Andrew and Jane were great! It was a first time all day sit, and they answered all my questions ahead of time, were very flexible about drop off/pick up time, and accommodated my booking less than a week from the date. They were super nice, sent multiple pics and updates throughout the day, and Lucy came home looking tired (the good kind) and happy. Thank you!

About: I love all dogs and cats!!! I’m also a volunteer foster for Fulton County Animal Center. I have volunteered for over 6 years. Animals just bring so much happiness to your life. I’m a mom of 5 and 1 fur baby. I work part time so this is a great opportunity to make extra money while doing what I already love to do. I will make sure that the fur babes are supervised at all times just like I would with any of our own or foster babies.

About: I've been caring for dogs for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pet while you're away. I'm comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, and following each dog's normal routine and care instructions. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home while they're in my care, while also giving you peace of mind knowing they're being well taken care of. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I'm home throughout the day, which gives me plenty of time to provide pets with attention, playtime, walks, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship. I have a flexible schedule and can easily adjust to each pet's normal routine and needs. Your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone around to make them feel comfortable and cared for while they're away from home. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for someone else's pet. I make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, and given plenty of attention while in my care. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, routines, walks, medications, and any special needs. I also understand that every pet has a different personality, so I give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable in a new environment. I want every owner to have peace of mind knowing their pet is safe, happy, and being treated like part of the family.

I’ve been bringing my dog, Mykonos, to Lynn for daycare, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. Every morning, he gets so excited to go back, which says everything about how comfortable and happy he feels with her. He comes home calm and content, showing no signs of stress or anxiety. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. Lynn clearly cares deeply for the dogs she looks after, and I’m grateful for the warm, safe environment she provides.

About: I have grown up with pets my entire life. Caring for animals has always been a passion. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets and caring for my family and friend's pets such as dogs, cats, fish and guinea pig for the past 30 years. I currently have a 95 pound pitty mix and love him to pieces! I work full time and have my own family but am committed to being an awesome, long time pet sitter for you, the one you continue to request! I look forward to adding your fur babies to my schedule and am signing up because I have the time. I am committed to caring your pets as if they are my own. I will nurture their sense of play, curiosity, social interaction within a safe and caring manner. I am committed to making them feel safe at all times to lower their anxiety of you being gone. I will share videos and photos of your fur babies to bring you joy and comfort while away. Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I make sure my pets are fed, have fresh water, receive regular exercise and attention, and that their living areas are kept clean. I also make time each week for grooming, playtime, and any necessary appointments or errands. I’m very consistent and responsible when it comes to caring for pets, and I enjoy making sure they are happy, healthy, and well cared for. My dog is spoiled, he is allowed on all furniture and beds. He goes on trips with us and has sleep overs with some of my sons friends. I have more than enough love to give my dog and your animals!!

I don’t think I can say enough good about Haley and Pierce. Pierce is the perfect combination of laid back and playful. He patiently tolerated her initial over-excitement and then ran and played “chase” with her at the beautiful park where Haley took them. Haley was friendly and professional, providing frequent updates and photos. I will most definitely be using Haley again!

Kiana was great. We were visiting from out of town and wanted to bring our fur baby. However, the weather was extremely cold and my daughter and I wanted to go to the outlet mall but had no clue what to do with our pup. I reached out to Kiara and god a near immediate response. We were able to enjoy our trip and our pup was happy too. She got a walk and lots of love and attention and had a blast playing with her dog. She was nice and worn out for our long car ride home. Definitely recommend!

Betty was very attentive to our little, old chi (17). He seemed super relaxed and content when I picked him up. Having a fenced yard was a real treat for him. We would definitely use her again. 👍 Betty, thanks for the pics and updates each day that he was in your care. 🙂

Jeremiah is definitely a dog person. My pup couldn't wait to greet him the second time I hired him, going right up to him and wagging her tail. The surroundings of his place are perfect for the walks he takes her on - lots to sniff and explore. He is very conscientious about securing her with a double leash.Thank you, Jeremiah.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life ❤️ I’ve had both cats and dogs my entire life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I currently have two large dogs and two cats of my own, and I truly believe pets are family. I’ll always treat your pup with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I’m a stay-at-home wife, so I’m home throughout the day and have plenty of time to give your pup lots of attention, love, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I also have a fenced-in backyard where the dogs can safely spend time outside, play, get some fresh air, and enjoy the sunshine. I love getting to know each dog and their unique personality and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and safe while they’re with me. I know how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your fur baby, so I’m always happy to send pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your pup is being loved and well cared for while you’re away. ❤️ Being a stay-at-home wife gives me a very open and flexible schedule for pet sitting. I’m available throughout the week and can be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. I’m also able to accommodate each dog’s usual feeding, potty, and sleeping schedule so their routine feels as normal as possible while you’re away. I want every dog staying with me to feel safe and comfortable in my home. I have a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor time and two friendly large dogs of my own. I also have two cats who stay in their own separate room while I’m boarding dogs. I’m happy to crate your pup if that’s part of their normal routine, and I always follow any instructions you leave for me.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Walkerton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Walkerton on Rover is $26.75 per day (as of September 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 .

As of September 2026, there are 114 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Walkerton. 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 Walkerton 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 IN 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 114 sitters in Walkerton, 91% 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.
