“Shuling was like a second mom to Wally while I was away! They treated him like he was their own and he loved playing with their dog. Shuling sent pictures and videos every day so that I felt comfortable. Looked like he was having a blast! Will definitely book again.”
“Beth is simply the best! She has provided loving and professional care to both our late geriatric Shih Tzu who had a number of health issues AND our new 5 month old Havanese puppy. Both dogs loved her! We have such confidence in Beth that whenever we need to go away, we can do so with confidence knowing our pup will enjoy her "vacation" too! We appreciate Beth so much and could not recommend her more highly.”
“Jake and Melissa were FABULOUS caring for our Max! We received regular updates, pictures and videos which really helped to know Max was enjoying himself and was is safe hands. He was part of their family! We are so grateful to have found Jake and Melissa on Rover - no more kennel for Max!”
“James was fantastic with Lenny. We did a meet and greet so Lenny could get accustomed to the house. James has an amazing backyard and played lots of fetch with Lenny. We received lots of photos and updates, and Lenny came home happy and tired (and a little sad about having to leave James’ house). We absolutely would book with James again!”
“Willow had the best time with Shelby and her pup Ellie. Instant best friends. I felt totally confident that our 4 year old dog was having a vacation all her own the entire weekend. Lots of time outside, on walks, playing, and snuggling. 100% would recommend and feeling so happy we have a go-to sitter :) thank you guys!”
About: I have owned dogs my whole life, and know how to take care of them. I also have experience with cats, I have helped my grandfather with a stray cat that chose him! I'm openly available, as of today. I like to volunteer, but that usually only takes about 4 or 5 hours. I will give your pet the time it needs. You make sure that they have plenty of fresh water, eat on time, and walk them every day when the sun is not too hot, eg in the morning or evening.
“We had our trial stay with Candice and the pups and us felt very comfortable and happy. She was very communicative. Easy to work with and kept us updated with the pups throughout the day. We’re glad we met her and will be going to her many many times in the future.”
“Hester was absolutely wonderful! Sent us updates on our boy while we were out of the country and shared about all the fun he was having. Would definitely rebook and recommend!!”
“Ciarra was absolutely wonderful! She is the first dogsitter I have ever had which made me super skeptical, but when we had our meet & greet my dog Lily and her sweet Toby got along so well! She sent me pictures the entire time and kept telling me how well behaved Lily was! I am already using her again in a couple weeks and you definitely should too, 10/10 recommend! And she gave us a bag with sweet toys and cute polaroid pictures! Best experience!”
“Megan did a super job of caring for our cat, Tux. She was easy to communicate with and even shared photos and a video of him during his stay with her. I highly recommend her to take care of your furry friend!”
“Alicia was incredible! She gave updates daily on our pup and was very detailed on how their day went. Will be booking with her again. You can definitely relax because your pup will be in great hands in her care.”
“So grateful for Julianna she watched my 10 week old puppy which I don’t know where to begin our puppy usually we just clean to my daughter but went to Julianna with ease she was very thorough and asked anything. If there was anything that we forgot that we could message her. She sent pictures and updates and text my daughter the whole time yes glad I found her it was a little different circumstances with a 10 week old puppy because he wasn’t fully vaccinated and could not be around any other dogs so she work out perfectly for us definitely will use again in the future”
“Lovely couple with a baby and a toddler. Buffy had to warm up to Parker, their German Shepherd but I hear it went well. Tyler and wife watched Buffy on a holiday, July 4th. They were very gracious when I requested an itinerary change. I felt like they were really attuned to Buff-dog. Will definitely ask again for their assistance.Highly recommend.”
“We thought we were having a good time until Tiffany sent pictures of our dogs. They were having the time of their lives! Tiffany is so kind and caring. She sent pictures of both dogs, cooked them food, let them sleep where they were comfortable. I couldn’t have picked a better person, and I will now only allow them to stay with Tiffany. Wonderful experience and big thanks to Tiffany!”
“Jasmine was fantastic with our two dogs for 10 days over Christmas! Daily walks and pictures were sent to us. I felt so at peace knowing they were being well taken care of. When our flight times coming home got changed, Jasmine was so understanding and flexible with our pickup. Great experience, highly recommended!”
“Angela was amazing! She was so kind, attentive, and kept our dog active and happy while we were away. She is a true animal lover! We really appreciated all the updates, photos, and videos, it gave us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend her and would absolutely book again! 🐾”
“I am SO thankful for Mackenzie. She takes the best care of my fur baby! She makes my pup feel right at home. He even had an emergency and Mackenzie took him right to the vet for me. She alleviates all my worries and concerns! I love her detailed reports and all the pictures and videos she sends me!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Edgewater
If I could give Sarah and Peter 10 stars, I would! My dog had an amazing time at their house, and she and their dog became fast friends. Great communication, lots of photos, and Sarah even brushed out my goldendoodle AND washed her blanket. If you want your dog to have lots of attention from caregivers who treat your dog like their own, Sarah and Peter are the ones to book!
Kaci took care of my dog when I went on vacation and it was great! She kept me updated on my dog the entire time and kept her very active. It was such a relief to know that my dog was being cared of by someone who clearly has a lot of love for animals and is trustworthy and responsible. We will definitely have our dog stay with Kaci in the future.
Katie made Rosie feel right at home right away. Rosie has always been a bit slow to come around. She sent plenty of photos and videos and was very responsive. She even responded within minutes after we had picked up Rosie when I accidentally called her. She genuinely has a caring heart. Definitely recommend her.

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Edgewater 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 Edgewater 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 Edgewater.
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 Edgewater. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 Edgewater 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.
