“Kelly and Maurice are first rate and the best. They took care of our Mr . Biggie and did a fabulous job. They have a great system of walking and caring for the dogs. We got lots of pictures and videos. Do not hesitate in using Kelly and Maurice. We definitely will be using them again.”
“My Puppy really enjoyed being spoiled by George with allowing him to lay on the bed...lol George was really great with my puppy... he provided text messages and videos of my puppy playing with his two dogs that he got along with. He was very professional and caring as well. I highly recommend him!”
“Amelia is very kind and communicative. She was able to send me updates and photos throughout the duration of my dog’s stay with her. Highly recommended and would use her services again!”
“Lindsay took such great care of my pup, Marley, over the holidays! She went above and beyond getting Marley a toy (her new favorite) for Christmas, making adorable ornaments, replacing a sweater that got damaged, and sending daily picture and video updates. In every photo, Marley looked so happy and well entertained, and it gave me complete peace of mind knowing she was truly loved and treated like family. I’m so grateful for the care, thoughtfulness, and communication, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can fully trust!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for friends and neighbors for the past 5 years. I absolutely love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own! 🐾❤️ Our family homeschools, so there’s almost always someone home. Your dog will be welcomed as part of our family, with plenty of attention, love, and companionship. They’ll rarely have to be home alone 😊 We have a Boston Terrier who is used to having other dogs around and does well sharing her space with them. I keep dogs on a leash when we go outside since we don’t have a fenced-in yard, and I take them out multiple times throughout the day for potty breaks and fresh air. When I need to leave the house, I crate the dogs for their safety and peace of mind. I want every pet staying with us to feel comfortable, cared for, and part of the family!
“Bianca is very great with my doge and they are so comfortable with her. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a great sitter. I have used her on several occasions and never had a problem.”
“I was very nervous about leaving my baby for my vacation for 8 days but Lynette assured me everything was going to be ok. She sent pictures daily and kept me updated. I felt more relaxed each day I was away from my baby. I will definitely let my baby stay with Lynette and Vincent in the future.”
“Laura was awesome! Chacco had a blast during his weekend sleepover and loved hanging out with the other pups. She took great care of him, and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. He came home happy and tired—always a good sign! Definitely booking with her again.”
“Mya cared for our dog (Harley) like she was her own! Harley has anxiety when we leave her but she was clean, calm and relaxed when we picked her back up. Mya sent us photos and communicated with us consistently while we were away so we felt at ease that our girl was well cared for in our absence. We will be booking with Mya again soon!”
“Tina was a fantastic sitter for our 10-year old pup! She is clearly a “dog person” at heart and set us at ease right away. Snowball settled in right away and acted confident and comfortable with Tina. She took him for walks and played with toys and sent us cute photos each day! It was evident Tina took excellent care of him! Tina was also quick to respond and communicated well throughout our booking. Will definitely book with Tina again!”
“I can’t recommend Zulu enough! She took such wonderful care of my dog while I was away. She was so attentive and sent updates, making sure my furry baby felt happy and comfortable the entire time. I’ll definitely reach out to her again the next time I need a sitter.”
“This was my first time using this type of service to board my senior dog, and I must say that it was a blessing to find Sarah. She cared for Princess as if she was her own. Sarah provided me with status updates and went the extra mile. Will definitely use her services in the future. Thanks Sarah! You are the best!”
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.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! They welcomed our pup for a last-minute weekend stay and gave him such a comfortable, happy place to settle in. Their dog was a wonderful playmate, and the frequent updates and lots of photos made it easy to relax knowing he was having a great time. They were communicative throughout and incredibly accommodating as our schedule kept changing. We’re so grateful for the care and flexibility, and would happily book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Lovely couple with a baby and a toddler. Buffy had to warm up to Parker, their German Shepherd but I hear it went well. Tyler and wife watched Buffy on a holiday, July 4th. They were very gracious when I requested an itinerary change. I felt like they were really attuned to Buff-dog. Will definitely ask again for their assistance.Highly recommend.”
“Kerry and her family took amazing care of my dog Briggs while I was out of town. I got loads of adorable pictures, and he was returned groomed and fluffy with a new bandana. I highly recommend them and will be reaching out again when I travel.”
“Lana and her husband took amazing care of our dog, Athena, for two weeks while we were traveling, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They’re wonderful, caring people with an awesome yard, and we felt completely at ease knowing Athena was in such great hands! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“~ I highly recommend Emily! She was amazing with my boy Blackjack. My 1st time with Emily & will definitely be a return customer! Emily sent pics with a update every evening.. Sent my boy home with a cute scarf & a brand new toy, bc my boy fell in love with the same kind of toy that her dogs were playing with & she said we have extras & he loves it so much.. Emily is the SWEETEST!!”
“Anika did an excellent job with my baby, October. She communicated with me throughout his stay with texts, photos, videos. October wasn’t quite ready to leave her, which makes me feel the love and care she has for my furbaby. I will definitely be using her in the future.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dares Beach
Lindsay is fantastic! It was my first time boarding my dog, Bilbo, and I wasn’t sure how he’d do because he’s prone to separation anxiety. Bilbo had an absolute BLAST with Lindsay and her family! He played with her dog, Zoomy, and he got so much love and attention from everyone in the home. Lindsay texted me daily updates with photos and info. Bilbo looked so happy and relaxed in the photos; I could tell he was in excellent hands. When I picked him up, he was in a great mood and wanted to stay and play! We will 100% book with Lindsay again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Dares Beach home-away-from-home, 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 Dares Beach.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Dares Beach 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 , 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 .
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.
