“Kristi-Ann, Andrew and their pup Loki were so welcoming of my crazy mutt! They took him in like one of their own and have a great dog-friendly setup. Thanks for having him on a hot day—he had way more fun than staying at home!”
“Henry was great with Tucker! We needed a last minute sit and he was happy to accommodate. Life saver! He made sure that Tucker was comfortable and cared for. He kept us updated throughout the day - pictures and all - and was flexible on pickup time. I’m very happy to have found Henry for a day of daycare play.”
“First time Rover user, and Erin was fantastic! She’s very communicative, honest, and friendly. Much better experience than the kennel. Highly recommended!! Thanks again, Erin!!”
“Peace could not have had more fun with Michelle and Cinnamon running around in their very spacious back yard. It was a rainy day, but Peace didn't want to come inside. Michelle did a great job communicating to me and made sure Peace was dry when I picked her up. I seriously haven't seen Peace so excited about a daycare visit.”
“Tammy had surgery recently and I needed help looking after her. Veronica, who have taken care of her and my other dog Rover, is just the best! Tammy is a shy dog but loves going to Veronica. I’m so glad to have her. She took care of Tammy like her own. Tammy is now back on the mend and our family is so grateful. She is highly recommended!”

She is a natural with dogs and is a genuinely loving and caring person. We will definitely reach out to Daniela again for her stellar dog-sitting services.”
About: Pets have been a part of my family my entire life - dogs, cats, hamsters, fish… and some at the same time. I understand that your pet is a member of your family and they will be treated as such with me. I also know that pet care is not just playtime, they require care, constant attention, to follow what you have set for them in terms of schedule and routine, reinforced love… and of course playtime and cuddles! Your pet will be safe with me and I hope to be an extension of your family’s pet care team. I am available 24/7, including weekends and holidays. I work full time from home so your pet will have my constant attention and time to ensure safety, care, and FUN! I do not currently have any pets in the home. Another driving reason for wishing you’ll share your furbaby with me - I definitely miss the companionship, company, and fun a pet brings to the home and my day.
About: I have currently have 2 dogs which I adore so much! I love playing with dogs and love spending time with then and other dogs in my neighborhood on my free time. I will ensure your dog feels at home and will take care of them as if they were my own. I currently work from home full time along with my fiancé. I wake up early to walk my dogs in the Morning before all my work calls and will take them out again usually at noon after my last call. I also have a third person (my mom who’s retired) that is free all day that watches the dogs when I’m in my office. The dogs usually are free to roam around the house and there’s usually a person on all 3 floors. I have a fenced back yard that the dogs can play if they like. I also have a large crate in my basement as well. There are at least 2 people at home most of the day that will watch the dogs play. I am very attentive when I dog watch and will play with the dogs and/or walk them on my free time.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I regularly pet-sit my teacher’s two Maltese dogs, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owner is away. I’ve also helped care for a Great Pyrenees, which gave me experience handling large breeds that need confidence, patience, and attentive care. In addition, I’ve spent time around and built great relationships with my neighbors’ dogs, including a Corgi, an Australian Shepherd, and a Border Collie, which has helped me become comfortable with both playful companion breeds and highly active working dogs. Caring for my own rescue cats, Lily and Sky, has also taught me the importance of routine, gentle handling, and paying close attention to animal behavior. I treat every pet with patience, affection, and the same level of care I would want for my own. I’m flexible and able to provide attentive care throughout the day, especially during weekends and most weekdays. Since I’m local to Burke and nearby areas, I can reliably maintain your pet’s usual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and companionship. I’ll make sure your pets feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care instructions. I’m patient and attentive with animals of different temperaments, and I always prioritize a calm, clean, and secure environment. I also have experience caring for my two rescue cats, Lily and Sky, which has taught me the importance of gentle care, consistency, and paying attention to subtle behavioral changes.
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs (my sweet little bichon-mini poodle, a german shepherd and more recently a funny little Boston terrier that I am auntie to) and have cared for family and friends’ dogs throughout the years. I love taking dogs out for walks and playtimes in the park. I’m well versed in keeping fur babies to a set feeding and walking schedule. I currently work full time with a hybrid work-from-home schedule that allows me to take leisurely walks around the neighborhood each day! Would love to schedule my breaks to take your furry companions for walks and playtimes throughout the day! I’m open and honest in communication and I think that plays a vital role when coordinating walks and playtimes. I stick to given instructions and do everything I can to keep to a schedule.
About: I have had dogs of my own for over 10 years now. I have taken care of dogs of different sizes and temperaments for friends and neighbors from a few days to more than 2 weeks at a time. I would walk, feed and brush their pets, I am particularly good at giving belly rubs, ask my lab mix and she will confirm. Please note: I do not provide refund for early pickup. I am a stay at home parent so your pet will have me and my kids' company most of the day. We have a good size fenced in backyard so your pet will get plenty of fresh air and exercise. The drop off and pick up time will be discussed in advance, but typically drop off is after 8am and pick up is before 8pm. I do not provide refund for early pickup. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I am a stay at home parent so I will be there with the pet, if there is an emergency with your pet I will be there to act quickly. I will send you daily updates and photos so you know your dog are having fun with us.
“Hugo had a long day-care stay with Ayme - for over a month! Ayme's is his home away from home so it was a no-brainer that that's where Hugo would be while we had our bathrooms remodeled. Hugo enjoyed playing with his doggie friends every day, I think he's bored now. Thanks again, Ayme and Andrew!”
About: I've owned dogs most of my life!. From newborns to seniors with different needs. I love their unique, resilient, playful and grateful personalities. Through the years I've helped mommas during labor, cared for newborn puppies (2 with cleft palate), cared for my sweet girl during her last weeks with cancer, I've cared for a wonderful blind dog over the years (I still do! He is a Poodle❤️), I've rescued a stray dog without knowing she was pregnant and took care of her and then made sure her puppies went to good homes. Having their company is like chocolate to my soul! Then unfortunately my son developed a dog allergy when he was little :( so we couldn't have a dog but lately he is been getting better allowing him to be around "hypoallergenic" dogs. This why we would love to care for your hypoallergenic doggies. 👩🙎♂️🙋♀️I am a stay at home mom who enjoys the company of dogs specially when my preteen and teen are in school. I'm ready to spoil them and go for walks or running with them. Once they get home they like to play with the pups and get to know their personalities. 🏡Our townhouse has a high fenced patio. The neighborhood has a dog park if that's what they like. Our area is quiet and safe to walk around. Starbucks is close by in case they are allowed a pup cup ;)
“Awesome care of my fur baby!!! Dee is very accommodating and communicative. He provided me with updates along with pics/video, which confirmed what a great time my dog had there. Dee’s dog Miso is super sweet and played really well with my dog. Will definitely be booking again!!”
“We dropped our dog off at Rosario and Juan’s for the day, and our dog had a great time! Rosario was excellent at keeping us updated. By the time we came to pick her up, she barely wanted to leave!”

Megan gave Mango a great puppy friend experience today. Megan is very experienced with dogs and helped Mango overcome her timidness so she could have fun. Megan also works in training with the dogs. Mango is tired out, but not overly exhausted. Thank you Megan!
Michelle was especially great for my first time using Rover and Mangos first day care day. She helped me navigate and understand the app and the rules. She also allowed a meet and get, which i didn't think was an option when I first started looking at the app. She suggested I always do a meet and greet. Michelle sent me photos and updates about how Mango was doing. She helped Mango be brave and play with the other dogs and son they were all playing.
Marlee had an awesome day in daycare today. Kristi Ann did a great job taking care of her. Kristi has a very cozy home and is super dog friendly. In addition, Kristi is quick to respond to messages on Rover. She has a very positive “can do” attitude. Thank you Kristi Ann!
Finding a reliable and caring daytime dog sitter is incredibly important for us, and we've been very pleased with Beth. She has provided a consistent and safe environment for our dog, ensuring she gets regular walks and attention throughout the day. We appreciate the updates and photos, which let us know our pup is doing well. Beth is dependable and clearly cares for dogs, making her an excellent choice for daytime care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Burke on Rover is $35.52 per day (as of July 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 Burke 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 5,026 sitters in Burke, 87% 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.
