“Sandra took such great care of both our very large dogs and cat for ten days. Very detailed with her notes and consistent with pictures. They had long walks, play time , food bowl refresh and cuddle time. Couldn’t be more pleased for the love care and attention she provided to my fur babies.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for my neighbors since I was around 12, feeding them, playing with their pets, and letting them out or taking them on walks. I’m very responsible and have my own transportation! I’m not currently working so I am available almost all the time to play, walk, and feed pets. For boarding I can also do anytime! I have an un fenced yard with one dog, but since I am not working I able to do walks often. I would also do the same if someone else had an un fenced yard.
About: Hi! I’m Julia 😊☀️ For as long as I can remember, I’ve been surrounded by dogs. Growing up, I had all kinds—from dachshunds and pit bulls to Australian Shepherds and lovable mutts—and I’ve fallen in love with each and every one. I’ve previously worked at a veterinary hospital as well as a pet boarding facility, gaining hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I’m now a stay-at-home mom to two beautiful, animal-loving girls who may occasionally join me. I truly believe dogs are best friends and should be treated as such. You can trust that I will care for your dog as if they were my own. I’m at home every day with my two daughters so I have a wide open schedule. I took a 3 year break from rover to raise my babies and now I’m looking to get back to dog walking! I have a lot of availability and love to be outdoors- rain or shine. I live on a 6 acre farm that has some areas fenced and lots of room for my 2 dogs to run and explore. I love to let any dogs that I watch get out some energy by running and getting to sniff & explore everything in sight.
“Jessica was great! This is the second time we have booked with her. She was able to help us out and do drop ins for our dogs last minute. She communicates everything and is great about double checking details. Our pups were in great care!”
About: I enjoy walking and playing with all dogs! I have owned a few dogs and cared for them since I was little. I currently have a Cane Corso. I also volunteer at the animals shelter. I am currently home from school and have plenty of time during the day to walk and engage with your dog. I am available Monday through Friday. I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and honest reports on the dog’s progress. I’ll use positive reinforcement and patience to help your dog feel safe and comfortable.
“We were very nervous to leave our cat alone for a week. Haley was attentive and patient during the meet and greet. She was empathetic to our nervousness and sent extra pics during her drop ins to make sure we felt confident Albert was doing okay. We especially appreciated the pics of his food and water. She listened and followed our instructions, made sure both locks on our doors were secure, and we came home to a happy cat and a home in perfect order. Will absolutely be booking with Haley anytime we need care for Albert.”
About: I've always wanted a dog but I never got a chance to have one growing up since my mom was allergic. Now that I have my own place I've realized that my true passion is taking care of other people’s dogs. I have my own reliable transportation and would be able to drop in for visits or walks. I am currently working full time in healthcare. The days I work vary but I do work 12 hour days 3 times a week. If one or more of the days you are requesting falls on one of my work days, your pet would have to be okay going without a bathroom break for up to 8 hours (I have a family member at home that would be able to take your pet for a walk while I am working). For boarding I live in a one bedroom townhouse with a fenced yard that is away from the main road. If you would like to board your pet with me, I will still be respectful of all the rules/boundaries you have for your pet at home (not allowed on the furniture, no people food, etc).
“Chinwe was a great sitter and was friendly and responsive. She came by for an in-person meet and greet and communicated when she would be visiting each day. Rabbits can be messy with their hay and she took the time to vacuum and clean their area. I returned home to two happy bunnies. I will be booking again in the future!”
“Breonia was amazing! She was very good at communicating and updating me on Jeter while I was away. She took great care of him and the pictures she provided show that he was happy with her. I would definitely work with Breonia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caretaker for their pets!”
“Ilia was so with it! She made special accommodations for me, made herself available, and was super communicative throughout the process. She was so kind and helpful. I would highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, piranha, bunnies, turtles and rodents, etc! I have always loved and seen animals as the more primal side of our nature but that’s one of the purest forms of love that one can give! I am currently working full time at NIH, and after about 3:30pm, I work with animals around my community. Weekends I like to volunteer with people struggling with bigger dogs and temperament issues. Walking and leash training is key in my experience. I have a big yard for good time and to keep them safe! I love being outside, and making sure that the animals are safe while doing so is of the utmost importance to me !
“Holly did an amazing job with our French Bulldog! She had great communication the entire time, met all expectations and were confident our dog was in good hands. Would definitely use Holly in the future!”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life and have been baby sitting dogs for the last 25 years. I’m comfortable with all types of dogs; shy dogs, big dogs, little dogs. I understand how to approach all sorts of dog personalities, including, Divas :-) I telework 100% from my home. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. My neighborhood is dog friendly and has tons of walking trails! I do ask for accurate drop off and pick up times so that I can plan my day accordingly. If there is any schedule change to those times I just ask for communication so that I can adjust my day. My Doggie Day Care hours are from 7:30AM - 5:00PM Boarding drop off and pick up hours are from 7:30 - 6:30PM I have a fenced in yard and one medium sized dog to keep your fur baby company. I have magnetic screens so dogs can come and go as needed. My dog often sun bathes on the deck! My home has many floor to ceiling windows that my dog uses to people watch for hours. I have a dedicated doggy room with dog friendly furniture and plenty of toys. No need to bring your kennel or dog bowls as I have plenty for your fur baby's stay with me. I have baby monitors throughout my home which allows me to see or talk to your fur baby.
About: I’ve cared for dogs for over five years and currently raise a Border Collie/German Shepherd mix, so I understand high-energy breeds and puppy training. I’m consistent, patient, and attentive to routines. I have experience with crate training, basic commands, teething stages, and managing excitement around children. I treat every dog like my own and prioritize safety, structure, and plenty of exercise. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine since I already structure my days around my own dog’s schedule. I’m used to morning and evening walks, feeding routines, playtime, and weekly training sessions. I spend my work breaks playing with my own dog. I plan ahead and prioritize consistency, so adding additional pets to my routine feels seamless and well-organized. Safety is always my top priority. I follow each pet’s routine closely, keep doors and gates secured, and maintain a calm, structured environment. I’m attentive to body language and behavior, especially with high-energy dogs, and I never leave pets unsupervised in unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and stick to all instructions to ensure their pet feels comfortable and secure. When walking dogs. I always make sure to be attentive and watch our surroundings

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Glenn Dale stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Glenn Dale choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Glenn Dale with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
