“Marie was such a sweetheart. She has a big heart for dogs and took very good care of mine. My baby had plenty of room to run in the backyard and she sent lots of pictures. Will use her again.”
“Labren, did a great job taking care of my dog. She was open to a meet & greet with my dog. They bonded and that was important to me. I will rebook with Labren shortly as I appreciate her service and how she took care of my Soni. She provided updates with either photos or videos. Soni got a bath during her stay!! Thank you, Labren for your service! 🙂”
“John and Gemma were amazing!! They made me feel so comfortable leaving my pup with them. They sent updates throughout his stay and were very accommodating for his needs. I would definitely book with them again!!!”
“Katie was amazing! We had a last minute emergency and I had to board 5 animals with no notice. She accommodated a senior dog, a puppy, a deaf spynx cat and two tabby cats with no problem. She has a nice fenced in area where they can play. She was able to give my animals various diets. I can’t say enough. Thank you.!”
“Sarah was great. This was my first time using the app and trusting Rosie to a stranger. Sarah sent pictures and kept me updated. She was very patient with me when my tire went flat on my way home and I was late.”
“Daniel has watched our dog several times now and has been terrific with her. I can tell when we drop her off that Izzy is always happy to see Daniel and does not shy away from him, as though she were afraid or uncomfortable in any way, which are signs that I watch for when boarding my dog. Daniel has always been helpful, has always responded quickly when texting him and even though we could probably find someone closer to us, we prefer to have Daniel watch Izzy.”

“Samantha and Wendy as well their amazing dog family were so welcoming secure and comforting to our Knight. Got plenty of playtime, naps, and love/care just like mom and dad would as we were gone. There was such great communication and never a doubt in trust or security as they’re always keeping up with updates as well as pictures/videos. Thank you ever so much can’t wait to book with you 2 again ❤️❤️❤️”
“SARY IS AN EXCELLENT DOG SITTER. MY DOG LOVES GOING OVER TO HER HOUSE. SHE IS ACCOMMODATING AND KEEPS CONTACT BEFORE AND DURING YOUR DOGS STAY. YOU CAN TRUST YOUR PET WITH HER, SHE TAKES AMAZING CARE OF YOUR PET.”
“We were recommended Mrs. Vlasta's Boarding services when we urgently needed them the following morning. When we contacted her, we were fortunate to find she was available, she immediately said yes, and not only that, but she was also able to pick up our Golden Retriever from the hotel where we were staying. She was very generous, kind, and full of affection for our Van Gogh. She also sent us many messages and photos. We could see how comfortable, attentive, and playful our dog was during his short stay. We recommend her 100% and hope to use her services once again!”
“We have used Annabelle a few times now. We know our pup is well cared for because he always looks disappointed that we are back to pick him up. She sends daily pictures and videos of him living his best life with her pups. We couldn’t ask for better.”
“Angel was amazing! My 2 big babies stayed with him and his family in his home for 7 days and they took exceptional care of them. From the start, communication was clear, consistent, and reassuring, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved the attention they received. Angel kept us updated with messages and photos, which meant so much to us. It’s not easy trusting someone with both your pets, but Angel made the entire experience stress-free. We came back to two very happy dogs, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”
“Mary and Nick were the next best thing to our having the dogs at home. They treated Mongo and Reba as if they were their own children even allowing them to sleep in bed with them. They are 2 of the nicest people that we could have asked for to watch and care for our fur babies.”
“Jacquelyn and her family where great my Twink fit right in. She was very attractive to my dog and even texted to ask questions. I will be leaving my dog with her again when I go outta town in the future. Thank you so much for you care”
“Amazing care taker. My dog had a fantastic time with her family. She also went above and beyond to help ne with a certain difficult situation. I would 100% recommend her and her family.”
“Chris was wonderful taking care of my puppy over the holidays. My family and I truly appreciate how caring they were with him. We received picture updates everyday while Rocky was with Chris and his wife.”
“It only remains to say that Ms. Libertad performs her job very professionally; the care provided to my pet met my expectations thanks to her dedication and the affection she brings to her work. Thank you very much, Ms. Libertad—this isn't a "goodbye," but a "see you soon," as I will be needing your services again very shortly. God bless you.”
“I booked Bradley last minute to watch my dog Henry and I’m so glad it worked out! He was awesome. I loved all the pictures he sent and he was very communicative. Henry has stomach sensitivities and has to take medication daily and Bradley was not phased by it. He also is prone to getting into anything and everything and Bradley kept a close eye on him. Great experience and will be booking again in the future!”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. 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.
96% of sitters in Fort Meade 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 Fort Meade 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 Fort Meade.
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 Fort Meade. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 Fort Meade 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 FL 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.
