“Jessica did a wonderful job taking care of my fur baby! Maxwell doesn’t take to strangers in my presence so I was very nervous about leaving him for the weekend. Jessica assured me that he would be well taken care of, and he was! Jessica made sure to check in with me throughout the weekend and sent pics as well. Max returned happy and healthy! Thank you Jessica! I will definitely be contacting you again soon.”
“Sarah was great. My dog looked right at home & had lots of fun & snuggles. Sent great pics/updates. & was able to accommodate a last minute extra night due to flight delay. Def recommend!”
“Couldn’t recommend her more! She was incredibly kind, loving, communicative, and truly treated my dogs like they were her own. I felt completely at ease knowing they were so well cared for, and they had the absolute best time playing with her two sweet pups. When I came to pick them up, I’m pretty sure they would have happily stayed forever—which is probably the best review they could give! So grateful to have found someone I can trust with them and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Veronica did an excellent job with my pup Noah. I appreciate the pre-stay visit to meet her and her husband, it gave Noah a chance to sniff around and get comfortable in their home. When I dropped him off for his stay, he wasn’t nervous at all. Veronica is definitely a dog lover, and she took care of my little guy just like he was one of her own pups. Lots of socialization and play time, Lots of human love, Lots of update pictures and texts. I will definitely use her services again when traveling!”
“Im always nervous to drop off Adonis with anyone because he is very unpredictable meaning nervous. But Lia was great to him. Leaving for my daughter nationals so many miles away and she was great! Definitely will book again.”
“Liseth G was a life saver at the last minute. She took great care of my two energetic dogs on a short notice for 7 days due to a cancellation. She provided photos and videos of my dogs throughout my time away. She comes highly recommended and I will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Cal had a fantastic time with Anna and Christian! He came home happy, tired in the best way, and I can tell he felt cared for and loved while I was away. Anna and Christian updated me with pictures and notes about how he was doing, and I felt totally at ease while he was in their care. Highly recommended!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Rich and John!! My Covid pup is quite needy and particular, and Rich takes such good care of him. He truly cares about each pet and makes sure they get attention that’s tailored to their needs. He keeps me updated and sends photos, even making Apollo homemade healthy food when he wasn’t eating! And sleeping with him on the couch when he’s anxious. I hope everyone goes to Rich and John for true care and service for their pets, and even though it’s an hour drive I am happy to do it to have my pup happy and safe with people I trust!”
“Ended up needing a last minute sitter and Liz & Jeff were able to accommodate. Had great communication leading up to a meet and greet with our girl and their resident pups, and a few days later dropped off Goose for her stay. Super responsive, gave great updates and photos and videos galore for my girl. Knowledge with dogs overall and their interactions with people and animals was great! Their family and resident dogs were exactly what I’d want for someone watching my own while I’m away. Will definitely become a return client😊”
“Thank you Ms. Robin Tina seemed to have such a great time with you and it was great for her to be able to socialize with other dogs while she was there. Communication was excellent and I can tell you truly treated Tina as one of your own. I would recommend you to anyone!”
“Esi took such wonderful care of my dog. This was our first time leaving him with anyone except family and she provided pictures and feedback during his stay. We will be using her again for sure!!!!!”
“Sarah and Nick were amazing sitters for Milo and it shows. Milo’s attachment and body language showed complete trust and love for them when picking him up and it was clear that they absolutely loved him and treated him with care. They communicated and shared photos which kept us at peace knowing he was in good hands. Would definitely recommend.”

Sarah was wonderful with our dog Fern! I could tell that she felt right at home because she keeps trying to run into her door on walks after her weekend with Sarah and Nattie. It was particularly good that Sarah reached out with clarifying questions when Fern wasn't going potty as consistently in a new setting. I also appreciated periodic updates and photos. Thanks, Sarah!
Extremely friendly and reliable. I felt completely comfortable leaving Reagan there. We had a bad experience where a different sitter took us off of the app and then ghosted us after we paid and 30 minutes before drop off so we are wary of the sitters now but Rich has always seemed completely professional and calm. Great person and Reagan was very happy on the way in and out :)
Carrie was an amazing person to find to watch my little pup! My puppy was only 11 weeks old when we needed someone to watch him for the day and night and Carrie was caring and informative with him. Picture and video updates let me know he was happy and cared for. Definitely recommend her!
I am so incredibly grateful for Viviana! I have a very skittish, nervous, occasionally reactive dog who has grown to love Viviana and looks forward to being at her home. I was genuinely surprised to see how quickly my dog warmed up to Viviana and how comfortable she felt with her. I can finally travel and feel assured that my dog is safe, calm, happy and comfortable. Viviana is a life saver. I highly recommend!
This was the first time we trusted someone other than family or friends to watch our two dogs. Courtney sent text and picture updates daily. The dogs looked happy and content and that eased any worries we had! We will definitely use Courtney again. Thank you for taking such great care of Diesel and Ace!
Katherin was kind and communicative throughout my dog, Enzo’s, stay with her. We were visiting from Florida and he stayed at her home for 3 days while we stayed with friends who couldn’t have a dog at their house. I would highly recommend Katherin as a pet sitter!
Dawn took great care of our little dog Harper. Harper missed us and spent a lot of time whining. Dawn was great about remedying the situation by taking him for walks and giving him attention. When forgot to include his bed and Dawn was nice enough to provide him an old towel to lay on inside his crate!! I would both recommend and rebook!!
Makenzie was so great with my dog Wren! She was very communicative and kind and sent lots of pictures. Wren definitely loved making new friends with her! She also took amazing care of a scrape on Wrens nose that she got just before I dropped her off for boarding which I am so appreciative of! She was also super kind about scheduling changes!

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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 Dundalk 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 Dundalk home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Dundalk.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dundalk. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Dundalk 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 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.
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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
