“Sally was incredible and one of the best dog sitters I have ever had. She is flexible, kind, reliable, and my dog fell in love with her. I will definitely book with her again, and I hope soon!”
About: I choose to not be a pet owner but love dogs. I get my pet time by helping friends and family as well as others who need to be gone and can’t take their pet along. I enjoy getting to know a variety of pups and I’m very in tune with their needs. I’m retired so I have alot of time to play with your dog and to go on walks I’m available weekends as well as weekdays. I have no pets of my own so your fur baby will have all my attention. My back patio is completely walled in and has a turf area for in between walks.
“Our Aussiedoodle had a wonderful time with Barbara! He can be a little shy, but he happily ran out to play with the other sweet dogs that were there that day. Although Barbara's house isnt close for us, the drive was definitely worth the peace of mind knowing that Oliver was in safe hands. We'd definitely leave him with Barbara again!”
“Ashley is an excellent, loving sitter. She constantly connects with all of the dogs who stay with her, each in an individual way, greeting, encouraging, praising and correcting. My dog Sunny Girl benefited greatly from the few months of once or twice a week daycare she spent with Ashley and the other dogs, becoming calmer and more confident with the various dogs she met. I would recommend Ashley to anyone looking for safe, caring daycare or boarding services for their dogs.”
“Reagan had an amazing day! Love getting pictures and updates of her bounding smile and adventures throughout the day. Another day of fun and excitement and friends for Reagan at Christie and Daniel’s. We are so thankful. Can’t wait for next time.”
“Both Rio and Jen were wonderful with our dog Rosie. Everything went smoothly. Their welcoming attitude alongside a great house for dogs --with a patio and pee area) made it an easy experience for Rosie and for us.”
About: My husband and I have retired and live in Saddlebrooke. We both watched dogs before when we lived in Columbus and now in Arizona and we LOVE it! Between the two of us we are home alot to spoil our (and your!) dogs, but do note that we do take bike rides etc in the 2-3 hour range several times a week. We watch ONLY ONE family’s dog(s) at one time so that we can give YOUR pet the special attention that he or she deserves. I have found each dog that we've watched to be a special gift in his or her own way and consider it a real blessing to be given the honor of watching your pet. I've been watching dogs for decades for family, neighbors and friends and loving it! I have always had dogs, helped my uncle raising schnauzer's, and done obedience work with several of my dogs - who were amazing! We have one dog, Emmie, a 15 yr old Havanese who while initially wary of new dogs and people becomes friends. She is pretty low key ( and toothless) and so dogs that have very high energy would not be a good fit. She accepts other dogs but doesn't usually care to play with them (but we do!!) We also require all dogs that we watch to be up to date on all immunizations, and are fully house broken and non aggressive. Dogs are welcome on our furniture and on our bed. We have a secure five foot fence in our back yard. My husband and I are retired and so are around home a lot, yet we are active and love to take walks and snuggle and play with the dogs! I have a five foot fenced in back yard. Dogs are welcome anywhere in our house including our bed. Our Havenese sleeps with us and yours is welcome too!
“Our 3 year old greyhound, Rowdy, enjoyed his day at Steve's. For Rowdy it was like getting to spend an entire day at the dog park. He had outdoor sniffing around time, indoor lounging around time (Rowdy's favorite past time) and he even got to ride in Steve's car to the nearby park! Steve is very attentive to each dog's individual needs and quirks, and he has the space for them all to be comfortable (separated, if needed) and he is there, where they can see him, for dogs with separation anxiety, like Rowdy, it's the most important. We recommend you trust your dog to Steve's care.”
About: Trusted In-Home Dog & Cat Care | Lifelong Animal Lover Hi! I’m an independent pet caregiver offering day care, overnight boarding, and sitting services in my peaceful, owner-occupied home. Having shared my life with dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, caring for animals is second nature to me. Currently, I am a proud parent to a friendly 20 lb dog and a sweet 16-year-old senior cat whom I’ve nurtured since she was a kitten. Because I am at home full-time, your pets will never be left unattended or confined for long stretches. Whether it’s managing senior cat care with extra patience, hosting small-dog playdates, or maintaining your pet’s exact home routine, I treat every client’s baby like my own family. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, and secure environment so you can enjoy your time away with complete confidence. As a full-time stay-at-home homeowner, pet care isn't just something I squeeze into my day—it is the central structure of my daily routine. My day naturally revolves around physical exercise, regular outdoor time, and attentive companionship. I walk my dog twice a day for two miles on each walk, ensuring active pets get plenty of exercise, fresh air, and mental stimulation. Throughout the day, I frequently let the pets out into my secure backyard for potty breaks, quick sniffing sessions, or relaxing in the sun. Because I am home full-time, I am able to provide a consistent, low-stress environment with timely meals, predictable routines, and constant supervision. Whether your pet needs an active day with long walks or a quiet, comfortable spot for senior care, my schedule allows me to easily adapt to and mirror their exact routine at home. I care for pets in my home by offering a safe, structured, and loving environment where they are treated like part of the family. Because I own my home and stay home full-time, guest pets receive direct supervision and dedicated attention throughout the entire day. Here is what pet parents can expect when their pets stay with me: • Tailored Routines: I mirror each pet’s existing home schedule—including exact feeding times, medication schedules, potty breaks, and exercise routines—to keep their transition completely stress-free. • Active Exercise & Outdoor Time: Active dogs enjoy two daily 2-mile walks, along with frequent, supervised trips into my secure backyard for play and potty breaks. • Gentle Care for Seniors & Cats: Having cared for my own 16-year-old senior cat since she was a kitten, I am experienced in providing a quiet, gentle, and low-stress space for older animals or pets who prefer a calm atmosphere. • Constant Supervision & Safety: With full-time home availability, pets are never left unattended for long periods. I maintain a clean, pet-proofed home and ensure safe interactions between animals, accommodating my friendly 20 lb dog alongside guest pets seamlessly.
“We couldn't have found a better place for our dog to stay while we were in Tucson. Daisy doesn't usually like strangers or other dogs, but Beth and her pack of little dogs were so sweet and patient with her. I would definitely recommend Beth to anyone.”
“We did a nice little meet and greet, and then they took care of my dog for a day while I was out of town. Their home was clean and calm, and my dog came home happy but not stressed. I will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Kat has taken care of my large dog on multiple occasions, always treating him with love and patience. He is loving but excitable, and Kat always knows how to calm him and provide him a happy space.”
“Melissa is amazing! Our pup took to her instantly and seemed happy and comfortable really quickly. Mellisa is great about sending pictures and a little report card at the end of a stay. She is a kind, organized and it’s obvious how good she is with animals! Highly, highly recommend her!!”
“Abby is the best! Our little 9 week old puppy Qubit was always so happy to spend time with her while we were at work. She was always responsive, flexible, and kept us updated with pictures and videos. We highly recommend her pet sitting!”
About: I have owned at least one dog for 30 years! I consider them members of my family and love spending time walking with them and playing with them and having them be a part of our daily life! I look forward to the opportunity to care for your pet! I am a retired veteran teacher. Just moved to the Tucson area. I’m looking for a way to be active in the community and get to know the area and the people and pets in it! We have a fully fenced yard, and pool that is dog, friendly! We have the ability to crate if that is necessary. Our dog is very friendly and loves playing with other like-minded dogs!
“We are so happy to have found Kay! She is very knowledgeable and caring. When our plans changed last minute she was very accommodating. Our dog Hobbs is an energetic cattle dog and Kay knows how to handle him. Hobbs loves staying with her and playing with her dog Cricket. Kay's husband also plays with Hobbs. We highly recommend Kay, and we have already booked many upcoming dates with her this summer.”
About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember! I grew up caring for three dogs and a cat, so feeding, walking, bathing, and giving them lots of attention has always been part of my life. Spending time with animals genuinely makes me happy, and I love helping pet owners know their furry family members are in good hands. I'm currently majoring in Veterinary Science to become a veterinarian, so every experience with animals helps me learn even more while doing something I truly enjoy. I work full-time, but I make pet care a priority before and after my shifts. My schedule is active, and I love spending my free time outdoors hiking, walking, or staying active at the gym. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, evening drop-in, playtime, or extra attention, I'm happy to fit them into my routine. I'll always make sure they get the care, exercise, and love they deserve while you're away. I absolutely love caring for pets, whether it's in my home or yours. I make sure they feel comfortable and loved, providing them with lots of attention, playtime, and regular walks. My goal is to make them feel as happy and secure as possible while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in good hands.
“Darlene has been amazing! My dog Rosie seems to really love her! Rosie was able to immediately feel at home and Darlene has been so caring and loving toward her. I hate leaving Rosie, but I felt really good about leaving her with Darlene, who is such a caring and dog-understanding person.”
“I am delighted that Shawna and Ethan R took my dog for a day. They welcomed us warmly and were patient with his puppy behavior. He received great attention and supervision while he played outside with their 2 dogs of similar size. I received several photos, and he came home happy and ready to rest. We had a great experience! I knew he was well cared for, and he had a great time!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Whitetail
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 391 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Whitetail. 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 Whitetail 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 AZ 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 391 sitters in Whitetail, 82% 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.
