“I normally don’t leave reviews, but it’s my sincere pleasure to sing Anna’s praises. I had a recurring daycare booking for my Irish Setter two days a week, and Anna was wonderful. Anna was reliable, kind, and clearly loves dogs. My dog was always excited to see her and came home happy and well cared for. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I’m so grateful we found her and would happily recommend Anna to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy dog sitter. Five Stars all around!!”

About: I work full time remotely. I love pets and have grown up with various kinds of pets my whole life. Im very comfortable with them and love to cater to them. I am a responsible professional that also uses this app for my beloved dog and know how it feels to want your pet to be safe and happy while in the care of someone else. I work through the week but have weekends available to take care of your pet while away. I too have a little chihuahua mix that needs attention when I’m away. I understand loving your fur friend but having other obligations and being in need of someone to tend to them. My little pooch is friendly and loves other dogs. He totally vaccinated and has his rabies shots as well. I will have your dog in doors however will take them for walk to get fresh air at your request. I live in pet friendly apartment accommodation with dog parks throughout it.

About: 15 years of own pet care experience. I have cared for pets and volunteered on animal shelters before. I own a frenchie boy who is very calm , never barks and loves to eat. If needed on a case by case basis I can arrange to have your baby in my care alone :) Loved animals since little. I will love your pet like its my own. I’m a civil engineer with a frenchie pup working from home! Dog-walking or pet sitting will be a smooth addition to my daily routine that your pup and I will enjoy! Meet and greets needed for dog sitting. Will send you photos or text to let you know how your pet is doing! Please let me know of any fears your pup has. I typically let my dog sleep my couch or bed but will ask for permission first.

About: I have been an animal lover since the beginning of time! I have always loved and respected animals and nature. It’s always been a culture in our home growing up. As an adult, I had a couple corporate jobs, but there was always something missing. I found myself being my happiest self whenever I was with my pets or taking care of other animals. Thankfully during Covid I was laid off, and left to find my REAL passion in life. I decided I wanted to work with animals full time, and so I did! I have never been happier! Working with animals has been my favorite job and I will never want to not work with pets. I have experience working with dozens of different breeds, & ages of cats and dogs. I am knowledgeable in pet safety and dog cpr. I have thousands of hours of training experience working with different pets before I became a full time pet nanny! This is not just a “job” for me, this is my passion, I enjoy being with pets and animals, I enjoy being a pet caretaker. I am a full time Professional Pet Nanny and I have some room for a couple new clients! I am available everyday for overnight boarding in my home 🩷 Pets in my care become my family while the owners are away. I have dedicated my home to being a pet friendly place. We also have nice trails and nature nearby I would love to take your pet to! I am going to treat your pet just like I would mines. If they make a mess on the floor, I’ll take care of it. If they want to snuggle, I'll cuddle and pet them with no doubt. If I'm going over your home to walk your dog and see your Amazon package on the doorsteps, I’ll bring it inside! And best of all, your pet will be in the best care possible. You will love my daily pics and summaries, providing you with a daily peace as you enjoy your vacay! I also have all the supplies, beds, bowls, toys etc

About: I have significant experience caring for animals, including both dogs and cats. I have previously worked as a pet sitter, where I was responsible for ensuring pets were properly fed, exercised, and well cared for. I also had my own dog for about seven years before he passed away, which gave me long-term, hands-on experience in responsible pet ownership. I genuinely love animals and always make it a priority to ensure that the dogs and cats in my care are healthy, safe, and emotionally supported. I typically have open availability after work on Fridays and throughout the weekends. In addition to my strong caregiving abilities, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet and be present when they want to play or go outside. During the week, I work in the mornings; however, I am available Monday through Friday in the afternoons. On Saturdays and Sundays, I am available all day. My older daughter is home during the mornings and will be assisting me with caring for the dogs or cats during that time to ensure they continue receiving attentive and reliable care. Your dog will have plenty of opportunities for exercise and play. Whenever they would like to go outside, I will gladly take them for a walk, to a nearby park, or allow them to play in the backyard or front yard under my supervision. They are also welcome to relax and move freely around the house. I will always be attentive to their needs and ensure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times.

About: I’ve cared for many of my own dogs & dogs of friends, gf’s, etc. since the late 1980s. I’m a long time dog owner and dog lover, who is also a professional and former small business owner - who is mature, responsible, and serious. On the professional side, I have a combination of organizational/business management and basic sales/marketing & customer service training. I own a single family home with a large yard. My “main job” is in tech and I work from home nearly every day. I’m minutes away from a large park as well. The pets (and people) under my care receive a lot of loving attention in a safe, higher end neighborhood. I have a fenced yard backing up to a very serene, wooded/natural setting with tons of trees. If needed, my home has specific crates/cages and multiple rooms, depending on what the circumstances require. However, usually most pets are allowed to roam freely throughout most of the house and yard, as long as they do not conflict with or disrupt others.

About: Hi there!! I’m the type of girl who sees a dog and sits down on the sidewalk, grass, or floor just to pet them. I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve had a golden retriever since I was 10, which has given me a strong understanding of dogs’ daily needs, routines, and personalities. I genuinely enjoy everything from long walks and playtime to dog park adventures, cuddles, and belly rubs. I also have experience caring for cats and take pride in giving them the patience, attention, and affection they need to feel comfortable and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own (how I would like my pup to get treated) and above all , always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well being. When i’m gone, my mom is always at home, so your doggy will never be alone. I truly love dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, from energetic puppies to sweet senior pups. Whether your dog is tiny or extra large, laid back or full of energy, I’m confident in providing the care they need. I take the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality and routine, making sure they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home while they’re with me. I’ll tailor your dog’s stay to their unique personality, routine, and individual needs because every dog is different and deserves care that’s personalized just for them. I only take a limited number of dogs at a time so each one gets the care and attention they deserve. Also, every dog that stays with me goes home with a bandana!😊 I’m currently a nursing college student on break which gives me the flexibility to focus on caring for your pup and providing them with plenty of love, attention, and personalized care. All day long! I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s individual needs and routines to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay. Also there’s always someone at home! so they will never be by themselves.

“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!”

About: I'm excited to have your furry friend over and will give them all the TLC they deserve while sticking to their regular schedules. I've been obsessed with dogs since I was a kid and have taken care of our family dog, Lucky, since he was a puppy up until he passed away due to old age at 17 years. I now have a 6 year old Shiba Inu, Sumi, and a 10 year old cat, Ellie. Sumi was a rescue mill mama and was extremely fearful. With patience and love, she's finally come out of her shell. I've managed to teach both the dog and the cat tricks and work on training with them daily. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment and am home most of the day. I'll stick to whatever schedule your pet is used to so there won't be any confusion when they return to you. Our neighborhood is pretty large and also has a walking trail, so walks can be as short or long as you'd like. There's a dog friendly space downstairs with plenty of room to run around and play with toys, or if they prefer to chill, there's plenty of pet beds and blankets in the living room. I have a very chill and friendly Shiba Inu and Husky/Shepherd mix at home that can keep your dog company. I do have a cat that has their own room and can be separated if your dog doesn't get along with cats. I also have a large crate and two pens available if that's something you're used to doing. Baby gates are set up between each floor, but are usually left open for my dog. There are cameras on each floor so that I can keep an eye on the pets if I'm leaving the home or on a different floor.

About: I have taken care of various types of dogs (and many other species of animals) and have administered medications. I am a conscientious pet provider, keeping in mind the differences in personality of each pet and the approach required to earn their trust. I am always on time, and take extra steps to ensure your pet is very well cared for, and that your pet and home are secured properly when I leave. I've been around animals all my life and am an active member of the neighborhood cat coalition to assist with trap, neuter, and release (TNR) the local cat population. My patient style when approaching an animal has helped safely trap and neuter several cats in our neighborhood. Additionally, my children grew up raising animals with the 4H community - cows, pigs, sheep, chickens, so I've been involved in all aspects of animals' care and safety. I am seeking a career change and my love of animals led me to explore pet sitting and boarding. I am trustworthy and reliable, and understand the need for quality pet care. I have a fully fenced back yard that is fantastic for dogs. I have a cat who is my pet service ambassador! A truly cool cat who gets along with all animals.

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Wheaton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Wheaton is $41 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $47 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 5,542 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Wheaton. 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 Wheaton 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 5,542 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 .

Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 5,542 sitters in Wheaton, 87% 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 , 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.
