“Carole was great! She responded quickly and sent lots of pictures. My pup definitely enjoyed himself! He came home well cared for and tired from all the play. He got along well with her dog Zoey. Even though Carole is 45 plus minutes away from me, I will definitely make that drive again so she can watch my dog.”
“This was our first time leaving Bailey with a sitter. Amanda exceeded all our expectations. She was very patient in answering our questions and concerns. Bailey had a blast running around in their yard. Every pic was of her jumping and playing. Thank you for taking such great care of our dog! Would definitely recommend Amanda to anyone!”
“Tiffany was great with our two dogs. This was the first time I have used Rover, and was a little nervous as one of our dogs is a rescue dog and gets scared easily. Tiffany communicated timely and sent photos of how they were doing. She is an excellent dog sitter and will use her again!”
“Sarah was super sweet, and my little girlie had a blast playing with the other very nice dogs during the day. Sarah even stayed in the room with her when she had anxiety at night which is just so kind. I know that Matilda enjoyed the large outdoor areas to run and explore! Thank you, Sarah!”
“Janette and her family were so wonderful watching our new puppy Simon! She proactively sent updates and Simon was treated like a member of the family. We’ll definitely be repeat customers!”
“My guys enjoyed their time with Amanda. We scheduled a Meet & Greet on the day she received my request. My guys loved her fenced in yard. Amanda sent photos through the day and the buys were happy when I picked them up the next day. I will definitely reccomend and use her services again.”
“William and Kristen are true dog people- loving, caring and sensitive to your furry family member’s needs. They were prompt in getting back to us and kept us posted with pics and fun comments. Asha seemed very “at home” in the their home when I picked her up. Thx guys for treating our pup like one of your own!!”
“Jennifer saved us with a last minute booking and it was a great experience for our pup. We will definitely book with her again. She kept us posted with updates and pics. Easy meet and greet because she only takes 1 animal at a time and does not have a pup, so I didn't need to worry about Sully getting along with another pup. Such a relief and peace of mind.”
“I recently had the pleasure of leaving my dog, Finn, in Chonlada's care, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that Chonlada treats her furry guests as if they were her own. Finn had a fantastic time running around and exploring the spacious outdoor area. Chonlada kept us updated throughout the weekend, sharing photos and messages that really put our minds at ease. It was incredibly reassuring to know Finn was having such a great time. We will definitely be using her services again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Melissa is a very special pet sitter!! Our dog had a hard first couple days trying to settle in as it was only his second time in someone else’s home over night. She went above and beyond to help him feel comfortable. I received lots of pictures of Winston doing his favorite things! I know that he was well taken care of with Melissa!”
“As always, Kristin is awesome. She is so responsive and communicative. I love that Wyatt got a bath this time after a long week of "vacation" at her house. He is always exhausted and happy when he comes home.”
“Diego and Amelia are wonderful! They have a warm and inviting home, your pet will be happy here! My dog stayed with them for a week and he was very well taken care of. I got updates and pictures daily and they were very responsive.”
“Wendy and Daniel were absolutely wonderful. We get nervous leaving our Boston terrier if the person is not familiar with the brachiocephalic breed and they made us so comfortable at the meet and greet! Barney had the best time and can’t wait to book again.”
“Jetzy was awesome with our little frenchie. She provided daily updates, and was able to accommodate his special needs. Our dog had a ton of fun with Captain. Would absolutely recommend and use Jetzy and family again!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Frederick
Jenna was AWESOME while watching Nana when we went on vacation. It was a very last-minute request, and we got stuck in traffic on the way home (unavoidable) so we even ran a bit late at pick-up, but Jenna could not have been more accommodating and kinder! Nana loved her time with Jenna and her family, and we loved seeing the pictures while we were away! :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise 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 Frederick 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 Frederick.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Frederick 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 PA 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.
