“Kelsi and her family were wonderful hosts to Fin! They were adaptable as I needed a last minute pet sit for a couple of hours. Fin loved hanging at their house and he was super comfortable the whole time. I would definitely book with Kelsi again!”

About: Your dog becomes part of the family the moment they arrive 🐾💛 I provide a safe, structured, and loving environment where every dog is cared for like my own. With over 4 years of hands on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, you can feel confident your dog is in capable and knowledgeable hands. As a certified dog trainer, I go beyond basic boarding by providing structure, guidance, and consistency throughout their stay. Whether it’s reinforcing commands, practicing leash manners, or simply maintaining a calm routine, your dog is always learning and thriving ✨🐶 I also have three personal dogs of my own ranging from 1 to 8 years old, so I truly understand the different needs, energy levels, and personalities that come with every stage of life 🐕🐕‍🦺🐾 My goal is to give your dog a comfortable, enriching, and stress free stay while giving you complete peace of mind knowing they’re safe, happy, and well cared for Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because I’m a stay-at-home mom and a part-time dog trainer who works out of my own home. I’m already home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and consistent care without long periods alone. My training background also means I understand dog behavior, routines, and safety, so your pet gets both loving care and structured supervision in a calm, home-based environment. When pets stay in my home, they become part of my daily routine and are treated like family. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment with plenty of supervised playtime, regular potty breaks, and time to relax. I follow each pet’s feeding schedule and any special instructions closely, including medications if needed. Because I’m home most of the day, I’m able to give them lots of attention, affection, and structure, while using my dog training experience to reinforce good behavior and keep interactions positive and safe.

“Excellent situation. Lesley was awesome! Kind and loving to our dog. I felt very safe and comfortable leaving him there. Her property and space was as described. She was extremely helpful in setting up the sitting. Communication was fast and reliable. I am so very thrilled to have found Lesley for the few days we required Copper to stay with someone.i would definitely recommend her to someone else and use her again. I cannot sing enough praise. Highly satisfied with the experience.”

About: I have always been around all kinds of animals, and I worked with Bully Paws Pit Bull Rescue for many years. At one point I had 5 Pit Bulls, and they were my daughter’s best friends. Now that I am dog free, I miss having a furry friend around. Currently, I have two cats. I work from home day except Wednesday. Due to my flexible schedule, I am able to cater to your pets needs to make sure they are getting the love they need. I have a fenced back yard and a great neighborhood to walk in. I work from home, so I am always at your pet's beck and call. At your home, I can work as needed and spend time with your pet in the comfort of their own home.

About: Hi, I'm Emily! I've been drawn to animals of all kinds since I was a kid! I grew up taking care of both cats and dogs, and have had a dog of my own since 2021. I'm well-versed in animal care; in addition to the basics (walks, feeding, play), I'm familiar with many common needs, like medication administration, training/behavioral reinforcement, and gland expression. I have a flexible schedule and typically respond to requests within a few hours. I'm able to spend a lot of my time at home; usually when I'm out of the apartment, it's for no more than about four hours or so at a time. My standard schedule is to provide three walks a day (morning, midday, evening) plus a quick potty break before bedtime, but I can adjust that up or down depending on your dog's needs. Dogs staying with me can expect lots of pets, cuddles, and playtime. I do allow pets on my furniture and bed, but if that's a behavior you're trying to limit, I can take that into account while your pet is staying here. At all times, and especially when outside, the safety of your pet is paramount to me. During walks, I actively monitor for dangerous situations/behaviors, like encounters with unfamiliar dogs or trying to eat things they shouldn't. Please feel free to share anything about your pet that I should take into account while they're in my care.

About: Hi! I’m a dependable, caring dog lover who treats every pet as if they were my own. I understand that pets are family, and my goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or feeding, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique personality and needs. Why Choose Me? ✔ Patient, attentive, and reliable ✔ Clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment ✔ Regular updates with photos and messages ✔ Genuinely love spending time with animals I work from home, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I also have a friendly dog of my own, so your pup will have a built-in buddy for play and socialization. Because I’m home most of the time, I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s routine, provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. Your dog will never be left alone for long and will be treated like part of the family. I care for pets as if they were my own, with safety, trust, and comfort as my top priorities. In my home, pets stay in a clean, calm environment with a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor play and potty breaks. I also have crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet, safe space to relax.

About: I’m an expert at giving stubborn dogs their medication! And I love tucking fur babies into bed. I have a doggy of my own (Shih-Tzu & Havanese mix) that has many toys ready to share with new furry friends!! I live in an apartment with minimal yard space, but I do like going for walks in the fan district & Monroe Park, so if you leave your dog with me, rest assured that they’ll get to walk and do their business on a vast yard!!! I am not available during class days: Tues- 12:30-3:30, Wed-1:00-1:50, and Thurs-2:00-3:30. **STILL AVAILABLE THESE DAYS, just work around my class schedule please! When I’m home, I always like to make sure I have my eye on my pet/your pet. I do allow pets on furniture (if you like differently then I will respect and honor that boundary)! I’m able to give meals whenever according to your pet’s schedule :) I’m able to administer oral medications, and I am also educated on dog and cat behaviors. If I am watching your pet in your home, I will also keep the house tidy and make sure no accidents occur with your pet!

I needed someone to care for my Iggy puppy during the day when visiting from out of town and I'm so glad I found Hanna! She provided great communication from booking to pickup and took lots of pictures and videos! She took excellent care of Gus and made me feel so comfortable leaving him for the day. She even sent him home with a thank you gift! 100% will book with her again!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Calno

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 573 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Calno. 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 Calno 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 October 2026, there are 573 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of VA. 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 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 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 573 sitters in Calno, 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.
