“Michelle is a wonderful cat sitter! She took great care of Ollie and is highly communicative. Will definitely be reaching out to her again for future cat boarding.”
“Anthony did a fantastic job sitting for our pup! His communication was top-notch, and he kept us updated throughout the entire stay with photos and check-ins. Everything went super smoothly, and we couldn't be happier with the overall service. Highly recommend Anthony to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Crystal is such a thoughtful and caring sitter! Every time I take Scooter he comes out of his shell more and more. It’s been amazing watching him blossom. I’m so grateful to have found Crystal. She is a blessing to me and my furbaby!”
“Angela was amazing in caring for my dog while we were on vacation. She took great care of my elderly dog and gave him all of his daily medications. She communicated at least once a day and responded very quickly if I had any questions or concerns. I plan to rebook her the next time we need her care. 10/10 would recommend!”
“This is our third time going with Jasmine as our sitter and we couldn’t be happier. She updates us daily with awesome pictures of both our dogs. She also lets us know how they did and if there is anything she is concerned about them or their health. She is our go to whenever we need our pups well taken care of.”
“My pup always has a great time. I never have to worry because I know he’s well taken care of and he loves it there. We have had 3 visits so far and look forward to our next one.”
“I don't know if I can sing her praises loud enough, but I'll try :o) Marliez has been watching our sweet boy Racha, every Saturday for over the past 6 months. Our furball absolutely Loves her and her furbabies. She does so many fun things with him, not only several walks a day, but playing in the doggie fields, leash free and even doggie Pool parties, which Racha LOVED. She sends pictures all the time, which warms my heart. RECENTLY, Marliez watched our Racha while we were out of town. She kept him for a week and every day we would get pics. We could see our baby playing, and napping and eating, just loving life. (I was afraid he might not want to come home he was having such a good time ) Marliez is truly wonderful and a special person when it comes to our pets. I Highly Recommend Marliez, you will not find another person that will love your dog like its her own. We All Love her”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! They welcomed our pup for a last-minute weekend stay and gave him such a comfortable, happy place to settle in. Their dog was a wonderful playmate, and the frequent updates and lots of photos made it easy to relax knowing he was having a great time. They were communicative throughout and incredibly accommodating as our schedule kept changing. We’re so grateful for the care and flexibility, and would happily book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Very understanding and patient with my two pit bulls! Took them to the dog park every day and gave them lots of attention. I received daily updates and pictures! Definitely recommend!”
“Jasmine was wonderful! She kept both of my dogs over a long weekend and they had so much fun. She sent daily pictures and videos and she was always in contact with me. I will definitely use her again.”
“Annette is an exceptional dog sitter! She is very knowledgeable about dog psychology and went out of her way to ensure my dog had a good stay, and also educated me on ways to help reduce his anxiety. I am beyond impressed with her care.”
“Priscilla treated my Dog Rourou as her own. She is so loving, patient and understanding! If you are stressed out (as I was) because you can’t seem to trust anyone to take care of your dog while you are away, then I would highly recommend Priscilla!”
“Alex took great care of my Mini Aussie Tango these last several days, including timely communication and updates! His place with the large enclosed grass yard was perfect for Tango to get her energy out. She really enjoyed her time with Alex’s dog Reese and came home happy and exhausted!”
“Bo and I feel so fortunate to have found Felice! We used her for the first time this past weekend. I was nervous because Bo has the worse separation anxiety and would literally stop eating while he is away from me. But as soon as we met Felice I could tell he liked her and her home. Well, Felice took such great care of him that he finished the food I sent with him! (Which is a first!!!) Felice kept me updated with lots of pictures of him and he looked very comfortable and HAPPY! He came home vibrant and content! I could tell he really enjoyed his stay in her home! I already told Felice I plan to use her again.”
“Jacquline was very efficient with feedback and she sent pictures of bailey enjoying her time with Jacquline family. Jacquline is kind and loves animals. She and her daughter was the perfect match for bailey while I was on vacation. I would definitely work with Jacquline again.🥰🥰”
“Lorna is the best! She was very kind and loving to our pup, Milo. She sent updates throughout his stay and even watched him for an extra day with last minute notice. We have already rebooked our next visit! 🙂”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gambrills
Elizabeth provided exceptional care for our dog Ace. She sent photos and updates. We had a meet & greet before boarding Ace, and Elizabeth asked questions to make sure our dog would get along with other dogs in her home. She also asked about Ace's daily routines and likes/dislikes. She clearly cares deeply about providing a safe and happy environment for the dogs in her care. She has a large yard, plenty of toys, and her home is a great space for the dogs. We will definitely use her again if the need arises.
Brittany was absolutely phenomenal with our sweet ole lady Maple! She sent pictures and took such great care of her. She even accommodated us an extra night last minute due to our cruise getting back late. She is wonderful and I highly recommend her! Maple didn't want to leave! 🤣
Jessica was phenomenal with our dog, Sophia. Sophia struggles with a bit of separation anxiety and she usually boarded with my parents but since PCS’ing to Maryland, my husband and I struggled with what to do with her when we needed to go on extended vacations. Sophia did struggle a bit with accidents and feeling nervous (even chewing through her leash) but Jessica did not express any frustrations with our dog! In fact, she went above and beyond in getting her treats, calming chews, and finding new systems to help Sophia feel more at ease while we were away! I’m hesitant to leave Sophia but I’m happier knowing there’s someone out there in the world that has immeasurable patience to handle our sweet girl!
Beth and our pup Finn are now great friends. Beth took great care of our boy, gave him lots of cuddles and play time, and sent us much appreciated daily updates. What a great relief to know he was in caring hands--being able to travel is much less stressful when we know our dog is happy. Thank you Beth!

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.
94% of sitters in Gambrills 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 Gambrills 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 Gambrills.
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 Gambrills. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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 Gambrills 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 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.
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.
