I would suggest you null out the game board so you can have a single function to check/set the board. Something like:

bool try_move(int spot, char token) // spot is the board index, token is 'X' or 'O'
{
  if(set[spot]) // not NULL, already taken
  {
    cout << "Spot taken.  Choose another." << endl;
  } else { // spot is NULL so open for the taking
    set[spot] = token;
    return true;
  }
  return false;
}

make it smaller and readable first:

void playerx()
{
            cout << "What spot would you like Player 1? : ";
            cin >> spot;
            cout << endl;

            if(set[spot-1]=='O'){
                    cout << "Spot taken. Choose another.";
                    playero();
            }
            if(set[spot-1]=='X'){
                   cout << "Spot taken. Choose another.";
                   playero();
            }
            if(set[spot-1]!='X' && set[spot-1]!='O')
            {
                 set[spot-1]='X';
            }
}

Btw.. there's a lot wrong with this..

for example:

void playeroo()
{playero();}

why not just call playero() ?? playeroo() is not needed.
