“Katie is a stellar sitter and her youngsters and pup are all absolutely adorable! Katie was very attentive to my pup, Major, and very communicative with me. Major seemed surprisingly at ease exploring their house when he first arrived, and by Day 2, dropoff was already a breeze. I greatly appreciate Katie's flexibility with drop-off and pickup times, and I LOVED the card she left for us in Major's backpack - what a delightful touch! The neighborhood is of course exceptionally safe, which is always reassuring when leaving even fur babies with someone new all day.”
“First daycare experience with Emmanuel and my puppy had a time. Nori was in the company of other dogs which she loves. Lots of space inside and out to run and play. She was returned to me good and tired. We are looking forward to our boarding stay.”
About: Hello I'm a fellow dog owner. My Charlie is a 30 pound sheltie mix and gets along with everyone. He's super friendly so he'll get along with your dog. I work from home two days out of the week and I'm available on weekends for doggy daycare where they'll play in the backyard, get walks, I'll make sure they eat, and get enough water. I can do over night any day of the week as well. The days I work from home are Tuesdays and Fridays. If you have questions please feel free to ask. I'm very accommodating but obviously I do have concerns. I have two crates and two beds on my own they can used so you don't have to bring your own.
“Helen was a great find! She is so sweet and patient. By the 3rd drop off our pup was so excited to see her he was jumping out of the car. We were very lucky to find her! I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Jona was fantastic with CoCo! She took her on walks and sent us photos and updates, which we really appreciated. We’re excited to book with her again and look forward to more playdates with her furry friends!”
“Russ and Andra are excellent dog sitters! They are very reliable and treat our dog like one of their own. They always send cute pictures and videos of our pup running around, playing, and relaxing. Our pup Twyla has the best time when she visits Russ and Andra!”
“Laia was a great sitter! Great communication and flexible on pick up/drop off times. Laia was very understanding and kind. I would highly recommend her for your pet needs!”
“Milo had a great time with Marcela. Marcela is a very kind and gentle person and Milo look an immediate liking to her. She look after Milo with great care since he is a 3 month old puppy. When he came home he was cheerful. Marcela was very prompt in picking him up and dropping him - I am surely going to continue Marcela’s services based on her availability. Thanks Marcela! From Milo and Jay!!”
“Shayna did an amazing job with my dog! He enjoyed going to her daily and loves her dog too. I will be taking my dog again to Shayna! I definitely recommend her for the services.”
“Azaria was amazing! She was very responsive, and just had an infectious personality. She was very kind and we knew in an instant that Kole would be in good hands. She sent lots of pictures and Kole seemed very relaxed and happy when we picked him up. We will definitely use Azaria again!”
“Kristen is a great dog caretaker! She really helped us out when our regular daycare temporarily lost air conditioning in the high temperatures of August. We are so grateful to her for taking our senior pup in a pinch! At the end of each day in her care, he was a delighted boy!”
About: I've had a pet most of my life. Missy was my first cat but I've had 5 since her. Cats typically love me even the shy ones. Max was my first dog but I've lived with or owned 5. I even owned a hamster named Ralphie when I was a young adult. Recently, my family lost our 14 year old Yorkie Duncan. We now open our home to boarding and daycare we and a CA wood turtle. I walk, love on, feed, and have bathed all my pets. After owning a service based business for over a decade I closed it in 2023 to pursue other businesses with more flexibility and less stress. I work and volunteer outside the home about 5-6 days a week but have a lot of flexibility. I specialize in caring for your pet while you’re away on vacation for a weekend, a of couple weeks, or just a day or evening out on the town. I love animals and I feel it's one of my passions to take care of them because they take care of us. I make sure your keys are in a safe place and unmarked. I prefer lock boxes at your home so they are kept safely onsite. I don’t give codes to anyone and I don’t bring other people or pets in your home on my visits.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Woodlawn
Finn had a wonderful day and was well cared for in every way. The communication and entire process was seamless and very positive. Ana and Garrett and their family provided us a great service by watching Finn. We were able to enjoy the entire day at Mount Vernon knowing he was well cared for and his every need was met. Thank you both so much for the gift of time and your attention to detail. We would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area.

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 Woodlawn 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 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 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 4,878 sitters in Woodlawn, 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.
