“Evvery took such great care of our dog Freya. I could tell through pictures and videos that Freya settled in comfortably. Evvery sent updates and pictures each day. I’m so happy Freya had a home away from home while my family was traveling. Knowing your pet is well taken care of is such a relief.”
“This is the second time we leave our fur babies with Josh and Andres and are so happy that we did so. Josh and Andres were so accommodating as we booked them last minute after other plans fell through. They were very responsive and helpful. One of our dogs is not the easiest to manage as she can be very alpha and sometimes a bit unfriendly. But that did not scare Josh or Andres who were very comfortable with managing her and the situations . That in itself is miracle and allowed us to enjoy our trip fully . They take care of our babies so well and share updates and pictures as needed. They are great pet hosts! The best we’ve had!”
“Ashley was great with our Golden Retriever Luna over the weekend! She sent us many photos and videos and took her for daily walks. Having kids around was an extra since our dog loves playing with children! Definitely recommend her :)”
“Masha and her family took the best care of Hoagie!! They handled all of her quirks and needs, and gave her such a fun long weekend of hikes and snuggles. We would highly recommend them, and hope they’ll watch hoagie again soon’! Thank you so much, Masha!!”
“Jason did a fantastic job taking care of my dog and I would recommend him 100%. Jason was highly communicative and I received many picture and video updates. My pup had a great time going on plentiful walks with him. I look forward to booking with Jason again in the future!”
“Samantha is truly a gem and cared for my dog like her own. She sent regular pics and videos. My dog felt at ease for 5 days with her. I wholeheartedly recommend her!!”
“Fantastic time was had by all! Brianna is a warm soul who knows dogs, detailed, and observant! I looked forward to her message updates and pictures of the pups while i was away on a trip.”
“What’ a wonderful experience. Oreo had a great time and was treated like a prince. Not sure he wanted to come home!! :) really appreciated all the communication and care. Will definitely rebook in the future.”
“Churro stayed with Viona and John for a week and had the best time. They have a big backyard where he got to run around and play, became best buddies with their Golden Retriever, Maxie, and also had so much fun with their kids. What we really appreciated was how comfortable they made us feel while we were away. They clearly know dogs and have a lot of experience, and they kept us updated every day with pictures and videos. Churro got lots of walks and attention. Honestly, he was spoiled in the best way. We could tell he was happy and well cared for the whole time. We’d definitely book with Viona and John again!”
“Huge thank‑you to Aster for taking amazing care of our senior girl. As she gets older, leaving her is never easy, the photo updates showing her mingling, napping, and getting plenty of petting on her pupcation gave us total peace of mind. Seeing her relaxed, happy, and so well cared for meant everything to us. Thank you for taking such good care of our big girl. We appreciate it so much!”
“This was our first time boarding Maple so we were very nervous and anxious. Maple also had a last minute health issue come up the day we were to drop her off. Andy was great, he provided daily photos and constant updates and was very responsive! We also really appreciate how accommodating he was with the last minute medicine that Maple needed to take”
“Andrea is the perfect sitter! I appreciated her flexibility with drop off and pick up times and her very calm, personable and welcoming demeanor. Sarge loved being at her house and was already exploring the house by the time I left. Andrea made sure he had all the comforts of home and even got him to sleep in a dog bed that she provided. When I picked him up, he was very content and in no hurry to go home. I have already booked another stay, as I know Sarge will be in good care with Andrea.”
“I cannot recommend Stephanie enough! From the moment I dropped him off, Stephanie kept in constant contact with me, sending me updates and photos of Jax having the time of his life. I felt completely at ease leaving Jax in her capable hands. And when I picked him up, Jax was happy, healthy, and had clearly been well taken care of. Stephanie went above and beyond to make sure Jax had everything he needed - from plenty of playtime to lots of cuddles and attention. If you're looking for a Rover who will give your furry friend the love and care they deserve, look no further than Stephanie. She's simply the best!”
“Link enjoyed his stay. The videos of him having zoomies don’t lie. Picked him up and he was tuckered. Thank you Curtis, Lindsey and family for treating Link as one of your own. Will definitely book you guys for future times when Link can’t travel with us.”
“Such great pictures and comments the whole time our dog was being watched by Brittanie and Ryan. My dog seemed so relaxed and absolutely loved the yard that he could run around in, along with having some other dogs to play with. Highly recommend and we will definitely be using them again!”
“Melissa took excellent care of our Teddy! Will definitely use her again for future bookings. Constant updates and photos showed just how much she cares and truly appreciate how Teddy was taken care of!”
“My two French bulldogs made themselves right at home with Piero and his family. They treated my doggos with great care and attention. It was also a huge plus that someone was always home with my girls. Piero was great with sending pictures and keeping me updated. It was super easy and I will be using him again to watch my dogs. 100 percent recommend - a wonderful sitter!”
“Diana and her family took wonderful care of our Goldendoodle for six days. It was our first time leaving him with a pet sitter, so we were quite nervous. From the moment we met Diana, her warm, friendly and caring personality immediately put us at ease. She kept us updated throughout his stay with lots of photos, videos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that she cared for our dog as if he were her own. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend Diana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!”

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.
