“Thank you so much for taking such phenomenal care of Snoopy! You completely put our minds at ease from the start. The daily photo updates were great and put our minds at ease. It was clear that he was in good hands. Snoopy came home happy and relaxed and we will definitely be booking again!”

“Mila was an amazing dog sitter for my dog, Coco, over two nights. She was incredibly communicative, keeping me updated and reassured throughout Coco’s stay. Mila gave Coco all the attention and care she needed, making her feel right at home. It’s clear she’s not only professional but also a genuinely loving person who truly cares about the animals she looks after. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Mila to anyone looking for someone to take excellent care of their pet!”

“Deanna is such a great dog sitter! She and her lovely family took such great care of Romee. Romee had walks, plenty of playtime—just a perfect situation. Knowing Deanna was taking care of Romee allowed me to truly relax and not worry a bit while I was out of town. I’ll be rebooking with Deanna! Absolutely recommend.”

“We recently had to board our dog, Coco, with Joyce on very short notice due to a family emergency. We can’t thank her enough for her incredible care and support during this difficult time. From the moment we dropped Coco off, it was clear she was in good hands. Joyce was attentive, kind, and made sure Coco felt comfortable and loved. We truly appreciate the extra effort Joyce put into making our pup feel at home. We’ll definitely be returning for future boarding needs. Thank you, Joyce, for being such a wonderful host!”

“This was my dog Miles’ first stay with Jim and Mary, and it was wonderful! They looked after him like he was their own, and I’ve never seen our dog so at ease with a boarding stay. He came home relaxed and refreshed. I’m pretty sure he didn’t want to leave. Jim and Mary were very accommodating and made everything easy and stress free. They sent lots of pictures of Miles each day, which I always looked forward to! Our experience with Jim and Mary was fantastic and I look forward to having Miles stay with them again in the future!”

“Aster helped us in a very last minute pinch when our dog sitting plans fell through for an out of town vacation! Our puppy is under a year old and has a leg injury so required some special attention and care. This made us extra nervous to leave her but we received so many wonderful updates throughout our trip. Our pup loved her time away because of how awesome Aster and her family took care of her. We’ll absolutely be booking with them again!”

Chace loved his stay and got along well with her pup. Audrey sent daily updates and pics during his stay. I would definitely hook with her again.”

About: Hello, my name is Pam, I am a current pet parent who lives in Carroll County, MD. I have a passion for animals and their care. I would love to assist you with the care of your pets as well. 😀 I have been caring for pets in my community, since I was very small. I have personal experience taking care of my own pets at home, keeping their cages and clean and emptying and maintaining my cats litter boxes. I have several pets, l have a hamster and a cat, as well as two Guineapigs. I give them lots of treats. Currently, I am looking to provide pet care and assistance to those in my community, part-time. I would be able to provide care and support to people, working around 18 hours per week. I will be working 4.5 hours daily. 11AM-2PM or 5PM-9:30PM. I plan to work for now as a pet sitter, mainly for cats and other small animals, including small dogs, since it will be in my apartment, which is on the smaller size.

“Nikki seemed very knowledgeable sweetheart how to take care of our dog's anxiousness and energy from the get go. It helped a lot that she had a fully fenced yard and no pets of her own when we booked her. From meet and greet to pick up, she made it easy for everyone. We specially appreciated her updates and our dog truly enjoyed staying at her place. We also appreciated the tips and other feedback she gave us, as we are first time pet owners and our dog has some unique needs. Definitely will use her services again.”

“I was a little nervous leaving my puppy behind so soon after getting her but Shandell was super sweet and made me feel comfortable and more importantly my Baby feeling comfortable with her. She sent me tons of pictures and videos reassuring me that she is safe and happy. She even gave me a harness to use when walking her since I can’t never find one in her size. She will be rebooked with Shandell within a few days. Would highly recommend ?”

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Albantown home-away-from-home, packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Albantown.

<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Albantown sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

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 .

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.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
