“2 very caring, professional people! My dog came home well loved and happy after romping in their beautiful, spacious yard. When I returned he was eager to greet them & happy to get back to their care! I will return to them many times!”
“Wonderful fun home for our pup! He has a great time! Highly recommend to others looking for a fun environment for their pup while they are out. We will definitely use them again when we are visiting the area”
“Iris & Tomas helped watch our dog while we attended a pet first aid/CPR class nearby. This was our first time having anyone watch her, so we were a little nervous. They were able to squeeze us in last minute and do a meet and greet. They sent us many photos and played with her and kept her occupied until we could pick her up. We would definitely request them again if needed!”
“Cara was great! Responded quickly to my super last minute request to watch our 5 year old Vizsla. She was very friendly and kept us updated about our baby. We would recommend Cara and would book with her again. Thanks so much.”
“Irv is a fantastic sitter! He had no issues with taking care of our two dogs, one of whom is a senior dog with some anxiety issues. She did so well with him that we’re definitely coming back! Our younger pup also had a great time and got lots of playtime and cuddles. Irv gave plenty of walks and sent us photos and videos throughout the day to update us. We had special food instructions and that wasn’t a problem. Thank you so much!”
About: We're a local couple with no kids or pets of our own, but we love being active in the animal community! We volunteer weekly at the Animal Welfare Society of Southeastern Michigan, and so we've got a ton of experience working with all types of dogs. One of us works from home during the day, so your pet will always have a buddy to hang out with! We're available to give daily walks to any of the dogs that stay at our house. We live on a quiet residential street with a fenced in yard. There are no pets or kids in our household, so your pet will be our sole focus.
“Jennifer was available to watch Oliver last minute for me. She was quick to communicate and very accommodating. Oliver had a great time and Jennifer was sure to send updates throughout the day! Looking forward to utilizing her again in the future!”
About: I have over 30 years of combined experience caring for pets. Over the years, I’ve lovingly owned three toy poodles, two cats, and a doxie Terrier mix. My little one also enjoys spending time with furry friends and learning how to be gentle and caring with animals. While I plan to welcome another dog into our family in the future, for now I’m excited to help care for and love on other families’ pets as if they were my own. I have a very flexible schedule and the ability to provide plenty of attention, care, and companionship for your pet. I’m available on weekends and two flexible remote-work weekdays. This gives me the ability to accommodate walks, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and consistent supervision throughout the day. I have a front and backyard, including a partially fenced backyard area, with plenty of open green space nearby for safe walks and outdoor time. My neighborhood is extremely pet-friendly and surrounded by grassy areas, and a nearby park perfect for walks, fresh air, and new sights and smells to keep your pup happy and engaged. There are always friendly neighbors and fellow dog walkers out and about, making the environment feel welcoming and social for pets. Your dog will receive lots of love, attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important routines, patience, and comfort are when caring for someone else’s furry family member, and I strive to create a calm, safe, and cozy environment where pets can feel right at home. Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles on the couch, relaxing walks, or simply having company nearby, I’m happy to accommodate their personality and needs.
“After some horror stories elsewhere, we’re overly cautious about who we leave Oslo with. Annoyingly cautious, honestly. Sara was so kind and accommodating, answering every question & fulfilling every request. She made us so comfortable with the choice to leave our pup in her care and sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Oslo having fun with his new friends. He came back a very happy & tired boy; we’ll definitely rebook.”
“Magnolia was wiped out in the back seat before we got 10 minutes down the road! Exactly what she needs while mom and dad are at work. Brianna also sent pics and videos throughout the day, which was nice.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats as pets, and enjoy giving them them lots of TLC. I am very flexible, but specialize in smaller dogs. My wheelhouse is senior care, but I very much enjoy caring for younger dogs. I am retired and don't have children in my home. I have a very flexible schedule on weekdays and weekends. I have the time and resources to care for pets in my home and/or my client's home. I don't have a fenced yard but have safe sidewalks in the neighborhood. I am very safety conscience and respectful of neighbors, both at my home and my client's home.
About: Enjoy your vacation, time off, or special event knowing your pets will be with a caring and loving pet sitter who specializes in caring for senior dogs and cata. I offer my home as a retreat for your pets to relax, rewind and rejuvunate. Your pets will be pampered with a relaxing quiet environment, treats,belly rubs,cuddles and headpats. My schedule is flexible and open for maximum playtime and high quality attention for your furbabies.

About: I have both personal and professional experience taking care of animals. My experience has been primary with dogs and cats, however, I have looked out for turtles, fish and birds as well. I have a passion for learning and understanding animals. My experience also comes from volunteering with the Humane Society and a local shelter helping caring and socializing cats and dogs. I understand the stress that comes with getting good care for your beloved pet, therefore I take great pride in caring for them as if they are my own. Other hobbies include reading and watching reality TV with my pup. I currently work from home 4 out of the 5 days of the week. I can let your pup out as many times as they need. I don’t have a fenced in yard, so all potty breaks will be done on leash. I have the space to crate if needed, but will need to provide your own.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Troy
Our pup, Frankie, spend the whole afternoon at Heidi’s. Frankie is typically a barker with new people but Frankie was immediately at home. No pulling to go home when we drop him off. Their dog Eevee was friendly too and got along very well with Frankie. Frankie is an older dog and very picky with dogs that he likes. Frankie is a tired and happy dog. We would definitely use Heidi again.
Irv is a fantastic sitter! He had no issues with taking care of our two dogs, one of whom is a senior dog with some anxiety issues. She did so well with him that we’re definitely coming back! Our younger pup also had a great time and got lots of playtime and cuddles. Irv gave plenty of walks and sent us photos and videos throughout the day to update us. We had special food instructions and that wasn’t a problem. Thank you so much!
June watched my golden retriever, Toby? and was very accommodating toward my needs. She treated his hot spots, made sure he got his daily walks, and made him feel at home. I would highly recommend June as she takes great care of dogs of all types and treats them as if they’re her own. Thank you, June!
Annie has such a beautiful soul. Very kind and always went above and beyond. I Love how she asked questions in the beginning about Braxton to make sure he was well taken care of. Annie treated Braxton like he was apart of her own family. Annie always gave updates and made me smile telling me funny things Braxton was doing throughout the day. A wonderful person and a Loving family!
I’m beyond happy with the care my dog received! She treated him as if he were her own—very loving, patient, and attentive. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which made me feel at ease while I was away. My pup came back happy and relaxed, and I could tell he was really well taken care of. I truly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Troy
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Troy on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

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.
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 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 1,121 sitters in Troy, 84% 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.
