and everything went smoothly. Communication was easy, she was friendly and reliable, and our dog was well cared for.”
About: Hi, I’m Sheila! I’ve been caring for animals since I was a child with experience ranging from dogs and cats to salamanders, turtles, and even a bit with birds. I've always had a critter near and dear throughout my life as a result! I’ve cared for a variety of dog breeds, including Great Pyrenees, German Shepherds, Jack Russell Terriers, Shi-Poos, Pitbulls, Aussies, Labs, and Retrievers—you name it! I’m experienced with puppies, having raised plenty, and I also have a soft spot for senior pets, including those needing medication and special care for conditions like seizures. I’m embracing a new opportunity and using this time to support my community in a meaningful way. Because of this, I have open availability almost every day of the week! I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and cared for when their owners are away. I take the time to understand each animal’s needs, build a connection, and create a space where they feel relaxed and loved—just like I would with my own pets.
“When we pulled up to Jordon’s house for day care, Sylbie drug me up to the door. Pulled me right up there. She was excited for the day ahead. Thank you to Jordon and her family for the excellent care for our pet!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over five years and genuinely love spending time with animals of all ages and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, administer medications when needed, and provide lots of love and attention while they’re away. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with unique routines. My background in healthcare has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail, so you can trust that your pet will be safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I believe every pet deserves kindness, consistency, and plenty of affection. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide dependable care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays with advance notice. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and affection while keeping their routine as close to normal as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions exactly as provided. I’ll keep your home clean and secure, provide regular updates with photos, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re part of my own family.
“We are so grateful, that we found Mikayla to take care of our dogs. We can tell when dogs enjoying being away from us and home. I believe they had fun during the stay, and they were very well take care. Mary B.”
“Paige was great with communication. She kept up with frequent updates and pictures while caring for our dog, any and all questions we had were answered in a timely manner. I would trust her in the future to dog sit for us anytime.”
About: Hi! I’m Chelsey — an interior designer by day with a lifelong soft spot for animals. If I hadn’t found my calling in design, I truly believe I would have pursued veterinary medicine. Animals have always been part of my world. I grew up around both cats and dogs and have over 15 years of experience pet-sitting for friends, family, and clients. My home is a very calm, grounded space, so I’m best suited for low to moderate-energy pets who enjoy a slower pace, gentle walks, and lots of presence. My puppy Nova plays well with other dogs and I'd love to have friends over for her during the day as I work from home with a close eye! Spending time with animals feels genuinely nourishing to me, and caring for yours would be something I do with a lot of intention and love. Because my home has carpet and an Airbnb guest suite above me, I’m best matched with pets who are past the puppy stage to teach mine good manners lol, are house-trained, and not prone to frequent barking — especially in response to normal household sounds like people walking. Creating a peaceful environment is important to me and helps pets feel relaxed and secure while they’re here. I enjoy walking in all seasons, maintaining consistent routines, and creating a space where animals feel safe, calm, and cared for. While you’re away, you can rest easy knowing your pet will be treated as if they’re my own. Caring for your animal would truly be my pleasure 🤍 — Chelsey Aside from Mondays being 9-hour days at work, I am home the majority of the week which is perfect for walks, attentiveness and allowing potty breaks in my fenced backyard. For boarding and daycare, I provide a calm, consistent routine so pets feel safe and settled. I follow your pet’s normal feeding schedule while offering plenty of companionship, gentle movement, and rest. My home is best suited for low to moderate-energy pets, and I adjust activities based on their needs to keep them comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for. :)
“What a phenomenal first experience with Rover & Christina! She was kind, welcoming, very understanding and genuine! She has a beautiful fenced in yard and my boy had a blast. She sent pictures and updates. Hopefully she and her daughter will be available the next time we're in town. Excellent job!!”
“Krysten watched our little dog Shadow while we had workers at our house. She did a great job, she let me know how he was doing several times during the day, and sent photos throughout the day. Although Shadow has been boarded a few times while we were out of town, this is the first time he has been in a day care situation, so I wasn't sure how he would do. Krysten understood the situation and she was very reassuring about his interaction with other dogs. Shadow loved being at her house, and I hope to call on Krysten again to watch Shadow again soon.”
“Anna and her family are great! We used her daycare services while we had some work being done at our house and she was super flexible when we needed to adjust days last minute. Anna takes such good care of our pup, I highly recommend her!”

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 Tea 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 SD 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 86 sitters in Tea, 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.
