“Phil and Amanda are amazing. Our two pugs can be skittish around other dogs and Phil and Amanda paired them with the perfect duo to help them get more comfortable. They took them on numerous walks and even let them snuggle in bed on an early morning drop off. I can’t recommend them more and I’ll use them again when we come to town.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since 2000 and cats since I was 8. From kitten, puppies to senior dogs and cats, I love them all. I will care for your pet like they were my own. I currently work from home everyday. I can walk dogs before work, pet sit all day, or watch them in the evening or overnight. I am available for long stays as well. I have no pets at this time so your pet can be comfortable and roam around freely. I can feed, play with and give lots of attention.

“We could not be happier with the care Todd provides for our standard poodle, Milo. Leaving your dog with someone always requires trust, but the best review of Todd came directly from Milo himself. Seeing Milo’s pure excitement around Todd at pickup told us everything we needed to know—he genuinely loves spending time there and feels completely at home. Todd truly exceeded our expectations on every front. His communication was outstanding throughout the day, sending frequent updates paired with great photos that gave us complete peace of mind. Best of all, Milo came home happy, relaxed, and wonderfully tired from a full day of play. If you are looking for someone attentive, reliable, and deeply caring for your dog, Todd is exceptional. We cannot recommend him highly enough!”
“Susana was awesome. She is the first sitter I have used with Rover. She made me feel like my puppy was in safe hands when I dropped her off. Marcy Marie had a little upset tummy that we needed to deal with and Susana took great care of her. I would recommend her without hesitation. Thank you Susana for taking great care of Marcy Marie!!!”
“Cheryl was very kind and gracious with my beagle, Milton. She is conveniently located within the downtown Leesburg area and has a perfect yard for letting your dog out throughout a daycare visit. Milton seemed to enjoy his stay and I'll absolutely book again when I need someone to watch him while I'm in the area. Thank you!!”
“Susan was so loving and sweet with my Rosie! She has plenty of walks and she went out of her way to make sure Rosie ate her food. I will absolutely have her watch my dog again in the future and recommend her.”
“We are so lucky to have found Kiran! He is very responsive, flexible, and kind. You can tell he really cares about the dogs he watches. Mabel loved her time with him and we appreciated the pic/video updates. Mabel is already excited for her next visit!”
“Caden is an incredible sitter. He kept me updated throughout the day with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My puppy started off shy, and Caden knew exactly how to support him — even hand‑feeding him to make sure he ate despite being nervous. His home is welcoming, and his mom is just as sweet and attentive with the dogs. I highly recommend him and will definitely book again. 10/10.”

“Yuhui took great care of Miso, played with her, and gave Miso a lot of attention. She gave us a detailed report on what Miso did during her time there and took her out on multiple walks. Miso enjoyed spending her time there.”
“This was my 1st time dropping off Gibbs at Jayendri’s place. We are preparing him for a longer stay. The 1st time went well. Plenty of pictures shared and Gibbs came back happy. Jayendri was good at communicating proactively with me during the stay.”
“Sharon did an amazing job with our high-energy lab puppy Luna. Our dog was tired day after we picked her up, which is nothing short of a miracle! Her place is set up very well for multiple dogs, and I appreciated her thorough communication throughout the day and also at pick-up. Will definitely book with her again!”
About: I have been a dedicated dog lover for years, caring for a variety of breeds for neighbors, friends, and family. As a former foster parent to several dogs before adopting one, I am experienced in helping pups of all temperaments feel safe and welcome in a new environment. Since I work from home, your pet will have constant supervision and companionship. I specialize in providing personalized attention to ensure your dog follows their usual feeding and exercise routine. My own well-trained dog is a friendly playmate for social guests, but I am also happy to provide solo time if preferred. Whether it's long walks or just snoozing by my desk, your pup will be treated like family. As a full-time work-from-home professional, my schedule is extremely flexible, allowing me to provide 24/7 supervision and companionship. Your pet will never be left alone for long periods. I structure my day around frequent potty breaks, backyard play sessions, and midday walks. Because I have experience fostering, I’m great at maintaining a consistent routine that helps guest pets feel secure. Whether your dog needs a high-energy game of fetch or a quiet place to nap while I work, I can easily adapt my day to meet their specific needs. Safety is my top priority. I have a fully fenced, secure yard where dogs can play safely under my supervision. As I work from home and have fostered many dogs, I have developed expertise in monitoring pet interactions and interpreting body language to ensure everyone is happy and comfortable. At home, I take a 'paws-on' approach. I am happy to use crates for sleeping or meal times if that is what your pet is used to, or they can lounge freely in my office while I work. I treat every guest pet with the same level of care and trust I give my own well-trained pup, ensuring a stress-free stay for both you and your furry friend.
About: I have a medium size calm dog Judo who loves the company of other dogs. I have been caring for my own dogs since 2014, and started Rover in 2018. I also foster dogs for local rescues and especially have experience with shy dogs that need help trusting people. Because of allergies, dogs are not allowed on furniture or in the bedroom. We only take one dog at a time to insure your lovely pup gets the attention they deserve. We only accept dogs that are fully house trained. Accidents happen, but please do not send your dog over if they already have urinary or digestive problems. Please understand that we only accept fully vaccinated dogs to protect the health of our resident dog. Before booking with us for the first time, we recommend a meet n greet to ensure a good fit. I work from home and my schedule is pretty flexible. Potty breaks in the yard available throughout the day. Two walks a day with my dog and park visits on weekends. All interactions between dogs will be monitored. When I’m not around I will keep them separate in the first three days until I am confident that they get along. Food will be provided separately and toys will not be left around.

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Poolesville is $56 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $28 and $67 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Poolesville 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 October 2026, there are 4,592 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of MD. 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 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 .
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 , 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 .
