“Yang took amazing care of Ranger. She sent plenty of photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was at work. She was clearly attentive to his comfort and routine. She also accommodated my early work schedule, which I truly appreciated. Ranger came home calm and happy each day. I would absolutely book with Yang again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, thoughtful care.”
“Great job! Jennifer is so pleasant to work with. We were really comfortable leaving Ella with her. She sent me pictures of her during the stay. I will definitely rebook with her again.”
“Wish I could give more than 5 stars! Nina was wonderful, attentive and very caring towards my 2 dogs. She was in constant communication with me and very flexible and accommodating to their needs. My one rescue is a handful but he seemed to be doing great in her care. I got videos that showed how calm and relaxed he was. So glad I found a great sitter for my pups!!”
“I can’t say enough good things about June! She is one the most caring, hands on, and caring dog sitter I have met through Rover. She truly cares about your pet and will make sure she takes wonderful care of them. So glad to have found her! Our dog had the best day with her and her family.. the videos and pics she sent attest to that! Thank you June!”
“Nitin was great with Almond. Almond was a little hesitant at first but when it was time to go home, Almond wanted to stay longer. Nitin took him walks and sent pictures. Definitely a 5 star visit.”
“Eun Ha was great! She took care of Biscuit like her own. I was a bit worried since my dog has separation anxiety, but looking at the pictures and videos she sent me, I could tell he was very comfortable with them. She sent me more updates later on so I was at ease knowing he's in good hands. Biscuit seemed to have enjoyed his stay which never happened with other commercial boarding facilities. I would definitely book her again!”
“Daphne took great care of Joey. She is super friendly, easy to communicate with and very attentive to Joey’s needs / behaviour. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you 😊”

About: Hi all! I am interested in doing some petsitting to find some dog friends for my pup. I am not a full-time dog sitter, however, I'd like to find some more dogs that my dog will play with & hopefully build some puppy friendships. I live in Leesburg and WFH. I work from home & my dog is cage free all day. We usually do a longer walk in the mornings (between 6-7am) and play outside when it's cooler, then a short walk around lunch time, and another walk around sunset. Bedtime is around 9:30 in our house. Ideally I'd like to find other low-medium energy dogs that play well with my dog and can be trusted to free roam/play around my townhouse while I work. We go out for lunch time play around the neighborhood so good leash manners is a must.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and I also own one myself, so I’m very experienced and comfortable taking care of yours. Available Monday through Friday before 2:00 PM and for overnight stays. I’m very flexible, so if you need a specific hour, just reach out and we can work it out! We have a fenced backyard and plenty of toys, plus a fluffy carpet and couches where they’re welcome to lounge. My dog is very independent and likes his own space, so he won't bother yours. If your dog wants to play, he's happy to join in.
“Our dog loved his stay . She took great care of our pet and provided us with updates including video and pics. She was super friendly. Would drop our pet again for sure. Glad that we found her :-)”
“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!!”

About: Family‑style care with 15 years’ experience. Daily photo updates, safe walks, and cozy stays. I’ve learned every pet is unique—kind when needed, calmly firm when it helps. Trustworthy, community‑rooted, flexible—your pet’s second home. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life! I’m a busy mom and also a dog owner — I have a friendly 5-year-old male Goldendoodle who loves meeting new friends. Caring for pets fits perfectly into my part-time schedule, and I make sure every animal gets the attention and love they deserve. I’m usually available on Thursdays, Fridays, weekends, and often on holidays. I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. In my home, pets are treated like family — they have a calm, safe, and loving environment with plenty of attention and playtime. My 5-year-old male Goldendoodle is friendly and gentle, and he enjoys having other dogs around, so visiting pets always feel welcome. If your dog uses a crate, please let me know — sometimes it helps them feel more secure and relaxed. I also have a nice dog park nearby, which is great for walks, exercise, and social time when appropriate. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions carefully and keep open communication so we’re always on the same page. I use common sense to know when a pet needs calm time or playtime. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved, just like at home.
About: Hi, I’m Tori! Services I offer: • CAT Boarding ONLY - NO DOGS (My Home) • House Sitting (Overnight Care) • Drop Ins • Dog Walking • Doggy Daycare I just graduated from JMU and am offering pet sitting services while I am in grad school for radiation oncology! I specialize in caring for both cats and dogs of all breeds and ages. Why you should book with me :) • Fast communication and reliable updates • Flexible schedule • Daily photo and message updates • Experience with medication administration • Skilled with shy, anxious, and senior pets • Multi-pet household experience • Fostered 20+ cats and kittens • Volunteered at an animal shelter and cat café for 3 years • Farm animal experience While I’m relatively new to Rover, I’ve spent years caring for animals both personally and professionally, including working for a pet sitting company during my breaks from school. I’ll make sure your pets receive the attention, love, and consistency they deserve while you’re away! A little more about me: The past 3 years at college, I have volunteered at an animal shelter and cat cafe! I’ve fostered 20 cats and kittens! From administering medications to helping shy kitties come out of their shells, I’m proud to say they’ve all found loving homes! I’ve cared for cats and dogs my entire life and have also had birds, guinea pigs, fish. I’m very comfortable with pets who need extra care and patience. In addition to dogs and cats, I have extensive experience with horses and barn animals. I grew up riding horses competitively and have worked with goats, chickens, donkeys, and other farm animals. If you have additional barnyard friends, I’m happy to help care for them too! Feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your pets! I’m on summer/winter break which means I’m able to take care of your furry friends! I am extremely active and when I’m not pet sitting I’m usually at the gym getting some more exercise! As a pet sitter, my top priority when taking care of your pet is safety and high quality care. This includes monitoring their health, and overall well-being. Maintaining a pet-friendly environment, keeping an eye out for any irregular behavior, and making sure your pet is happy and healthy are my goals when taking care of your fur babies! I make sure all animals are cared for to my best ability and to be very quiet and extra gentle to one’s that are more shy or timid. I stay with the pets usually for 30 minutes unless stated otherwise to ensure that they are getting the love and attention they deserve.

Loved Smitha and Family. She was amazing with Luke. Luke was thrilled to go back the following week. I was stress free when Luke was with her. She kept me posted and her kids were great company for him. Thank you Smitha for helping both mom and Luke with our own versions of separation anxiety 😊

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 4,445 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Watson. 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 Watson 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 4,445 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 .
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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
