“Shannon takes great care of Lilo during my long work days. Lilo even warmed up to her right away and now can barely wait to get into the door to see her 🤣 I am so thankful for all her time and how responsive and kind she is!”
“My first time using Rover to find a sitter AND I HIT THE SITTER JACKPOT! Haylie is super accommodating, delightfully kind, and so easy to talk to! Canela loved her. BOOK HAYLIE, you won’t regret it.”
About: I have had my own pets since I was a young child. I have taken care of many of my friends, family, neighbors, and church members pets over the years. I love dogs and kitties and believe they deserve to be well taken care of. They depend on us to be good to them and are at our mercy. If they are mistreated they can't say anything. This makes it that much more important to be good to our pets. I am not currently working so I have a lot of free time. I have 6 grown children who are on thier own. Two in college, the rest with their own families. I have one friendly lab mix who loves playmates. A fenced in yard, doggie door, and all hardwood floors so accidents are not tragic! I am within walking distance of our city bike/walking trail for long doggie walks.
“Daniela has been watching my 8/9 week old puppy for a week and a half. She had done a great job with my young pup and I feel he is in safe and capable hands. She is very communicative and provides the cutest picture updates. I look forward to my Bowie’s continued time with her.”
About: Looking for more than just a typical dog sitter? I’m Roosevelt, and for the past 8+ years, I’ve dedicated myself to understanding canine behavior from the ground up. I specialize in working with high-drive and anxious dogs, using proven body language communication to build calm composure and trust. Whether you need structured walks, behavior maintenance, or overnight care, your dog receives professional oversight in a safe, controlled environment. You’ll stay connected with daily updates and photos every day they’re with me. Reach out today to lock in your Meet & Greet! As a professional dog trainer, pet care isn't a side hustle it is my full-time daily routine. My entire schedule is strictly structured around high performance exercise, advanced handling, and pack management. Whether training or boarding, dogs are fully integrated into my disciplined daily lifestyle from morning until night. When your dog steps into my care, they are entering a structured environment built for engagement, confidence, and high-energy fun! Rain, snow, or heat—weather is never an issue. I utilize controlled indoor exercise equipment, including a dedicated dog treadmill, to maintain physical conditioning year round. Safety and trust are my highest priorities. To build real-world focus and reliable obedience, I introduce structured outings to local, dog-friendly spots and high-distraction environments to keep their mental skills sharp as a tack. Whether working on precision focus, brain games, or physical fitness, your dog gets an ideal mix of clear discipline, high-reward fun, and deep relaxation. I respect your home, enforce your precise house rules, and deliver daily updates so you always have complete peace of mind!
“As a new user, I found that Sarah was so helpful in explaining how the app worked and what to expect. My puppy was very relaxed with Sarah and waiting by the door for me when I came to pick him up. I will definitely use the service with Sarah again.”
About: I’ve had animals all my life from seniors to littler of puppies. I’ve been to classes to teach and have taken care of multiple pets through hospice. I’ve raised a hand full of litters and pride myself on a loving and fun home for my animals! I can fit almost any Animal within my schedule and around my other small pup! We go on frequent walks and have play time throughout the day. I have a large fenced yard where pets can safely play, exercise, and enjoy some outdoor time. I provide fresh water, supervision, and a safe, comfortable environment. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and care instructions.
“Isa was great for daycare for our puppy!! We were visiting St. Louis and she took great care of our puppy while we were exploring for the day. She was very responsive and sent updates throughout the day which we loved. We would absolutely recommend her and use her again when we are back in St. Louis!”

About: I run a 5k every day and can handle large or small dogs. For boarding I have 2 acres of fenced in grass nearby where I run by husky at daily. My experience : I've had dogs in my home since I was 7 and was tasked with their walks and training. I now have a 2yo siberian Husky, Shryko, who I have off-leash trained for hikes and river adventures. So I'm very active, and my dogs have a lot of enriched exploring and exercise. All this with only treats, praise and regular patient consistency. I am a circus artist and entertainer by nights and weekends when the work is available. I spend most week days free at home honing my skill set and arranging bookings. Therefore plenty of time to head out for walks, or break and enrich a dog's day with playtime. I have a fenced in yard and large living room. 1 dog, 8 month 40lb siberian husky girl who loves company and playtime. Also have a large crate if separation is needed.
“Nicole and Tim are the best!!! They have really kind, positive, calm energy and my black lab immediately loved them. They were super responsive and easy to coordinate with, and their setup is perfect. Their yard is great with a nice high fence, and as someone whose dog gets into everything I really appreciated how neat and clean their apt was. Most importantly though, Darcy had a great time and seemed very happy and relaxed. 10/10, highly recommend. We will definitely use again!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Tami. I knew I’d be gone for most of the day and she took excellent care of my high energy border collie/lab, Bella. She sent pics of her playing with another dog which was awesome. I will definitely call her again for all my fur babysitting needs.”
“Cliff was an absolute ANGEL! So prompt on his responses, and helped us out last minute. He was above and beyond communicative and overall so lovely. Highly recommend!! 💕”

This is the third time I’ve had my pup Quinn at Christina’s for daycare in anticipation of leaving her for a week of boarding. She was scared the first day but Christina worked with her. The second day she was a lot better and went inside with no hesitation and played with the other pups there. We just finished the third day and she did great! Christina and her husband are amazing with the dogs and I’m feeling very comfortable about leaving her with them. I highly recommend them as caregivers!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Troy is $33 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $39 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 524 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Troy. 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 Troy 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 524 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of IL. 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 IL 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 .
