“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 !!”

“Huron & Elise were great dog-sitters for my two guys! My schedule got a bit crazy and they were helpful and flexible in the drop off and pickup arrangements. The boys seemed very happy and I got lots of photos and videos while we were away. They have a fenced yard where the dogs could play and went on several outings. Will definitely use them again.”

“Based our last experience, with no hesitation, we booked a second stay with Wenyan. This time Mopsie had a even better time. We can tell by all the pics and videos Wenyan sent us every day. Mopsie had some skin allergy and had to take some medication. Wenyan took great care of her. She came back clean and happy. Her hair was smooth and soft from the daily grooming Wenyan gave her. We are so happy to have found this perfect vacation house for Mopsie!”

About: I’ve had my own pets in the past and I love all sorts of pets! It brings me serotonin to be with my furry friends! I’ve pet sat for my neighbors, friends, and family members! I will be working full time later this year and wanted to try out this fun side hustle to make extra cash and bring my serotonin levels up! My house has a big yard area! There’s a couple of parks nearby that are also perfect and I have a variety of pet snacks and toys!

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I grew up around a lot of dogs and cats. I hope neighbors and friends. Schedule I work Monday through Thursday from 7 AM to 4 PM. Outside of those hours, I’m generally available and have a flexible schedule for pet sitting. My husband is also able to help when needed, especially during my work hours. I’m happy to work with your pet’s schedule and provide reliable, loving care. I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay comfortable and keep their normal routine. I’m responsible, attentive, and respectful of your home and your pet’s space. I’ll follow all instructions you provide and make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for throughout the stay.

Poh was wonderful with our dog! You can tell she really knows what she's doing, which put us at ease right away. Her setup is adorable, and her own dogs are such gentle sweethearts. They got along great with Scooby and she truly made him part of the family. She sent photo updates daily so we always knew he was doing well. After seven days of boarding we picked up a very happy dog. We'd absolutely book with her again!

There are 8,235 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Derwood. About 91% of Derwood sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .

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. 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.

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, means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
