“Our dear Pup ALWAYS has a good time hanging out with Larissa! When he knows that we’re pulling up to her house, he starts to get SUPER excited which makes us feel good❤️! She is truly a godsend!!”
“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.”
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.
“Svetlana took great care of our 2 dogs on a last minute notice for the day. She is so kind, and good with the dogs. Her house is clean and tidy (1 of my dogs likes to chew everything), and she has a nice large fenced in yard for the dogs to run around in. I highly recommend her, and will definitely book with her again. Thank you so much!!”
“Lindsey was SO great with Teddy. Teddy came home tired and happy! The pictures she sent to us were adorable and showed how much fun he had. Lindsey was very communicative and easy to work with.”
“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!!”
About: Dogs and cats are my babies. There is nothing I love more than to have them follow me around the house. I am willing to host cats and small dogs in my home. I am also willing to do drop in visits with medium sized dogs. I am able to provide basic care for pets, including feeding, walking, and waste pickup. I love to keep pets company, so I would be a good fit for a dog or cat with separation anxiety. I am at home full time, so I am able to give care and attention to your pets throughout the day and overnight if needed. My yard does not have a fence, so the dogs can only go out for leash walks. Please let me know whether your pet gets along with other dogs and cats. I will keep you informed about any other animals that will be in my home to make sure your pet is in a safe environment.
“Laurie was very good with my dog and very knowledgeable and accommodating. I felt that she provided very good care and that my dog was in good hands. Her fenced in backyard has plenty of shade and is great for breeds that like to be outside and roam. I recommend her for taking care of your dog.”
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: From cats and dogs to cattle and kangaroos, I've worked with hundreds of different animals. When it comes to our fur babies, I have trained and shown dogs for 9 years, whilst working in veterinary settings with my family since I was 8. Older dogs and puppies require extra care, and I am totally able to keep close to your pets to help them out. I currently have a remote job, so I can do my work while house sitting to make things easier. If anything ever came up, you would be the first to know - well in advance. I'm extremely flexible with my schedule and routines for dog walking at any hour of the day (or night). If it's dog sitting at your home, I'll likely stay the night unless that's something you aren't comfortable with. And to cover my end of things, I ask for an in-person meet and greet so I can let the pets get to know me before hanging out with them while you're away. This is also to go over questions, feeding, bathroom / walking routines, and more.
About: I was a kennel assistant at a German Shepard facility for a year, my duties included grooming, playing with, exercising, giving shots and feeding the dogs. for the past five years I have dog sat/walked for neighbors, friends and families with dogs of all breeds/sizes/temperaments. I also have experience with all different ages of dogs from puppies to senior. I also worked at a vet hospital for a little over a year before I had to move back to Fairfax. I am currently working part time so I have a ton of free time to take care of any of your pet needs! I am free on weekends and during the week for repeated check ins or one time visits. Holidays are also no problem either! I have a warm welcoming environment with comfortable blankets and pillow and dog toys for your pet. At a clients home I will use whatever the pet has in the home like toys and blankets to make them feel comfortable and happy.
About: Unfortunately, working and moving a lot. I cannot give the best life to my dog and cat anymore. I had to leave them with my brother but I would love to give some support to pet owners who are busy due to work and life. Monday to Friday after 6 pm. Weekends and holidays all day long. I love going for walks, feed them, or I have them over the weekend. I would love to give a house and take care of pets in my apartment. I live by myself, but I work a 9-5 job.
About: I grew up in a house full of animals (dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, fish) and loved it. Less than a year after moving out to attend college I got my own puppy (Havanese). 12 years later I found myself getting a second dog after my parents and a sibling adopted her other 2 sisters (English Cream Golden Retriever puppies). We dogsit for them, and of course they come to family get-togethers, so we're used to having extra dogs in our house! In 2025 we said goodbye to our first dog, and a few months later welcomed home our foster-to-adopt puppy (chihuahua-beagle mix). The kids love playing and cuddling with dogs and understand when they need space. My job allows flexibility in my schedule to work from home when needed. I usually work early hours so that I can have more time available in the afternoons & evenings to spend with family. Caring for pets and considering their feeding/potty breaks is already part of our daily routine. Having my own home, family, and pets I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy and respectful to take care of your pets. Your pet will be treated as one of our own.
About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 5 years old. Friends and Family have always told me I should start working with dogs a lot more. So I am starting this and one day willing to have my own business working with dogs. All I do is take care of dogs! I have a very open schedule. Monday-Friday 8AM-6:30PM Saturdays 11:30AM-8PM Sundays 9AM-7:30PM If I an in your home I will treat the pup and home as my own. I will do my very best to make sure everyone is comfortable. I will send pictures and updates as often as you would like! It is import to me that you trust me not only with your fur baby but in your home as well!
About: Good day I am a military wife that has been helping other families with their pets in time of need. I hate to have to board my pets in a place where no one is there to play with them and spoil them. So I offer a experience that your family would love a great fun family experience with your pets and get spoiled as they are being watched. I will never mistreat your babies. I have been an animal lover since I was a kid. I myself have seven pets and spoil each and everyone of them the same way. I would love to have the opportunity to help you out. Please feel feel to contact me to help with your furry friends. Thank you I job is currently making this my full time job. As a past military wife I know how important it is to have great care for your furry children. As far as for how I do things with pets. I like to keep everything the same as if the owners were there. Pets are like children they like consistency. I will give your pets the top notch care that your want them to have

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Graves Corner
Today was my puppy, Beau's first day with Larissa, and Beau had a great time. He adapted to his new environment very well and played with the other dogs at Larissa's home. Larissa did a great job taking care of Beau. She sent me pictures of Beau during the day and kept me updated with his activities. Larissa maintained communication with me about Beau's adjustment to his first day which went very well. Beau will be visiting Larissa again soon. Thank you, Larissa.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Graves Corner
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 672 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Graves 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 Graves 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 672 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 672 sitters in Graves Corner, 83% 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.
