Russ and Andra are excellent dog sitters! They are very reliable and treat our dog like one of their own. They always send cute pictures and videos of our pup running around, playing, and relaxing. Our pup Twyla has the best time when she visits Russ and Andra!

It was so easy coordinating Milo’s meet-and-greet and first daycare day with Asia. All the great reviews are well deserved—we’d absolutely recommend her. Milo was clearly well cared for and came home happy and healthy.

Erin is the best. We get so worried leaving our dog with someone beside my husband and myself but we feel so secure with him being there. She understands dogs so well and knows how to introduce and pace them. We’re so glad we found her. Our pup had the best time there!

Ann and Rick made my dog Winnie feel right at home and took great care of her during our recent very long day first visit. I received reports and photos during the day, which I very much appreciated. Even though we had done a successful meet and great beforehand and Winnie trotted into their house with only a brief look back, they felt she was a bit nervous and adjusted her day accordingly. I look forward to future bookings.

Tricia was great ! We initially did a meet and greet to see if our doggies would get along and we went over how Milo’s daycare day would be. The day of the daycare went great, Milo went on walks and played with Lily and another corgi they were taking care of. She sent a lot of pictures and video of Milo and it was really nice see Milo having fun and relaxing with them ! Thank you Tricia !

I believe each dog is special and should be treated with kindness and compassion. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I’m available during the weekdays and weekends to help with your pups needs and care. 😊 Can’t wait to help you and your pup! 🐾 I have experience with feeding schedules, walking, and crating schedules. I love working with all dogs of all ages. I can follow owners instructions for feeding and crating. I am constantly learning about what dogs need and make it my mission to provide the proper care for them. I love building a relationship with you and your dog and working with you to see how we can make your dog happy 😊

Jen and Louis saved the day and came through for me and my chiweenie Willar when I really needed a sitter who understands my senior pup's needs. Willar has dietary restrictions and some quirks, and Jen was attentive, followed all the instructions for Willar's routine, and she asked very thoughtful questions. Additionally, her dog Louis is so welcoming and sweet. They really helped with some transitions I'm going through and were very accommodating.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and my ability to connect with them on a personal level. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages—from playful puppies who need training and structure to senior dogs who require patience, medication, and extra comfort. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every dog like family. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine are always my top priorities. I’m currently taking a break from my regular work to focus on something that brings me pure joy—spending time with dogs. This allows me to give pet care my full attention, with a flexible schedule that easily adapts to your dog’s needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m all in and loving every minute of it. Whether in my home or my client’s, I create a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet. I stick closely to their usual routine—feeding times, walks, play, and rest—so they feel secure and happy. I always keep a clean, pet-friendly space and pay attention to the little details, like favorite toys or special instructions. My goal is to make them feel like they never left home, whether they’re with me or I’m with them.

About: I had two dogs growing up (Snowball and Mocha) and in recent years, have dog sat for friends, friends, and for Rover clients. It's rewarding and super fun for me! I enjoy the long walks in my neighborhood (I live in an awesome neighborhood for that) and lots of cuddles/belly rubs with the dogs I am sitting! I work from home most of the week and have plenty of time during the day for neighborhood strolls/walks with my rover pups. I love going for walks to take a break so would take the dog out at least 3 or 4 times a day with me. My husband and I live in a 2 bedroom/2 floor condo with a balcony. The dog would have access to the first floor. We have hard wood floors, a ton of really great light and are on the 3rd floor. There are no elevators in this building. We have a ton of neighbors who have dogs, an elementary school near by with a nice track/green space, and lots of side walk space for walks.

She also truly seems to be such a dog lover and we’ve felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care. We will certainly be using her again!

Samuel was awesome! Our first Rover experience couldn't have been better. Samuel was punctual, professional, flexible, communicative, pleasant, and a really nice guy. Our dog Felix had 2 great days with Samuel and couple other family dogs there. He was happy and ready for a good night's sleep after coming home. We opted to have Samuel pick up and drop off Felix, which was a great option. I highly recommend Samuel for Rover contracting!!!!!!

This was Augie’s first time spending time away from us with strangers and Marie was very welcoming and seemed to understand dogs and Augie felt at home. Marie also had a good size enclosed yard. She communicated and responded to my texts about on how he was doing. I would use her again, if I was traveling through Washington DC.

Marley had such a great time with Hyunbang and Love!

I loved the constant updates and adorable photos throughout the day. My girl clearly had a blast! We have boarding booked with her in a few weeks, and I am relieved to know Marley will be in such good hands.

I needed to find a sitter while traveling to VA for the 4th of July - Christin is a wonderful communicator, and even without the opportunity for a meet and greet I felt very at ease about having Felix stay with her. She was very understanding and flexible with my fluctuating schedule, she and her husband were both very helpful in making Felix feel comfortable when we first arrived, and I had total confidence that he would be well cared for during his stay with her (and he was 😊)!!

They made Chance and Po feel so at home. Both the home and back yard (fully fenced in) are clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Anya was very welcoming of both of them, and somehow both Sarah and her husband made our incredibly shy dog feel comfortable enough to ask for pets, which absolutely never happens. 10/10

Paula was an exceptional rover! I had a last minute daycare request the evening prior and she accommodated for an early drop off. She gave my dog tons of exercise throughout the day which Miley loves, sent pics, and even gave fitness stats of the walks. My dog seemed content and received a take home treat when i picked her up. I recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter!

Jona was amazing with Caruso who is a very shy dog and has separation anxiety. She made him feel very comfortable within a few minutes of our arrival and he responded to her quickly. He usually backs away from strangers and hides behind me but she was able to establish a rapport with him quickly by sitting on the floor and talking to him until he became comfortable enough to let her pet him.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Franconia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Franconia on Rover is $61.05 per day (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 5,028 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Franconia. 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 Franconia 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 5,028 sitters in Franconia, 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 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.
