“My old arthritic girl did so good at Catherine and Nikhit's house! She gets anxious when she's away from home but she got so much love and attention there. Thank you so much!”
“Amanda and her family took such great care of George when I was gone for a long trip. I could tell by the frequent updates and photos that he was having a great time. She was very communicative when he had an upset stomach and kept me updated. I would not hesitate to have George stay with them again!”
“Jodee and AJ took amazing care of my shy pup while I was away for a few days. They have a great indoor and outdoor space and spent time with us during a meet and great to make sure all would go smoothly. Sent daily videos and pics to keep me reassured he was doing well. Would 100% recommend!”
“Allie is wonderful! She has watched my pup twice and each time I’ve felt confident he is being very well taken care of. She was also incredibly understanding after weather delayed my flight home and I had to pick him up much later than expected. Would highly recommend!”
“Nani was AMAZING!!! She sent pictures throughout the day, took Tootie out for walks and allowed Tootie to play with her dogs. I would absolutely book Nani again and recommend her to friends. Thank you so much!”
“Our dog, Hebert, absolutely LOVES staying with Alissa and Rich! They are flexible, communicative, and take such great care of him. Bonus: Alissa captures the best pictures of all his adventures! Whether it’s running in the yard, exploring the neighborhood on walks, napping on the couch, or “playing” with the garden hose (aka biting the water lol) - so cute and they always bring a smile to our faces!”
“Christine is the best; to say I’m a helicopter dog mom is an understatement but I literally never worry when she’s with Christine. My husband pretends he doesn’t worry but he loves seeing the updates and videos of her having a blast and playing non-stop fetch with her friend/s! We are so deeply appreciative.”
“Natalie and Bryce did a great job watching my Australian shepherd, who needs a lot of exercise and mental stimulation. I got plenty of photos and detailed descriptions of her days with them and she came back very relaxed and happy. Cusco is also a great playmate!”
“Very impressed with Erwin’s professionalism, attention to detail & complimentary bath he provided Smokey before dropping him back off at home. I will definitely utilize him again & highly recommend his services! Thank you.”
“Aisha is the perfect match for Maggie. She is dependable, sends me pictures daily, and shares with my updates and concerns. Every time Maggie arrives to Aisha’s home, Maggie is very excited. They adore each other so very much !”
“Roxsand was amazing. She is very personable and so attentive with the pups. My Chloe girl made new friends and was kept safe. Roxsand is extremely knowledgeable about caring for pets and her home is filled with love. I highly recommend her for keeping your fur baby.”
“Behice was absolute amazing with my fur baby Scotty! She was super flexible when I needed to change my pickup time and sent daily photo and video updates. Scotty loved her so much he didn’t want to leave :). Very highly recommend”
“Terez watched Reese for us during a quick weekend getaway. She was very flexible with our schedule in accommodating a pick up and drop off for us since we lived so conveniently close. Reese felt right at home with her. We will definitely use Terez again!”
“This is our second time booking with Gio and Vanessa and we couldn't have been happier with the experience and the service provided. Our fur baby Sophia, spent 11 days with Gio and Vanessa while we traveled out of the country and knowing that she was being well taken care of and loved on by Gio and Vanessa allowed our family to enjoy our trip without worrying about our baby. They kept us updated with messages, photos and videos and we came home to a happy puppy who probably believed that she she was on her own little vacation. Thank you Gio and Vanessa, you will always be our first choice for dog sitting.”
“I can’t recommend Zulu enough! She took such wonderful care of my dog while I was away. She was so attentive and sent updates, making sure my furry baby felt happy and comfortable the entire time. I’ll definitely reach out to her again the next time I need a sitter.”
“Daniel C. and his fiancé did a wonderful job taking care of my Abby, who got along very well with their dog, Frito. They have a perfect setup, a lovely home with a sizable backyard and a nearby walking path along Four Mile Run. Daniel is highly responsive, goes the extra mile, and communicates very well with frequent photos and updates. We’re hoping to board Abby with them again!”
“⸻ I couldn’t be more grateful for Dena and the amazing care she gave my dog, Chewie! From the moment I dropped him off, I felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. She treated him like he was her own—giving him tons of love, attention, and making sure he was comfortable the whole time. What really stood out to me was how she kept me updated every step of the way with messages and photos, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she watches. I highly recommend Dena to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, and truly dedicated to caring for your furry family member. Thank you again, Dena!”
“Monica took such good care of Harlow. At the beginning it was a bit rough because Harlow has never stayed with anyone else. However; once she met the other dogs she had a ball. I would def use and recommend Monica again. She def cares for your pups while you’re away.”

Erin watched our dog, Penny, for 10 days while we were out of town. I asked to meet her and her pups before arranging such a long stay and she encouraged it :) This set my mind at ease being able to meet in person first. At drop off, I shared I was feeling a bit anxious leaving Penny for a longer stay and Erin offered to communicate often. Each day, she touched base with me at least once with pictures, videos, and messages about how Penny was doing. This made me feel so much better and allowed me to enjoy my trip. Thanks Erin!
CJ was absolutely fantastic with my dog! Having never left my pet with anyone besides family, I was quite nervous. After searching through countless sitters, I chose CJ, and I couldn't have made a better decision. He provided daily photos and updates, and the overall vibe was just perfect! My dog looked so comfortable that I wondered if she would even want to come home! Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience!
I had an amazing experience with Maya!!! She was incredible kind, reliable and attentive throughout the time my sky was with her. I really appreciated how quick she responded whenever I checked in, a the updates gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that my sky was cared for and loved. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!!!
Hanna and Fabio are Peanut Butter’s favorites and took excellent care of him. We received timely updates and felt very comfortable leaving our pup in their care. Fabio really went above and beyond and worked with our schedule to accommodate pick up and drop offs and we really appreciate their flexibility. Thanks for everything!

Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
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 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 Meet & Greet.
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. 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.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
