“Chris was very patient, flexible, accommodating, and understanding. We had last minute plans and needed someone to look after our Saint Bernard. We did a meet and greet and a daycare session to get her comfortable before we leave and he did a great job!”
“Ligia is the best. She’s very accommodating and great with my dog. She communicates well and provides updates throughout the day. I 100% would recommend her for anyone that needs daycare for their pet.”
“My dog Diego had never been in doggie daycare before and I was nervous to leave him. Also being a puppy, I felt bad knowing he doesn't always know his strength and when to go out. He was evidently a good dog, and I didn't have to come get him early. I highly recommend Eldeen!”
“This was my first booking with Seyla. I must admit my anxiety level was through the roof. Darla is very active, stubborn and has not been around other dogs. My anxiety melted away after receiving videos and pictures of Darla on several hikes socializing and running with the other dogs. This was an awesome experience for both of us. I already booked her next adventure with Seyla 🐕🙌🏽”
“Connie was amazing with Thor! Besides being available last minute, she went above and beyond. She has a super warm personality and made Thor feel at ease right away. He was so happy to run around in her yard. She even packed some homemade treats for him to take home! She was just fantastic and I highly recommend. We will absolutely reach out again when we need help with our pup.”
About: I absolutely adore animals. I have four children who are also huge animal lovers so if you board with us in home your pet will be absolutely doted on. Pet parents will be hard pressed to find a family that will take better care of your pet or give them as much love and attention. I love being outside and going on long walks and would love to accompany your dog on their daily walk. We have a tremendous amount of time to play with your pet, take them on walks, and give them the attention they not only require but also deserve. We have a decent sized fenced in yard which is perfect for lots of play time! We are very attentive to animals and have experience giving medication including shots.
“⸻ Pedro had an amazing day with Yeny and Ray! He got plenty of playtime with his new furry friends, Charlie and Leo. When we got home, Pedro was happily tired and ready for bed. Yeny and Ray sent us photos and videos throughout the day, and communication was great. We’ll definitely book with them again!”
About: I’ve had a lifelong love for animals and years of experience caring for a wide variety of pets—including dogs, cats, fish, snakes, pigs, and even chickens! Currently, I share my home with three beloved cats—Captain, Haven, and Slasher—and one sweet pup, Lucy, who keeps life fun and full of love. In addition to caring for my own fur babies, I regularly house-sit and pet-sit for friends and family. I'm currently unemployed due to medical reasons, which gives me a flexible schedule to accommodate potty breaks, playtime, feeding routines, and check-ins—even if I’m not staying overnight. I like to start with a meet and greet to get to know you and your pets. During that time, I ask clients to walk me through their routine and expectations, and I encourage leaving a detailed care list I can refer back to as needed. My goal is to keep things as smooth, stress-free, and loving as possible—for both you and your pets. I'd love the opportunity to care for your fur babies with the same attention and affection I give my own. Let's chat about how I can help! Pet care is already a big part of my daily life with my own cats and dog. I plan my day around feeding, potty breaks, and playtime, so adding in care for other pets fits naturally into my routine. My flexible schedule allows me to easily accommodate visits, walks, or overnight stays based on your pet’s needs. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow any specific routines or instructions provided and make sure pets are in a secure, clean, and stress-free environment. I take the time to build trust with each pet, move at their pace, and keep their daily routines as consistent as possible. I also encourage clients to leave detailed care notes to ensure nothing is missed.
“Audree was so great with my babies! She is so sweet. I really appreciated the pictures and video of both dogs. This was my first time using Rover and I’m so happy I found her!!”
“Linda and family took great care of Layla. She stresses easily in her old age but not at all stressed with them. They communicated with me several times during her stay and even sent pictures. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve been caring for my family pets since I was in middle school and have 13 years of experience doing at-home dog boarding. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes from yorkies to Great Danes, and love creating a cozy, safe environment for them while their owners are away. I have also had a lovable, goofy dog of my own for 7 years now, so I understand how important it is to trust your pet is well taken care of. :) My husband and I have been doing Rover for about 2 years now and have a good routine for playtime and evening walks with pets! While I work in the city, my husband works from home, so he provides love and care all day. Our dogs as well as our visiting pets love to hang out in his office with him between playing outside and getting treats. :) Whether your pet is coming into my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I prioritize their comfort, routine, and happiness. I default to your preferences for feeding schedules, exercise, play time, and any crating preferences. This way your pet feels with their usual routine!
About: Hello! I currently teach in stafford county And looking to help some families care for their fury babies. I’ve enjoyed being around animals since I was really young!

I’m honest, trust worthy and caring! I have experience with small dogs and larger dogs. I have always enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them. I grew up with cats and dogs, so I love both animals! I’m very organized and genuine. Looking forward to meeting a family whose fury baby I can help care for! Message me if looking :)!
About: I have taken care of other people's pets for 15+ years along with housesitting. I have also worked for Wag! (Dog walking app) for years and I have also worked professionally for Queen City Pet-sitting in North Carolina. I am energetic, outgoing, patient, experienced, adaptable, and passionate. I am also a professional contemporary dancer and teacher. I have owned dogs, cats, fish, birds, hermit crabs, and a turtle. I am friendly, reliable, punctual, and would love to take care of your pet(s)! Let me know if you have any questions or anything else you’d like to know.

I also live close to a greenway for nice long walks. I can easily crate your pet if needed as well.
“My husband & I were so pleased with Dayonna's success at managing the needs of our terrier dog who tends to be anxious and shy. She provided Spot with particular care and loving attention. We have already booked another care date with her during our 3 day weekend next week. So grateful to have found Dayonna! Joan & Leonard”
About: Hi there! Backed by a professional background in grooming and large-scale facility work, I offer your pup the kind of specialized care they deserve. My small-scale, personal approach ensures every dog gets dedicated attention in a safe, comfortable home-away-from-home setting. Guests enjoy a fully climate-controlled indoor space featuring their own designated area and personal cot to relax and sleep soundly. Plus, a built-in doggy door gives them 24/7 access to a secure, 3,000-square-foot outdoor run within my fully fenced yard (cameras coming soon!). Your dog's comfort and safety are my top priorities. We treat every guest like family, ensuring your fur baby stays comfy, cozy, and completely pampered. With years of experience in large-scale facilities caring for over 150 dogs at once, we bring big-facility safety standards to a warm, personal setting where your pup is always our top priority. We provide around-the-clock care in a secure, home-based setting tailored specifically for canine comfort. Unlike high-volume commercial facilities, our setup limits capacity to ensure every dog gets personalized attention, plenty of playtime, and a cozy resting spot.
About: I've been caring for dogs of all ages for over 7 years. I worked at a dog daycare for over 5 years. I helped watch up to 30 dogs of all ages and sizes on my own. I also helped bathe them, trim/dremmel their nails, and clean their ears/teeth. I currently work remotely from 10am-7pm. Also my account is marked as a smoking home as for boarding and daycare purposes as my mother-in-law lives with us and she smokes in her room. I do not smoke at all. I have experience handling multiple dogs at once. I have been certified for cpr for canines as well. I have also been trained to break up incidents between dogs as well through my job at a dogdaycare and apply basic medical treatment to injuries.
“This was my very first-time using Rover, and when I say I am overly pleased. Richardine is AWESOME! I was so nervous to use the service because I had just had a pup pass away, and I did not know what I was going to do going forward. I did a meet and greet with Richardine, and I knew at that moment, my pup will be with Richardine each time I will need a sitter. Very personable, reliable, and made sure I received photos throughout the day to let me know what my pup was doing. Once I picked my pup up, she was playing, and happy. I am truly overjoyed with the service that I received. Thank you so much Richardine, and I will see you very soon. Latisha M.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 644 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Dickinsons Corner. 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 Dickinsons Corner 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 644 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 644 sitters in Dickinsons Corner, 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 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.
