I normally don’t leave reviews, but it’s my sincere pleasure to sing Anna’s praises. I had a recurring daycare booking for my Irish Setter two days a week, and Anna was wonderful. Anna was reliable, kind, and clearly loves dogs. My dog was always excited to see her and came home happy and well cared for. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I’m so grateful we found her and would happily recommend Anna to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy dog sitter. Five Stars all around!!

We are so thankful to have found Paul! He excepted our booking very last minute and was so accommodating. Ebony doesn’t always do well in new places, but I think he would have preferred to stay with Paul even longer! Lots of walks, lots of pictures and updates. I especially appreciate how confident Paul is with socializing Ebony with other dogs, something I am always nervous about. Will definitely use Paul as a sitter in the future!

About: Hi, I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals throughout my life. Growing up surrounded by pets taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding each animal's unique personality and needs. Today, I work in healthcare, where compassion, attentiveness, and trust are at the core of everything I do. I bring those same qualities to every dog I care for, ensuring they receive safe, reliable, and loving attention while you're away. Whether your pup needs an energetic walk, extra companionship, or a caring friend to keep them active and happy, you can count on me to treat them like family. Dog walking is a regular part of my weekly schedule, and I prioritize providing dependable, consistent care for every dog. I carefully plan my day to accommodate scheduled walks, ensuring each pet receives appropriate exercise, attention, and outdoor time based on their individual needs. I maintain clear communication with pet owners, arrive on time, and provide updates when requested. My goal is to ensure every walk is safe, enjoyable, and beneficial for the dog's physical and mental well-being. I provide safe, attentive walks tailored to each dog's energy level and needs. I ensure they get exercise, mental stimulation, water when needed, and plenty of positive reinforcement during our time together

About: I am an animal lover to my core! I've had dogs my whole life, and have been proudly owned by Labs, French Bulldogs, and currently a pair of Chihuahuas. I have also cared for cats as long-term fosters! I volunteer with the French Bulldog Rescue Network, and have attended obedience classes at Capital Dog Training with several of my dogs. I have a special affinity for the smoosh-face breeds and the gentle giants, but I've dog sat and walked all sorts, from Salukis to Shiba Inus! I also have experience walking multiple dogs at a time. I also adore my feline friends, and would be delighted to meet your pet, whatever the species - I have cared for lizards and rats, too! My life is incomplete without animals in it, and I would love to spend some quality one-on-one time with your furry friend(s)! I also have passed a federal background check. PLEASE NOTE: I generally do NOT accept first-time clients on less than one week's notice, although I am more willing to be flexible on that point for cats. I am working from home for the indefinite future, so I am fairly flexible to come at whatever times suit you and your pet's schedule the best. I do not care for pets in my own home, but will take every necessary precaution when caring for your animals in their home environment.

About: I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, including puppies who require consistency, supervision, and reinforcement of basic training routines. I am also comfortable caring for senior pets who may need a slower pace, medication administration, extra patience, or special accommodations to keep them comfortable and safe. My goal is not only to meet a pet's basic needs but to make sure they feel loved, secure, and happy while their family is away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, and I'm the kind of sitter who genuinely enjoys building a bond with the pets I care for. Whether it's helping a puppy burn off energy and stay on schedule or giving a senior pet the extra patience and comfort they deserve, I tailor my care to each animal's unique needs. I'm dependable, attentive, and believe pet parents should never have to wonder how their furry family member is doing, so I provide frequent updates and photos. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and at home while you're away. ❤️🐾 Pet care fits easily into my daily life because I love animals and enjoy the companionship they bring. I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention they deserve. I understand how important routines are, so I work hard to keep pets comfortable and on their normal schedule. Whether it's an energetic puppy who needs extra activity or a senior pet who needs a little more patience and care, I'm happy to adjust my routine to meet their needs and make them feel loved and secure. 🐶🐱💕 What sets you apart from other sitters? Be sure to include any special skills like training puppies or senior care. I want to respond in the best way. If this is for a pet-sitting profile, you want to highlight reliability, communication, and any special care you provide. Here's a strong response you can personalize: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I understand that leaving a beloved pet with someone else requires trust, so I make communication a priority by providing regular updates, photos, and messages for peace of mind. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, including puppies who require consistency, supervision, and reinforcement of basic training routines.

Here's a professional yet personable response: Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they need. Whether it's morning walks, feeding schedules, playtime, administering medications, or evening check-ins, I am committed to maintaining the routine your pet is accustomed to. I understand that consistency is important for pets, so I make reliability a priority. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, which makes walks and exercise an enjoyable part of my day. Caring for pets isn't just something I do—it's something I truly enjoy, and I take pride in making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. 🐾❤️ For a more warm and personal approach: Pet care fits easily into my daily life because I love animals and enjoy the companionship they bring.

This will vary depending on which service you offer. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow the pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication needs, and bedtime routines. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's environment and the owner's instructions. I know pets are often most comfortable in familiar surroundings, so I work to maintain their routine while providing companionship, exercise, and plenty of attention. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pet is happy and well cared for. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, and welcoming environment where they receive plenty of supervision, affection, and enrichment. I make sure they have opportunities for exercise, mental stimulation, rest, and individualized attention based on their personality and needs. Every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their preferences, habits, and any special requirements so they receive personalized care and feel like part of the family while they're with me. 🐾❤️

About: 👋 I’ve had dogs and taken care of them since I was a child. I’ve owned an Airedale terrier, a pug, a Russian terrier, and my family currently has a Japanese spitz and a toy terrier. I have lots of experience - I have adopted a doggie from a shelter before, and I’ve also raised my two pups from 3 months old until they passed a few months ago at ages 14 and 16. Prior to registering on Rover I’ve boarded dogs - I looked after a friend’s pug for a week, a family friend’s elderly golden retriever, and fostered a stray my sister and I rescued from the street before someone adopted her. I’ve taken road trips with multiple pets, and flown across the country with 3 of my dogs, I’ve taken them to all sorts of vet appointments, and been with them through all stages of their lives. ♥️ I’m on this platform looking for company to heal from losing my furry friends - the pain of it shook me to my core, I loved them so much, they were my family members (you know how it is). Being around dogs brings me peace and joy. I am a performing artist and I travel a lot for concerts, so having my own pet is unfortunately not feasible at the moment, hence I decided that taking care of someone else’s furry babies while I’m home between performances is the second best thing:) You can rest assured that I’ll take great pleasure in looking after them and having them in my home. 🏡 I work from home during the day and I am home from evening until morning, too. I do however step out for errands and appointments. Your dog will be with me most of the time while staying in my home, walked 2-3 times and fed on schedule, but should be comfortable being on its own for 2-3 hours max, if I have things to do. ❗️If your pup has severe separation anxiety and is unable to be alone at all, I can accommodate that with enough notice and for 2x my normal nightly rate. 🐶 I’ve always let my dogs run free around the house and made a safe space for them where they liked, but I did crate my rescue doggie when he first arrived to slowly acclimate him to the new place. Whatever you prefer for your dog is fine by me and I’m happy to accommodate. I don’t have a yard, but I have plenty of green areas nearby where I’d walk your furry pal. I keep my dogs on leash at all times. I steer clear of other dogs by default when I’m walking your dog, so whether they’re leash reactive or not, I err on the side of caution 100% of the time. 🐕 I like training doggies and playing with them to give them some mental stimulation, but if they prefer to chill and not be bothered I’m cool with that as well ❗️I’m not looking to scale this as a business and not looking for a potentially unsafe situation, so I’m always only caring for 1 dog at a time, unless both dogs are from the same owner and are part of the same booking.

About: We are dog lovers with a large fenced-in yard. We have had many dogs over the years and know how to provide loving care and a safe space. We are a couple who works from home and are willing to share our space with furry friends. We have one dog at home: Zubi, male, almost 6 years old, a rescue and is a black lab mix approximately 82 pounds. He is great with new furry friends, loves to run around, play fetch, go on walks, and is extremely friendly. We are willing to provide overnight boarding as well as doggie daycare services. We know how very important your pets are to you and are welcome to share our space with them. We treat our pets as extensions of our family and will do the same for your pets. We both work from home so we have the flexibility to play and walk pets during the day! Pets will have access to our fenced yard to come and go during the day. We have a huge fenced-in yard and our own pets to keep your fur baby company. We do not crate our dogs but we can definitely keep them separate if need be.

Anastasiia took excellent care of my blind dog with mobility issues, who can be high maintenance at times. He was soooo relaxed and calm after spending a day with her, it was noticeable. He didn’t seem eager to leave and loved being held by her! He’s a messy eater too and normally has food bits on paws and face but he was remarkably clean and very well cared for. Definitely want her to care for him again and will be reaching out soon. Also, she’s a musician and has a loving and generous, protective attitude about dogs. She is also detail-oriented with care instructions and communications. Highly recommend, esp for blind, deaf, elderly, or sensitive dogs.

We as Valerie's owners added a complicated wrinkle -- I am traveling and have the Rover.com account, and my daughters were on the ground doing the drop off and pick up. Ana did not blink an eye over our logisitcal wrinkle. She was so easy to work with. My daughter said Ana was extremely welcoming and clearly a dog person, so Valerie was so excited to be at her place. We would definitely book with Ana again.

I have a Malinois Mix, so he is very high every not every Rover sitter has the skills to take good care of him. So, it really means a lot to me when someone seems to genuinely enjoy taking care of him, and really makes an effort to be active with him. Moises always goes above and beyond to care for my dog. He takes such good care of Sisko, and I can tell Sisko had a lot of fun with Moises + loves him. I couldn't recommend Moises more, and thanks so much!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Forest Glen

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Forest Glen on Rover is $49.95 per day (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 5,523 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Forest Glen. 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 Forest Glen 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 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 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 5,523 sitters in Forest Glen, 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.
