Jinghong is a very caring sitter. My dog Bacon fell in love with her starting from meet and greet. Bacon was well taken care of, and I really appreciated the updates and photos. It was obvious he was happy and comfortable during his stay. Thank you for treating him with such care—I would absolutely book with you again and highly recommend you to others!

Denise was excellent! She took great care of my dog by making sure he was slowly introduced to her own dogs, gave him lots of space to play, and gave thorough report cards. She was very personable and was available for my family at the last minute. Thank you, Denise!

About: I am an army veteran that has spent his recent years caring for dogs both of owners and strays and have loved the experience. Pets provide a joy and fulfillment that I can find nowhere else. I believe that pets deserve more than just responsible attention and a loving home, they deserve to be treated with utmost dignity and should also have a learning experience in the process. I have become well versed in training of dogs and would be more than happy to either review or even instill basic training skills. Pets and dogs in particular have become a necessary factor of my own personal happiness. It would be my honor and privilege to be able to provide a special care for a special little friend.

About: I have had dogs since I was 8 years old, from Standard Poodle’s, to Shih tzu’s, to Boxer/Bulldogs! I have tons of experience with pups of all sizes. At the moment, I have to amazing dogsLouie and Lennon. Louie is a Retriever/Setter mix and Lennon and is Coonhound, both rescues. I have had Louie from 8 weeks old and am a pro with puppies and older dogs alike. Before my two loves, I had a Boxer/Bulldog mix Hudson. She was the epitome of a “gentle giant”. I know it sounds cliche, but large of small, I really do love every single one of them! I am currently working Freelance and am able to adjust my schedule as needed to provide the best care for your pups. I also love to run and love to friends come with me! I have a fenced in yard and two super friendly pups at home. If needed I can use a crate for your (or my!) pups if needed. Whatever matches the level of care they receive at home.

About: I have two siblings with a rescue dog each and I have been the go-to auntie to dogsit for them for years. Anytime anyone’s need to go on a trip, Auntie’s got them 💪. I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I can give them the attention, the cuddles, the walks, and the treats they need to be absolutely cared for. I work a remote job from 9-5. It’s not demanding so I have lots of flexibility. I will do walks in the mornings and evenings and can fit in a fun one in the afternoon for a little nature enrichment. Meal times are how the dog parents want. They can have access to my furniture and bed. I see myself as their auntie and they will be treated with the best love and care. My apartment is right next to a train so there will be loud train noises every few hours. I’m hoping this doesn’t spook the babies but please keep that mind.

About: I have extensive experience working in Veterinary Emergency Care, which has given me a strong understanding of animal behavior, safety, and how to recognize subtle changes in a pet’s well-being. I provide personalized boarding in my home and accept only one family at a time, allowing me to give each pet individualized attention in a calm, low-stress environment. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, high-energy dogs, anxious pets, and dogs that require additional monitoring or support. I am also happy to reinforce training and routines that owners are already working on at home. I understand that being away from home can be stressful for some pets, so I do my best to maintain their normal routine and make their stay feel as familiar and comfortable as possible. Whether your dog sleeps in a crate, on a dog bed, on the couch, or in bed with their family, I will follow the routine you have established at home whenever possible. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, secure, and cared for while you’re away. I provide personalized care and keep my schedule flexible so that the pets in my care receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I rarely leave the house for more than an hour, and only occasionally for up to two hours if I need to run an errand. This allows me to provide regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, companionship, and plenty of supervision. Because I only host one family at a time, I am able to give each pet my full attention and maintain the routine they are used to at home. Whether your dog enjoys playing, going for walks, relaxing on the couch, sleeping in a crate, or curling up on the bed, I do my best to make their stay feel comfortable, familiar, and stress-free. Providing a safe, clean, and comfortable environment is extremely important to me. My home is organized with pet safety in mind, and I strive to create a peaceful setting where dogs can relax and feel at home. Communication is also a priority, and owners can expect regular photos, videos, and updates throughout their pet’s stay.

It was our first time leaving our pup with a sitter and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Chulmin & Hoyjin took such wonderful care of Loui. They were attentive, reliable, and communication was super easy and they made us feel totally at ease. We got regular updates, photos, and could tell my pup was happy and well cared for the entire time. It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in loving hands. I couldn’t recommend them enough!

Ashley was absolutely amazing with my puppy Chase! 🐾❤️ This was my second time having Ashley watch him, and I honestly couldn’t be happier to have found someone I trust so much with him. I don’t trust just anyone with Chase, so I was extremely nervous the first time I left him. But Ashley immediately made me feel so at ease and reassured me that he was in good hands. After that first experience, I knew I could trust her, which is why I felt completely comfortable going back to her again. She has such an amazing personality, and you can genuinely tell that she loves animals and truly cares about the dogs she watches. She was incredibly communicative, kept me updated during meal times, sent me lots of pictures, and always responded so quickly whenever I reached out. She was also extremely patient, caring, and careful with Chase, especially because he can sometimes have accidents. She handled everything with such understanding and made me feel completely comfortable knowing he was being well taken care of. It’s hard to find someone you can truly trust with your fur baby, and Ashley is definitely that person for me. She gave me so much peace of mind, and I’m so grateful I found her. I highly recommend Ashley and will absolutely be going back to her again! 🐶💕

Jinghong was AMAZING! Fabulous communicating with us before our puppy’s daycare appointment. She really went out of her way to learn all about her, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure everything would go smoothly. We were visiting from out of town to visit the American Dream Mall - my son has been wanting to check out Nickelodian Universe and DreamWorks Waterpark (just 15 min away). She met us at the car with her husband, and they took Daisy for a walk with Yoghurt, which really made the transition smooth. Daisy played all day, and she sent us so many adorable photos and videos. We were able to truly enjoy our day knowing that our puppy was also having fun. Truly outstanding experience and I can’t recommend more highly!!!

I cannot thank Karla enough for providing an amazing care to our dog, Miley. I had to book her as last min booking while we were traveling and we couldn’t leave our dog for long hours at the hotel. Karla sent us numerous photos throughout the day when she was taking care of Miley from 9am-5pm. She was informative on how our dog was settling in, how she was spending time, or taking treats etc. She made our travel stress free because we knew Miley was getting a gray care. I would highly recommend her to any dog owners 🙌🏻👏🏻❤️

Danny (and Rebecca) showed much patience when I called. He answered my questions, even if I repeated (I'm older and sometimes forget). He reassured me when I asked what his daily dog schedule is When I made inquiry with concern about Meshy's foibles, he was direct, informative. He did not personalize as a question of his ability, but understood questions as a concern about  dog behavior.  When we setup MEET & GREET, he introduced dogs, 1 at a time, giving Meshy and his dogs, a chance to meet without being overwhelmed. He remained approachable, but let Meshy approach him in his own time. I found Danny to be alert and perceptive to dogs, patient with my concerns as 'dog parent'. I would definitely return for care for Meshy.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Wallington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Wallington on Rover is $44.4 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 11,406 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Wallington. 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 Wallington 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 NJ 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 11,406 sitters in Wallington, 87% 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.
