Garrett, Ana and their children were wonderful with Piper. They treated Piper like a member of their family. I would definitely recommend and call on them again.

Jordyn was great - very flexible with timing which was a huge help since we were on the road and weren't sure exactly when we would get there. Zeke had a really great time with her - sad for him since it was only for one night! We will definitely be contacting Jordyn again in the future when we come to the area again!

First daycare experience with Emmanuel and my puppy had a time. Nori was in the company of other dogs which she loves. Lots of space inside and out to run and play. She was returned to me good and tired. We are looking forward to our boarding stay.

About: Hello I'm a fellow dog owner. My Charlie is a 30 pound sheltie mix and gets along with everyone. He's super friendly so he'll get along with your dog. I work from home two days out of the week and I'm available on weekends for doggy daycare where they'll play in the backyard, get walks, I'll make sure they eat, and get enough water. I can do over night any day of the week as well. The days I work from home are Tuesdays and Fridays. If you have questions please feel free to ask. I'm very accommodating but obviously I do have concerns. I have two crates and two beds on my own they can used so you don't have to bring your own.

About: I owned a dog for most of my life. My dog sadly passed away after fifteen great years of happiness! I watch my friend's dogs when they go out of town because I'm usually always reliable and do most of my work inside my home. I am not lazy with taking dogs on walks and I care for pets like they are my own :) I am a stay at home mom to a 2 year old so I am always home to care for your loved one. We have a fenced backyard and lots of areas to walk. I can be flexible about what your pet needs. If you would prefer them in a crate at night I’d be happy to do that but usually I love having your pets roam around my townhouse and our fenced yard!

About: I have had animals in my care my entire life, including dogs, cats, rabbits, turtles, and birds. Caring for animals is something that comes naturally to me because I truly love them and treat them as part of the family. All the pets I’ve cared for have been happy, well-loved, and safe. I am patient, attentive, and responsible, and I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding routines, or simply giving them affection and comfort, I always make sure they feel secure and cared for. Your pet will be treated with kindness, respect, and lots of love. I maintain a flexible and organized schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to each pet in my care. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, ensuring consistency with feeding times, walks, exercise, and rest. I am reliable, punctual, and committed to following each pet’s specific routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide a safe, calm, and structured environment for every pet. I am located near a large field and a park, which allows me to offer regular walks, outdoor exercise, and stimulating activities in a safe setting. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and special care requirements. I am attentive to pets’ behavior and always prioritize their safety and well-being during walks and playtime.

Katie is a stellar sitter and her youngsters and pup are all absolutely adorable! Katie was very attentive to my pup, Major, and very communicative with me. Major seemed surprisingly at ease exploring their house when he first arrived, and by Day 2, dropoff was already a breeze. I greatly appreciate Katie's flexibility with drop-off and pickup times, and I LOVED the card she left for us in Major's backpack - what a delightful touch! The neighborhood is of course exceptionally safe, which is always reassuring when leaving even fur babies with someone new all day.

About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for dogs, including my own pets, family pets, and helping care for SPCA animals for about a year. I understand the importance of patience, supervision, routines, and making dogs feel safe and comfortable. Since I offer dog daycare in my home, I focus on providing a calm, caring environment with attention, playtime, potty breaks, fresh water, and following any care instructions to keep your pup happy throughout the day. I work full-time in tech, but I have flexibility in my schedule for pet care, especially aelect weekdays. I’m active and enjoy walks, outdoor time, and staying on a routine, so I’m comfortable providing walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and making sure pets stay comfortable and cared for. I understand how important trust and consistency are when caring for pets. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any instructions provided to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I’ll make sure your pet gets attention, exercise, fresh water, and care.

Perfect doggie daycare. Nicole and her team of family and dogs made sure my dog was well taken care of. Humans for my dogs' need for human interaction and affection and also dog interaction as she loves making friends. All these combined to make a great stay for my dog. When I got her home all she wanted to do was sleep which was perfect! Nicole is a very warm, and friendly woman who certainly cares about your pet. I would have no hesitation to book Nicole again if needed. Oh yea the treats she gives are home-made just for your dog which was over and beyond what I expected. I feel like if my dog had to choose between me and Nicole, Nicole would win hands down as I noticed when I drive up to Nicole's house my dog jets out to her door and when she opens immediately runs into the house haha A++ stay.

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 - Mount Vernon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Mount Vernon on Rover is $32.19 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 4,919 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Mount Vernon. 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 Mount Vernon 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 4,919 sitters in Mount Vernon, 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.
