“Karen was absolutely the best! Communicated well and I was so confident leaving her for baby with her! We will definitely be connecting with Karen again the next time we’re in town”
“As always, my dogs loved their stay with AnnMarie! They returned home happy & sleepy after a full day of fun. Thank you, AnnMarie, for loving my dogs like your own :)”
“This was my first booking with Jessica and Matt but all went smoothly. Their two Frenchies were good playmates for my little Chihuahua. They communicated well and sent me pictures during his stay so I knew he was safe and sound.”
“After my husky's first stay with Jamie, I can say we will definitely use her services again! Bailey loved spending time at her house. The fenced yard was perfect, and Jamie provided lots of love and connectedness. Thank you, Jamie!”
About: I have been training, showing, and caring for dogs for over 30 years. I have extensive experience in dog training and behavior modification. We have a small cozy kennel with doggie daycare located on our personal property Dog watching, training, and showing is my full time job. I have extensive experience with introducing dogs into packs for safe fun play. I work with owners teaching them how to train their dogs and will help with extra training as available. We have 10 individual kennels for dogs at night and a large indoor doggie daycare play area as well as a 6 ft fully fenced outdoor play area.
“Great experience. Laura was waiting for Bryce and greeted him immediately. She sent pictures within an hour and I could tell he was behaving as always. Very comforting. And topper I sent a message when we would be there for pickup and she had him watching at the front door. Nice transition. I’m hopeful to use her frequently while I’m in town.”
“Tristan is great with my dog and always patient when I’m a little late dropping off or picking up. (So being patient with me might be more of a challenge than being patient with my puppy). I highly recommend him for daycare or overnight. While I already had an obedience trainer before bringing my dog for daycare, I can tell that he’d be a really good trainer, too.”
About: As a lifelong dog lover who works from home, your pup will never be left alone, they get real, attentive companionship all day, every day. With 15 years of experience, I’ve cared for dogs of every personality, from couch-cuddling seniors to high-energy adventurers and I’m fully comfortable administering medications and managing any special health needs. Whether you need daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I tailor everything to what makes your dog happiest. I’ll keep you updated with photos, videos and check-ins every step of the way, so you can relax knowing they’re in great hands. MEET AND GREETS: I always welcome meet and greets, your comfort and your dog's comfort matter to me! To keep things running smoothly for both of us, all meet and greets are kept to under 20 minutes. This allows me to stay on schedule while coordinating care for multiple families and my returning clients. It's a quick, low-pressure visit so your pup and I can meet and you can ask any questions before booking. Just reach out and we'll find a time that works! ONE ON ONE CARE/ NO MIXED HOUSEHOLD: I take pride in offering dedicated, one on one care for every dog in my home. I do not host pets from multiple different families at the same time only your animal (or animals!) will have my full, undivided attention throughout their stay. If you have multiple pets, absolutely bring them all! I'm happy to care for your whole crew together. The one-household policy simply means your pets are never mixed with unfamiliar animals from other families, keeping the environment calm, safe, and stress-free. QUESTIONS ABOUT RATES? My pricing reflects the level of care your pet actually receives. Because I only take one family at a time, your dog isn't sharing my attention with a house full of strangers' pets, they get a personal, attentive experience from drop-off to pick-up. You're not paying for a spot in a group setting. You're paying for individualized care, a calm and focused environment, and a sitter who is fully present for your pet. BEYOND DOGS: I've cared for more than just dogs and cats! I have experience with exotic animals including ferrets and other small pets. If you have an animal that's a little outside the ordinary, don't hesitate to ask, chances are I've got you covered. Have questions, special requirements, or just want to chat before booking? Please reach out! I'm always happy to talk through anything to make sure this is the right fit for you and your pet. Because I work from home, your dog gets potty breaks, meals, playtime, and medications on their schedule, not a rushed one. I work around your routine to make handing off your pup as seamless and stress-free as possible. Every dog is welcomed like family from the moment they arrive. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, they’re treated as part of the household, free to roam, claim the couch, and make themselves completely at home.

“Elaine is absolutely fantastic! Teddy has a bunch of energy and when he comes home he’s pooped and has played to his hearts content. Outside of that, at times where emergencies have happened. Elaine more than understood and helped me in a bind. Highly recommend, and will continue to go back!”
“Erin is great! My dog has separation anxiety so I was nervous about leaving him for the full day, but he did wonderful with Erin. She texted me throghout the day to let me know he was doing well. He also had other dogs to play with, which is great to get his energy out and keep him socialized. My dog had a great time and slept great that night! :) I will definintely be booking more days with Erin.”
“Pfeiffer had an amazing time. Daria communicated well and took great care of my boy. Our furbabies mean so much to us so we need to ensure the care they get when we aren't around is top notch. When I picked him up, I could immediately tell how much fun he had and how well he connected with Daria. He didn't want to leave her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 814 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Thomas. 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 Thomas 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 MI 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 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 Meet & Greet .

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , 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.
