About: I love all pets. I have been pet sitting since I was a teen. My clients trust me and they know their beloved pets will be well taken care of with me. I currently work full time. I have a very flexible job that allows me to have enough time to care for your pet when needed. I have a large yard where your pet can play and explore. The house is large enough for my and your friends. My pets are very friendly and love having visitors.

“We reached out to Chris last minute to care for our pup Liam for just one night, and he was amazing! From the start, Chris was responsive and reassuring—he sent us updates and adorable pictures that showed Liam was not only safe but genuinely happy. Liam even made friends with Chris’ dogs, who were all his size, which was such a pleasant surprise since he hasn’t been around many other dogs before. It was so comforting to know he fit in so well and was being cared for in such a loving environment. Even though Chris is a bit of a drive for us, we’ll absolutely be using him again. Totally worth it!”

“Not only did I receive excellent communication from them, but I received lots of pictures of Rocco’s stay! It felt great knowing my dog was happy and playing while I was away. He enjoyed his stay so much he seemed to want to stay a little longer. I’m so glad that he found a home away from home with Mallory and Kelsey!”

About: I’m fairly new to pet care, but after spending 4 year as a care giver, I want to give my second passion a chance which is taking care of dogs and cats. Currently I’m working part-time, but I’m also looking to go full time in the near future. With that being said, I have a lot of time on my hands and fully committed to give your pups and cats unconditional love when needed! House Sitting I’m Available only on weekends. Drop-Ins and Walks I’m available from 2PM to 10PM on weekdays and weekends depending on my schedule! While for boarding I’m currently unable to I will always no matter what have a good ear and eye out for any animal at all times. For walks a leash will be on at all times. For both drop-ins and walks, I will always make sure that any animal is healthy and happy before doing any tasks in doors or outdoors.

She sent me pictures each day with updates on how my dog was doing, and it was one thing I didn’t have to worry about while I was away on a trip. I would definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I've not professionally trained any pet, but I've trained every pet I've had for life, love, respect as a member of my home. Every pet has to know the boundaries so that we can live in peace and harmony with each other4. Once they learn what is and isn't acceptable, there is mutual love and respect in the house. Since I retired, I'm home most of the day except for appointments or errands. I doggie sat my grand doggie for my son quite often. Starting out, I prefer to care for pets in my home. I live in a Condo. I don't have a yard, but I do have an unfenced in Courtyard right in front of my steps. Before my son's dog, passed away last year, I used to take her to several different parks for walks as well. She also loved long rides. We walked at the National Harbour, Yards Park, Tucker's Park, and the DC Warf. While she was with me, I'd send videos to my son of how she was doing and our activities, especially while he was on travel or vacation.

About: I've taken responsibility of many dogs since childhood, including pups and seniors, disabilities, and rescue dogs. I like to make dogs feel as happy and loved as one can be. My weekly routine is school only. As a graduating senior of 2027, I have an early release schedule that allows me to give your animal extra attention. I have a big-fenced backyard aswell as the necessities to care for your animal. I am ready to spend time with any animal to cater to not only their needs, but especially their spoiled wants.

Lindsay took wonderful care of Molly during her 17-night stay! She sent pictures while we were away and thoughtfully checked with us before offering Molly peanut butter on a lick mat. She even sent Molly home with a fresh bag of Bocce’s cookies, which was such a sweet touch. We really appreciated her communication and the personal attention she gave Molly. Thank you, Lindsay!

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

There are 6,920 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Cheltenham. About 91% of Cheltenham sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

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.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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 .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
