“My Whiskey loves going to Rodney's house. He comes home exhausted from all the running and playing he does with the other dogs. I highly recommend Rodney as a sitter.”
About: I've had pets of all different sizes since I was a child, which has given me a lot of experience in pet care. I've cared for fish, birds, reptiles, cats, dogs, and horses, so I feel comfortable with a variety of animals. Currently, I take care of 6 dogs, 3 cats, horses, and a scarlet macaw at home. This diverse background sets me apart from other sitters because I can tend to any pet's needs, regardless of age, and I will love them as if they were one of my own. I spend all day focused on my pets and their needs. I wake up at 7 am to walk and feed my dogs, which is a great way to start the day. During my free time, I train with my bird, working on his skills and building our bond. I love taking my dogs to the pond to swim and play fetch; it's always a fun time for them! Right now, I'm also training my macaw in free flight, which is an exciting challenge. My days are very animal-oriented, and I truly enjoy it. I plan to become an equine vet someday because I love working with animals and the education that comes with it. Every day is a new opportunity to learn and grow alongside my pets! I care for pets in my home by providing multiple fenced areas where the dogs can play alone or with other dogs while staying secure. We also have a pond area where they can swim and have fun. When I'm in my clients' homes, I make sure the pet is safe and comfortable, attending to all their needs. I’ll play with them, ensure they're fed, and I always send check-ins to the owner to keep them updated. Your pets will feel loved and well cared for, no matter where they are!
“Rome was so excited to see Ms. Kimberly! When your pup almost beats you to the door, you know he’s in good hands. Kimberly takes such great care of our fur baby. He truly enjoys his visits.”
“Lora is such a great sitter, so responsive and knows my dog well. She’s got a great location and even on days where she’s busy she’s often got a helping hand to make sure all dogs are taken care of”
“Brianna was a joy to work with. We dropped our pup off in the morning and we were sent photos and updates which was wonderful. I strongly recommend Brianna if you’re looking for an engaged and thoughtful dog sitter. 10/10!”
“Lydia Is an awesome sitter! My dog Bennett absolutely thrives there, she takes him on little adventures he plays outside it’s wonderful! I would highly recommend her! She also sends pictures all the time which I adore!”
About: Hello! Thank you for considering me for caring for your fur baby! I work full time from home and have the flexibility to drop in your home to meet any and all your dog's needs. You want to bring your dog over for the day? Great! I offer doggie daycare services that included walks and playtime in the yard. You're planning a trip? I got you! I offer in my home boarding. I own a 6 year old golden retriever who loves to meet new friends. I have experience with dogs of all ages, medication management, and dogs who need a little extra love and attention. I pride myself on communion and making sure you feel comfortable knowing your dog is in good hands. Items provided in my home: crate, dog bed, toys, treats (if allowed). Please share any specific needs or behaviors your dog may have so they can have the most positive experience! I work full-time from home. That allows me flexibility to drop into your home as well as care for and give plenty of attention to dogs in my home. I have a 6 year old golden retriever who loves to make new friends. My yard is not fenced but I have a great neighborhood for walking, as well as a large yard to walk your dog on a leash. Working from home I am around most of the day. If I have to go out, the dogs will not be left alone together. I have a crate in my home that I use. If you would like to bring your own, that is welcome as well!
“Kyasia was amazing! She sent updates with pics and was very accommodating with our drop off and pickup times. Our pup seemed much less anxious than when she stays with the sitter we normally use. Thank you, Ky!”
About: I have had pets since a child (duck, rabbit, dogs, cats, iguanas) and just love them. I let dogs take their time when exploring and I don’t rush them unless I see that they have found a Scooby snack. Most dogs prefer to sit in my lap even when in the presence of their owner. They love me and I love them even the sassiest of them. I work from home which allows me to be available 24 hours a day. If your pet is a foodie, they will love it here (salmon bites, duck necks, chicken feet, ice cream, pup cups and frozen fruit on hot days). I will send an update the first evening and the morning after so you are certain that they have settled in. Thereafter I will send a picture or video daily but you are welcomed to check in at any time. My assistant Imani (my mom who lives with and assists with sitting), also enjoys loving on and helping with your babies. She may help with check in/ check out and walks. **I now have a cat and cannot accept dogs that aren’t cat friendly. I also cannot accept unfixed dogs and dogs that aren’t housebroken. I walk 3-5 miles in the morning and another in the evenings (less depending on the weather). I would love to take your baby along. I have a friendly dog. I use baby gates and can also crate your dog (you must bring the crate with you). They would sleep in my bedroom on the dog beds and have free range of the house (except the kitchen which has a gate up).
“My pup, Yumi, had a great time with Melanie and her pup. It was our first time doing a daycare service with Yumi but Melanie was very attentive and sweet to my Yumi. She was also very accommodating when my schedule had to change a bit as well and i greatly appreciate that. I felt comfortable and safe leaving Mr fur baby in her hands and would definitely book again in the future.”
“Megan was so helpful and welcoming, she has a great space for dogs and a wonderful family. She was very attentive to what my dog needed and always gave updates throughout the day. I’ll definitely be coming back so my dog can have fun with her and her family”
“Poppy gets excited to get to Crissy's house and enjoys her time with Dublin. Crissy is flexible on timing when I've bumped into conflicts, and adjusting recurring days.”
About: Hello, my name is Pam, I am a current pet parent who lives in Carroll County, MD. I have a passion for animals and their care. I would love to assist you with the care of your pets as well. 😀 I have been caring for pets in my community, since I was very small. I have personal experience taking care of my own pets at home, keeping their cages and clean and emptying and maintaining my cats litter boxes. I have several pets, l have a hamster and a cat, as well as two Guineapigs. I give them lots of treats. Currently, I am looking to provide pet care and assistance to those in my community, part-time.

“Kelly took amazing care of our puppy Murphy!! She sent me many photos and videos throughout the day, she took the dogs on long walks and gave them lots of playtime, she made sure my puppy had time to take a nap, and she was very responsive. Kelly and her dog Callie are incredibly sweet and I give them my highest recommendation!! We hope that Murphy will return to play soon!”
“Leydis has been amazing with Laila! She truly cares for her like her own, keeps her active, well cared for, and happy. I really appreciate the updates and feel completely at ease leaving her in her care. Highly recommend!”
“Robin made it really easy to drop my dog off and pick him up. He had a great playdate while we were going out for lunch. Robin sent lots of cute pictures and videos.”
“We could not have had a better experience with Veronica! We were just in town for the weekend for a conference and needed a day care for the dogs one day. Veronica was so accommodating and sought to make our 2 pups feel right at home. She gave us plenty of photos throughout the day which was very comforting and so cute to see our pups with the other dogs. If ever we need dog sitting in Bmore again we will definitely seek her out again!”

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Boring
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,508 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Boring. 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 Boring 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.
As of November 2026, there are 1,508 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MD. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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 MD 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 1,508 sitters in Boring, 88% 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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
