“This was my puppy’s first time at doggy daycare, and Jayla was amazing! She made me feel completely comfortable, kept me updated throughout the day, and sent plenty of photos. My pup had a great time playing and socializing with another puppy. I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience — highly recommend!”
“I appreciate all of Denisha’s efforts to try to accommodate my dog’s needs. It did not turn out working out but that’s due to my dog’s own personal special needs and needing more individualized special care. Denisha was very patient and honest during my dog’s care. Some sitters do it for the financial gain but I could really tell that Denisha genuinely cares for the dogs that she sits. She was responsive and provided frequent updates/pictures. I really am thankful that she cared about my dog’s comfort and tried to accommodate her needs. I would definitely recommend Denisha!”
“I am very pleased! Thanks Diego and Coco! Diego was professional, responsive, and asked the right questions to make certain my fur baby was well taken care of. He sent me pictures and a video. I plan to use him again soon.”
“Theresa was amazing! Rosie had a great stay with her and T'Challa. Everything went perfectly, I'm so grateful that Theresa took such good care of Rosie while I visited the National Mall.”
“My dog, Freddie, stayed with Joe for an afternoon while we were out in Beaufort. Joe has a great location, super convenient to downtown and a great backyard for the pups to play in. Joe made things super easy and his dog, Watson, kept Freddie busy and entertained for the afternoon. Would highly recommend Joe and Watson and hope to have Freddie stay again in the future!”
“Simply phenomenal! This was the first time we've had to leave Ollie for the whole day so we wanted to be sure he was left in good hands. I've been on the sitter side many times before but this was the first time we've left one of our dogs with someone other than family. We could not be happier or more grateful! Catie was extremely communicative, gave multiple picture and video updates, and Ollie clearly had a blast playing with Catie's dogs! So glad to have found such a loving, attentive sitter we can feel so comfortable leaving our pup with :)”
About: I had a dog named Buddy that I loved deeply for 16 years. Buddy passed away two years ago and it has been difficult moving on without him.I am looking for opportunities to dogsit for companionship and an excuse to be more active. I have dogsat for family many times and have experience caring for a range of ages and breeds. I am most familiar with caring for senior dogs. I work fully remote and will be able to be with your baby throughout the day. Please consider me you new sitter! Pet care fits into my daily routine, since I work from home, I’m able to take care of the dog during the day and night. I typically wake up pretty early and keep a regimented schedule throughout the day. I make sure the dog is walked. I make sure that I spend a little time playing with them if they’re older dogs and I spend a little time rubbing them or petting them. Some dogs don’t like all of that so you really have to pay attention to what type of dog you’re getting. Luckily I love all dogs so it’s all fun for me.
“Malvi and Andrej are great. They are thoughtful about how different dogs will get along. They have a big backyard and the pups get lots of playtime outside. The first floor of their house is well set up for dogs, and they take really good care of the pups who come to spend the day. My dog has done day care at their house as well as boarding, and she comes home relaxed and happy every time.”
About: Hello World! My name is Rouday and I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old. In those 25 years I have had the privilege of raising three dogs, all different shapes and sizes. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks, playing with them at dog parks, and loving up on my furry friends. I currently have an extremely flexible schedule as I work remotely and control my own workflow. I also have two young children that require schedule flexibility. Very safe secure building, which includes dedicated dog walking areas, and also room to groom pets as well. Location is also close to some great parks and walking paths that dogs will enjoy
“Thank you for taking care of our baby! Nicole was great - patient with Ethel, who was a little anxious. If we are ever looking for a sitter near DC again, we will absolutely reach out again!”
“Angela was easy to schedule, responsive, and asked appropriate questions to confirm Fig’s care needs during her stay. She was patient with our dog’s nervous tendencies”
“Melanie was so wonderful with my foster dog Betty! Melanie was attentive to her needs, really responsive, and able to work with me at short notice. Betty will definitely be coming back to hang until she finds her furever home!”
About: I've taken care of small dogs for the past twenty years spanning from puppy to senior. Playtime with lots of cuddles are always a go-to activity. I'm a work from home warrior that has a flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide array of time commitments for varying pet care needs. I have a fenced in yard with lots of walking trails in my neighborhood. My pomeranian male, Ace, is with me full time but also loves visiting his grandparents nearby.
“This was my puppy’s first time with a sitter but Christian was awesome easing his anxiety and taking great care of him. She’s very responsive, reliable , and extremely patient ! I’ll definitely be using her again.”
“Danielle is great with Diggy. She keeps me updated during his stay and also send pictures. I truly appreciate her in taking care of my fur baby. Thank you, Danielle and you are greatly appreciated!!!”
About: I've cared for animals my entire life, from small pets to large farm animals, and even helped on my aunt's farm growing up. My love and compassion for animals is what sets me apart. My dream is to become a veterinarian and one day open my own veterinary practice, so you can trust that your pet will be treated with the same care and attention I'd give my own. Im currently working part time at home and looking for anyway to workout during the week so I have a lot of time space and energy to run around and love your dog while being gone. My 6 month old cat has a crate available if needed, but she usually has free roam of the house since there are no other pets in the home. She's very friendly and loves small children and other animals. I give her plenty of love and attention every day, and I truly treat her like my own baby!
About: Hi! I currently have two mixed labs named Graham and chocolate who are sisters. I also have a sweet young cat named toasted marshmallow. We call them the s’more gang at home! In the past I have had two adorable dogs, a 14 year old female Husky mix and a 11 year old male Pembroke Welsh Corgi. I've trained all of my dogs to travel with me via plane, boat, metro transportation, and do some services for me. The last two dogs mentioned (Angel and Enzo) have passed away due to old age, but they were with me from puppyhood until their last breath. I also have a lot of experiences of taking care of other animals such as rabbits, rats, bearded dragons, snakes, frogs, and whatnot. I love all animals, but dogs and cats are my absolute favorite. I have experience taking care of sick animals and love animals that are especially wary of strangers or need time to warm up to. I’m currently a full time student with classes just on select days of the week, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. If I’m not housesitting for you (if you want to drop your pet off at my home), I have a huge fenced yard and lots of dog and cat beds/toys. We also have two young children under ages 4.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fairmount Heights
Rita was absolutely amazing with my dog, Natalie! Natalie can be reactive and typically needs time to adjust to new environments and people, but Rita went above and beyond to make sure she felt comfortable and supported. She took the time to really understand Natalie’s needs, triggers, and what makes her happy, which made such a difference. I really appreciated the regular photo updates and how communicative she was throughout—checking in, asking thoughtful questions, and keeping me reassured the entire time. It’s clear Rita genuinely cares and puts in the extra effort, and because of that, Natalie had a great experience. I’m so grateful and would absolutely book with her again. Thank you, Rita!

Took my pupper on last-minute & were a very sweet, pleasant, accommodating pair! Sent plenty of photo/video updates, kept him constant company & kept-up with his needs! Thank you both for being available & kind to my little one; will definitely need you in the future! ☺️

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 Fairmount Heights 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.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 5,360 sitters in Fairmount Heights, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
