“Jessica and her kids were perfect for Emmett. We loved the update photos, he seemed to be comfortable & well accepted into the family. Emmett & I say ‘Thank You’ for a lovely day!”
“Alicia was so wonderful with our dogs. She welcomed them into her home, as if they were family We felt completely comfortable leaving them with her while we explored the colossal cave. It is comforting knowing we can travel with our dogs and have people like her to care for them while we explore national parks nearby. What a blessing!”
“Joann was very kind and accommodating for our two small dogs. She made an effort to show me and the dogs around her home and yard for our first visit, and made sure we were all comfortable with the stay. Joann has a larger dog that is very friendly. When I expressed concerns about leaving our dogs unsupervised with her dog, Joann immediately offered a suggestion to prevent that from happening. We finished our errands early, and called to see if we could pick up our dogs before the arranged time, and Joann was more than accommodating. When we arrived at her house, we found the dogs to be relaxed and feeling very comfortable. Always a good sign! Thank you, Joann!”
“Gina is very mindful that each dog has its own personality and that's a good thing. Our dogs had gone through a major life change and are still learning their surroundings. This fact in combination with Gina worked out great!!! Upon picking them up from spending the day at Gina's, they were happy, excited and end of day exhausted from meeting new friends. We look forward to continue using Gina's daycare services and near future boarding as well. Keep up the excellent work!!!”
About: I have over ten years of experience with many different types of animals and I know a lot of different techniques to approaching animals that might be scared or more difficult to take care of. I am a college student back for summer break and I don’t have a job currently so I am available 24/7. I can work every day of the week and have access to transportation so I am available to drive to the animals at anytime. I can drive anywhere at any time and take animals to different places if needed. I will make sure they are well fed and watered as well as taken for walks or played with to keep them active and if they need any extra help I am more than willing to take those steps to ensure they get it.
“Very friendly and caring family that have the same breed of dog as ours. My puppy had a great time at daycare and came back home tired, which is a plus. I received photo’s and updates throughout the day as well. Would definitely recommend!”
“Bethany was so patient with our dog who is very nervous around new people, places, and sounds! She made me feel so comfortable leaving our pup with her and it was great to see pictures and hear how well our dog did while we were gone!”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable, dog-loving sitter who treats every pup like family—while also keeping routines, safety, and comfort a top priority. I’ve been caring for dogs for several years and have experience with all ages and energy levels, from playful puppies to laid-back seniors. I understand that every dog is different, so I take time to learn your dog’s routine, preferences, and quirks to help them feel secure and relaxed while you’re away. I currently live with my two well-socialized dogs, who are calm, friendly, and used to having canine guests. Your dog will never be left alone or ignored—I’m attentive, patient, and happy to match their energy whether that means playtime, walks, or quiet companionship. I live in a house with a yard where dogs can safely play or relax. I’m also happy to follow any leash, feeding, or medication instructions exactly as requested. I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times and provide regular updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. 🐾 I only care for dogs (no cats). 📩 Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your pup! Pet care fits into my routine easily-I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I can provide plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor breaks. I can check in on your pup several times a day, or I’d be happy to care for them in my home. I also offer early morning and evening availability to accommodate pet parents with long work hours. I have two sweet Greyhounds to play with & keep your baby company. I love to cuddle on the couch or bed with the dogs. I’ll do whatever I can to make sure your pup is comfortable and safe.
“Christina is amazing! We weren't too sure (overprotective fur parents) so we asked to book a day care to test out how comfortable they would be with her two dogs. They seamed to fit right in. Already booked a future stay. So far so good and we are looking forward to dropping them off in the near future. 😃”
About: Our yellow lab is family oriented and very social. We consider her part of the family. My kids love playing with new dogs as well. I walk my dogs often, care for them, play with them, and have them up to date on all vaccines. Having dogs is a big responsibility, and I’m lucky enough to be able to do that. I’m fortunate enough to have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to accommodate most times and requests. I respond to messages in a timely manner. I have a fenced yard where there is ample space for the dogs. My dog is usually indoor, but also spends some time outside during the day.
“Allison was kind, friendly, and a great sitter for Katniss! She showed care and attention with Katniss and was very flexible with us as our plans changed with our reservation! She showed knowledge of introducing dogs to each other, as her dogs became friends with Katniss right away! We are so appreciative of Allison and Katniss is always looking forward to her next play date with her dogs!”
About: I’m a former ER vet tech with roughly eight years of animal experience. I’ve worked at shelters, hospitals and farms my whole adult life. I love all dogs big and small and have a special place in my heart for kitties ❤️ I will give your babies all the snuggles in the world (if they want them) and even like making homemade treats for them! I know animal CPR and have experience in stressful situations if anything crazy were to happen. Rest assured your babies will be safe and loved with me. My schedule is pretty open but I do like to have some time in advance to plan for new clients if possible, especially for house sitting requests. I would prefer to have babies in my home, but my dog only gets along with small dogs and cats. If that’s the case then your fur babies are going to have a BLAST at my house! Treats, walks, cuddles and TONS of play. I would also love to watch your fur baby at your house! I have ten years of babysitting (human babies) at other peoples houses so I know how to respect and care for your home during my stay.
“Water and John are very warm and friendly. They love dogs and are wonderful, communicative caregivers. They were extremely accommodating when I had a last minute request for daycare for my dog. Thank you to you both for being the kind and caring human beings that you are.”
“This was our first time leaving Fred with anyone outside the family. I was really worried but Tammy made me feel more at ease. Once I received the photo from Tammy showing that Fred was getting along well, I felt 100% better!!”
“Hector was great with Wally and updated me with pictures and took Wally out for activities and made sure that he ate dinner which he is usually too scared to do with sitters! Hector was communicative and friendly and I would definitely have him watch Wally again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Vail
Jessica was wonderful with my older dog, Maggie. I'm very happy with my and Maggie's experience with Jessica, so much so that I have booked two additional overnight stays. Jessica's home is everything I would want for my dog's stay, including 5 acres and a small farm. Jessica is also very responsive and accommodating.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Vail on Rover is $31.08 per day (as of July 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 Vail 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 AZ 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 368 sitters in Vail, 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.
