“This was my puppy’s first time at doggy daycare, and Jayla was amazing! She made me feel completely comfortable, kept me updated throughout the day, and sent plenty of photos. My pup had a great time playing and socializing with another puppy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience — highly recommend!”
“I appreciate all of Denisha’s efforts to try to accommodate my dog’s needs. It did not turn out working out but that’s due to my dog’s own personal special needs and needing more individualized special care. Denisha was very patient and honest during my dog’s care. Some sitters do it for the financial gain but I could really tell that Denisha genuinely cares for the dogs that she sits. She was responsive and provided frequent updates/pictures. I really am thankful that she cared about my dog’s comfort and tried to accommodate her needs. I would definitely recommend Denisha!”
About: Caring for pets of all kinds starting with dogs since as young as 10 years old. We now care for 2 senior dogs and a cat of our own. Trusted by friends, family, and strangers to look after their fur babies whenever they are in need. I currently work a hybrid telework schedule so for the majority of the week I am at home and able to take care of pets. My partner works part time and is also able to care for pets in the home as well. We have a fenced back yard, 2 dogs and a cat of our own so your fur baby will never be lonely! They’ll also have plenty of space to roam around. We can crate if need be as well.

About: I had a dog named Buddy that I loved deeply for 16 years. Buddy passed away two years ago and it has been difficult moving on without him.I am looking for opportunities to dogsit for companionship and an excuse to be more active. I have dogsat for family many times and have experience caring for a range of ages and breeds. I am most familiar with caring for senior dogs. I work fully remote and will be able to be with your baby throughout the day. Please consider me you new sitter! Pet care fits into my daily routine, since I work from home, I’m able to take care of the dog during the day and night. I typically wake up pretty early and keep a regimented schedule throughout the day. I make sure the dog is walked. I make sure that I spend a little time playing with them if they’re older dogs and I spend a little time rubbing them or petting them. Some dogs don’t like all of that so you really have to pay attention to what type of dog you’re getting. Luckily I love all dogs so it’s all fun for me.

As an trustworthy and friendly sitter and animal lover especially dogs, cats next. I have plenty room to still learn more and experience more, the patience I have with fur babies is because they're pretty much like our children. Smoke free, cage free unless trained and requires to be in a crate, walks every 4 -6 hours during the day until the early night and sometimes late night, unless pet has special requirements to take more walks it can be provided.

About: Experienced With Dogs Big & Small 🐾 I’ve been a dog owner and caregiver for years. I previously cared for my small-breed dog, Patchy, for five years, and I now care for two beautiful Huskies. 🐶🐶 This has given me hands-on experience with dogs of very different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, and giving each dog the individual attention and care they need. I’ll treat your pup with the same patience, love, and responsibility I give my own! I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is pretty flexible. which allows me to accommodate dog walks & daycare during weekdays - Monday through Friday. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I care for my two Huskies, who have a fenced yard to play in, and I take them for walks every day at a nearby park. I genuinely enjoy being outdoors and spending time with dogs. Since I’m offering dog-walking & daycare services only, I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate my time and attention to making sure each dog gets a safe, enjoyable, and energetic walk. 🐾

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Walker Mill
Taylor was amazing. Not only did she watch my dog for the day, but she took care of her like she was her own fur buddy. She kept me updated throughout the day and told me what happened and what she did to remedy it. If not for the distance, I would book for my constant work schedule. But I will definitely consider booking again.
I cannot recommend Melissa enough! From the very first booking, she has been reliable, communicative, and incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs. The updates, photos, and videos she sends always give me peace of mind and make it clear that my puppy is not just being watched, he is genuinely being cared for and loved. Archie absolutely adores her and gets excited every time he sees her. She creates a safe, fun, and engaging environment, and it’s obvious that she treats every dog in her care like family. Melissa goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. What truly sets her apart is the extra effort and thoughtfulness she puts into caring for the dogs. For Archie’s first birthday, she hosted a birthday celebration with the other dogs in her care. Seeing him celebrated with treats, friends, and adorable photos was such a great feeling and meant so much to our family. It was one of those moments that reminded me how fortunate we are to have found someone who genuinely loves what she does. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, trustworthy, responsive, and will care for your dog as if they were her own, look no further. We are so grateful to have found her, and Archie is always excited for his next visit.
This was my puppy’s first time at doggy daycare, and Jayla was amazing! She made me feel completely comfortable, kept me updated throughout the day, and sent plenty of photos. My pup had a great time playing and socializing with another puppy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience — highly recommend!

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Walker Mill on Rover is $27.25 per day (as of September 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 Walker Mill 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.
