“I recommend Loreen to anyone who is looking for a pet sitter! She made my dog extremely comfortable and was able to accommodate to our last minute time changes. I will definitely be asking her to take care of Tofu the next time I’m out of town!”
“We used Byamba's dog sitting services for our English Bull Terrier this weekend. Our dog, Blanca, had a wonderful time at his house while we were out to brunch with our friends. He took such great care of her in the few hours we left her with him. They went on a walk and played in the backyard! Even though she was only there for a few hours, we received multiple photos. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Blanca for us today, Byamba!!!”
About: As a child, I grew up in a household with multiple dogs around at all times. I have cared for and trained dogs of all sizes. My fiance and I would love to be around more dogs as we aren’t able to have one of our own yet! We only have experience with dogs at this time but we welcome cats as well! My boyfriend and I work from home during the week and are generally available to care on Friday and the weekend! We don’t have children so our schedules are very flexible. We are very attentive, affectionate, and responsive to the needs of our pets. We make sure to go on frequent walks and adventures around the park to remain an active and fun place for pets!
“Rebeca is the best! Our nervous dog adored her and had so much fun. Rebeca took such good care of her, she came home happy and tired, they must have played with every toy and run outside!”
“Alexandra was great with Mimi! She took her in on very short notice and was super quick to respond. Communication was great, and she sent lots of pictures and detailed updates throughout the day. She also took Mimi on a nice long walk, and Mimi seemed very happy and well cared for. Would definitely recommend Alexandra and would happily book with her again!”
About: I’ve cared for many of my own dogs & dogs of friends, gf’s, etc. since the late 1980s. I’m a long time dog owner and dog lover, who is also a professional and former small business owner - who is mature, responsible, and serious. On the professional side, I have a combination of organizational/business management and basic sales/marketing & customer service training. I own a single family home with a large yard. My “main job” is in tech and I work from home nearly every day. I’m minutes away from a large park as well. The pets (and people) under my care receive a lot of loving attention in a safe, higher end neighborhood. I have a fenced yard backing up to a very serene, wooded/natural setting with tons of trees. If needed, my home has specific crates/cages and multiple rooms, depending on what the circumstances require. However, usually most pets are allowed to roam freely throughout most of the house and yard, as long as they do not conflict with or disrupt others.
“Michael took great care of my boy! Lots of play and attention; he came home tired out in the best way. Even gave him a brushing! He was also willing to be flexible with my uncertain timing, which was much appreciated. I would book with him again, no question.”
“Daisy enjoyed her 5-hour stay with Rae yesterday. They went for two walks together, which Daisy loved. Rae was very conscientious and asked questions to be sure that Daisy would be comfortable and happy during her stay. I recommend Rae if you are looking for a responsible, caring pet sitter!”
“Lina looked after my 3 dogs over 2 daycare stays to prep for an upcoming longer boarding stay and did a great job taking care of the dogs, following care instructions (one of my dogs needed extra care/attention), and providing updates.”
“Jesper and his wife took excellent care of my maltipoo! They were very friendly, attentive, and took the time to understand my dog’s needs and quirks. I especially appreciated their patience as my dog settled into their home. And their pup Brownie is so sweet and adorable!”
“Isabella was fantastic with Molly! You could tell she genuinely cared and Molly had such a great time playing with her dog Luffy. Thank you for taking great care of Molly and making this an easy experience!”
“Shuli was very competent with the whole process. I got videos and pictures of Leo every few hours and he looked happy and content when I picked him up. I will definitely be using Shuli again.”
“Matias took such good care of my pup. He communicated very well, sending photos, and played with Carter. Matias is kind and gentle and has a lot of experience caring for dogs. I highly recommend him and will rebook with him.”
“Our dog loves going to Shizuka's house! She was flexible with a last minute daycare booking. She sent pictures and videos, and we knew our dog was in good hands. The fenced in yard and walkable neighborhood is perfect.”
About: I've pet sit for my friends dogs and have raised a corgi puppy from 10 weeks old! I love dogs and will treat yours like mine. I have a playful and friendly corgi who plays well with all dogs. Plus I give excellent scratches. I will send a bunch of photos, as long as you don’t mind me spamming you with them! We do at least 3 walks a day, dog parks after work, and fun adventures on the weekends. Normally we eat breakfast around 8:30, go for a potty walk, and play. During the weekday, I take them out every 4 hours and do mental puzzles at home. If the weather is nice, we will go to a nearby dog park. On weekends, we tend to go out for outdoor adventures if the weather is nice I live in an apartment with ample walking nearby. Super dog friendly neighborhood. We have space to set up crates if needed. I am a neat person and will clean up after myself and the dogs. Since I live in an apartment, if your dog is reactive to noise outside the door, I recommend making that a consideration
About: I’ve had and cared for pets since I was a little girl, and I truly believe they are part of the family. They deserve all the love, kindness, patience, and respect we can give them. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same love and care I would give my own. ❤️ Thank you so much for trusting me with your precious companion! I can’t wait to meet them and make them feel safe, happy, and loved I’m currently a full-time mom, so I spend most of my time at home taking care of my family. This means your furry friend will have plenty of company, attention, and love throughout the day! ❤️🐾 I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and right at home while you’re away. My home has a fenced-in backyard with plenty of space for your furry friend to run, play, and enjoy some fresh air safely. 🐾❤️ Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety, health, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I’ll make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for every step of the way!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Glen Echo
Jie is absolutely incredible. My super anxious 11 mo puppy loved her. She is usually frantic, barking like crazy, and trying to run away from the sitter when I get there for pickup but not when Jie! She is settled, happy, tired, and not anxious at all. She has only done 2 days with Jie but from day 1 she was confident at drop off and confident at pickup. It’s like magic haha. My 4 year old social butterfly of a dog also LOVES going to Jie’s. There are a few day campers that are usually there and they are super friendly nice dogs. Jie also just has the best attitude about handling dogs and appreciates their energy. My older dog jumped and opened a door in the house and instead of being upset Jie was like he’s so athletic! She also has a great house for dogs with a big secure backyard. I could not possibly give her a higher rating.
We had a wonderful experience with Sasha. From her updates I could tell Teddy was truly enjoying his time away from home and felt like part of the family. She took such great care of him and it was clear he was loved and spoiled during his stay. She even sent Teddy home with so many toys, which was such a thoughtful surprise! We’re so grateful for the care she gave him and would absolutely trust her with Teddy 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 - Glen Echo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Glen Echo is $39 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $67 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,352 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Glen Echo. 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 Glen Echo 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 5,352 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MD. 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 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 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.

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.
