As always, Indy gets so much safe exercise and socialization at Tom & Nikki’s. He can go to any dog park and have fun with the new dogs without any issues or problems. They are the best!

Annette was so great with my dog Nova! Her fenced in yard was perfect for playing and sniffing, two of my dog’s favorite activities! Nova had such a fun filled day and even took a trip to the dog park nearby with Annette and her dog!

Marlina was fantastic, was super sweet and accommodating for our shy puppy, especially with our dog’s needs for pee pads. She was very gentle and considerate in introducing her dogs to Luna one at a time so everyone could get acquainted smoothly and successfully! We loved the pictures taken throughout the day! Luna had a wonderful time during her play date with Marlina and her dogs!

About: Your pet's new favorite human (after you, of course I bring veterinary experience and a foster's heart to every walk, drop-in, and boarding stay. I'm comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from high-energy pups to shy or sensitive pets who need a little extra patience. Whether we're out for a fun, structured walk or relaxing at home, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress-free. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, so your pet feels understood and cared for every step of the way. I'm also confident with basic handling, medication routines, and keeping a clean, calm environment. Safety is always my priority-secure leashes, awareness of surroundings, and thoughtful care. You'll get plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication, so you always know how your pet is doing. With me, your pet gets more than just care-they get attention, patience, and lots of love. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I work in a veterinary hospital, and in my home, someone is always present—so pets get constant supervision, playtime, and companionship. I keep routines consistent and tailor care to each pet. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be part of our daily life. Safety and trust are my top priorities, especially when pets are staying in my home. I create a calm, structured environment where they can settle in comfortably and feel secure. My home features a fully fenced acre where dogs can safely run, play, sunbathe, or relax in the shade. I’m experienced managing multiple dogs and cats, so I carefully supervise all interactions and match energy levels to keep everyone safe and stress-free. I stick closely to your pet’s routine—including feeding schedules, medications, and preferences—so their stay feels familiar and consistent. With hands-on veterinary experience, I’m also able to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and respond quickly if needed. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a quieter space, I adjust to their needs and let them settle in at their own pace. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in a safe, attentive, and loving environment.

Angela and her husband were absolutely amazing to my mini goldenoodle! I need somewhere or our dog to stay while painters painted inside our home. Angela is a gem! She was so easy to talk with and kept in touch with updates and photo. She went out of her way to make Millie feel comfortable and it worked. I think Millie would have moved in with her if I needed her to! I won’t hesitate to contact her again. She’s a superb choice for any person to wants/needs o leave their pet in a loving and caring home. Couldn’t think of anything she could do better❣️

About: Hi, I'm Alexa! I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have cared for many of my own, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs and personalities. Over the years, I’ve provided dependable pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and families in my hometown, earning their trust through consistent, attentive care. I treat every pet as if they were my own—prioritizing their comfort, safety, and happiness at all times. As a college student pursuing a degree in the medical field, I bring a heightened level of awareness, responsibility, and knowledge when it comes to overall care and well-being. I am detail-oriented, reliable, and committed to maintaining routines that keep pets feeling secure and stress-free. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or companionship, I provide a calm, nurturing environment that pet owners can feel confident in. I ADORE ALL FUR BABIES! As a college student currently taking online courses, I have a very flexible and consistent daily routine that allows me to prioritize your pets care throughout the day. My schedule gives me the ability to be present for feedings, walks, playtime, and regular check-ins without feeling rushed. I don't have weekends marked as a guarantee, but I may be available and will always be open to working something out, so don't be afraid to reach out! 🩷 I care for pets like they’re my own and try to keep them as comfortable as possible. In a client’s home, I stick to their usual routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and anything else they’re used to—so they don’t feel stressed while their owner is away. I also make sure to keep things clean and send updates with photos. If I’m caring for pets in my apartment, I make sure they have a safe, clean space and get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. I pay attention to each pet’s personality and what they need so they feel happy and relaxed.

About: I don't have any professional experience, but I've grown up in a family that has housed a lot of dogs and cats since I was born. We've had 4 dogs and 7 cats from my early childhood until today, so while I did obviously have the rest of my family to assist with them, I've still had firsthand experience with a lot of different behaviors and habits of these pets and how certain traits or preferences vary between them. I finished college at UGA recently, so I'm currently at home full-time. Pet care would be pretty easy to fit into my weekly schedule. I always try to make sure I feed my cat her treats once a day around the same time, so consistent feeding and cleaning wouldn't be that much harder with additional pets. I am gone some evenings on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, but other than that my time is fully open to help your pets stay relaxed, happy, and healthy. My backyard has a fence, but it's currently old and unrepaired, so the gates cannot close properly, so any pets prone to running will be staying inside or on a leash. My house is very small, but my front and backyard are very spacious, ideal for pets that are uncomfortable in small spaces. My cat can be skittish around other animals, so I will need to keep her in a separate space from them, but my family's done that with many of our cats, so it will not be a problem for the client or their pets. My roommate stays inside most of the time, so but he's also very friendly and should not pose any issues for the pets.

About: After the passing of my senior dog, Fezzik, I felt the need to share my care for pets with others in my community. With experience volunteering at animal shelters and caring for senior animals, I can be the attentive caregiver your furry companion needs! I currently am starting my career in online teaching and content creation, which means I work from home and have a flexible schedule. With frequent walks already built into my schedule, I am a good fit for pets of any activity level! I live in a gated community with ample space for leashed walks and time in the grass for pets who are boarding. I maintain a clean, second-story apartment which includes a balcony and dog bed. I have my own transportation for at-home visits as well.

About: What sets me apart is the level of real care and attention I give every pet. I treat them like family, not just a job. I’m patient, observant, and experienced with different personalities, including energetic puppies and calm senior pets. I can help reinforce basic puppy training like routines, potty habits, and behavior, while also providing gentle, attentive care for older pets who need extra comfort, medication reminders, or slower-paced attention. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I prioritize consistency, reliability, and attention. I plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the time and care they need. I’m organized and flexible, so whether it’s early mornings, evenings, or multiple visits throughout the day, I make sure pets are never rushed or overlooked. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I give each visit my full focus and make it a regular, dependable part of my week. I provide care based on each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and scheduled feeding. I monitor behavior closely to make sure pets are adjusting well and getting the care they need. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets in their familiar space and sticking to their usual routine, including feeding, walks, litter or potty care, playtime, and any specific instructions like medication or special needs. I respect your home, keep everything clean, and provide updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: I grew up with a house that was always full of animals. Dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, fish, even pet rats; I've cared for many kinds of fur babies. My family has had many breeds of dogs that I've been close to and helped raise/care for including German Shepherds, Boxers, Pitties, Terroirs, Goldens, Spaniels, Weimaraners and shelter mixes. All animals have a unique personality, and I know that some pets may take more time to adjust to a new friend than others.I have confidence that I can walk, bathe, feed and even help administer some medications for your family pet. I am a firm believer that all animals deserve love and affection. I currently have a cat, Lil Guy (crazy orange cat) and a dog, Dave (black lab/lap dog). I understand that our pets are incredibly important, and that we all want the best for them. I will treat your animals with just as much love, compassion, patience, and affection as I would my own. I am new to the area, and am looking for work that can that can sustain my financial needs. I would LOVE it if helping to care for pets became that opportunity. I am happy to come by and take your pet for a walk, a bath, a play date at the dog park, grab a bite to eat, see the vet, play with the cat, clean the litter box, and anything in between.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Woodlands

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 382 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Woodlands. 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 Woodlands 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 GA 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 382 sitters in Woodlands, 84% 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.
