“Brittany is the seriously best! She took care of my 2 year old labradoodle, and it was clear from the photos that my dog was having the time of her life in her big backyard and welcoming environment. Thank you, Brittany!”
About: I have two cats of my own who I adore. I frequently help take care of relatives' and neighbors dogs. My own black lab recently passed and taking care of other dogs is enjoyable and therapeutic. I am a teacher and home by early afternoon . My husband is home all day and helps take care of fur babies in our home while I’m at work. I am free in the evenings and weekends to help care of your fur babies! I have a two-story home with a back yard. Typically, dogs hang out with us during the day in our family room and sleep on dog beds in my bedroom. We live in a very dog-friendly neighborhood and walk dogs during the day on leashes. We have two cats in our home who are used to having dogs in the home.
“Absolutely wonderful ! Walked my dog twice .it was my first time using rover in a new state and Benjamin was a delight. I will be rebooking when I’m in the area again ! Thanks so much for taking such good care of my pup”
“Dana was great. We needed someone close to my sister's house while we celebrated an early Christmas, and she was able to help us out. We will definitely use her again when we are in town.”
“Alex took care of Pepe like he was her own. I very much appreciate the videos, photos, and updates. She was very good at trying to bring Pepe out of his shell. I will book with Alex again!”
“Kacie was awesome! She took great care of Queen while I was away at work. Kacie is very easy to communicate with and was extremely accommodating when my schedule was switched up at work last minute. Multiple videos were sent of their daily adventures. Kacie took Queen to the park or on a hike multiple times throughout the day. I 100% recommend Kacie if you need a dog sitter!”
“Janay was great with Layla’s first daycare session! She sent plenty of pictures and I could tell Layla was very happy hanging out with Janay. We’ve already booked a weekend next month.”
“Lindsay was awesome with our dog Zuzu! We are so glad to have found someone who we can trust to leave her with. We have already told several friends that they should reach out to Lindsay to watch their pups too.”
“Whitney is an excellent care provider for my fur baby! My girl suffers from separation anxiety and I needed someone she could hang out with when I was at work and my family was out of town. All I can say is this was the first time my baby was actually excited to leave me and stay with someone! She wagged her tail and easily went to Whittney when I dropped her off. Always came back to me happy and relaxed. Whittney was great sending me lots of pictures and she regularly took her for a walk. Plus, Whittney is so sweet herself, I want to be her friend!”
About: What sets me apart is the hands-on experience I bring with animals at every stage of life. I’ve bottle-fed newborns, cared for senior dogs with patience and love, and have extensive experience giving medicine to pets of all kinds. Beyond dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for guinea pigs and reptiles,so I understand that every animal has unique needs. With me, you can trust that your pet will be treated like family, whether that means playtime, specialized care, or extra snuggles. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine. I plan my schedule to prioritize feeding times, walks, and any special care instructions so that pets always receive consistent attention. I’m organized, dependable, and detail-oriented, which allows me to maintain each pet’s routine reliable,whether it’s daily exercise, administering medicine, or simply giving them the reassurance they need while you’re away. In my home, pets are welcomed into a safe and supervised environment where I treat them like family. I’m experienced with bottle-feeding young animals, administering medications, and providing gentle care for senior pets. I also have hands-on experience with small animals like guinea pigs and reptiles, so I understand how to meet a variety of unique needs. In a client’s home, I follow feeding, exercise, and care routines exactly as directed, while adding the patience and attentiveness that comes with my experience. Whether it’s giving medicine on schedule, offering extra support to older pets, or ensuring younger animals burn off energy in healthy ways, I provide reliable and compassionate care.
“Danielle was the perfect sitter for my pups! She was incredibly easy to work with, responsive, and kind. My dogs absolutely loved their time with her. When I went to pick them up they didn’t want to leave! Would highly recommend. Thank you!!!”
About: Neighborhood walks are necessary and healthy, and I am happy to offer that experience. What I’m really passionate about, is offering your furry family members an adventure…an experience. Whether that is swimming at Quiet Waters or Gradbury Park, or hiking at Little Bennett and Great Falls. My Chessie, Bea, can even lead the tour for a pack walk! Although I am not a trainer, we can work on some loose leash walking, so your walks are more pleasurable with your doggo. If you’d like, I can even offer a wash and blow dry before they head back home! I’m currently going back to school remotely, so my days and nights are free, and my schedule is flexible. I am happy to offer overnight stays, and last minute bookings. It’s just Bea and I. I have a fenced in yard, and I’m comfortable with traveling with your pet. So, we can run errands together versus leaving them in the house. I am extremely attentive and present.
“Alexis is GREAT! My lab mason is high energy, and suffers from some separation anxiety. I’ve never used a rover for these reasons. Well my concerns have been relieved. Mason had a GREAT time staying with Alexis. He came home smiling, wearing his new bandana (thanks Alexis!), and ready for a lil nap. Already planning to use again in the future. Book with confidence!”
About: I had my first pup when I was 5 years old; from that point on I've always had a dog in my life. To me dogs are loving and happy. I have a part-time job as an in home care giver, Taking care of the animals in my free time is a pleasure, I am happy to be with them. I make sure they have fresh water, nice blanket to lay on and a nice yard to run around in and they let me hold them once in a while.

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 Arnold 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 3,683 sitters in Arnold, 86% 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.
