“Graham and Payton have created doggie paradise with their puppy palace! For a dog who comes from a quiet house, it was a great fit - no small children or other dogs for my princess to navigate.”
“Diego was great (and Coco too ☺️)! He encouraged a meet and greet, was very patient and asked questions to understand my dog’s habits and needs. It was the first time leaving her with anyone and went smoothly. Diego also sent regular updates and pictures, so I felt informed of how things were going. Definitely recommend and already booking the next stay!”
“Crystal was phenomenal in every way for our little guy! Very professional and offered personalized service for our "fur baby" as she called him. Would definitely recommend her service and will use her again. 😎”
“Our dog has the best time with Malvi and Andrej. We know he is in the best hands and doesn’t miss us one bit as he gets 5 star service at Camp Max ! They give him toys, treats, snuggles, concerts! Anything for the fur babies. He always comes home sleepy and happy”
“Butters had the best time with Beth & Bastien! He can’t wait to come back and play again. Thank you, Beth, for sending daily photos & updates - I know B was well-cared for!”
“Tasha was great! Quick responses, she sent pictures, asked great questions, and made the drop off and pick up very easy. Would definitely want to use her again! The dogs loved her!”
“As always, Rut and her husband took excellent care of Memphis. They are kind, reliable, and truly attentive, and it’s clear how much they genuinely care. We had complete peace of mind knowing Memphis was in such loving and capable hands. We are so thankful for them and highly recommend their care to anyone looking for someone they can fully trust.”
“Jayla took great care of my baby. She made sure to send plenty of pics and videos. My baby had a great time with Jayla and I would definitely recommend and use her again!”
“Sabrina is fantastic! She’s knowledgeable, warm, and incredibly easy to communicate with. She was so flexible when my plans changed, and I felt 100% confident leaving my dog under her care. I’d definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to any dog owner!”
“Aaron and Paweena are wonderful! They have a great setup and a large yard, and Macho loved spending time with them. I’d happily book with them again!”
“Caleb is the best! I know my dog is in good hands and always travel worry-free when he is watching my dog. He will make sure they are happy healthy and cozy while you’re away.”
“I was so nervous about leaving my dog with someone for the first time. Yolande put my nerves at ease. She is a very calm and gentle presence. My dog had a great weekend with her - with lots of playing and cuddling! When I came to pick him up, he was wagging his tail and smiling before he even saw me. That is very telling to how well he was taken care of. I would definitely recommend booking Yolande!”
“Team Hopkins is the best! Our Sunny was so happy when we returned home. We will definitely rebook. Thank you both so much for keeping our hearts at ease while we were on travel.”
“Robyn was a lifesaver by watching our dog Howie on very short notice. Even though Howie had newly begun having medical needs that required constant vigilance and a strict medication regimen, Robyn graciously and happily agreed to babysit him. She was so responsive and proactive and asked all the right questions about his needs, and Howie felt right at home with her. I can’t gush enough about how she came through for us, two strangers, in a critical moment. We will absolutely leave Howie with Robyn again and are so thankful to have found such a generous and compassionate sitter at such a stressful time”
“Melodie takes excellent care of my two boys. I never have to worry about my boys. I am not sure of the exact type of things that they do. But the next morning, both of boys slept until 10:30 am. All of their materials I gave to Melodie were returned me. She is very professional and knows just what each of my boys needs.”
“Danielle is simply amazing! She communicated often and made Moe feel like he was at home, as we were leaving Moe fan and gave her a good-bye hug. He likes it there. I will use her again. Thank you so much!!!!!”
“My dog Violet had a great time with Lizbeth! I really appreciated her level of communication, everything about the stay went well. Thank you for taking such good care of my fur baby!”
“Terrance was an absolute lifesaver for a last-minute overnight stay with my pup, Zulu. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire visit and made sure Zulu got along well with the other dog in his care. Zulu came back relaxed, happy, and ready for a nap which tells me he had a great time! I was on the hunt for a reliable backup sitter, but it looks like I’ve officially found my go-to for weekend stays. I can’t wait to book with Terrance again!”
“Paula is AWESOME!! She always takes such good care of my dog, Duchess. She’s responsive, provides updates, and is attentive to care notes. She’s my favorite sitter! I always have peace of mind when she cares for Duchess…and Duchess is alwaysssss happy when she sees Paula and her family. Highly recommend!!!”

Nicole was amazing! She sent daily pictures, was very accommodating, and always responded quickly to my messages. I had just adopted Scrap and was nervous about boarding because he has some behavioral issues, but Nicole made me feel completely at ease. After bringing him home, I noticed he’s friendlier around cats and seems to listen better, which is wonderful to see! I’m not sure how she did it, but I’m so grateful. I was able to enjoy my trip worry-free knowing Scrap was in such good hands. I highly recommend Nicole!
Rita was wonderful with Sunny! She was communicative, kind, and took the time to understand Sunny’s quirks and needs, which made us feel comfortable leaving her in Rita’s care. We really appreciated her thoughtfulness and communication throughout the stay. We would absolutely recommend Rita and would definitely book with her again!
Myesha was very responsive and provided pictures of Willow throughout her stay! She gave a detailed description upon pick up of everything she ate whether or not she pottied. Although I didn’t take her up on it, she also offered to give a tour of her place prior to boarding.I would recommend and will definitely use again!
Jade is very warm and inviting. We agreed on a 2 hr. meet and greet visit for our pet to be with her, given her separation anxiety and not being with her regular sitter. Jade reported our pet whining for the first hour being with her. When I asked Jade if she would be open to a future visit in hopes of my pet becoming lass anxious. She was immediate in saying yes.
Diego and Natalia are THE BEST SITTERS for my Snow who demands love, attention and closeness. The photos of Snow playing with their cat's toy, at the window with their cat, both of them looking out of the the window is a regular meeting place with each other. At home Snow has started perching herself on the back of our sofa and even enjoying some of her best naps of the day. My family is very grateful for the care and attentiveness of Diego and Natalia toward Snow but also to the other pets being boarded during the same time. Photos of the pets hanging out together are reassuring that all the pets are well regarded by these sitters.
KG was amazing with our two dogs. They've come back with more training then they started with after one weekend. She gets dogs - who they are, what they care about, what's fun, what's scary, what's too much - and meets them where they are. Can't recommend enough. Big bonus is the pictures you get - you feel comfortable knowing how much fun they're having.
I highly recommend Thalia as a pet sitter. Our dog had her first pet-sitting experience with Thalia and it was a great success. Thalia is kind and easy to communicate with. Our dog was very comfortable with Thalia. I was very stressed leaving our dog for the first time and Thalia made our separation stress-free. Thank you!
You da best! Thanks for caring for Blaze as you did, thank you for the daily pics, thank you for being flexible, agreeing to extend Blaze’s stay after unforeseen changes and thank you for your clear responsive communication. I would book Jayla again in a heartbeat and I know Blaze would agree.

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 Fairmount Heights 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 Fairmount Heights 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 Fairmount Heights.
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 Fairmount Heights. 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 Fairmount Heights 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.
