“Bugra absolutely loved my dog and took such great care of her! It was such a relief since this was my first time using Rover. He sent pics and updates throughout the day and is great at communicating. I will definitely use him again. Highly recommend.”
“Mocha is a regular client of LaurieBeth's since we adopted her a few months ago. Mocha is always so excited to spend the day with her and gets lots of affection and exercise. I am also super appreciative of LaurieBeth because Mocha is working on her obedience training and LaurieBeth didn't hesitate to help us reinforce the behaviors. So grateful!”
“Daphne took great care of Joey. She is super friendly, easy to communicate with and very attentive to Joey’s needs / behaviour. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you 😊”
About: Our family of five discovered just how much joy a dog can bring when we welcomed our Coton de Tulear, Kova, into our home. Since then, caring for him has become something we all enjoy—from walks and playtime to simply spending time together. Kova is naturally a little anxious, so he’s taught us to be patient, observant, and respectful of every dog’s unique personality and comfort level. We’ve also experienced what it’s like to trust someone else with a beloved pet when we’ve traveled, and those positive experiences inspired us to become Rover sitters ourselves. My goal is to provide the same peace of mind to other families by treating every dog with kindness, patience, and genuine affection. For me, pet sitting isn’t just about feeding and walks—it’s about making sure each dog feels welcomed, comfortable, and loved until they’re back with their family. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because we already plan our days around Kova. Every day includes walks, outdoor time, play, meals, and plenty of companionship. Since either my wife or I work from home every day, someone is almost always home to provide attention, potty breaks, exercise, and care throughout the day. We’re also happy to follow your dog’s normal schedule, including meal times, medications, favorite activities, or any special instructions that help them feel comfortable. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our highest priorities. We have a fully fenced backyard for supervised play and live in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. We take the time to make sure every dog settles in at their own pace and can provide separate space if they prefer a quieter environment. We’ll carefully follow your care instructions, including feeding routines, medications, exercise, and any special needs. To help you feel connected while you’re away, we’ll send at least one daily update with photos so you can see how your dog is doing and enjoy your time away with confidence.
“Kiran and his dogs Mysti and Maya were great company for my 65 lb lab-pitt mix Dudley. Dudley would run to the door every morning waiting to go see them and return home in the evening satisfied and tired. Kiran is super friendly and considerate. I hurt my leg one evening, on my way home from work, and Kiran was kind enough to squeeze in one extra walk right before I retrieved Dudley to get him to poop so I wouldn’t have to with my bum leg. This is after he kept Dudley for a very long day. I highly recommend his services and am saving him to my « favorites » list. :) Thank you, Kiran!”
“Jenn was very easy to work with! She was always quick to respond and understood all my anxious dog's needs. My dog had a great day with her and I was sure she was in good hands. I would highly recommend Jenn for all your pet needs!!!!”
About: 30+ Years of Experience: Puppies to Seniors I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for over three decades, caring for a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I understand how to read canine body language and cater to different life stages: Puppies: Patient with potty routines, basic manners, and high-energy play. Seniors: Gentle, attentive, and experienced with mobility support, low-impact routines, and administering oral or topical medications on a strict schedule. Work-From-Home Care & Supervision As a self-employed professional working full-time from home, your pet will never be left alone for long stretches. Whether they need a mid-day bathroom break, a play session, or just someone present to keep them company while I work, I offer consistent supervision and a calm, reliable routine throughout the day. Pet-Friendly Home & Spacious Fenced Yard Our entire home is fully set up for dogs! We have a spacious, fully fenced backyard where pups can safely run, play, and explore. We also have one high-energy, super-friendly resident dog who loves meeting new friends and playing with our furry guests. If your dog prefers a buddy to burn off energy with, they’ll have a built-in playmate here. Active Walks & Nearby Trails I love staying active! Living right near several fantastic walking trails makes it easy to provide fresh air, structured exercise, and mental stimulation tailored to your dog's fitness level—whether that’s a lively stride on the trails or a relaxed sniff-walk around the neighborhood.
“Once again an amazing day of daycare with Nina! Coco has so much fun with Kobe and Maggie, he loves it! Nina is an excellent communicator and her photo and video updates of Coco going about his day are super adorable. We feel very comfortable and at peace leaving Coco in Nina's care. Thank you!”
“Jon and Johanna are great care providers. I felt totally confident with their help with my dog Enzo. They clearly love dogs, especially dachshunds and are very structured in keeping my dog engaged and active and involved with training and fun activities. I will definitely keep them in mind for future bookings. I really appreciate the help they gave me this week.”
“Dip had a great time with Marcel. We will definitely be a repeat customer. Plenty of yard space, great location, attentive care and walks added up to a good day for Dip at Marcel’s.”
About: I have over six years of experience providing dedicated care for dogs and one year with cats, specializing in everything from overnight house sitting to daily visits for walks, meals, and playtime. As a full-time pet care professional, I easily manage multi-pet households and design balanced routines tailored to each animal's needs. I have extensive experience supporting both high-energy puppies who need basic training reinforcement and senior pets requiring extra patience, gentle pacing, and medication administration. I am incredibly detail-oriented, remain completely calm under pressure, and prioritize consistent communication by sending regular text, photo, and video updates. At home, I have a friendly one-year-old Chihuahua mix who loves welcoming new dog companions. While I dedicate my own mornings, middays, and evenings to your animals, I am personally occupied on weekends between 5:00 PM and 10:00 PM. During this brief window, my wife will step in to care for the pets, ensuring your animals are never left unattended and receive uninterrupted, reliable attention. I am genuinely passionate about animals—the kind of person who always stops to greet a dog on the sidewalk—and we will treat your pets with the absolute love, safety, and respect they deserve as members of the family. Pet care is the central focus of my daily schedule. Because I have a highly flexible routine, I am able to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, and structured play sessions throughout the day. My mornings start with fresh water, feeding, and an initial stretching walk, followed by regular check-ins and companionship every few hours and an evening walk. On weekends, I dedicate extra time to longer walks, outdoor play, ensuring every guest feels safe, engaged, and fully integrated into a stable daily flow. I treat every pet as if they were a member of my own family. Safety and comfort are my top priorities, so I closely follow any specific feeding schedules, house rules, and instructions you provide. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine to minimize any separation anxiety. I provide constant companionship, keep a watchful eye during play, and give plenty of individual attention, affection, and belly rubs so they feel completely safe and loved while you are away.
“Sharon did an amazing job with our high-energy lab puppy Luna. Our dog was tired day after we picked her up, which is nothing short of a miracle! Her place is set up very well for multiple dogs, and I appreciated her thorough communication throughout the day and also at pick-up. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Ginger's first stay (daycare) with Ella was a wonderful experience! She made Ginger feel comfortable very quickly, and it was clear that Ginger was well cared for and happy. She came home relaxed and content, which gave me so much peace of mind. Thank you so much, Ella, for making Ginger's first experience such a positive one. I truly appreciate the great care you gave my baby Ginger! 🐾💕 - We are looking forward for the upcoming onboarding :)”
“Sancho may be a spoiled little Frenchie, but he met his match with this amazing sitter! She treated him like royalty, even hand-feeding him when he decided his food bowl was beneath him. 🐾 I came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and that says it all. If you’re looking for someone who loves your dog like their own (and has the patience of a saint), she’s the one!”
“Captain blueberry had an amazing day at Carla's! She got along so well with her dog and loved her family. The outdoor space and the walks. Thank you so much for being good to her, it absolutely made my day so easy, and I am so thrilled to see how happy she was there!”

Amulya is an incredible host! My puppy loves visiting her and is genuinely excited to see her, which speaks volumes about the care she provides. She is responsive, provides plenty of (photo) updates during the stay, and is attentive and keen enough to learn and anticipate her furry guests’ needs and behaviors.
I dropped my precious Clover off in the morning for her first day of doggy daycare with Deborah, her daughter and her sweet dog, Lotus. Deborah was amazing from start to finish with the booking process and the care provided. She sent frequent updates with photos and even a video so I could see how well Clover’s day was going! She was incredibly communicative, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure everything went well. Clover was spoiled with a lot of cuddle time and clearly felt right at home based on the photos. Clover came home tired from all of the playing and walking, but otherwise happy and relaxed. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Deborah again for daycare or overnight care. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone loving, responsible, and truly attentive to watch their furry family member!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Ashburn on Rover is $44.4 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Ashburn 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 VA 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 4,750 sitters in Ashburn, 86% 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.
