“Kathy was amazing. I would get constant updates which made my trip a lot more comfortable. Much better experience than dog hotels. I would highly recommend Kathy.”

“Piero and his family did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs. They were willing to accommodate my dogs’ feeding and potty habits, but I also trusted them to do what would work best and what fit with the household’s vibe while my dogs were their guests. Communication was great, and they sent photos and videos of the dogs’ stay. Would definitely use Piero for boarding or grooming again!”

“Todd is wonderful for boarding our dogs. Although Pepper, the male dog, is scared of everything due to his trauma of being a street dog in Oman, Pepper became comfortable with Todd in less than 10 minutes. Todd took our dogs for a walk to the park next to his house almost every day and our dogs were having a good time walking in the forest. Our dogs love to go out in the backyard. Todd's fenced backyard gave a nice playground for our dogs. Thank you, Todd !!”

“Brandon and his whole family were taking great care of Amy, she got loads of cuddling and playing. We got photos regularly showing that she enjoyed her time there. And Amy had a great time with River (great dog company, a good girl). We will definitely book again!”


“Nathalie is excellent! Highly Recommend! I booked her for the first time over the weekend and she exceeded all my expectations! Communication was fantastic from the very beginning — she’s super easy to talk to and replied to all my messages extremely quickly, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She sent lots of photos and updates every day, so I never felt out of the loop. It was clear she genuinely loves dogs and is very responsible. I’m already planning to book her again for our next trip. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter, look no further — she’s fantastic! Thank you so much! 🐾”
“Carolina was absolutely fantastic with my pup! I received numerous updates throughout and could see he was having such a fantastic time. Will definitely use again in the future!!”

“Mindy has been very accommodating and reliable with our 2 golden retrievers. Previous planned dog sitter cancelled 12 hours before, Mindy onboarded them in no time and they felt home right away. I do recommend her wo. Any doubts”

“Wenyan was a superb host for our dog. We’ll definitely be using her again. Our dog is often very uncomfortable at kennels, so we asked Wenyan to keep her for 9 days and our pup had a wonderful time. Wenyan is super communicative and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend her.”


“I highly recommend Robin! She was very communicative, providing and quite clear. It was a great surprise to receive more than one photo of my dog, cockatoo under her care! This was my dog's first time boarding and we will certainly use her service for sure!”

“Tatiana is the best. She takes such good care of my sweet girl and sends lots of pics and videos too. My pup gets social time with other dogs and a cat and she is great to work with. Great communication!”

“Andrea and Michael couldn’t have been sweeter to our little pup. They kept us up to date with pictures and gave our little guy his daily medications. We could tell that he enjoyed his time there immensely. We have used other sitters but have never been happier than we were with Andrea and Michael. We would not hesitate to use them again. Highly recommend.”

“Brenda did a fantastic job watching our Shiba Inu while we were away on a long 2 week vacation! He was happy and healthy upon our return and she was also able to flawlessly give him the vital medication he needs everyday. Brenda also communicated promptly throughout the sitting whenever we checked in. Thank you for taking care of our dog so thoughtfully!”

“We left our two Beagles with Mindy for 3 nights, and we couldn’t be happier with the care they received. From the initial meet-and-greet, it was clear Mindy loves animals and knows how to handle energetic pups. She sent daily updates with photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away—seeing our dogs happy, well-fed, walked made all the difference. Both dogs came home relaxed, and excited to see us, with no signs of stress. Thanks Mindy!”

“This was my first time leaving Jack with someone else and Marco and Margaret made it sooo easy and comfortable!! I got daily photos and a video of him playing!! He had such a great time!! I am sure Jack will be visiting in the future!! Thank you guys soooo much!!”


“We had a wonderful experience with Camilo and his wife. They were reliable, caring and attentive. They took good care of our dog while we were away. Communication was excellent and we really appreciated the regular updates with photos.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Darnestown
Rosie has been going to Sophia for several years. She is a rescue and we could never leave her if Sophia was not available. She is professional, reliable, flexible and cares deeply about your dog. She has a large backyard and walks the dog during the day. She’s the best!

Todd took great care of both dogs for the week. He shared plenty of pictures of them on walks and inspecting his fenced yard. Particularly appreciated him overseeing the dogs eating since we were working on one not grazing the other’s food. Todd was quick to respond to my questions. Pups were healthy and happy when picked up; wonderful time together.

Tracey and her family are so caring and attentive, I highly recommend them and will be using them again! My anxious girl got sick while I was out of the country and Tracey was very communicative with me describing her symptoms. She administered her medications which led to a speedy recovery. I am very discerning who I leave my pup with, which is why I give Tracey 5 stars!

We left our 6 yr old golden doodle with Jayendri for 4 days. She managed him very well specially his food as he is a picky eater. The best part of leaving my pup with Jayendri was that I got transparent updates about food and walks and even if the walk schedules were modified. This is something I have not seen with other sitters. Gibbs came back happy and I would love to leave him back again when we go on holidays.

James, Nicolette, and their children took excellent care of our nine month old Portuguese Water Dog puppy. Lizzy was treated as part of their loving family and had plenty of exercise and attention. My wife and I received constant updates and photos. I highly recommend them and would use them again without hesitation in the future.

Andrii was really good with our cats and they looked incredibly peaceful in every picture he sent to us. He was also super responsive to any messages from us and even helped carry all of our cat gear in and out. We would definitely use Andrii again if he's available.

Sabina takes excellent care of our dog! She follows our instruction exactly and updates us daily with pictures. She also gives lots of attention and does lots of activities with Saska. He’s definitely very happy at her place! We would not hesitate to choose her again in the future!

Sure! Here’s a polished review you can use: --- We couldn’t be happier with Katrina as our dogsitter! She is incredibly communicative and keeps us updated every step of the way. It’s clear she has a lot of experience. Our dogs warmed up to her right away and are always relaxed and happy when we return. Being able to go on vacation with peace of mind, knowing our dogs are getting the absolute best care and attention, is priceless. Highly recommended!

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.
