“Robin made it really easy to drop my dog off and pick him up. He had a great playdate while we were going out for lunch. Robin sent lots of cute pictures and videos.”

“Brittanie and Ryan are amazing and caring couple. They have a lovely family and 2 beautiful dogs. We were made to feel very welcome in their house and they did everything they could to give Zoe a comfortable stay at their house. They are very responsive and communicate well. Zoe comes home happy after each stay at their house. We recommend them highly....”


“Ken & Felice were absolutely a breath of fresh air. They clearly love dogs and are excellent hosts. I could tell from their photos, and Charlie’s demeanor at pick up time that he was well cared for and in loving, capable hands. Looking forward to his return and many new furry friendships!”

“My dog Melo stayed with Nicholas today for the first time, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. I never had to worry because Nicholas kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and videos, which I really appreciated. From the moment we arrived, I could tell he was knowledgeable about dogs—he let Melo take the lead in introductions and gave him the space to warm up at his own pace. Melo also had an absolute blast playing with Nicholas’ dog, which made the day even better. I would highly recommend Nicholas and will definitely be booking with him again!”

“Brandi took great care of our beagle boys. You can tell she loves animals. The yard and the home are great for hosting our dogs. She was very responsive and kept us updated with pictures. I’m so glad we met Brandi!”

“Liz and Jeffrey were so wonderful with Lola and Daisy! It was fairly last minute and they were incredibly understanding. They provided a lot of information about their home and care that made me feel so much better about dropping my girls off with them. They even got to attend the eclipse viewing party with some fabulous kids!! They provided lots of updates and videos which helped me enjoy a long day at work. One of the best Rover experiences I've ever had, if not the very best!!”


About: I’m a proud dog parent to Moonie, my very smart 3 year old Maltipoo, and I also live with a 4 year old Pomeranian — so yes, my house is basically dog approved. I love walks, dog parks, treats, and teaching Moonie new tricks. I’ll treat your pup like family, with lots of love, patience, and probably a few compliments ❤️🥰💕 I work in the office some days, but I’m mostly remote and home with the pups. There’s always time for potty breaks, playtime, little backyard zoomies, and cuddle breaks.. so basically, the dogs have a better schedule than we do 😂 I live in a townhouse with a small backyard — perfect for quick potty breaks or a little zoomies session. My neighborhood is safe and great for walks. I always clean paws after potty breaks, keep fresh pee pads available and changed daily, and yes… dogs are allowed on the furniture.
“My pup didn’t want to leave when i came to pick him up!! My puppy Sulley clearly received such great care and attention from both Carly and her family. Their dog Oliver was also sweet and playful with Sulley as well! I already plan to book with Carly again!”

“Esther and Yi took great care of Eevee. Eevee was a picky and slow eater but Esther ans Yi was very patient and accompanied her to finish her food. Eevee had a great time with their puppies Milk and Peanut! She can’t wait to have her next vacation in Esther and Yi’s house!”

“My Jessie has separation anxiety, which I is why I bring her to daycare. She did very well with Lidia and Lidia's sweet, mellow dog. I will definitely bring her there again.”

“Fabulous!! These guys were recommended and I was so happy that they are so knowledgeable and great with dogs!! Brody was taken care of and mommy was given lots of photos!! Thank you!”


“We had to come to Baltimore MD at a rush and bring our westie for a serious family emergency. Veronica was excellent and professional from the very start . She accommodated our last minute request and made us feel very comortable with leaving our westie with her on a whim . Highly recommend !”

“I can’t say enough good things about the care my Duchess received from Lingli!! From the moment we arrived, I felt completely at ease. She was so kind and welcoming, and I truly appreciated the daily photo updates—it made being away from Duchess so much easier. Lingli's patience and flexibility, especially with my changing schedule due to meetings, meant the world to me. It’s rare to find someone who is both professional and genuinely loving toward pets, but she’s exactly that. Highly recommend!”

“My 6lb maltipoo Sophie LOVED puppy day care with Kelly. I recently moved and was nervous about finding the right care for Sophie. I initially booked one day with Kelly and immediately after the first day, booked the rest of the week! The communication throughout the days was fantastic and Sophie was so excited to return each day. It was very clear that Kelly is attentive to Sophie the entire day…. Walks, snacks, rest, playtime. Totally recommend Kelly! I will be a regular.”

“Jeremy was great! We had to make changes to the reservation, and he was very responsive and made changes quickly. He also did a fantastic job watching Indi, and he provided a lot of picture updates. Thanks for doing such a great job with our dog!”
“We booked day care with Francine super last minute and she accepted a same day request (on Christmas Eve!!) Our dog had a great time with their 2 dogs, running around in their fenced in back yard and chilling in the house. We would strongly recommend booking with Francine!”

Arbutus dog parents share their Rover experiences
Robin and her family were amazing! our fur baby started staying with them at 10 weeks old and they loved her like their own. they were pretty flexible when things came up last minute. our day to day responsibilities would not have been possible without their help with our fur baby who received all the love and care. 100% would recommend Robin and her family ❤️

Virginia & Steven took great care of my dog Chronos during his stay. They sent pictures throughout the day, which I really appreciated because it gave me peace of mind knowing he was doing well. They have a nice fenced backyard where Chronos was able to run around and get his energy out, which is great. Overall, I was really happy with the kindness and care they showed him. I would definitely trust them to watch Chronos again.

Nicholas is great with dogs and is very knowledgeable. We didn’t have many doggy day care options with a 3 month old who couldn’t be around strange or unvaccinated dogs yet, so we were grateful to find Nicholas, who would come get our pup, be so sweet with him, help him get all his yayas out, and sent lots of pictures and videos doing the day. We couldn’t recommend him more for puppy sitting!
