“Buddy was in good hands and slept solidly after his two days of visiting. We will use Darshini and Joseph again in the near future. Thank you for taking care of our Buddy.”
“Min and Matthew are so awesome! Daily photos and updates of my dog’s time with them gave me such peace while I was away. Their love for him and care for him was top notch in every way.”
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats and currently have Berlioz, my 6-year-old tabby, and Chibi, my 6-month-old Husky. I love giving pets the time, attention, patience, and affection they deserve. As a nurse, being responsible and attentive comes naturally to me, and I’d love to give your furry family member the same loving care I give my own! 🐶🐱❤️ I'm currently working as a full-time nurse, but I only work 3 days a week which gives me plenty of time in the rest of the week to take care of your furry pets! We live in a single family home with an unfenced backyard but in a quiet neighborhood. There's plenty of lawn space and a 10x10 ft dog pen in our backyard.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 9 years old, owning my own pet and taking care of the family pets everyday. We will make food for our dogs daily owning 7 dogs in an area where we were 7 family home with in the same community. I currently work a par time job from and have plenty of time to care your pet, please schedule in advance or check availability :) I have a fenced yard to keep your dog free and attended when need or inside as weather permits. Also enjoy my dog friendly neighborhood for a nice walk.
“Christa was pleasant and welcoming. She obviously loves cats. The only problem was our cat, Maurice, came home and wanted the attention that had been lavished on him! Spoiled! We'll definitely use Christa again. Thanks for such good care and affection.”
About: Hello, my name is Danielle. I used work as a veterinary technician and I am looking to drop in pet sit and walk pets on my off time. I personally have 3 dogs and 4 cats so I am very much used to taking care of pets on a daily basis. I am also experienced in pet first aid and dog/cat CPR experienced. I can also watch small caged animals in my home. I have experience with some exotics and small 'pocket' pets. Please let me know if you have any questions! Thank you! In the mornings I make sure all of my pets are taken care of then after my kids are off to school I am available to come check in on your fur babies! I always make sure doors are shut and fences are secure for outside time. I always make sure leashes fit snuggly to reduce the risk of a leash slip.
“Kemberlei did such a great job with our dog Luna. Luna only weighs 5 pounds, but she makes up for it with her attitude!! She demands a lot of attention. Kemberlei kept us up to date with daily photos from the dog park and all the fun things that Luna got to do with Kemberlei and her family! So thankful to find her! Giant thank you to Kemberlei and can’t wait to go out of town again!”
“Emily took great care of my small dog Maude when I left her with Emily and her family for two nights while I was in town for a wedding. Emily was easy to communicate with took Maude on errands (I asked her not to leave Maude alone as she has separation anxiety) and Maude seemed to have a great time with Emily and her family. Thanks again!”
“I really appreciated the pictures and videos throughout my dog’s stay. I felt completely at ease leaving him in such capable hands where I knew he got lots of attention, fun, and care!”
“Sayuri was phenomenal. She and her husband took excellent care of our elderly dog and went above and beyond to make him comfortable. He was totally at ease there. Good communication. We will be happy to use her again.”
About: For as long as I can remember, dogs have been a huge part of my life. With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, I’ve learned that every pup is different and deserves care that’s just as unique as they are. For the past 7+ years, I’ve also been fostering dogs through local rescues. Helping dogs transition from uncertain beginnings into loving homes has been incredibly rewarding and has given me experience with many different temperaments, energy levels, and personalities. The idea of boarding dogs in my home came from a challenge I faced myself — finding a place that truly felt safe, loving, and comfortable for my own dogs when I had to go away. I wanted more than just a place for them to stay. I wanted them to feel cared for, understood, and treated like family. When your dog stays with me they will enjoy plenty of safe, supervised playtime in a large, fully fenced yard, giving them space to run, explore, and burn off those zoomies. Whether your dog loves active play or relaxing cuddle time, their comfort, safety, and happiness always come first. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. We’re used to having dogs around and all the activity and responsibility that comes with them, so caring for pets feels like a normal part of everyday life. When we don’t have any extras here, the house actually feels a little too quiet—like something is missing! I want every pet in my home to feel as comfortable and at home as possible. I try to keep their routine and familiar comforts as much as I can—if they sleep in the bed at home, they’re welcome in the bed here; if they love curling up on the couch, that’s where they’ll be. My goal is to make their stay feel like a vacation, not a kennel stay. I want them to feel safe, relaxed, loved, and right at home while their family is away.
“Leah was absolutely amazing with our two dogs! From the moment we dropped them off, it was clear they were treated like part of the family. She provided a warm, caring environment that made them feel completely at home, and we had total peace of mind while we were away. We came back to two happy, relaxed pups, which says everything about the level of care she provides. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Leah to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”
“Couldn’t be more grateful for finding this family. Imer and Michelle are the best. We are so happy to have them as neighbors. Our dogs loved them. Imer sending update for our dogs two or three times of a day.”
“Elisa and James were the best! They loved on our Howie as their own. Howie had a great experience and was extremely well cared for! I’ll definitely be using them again!”
About: Proven ability to build strong connections with pets, ensuring their well-being and happiness and have references about it I was volunteer in animal control, where there were many dogs and many cats with many conditions as challenges every day (behavior problems, illnesses, senior care, puppy care, feral feline trapping, feral feline restraining) Certified veterinary assistant. I am also part of a non profit organization that seeks for dogs and cats rights, wellness, and sterilization for free in Mexico, this is just a plus, but during conferences or campaigns we interact with many dogs. I take very seriously a pet sit job. I believe that to be the best pet sitter not only takes love but also knowledge and discipline. I work part time, 3 days a week. Mondays , Tuesdays, and Thursdays I leave for work for 8 hours. when boarding during those days, dogs stay inside my house waiting for me to arrive. In clients home, I follow their instructions, and I start with a walk and treats if they allow me so I can initiate a bond with the pet. if pet is not friendly and clients ask to just feed and clean I still do it. In my house, I introduce both dogs (mine and clients in a short walk outside my house, then in my yard and finally inside my house) I had never have a problem with my dog and other dogs and have references about it
“This was the second time we boarded with Chloe. Once again, all went well! We received a photo and a video of Nellie during her stay. The absolute best thing that I can say about Chloe was how much we appreciated that somehow we double paid without realizing. However, Chloe did and immediately reimbursed us! Her care of our pup and her honesty are highly valued!”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Frederick is $50

Hank’s home away from home. He is always welcomed with so much love and attention — this time he didn’t even want to get in the car to come back! As an “old man” with hip problems, Hank needs a little extra care, and this wonderful family always caters to his needs with patience, affection, and genuine kindness. The pictures tell the whole story. It is incredibly reassuring to know he is treated with such tenderness and handled so gently. I’m grateful every time Hank stays with them.
Hannah took great care of my dog, Sheru, and kept me updated while I was traveling. She was responsive and flexible with drop-off and pickup arrangements. She also noticed signs of a possible UTI and thoughtfully suggested checking with a vet. I really appreciated her care and concern for Sheru. I highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!
Priscila and Maria did an outstanding job taking care of Shenanigans and Fiddlesticks, and we highly recommend them. We made a major goof at dropoff--we remembered the dogs' treat bag but not their food! Since we were in a rush to get to the airport, we had to ask them to buy food for the dogs, which we reimbursed. Thank goodness, they helped us out with this. Also, travel delays meant that we picked up the pups a few hours later than expected, but they were very accommodating. We received daily updates and pictures of the dogs, which we very much appreciated. Priscila and Maria are outstanding Rover hosts, and we will definitely use their services again.
I was extremely happy with the excellent care Daisy received! She was well cared for, and I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. The service was wonderful, and I truly appreciate the care and attention given to Daisy. I will definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her!
Adrienne was so great with our dog. She was very responsive and communicative every day. I enjoyed seeing the updates with photos that she sent day. Knowing that Lexi was happy and well taken care makes a world of difference when you’re traveling and have to leave your dog. Thank you Adrienne!
Juan took great care of my pups while we were away for a few days — I received frequent photo updates, he took them on long walks, let them run freely at the dog park, and provided a comfy dog bed for their stay. I’m pretty sure my goldendoodle was disappointed to leave Juan and come back home, lol. When I picked them up they were the most calm, well-rested, and not dehydrated — it’s usually the opposite when I’ve picked them up from boarding or a sitter in the past. I’ll definitely book with Juan again in the future!
Emily was wonderful as always! Nini stayed with Emily for a week and we knew she would feel right at home with the excellent care that Emily provides. She also got to have an amazing playtime with her furry friends and enjoy walks everyday. We are lucky to have Emily host Nini while we are away! Thanks Emily!
Laszlo spent his first consecutive nights away from us with Justin, Kacy, and their pups. It went great and he was well looked after. We're glad he had a nice yard to run around in and make some friends. They're incredibly responsive and he seems to be comfortable to be there. All we could ask for. Thank you!
I cannot say enough good things about Nancy! She took such good care of my little one. I always get sad and anxious about being apart from my baby. Nancy was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding. I knew Millie would be in good hands. Nancy wanted to ensure to follow Millie’s routine and to make her as comfortable as possible. She spent a lot of time with her and took her on long walks. She also sent updates throughout the day. Highly recommend Nancy! We will definitely be reaching out to her again.
Chris & Gerry are simply THE BEST! I couldn’t say enough great things about them. So many beautiful updates every day while on vacation with heartwarming messages and adorable pics of our little Lexi. I was completely relaxed my entire vacation knowing Lexi was in such great hands! Can’t thank you enough!

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.

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.
