“Felt very comfortable boarding our dog with Nettie. We had a great meet and greet with her and her dogs first which gave us a lot of confidence. Our dog has some special needs and she was very tuned into ensuring he'd have a safe and fun stay. She's incredibly knowledgeable and caring with dogs and provided us with lots of helpful training tips. We received lots of videos of him during his visit and look forward to going back to her again.”

“Awesome service! He took my pups in at the last minute, sent pictures, took them for walks, and made them feel comfortable. Provided special attention to one of my pups that has really bad separation anxiety. I highly recommend if you want someone that will treat your pups as his own, this is your guy!”
“Karen and Dale were great and I’d highly recommend them to use! We will definitely use them again when needed. They were great with their communication and gave daily updates with a picture or video. It was clear they care about their dogs and the rover pups! The outdoor space is great and it was clear my dog had a blast with them.”
About: I treat pet sitting as a professional responsibility, not just a hobby. I focus on behavioral observation—noticing the small changes in mood or appetite that others might miss—ensuring your pet is not just safe, but truly comfortable. Whether your pet is a high-energy toddler or a dignified senior, my goal is to provide a seamless, stress-free experience for both of you. I’m currently an active duty full time college student that has plenty of time to their self. I wake up early in the morning around 5:00 to work out before I start my day off and I’m home everyday at 12:00 after class. I rarely have plans on the weekend so I am mostly free the whole day Saturday and Sunday. I have a secured gated apartment that also has a dog area so they can socialize and get plenty of exercise if needed. I clean every week and have plenty of space. I will have a specialized area directly for your pet to enjoy them self that is also nearby my room if they have anxiety.
“If you read the previous reviews you already know Asha is amazing. My furbaby was so anxious and nervous but Asha was patient. Gave him space and time to adjust. He came around eventually but she was amazing! Already planning a future booking.”
“Payton and her husband were awesome! Our dogs had such an incredible time with them, they almost didn’t want to leave. They provided updates regularly and lots of mental stimulation and walks for our pups. Can’t wait to use them again!”
“Michelle was kind and caring, and our Minnie clearly loved her. She was communicative, which was helpful, and Minnie adjusted quickly to the home and routine. Michelle sent many pictures, and we could see that Minnie was super happy in her care.”

“Megan was wonderful - I would say she went above and beyond. My dog Carter and I had not been apart for a full day or even an overnight since I adopted him in January and I was very worried about being apart from him for nearly a week. Megan clearly made Carter feel at home, listened to the things I told her would help maintain Carter's routine, figured out how to adjust when Carter made clear he wasn't staying in his routine when he out of his routine. They clearly had great affection for one another and Megan sent me many photos and videos showing me that Carter was doing well. It was a great experience and I would want to hire Megan again for a similar occasion.”
“Great experience! My Frenchie was clearly loved and well cared for during her stay. I received daily photos and updates, which was so reassuring and made it easy to see that she was happy and having a great time. She came home happy and relaxed. I really appreciate the wonderful care and communication, and I would definitely book with this sitter again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ammendale
A Lifesaver! Exceptional Care and Service Asher was an absolute godsend! I needed someone to watch Kash while I was out of town, and he was able to accommodate my request on very short notice, which I truly appreciated. From the start, Asher was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and flexible with both drop-off and pick-up times. His rates were also very affordable, which initially caught my attention, but the quality of care he provided really made the experience worthwhile. Throughout Kash’s stay, Asher sent pictures and updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing my little guy was in good hands. Kash seemed to have a great time, and when I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s always reassuring to find someone who treats your pet like their own. Asher made the entire experience easy and stress-free, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. I will definitely be using his services again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and affordable sitter!
It was a long 35 days without our dogs, but they were in good hands with Olivia and her family. My dogs gave Olivia some challenges along the way with eloping, etc. —- probably because they are not used to us being away from them for so long. Olivia handled the headaches our dogs gave her with grace. She was very transparent with things, which we truly appreciate. Thank you!
Working with Daren was a great experience. This was our family's first time using the service and we were a little hesitant and nervous, to say the least. Not to mention, it was our two dog's first time being away from the family. Darren was responsive, helped to explain the process, and very accomodating to last minute changes and reservation modications. He communicated throughout the reservation, with pictures and text updates, which was really helpful and eased our minds. We would definately recommend Darren and feel confident that we would use his service again!

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 Ammendale 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 Ammendale.
<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 Ammendale 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.
