“Kelly and Maurice took such wonderful care of our little Jayda that I was worried she would not want to come home! Would leave any of our babies with them without hesitation. Got lots of photos and videos and excellent communication. THANK YOU so much G Family!”
“Aaron & Tia took great care of my Frenchie Bella. She had an initial knee injury that required crate rest and very limited activity and their willingness to accommodate our needs at the last minute for an extended (18 day) stay was beyond amazing. After the meet and greet with Aaron and their amazing soon I felt even more at ease. Prior to her stay, Bella was stung in the eye and was required eye drops in addition to the knee injury. Aaron wasn't phased by the additional special needs. While on travel in Asia, I received almost daily pics and a video. I could tell she was having a great time. She also needed to lose a few pounds to help with her knee injury and Aaron and Tia returned Bella in tip top shape and a few pounds lighter. She is off of her pain meds for her knee and her eye is healed. I can't thank them enough. When I met with them they only had a few reviews and I wasn't deterred. This is proof that the # of reviews does not determine the type of love and care your pup receives. I will be using their services again and again very soon.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and now I have 3 of my own! I have a pug, and 2 basset hounds. I'm experienced in all size dogs. (I previously had 2 english mastiffs that crossed the rainbow bridge) I also have chickens and ducks. I worked at a retirement community for years.. so I'm understanding and kind towards our wiser elders who made need help with their furbabies. I'm a homemaker so I'm almost always available for your pet care needs. I'm available to sit and play with them to your hearts comfort. All 3 of my dogs are inside dogs who sleep in bed with me. 🤣 Furbabies are like children to me. I truly believe they have souls and they deserve all the love in the world.
“Chris and his wife are amazing! They really made our dog feel at home and like part of the family. When I had a schedule change, they were easy to work with. He was very communicative and nice. Definitely booking with him again.”
“Marta was fantastic with our 6-month-old Basset Hound, Charlie!! It was my first time ever leaving a pet with anyone and she made it so easy. I received multiple updates each day with pictures, videos and text. It was great to see him with his new friends having such a good time! When I picked Charlie up, five days later, I told her that I never worried about him the entire trip. We missed him, but knew that he was in good hands! I highly recommend Marta and will definitely take Charlie back when needed! Thank you Marta for everything!”
“Lindsay was just who we needed to care for our boy Migo! I can tell she cares very deeply about the animals entrusted to her, and Migo was no exception. Even as an anxious dog, his short vacation with them left him a l little bummed out to be leaving! For a caring and devoted animal lover to watch over your own, look no further! Lindsay truly is the best of the best and I am forever grateful for her. 💙”
“Bianca is a great sitter. She is very accommodating and considerate of Lowdown's needs. He really enjoys spending time with Bianca, Pepper and the rest of her family. ”
“Katelyn provided the most amazing care for our puppy!! He was spoiled with multiple walks, many treats, and tons of snuggles while we were away for a long weekend. He became friends with their sweet husky as well. Can’t wait for him to stay with her family again soon!! Thank you!!”
“Carlie took such wonderful care of our 11 year old Golden. She and her children spoiled him with all kinds of love and attention. I felt very comfortable leaving him while we were on a week long vacation.”
“James did a great job caring for Ellie! I feel confident she was well taken care of based on how comfy she looked in all the photos. He has a great location with his fenced in back yard and beautiful neighborhood for walks!”
“Sabrina is great! From the time I entered her house, I knew my dog would feel tended to and right at home. She’s so sweet and genuinely loves dogs. After picking my pup up, it’s like she didn’t miss a beat at all. Looking forward to engaging with Sabrina regularly - what a find!”
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.
“Finding Vanessa and Gio was a godsend. We got our fur baby a month before expected and had travel plans we could not change. We were very nervous leaving him after only 10 days with us; but, they put all fear to rest with daily updates, pics, & videos. They followed his schedule and helped with potty and crate training. We can tell he felt safe, cared for, and loved. We’d recommend Vanessa and Gio without hesitation.”
“Corey watched my baby for 3 days. He stayed in contact and provided daily updates and photos. Most importantly, he treated Blaze like his own baby which was comforting. I would definitely use Corey’s services again!”
“Mark provided excellent attention and care to our Koda. He was responsive, and effectively communicated throughout our fur baby's stay during the busy holiday weekend. He provided several photos of Koda enjoying outdoor play time with his new fur buddies. We highly recommend Mark and will definitely use him again for our future boarding needs!”
“We’re so grateful for Danielle! She took amazing care of our dogs, Skye and Java, while we were away. She stayed in regular communication, sent plenty of updates and photos, and gave us such peace of mind. It was clear our babies were comfortable and well-loved. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring pet sitter!”
“Anthony and his wife were absolutely wonderful! I immediately felt a sense of comfort when meeting them and they were able to accommodate my last minute booking. They took such great care of my almost 2 year old Maltipoo. Their pup, Moonie is also so very sweet and well mannered! I received consistent updates and photos during my trip, Demi had such a great time! Thank you for being so kind, patient and opening your home to her! We will definitely be back!”

Hannah is seriously the BEST dog sitter ever\! 🥹 She has been taking care of my Yoshi girl for over a year now, and I couldn’t be happier with her\.

We will definitely continue booking with her\! Highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby! ❤️
Hannah took perfect care of our pets while we were out of the country for two weeks. She's a professional animal care giver, so more than likely your pets will be better off with her than with you. I know mine were. I have complete trust in her abilities. Didn't have to worry about anything. I highly, highly recommend her.
Hannah was absolutely amazing. My dog got ill while I was out of the country and she went above and beyond to make sure my dog was healthy and happy, and kept up clear communication throughout the entire process. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again and will recommend her to anyone I know looking for a quality sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 5,822 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Deale. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
94% of sitters in Deale can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Deale 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 Deale.
Tip: 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 Deale 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.
