“Alayja was amazing with my cat during her drop in visits. She went over and beyond for him and always responded quickly to any questions I had. I will definitely be rebooking with her.”
About: Hi! I’m Julia 😊☀️ For as long as I can remember, I’ve been surrounded by dogs. Growing up, I had all kinds—from dachshunds and pit bulls to Australian Shepherds and lovable mutts—and I’ve fallen in love with each and every one. I’ve previously worked at a veterinary hospital as well as a pet boarding facility, gaining hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’m now a stay-at-home mom to two beautiful, animal-loving girls who may occasionally join me. I truly believe dogs are best friends and should be treated as such. You can trust that I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I’m at home every day with my two daughters so I have a wide open schedule. I took a 3 year break from rover to raise my babies and now I’m looking to get back to dog walking! I have a lot of availability and love to be outdoors- rain or shine. I live on a 6 acre farm that has some areas fenced and lots of room for my 2 dogs to run and explore. I love to let any dogs that I watch get out some energy by running and getting to sniff & explore everything in sight.
“Sandra took such great care of both our very large dogs and cat for ten days. Very detailed with her notes and consistent with pictures. They had long walks, play time , food bowl refresh and cuddle time. Couldn’t be more pleased for the love care and attention she provided to my fur babies.”
“Valerie was absolutely amazing!! She was really attentive and affectionate with my baby boy and she provided wonderful updates with pictures and videos. If you need someone to take care of your pet while you’re gone, she’s your girl! I give her 10 out of 5 stars!!! ⭐️ ✨🌟💫”
“Jessica did a great job with my kittens. She kept me up to date on their shenanigans (and cleaned up after them when needed). She also brought things in off my balcony when a big storm was on its way. It gives me peace of mind to know my cats will be well taken care of while I’m out of town.”

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was 4 and feel a sense of comfort in their presence . They’re loyalty and respect made me feel safe and still does to this day (even though I own a cat 😂) . Growing up my aunt and cousins had dogs and when I would see them I would always feed them , groom them and walk them .Even till this day I still walk my neighbors dog . I would never look at those jobs as chores but as fun and even now I simply do not look at it as a chore but something I look forward to . Dogs have been an important part of my life and have been they’re for me and it would be great to be there for them. I currently do online school at home so my schedule is very flexible and I’m in the neighborhood and at home most of the time. I have a fenced back yard they can run in and have cat who will be staying in my mothers room and not coming out . Depending on the dogs size it will be able to have space and roam the house but if not I have plenty of space in my living room area . I will also have dog treats and extras bowls for water and chew toys to play with .
“Our first experience using Rover was perfect. Jill is the best and we’re so glad we found her. Our 3 crazy dogs loved her as soon as they met her. We will definitely be requesting her again. ❤️”
“Goldie Loves Milanni! Milanni is someone I can count on for drop-ins or boarding when I’m traveling around the world. I appreciate how easy it is to communicate with her and she confidently takes care of business without any worry. Goldie appreciates Milanni being part of her caregiving community when I am away. I recommend Milanni for your pet and caregiving needs.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs pretty much since I can remember. Always loved their company as much as I think they enjoy being around me. Currently have a full time job but I’m normally home before 5pm. I make my own schedule so I would normally schedule my days off around your needs. Also when I’m at work my wife stays home with our two children and she would also be helping take care of your pup in case I’m not able to. Neighborhood is pet friendly as there are several parks nearby to take the pups for short or long walks. I have two sons under 3 years old, they both enjoy being around dogs.
“JoAnna was great! Very flexible with our last minute change of plans. Our poor dog got a nervous stomach and made a mess in our house, but JoAnna handled it well. She cleaned up the mess and kept me in the loop the rest of the visit about his eating habits and any other tummy troubles. She’s great - we’ll definitely book with her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Bowie
Taryn was a fantastic Rover sitter for our dog, Rosy! From our "meet & greet" to her actual care of Rosy, Taryn was punctual, professional, and so kind and caring. She is an animal lover and I could definitely tell! She was great at keeping me informed while I was gone, followed all the directions we left for her, and I know Rosy enjoyed her company. I would definitely hire Taryn again!! She was great and I'm so glad I found her!
Robin was is so sweet and our pup just loved her company! She sent updates and pictures to let us know when she arrived/left, and also asked if we needed her to do anything else before she left. We came home to a happy pup! We hope to keep working with Robin in the future.
We are so appreciative of Chris being avail to pop in on our Lil big guy during the holiday. He was great from the communication, the photos he sent and giving big baby some tlc which I'm sure he enjoyed. We'd definitely recommend Chris and look forward to reaching out to him again.- Thanks Chris!!
I cannot recommend Sarah B.enough. From the very first message, their communication was clear, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. They treated my pet like family, patient, attentive, and genuinely caring the entire time. I received regular updates, photos, and check-ins that gave me total peace of mind.
Trishia was fantastic!! As a new mom of a diabetic pup it’s a bit of a learning curve figuring out how to properly administer insulin. I scheduled Trishia for a drop in and she so gracefully gave me tips and tricks to help the process be more comfortable for Faye and I in the future! I will absolutely be booking her again in the future.
My wife and I are incredibly pleased with the service provided by Jordan. This was our first time using this app and it went so smoothly. Jordan met us a few days ahead of time and she was very kind. We have two large dogs so we were a bit nervous initially but she handled them very well. Having Jordan care for our dogs really gave us a peace of mind and allowed us to be worry free when it came to leaving our pups. Thank you again Jordan! We will most definitely be booking again!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bowie stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bowie choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
