Highly recommend Ingrid and we will be using her again!”

“I have left my dog, Oaklin, with Caitlyn several times now. He absolutely adores her. They play, walk, get plenty of pets, cuddle on the couch. I don't trust any pup sitter more than I do Caitlyn. 10/10 recommend.”
“We really appreciated and not being able to take our Sofie so last minute. She was very pleasant and friendly. Her accommodations were clean and orderly. Sofie took to her right away. I know that if I’m in the area, she is the person I will call!”
About: What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m patient, attentive, reliable, and comfortable adapting to each pet’s personality and routine. I have experience caring for young, energetic pets and understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and positive reinforcement. I’m also comfortable with pets that need extra attention or a calmer environment. My priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work from home most days, so pet sitting fits perfectly into my schedule. I’m available throughout the day to provide consistent attention, care, walks, and supervision. I have a large fenced yard. I also have plenty of toys for them. I do have small friendly dogs that love to play. I provide a clean, calm, and secure environment where pets feel comfortable, supervised, and cared for, with fresh water, safe spaces, and plenty of attention.
“We had such a wonderful experience and time with Christina. She was so communicative and updated us with pictures and videos throughout the day. My Winston was so happy being there, he had a huge smile on his face. I knew Winston was in such good hands. Thank you so much Christina!! We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.”
“Karina is polite, trustworthy and very attentive when we have our watch our dog. She sends lots of pictures and videos and keeps me updated throughout my dogs visit!”
About: We have had many dogs throughout our life. Right now we currently have 2 small Havanese dogs - Daisy and Luna. We have two children, 15 and 13, and both dogs get along with all children and other dogs as well. We will take care of your dogs as though they are one of our own! We do take on more than one dog at a time. We have a fully fenced in yard where they love to run around and play. We live in a great neighborhood where we can go on long walks. We have two size crates should your dog require one. We look forward to spending time with your pet/s! I currently work full time as a teacher but am home by 2:30 and am able to come home during lunch breaks to let dogs out and walk them. And my husband works from home - so they always have company! My two dogs love other dogs so they will always have someone to play with.

“Kierra watched my dog for a few hours during the day and it was a good experience. She was kind, easy to communicate with, and made the drop-off and pick-up smooth. I appreciated that she sent a couple of updates and photos, which helped me feel comfortable while I was away. My dog seemed well cared for when I returned. I would book with her again.”

“Tina was so awesome to work with! She watched our super high energy 2 year old lab mix (Kenzie) for daycare at her home. She sent lots of pictures and updates and made sure to ask us lots of information about our dog before we dropped her off. I appreciated how much communication she provided and all of the pictures she sent!”
About: I have been living with a dog (at one time with 3) since 2010. We recently said goodbye to our lab/retriever mix and are not quite yet ready to adopt a dog again but we miss having a dog around. As a pet parent I understand how stressful it can be finding reliable care and finding someone who will love your dog as much you do. It can also be tough when you find out you have to work late and will need someone to come to your rescue to let your baby out and feed them. When I’m not walking dogs, I’m taking care of my human children (who also love dogs) which means I have a somewhat flexible schedule, and I spend a lot of time outdoors. We have always found lots of fun outdoor bonding opportunities everywhere we have lived with our dog. We both love being outside and being active and I would love to share this hobby with your dog too! I am a full time mom to two school aged children. I have reliable blocks of availability for the most part. I am in and out during the day and my husband works from home a lot of the time as qell. We’re very big on walks, dog parks, fetch (our sweet pup was inexhaustible and could play fetch for hours), and my kids practically live in our yard so I’m outdoors a lot when I’m home. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I follow the care instructions given by the pet parent.
“Viviana took very good care of our older, anxious dog, making him feel comfortable and at ease while we were away for the day. She was very flexible to meet our dropoff and pick up needs as well. We will book with Viviana again!”
About: I believe that pets need individualized attention and needs. I ensure that senior pets receive the gentle care and attention they need, whether it's administering medication or simply providing companionship. I'm also attentive to each pet's individual needs and personalities, which helps create a comfortable and loving environment for them. This combination of skills allows me to cater to a wide range of pets and ensure they feel secure and happy while in my care. If you have any specific questions or would like to know more, feel free to ask. I am currently doing this full time so your pet will have my undivided attention. I will be able to take them for walks, play in my enclosed backyard and make sure all theirs needs are taken cared of. I have a fenced in yard. I have an entire home where your pet will be able to roam freely around and find there spot!
“Gloria and Deb were great. From our initial phone call when she asked me important questions about our dog, you can tell that Gloria takes the safety of your dog as her highest priority. Her house is well set up for a nice size group of dogs and it has a nice fenced in back yard. Gloria emailed me videos of our dog to ensure us he was doing well. And she texted questions when a decision about a treat needed to be made rather than just give him something that we were aware of. Her communication was excellent and our dog seemed very happy and tired after 7 hours with Gloria and deb. We will use again and we highly Recommend. Thanks”

Peggy was so communicative and accommodating for my dog Auri. She made sure she was comfortable right away and sent updates the whole time, even though it was only a couple hours. She took Auri on and hike and found space so she could run around. Thank you again for both of us!
Cynthia was amazing! She sent me updates throughout the day, pictures and videos. Ken has such a blast that now he waits by the car door before our walks in hopes to see and play with Cynthia again. It's clear to me that Cynthia truly loves what she does and that is reflected in how well she cared for Ken!
Caitlin was wonderful with my Lucas. I highly recommend her. It was the first time I left Lucas with someone besides family for the day and Caitlin was fantastic! Lucas is an older dog and has special needs that Caitlin was able to provide. She sent photos and updates during his stay and took him for walks which he hadn’t done for some time and since then he has extra pep in his step and we are back to taking short walks. Lucas was in great hands with Caitlin and I will feel comfortable and have peace of mind leaving him in her care at the next opportunity.
Vanessa and her husband were extremely attentive to not just my pup (Swag) but to me as well. I was in a last minute time crunch and w/out hesitation she leaped in and adjusted her day to accommodate us! She sent updates and videos. In addition she let me know just how accessible she was to me to ensure the lines of communication were available to me and open! They are not just dog sitters, but really good genuine people, which the world can use a lot more of🥹!! Choose Vanessa for a peace of mind, excellent communication, prefer your fur baby to be treated like family, ease of availability and overall comfort for you and your pet!! She is not new to this and it shows! Job well done🫶🏾
Ingrid was absolutely amazing! She took fantastic care of our golden retriever on Thanksgiving. We received multiple updates with videos and pictures throughout the day and Ingrid was quick to respond as well. Kennedy enjoyed running around in the yard! Highly recommend Ingrid and we will be using her again!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Valley Stream
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Valley Stream is $54 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $44 and $70 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 10,987 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Valley Stream. 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 Valley Stream 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 10,987 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NY. 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 NY 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.
