“Highly recommend Kiran. We were able to do a meet and greet prior to make sure our dogs felt comfortable and got along. We were sent pictures and videos throughout the day which made us so happy to see how at home our pup had made herself, and how welcomed she was into their home. I’m so happy to have had Penny cared by Kiran and will definitely reach out to him again in the future.”
“Todd was awesome! My dog is a bit special and takes time to get used to new people. I did a short daycare session with Todd to get them acquainted and they were buds by the end of the visit! He is very patient and took his time to meet my dogs needs - highly recommend!”
About: I treat each dog or cat like they’re part of the family, taking the time to understand their personality, routine, and individual needs. I’m patient, dependable, and comfortable caring for pets of different ages and energy levels, including playful puppies and senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I work remotely from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention and care they deserve. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day while still keeping up with my work. Your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I love having a furry friend around while I work! I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where pets can feel right at home\. I live right off a golf course with plenty of walking paths, making it easy to give dogs plenty of exercise and fresh air\. Since I work remotely from home, I’m also able to provide lots of companionship, attention, and regular breaks throughout the day\. I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while they’re with me
“I couldn’t be happier with Cooper’s first daycare experience with Alicia and her family! From the moment I dropped him off, I had such a good feeling, and picking him up so happy and full of joy made my day! Alicia’s wonderful report was just the icing on the cake. Finding someone you can genuinely trust with your precious pup means everything, and I’m so grateful i found her. It gives me such peace of mind knowing Cooper will be back with Alicia and her family for his upcoming stay. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
About: I've always been the family, friend, & neighbor go-to for pet care! I'm friendly, reliable, and I have a huge heart for furry friends. Your baby will be happy and free to roam the home all the time and play with an energetic, pup-friend (my boxer/hound rescue). Daily walks, plenty of playtime, and lots of love are guaranteed. I am comfortable administering medicine, and your pup is welcome on the furniture. Any questions just ask! I am a teacher who is home weekends and most school holidays and can pick up/drop off your pet if needed. Last minute & holiday bookings are welcome. I have a large crate and access to smaller crates if needed. Otherwise, pets are welcome to roam free indoors all day & night. I'm in a 2 bedroom, garden-style condo. with a small patio that pups can be on a lead if they like. Otherwise, we can go to a little-known dog park that is grass surface and play for an hour every day (depending on weather). In your home, I can play with your pup, feed, medicate, whatever is needed. Overnights at my home are easy with last minute bookings. Thanks for reading :)

“Jeanette was absolutely amazing! My dog Luna instantly felt at ease and smiled the whole time she was there. Jeanette sent me so many pictures and videos and in every one Luna was full smiles. Luna had a great time and we will definitely use Jeanette again. Highly recommend!”
“Millie enjoyed her first Rover.com experience with Mario who calmly coped with her initial separation anxiety and a couple of carpet mishaps. He kept us informed during the sit, including photos, and we felt comfortable leaving Millie with him. We're all looking forward to a return visit.”
“Our 4 mo old Lucy” has spent two days with Alesia and her two young adult dogs, all doodles. Our pup came home tired as she played all day with the other dogs and she didn’t want to leave when we came to pick her up. Alesia followed directions on our puppy’s schedule and was great at gentle corrections. We will definitely be using her again!”

Jeanne was a godsend when I had an unexpected family emergency in the area. I was traveling with a puppy and needed to find someone who could watch her while I was at the hospital. She was so good with my very energetic pup. It was such a relief to know she was in good hands while I spent the day with my mom at the hospital!
Nandini has been an excellent dog sitter! She kept us updated with periodic photos and messages about Leo, and we could tell that he was super happy and comfortable at her place. She gave us complete peace of mind and made us feel that Leo was in safe hands, so we didn’t have to worry about him at all while we were away. Nandini is pleasant, welcoming, caring, and very easy to work with. We truly appreciate the wonderful care she gave Leo and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.
I can’t say enough good things about her! She was reliable, caring, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear she really cared. I felt completely at ease knowing things were in her hands. Absolutely five stars.I would trust her again in a heartbeat.”
Sherina is a gem! She and her husband both met our separation anxious sweet girl Stax at the door and made her so welcome in their home. Stax got a meet and greet so she was less anxious and Sherina was so thoughtful in her care questions. We will happily and hopefully work with Sherina again soon!
We had such a wonderful experience with Maggie's sister! Maggie is still a puppy, so she has endless energy and is extremely curious about absolutely everything. She also has a very sneaky habit of trying to eat anything she can find off the ground, something we’re actively working on! Greta and her sister was so patient and attentive with her and took Maggie on 7 walks throughout the day. I also really appreciated how well everything was documented throughout the day. It was reassuring to have such detailed updates and know exactly how Maggie was doing. And I absolutely loved that she nicknamed Maggie the “trash cleaner” because of her determination to pick things up off the ground. 😂 It was so accurate that we’ve decided that’s officially Maggie’s nickname until she learns to stop eating random things! It was clear that Maggie was very well cared for, and we felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such attentive and capable hands. We would absolutely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Reston is $38 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $8 and $50 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,167 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Reston. 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 Reston 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 5,167 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of VA. 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
