“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!”
“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”
“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.”
“Tory was great!!! Buster had a great experience. Tory sent a lot of photos of Buster playing with other dogs. Would recommend and planning on using her again in the future!!”
“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.”
“Sara and Milo saved Thor on a last minute sitter request. She communicated perfectly about the other two dogs staying and Thor enjoyed every moment of his stay. Her boyfriend also assisted at pickup. Another great experience.”
About: Caring for dogs has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and other pets, so understanding their personalities and needs comes naturally. I've walked and cared for rescue dogs with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels at the dog shelter I've volunteered in. I've also dog sat for friends and family over the years, and have even helped care for Rover clients' dogs on behalf of friends who were sitters. These experiences have taught me how important it is to provide not just basic care, but patience, consistency, and lots of affection. I treat every dog as if they were my own, whether they love long walks, energetic playtime, or simply relaxing with good company. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind through reliable care and regular updates. I'm employed full-time, but I have a flexible hybrid work schedule and can work from home when needed to provide attentive care for your pup. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I intend to make time for walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. An added bonus is that my wife, who's an even bigger dog lover than I am and has owned dogs throughout her life, is home during the day. That means your pup will have extra companionship, supervision, and lots of affection while staying with us. On weekends, we're both home and can dedicate our full attention to keeping your dog active, happy, and comfortable. The best care comes from keeping pets comfortable by following the routine they're already familiar with. I'll stick to your feeding schedule, walking routine, potty breaks, playtime, bedtime, and any special instructions you provide. If your dog has medications, dietary restrictions, or favorite toys and activities, I'll make sure those needs are met. I enjoy playing with dogs, going on walks, and making sure they get both physical activity and time to relax. I also know how reassuring updates can be, so I'll send regular photos and messages so you can see how your pet is doing while you're away.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and genuinely feel a connection and understanding of them. Looking forward to meeting and building a connection with your faithful companions! I work from home and have availability to look after other pets in the home. We recently had to put down our English mastiff and just looking for some extra activity around the house. I have a fenced in yard and love to go for walks around the block or to the park. Getting some steps in with the furry companions is a great refresher for the day
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life since my parents always had dogs while I was growing up. Caring for pets has always been a natural part of my daily routine. I recently moved to Michigan for a remote job, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention, exercise, playtime, and care they deserve. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. I’m also happy to care for both dogs and cats and will always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work remotely from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for your pet. Because I’m home most of the time, your pet will receive plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and can accommodate most schedules with advance notice. I live in a clean, newly renovated, and well-furnished apartment that provides a safe and comfortable environment for pets. Since I work remotely, I can supervise them throughout the day and make sure they always have fresh water, regular bathroom breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat them with the same care and love as if they were my own. If you’d like, I’m also happy to send photos of my apartment so you can feel confident about where your pet will be staying.

Heidi was excellent with Chester! She was super responsive, friendly, and provided such thoughtful care. It was clear that Chester had a great time at her home and was very well cared for. We really appreciated the updates and felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. We would definitely recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a wonderful sitter!
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!

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Troy on Rover is $38.85 per day (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 1,109 sitters in Troy, 86% 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.
