¿Qué es Dog Daycare?

Dog daycare on The Pet Sitter means your dog spends the day at a sitter's home while you're at work, running errands, or just need a break. Unlike commercial doggy daycare centres that can house 30–50 dogs in one facility, home-based daycare keeps the group small — typically 1–4 dogs — for a calmer, more personalised experience.

Home daycare is particularly good for dogs who find large-group commercial daycare overstimulating, for puppies who need more individual attention, or for older dogs who can't keep up with the manic energy of a big facility. Your dog gets play time, rest time, and plenty of human interaction in a relaxed home setting.

Sitters set their own daycare rates and keep every dollar. No commission means your sitter is motivated to provide excellent care rather than rush through a volume-based business model.

Preguntas frecuentes

What hours does daycare cover?

Daycare typically runs from morning drop-off (7–9am) to evening pick-up (5–7pm). Exact hours vary by sitter — check their profile or discuss during the meet-and-greet.

How many dogs will mine be with?

Home daycare sitters typically accept 1–4 dogs at a time, far fewer than commercial facilities. The maximum is listed on each sitter's profile.

Does my dog need to be vaccinated?

Yes, most sitters require up-to-date vaccinations (at minimum: distemper, parvovirus, and kennel cough). Bring proof of vaccination to the meet-and-greet.

Can I book daycare for just 1–2 days a week?

Yes! Many owners use daycare 2–3 days per week rather than every day. Your sitter will work with you to find a schedule that suits both of you.
