“Charvé was a life saver with a last minute request when my other sitter arrangements changed. She was warm and welcoming and she kept me updated. My dog also had a blast meeting new friends.”
About: I have owned pets most of my life. I have extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and many other animals. I am also great with plants. I have been pet sitting outside of Rover for many years. I have a very sweet pit mix and do not discriminate against any breed! I understand the importance of trust and communication while allowing someone to care for your pet! I will always go above and beyond to give extra love to your furry friend, not just take care of basic needs. I keep a well stocked pet cabinet and bring supplies with me for sits, drop-ins, and walks. Anxiety, tummy issues, allergies, discomfort, first aid, grooming, enrichment- you name it, I'm prepared. I've handled several medical emergencies. I take the responsibility seriously. You can trust your family member will be properly cared for in any situation. Any concerns or changes in routine will be addressed with you immediately. *If interested in boarding please note that I do have a 66 pound Pit mix. He previously lived with another dog, a cat, and two toddlers. He is very friendly with absolutely zero aggression. He will not stand up for himself. I would be happy to do a meet and greet in my home or on neutral ground. If your pet is not compatible with large male dogs, please do not request this service. Alternatively, I would be happy to pet sit or stop in for longer visits. I work from home part time with very flexible hours. I can easily fit any needed pet care into my routine. I am up and available at most hours, early morning and late at night included. I do not board more than 2 pets at a time. Though I do not personally crate, I will if it's the routine of your pet and the crate is provided. My home is equipped with baby gates and large bedrooms so I am prepared to separate without your furry friend feeling too cooped up, should the need arise. I do not have a fenced backyard. Walks will be given a minimum of 3 times a day. 4-5 walks is my normal routine, though I am happy to follow your pets cues or their routine. My neighborhood is pet friendly with walking trails and lots of shaded areas. I have a deck with a large umbrella and dog beds, perfect if your pet likes to sunbathe as mine does!
“Our pupper enjoyed his day stay and really got to stretch his legs in such a large yard. We received regular updates and felt at ease leaving him in such capable hands.”
“Jasmine was so great with Willow! She took her to the dog park, was flexible with my schedule, and even washed Willow’s bedding when she happy peed on it. Will definitely use Jasmine in the future!”
“Marta was terrific!! She sent us pictures throughout our puppy’s stay with her and even sent him home with some of her homemade treats. Definitely will be sending our puppy to her again in the future. 5/5 would recommend !”
“Absolutely wonderful ! Walked my dog twice .it was my first time using rover in a new state and Benjamin was a delight. I will be rebooking when I’m in the area again ! Thanks so much for taking such good care of my pup”
“Naya is AMAZING! My husband and I have a long commute and needed someone to take care of our pup during the way while we're at work. Before we found Naya, we were really concerned about leaving him somewhere else for so long during the day. But we really lucked out in finding Naya! Naya has her own 2 dogs and a huge backyard that our pup loves to play in! She takes him for walks, teaches him tricks, and helps us so much by training with him as well! Our pup comes home every day happy and tired, and is excited to go back in the morning. Naya is so attentive, caring, and loving to our pup and we feel so lucky that we found her!”
“Kacie was just great with our pup! Even though this was our first visit, they bonded quickly and I knew he was going to have a fun day. Walks, play date with another pup and a trip to the dog park - all things wonderful for an eager playful pup. I walked away as he walked in the house with Kacie. He was happy when I picked him up - perfect day in every way. Highly recommend Kacie - your pup will be in great hands. Plus, she’s so nice and super friendly!!”
“Alexis goes above and beyond to provide exceptional care for animals! My dog Teddy had a wonderful day with her! He was well looked after and I felt very at ease leaving him with her! Overall an outstanding experience and will definitely book with her again! Couldn’t give her enough thanks for providing such wonderful care!”
“Alex Z. was amazing! Very loving and caring while dog sitting for my 3 month old puppy. Her pets were loving and playful also. She took lots of pics and kept me updated with his activities throughout the day. Will definitely request her services again.”
“Sabrina and Ryan are wonderful with my dog Toby....He always loves visiting them and they take great care of him. They are also very flexible which I need and appreciate. :)”
“My puppy goes to daycare at Ashley's house once a week. Ashley takes really good care of my puppy and keeps me updated with photos and how things are going. She is also very quick to respond to my requests.”
About: If you're looking for someone who will care for your dog like family, you're in the right place. Dogs have been a part of my life for 20+ years, and caring for them is something I truly love. I've raised and cared for three of my own rescued dogs, Mumbles, Rose, and Benny. I have experience boarding dogs in my home, providing drop-in visits, potty breaks and dog walking for neighbors, and house-sitting for a special needs dog. I've also volunteered with multiple dog rescue groups and was a foster "fail" momma to the sweetest, most sensitive Staffy you could ever meet. Dogs are family and bring me so much joy. When your dog stays with me, my goal is simple: to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and right at home. I work from home and have flexible weekends, so your fur baby won't be left alone for long stretches. I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. Every dog is different, so their routine can be tailored to their individual needs and what they’re used to at home. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and well-being always come first. Your pet will be cared for in a quiet, calm home with minimal traffic, creating a peaceful environment where they can feel at ease. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets and homes, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your fur baby in someone else’s care. I will respect your dog’s routine, be attentive to their individual needs, and provide plenty of love and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Maggie had a great time having a calm day with Dana instead of staying home for our 3 year old daughter’s birthday party (with 12 other 3 year olds!) - Dana was really responsive and very responsible and Maggie was so happy!”
“Brittany is the seriously best! She took care of my 2 year old labradoodle, and it was clear from the photos that my dog was having the time of her life in her big backyard and welcoming environment. Thank you, Brittany!”

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Crownsville commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 4,459 sitters in Crownsville, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
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.
