About: Im a reliable, responsible and hardworking person who have had dogs, cats and exotic pets since I was six years old. I accept special pets. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I’ll have plenty of time to play and take care of your baby. I’m available 24/7 any day, any time. Our home is cozy and your fur baby is allowed to chill on the furniture and to sleep on our bed. Our yard is fenced and we have a friendly pug dog to keep your fur baby company.
“Great job. Attentive, friendly and flexible and kept us updated throughout with pics for a stress free morning and afternoon. Looks like the dogs also really enjoyed the outing. Highly recommended.”
“Katherine consistently kept me informed on the status of my Pets and provided pictures and videos so I could see how they were doing. She provided boarding, walks, feedings and administered my Senior dog's medication each day. I would definitely recommend her for boarding or daycare.”
“Lily loves going to Amanda’s house. She goes weekly for daycare and when we go on vacation for longer stays. We trust Amanda like she’s Lily’s second mom :). Lily gets a lot of love and attention and we’re so grateful to her and her husband Max (Lily’s best friend).”
“great experience as always with louis! he’s taken care of my 3 year old dog daisy a few times but this was the first time my senior pup toby tagged along. he provided frequent updates and pictures and put our minds at ease. would 100% recommend!!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Marcy’s Dog Daycare! From the moment I dropped my dog off for his first visit, I knew he was in great hands. Marcy is incredibly kind, professional, and has such a deep love for animals—it’s clear she’s not just doing this as a business, but because she genuinely cares about the dogs in her care. Not only did Koda have a blast playing with other dogs, but he came home exhausted (in the best way possible!) and with a huge smile on his face. I could tell he had been well taken care of and treated like part of the family. I would highly recommend Marcy’s Dog Daycare to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and reliable place to leave their pet. It’s such a relief to know that my dog is not only cared for but actually enjoys his time there. I will definitely be bringing Koda back!”
“Darien’s home is so much more than a dog groomer / boarding. She is a true caretaker. She handles my energetic pup with care, training and patience. She is always accommodating of my hectic schedule and is even cleaner than me - I did not think that was humanly possible! I love the constant updates of her running around and having fun/burning energy so when she comes home she is wiped out! I am so glad I found Darien and her doggy daycare ❤️”
“Our little golden Havanese had a wonderful time with Irem and her husband! She spent the day with them on Friday, and was eager to go back the next day. She made a new friend, a beautiful golden retriever, who she enjoyed spending the day with. Irem gave her plenty of snuggle time, and she seemed perfectly content both days when we picked her up. This was our first Rover experience, and we were grateful it went so well! Thank you, Irem!”
“We left our two dogs Lewis and Hank with Heather and her family for a day for the first time, and it was a positive experience in every aspect. Hank is deaf and requires visual cues, instead of voice commands. Heather was very attentive to all of my instructions and explanations, showing nothing but positive attitude and readiness to accommodate. She sent a couple updates and several pictures throughout the day, which reinforced my initial impression that she would take good care of our pups. They looked comfortable and happy, even if they were missing home. We're looking forward to leaving Lewis and Hank with Heather again and trying for overnight and multi-day stays.”
“Honestly I am super satisfied and very happy with the care my pups received from Rocio. She kept me updated throughout the day with my pups, played with them, walked them, fed them, and loved them as if they were her own. The pups definitely enjoyed the care Rocio gave them and they even smelled good when I got them! Rocio was very understanding and flexible with what I needed in terms of schedule. I also love the fact that she has other dogs for my dogs to be exposed and got along so well with my pups. Would definitely recommend her and would use her again!”
“Digdem is amazing!! After another Rover sitter cancelled on us at the last minute, she agreed to take our 9 year old, anxious, Weimaraner last minute on Thanksgiving Day! She was so accommodating and sent frequent updates throughout the day. We are so grateful to have found her and can’t wait to use her again. Very highly recommend!!”
“Doug was great with Molly! She had such a fun time and was totally tired out from her day. He was very friendly and provided updates throughout. He was very flexible with timing as well. We would definitely use him again in the future.”

Erika was really great. She fed and walked Rocky and sent me pictures. But she went above and beyond when Rocky was feeling a little sad and didn't want to eat. She gave him some treats and got him in a good mood so he ate his food. I will certainly use Erika again and i highly recommend her.
Nataliya came to our rescue for a last minute Christmas doggy day care job. She and her family were lovely and made us feel secure that Scruffy was in good hands. Their own dog Archie became fast friends with Scruffy as noted by the photo was the two dogs lying down together on the sofa. We hope to use Nataliya again soon!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Wayne
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Wayne is $44 per day as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $37 and $50 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 November 2026, there are 10,988 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Wayne. 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 Wayne 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 November 2026, there are 10,988 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of NJ. 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 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 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.
