About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so I’m truly a dog lover. 🐶❤️I’ve owned and cared for chihuahuas, Frenchies, a husky, and I currently have a sweet poodle. I have experience watching both small and large dogs, which has helped me become a confident and experienced sitter who can handle all kinds of personalities and needs. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I plan my days around feeding times, potty breaks, walks, and play, so dogs get consistent attention and a predictable routine. I make sure they have time to exercise, time to relax, and plenty of affection and mental stimulation, whether that’s sniffy walks, toys, or quiet cuddle time. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while they’re with me. 🐾 I keep things small, safe, and personal. I only watch up to 3 dogs at a time, so your pup isn’t lost in a crowd and gets plenty of one on one attention all day. I have a big fenced yard with grass, so they can run and play, but they’ll always be inside the house in the air conditioning when they’re not out for supervised potty breaks or playtime. I’ve had dogs my whole life and I’m a true dog lover. I also have a super sweet, friendly poodle that I treat like my own kid, and he loves having new doggie friends over. My goal is for your dog to feel like they’re staying in a second home loved, comfortable, and well cared for the whole time you’re away. 🐾💕

I have 2 Cani Corsi, and Sucel watched Shadow, ( my 5 month old Corso puppy). Sucel was COMPLETELY AMAZING!!! She was very professional throughout the whole process. She communicated promptly and extensively, which gives you that “Sssshhhh, rock you to sleep like a baby feeling!” I had few particular requests due to his training and my schedule was not set, but Sucel handled everything with confidence, ease, and remained flexible. I really appreciated the abundant amount of photos and videos of Shadow playing, napping, and enjoying himself! I was only concerned that Shadow might not want to come back home! She proved her experience and confidence to handle big breed dogs and that put my mind at ease. I would happily use Sucel services again! If you are thinking about it, DON’T, just breathe, relax, and let her take care of your dog(s) like they’re her own!

This was the first time we used Rover for Zelda and we are super glad we chose Don to watch her. We told him that Zelda has a habit of taking things off of tables and counters and he “Zelda proofed” his house for us. She came home happy and safe, which is all we could wish for. We will be using Don again. Thanks Don!

About: 🐾 Hi there! I’m so excited to meet your furry family member! ❤️ As a lifelong animal lover, I know that every pet deserves love, patience, and lots of attention. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or just relaxing with a new friend, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. 🐶🐱 ✨ Here’s what you can expect when you book with me: 🐾 Plenty of love, cuddles, and playtime 🚶 Fun, safe walks at your dog’s pace 💧 Fresh water and feeding exactly as instructed 📸 Daily photo and video updates so you never miss a moment 💬 Quick communication and reliable care ❤️ Lots of patience and personalized attention for every pet I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your best friend. I’ll treat your pet like they’re part of my own family, making sure they receive the love, comfort, and attention they deserve. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease from the moment we meet. I can’t wait to meet you and your amazing companion! Let’s make their time with me fun, safe, and full of tail wags! 🐾✨ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m consistent, responsible,🐾 and used to working around animals’ needs. With dog care specifically, I plan my day around their schedule—morning walks, feeding, bathroom breaks, and making sure they start the day active and comfortable. I make time during the day to check on them, give water, and provide attention or short play sessions so they stay calm and don’t get bored. In the evening, I keep a structured routine with feeding, another walk, and a final bathroom break before bedtime. I also use that time for basic care like cleaning up after them and making sure they’re safe and settled for the night. Weekly, I stay on top of things like cleaning food and water bowls, picking up waste consistently, and making sure the dog stays healthy, active, and well cared for. I’m reliable with routines, so I can keep a dog’s schedule stable, which helps them feel secure and well behaved. I care for pets with a strong focus on safety, trust, and respecting the environment they are in. In a client’s home, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely so the dog stays in a familiar routine and feels comfortable. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times to prevent escapes, and I supervise dogs during walks, feeding, and playtime. I keep the environment clean by picking up after the dog immediately, making sure food and water bowls are clean, and preventing anything unsafe from being left within reach. I also pay attention to the dog’s behavior so I can quickly notice if something seems off or if they need extra care or attention. Most importantly, I treat the client’s home with respect—keeping things organized, locking up properly, and making sure everything is left as it was or cleaner. I aim to build trust by being reliable, responsible, and consistent so both the pet and owner feel safe and comfortable with me.🐶

About: I work remotely from my home office and enjoy the flexibility throughout the week to do what I love most, which is spend time with my loved ones. That includes my babies Sophie, Storm & Summer. I'm a true animal lover and have always had multiple pets at the same time. My family and I often help family & friends look after their pets overnight, and drop in visits. We love all animals; our dogs are our family and they are a big part of our lives. We will extend this love to your pets as well with same the love, care and attention. I promise to be loving, reliable, patient and sensitive to your pet’s needs. We have a large fenced in yard where the animals love to play and a pool for those doggies who like to swim. I work remote from home and have flexibility throughout my day. I enjoy spending time in my yard with my dogs and hanging out by the pool. I have a large fenced in yard with plenty of space to run and play with my two large dogs that enjoy playing. I also have a 16.5 yr old yourkie that sleeps all day and is used to different dogs coming around.

About: I bring 25 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dogs, plus years of helping family and friends care for theirs too. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog like they’re my own—with warmth, patience, and gentle care. From snuggles and belly rubs to walks, playtime, and companionship, my goal is to become your pet’s trusted best friend while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re loved, safe, and happy. I currently work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide your dog with the time, attention, and care they need while you’re away or at work. I can easily follow your pet’s regular schedule for feedings, walks, playtime, and potty breaks to help them feel comfortable and cared for. While I may occasionally step out for errands or school drop-offs/pick-ups for my kids, your pet would never be left alone for long periods and would still receive plenty of love, companionship, and attention throughout the day. My goal is to work with your schedule while making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved. Your dog will be welcomed into a warm, loving home environment where they can feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I have a friendly Yorkie poo who loves companionship and can be a built-in buddy for your pup. My home also has a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, play, and potty breaks. With children in the home, your dog will be around plenty of love, attention, and gentle interaction. Unless you prefer otherwise, dogs are welcome to roam freely and make themselves at home. I’m also happy to follow your specific preferences, whether that means crating, setting up a designated space, or sticking to routines that help your pet feel most comfortable. My priority is creating a safe, fun, and caring environment tailored to your dog’s needs.

About: Hi! I’m Tamara, and if your pet stays with me, they’ll be treated like family from the moment they walk through the door. ❤️ I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and getting to care for them honestly doesn’t feel like work to me. Every pet has their own little personality, routines, and quirks, and I love getting to know what makes each one happy. Whether your dog loves long walks, endless games of fetch, or would rather spend the day snuggled up on the couch, I’m happy to meet them where they’re most comfortable. When you’re away, my goal is to make your pet feel as safe, loved, and stress-free as possible. I stick closely to their normal routine, follow every instruction carefully, and make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and exercise based on their individual needs. I also know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else. That’s why I send lots of photo updates and messages throughout their stay so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I want you to feel like you’re right there with them. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety, happiness, and comfort always come first. I pay close attention to their behavior, make sure they have a clean and cozy environment, and treat them with the same love and patience I’d want for my own pets. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member, and I hope to become someone you can count on whenever you need a trusted sitter!! I’m fortunate to have a flexible schedule and spend most of my time at home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. Whether we’re out for a walk, playing, or simply relaxing together, I love making sure every pet feels happy, comfortable, and cared for throughout the day. Since I’m home often, I’m also able to provide companionship and make sure pets aren’t left alone for long periods of time while their owners are away! Safety starts with understanding each pet as an individual. Before caring for a new pet, I take the time to learn their routine, personality, comfort level, and any important details from their owner. Knowing what is normal for each pet helps me provide better care and recognize when something may be different. In my home, I provide a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax, play, and receive plenty of attention throughout the day. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of space for supervised outdoor time, play, and enrichment while still making sure each pet’s safety comes first. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would want for my own. I keep their routine consistent, follow instructions carefully, and make sure they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I believe good pet care is about being attentive, patient, and proactive. I pay attention to changes in behavior, energy levels, eating habits, and overall well-being, and I keep owners updated so they always feel connected and informed!

It really feels like a natural, stress-free environment compared to typical boarding places. My dog came back happy and well cared for. I definitely recommend her if you’re looking for someone with a safe and spacious outdoor setting.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Wellington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Wellington on Rover is $38.85 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 1,805 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Wellington. 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 Wellington 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 FL 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 1,805 sitters in Wellington, 85% 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.
