About: Hello! If you’re looking for a caregiver who combines deep personal love for animals with professional medical awareness, you’ve found the right spot. I know that pets aren’t just animals—they’re family—and I treat every dog and cat in my care with the exact same love, patience, and vigilance I’d give my own. My Background & Experience Clinical Insight & Safety: My journey in pet care includes a full year working on the ground at Friendship Hospital for Animals in Washington, DC. Working in a top-tier veterinary hospital environment taught me how to read animal body language, handle pets safely and gently, stay calm under pressure, and quickly spot if a pet is feeling under the weather. Long-Term Personal Care: For over 6 years, I’ve been the go-to sitter for a sweet Yorkie, managing daily routines, feeding, walks, and tons of cuddle time. That long-term experience taught me how important consistency, routine, and clear communication are for both pets and their parents. What You Can Count On: Peace of Mind: You’ll get clear, daily updates and plenty of photos so you always know your pet is happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Specialized Care: Thanks to my hospital experience, I’m comfortable following precise dietary routines, administering medications, or accommodating special senior/small-dog needs. A Calm, Nurturing Environment: Whether your dog is an energetic explorer or a quiet couch potato, I adapt my approach to make them feel comfortable and secure. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion! Feel free to send me a message to arrange a Meet & Greet or ask any questions. My Daily Schedule Because I work from home 4 days a week, your pet will enjoy almost constant company throughout the day! I only go into an office once a week, so my weekday routine revolves primarily around being at home and attentive to my pet guests. I do workout throughout the week, but my workout routine is completely flexible—I always prioritize feeding schedules and morning walks before or after depending on your pet’s needs. Weekends vary, so feel free to reach out with your dates and we can coordinate! Safety, Trust, & Home Setup Outdoor Space: Located in a dog-friendly neighborhood with widespread grassy areas and safe walking routes for daily exercise and potty breaks. Indoor Setup: Generous living room space for relaxing and a dedicated basement area. I have ample space for temporary crating if requested or needed for safe management. Clinic-Level Standards: Double-checking leashes/harnesses before stepping outside, maintaining strict door-awareness to prevent bolting, and recognizing early signs of pet stress or discomfort.
“Crystal was absolutely fantastic! From the start, she did a thorough meet and greet and was incredibly friendly and clearly passionate about caring for dogs. I felt completely at ease trusting her with my senior dog. Throughout the stay, she sent frequent updates with pictures and detailed descriptions, which I really appreciated. My dog looked so happy, especially getting to socialize with other dogs. I would highly recommend Crystal to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“She was very nice and friendly. This was taz’s First time without us and he did amazing . She sent updates, videos and pictures and he looked so happy. I would highly recommend her if you need a dog sitter . I give her 5 stars”
“🤗My dog was so comfortable at Alejandro’s. Alejandro sent daily pics of Georgie’s visit. I will definitely use this sitter again. I was able to enjoy my trip, knowing my Georgie was in good hands.🐶”
“Rena is an amazing sitter. She is great with communication and tending to your dog’s everyday needs. I received constant pictures and notifications throughout my trip. I will definitely book again in the future.”
“Roxsand was wonderful from start to finish! She accepted my request for weekend boarding and immediately made me feel comfortable. When I met her and her pups, it truly felt like a house full of fun and love. We did a meet and greet beforehand, and she explained scheduling and routines. She even offered daycare prior to the boarding so my little guy could get familiar, which I really appreciated. She took the time to ask thoughtful questions about my dog and his routine. I mentioned that my baby usually sleeps with me, and she was more than willing to let him sleep in her room—something that meant a lot to me. During the stay, Roxsand kept me updated with plenty of messages and photos, and she was always responsive and reassuring whenever I had my little anxious questions, or comments, hehehe. It was also comforting knowing my pup had her adorable dogs and family members to play with and keep him company. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would absolutely book with Roxsand again.”
“My girls enjoyed their stay. They came home happy and ready to go again. I highly appreciate Dasia keeping up with my senior's eye drops to include logging when she received them.”
“Tanita and Terrence always do a stellar job taking care of our husky. Their communication, videos and pics are always reassuring and frequent. We’re very grateful to have their care, services, and support as a resource so our mind can be at ease while we’re traveling. Thank you Tanita and Terrence!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our pup Coco! Taylor took such great care of Coco, especially knowing she experiences separation anxiety. They made her feel right at home, gave her lots of love and attention, and kept us updated throughout her stay with pictures and videos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I highly recommend Taylor and would absolutely book with her again! 🐾❤️”
About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid and wanted to turn my love into my career so I started vet tech school. I work at a boarding facility so I’m no stranger to messes. I’m experienced with training young pups, senior care, and giving medications. I work part time currently, so my availability is pretty flexible and will have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets. I have an unfenced yard, but the neighborhood is about a mile one way so they’ll have plenty of space to take walks. I also live close by a dog park that we can visit if they need a little extra space to run around. I have a dog and a cat but my cat will only be limited to my room.
“First stay with Cayla and she was amazing! Very professional and pleasant energy. Phantom was happy upon drop-off and happy upon pick-up so that let me know that Phantom was well taken care of. Definitely looking fwd to re-booking in the future.”
“Michelle was awesome. She sent photos every day and answered any questions I had. Zoey was happy and healthy when I picked her up. It was Zoey's first three-night stay away from home and it went very well!”
“Renea and her son were amazing with Quavo! They kept me updated, made me feel comfortable while I was away, and most importantly treated him with so much care and patience. Quavo can be particular at times, and I could tell she genuinely took the time to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for. She was communicative, reliable, and very easy to work with from start to finish. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their dog.”

I also foster cats and kittens and have experience with shy, fearful, reactive, and feral animals.

I offer drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. I understand the importance of consistency and will always keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

Communication is important to me, so you can expect regular updates and pictures during every visit.
“Excellent boarder! They made our older dog feel welcome and right at home. Their dog was a perfect companion and friendly too. Would certainly use again and highly reccomend.”
About: I love and respect life. I have a Morkie girl dog myself and she is well taken care of. I couldn't imagine anyone harming her and I feel that way about all life. I have high integrity and I'm a trustworthy human. Your small family member 😉 will be well taken cared of. I have tremendous flexibility which opens room for me to be a fur baby caregiver. We will have play time, naps, potty breaks, and exercise. I have crates if needed, a play area and my baby girl "Morkie" to keep your fur baby company. We will go for walks and play.
“Very pleased with how thoughtful and caring Katelyn and Blaze were with our dog. Katelyn provides frequent communication, photos and video. I highly recommend and will surely be back.”
“Anika was absolutely amazing. The care and concern provided for my baby was out of this world. Mocha thoroughly enjoyed being spoiled and having a ball with everyone in the home. I was really appreciative of Anika's consistent communication and check ins. The photos and videos were the highlight of my day while I was away. I don't trust my baby with many, but my heart was completely at ease while she was in Anika's care. Ever grateful. We will definitely use her services in the future. Thank you 💕”

The perfect fit! Bianca and her family welcomed my pup in their beautiful home and treated her like she was their own. Their dog Maggie was the perfect playmate and I came home with one happy tired dog. It feels so good knowing when I travel Harper now has loving and fun place to go. Thank you so much Bianca ❤️
This was Vesper and Naraa’s first overnight stay away from us, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! It was obvious from the start that they were in caring, capable hands. She treated them like they were her own, sent thoughtful photo updates throughout their stay, and made sure they felt right at home, even letting them sleep in bed with her. She has a securely fenced yard and a friendly dog that ours got along with wonderfully. Before pickup, she even took them for a walk so they came home happy, tired, and ready for a nap. Knowing they were so well cared for gave us real peace of mind. We will definitely be booking with her again, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly treat their dogs like family.

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 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 Meet & Greet.
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. 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
