“Third time for Daisy and Charlie to stay with Andy - and when I dropped them off, they ran to go get a walk! Great care and communication with Andy. I'm so glad that my dogs are safe and busy during trips. Thank you, Andy!”
“Byamba and family did a great job watching Banjo for us, communicating throughout his stay, and sending us pictures daily. We appreciate them helping us in a quick bind! They were very kind, walked Banjo twice a day, and spoiled him!”
“Grateful again for Erin’s attention and loving care for my pupper. She is kind, positive in outlook, communicative, and reliable. There is no greater comfort than knowing my pup is in her very capable, thoughtful hands when I have to go out of town.”
“We left our cat for one night and Anush was great! She made our cat - and us - feel very comfortable. She sent us lots of pictures and treated our cat like she was her own. We will definitely use her if we need to board our cat again.”
“Kyle was such a wonderful sitter for my pup over the long weekend! Ringo was well taken care of, socializing with his dogs, and I received daily updates and pictures. It was a wonderful, calm environment.”
“Michael did a great job with my little rescue Yorkie, Gracie. He sent pictures and updates on how she was doing and was very communicative throughout the process. Gracie is a velcro dog who is very shy and anxious around new people and dogs. She seemed to acclimate to Michael and his daughter quickly which I could tell in the pictures. She had been very content and happy once since I picked her up. Will definitely be boarding Gracie with him again in the future.”
“Jesper and his wife took amazing care of Arlo! Him and brownie are the best of friends. I got so many amazing pictures and felt he was very loved and taken care of. Arlo would love to stay with Jesper and his wife and brownie again soon!”
“Shayla is an amazing sitter who pours love and care into the doggies, her home is also very well arranged to have the dogs join her comfortably. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Jiao kept in close communication about our dog. She sent several pictures and videos per day. My dog acted happy and playful in her house. She came recommended by a friend and I would definitely book with her again.”
“Anne Marie took such great care of Danny, she was patient and kind to him as a senior dog and just loved on him! I will definitely be asking Anne Marie to care for him again when I need it.”
“We’ve been using Nadia’s dog sitting services repeatedly and couldn’t be happier. Our dog is always well cared for, and Nadia goes above and beyond when it comes to communication and accommodating our needs. We’ll continue booking with her and recommend her without hesitation.”
“Colleen and her family took wonderful care of my dog. She is a very trustworthy and conscientious dog mom. I appreciate that her home has a fenced yard. She also was able to administer daily high drops to my senior dog. I received updates and photos. Thank you Colleen and family!”
“As always -- nothing but top-notch TLC for Ella when she stays with Alex and Daniel! We couldn't be luckier to be able to rely on them to keep our girl happy, healthy, and loved while we're away.”
“Haydenn was an awesome sitter for our Bulldog! He was super communicative and accommodating even when our travel plans changed. We’ll definitely hire Haydenn again!”
“Jie is so amazing! She watched my cats for an overnight stay and she was so accommodating. She has a perfect set up and space for them. Definitely will rebook with her!”
“Justin and Jeremy took great care of our dog while we were out of the country for two weeks. It was our dog’s first time staying with some he didn’t know, so we were a bit nervous how it would go. However, despite being cautious around new people, he just trotted off into their apartment with them at drop off. Justin and Jeremy provided an update and photo(s) each day, and it was clear that our dog was in good hands. They are super responsive and professional. I would recommend them to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
“Andrew and Adva were fantastic with my older pup-they helped her manage her mobility issues, took her for lots of slow, easy walks, and kept her comfortable with constant company. They sent daily updates and photos too. Andrew and Adva put me at ease right away; they are kind, calm, and flexible. I didn't feel apprehensive about leaving my senior dog for five days. I will absolutely request them again!”
“Thank you Jackson for taking such good care of my pets on such short notice. What a great place for the pups to stay. Enclosed backyard gave them the freedom they need but Jackson also followed my instructions on not having the dogs off leash as they have a bad habit of taking off. Will definitely use Jackson again when the pets need a place to stay.”
“Andrea and Michael were wonderful hosts for our two dogs! Our lab is a bit introverted but they made her feel right at home and both dogs were very happy in the photos they sent and when we came for pickup. We had a last minute adjustment on our drop off time and they were wonderfully accommodating. I’m so grateful that they took such good care of our sweet girls!”
“Gabriela was wonderful! This was our first time using Rover and she made us feel so comfortable. She sent us daily pictures and was kind when our older pup had an accident inside. Would absolutely (and will absolutely) use her again!”

Stephanie was great. She took care of my two dogs, Moka and Zoe on a Saturday/Sunday so I could attend a wedding. Moka is around 5, requiring a medication 2x day and Zoe is definitely a senior dog. She sent me photos and they appeared to have had a good time. She was great a communication, and understanding when my flight was delayed and I arrived later than hoped. We'll happily use her again if circumstances allow.
Stella was in such good hands. We dropped her off at the end of some “tummy” issues and LeAnn and her family administered her medication and kept me updated on her tummy status as she got better. We received daily pictures and updates. Stella had a blast with Oscar!
Sydney was so great! We left our dog, Bruno, in her care for 11 nights and she was so great with communication and occasional photos. We felt very comfortable the entire time and knew he was in good hands. He came home happy! Would definitely recommend and hoping Bruno can visit again when we need to go out of town.
Diana was an amazing caretaker for my dog Baxter! It’s clear how much she loves animals. Diana met with Baxter before my trip to get acquainted with him and Baxter immediately took to her. Her home was lovely and inviting. She sent me updates multiple times a day and my pup looked relaxed and happy in every photo. Her dog Charlie was a wonderful host too! Baxter was in great hands while I was gone. I am looking forward to being able to have Baxter stay with her the next time I need to go out of town. Thank you Diana and Charlie!
Andrea and her family are amazing! We truly don’t know what we’d do without them and they’ll be our go-to for boarding for as long as they continue to offer their services. I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, thoughtful family who will treat your dog like their own
We are incredibly grateful for the care and patience our sitter showed with our challenging dog. When the original plan wasn't working, he thoughtfully adapted and came up with an alternative approach that prioritized our pup's comfort, safety, and well-being. He was willing to try the suggestions we provided and remained flexible throughout the stay. Despite some challenges, he stayed committed, followed through on the plan, and made sure our dog was cared for and not overly stressed. His dedication, communication, and willingness to problem-solve gave us peace of mind during a difficult situation. We truly appreciate his efforts and would recommend him to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter. Anyone familiar with Shibas knows they can be a handful so his patience and understanding meant a great deal to us. Thank you for taking such good care of Yoshi. ❤️

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 Glen Echo home-away-from-home, 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 Glen Echo.
<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 Glen Echo 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 , 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 .
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.
