“I can’t say enough great things about English! She has watched my dog on multiple occasions, and I’ve had a wonderful experience every time. One thing I especially appreciate is her excellent communication throughout the entire stay. She keeps me updated with plenty of pictures and detailed information about my dog’s day, including walks, potty breaks, meals, and activities. I never have to wonder how things are going because she makes sure I’m kept in the loop. English is reliable, attentive, caring, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Her updates give me so much peace of mind while I’m away, and I always feel confident knowing my dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust and would highly recommend English to anyone looking for a dependable and communicative dog sitter!”
About: I am a lifetime pet owner and I would love to provide quality care for your pets. Your pets will never know you are gone!! I agree that I dont have many reviews mainly because I haven't kept many pets through Rover. But those I have kept love my care. Give us a try and I promise your fur baby will be safe, happy, fed, and loved while here! I now have one 14 yo senior dog who knows he is loved. I rescued him from a shelter 13 years ago and he has been by my side ever since. He is a tri-paw, a 6 year cancer conqueror and the best boy. He welcomes new furry pals and in his old age really just prefers to say hello and then lounge all day. We do a daily walk around the neighborhood and he still looks forward to it. I took care of him when his leg was amputated 6 years ago due to cancer and when a tumor was recently removed. I feel pretty good about giving your darling meds or other medical treatments if necessary. Your furry baby will be well taken care of. I have a fenced in yard and I do walks. I have cared for younger dogs also who want to play and fetch and run. Your dog will be safe in my home and I will do my best to keep your dog on the schedule that you have.
About: I’ve been caring for my family pets since I was in middle school and have 13 years of experience doing at-home dog boarding. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes from yorkies to Great Danes, and love creating a cozy, safe environment for them while their owners are away. I have also had a lovable, goofy dog of my own for 7 years now, so I understand how important it is to trust your pet is well taken care of. :) My husband and I have been doing Rover for about 2 years now and have a good routine for playtime and evening walks with pets! While I work in the city, my husband works from home, so he provides love and care all day. Our dogs as well as our visiting pets love to hang out in his office with him between playing outside and getting treats. :) Whether your pet is coming into my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I prioritize their comfort, routine, and happiness. I default to your preferences for feeding schedules, exercise, play time, and any crating preferences. This way your pet feels with their usual routine!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old! I love dogs so much and the joy that they bring me is therapeutic. I have a 10 year old spayed dog-ther named Disco! She is great with other dogs and loves company. We would love to host your fur baby. I am at home currently doing freelance so I am available! Your fur baby will be in good care and have lots of fun here. I have a fenced in backyard and a nice neighborhood to walk through. I have 1 spayed female 10 year old terrier mix named Disco who would love to have some friends.
“We had a great experience with Roderick and his family. Since our dog is still pretty new to us, we were a little unsure how he’d do, but he warmed up to them so quickly. It was clear he was comfortable and well cared for the whole time. Roderick and his family were kind, welcoming, and treated him like one of their own. We’d definitely book with them again and highly recommend them!”
“We needed someone to look after our dog Archie for the day while we went to an event. We were going for the whole day and wouldn't be returning until the eveing so we didn't want to leave Archie alone for that long. Our usual dog sitter wasn't available on that day so I contacted Brian and another pet sitter on Rover to see if either one could look after him instead. It was a bit last minute (3 days notice) which was my fault for not trying to sort something sooner. The other person didn't even respond to my enquiry but Brian immediately did and said he was available. I made the necessary booking arrangements and Brian was felixable with drop off and pick up times if we needed to nudge them in case of traffic or whatever (we were an hour away). On the day we got sent pictures of Archie and I could see he was having a good time and felt comfortable with Brian in his home and with his dogs. I can definitely recommend Brian to anyone looking for a dog sitter and was so thankful he was able to take Archie at short notice. Communication was prompt and the pictures he sent reassured us that Archie was doing well. Thank you Brian!”
“Taylor did a great job with my fur baby! He was so excited to be there and to interact with other dogs. She provided updates with pics and videos to put any worry at ease. We will definitely be return customers!”
About: I have cared for a variety of breeds with different temperaments, personalities and levels of care needs. I have experience in training and discipline with a number of different tools, so I am comfortable in most situations including walking dogs with reactive or pulling tendencies. I enjoy taking dogs on pack walks in the woods like at Acosta Regional Park. I am a full time pet care provider. I can offer morning and evening walks, daycare, overnights, transportation, baths, basic lease and agility training sessions. Your dog(s) will enjoying being a member of my "woof" pack whether they are joining us for a pack walk or overnight. I can also offer a daycare setting and pet transportation services.
“I recently adopted Daisey and wasn't sure how she would do in daycare. Lindsay did an excellent job of caring for her and helped Daisey to settle into a new environment and enjoy the experience. She regularly sent me updates and photos of Daisey which helped put my mind at ease. Lindsay provided excellent care and I will definitely use her services again.”
“I had a last minute event come up and needed a next day sitter for Coco. Roxsand was very accommodating though it was last minute. She adjusted her schedule for us even though I was at her house at 6am. Roxsand also sent several photos of Coco throughout the day. I'm very appreciative of her time, care and professionalism and Coco looks forward to coming back very soon for more fun! Thank you!”
“Max was really nice and good with my dogs, one of my dogs is really nervous around strangers and she was comfortable around him, my dogs seemed happy and relaxed when we picked them up.”
About: I've taken care of pups since my daughter brought home our first baby, Cookie. We trained her to give her paw, sit, lay, and to kiss at "kiss" command. It's the cutest thing ever. She has been the Queen of the house ever since and then came along, Cinamon which is Cookie's daughter. They are best friends! Cookie had pups a while ago and we held her paw during birth and cared for her babies until they left us to our family members. Cookie is now considered a Senior but I always find ways to accommodate her needs so she can keep being the queen! We take constant walks around our neighborhood and also hang out in the big backyard. I'm currently not working; therefore, I have plenty of times to board and do drop in visits. I leave out occasionally to do grocery shopping, doctor appointments, and/or church services. I do not have a fenced yard but we do have secured long leashes to the soil which makes them feel like they are freely roaming around. We prefer to crate overnight but if your pup cannot do training for special reasons, we can accommodate. We currently have two small pups, a Yorkie and her daughter. They can be timid at first and will bark until they come down and get over the first couple minutes. We can put our babies away in separate rooms if needed be.
“Abigail was wonderful. I needed a sitter at the last minute for super early in the morning and late in the evening. She rearranged her schedule so she could help me. When I dropped my dog off she was very kind and I felt comfortable leaving. When I picked up my dog, I could tell she did a good job because my dog is normally very shy and gets depressed when I am away. When I picked my dog up, although extremely happy to see us, she still went by Abigail.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 15. Neighbor, friends and family have relied on me to take care of their furry family members. I have trained dogs from all ages, and have had a successful rate and happy customers. I work a weird schedule but make my own schedule, so I will always have time to work especially on the weekends I am completely free. I have a friendly dog who loves company, a crate if needed, a big walk trail and not to far from a dog park that I take my furry daughter to everyday. I have no kids so my daughter is my dog.
“Addie's tail was wagging away as she went into Lauren's house - clearly happy to be there again. We always feel confident leaving her with Lauren, that she will get good care, be in good hands, and enjoy herself as well!”

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Saint Charles is $44 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $36 and $50 per day.

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 Saint Charles 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 4,121 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 .
