My pup came home happy and i felt at easy the entire time. One less thing to worry about. I will rebook and i recommend you check her out if you need a dog sitter!”
“This was my first time using this type of service to board my senior dog, and I must say that it was a blessing to find Sarah. She cared for Princess as if she was her own. Sarah provided me with status updates and went the extra mile. Will definitely use her services in the future. Thanks Sarah! You are the best!”
“I highly recommend Melanie and Randy to care for your pets! Our dog,Pax, can only have a certain type of dog toy, since he is a heavy chewer, and Melanie made sure that he would only have non-destructable toys to play with. She also gave updates with pictures to let me know how Pax was settling in. I felt very comfortable with Melanie and Randy caring for Pax and will definitely rebook with them on the future.”
“Brooke is the absolute best! I am very particular about who I leave my dog (Theo) with, particularly because of his small size and his separation anxiety. Brooke was phenomenal the entire week that we were on vacation and Theo was so happy. She took him on walks, played with him, let him take naps and snuggle with her, and she even worked on training to help with his anxiety. She even dropped him off for us after we'd been on the road all day. She sent regular updates, pictures, and videos, and he looked so happy every time and it was such a relief to not have to worry about him while we were away. Brooke absolutely goes above and beyond for her clients and I would highly recommend her to anyone! ♥️”
“Yiqiuxi & Nick L were wonderful sisters for our dog Aries. They had a large yard to allow for exercise and play. Their care was obvious in Aries appearance and actions.”
“Melissa and her family were FANTASTIC dog sitters. She sent pictures and updates every single day. Our dogs got along so well and had a great weeklong stay! 👍🏻 We can’t wait to book with them again! ♥️”
“My puppy Milo had the BEST time with Christianna! This was our first time using Rover and I was a little nervous leaving Milo with a stranger - especially since he is 6 months and requires lot of attention! But this experience has been amazing! Christianna was amazing with Milo - giving us updates and photos, and answering all questions I had! Milo had so much active time and was taken care of so well! We will definitely be contacting Christianna in the future!! ?”
“We met with Erwin to do a meet and greet with Jameson. Immediately felt comfortable with the home and backyard they provide for the dogs. Both him and his spouse put us at ease knowing that Jameson would be in good hands. We had to cancel due to a scheduling conflict on our end but will definitely be using his services in the future!”
“Daniela was an amazing puppy sitter! Bruno absolutely loved her and her sweet family. While we were out of town, Daniela communicated with us daily and sent us the cutest photos and videos the entire time. We are so thankful that she was able to accommodate our last-minute request. With all the belly rubs and cuddles, I’m sure our furbaby had an amazing time and we’ll definitely be rebooking with her next time!”
“Seyla did an outstanding job caring for Oakyley during his stay. He took Oak on multiple daily hikes with other dogs through different parks in the area, and he kept him hydrated and cool on the hot days. Seyla provided a continuous stream of updates throughout the day about what they were up to and his feeding regimen. Seyla took very good care of our dog and made Oak part of his family for three weeks. If you are looking for someone to care for your family pet and not have to worry about what's happening, look no further! Highly recommended.”
“Liz was wonderful with my dog over the weekend, providing attentive care and updates. I returned to a happy and well-cared-for pup. Would definitely trust her again.”
“Schuyler was flexible and helped navigate a change of plans. She and her husband came over twice a day and spent time with our pups, played with them, and gave them much needed attention while I was away.”
“Elissa was wonderful with my dogs. She was accommodating, asked great questions, and followed my instructions for feeding and walking perfectly. I got pictures and video of my dogs every day, which made me feel like they were in great hands while I was away. Elissa is very caring and truly likes and enjoys dogs. I highly recommend Elissa to care for your dogs when you are away. Thank you Elissa!”
“I had a great experience with Kareema! She was reliable, communicative, and took great care of my pup while I was away. I really appreciated the updates and knowing he was in good hands. This is my second booking and would definitely recommend her and book again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Avenue
Sarah was absolutely amazing! She watched my dog I.V. for 12 days, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. From the start, her communication was excellent—she sent plenty of pictures, daily updates, and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Most importantly, I.V. was cared for like she was one of her own. She was happy, healthy, and clearly loved during her entire stay. Sarah went above and beyond in every way, and we are so grateful for the exceptional care she provided. I would 100% recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and attentive dog sitter. We will absolutely book with her again—she’s a gem! 🐾💛

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 407 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Avenue. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
96% of sitters in Avenue can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Avenue home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Avenue.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Avenue. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Avenue 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
