“Rodney and Marissa were absolutely incredible in watching our 6 year old English Bulldog. The communication was open and timely. They even sent pictures during his brief stay. Thank you for taking such good care of Taz.”
“Jena B was literally the best, my pup was so happy and well taken care of. If you are looking for a star sitter Jena is it. I would use her again 10 times over . Jena is really nice , great communication and so attentive to the dogs in her care . I felt super comfortable from booking to pick up.”
“Lora is an absolute gem! I’ve found my new sitter! She and her family were fantastic with my two boys, one of whom can be a handful. She has a wonderful fenced back yard that they loved to wear themselves out in. She shared daily updates and when our plans got unexpectedly changed she accommodated an extra night and supplied her own food to help us out. Then to top it off she dropped them home free of charge. So very thankful that I didn’t have to worry about our pups when dealing with an emergency. I wholeheartedly recommend Lora! Thank you!”
“Thank you for always taking such good care of my baby girl. I’m able to attend events and travel knowing she is getting the love and attention she deserves.”
“James and Mary were amazing with Scooter! They sent an update with photos throughout his stay! Scooter enjoys human attention and they showed genuine care. He also made a lot of dog friends. We will definitely be taking Scooter to Mary and James again and highly recommend them to others looking for a good place to leave their furry family member.”
“Carla was very flexible to a last minute cancelation we had from another Rover boarder. She was not only highly communicative with pictures but also was so accommodating to special requests. We will be using her in the future.”
“Ariel is an extremely dedicated and kind dog sitter. When our pup was homesick and struggling, she did everything in her power to provide love and security for our dog. She took the dog on long walks to get out the energy and even went out of her way to purchase bones from Petco for our dog to chew on. We are so appreciative.”
“Marwa and Casey took such good care of our pup! Their communication was excellent and we enjoyed getting pictures of him throughout his stay. We are very thankful for their love, patience, and understanding of our pup as he has really bad anxiety. Marwa understood his needs and met them in perfectly. We hope he can stay again in the future!”
“Kellyn took great care of our dog! We appreciated the periodic updates. I can tell that she went above and beyond in making sure Mariner was safe and comfortable. We look forward to booking again!”
“Cola was well taken care of for her overnight stay with Auana! I received photo updates and they treated her like one of their own! Even going the extra mile to brush her and send her back so happy :)”
“Communication with Christina was great throughout the entire booking process. I really appreciated that she took the time to ask about my dog’s needs, especially since she’s a rescue. Christina also sent me updated pictures throughout the stay, which I really appreciated and helped put my mind at ease. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Nikki seemed very knowledgeable sweetheart how to take care of our dog's anxiousness and energy from the get go. It helped a lot that she had a fully fenced yard and no pets of her own when we booked her. From meet and greet to pick up, she made it easy for everyone. We specially appreciated her updates and our dog truly enjoyed staying at her place. We also appreciated the tips and other feedback she gave us, as we are first time pet owners and our dog has some unique needs. Definitely will use her services again.”
“I like the fact that Princess felt right at home with Cheryl and her family... I will be using Cheryl for my upcoming trips!!!! Hopefully she will not be booked lol!!!!”
“Helen and her crew were so wonderful! She did an amazing job taking care of my dog, who can be a bit of a handful, and made him feel right at home. Our dog was so excited to go back after our meet and greet, and seemed a bit disappointed to leave at the end of his stay. Her dogs were also super sweet and welcomed Berry just as much as Helen did. She was super communicative and I really appreciated the updates and pics. I will definitely try to book with Helen again!”
“Excellent care was provided by this family! My dog felt right at home and thoroughly enjoyed the children of the family. My dog is still sleeping off all of the fun he had this weekend. Thank you!”
“Shruti was super patient with Flora, and provided plenty of updates and photos without me having to ask. I will definitely be asking her to keep Flora again!”
“Jessica and her family embraced my baby Chase like he was apart of their family. He spent an entire week with her and the experience was amazing. She will be my forever sitter.”

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 Finksburg 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 Finksburg 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 Finksburg.
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 Finksburg. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 Finksburg 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.
