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.

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.

About: (Price is for dogs, cats have discount) I’ve taken care of different kinds of dogs for over 8 years. From small cutie to big buddy (100lb+). I live in a house with a unfenced yard, so there are plenty of space for our furry friends. I’m working remotely at home. So my schedule is pretty flexible. I can bring them out on morning and noon for a small walk. And can walk them longer after work. I live in a house with a yard( not fenced). I have two cats and a dog. My dog loves play with other dogs. Also cats and dogs can be isolated.

About: As an experienced house and pet sitter I will provide you with peace of mind so that you can travel with ease. I have many satisfied clients and their owners are happy to give you a recommendation! I have been in hospitality for many years as a 5 star AirBnB host and co-host. I often welcomed pets into my home. I know how strong the bond is between owners and pets. And just how important it is that owners can feel confident when entrusting their home and pets to a sitter. I’m also a Red Cross disaster responder in Logistics, Life/Safety/Asset protection, disaster assessment and client casework. Those skills serve me well in other ventures. I’m extremely responsible, dependable, fun, gregarious. **I recently moved into a condo in Lansdown. thrilled to be back in northern Virginia after 25 years on the central coast of California and the Monterey Bay. Sad to leave all my wonderful furry friends, but I am sure I will make new ones quickly. my parents also live in the complex. Great to be near family again. The majority of my business has been word-of-mouth, and that’s why you may not see many recent transactions here on Rover. This past year, my sister and her family(oakton) raised a black lab puppy for the guiding eyes program. Luckily, I was able to spend a good chunk of time in Virginia and got to interact with that wonderful dog, Eliza. We are now scheduled to do it again this fall with a new puppy named Charity. I will get to be more hands-on and participate in the trainings now that I am in Virginia full-time! I have also housesit for several of her neighbors in the Oakton Vale area as I often have come for visits, lasting several weeks or months. For the past several years, I’ve had the pleasure of adding to my skills by taking care of a 10 acre property in the Santa Cruz mountains. I’m responsible for 2 horses, 2 dogs, 2 cats and a chicken coop!! The owner is a retired Cal Fire Captain and current southwest flight attendant, who along with his wife are thrilled with my work ethic and commitment to their property and animals. They can now travel for several weeks in their RV or hop on a flight knowing that I have everything under control. I do take care of their property several times a year, but they are not on the Rover platform. after spending several years at their property, I now take care of a little mini farm. That includes a large flock of chickens and ducks, many goats, a couple of barn, cats, and a beehive. I also babysit for their young girls aged 9 and 10. Additionally, I have assisted the homeowner when they’ve had workshops on the property, the most recent workshops focused on making butter and on baking bread. I always feel honored to be of service in all my endeavors. I enjoy meeting new folks and their pets, taking walks in new neighborhoods or parks and spending quality time with animals. I have experience taking care of horses, chickens, ducks, goats, guinea pigs, fish, koi, lizards, dogs and cats oh and a bird. this is my full-time passion/job! I am also an Artist and paint in acrylics. I recently retired from managing a small apartment complex so I now have lots of free time for pet/house sitting and dog walking. pet care is my full-time hobby/job along with painting cooking and baking. I tend to spend a lot of time with my furry clients, and I adapt my schedule to their routine, walks playtime bellyrubs and more!

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.

About: It's a family affair and we treat yours like ours. As a family, we've been fostering rescue puppies and dogs for more than 18 years, providing care, training, medical support and, of course, lots of love. Whether you need a last-minute pop in for a potty break and snuggle, a walk with some basic leash training, or a week-long sitter, we can help. Someone is always around and working from home between mom, dad or our 2 college students so even last minute "going to happy hour" requests can be accommodated. We would love to meet you and your furry family! We're available on most days and times and can be flexible to meet your pet's needs. Last minute need or emergency? No problem! I can work to fit you in and have a backup team (aka college-age kids) who love pets as much as I do! We treat yours like ours - like Family! Your pet's comfort and happiness is most important. Once we get to know each other, we can have nice walks with some play and/or snuggle time - whatever they need! We only take one pet at a time for in-home services like boarding and doggie daycare and integrate them into our home. We even have a doggie door into a fenced yard but I prefer to do potty breaks/ walks as needed. I'm comfortable administering medications as prescribed and understand that every dog come with their own routine and special needs.

Phil and Amanda are amazing. Our two pugs can be skittish around other dogs and Phil and Amanda paired them with the perfect duo to help them get more comfortable. They took them on numerous walks and even let them snuggle in bed on an early morning drop off. I can’t recommend them more and I’ll use them again when we come to town.

About: I’ve been around dogs for years and currently care for my own two Chow Chows. I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and structured environment where pets feel comfortable and happy. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I know every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow your instructions and make sure your furry family member receives the care, attention, and affection they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away by providing dependable, compassionate care and regular updates. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine. I care for my own dogs every day, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. My schedule allows me to plan visits and walks consistently, and I make it a priority to provide reliable, attentive care. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk, or extended care, I’m committed to giving each pet the time and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, and comfortable environment where they can relax and feel at home. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also make sure they always have fresh water and a safe space to rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their home and follow all care instructions closely. I make sure pets are fed on time, receive the exercise and companionship they need, and keep their routines as consistent as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

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!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Ashburn Junction

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Ashburn Junction on Rover is $55.5 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 4,720 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Ashburn Junction. 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 Ashburn Junction 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 4,720 sitters in Ashburn Junction, 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.
