About: Hey there! Just call me Gio—everyone does. Growing up in a home with multiple dogs and animals, caring for pets is a lifelong passion that has never stopped. Today, my home is still filled with my own beloved dogs and pets, and pet sitting is my full-time job. Because I work from home your dog will enter a well-socialized, animal-friendly environment and receive attentive, round-the-clock care. Your pup will rarely be alone. Through my current pack, extensive rescue & foster work, and lifetime of pet ownership, I’ve experienced it all. I am entirely comfortable and experienced with every stage of life. From Puppy Energy to Senior Serenity. I am fully confident in administering oral medications and managing specific care routines. More than anything, my goal is to make your dog feel completely safe, happy, and loved while you are away. I treat every guest with the exact same dedication, patience, and warmth that I give to my own pets. Dog boarding is my full-time job, so your dog will rarely be left alone. I'm home throughout the day caring for the dogs in my care, which means they'll have plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. My schedule is built around providing a safe, comfortable environment, so your pup will be treated like part of the family during their stay. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I provide a loving, structured home environment where every dog is treated like a member of the family. I have a large, fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise, and my own friendly, well-socialized dogs love meeting new friends. Since dog boarding is my full-time job, your pup won't be left alone for long periods. They'll spend their days with me in the home, enjoying plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, and affection. To ensure a safe, happy, and stress-free environment for everyone, my home is exclusively open to dogs that are both child-friendly and dog-friendly. I am unable to accept dogs with a history of aggression, resource guarding, or reactivity toward children or other dogs. Thank you for understanding that the safety and well-being of my family and all the pets in my care is always my top priority! To help everyone have a safe and restful night, I typically kennel dogs at bedtime. This routine helps prevent overnight accidents or conflicts and ensures everyone gets a good night's sleep. That said, I know every dog is unique. If your dog isn't comfortable in a kennel, just let me know before their stay, and I'll do my best to accommodate their individual needs while keeping all pets safe. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your dog is in a safe, caring, and experienced home while you're away.
“Our girl was worn out but would wag her tail every time I said Peanut’s name (her new dog buddy!) Laura was super sweet, quick to respond and has furry friends for my girl to play with! I’d happily recommend her and will most definitely use Laura again (soon!)”
“Luna had a great time playing at Sarah's. I really enjoyed reading the notes at the end of each day where Sarah told me about all the fun things that Luna got to do and new friends she was making. Will definitely book again.”
“Dejé a Valentino de 6 meses por primera vez con Rosa por tres dias y Ella supo darle todo el amor y cariño para que se sintiera bien, incluso tuvo que dar de comer con su mano para que no dejara de alimentarse. Nos enviaba fotos y videos y estuvimos viendo como se comportaba, definitivamente lo volveré a dejar cuando lo necesite, y si quieres dejar tu mascota en buenas manos, déjalo con Rosa”
“Namita sets my worries to rest by providing information on playtime, food and sleeping habits throughout the day! Pictures are also sent throughout the day and she is easily reachable should I need to ask or provide additional information.”
“Kaitlynn was a fantastic dog daycare sitter! Her family, including her sweet kids, were so gentle and attentive with my dog — even doing story time and really catering to her needs. Kaitlynn communicated wonderfully throughout the day and was very easy to work with. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
About: Me and my sister live in a house with a fenced in yard and doggy daycare space in the back. We prioritize being home as much as possible when boarding and aim for outdoors breaks every 2-3 hours. Our specialty is puppies, working dogs and dogs that could use a highly active day, but we love a good movie night and cuddles too! Currently I am a work-from-home and there is an adult present all 24 hours in the single family residence house daily. I share a house with my sister and there are no children or pets in the house. We are available to take care of your pups daily while you're at work or for short term / long term boarding ! I pride myself on creating a trusting relationship with everyone I board for. One aspect I offer is frequent pictures and messages on how the my time with pet is. I build in safety and trust by keeping you updated as much as you’d like with daily pictures and outdoors playtime every 4 hours !
About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of various temperaments, including large and high-energy breeds. I’m comfortable with nail trimming, light grooming, basic puppy training, and administering medications as directed. My goal is to provide structured, attentive, and reliable care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. My schedule is very flexible, so I’m home almost all day and able to give your pup lots of attention and care. I’m available for boarding any day of the week. I occasionally run short errands during the week, but pets are never left unattended for long periods and safety is always my priority. I have a fully fenced yard and I DO NOT have any dogs of my own. The dogs I care for are welcome to roam freely indoors and enjoy supervised time outside, so they are not cooped up inside all day. The only pet in my home is a lovebird who remains securely housed and separated from guest pets.
About: I’ve had a variety of pets from dogs to chameleons to hedgehogs. I would love to care for your pets on my free time and treat them as my own! I am a full-time stay at home mom so I am completely free to attend to your fur baby at all hours of the day. I will be sure to treat every pet as my own and care for them with the same standards you, the owner, cares for them.
“Hip hip hooray! 5 stars all around! That's all I can say. Stephanie came to the rescue at short notice. I was in need for Doggy daycare and she responded quickly and she was a MAJOR blessing. She is super sweet and she sent pictures at the end of each day and she takes the best pictures of your fur baby. My baby thoroughly enjoyed being in her care. I will be a repeat customer in the future. Thank you Stephanie!”
“It really works well having Kelly watch my uber hyper dog. He has a dog friend that goes to daycare each week with Kelly now and they have a blast together. She tells me which days they're going there to let me know which week would my dog would have the most fun. It's this kind of attention to detail that I believe is a pretty rare commodity in this industry. It would be really easy for her to not care and just say " he had a great time" everyday he was there, but she watches them and intentionally puts them in environments that they enjoy. ”
“Maria did an amazing job taking care of my puppy. We needed a short notice sitter and not only was she available, but he was super happy at the end of his time with her. Thank you, Maria!”
About: I've had pets since the age of 8. I currently have a pet cat Turbo and he's by little best friend. I also worked at a pet resort with my friends last school semester; it was entraining and a joy every day spent with so many loving and energetic animals! I just graduated high school and summer is right around the corner, so I have all of the time in the world to spend having fun with pups and every other animal :) For my cat Turbo I treat him as I would want a little best friend to be treated! I also care for my family's animals and I respect all of the specific lists and instructions given to care for them. I also want the pet owner and especially the pet to be treated well.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,669 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Lynchburg. 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 Lynchburg 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 TX 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 1,669 sitters in Lynchburg, 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.
