About: I’ve been a dog owner and caring for dogs for years, and I genuinely enjoy having them as part of my everyday life. I currently have dogs of my own, so feeding, walks, playtime, exercise, and making sure everyone is comfortable and cared for are already part of my normal routine. I offer dog boarding, doggy daycare, walks, and drop-in visits. Depending on your dog’s needs and energy level, their time with me can include walks, supervised outdoor play, exercise, bathroom breaks, enrichment, or simply relaxing and getting plenty of attention. I have a fully fenced yard that gives dogs room to safely get outside and play throughout the day. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I understand that every dog has its own routine, so I take the time to learn about feeding schedules, medications, crate preferences, sleeping arrangements, behaviors, triggers, and anything else that helps your dog feel comfortable. Since I have dogs of my own, introductions with visiting dogs are handled carefully and interactions are supervised. My schedule gives me plenty of flexibility to provide attentive care throughout the week, including boarding and daycare. When a dog is staying with me, they aren’t just being left somewhere while their family is away. I make time for interaction, exercise, outdoor breaks, and rest throughout the day while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else. I’ll treat your dog the way I’d want someone to treat mine—with patience, attention, affection, and respect for the instructions you provide. I’ll also send regular photos and updates so you can see how your dog is doing and enjoy your time away without wondering whether they’re okay. Pet care already fits naturally into my daily routine because I have dogs of my own. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding. I’m active and enjoy getting dogs outside for walks and playtime, while also making sure they have plenty of time to relax. I can follow your dog’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and bedtime routine as closely as possible so being away from home feels comfortable and familiar. Safety is my priority whenever someone trusts me with their dog. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely get outside for supervised play, exercise, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. I also have dogs of my own, so introductions with visiting dogs are always handled carefully and supervised. I take time to learn each dog’s personality, routine, triggers, feeding schedule, and any special instructions. I’ll follow your preferences for walks, crates, medications, sleeping arrangements, and interaction with other pets. You’ll also receive regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and being treated like part of the family.
About: Hello, I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16. Mainly my own and my neighbors animals. I have had nothing but good reviews from them all! I currently do online school and am home all the time because of that. This leaves a lot of quality time I can spend with your animals. I have a single dog at home that is very friendly to keep your doggies company. If you have specific needs for your animals then I will make sure to follow them no matter what.
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for about 10 years now, through my friends, family, neighbors and my own 2 puppies! I’m a college athlete who’s very active, so I’m happy to run/play and keep energetic dogs exercised while also making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for! Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, caring for my own two dogs! However, I’m a college student now, who lives an hour away from home, but I’m back for weekends and have plenty of free time to care for pets! I provide a safe, fun environment for pets. I have a fenced yard for running around outside, and two friendly dogs who would love to make friends! I closely supervise pets and will follow all instructions/special requests strictly from owners!
About: I was an owner of a 8yr old Cane Corso who has now passed away from bone cancer. She has had 2 litters whom I cared for. 7 puppies each litter for 8 weeks was such an amazing experience! We have 4 sons and she was always attached to our 3rd son’s hip. We also rescued a beautiful cat, Misaki, who is now 1 1/2. My youngest son begged us for her and she has claimed me. She is the most sweetest thing and loves to cuddle. She follows me everywhere which we should have named her Shadow. If I could bring all the animals into my home I truly would! Myself and my youngest boys ages 16 & 15 would love to care for your animals as we would our own! We now have Briahs grandson Deuce is now 1 1/2 and is huge and a ball of fun! I’m currently a homeschool mom for I’m very flexible. I work part time but I’m available at anytime. I will make sure your babies are well taken care of! I am available three times a day for services and anytime you need your babies needs met. If they need play time we can do that or even just a belly rub after dinner :)

“We were visiting Tifton, GA for a few days and wanted to find a sitter where our 2 year old active black lab could run and play and enjoy the day while we were sight-seeing. I requested the stay the day before and Michelle responded to my request within 15 minutes! Even though Michelle was 30 miles away from where we were staying, it was worth the travel to have a family so loving and attentive to Gus! Their home was perfect for Gus! Big wide open space to run, another friendly dog, Roscoe, to play with, and a dog-friendly home that met all his needs. If we are in this area again, we will definitely contact Michelle!!”

“I can’t say enough great things about English! She has watched my dog on multiple occasions, and I’ve had a wonderful experience every time. One thing I especially appreciate is her excellent communication throughout the entire stay. She keeps me updated with plenty of pictures and detailed information about my dog’s day, including walks, potty breaks, meals, and activities. I never have to wonder how things are going because she makes sure I’m kept in the loop. English is reliable, attentive, caring, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Her updates give me so much peace of mind while I’m away, and I always feel confident knowing my dog is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust and would highly recommend English to anyone looking for a dependable and communicative dog sitter!”

About: I’ve had dogs all of my life, since I can remember. I have potty trained puppies and taught them tricks. I have experience with senior dogs and special needs as well. I also used to have a hamster, a rat, and hedgehog. Currently I own one dog and a saltwater fish tank. I have plenty of experience with cats as well. I am comfortable with caring for farm animals to reptiles/amphibians. Just about anything! I’m pretty much a sucker for any animal. They all have my heart. I typically have plenty of time to care for your pet and I’m usually always available. I also have open availability on weekends and holidays as well. My schedule is flexible. I treat all animals as if they are my own. I will do what it takes to make sure that your pet is comfortable and enjoy their time that I care for them:)
“Marta was terrific!! She sent us pictures throughout our puppy’s stay with her and even sent him home with some of her homemade treats. Definitely will be sending our puppy to her again in the future. 5/5 would recommend !”

“Kim is a life saver. She accepted a last minute daycare request due to an unforeseen issue. I only had the chance to review her profile which is not how I typically operate. It was by far the best decision. Kim made everything easy. She immediately made me and Sasha feel comfortable. She sent pics and videos throughout the day. I highly recommend Kim and will be sure to use her again in the future.”

About: I’m a lover of dogs who has been caring for and training dogs for 10 years. My experience came from dogs of my own along with dogs of friends and family members. In the past I have ventured into breeding and training. I currently have one dog name Princess who is on a raw food diet due to some digestive health issues. Princess is extremely calm and playful and loves a bunch of affective and her is daily as will your pup. My wife and daughter are very loving and go on family walks around our subdivision daily and can’t wait to include your pup into our routine. We are a extremely clean and tidy family so do not expect to get your pup back smelling bad or looking a mess. I currently work remotely so there is always time to go for walks during the day as it is necessary to get some sunshine and exercise for the pets and for me to get away from the computer screen. Please let me know what works best for you and what accommodations are needed for your pet and I will make sure it is taken care of. I have a comfortable home and an extremely friendly and playful dog name Princess. I have a nice size backyard in a great neighborhood to take walks in. I am huge with communication as it is important for you to know that the furry member of your family is good and safe while in my care. I can send pictures and text message updates if desired and I am also accepting of calls to check in.

“Nina Love Cindy and her family since the first day. Nina felt at home and she was excited to see Cindy the next days. Cindy maintained communication with us a couple of days before the booking and she sent me a couple of updates every day. She took Nina for walks, plays in the park and she went above and beyond while taking care of Nina. We and my family enjoyed our vacation time knowing Nina was in good hands. If you’re in the area or live in the area and you want your pet to be safe and taken care of I recommend you Cindy. Thank you again!”


About: I have cared for a variety of breeds with different temperaments, personalities and levels of care needs. I have experience in training and discipline with a number of different tools, so I am comfortable in most situations including walking dogs with reactive or pulling tendencies. I enjoy taking dogs on pack walks in the woods like at Acosta Regional Park. I am a full time pet care provider. I can offer morning and evening walks, daycare, overnights, transportation, baths, basic lease and agility training sessions. Your dog(s) will enjoying being a member of my "woof" pack whether they are joining us for a pack walk or overnight. I can also offer a daycare setting and pet transportation services.
“My baby Titan had a great time with TayShawn and her family. He was all tuckered out when he got home from playing. I would definitely use her again. Thank you for loving on our baby like one of your own”

“It is obvious that Crystal cares a lot about her fur babies, as she calls them. She was very thorough in finding out all she could about Sweet Pea’s wants and needs. Judging from the photos she shared and Pea’s demeanor when I picked her up. Pea had a wonderful time. And if Pea is happy, I’m happy.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Dunkirk
Once again we asked Madelyn and her family to take care of our pup while we were gone for the whole day. I knew we had made a good decision when Archie saw Madelyn and rushed over to greet her with lots of crazy enthusiasm (which he only does with people he knows and likes) and he didn't look back as he ran into the house with her. We loved seeing him having fun on the video and pictures Madelyn shared throughout the day. Madelyn and her family will always be someone we will look to in the future for our doggy day care/pet sitting needs.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Dunkirk commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.

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.
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 .
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.
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 .
