“Megan was such an amazing sitter! She watched our 10 year old Shiba, Rey, in her apartment for 4 days / nights! Rey has not stayed with a sitter in over 5 years, so we asked Megan to meet her two days before, and she agreed! We met on a walk and Rey loved her immediately! Rey had no troubles staying with Megan! Megan was super responsive and calm and sweet! She sent my husband and me several photos updates during each day and took such great care of Rey, who ate, slept, and went to the bathroom like she normally would! We are SO happy with our experience with Megan that we've already booked another stay with her, and we plan to continue to do so! Can't recommend Megan enough!”

“Hello, humans, I am dictating this review to my Mum in order to share with you my experience with Aleyna. She must have known I come from royalty because she treated me like a Queen. Trust me my standards are high. The service was impeccable! Meals were served on time, my water was always fresh. There were so many favorite lounging spots all maintained to perfection. She understood the assignment: - Admire me, but don’t overdo it - Engage me, but only when I initiate - Interpret my stare correctly (this is advanced-level work) She even mastered my very specific petting protocol—an art form many never achieve. Under the arms, chin and don’t forget the ears and belly. Not once did I feel the need to protest. In conclusion: I approve or as you humans say it was 5-star service. I have asked my Mum to make my reservation again soon. You too may consider visiting Aleyna, but only if you have epicurean and refined taste. The Goddess 🐾”

“Dylan is fantastic! We booked him to watch our dog Bruno, and he went above and beyond from the very start. He was kind enough to set up a meet-and-greet a few days before our booking, which immediately gave us so much peace of mind and helped Bruno feel comfortable with him. During the stay, Dylan kept us completely updated every single morning with a detailed report of Bruno's behavior and daily routine. The photos he sent showed Bruno looking so relaxed and happy. Dylan is incredibly flexible, a great communicator, and always quick to respond to messages. I couldn't be happier knowing Bruno was in such wonderful company. I recommend Dylan 100%!”

The food I’d packed ran out, and Jeison went out of his way to make sure she was fed and healthy. Plus, he was very communicative with me and sent picture updates throughout the day. Would absolutely re-book petsitting with Jeison next time I’m out of town!”

About: My love of dogs began when my mom got a puppy when I was in sixth grade. Now I am a dog mom. I've been the proud mom of a Boston Terrier/Frenchie mix for the past 4 years. I've raised her since she was 3 months old, through potty training, puppy training and intermediate training. I'd love to care for your fur baby too. I'm at home during the day and available to drop in/ walk your fur baby. I am available in the mornings and in the afternoon. I have an unfenced end unit townhouse. There is grass on the side of my house and plenty of unfenced grass in my townhome community. I work from home almost every day of the week so I will have time to take care of your baby during the weekday. I'm able to get out and walk dogs on the weekends. I have an unfenced yard and a fenced play area in front of my house. I have a friendly fur baby who likes to play and thinks she's the leader of the pack.

“I could not give a more glowing review of a dog sitter. Our dog, Alba, is anxious, and Chad and Regina knew exactly how to help her feel calm. With more than 25 years of experience in veterinary medicine and related fields, Regina handled her with a confidence that put us at ease right away. They were also very communicative, sending plenty of photos and updates throughout our time away. We came home to a relaxed, happy dog, and we wouldn't hesitate to book again. Highly recommended!”

Fantastic experience. I was very nervous about boarding my dogs with people I didn't know well, but relaxed as soon as I met Sid and his dogs. I'm not sure my dogs wanted to come home.

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.

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 .

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 .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
