“Ellen is great! She has a big heart and is an animal person through and through. We started out with a few boarding visits and now go to Ellen for day care every week. She’s very easy to work with and has a great location for dogs to run around/play/hike. Thanks Ellen!”
“Emily is sooo great! She was extremely patient with our anxious dog; very communicative and sent updates (with photos) throughout the day. Her personality: warm, reassuring, professional. Her home: welcoming, tidy, located in a safe & quiet neighborhood. I would 100% recommend Emily as a sitter! We hope to use her services again & again!”
“We are new with Renee, Kuro has been consistently going in for day care for the past 3 weeks and I must say he has a blast. He is happy to go there, gets to play with other pups. Renee is patient and very attentive. She accommodates requests and also goes that extra mile to care for our pup. Thank you Renee.”
About: I have a 16 year old shorkie (shitzu-yorkie mix). Experienced from pup to senior care! I am able to provide any level of care for your furry baby! With years of experience in pup care, I provide attentive, compassionate, and tailored care for each pup I look after. My approach combines reliability with a deep understanding of your pup's unique needs, ensuring they feel secure and happy while their owners are away. I bring a calm, loving presence that helps them feel comfortable, content, and well-cared for. As a small business owner who works from home, I’m always present, creating a comforting and reassuring environment for pets in my care. I am able to take them on long walks and frequent potty breaks, as needed. I have a fenced yard and a friendly small senior dog. I only watch one dog at a time so I can provide your furry pup my undivided attention he/she deserves. My home is set up for pet care, with cozy, safe spaces for them to relax, play, and sleep. I create a calm environment with designated play and rest areas, so they feel at ease even when they’re away from home.
“Kelli was so nice, she really made me feel good about leaving my fur baby in her care. ☺️ Handsome had so much fun, he was knocked out by the time we hit the end of the driveway. Definitely would go to Kelli again and again!”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid. I love animals, as they are the most loving and authentic little beings. I’ve always had dogs and have taken care of family/friends/neighbors’ dogs when needed. I offer boarding, walks, a fenced in yard and socialization with my children and my own pets. Your pup will be in good hands and loved! My household always has an adult home for walks or ability to go out in the yard at anytime. We pop in and out on sports practice days in the evenings and for games on the weekends. Never more than 2 hours at a time. I have a large fenced in yard, can crate your pup and can offer walks, the ability to sit or lay on furniture, socialization for my kids, and socialization for my dog and other pets
“John and Jess were Amazing. Arly was a great addition to their Z crew trio. She was so excited to be there and they welcomed her with open arms. I'm so glad we met and she has a new family of friends in Frederick. We will definitely be calling again soon.”
“Vanessa and Bruce watched Ozzie for a day yesterday. We had a very bad experience with a day care (not thru Rover) where we left him there twice, and twice he got sick for days. When we got home last night, he was tired which is good. Vanessa was very patient and understanding of our possible plan changes. Love them and their fur babies, who are friendly and well behaved.”
“Rene is such a thoughtful and conscientious person, I could tell when I first met her that Rene would keep our fur children safe. Our dogs are medium sized but very sensitive and don’t fair well in kennels with a lot of loud barking, hard floors, and little human contact. Our youngest gets separation anxiety and jumps fences. Rene took all of this to heart and kept our pups safe and happy. Thanks so much , Rene!”
“Olivia was really great with Lucky. He fit right in with her puppies and they had so much fun playing in her big yard. She also sent me pic and video updates. I will definitely be using be using her services again. 10/10!!! Thanks!!!”
“Darshini & Joseph are amazing!!!! They took care of our dog as if he was their own. My dog recently lost two of his brothers and has been sad. After spending 3 days with them and their dogs & cats, our dog is much happier and playful. They kept us up to date on a daily with messages and pictures. Their home is beautiful and incredibly neighborhood. We highly recommend them for your pets’ daily care. Thank you for taking great care of Rocko. We will definitely leave our dog with them again.”
“They have been wonderful sitters—friendly and communicative. Our dog loves her time there and it’s god to know that she’s well taken care of. Comfy space with a fenced in yard and their dog is a good playmate.”
About: Hi, my name is Adrienne. My husband Nick and I live in a row home in downtown Frederick. I am an animal lover and will treat your pets like my own! I have been providing pet sitting services for friends and families for over 20 years. And for over 16 years, I raised dogs from puppy to adulthood. I volunteer at humane societies and have experience carrying for dogs with medical and special needs. No breed or size is off limits. I have a lot of experience with small dogs. I have used rover as a pet parent and strive to be the best sitter for you. I will provide daily updates via phone, text, or email depending on your preferences. I love sending photo updates of your pet doing fun things. We have a fenced yard for your pet to play in. I offer a complimentary meet and greet before your booking to become acquainted with you and your pets. This meet and greet is important to ensure I am the right fit for you and your pets. Im currently working part time so have plenty of time to play with your fur baby. I am available throughout the day to check in and walk your pets and am available for boarding throughout the week and on weekends. Your pet will have freedom throughout our row home and the fenced in yard. If they prefer their space, they will have a bedroom and floor all to themselves. If they like to make friends, we have one really friendly 7lb yorkshire terrier that would love to be their new friend. Our dog is crate trained and can be kept separated based on the client’s preference.
“My girl Ozzy had a great time with Rachel and her poodles. She made her feel welcom and Ozzy quickly settled in with everyone. She was flexible with my schedule and even watched her an extra hour when my event ran over. I am greatful Rachel was available on short notice and would happily book with her again.”

Bram had the best day with Ellen on the farm! We felt super comfortable with her already after our meet and greet, but she was great about sending updates and photos/videos during the day, and I can tell how much fun my sweet boy had (and how tired he is from playing all day!). We will definitely be rebooking ASAP!
My fur baby had a wonderful stay with Ruth and Agnes. They are amazing and professional. Ruth has a lovely home and fenced yard. They helped him adjust to his new furry friends. Ruth sent me an update and photos that let me know my baby was doing fine. We really appreciate it. I would highly recommend them and will be going back again!
I have used Sandra for several months for Daycare and Boarding. My puppy now gets excited when she realizes we are at her favorite play spot. There is a huge backyard that she loves to play in with the other dogs. Sandra gives consistent updates and photos the entire time and you know your puppy is in good hands

FAQs for Doggy Day Care - Woods
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,068 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Woods. 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 Woods 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 1,068 sitters in Woods, 89% 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.
