“I want to express my sincere gratitude to Justin & Stephanie for the outstanding pet sitting service they provided. They went above and beyond to ensure that Prince was well taken care of during my absence. Their regular picture updates and communication gave me peace of mind, and it was evident that Prince was in good hands. Prince returned home happy and healthy, which speaks volumes about the quality of care they provided. I highly recommend Justin & Stephanie to anyone in need of a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Barbra took amazing care of my little senior yorkie and he had a blast staying with her. She kept me updated while I was away and sent the cutest pictures. You can tell Barbra cares about animals and wants to make sure they are comfortable during their stay. I 100% recommend her services to anyone who reads this!!”
“Lisa was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and truly took great care of my dog Bandit! I received pictures and updates while I was away from my pup and knew he was in good hands. Thank you Lisa!”
“Jess took very good care of my girl nala. Sending me a ton of pictures in which my pup was extremely happy. She even got me a framed picture of my dog as well as some extra toys for her. Jess goes the extra mile and will treat your pet as her own!”
“Tabby came through for us when we were in a pinch with finding a place for our two boxers and we are forever thankful.. Our boxers certainly enjoyed their time in her big back yard.”
“I cannot recommend Sharon highly enough for anyone seeking a trustworthy and loving dog-sitter! From the moment we first met, Sharon’s warmth and genuine love for dogs were evident. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog with the utmost care and affection, look no further. Thank you, Sharon, for making our time away worry-free and for giving our dog such a wonderful experience!”
“Jen was wonderful with our 3year old dog Scooter!! She treated him as if he were her own!! We were extremely happy with the entire experience especially since this was the first time using rover.com. We will definitely be seeing Jen in the future - thanks so much!!”
“I love taking my dog to her. My dog knows exactly who she is. She loves her and she takes very good care of my dog. I’ve never had a problem. I will continue to keep going back to her as long as she accepts my dog and she takes very good care of my dog. Thank you again”
“This is my second overnight stay with Claudia. Excellent boarding service for my dog. He is in great care with Claudia. We love her level of service with Killian. Changed his sweaters, play time, personalized photos. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Rackeem was the best! From his knowledge and expertise in handling dogs to his professionalism and consistent photos/updates. Thank you so much for watching my baby for the weekend. I will definitely be booking with you again. Marley seemed to really love his stay and made a new friend!”
“Wendy was quick to respond to my request last minuet. She was easy to get ahold of during Axels entire stay, and was such a pleasure to meet! Axel seemed to have a wonderful time, and got along great with Wendy's two dogs. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“This was our first time using Rover and our first time leaving Skye with "strangers", so we were a bit nervous. I read through all of the great reviews here for Jill and Thomas and reached out. Any fears, worries, etc quickly went away. Skye immediately clicked with their dogs and loved running around the amazing backyard. Jill and Thomas kept us updated with pics and video during our trip. It was obvious Skye was in great hands! Towards the end of our trip, we were starting to worry that she wouldn't want to come home when we saw just how at ease she was in their place and with their dogs! :) From booking to pickup, the entire experience was great with these two and we cannot express enough how much we appreciated their kindness. Would highly recommend their services!”
“I’m very happy I found Rita. This was a last minute decision and it worked out very well. Princess was very well cared for while at Rita’s. Princess will be a repeat client for sure”
“Couldn’t have had a better experience. Such a sweet, gracious lady. Sent pictures and communicated daily. Loved on my babies, not just “dogs sat.” Even allowed me to pick them up LATE as my flight was delayed! I have my new local “Rover-ine!””
“Toby recognized yovonne and Joseph immediately and was relaxed from the get go. I got constant updates which I really appreciate, shows the effort they put into taking care of him. Definitely my go-to people for toby when ever I am going out of town.”
About: I became a puppy raiser for Guiding Eyes for the Blind right around 2000. It was a great program to help me stay in tune. My favorite take away - your emotions travel through the leash. It reminded me to stay focused on my 4-legged guy when we walked especially. I stayed a sitter for the non-profit even when I wasn't raising. I currently work FT - most days remote. My routine with my own was a morning walk to the entrance of the neighborhood (15-20 min). Mid-morning and mid-afternoon of just the street (~10 min). And a longer after dinner walk (~30 min.). And a night-night walk before turning in. I am currently without a furbaby, so yours would be my focus. I have a gated back deck we could hang on nice days. Leash walks throughout the day.

Elkton dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jess was great! Very communicative and provided lots of photo updates. She was able to provide medication tablets as scheduled. I'd say he enjoyed his stay and felt at home. When we picked him up, he stood & looked back at Jess as if he wanted her to come along, which says everything about how happy and comfortable he was under her care.
Very communicative & easy going. Plenty of pictures while I was away. After losing my 1st dog, my 2nd was lonely, so it was great that there were friends there to play with. Being a senior dog, I feel he was taken care of well. Medication administration was not a problem for them. A fenced yard was also a plus, along with the ability to provide frequent potty breaks. I would use them again and I would recommend them.
