“Morgan is amazing ! I’m in the process of selling my home and had a pre-planned event prior to scheduling my open house. Morgan came to pick up my boys they had a blast and he dropped them home after the open house was over! Morgan is a great communicator and it’s evident that he loves dogs and they love him!”
“We were visiting from out of town for our sons wedding and needed a last minute sitter. Thankfully we found Megan! Olive had a great time with Megan. She was a happy and worn out pup by the time we picked her up.”
“This was my first booking with Seyla. I must admit my anxiety level was through the roof. Darla is very active, stubborn and has not been around other dogs. My anxiety melted away after receiving videos and pictures of Darla on several hikes socializing and running with the other dogs. This was an awesome experience for both of us. I already booked her next adventure with Seyla 🐕🙌🏽”
About: I offer a premium boarding experience because I believe every dog deserves to be treated like family, not inventory. I strictly limit my capacity to one or two dogs to ensure they get the attention and peace of mind they need. My home is a real home, not a kennel. I currently care for Violet, a Belgian Malinois service dog, and Scarlet, a Maine Coon kitten. My experience goes far beyond that, too. My journey has taken me from volunteering with A Forever Home Dog Rescue to a wildlife rescue in Virginia, and now to raising neonatal kittens from just a few hours old. I have a unique skill set for managing a wide range of animals—from fragile newborns to high-energy working dogs—in a calm, household setting. While you might find cheaper options elsewhere ($30–$40/day), those often involve high-volume, kennel-style setups with multiple dogs in separate rooms. My $60/day rate reflects the exclusive, one-on-one care and quiet environment you get here. You aren't paying for a bed in a facility; you're paying for a home where your dog is an honored guest. Pet Care is Family Life, Not a Job My home operates on a calm, consistent routine designed to make every guest feel safe and settled. As a remote worker with a quiet home, I am present and available throughout the day. Morning: We start with a gentle wake-up, a potty break, and breakfast. Daytime: While I work, your pet is right beside me—a quiet companion in a comfy dog bed or in a safe play area. I check in frequently for water, a quick snack, or a cuddle. Afternoon: We have dedicated time for one-on-one play, mental stimulation, or a relaxing walk (weather permitting). Evening: We wind down together, often with quiet time before bed. Because I host only one or two guests, this routine is tailored to your pet's needs, not a generic schedule for a group. There are no crowded kennel hours or constant noise; just a steady, loving presence. My home is a safe, controlled environment where safety is my top priority. Because I treat every pet as family, I maintain strict protocols to ensure their well-being. Supervision: I am home full-time and provide constant supervision. There is no "cage time" or unsupervised roaming. Secure Environment: My home is pet-proofed. I do not leave pets unattended in crates for long periods; they are integrated into family life. Emergency Preparedness: I have an SUV ready for immediate transport to the vet. I carry a fully stocked pet first-aid kit and have a clear emergency action plan for every guest. Background Checks: I have passed a basic background check and maintain a 100% response rate, ensuring reliability and trust. I also maintain an active government clearance. Health & Hygiene: I follow strict cleaning protocols, especially given my experience with neonatal kittens (who are highly susceptible to illness). I isolate new guests if needed and monitor health closely.
“Everything went well Erica was always ready for my to drop off Cosmo despite it typically be very early. Cosmo can be kind of a dirty dog, but she kept him clean and well taken care of. She updated me on how he was doing and sent pictures.”
“This was a great day for my baby! This was her first day away from after not even having her a week. I really appreciated the pictures and messages when I was at work. Made me feel more at ease.”
“Larissa is SUPER responsive and our dear puppy absolutely adores hanging out with her and her pups! You can always tell he has a WONDERFUL time because he comes home worn out! We are soooo happy that we found Larissa!”
“Aiden and her wonderful family have been fantastic sitters! BELLA is usually very skittish about new places but she has been very excited to go to doggy day care. Highly recommended!”
“I feel good knowing Rocky is safe with Eldeen & her family. This is his second time going to doggy daycare at Eldeen’s house & he was tugging to go into the house once we arrived. I will definitely continue booking Eldeen for daycare & would recommend her.”
“Tiffany was an absolute delight to book with!! From the very beginning, she was very prompt in her responses and answered any questions that I had. I am a newer dog mom, so she put me at ease due to her kindness and professionalism. She was very flexible with drop-off/pickup times, which I know can be tough for most. That was a huge plus! She also communicated throughout the day with updates and cute photos of my fur baby so I knew he was safe and well taken care of. If I could, I would give her 10/5 stars! I definitely plan to book with her again in the near future! Thanks again Tiffany!”
“Connie was amazing with Thor! Besides being available last minute, she went above and beyond. She has a super warm personality and made Thor feel at ease right away. He was so happy to run around in her yard. She even packed some homemade treats for him to take home! She was just fantastic and I highly recommend. We will absolutely reach out again when we need help with our pup.”
“Audree is amazing!! The second my dog sees Audree, he’s running out of the car in excitement. Seeing his reaction always calms me down because I know he’s being taken care of, and loved just as we would at home :) she’s super flexible and sends pictures/videos throughout his stay. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
About: I have a puppy of my own named Nylah. Nylah is 2 months old and full of energy. I have two children and they are 7 years old and 11 years old. We also have a cat named Rocky. He is 3 years old. I am available every weekend for boarding or to pet sit. I can also do boarding during the week. I have over 20 years of pet care experience. I am a very caring and loving person with lots of patience!!! I will treat your pet like family just like I do my own. I am very good with all breed types. Please contact me for any boarding or pet sitting services you may need for your pet. Thank you for considering me!
“Ms. Connie and family are amazing! Definitely recommend! She works with you, very communicates every step of the way. She takes lovely photos, and is our repeat go-to dog sitter, HUGE THX CONNIE!!!!”
“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.”
“Linda and family took great care of Layla. She stresses easily in her old age but not at all stressed with them. They communicated with me several times during her stay and even sent pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Laurie was great. It was my first time leaving my dog with someone that my dogs didn’t know, and I was so worried, but Laurie sent me pictures and videos that they were playing and enjoying each other and Laurie’s dog got a perfect long with both my dogs.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 2,988 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Nanjemoy. 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 Nanjemoy 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 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 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 2,988 sitters in Nanjemoy, 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.
