About: I can do anything from walking to giving baths or from filling food and water to providing medicine 🐾 I’m okay with dogs of all ages and sizes from puppies to pitbulls and from the sick to the elderly 🙂 I can work remotely so it fits in quite easily. I live in Greenbelt, MD and my office is in DC (when I do decide to go into work), so really anywhere in the suburbs I’m willing to drive to! Any special instructions will be listened to and I will take great care of your pet(s). Hopefully things work out and you can be a regular-ish client! Please note: i board 3-4 dogs at a time. If you have a larger breed dog and I’m boarding multiple dogs, I might require them to where a bark collar that just buzzes if they get aggressive. Depending on their behavior. It helps with mitigation. I have never had any accidents happen under my watch and would like to keep it that way.
“Kuma looked like he had the best time with Irma! I definitely appreciate her taking care of him on short notice for a day trip I had planned. She sent updates of Kuma throughout the day. I would definitely recommend and revisit!”
About: I am an animal lover and have had various types of animal companions throughout my lifetime. Currently I am the Farm operator for our Urban farm. We raise ducks and chickens but they are always separate from visiting pups. Only within view for their entertainment and relaxation here on the farm. Yes we are located nearby in the city 🥰 I have a quiet understanding with most animals that I come across and enjoy their company. I have sat for many of my friends and family and am the go to person when someone needs to go out and about but cannot take their pet family members. I am currently focusing on dog sitting and have dedicate my time to being available to meet as many fur babies as I can in the next couple months. I have a room dedicated to pet care which has a greenhouse feel with plants but is fully enclosed in the home. It has a doggy door which leads out to our fully fenced back yard and large dog run with a insulated dog house inside. I also have a wireless camera on the areas which allow me to make sure that everyone is ok at all times. Please note that I no longer accept large breed dogs at this time aside from past clients. I am currently focusing my time on pet sitting. I am always also checking in via webcam on the pups wherever I am. Dog personalities are so amazing and fun to see. I have a double fenced yard to keep your pets safe. Lots of open dog crates and bedding for snoozing. A dog door that allows them some freedom and a large dedicated outdoor dog area for doggie playtime. They also always have access to fresh cool water.
“Julie took good care of my timid pup Sophie. She sent some pics during the day, and Sophie seemed happy and comfortable when I picked her up. Julie is also very easy to communicate with - a plus. I'll be using her again to care for Sophie.”
“I'm really grateful that I found Jeremy through Rover so my son and I could go visit Timpanogos cave! Her puppy and my puppy got to play and mine was tired after, which was nice too.”
“Catie was great with my pup Ruby! Ruby has some extra triggers, and Catie not only was great with making sure Ruby did okay and figuring out what Ruby needed alongside the other dogs in care that day, but also provided frequent updates throughout the day. 5/5!”
About: **IMPORTANT ** Summer schedule active now. This means more couch snuggles and max TLC! Hello there! I’ve been a sitter for the past 6 years. I’ve mostly worked with small-médium sized dogs. I know with busy schedules a little more help is a big help! I’m here to support you and your furry loved one during these moments. Heading out of town for the weekend? I can help😊. My home is smoke free and safe for your furry friend. If they are more comfortable at home I can come to you also. **IMPORTANT - If you were a previous client of mine and need to book please text me even if you do not see any availability. ** My pet sitting rover schedule will be part time. I am available usually during the weekday evenings and some weekends for extended stays, or walks as needed. I do not work from home and will only be able to give potty breaks 6-8 hrs. I have an open space grass community area for walking and a smoke free home. I do not have any additional pets in my home. If I’m working from your home I will respect and adhere to your rules for your home.
“Jeff was wonderful! He was very confident with our young dogs, sent a midday update, and the pictures showed that our pups had a blast in his backyard. We are so grateful for his care and hospitality.”
About: I had a dog for four and half years but sadly he passed away in March at a very young age. I used to love taking my dog for a long walk around the neighborhood. I know all the potty training and how to feed them. I’m a first time mom so I stay home during the week. On the weekends like Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays I work. I would definitely do it during the weekdays I have a big gate in the backyard. There’s another dog in the house but he’s mostly in the basement. I used to take my old dog in the front very trained up.
“Yosef is FANTASTIC! He took my request (desperate plea) to sit my pup in the final hour and I couldn’t be happier! Batman was mad at ME to leave and fell asleep as soon as we got in the car. I know he had a great time with Yosef and Law and we’re both looking forward to his next visit.”
About: Hello! I've had dogs all my life and worked as part of a rescue group for part of that time. I love dogs and have a lot of experience taking care of them. I can take them for walks, give them lots of attention and if they take any medication, I have experience with that as well. I'm good with any size dog since I've had a lot of different ones from Cocker Spaniels to Irish Wolfhounds. I don't have any "official" recommendations but I have pet sitted for friends of my family a time or two. I'm also good with multiple dogs, having grown up around 6-12 in my house at any given time, along with multiple cats. I would love to be able to pet sit for you! I currently work from home, so I am able to be flexible when it comes to taking care of your furry family members, rain or shine! I can do doggy daycare in my house if your furry friend gets along with mine, but also more than happy to take care of your pets in your home, whether taking them out for a walk, feeding them, or letting them out into the yard.
About: I've been a dog lover since childhood and a dog owner for over 10 years. As a kid, I begged for a dog every birthday and Christmas, but never got one. I promised myself that when I was older, I’d get a dog—and that’s exactly what I did! For the past 10 years, I’ve had my own dog, training and caring for him since he was 8 weeks old. Through caring for my dog and others, I’ve learned how important it is to have a reliable, patient, and loving dog-sitter. I also understand the convenience and accessibility Rover provides, as finding the right boarding facility or dog-sitter can often be difficult and expensive. With over 10 years of experience in sitting, walking, and boarding, I offer a loving, dependable service for dogs—big or small, young or old. Rest assured your dog will be in great hands with me! I work full time 8:30- 4:30. I am 100% remote and have a very flexible schedule. I am open to weekday, weekend and overnight care. I have a 10 year old cockapoo with the energy of a 2 year old! He is just as playful as he is chill; just depends on if balls are around to fetch! He is very easy going and gets along well with younger and older dogs. I have 3 story townhome with a fenced backyard. I have mostly wood floors and carpet in bed rooms. I have enough space to for crates, playpens or whatever set up you prefer for your pup.
“I had a great experience using Steven for doggy day care for my dog Fuzzy! Steven and his fiance and their sweet dog Roshe were all so nice and welcoming. Communication was great. I will definitely use them again!”

“Our pup Bella had a great time with Pamela during doggy day care. My wife and I appreciated Pamela taking such good care of her while we were at work, and we loved the photo updates she sent!”
“Thank you for taking care of our baby! Nicole was great - patient with Ethel, who was a little anxious. If we are ever looking for a sitter near DC again, we will absolutely reach out again!”
“Tabatha took absolutely amazing care of our timid dog Beetle. It was Beetle’s first time coming for daycare and, though Beetle was nervous, Tabatha did a great job building a relationship at Beetle’s pace. She was patient and caring with Beetle and provided us lots of photos and updates detailing Beetle’s day and mood. Would 100% recommend!!”

Crystal was super accommodating, letting me book out Christmas Day just a few days in advance. She was so thorough, from the initial Zoom interview questions to sending pics and updates periodically during my dog’s stay. I felt 100% confidence that all his needs would be met. Highly recommended this sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in New Carrollton on Rover is $33.3 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 New Carrollton 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.

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.
