“I couldn’t be happier with Adi & Pat’s care for Louie! They communicate well and clearly, they asked good questions to make sure they’d cover all the bases for Louie’s care, and provided regular updates and photos, which were greatly appreciated. Louie came home happy and relaxed after his stay and knowing he had a comfortable time is great peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for anyone looking for local sitters and I will certainly be rebooking for any future stays!”
“Antonio is very calm and has a lovely home for your fur baby to enjoy while staying there. Barklee came home exhausted which usually means he had lots of fun.”
“Chad and Regina were very accommodating and flexible in helping tend to my pup’s first dog sit. Feeling at ease to leave her in their good hands in the future!”
About: I’ve had all types of pets growing up from fish, turtles, cats, three dogs, a bunny, an insane amount of guinea pigs you name it. Always loved furry friends. I recently relocated to the DMV area and had to leave my job. I wanted to do something I love and I love animals so I have plenty of free time for your babies! I like to make sure furry friends are fed, walked, and enriched with fun stimulating activities. Rest assured your furry friend and safe and cared for.

While we live in an apartment, there are plenty of areas to walk your pet. We are 5 minutes down the street from a lovely dog park where, if permitted, we’d happily take your pet to run and play.

About: Hi, I'm Lo! I'm a passionate animal lover and proud dog mom. I have one fur baby that’s 15 and it only deepens how much I pour into every animal I care for. I understand that leaving your pet with someone new takes real trust. That's why I bring the same consistency, attention, and genuine affection to every visit that I'd want for my own dogs. Whether it's sticking to your pet's exact feeding schedule, handling medications with care, or simply making sure a shy pup feels safe and loved, I show up fully. Every pet and every owner is different. I pride myself on adapting to what works for your family, following your routines, and communicating openly so you never have to worry. Big or small, hyper or mellow, special needs or not, every dog and cat has a personality worth celebrating and I'm here for all of them. -Services 🚶 Dog Walking: Daily walks tailored to your dog's energy and pace. You choose the time. 🏠 Drop-In Visits: Up to three visits a day to feed, play, potty, and give your pet the attention they deserve while you're away. 💊 Medicine and Special Care: Experienced administering medications and accommodating special health needs for both dogs and cats. 🐱 Cat Care: Attentive, calm care so your feline feels comfortable and loved at home. 🐕 All Sizes and Breeds Welcome: Big dogs, small dogs, shy ones, hyper ones, all are welcome. 🛡️ Home Care: Your home is treated with the same respect as your pet.

I currently work remotely, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, flexible scheduling, and attentive, personalized care for pets with diverse needs and routines. Because I am home throughout the day, I’m able to closely monitor behavior, maintain feeding and medication schedules, and provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and enrichment. This flexibility is especially beneficial for puppies, senior pets, or animals with anxiety or medical needs who require extra attention and reassurance. My schedule allows me to be fully present, responsive, and committed to creating a calm, structured, and loving environment. I prioritize safety, routine, and clear communication in every home. I carefully follow each pet’s established schedule, feeding instructions, and behavioral guidelines. In my clients’ homes, I respect their space while ensuring pets feel secure and comfortable in their familiar environment. I monitor for any changes in behavior, keep areas clean and hazard-free, and provide regular updates with photos. My goal is to create a calm, structured, and loving atmosphere where pets feel safe, trusted, and well cared for at all times.

I’ve also grown up on a farm and handled all types of pets from goats, pigs, cows to dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish. I believe every animal deserves to be treated as family not just a pet.

We will ensure nothing is around that will harm the animal whether it is cables, shoes, food, etc. we will always be around to ensure your pet is taken care of and in good health.
“We as Valerie's owners added a complicated wrinkle -- I am traveling and have the Rover.com account, and my daughters were on the ground doing the drop off and pick up. Ana did not blink an eye over our logisitcal wrinkle. She was so easy to work with. My daughter said Ana was extremely welcoming and clearly a dog person, so Valerie was so excited to be at her place. We would definitely book with Ana again.”
“I felt very confident my dog was being very well-looked after. Cassidy sent me frequent photos and updates and seemed very happy to have my dog. I will definitely contact Cassidy the next time I need daycare of boarding.”
“Shantell is great. She is always sending me pictures of my pup relaxing with her pals, and she has been very accommodating with me if I need to pick up my dog a little later than expected. Shantell makes my life better and keeps my dog happy.”

“Josefa was wonderful with our dog Toby (mini schnauzer, 8 yrs old, 30 lbs) when she looked after him for the day. She was so warm, welcoming, communicative, and made sure that Toby was comfortable while in her care. Toby was super relaxed when we picked him up, which is a great sign. We're so glad to have found Josefa and will absolutely reach out again for doggy day care. Highly recommended! :)”

Over the past two years, Amani has been the best, most reliable daycare for my golden Blob. Every single time I drop her off, Blob is absolutely out of her mind with joy to see Amani. When she comes home, Blob is dead dog tired after a full day of play. Blob formed a particular attachment to Amani's son, who taught her tricks, read to her, and played soccer with her. Their friendship is absolutely adorable. Amani took excellent care of Blob weekly from when she was two months old to two years old. Through that time, she was always flexible when my needs changed, picking up Blob or changing the date when I requested. We are sad to be moving out of state and will truly miss Amani and her family.
Chanelle provides greatcarefor Poppy who was reluctant to go with her when we started in January. Now Poppy waits at the door with tail wagging eager to go. Chanelle boarded Poppy last week while I was on vacation. Poppy was very happy and I ws confident she was very well cared for by Chanelle who truly enjoys her.

Pallavi and Alex have been a gift sent from heaven. My baby Luna was welcomed with open arms and i see nothing but smiles from her anytime she spends time with them. I really appreciate their services and am glad Luna gets to spend her days with them and their family. I would recommend them to anyone and may God continue to bless all that they do for busy moms/dads like me. Keep bringing joy to our fury friends and companions.
I highly recommend Ayah! She is super communicative and cares so much about Louie. They went on long walks and played in the dog park. Ayah is very flexible with drop off and pick up times, and kept me updated throughout the day on how Louie was doing. Louie can’t wait to go back soon!
We were visiting DC from out of state for the 4th and wanted to visit the Great American State Fair, and not only was it WAY too hot outside for our standard poodle, but dogs weren’t allowed in the festival. We messaged Josefa to check on her availability and within hours we were dropping our baby off and she was gracious enough to allow us an 11:30pm pickup. Josefa sent us pictures during Cliff’s stay and he looked relaxed and seemed excited to see us when we picked him up, but otherwise calm and not at all stressed. I have a feeling he just got petted and loved on the whole time he was there. Highly recommend this very responsive and super sweet sitter. Thank you again Josefa for taking such good care of our Cliff!!
Gregory is so wonderful with Evie! We’ve used him multiple times and, honestly, it brings me so much joy and ease to know they take care of Evie like their own. They play with her, challenge her, cuddle with her, and she looks forward to going every time! She loves their dogs and they’re all like little besties now. Gregory has great communication and provides updates throughout the day to make everything even better. We love sending Evie here!!

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Silver Spring
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Silver Spring on Rover is $32.1 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 5,435 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Silver Spring. 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 Silver Spring 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 5,435 sitters in Silver Spring, 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.
