“We love Mickey! He’s trained my dog continually and kept my dog during the weekend to get him more used to other dogs and everything has gone well! We will continue training for life! Mickey is laid back and explains everything sufficiently for my family to use tactics for our dog.”
“Rhys had a wonderful time with Garrett and Ana! He came back so tired but was back his normal self by this morning which is unusual. It usually takes him 2-3 days to get back to normal”
“Jordan and his family was amazing with Monty. He was very quick in his responses with continous updates while taking care of my dog. His home provided the perfect space for Monty to roam and be free. Will definitely use again.”
“Robyn came through when I needed it! Very personable, professional and accommodating! Looking forward to establishing a long lived boarding a relationship for the very near future! ;-)”
“Summer was terrific! Anytime I wondered what my boy was up to a picture would fly in the inbox moments later as if she was reading my mind. I will definitely be requesting another stay for bam, I'm not even sure he missed me that much!!”
“Great dog sitter! My dog is a little anxious and he allowed her to warm up slowly. I was also pleasantly surprised to find that he gave her a bath before coming home!”
“I'm very pleased with my 2 little old ladies' first stay with Rebeca and Roman. Rebeca showed me the yard, took their shared kennel inside and set everything up. I left food, supplements, bowls, and my dogs' pads and blankets, and she did the rest. I got plenty of pics of my girls and their new friends while I was out of town. It was a very easy pick-up, since Rebeca had everything broken down for me. I won't hesitate to bring them back again. Chuck”
“Aaron & Tia did an AMAZING job watching my Bella. They were so warm and welcoming and I left knowing she was in good hands. Thank you both for the care you gave to her. She had fun with her new fur friends as well! Thanks again! 😊”
“Rosalina was awesome. I had someone cancel on me and she was able to accept the job very last minute. She sent so many pictures each day. I would definitely recommend and use her services again.”
“This was a short boarding experience of only 2 nights but everything went well. Our dog came back happy and healthy and we were happy with the updates and pictures. It felt nice to leave him with a friendly happy family.”
“This was my dogs second time with Tanita & Terrence and again, they were so great! They took him last minute and kept me updated on how he was doing; they always go the extra mile. Thanks again 😊♥️”
“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!”
“Connie was great and took wonderful care of our dog, Scout! She provided us with pictures throughout the weekend and keeping us informed on how he was adjusting. We definitely recommend Connie and hope to bring Scout back”
“Great people to take care of your fur baby. We had peace of mind leaving our girl in their care. They understood our dog's needs and habits, and gave us updates and pictures every day. She was safe, entertained and loved by John and Joanna' s family. Highly recommend them :)”
“I was out of the country for 10 days. Usually friends or family watch my dog, so I was a little nervous about using Rover. I booked with Jizelle, and she was wonderful from the first message through pick-up. She was responsive, communicative, attentive, and accommodating. I felt relaxed and reassured the entire trip I was gone. Her dogs are great too! I highly recommend her and would book again!”
“Jessica was an excellent dog sitter! She provided daily updates with plenty of pictures and videos of Flossy, and her communication was outstanding. She took wonderful care of our dog—we would definitely use her again. 5 stars!”
“Henry is a great sitter who was able to accommodate care on short notice for my quirky Golden Koda, who cannot be near another dog as he gets fear reactive; thus he must be the only dog in care. We had a successful meet & greet, and Henry asked a lot of good questions. He communicated and sent pictures regularly and kept me informed about how Koda was doing. I felt comfortable leaving my pup for a doggie staycation while I got to spend a few much-needed days on a trip with some family members. I would not hesitate to have Henry care for Koda again or to recommend him to others.”
“Candice took very great care of Lucky, he was treated like one of her own. We will be coming back whenever we need her assistance agian. Great Communication and Professionalism. Thank you so much.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Charleston Gardens
This was Yoda’s second stay with Seyla, and he was wonderful again! He constantly sent updates and videos of her activities, which made me feel like I was right there with her. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and well cared for. I’d happily book with Seyla again!
Seyla is THE BEST dog sitter in the DMV, hands down! Between the hiking, fresh chicken and broth with every meal, massive yard, and plenty of other dogs to play with, I am surprised my two pups were willing to leave! Seyla has a very impressive operation going on. He sends a ton of videos of their hiking adventures, meals, and play time in the yard. He also had no issues whatsoever handling my energetic pudelpointer and shy rescue. I have used plenty of rovers, and I can honestly say that Seyla is the best one I have found. His dedication to all the dogs in his home is truly admirable and put me completely at ease. I cannot recommend him highly enough! We will be back!!
Seyla was extremely communicative during our puppy’s long stay with him. Every day we received multiple videos and photos, including her daily meals. He let us know how she was adjusting behaviorally and there were numerous activities for our extremely energetic puppy to get into. Her behavior has actually improved since she’s come home. Even our kids think so. Very grateful to Seyla and we will make sure she stays with him going forward! Highly recommend!!

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.
94% of sitters in Charleston Gardens 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 Charleston Gardens 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 Charleston Gardens.
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 Charleston Gardens. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Charleston Gardens 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.
