“My puppy goes to daycare at Ashley's house once a week. Ashley takes really good care of my puppy and keeps me updated with photos and how things are going. She is also very quick to respond to my requests.”
“Tiffany has again been amazing with accommodating our ever-changing schedules. Our dog feels totally comfortable with her and gets excited to see her in the mornings. We are definitely lucky to have found someone to take such great care of our girl!”
“Charvé was a life saver with a last minute request when my other sitter arrangements changed. She was warm and welcoming and she kept me updated. My dog also had a blast meeting new friends.”
“Aviah was so nice to accept a last minute daycare request. She has a large area for the dogs and a wonderful fenced back yard. We really appreciated the time she took with us when dropping off our dogs, the care that they received, the communications, and photos. Highly recommend! Very professional!”
“Lila is fantastic, we’ve been trusting her with our dogs over the last 2+ years and we always can relax because we know they’re in good hands. Our dogs are seniors and she’s knows how to take special care of our old pups.”
“Jasmine was so great with Willow! She took her to the dog park, was flexible with my schedule, and even washed Willow’s bedding when she happy peed on it. Will definitely use Jasmine in the future!”
About: Richard has had many dogs his whole life and loves for them to be happy. Richard has always done well with animals and wants to provide comfort in a new environment. Richard also has prior experience helping other Rover providers from living with roomates so he is used to taking care of dogs of all types and sizes. Anny has started taking of our toy poodle Katsumi since March 2024 and grew up with a family cat. She has experience taking care of a variety of different pets since starting Rover. Anny is a very loving person and loves to play and take care of dogs. Anny is a stay at home wife who wants to spend her free time at home. She is always concerned to make sure everyone has enough water and is taken care of. We typically wake up early in the morning everyday and will feed the pets and let them go potty first thing. Richard goes to work early in the morning while Anny stays home to take care of the pets. Richard is usually back early in the afternoon and we will both be home to take care of the pets together as a team. We prefer pickup and drop off times to be in the afternoon after 3:30 pm if possible. We have a first floor space where the guest pets stay. There is also a play pen area full of blankets for dogs to lounge and play in if desired. The play pen and blankets are washed between each guest we receive. We try to make the play pen as fun as possible so feel free to bring toys. We can provide dog training pads as well. We are careful to make sure the dog will not run away outside and that the cat stays inside. We can accept or provide pet furniture such as dog beds, toys, bowls, food. Bringing your own food and treats is highly encouraged to maintain the same healthy diet. We want to make friends with your pets. Anything you need and we will do our best to help. We have a toy poodle that spends most of her time upstairs or in the kitchen. She is up-to-date with all vaccines. Because she is very small, she doesn't usually interact with the guest dogs unless we ensure they are compatable. If they are compatable, we are happy to let them play together while supervised.
“Beth and Jim took great care of our little girl today. And Dory had a great time playing with Pearl today - despite their size and age difference! I appreciated our meet and greet and the updates I got from Beth. Happy to have found them!”
“Lynn was great. She cared for my Dior like one of her own. The atmosphere was pleasant and set up for pets - plenty of space in the home and fenced in backyard. Dior was well cared for in the home with love.”
“We had such a great experience with this daycare! They were absolutely amazing—so kind, attentive, and clearly loves what they do. Saint had the best time and really bonded with their dog, Kai. They went on walks, played together, and even had time to rest and nap, which I really appreciated. I felt completely at ease knowing Saint was in such good hands. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”
About: I’m a proud dog parent to Moonie, my very smart 3 year old Maltipoo, and I also live with a 4 year old Pomeranian — so yes, my house is basically dog approved. I love walks, dog parks, treats, and teaching Moonie new tricks. I’ll treat your pup like family, with lots of love, patience, and probably a few compliments ❤️🥰💕 I work in the office some days, but I’m mostly remote and home with the pups. There’s always time for potty breaks, playtime, little backyard zoomies, and cuddle breaks.. so basically, the dogs have a better schedule than we do 😂 I live in a townhouse with a small backyard — perfect for quick potty breaks or a little zoomies session. My neighborhood is safe and great for walks. I always clean paws after potty breaks, keep fresh pee pads available and changed daily, and yes… dogs are allowed on the furniture.

“Liz and Jeffery were amazing sitters for my sweet Sadie. I was in the area for work and found them to watch my dog during the day. They went above and beyond to make sure that Sadie was comfortable and well taken care of while I was at work. They truly treated Sadie like she was part of their own family. Sadie was always so happy to go to doggy day care in the morning. If I am ever back in the area, I will definitely book with Liz and Jeffery for any type of care they provide.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Mona taking care of Kai. Mona is incredibly friendly and nice, always responsive, providing lots of photos and videos. Highly recommend! Happy Holidays 😊”
About: I have 6 years of experience taking care of pets. Highly attentive to your pets needs and provide a safe fun filled interactive and loving space for your fur babies. Only boarding services are provided. Dogs are allowed full access to the first floor as long as they are potty trained. If dogs rely on any form of pea pads, they must be crated during bed time and moments that I am not home. I strive to have dogs as crate free as possible so that they can enjoy their stay and have more playtime. For the safety of your fur baby and others verification of the following is required prior to boarding: DHLPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Leptospirosis, Parainfluenza, and Parvovirus) Rabies Canine Influenza (H3N8 and H3N2) Bordetella Outside of that…. I own a home in a neighborhood that has ample trails and is highly dog friendly. I have a 9 pound Shihpoo named London who is 3 years old. London is a fun, sociable, and playful dog who has never met a dog she doesn’t like so I hope your fur baby is ready! If your pet has a specialized diet, I am comfortable with that as London gets her meals prepared by us daily. We provide daily photos, videos, and open communication the duration of your pets stay. Thus, allowing you to fully enjoy your vacation at the same time that your furbaby is on a pawstacation.
“Ryan and Sabrina have been wonderful as sitters for Toby. He loves going there and especially loves their big yard. They are very flexible with any changes and always accomodating. I totally recommend 100%.”
“Gabby accepted my last minute request for assistance when my regular sitter was unable to watch my dog while I worked. She took good care of Zoey and did a great job with communicating via the app on Zoey’s progress. I will definitely use Gabby again when my sitter is unable to assist.”

Aviah was so nice to accept a last minute daycare request. She has a large area for the dogs and a wonderful fenced back yard. We really appreciated the time she took with us when dropping off our dogs, the care that they received, the communications, and photos. Highly recommend! Very professional!
Violet LOVED her play dates at Shane and Brittany’s! They took such wonderful care of her so we could visits the sites in Washington that were not dog friendly. Being from out of state it was hard to leave her with strangers, but they welcomed her into their home like family! They kept me informed all day long about her care, and sent tons of pictures of her playing with their dogs and other fur-guests. It was wonderful to be able to enjoy our days as tourists without worrying one bit about our baby girl. We cannot recommend them more highly!
Cristhian is extremely responsive and super nice. He was gentle with my old boy, Major, and very gracious when Major had an accident 😰 His house is easily accessible and he has plenty of open space on the lower level for hanging out with pups! Greatly appreciate Cristhian and would recommend him 🙂
Angela was fantastic with Frank! She was incredibly responsive and made sure Frank got all the exercise and attention his energetic self needs. It’s clear she genuinely cares, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her going forward!
Samantha obviously loves dogs and my two beagles were very happy with her. She sent periodic updates and photos and took my beags on a good sniffing walk during their daycare experience. She also messaged me with a question when she noticed one of my dogs shaking his paw in his sleep. There was a minor issue of miscommunication regarding pickup time on the second day, but otherwise it was a good experience.

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 Fort Meade 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 4,910 sitters in Fort Meade, 87% 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.
