“Shuling was fantastic! I was very nervous to have my pup Miso puppy sat for the first time, but I needed a sitter for the holiday weekend, with very short notice. Shuling said yes immediately, and allowed me to come and meet her and her sweet pup Bear that same day. She really put me at ease. She kept Miso for 3 nights and sent several photos twice per day. I never had to worry at all. I can’t thank you enough, Shuling! Miso would love to come and hang out with you again sometime soon!”
“Michelle is the best. I’m pretty sure Giselle is missing her house and friends. I loved that she sent us pics every day. We have had Michelle watch Indy too and she always makes our puppies feel at home.”
“Can’t recommend Angela enough! Our kitty Púca had the best time with her. She spoilt him rotten! She sent us daily updates with photos and videos and made sure we didn’t have to worry about him at all while on vacation. It was clear Angel was taking exceptionally good care of him. We will definitely be using Angela again!”
“As Always Paisley is always comfortable and well cared for. Always willing to adapt the schedule in case of schedule changes. She’s always got other dogs to play with and is excited.”
“Kelly, Maurice and their family are wonderful. They’ve taken care of my dog, Hudson, several times and have become my go-to sitters. They take great care of him, send lots of pictures and videos and Hudson is always excited to see them when I drop him off. They’re very responsive and have been flexible when I needed in a pinch. They care for Hudson like he’s part of their family and I can relax knowing he’s in great hands with them!”
“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!”
“Ashley was amazing with Bingo and provided constant updates. She was very patient with him as it took him some time to get comfortable. Had some personal emergencies, so we had to extend Bingo’s stay, and she was very accommodating.”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our pup in Carla's home! Our dog was so well cared for, and Carla sent daily updates with pictures and videos. Her dog was incredibly sweet and got along great with ours. She did a great job balancing exercise with being mindful of our older dog's past surgeries and individual needs. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I am very happy to have come across this site and even happier to have come across Ms. Estela. We had an absolute wonderful experience with her. From the beginning she was very friendly, helpful, and communicative. She provided updates and daily pictures of Santy and kept us informed of his well being. As much as we were anxious leaving our dog behind for few days, she made us feel comfortable that he was in good hands. There are no words that could describe my gratitude for Estela’s service. I would definitely be using her service in the near future and 100% recommend her to anyone that needs a loving animal care taker.”
“Candice is very responsive and a great communicator. At our meet and greet, I knew immediately that our fur baby would be in good hands. We received updates and pictures throughout our dog’s stay, so we were never left wondering how things were going. I’m so happy to have found her.”
“Moose had another wonderful visit with Diana. Communication is great. Diana responds quickly and also sent pictures to let me know how Moose was doing throughout the day. He really seemed to enjoy his time with her.”
“Thank you Ms. Robin Tina seemed to have such a great time with you and it was great for her to be able to socialize with other dogs while she was there. Communication was excellent and I can tell you truly treated Tina as one of your own. I would recommend you to anyone!”
“Debra was incredible! Our first experience with Rover and our first time leaving our dog with someone outside of family. Debra sent photos and updates throughout the week which eased our minds and warmed our hearts. Our pup fit right in with the family and got so much attention and love. We 100% recommend Debra and will be using her again!”
“This was our second time leaving our dog Peach with them and she had the best time. It was a relief to know that she was in such good hands while we were out of the country. Jill kept in contact and sent regular pictures. 10/10 recommend them and will continue to use them!”
“This was my first time using Rover and it will not be my last. Felice, Ken, and Tyler treated my little girl like a princess. In each photo, she seemed to be having so much fun. Felice, Ken, and Tyler sent me numerous photos and included Riley in all of the family activities. When Ken realized Riley preferred to eat alone, he moved her feeding bowl to a more private area. The family was so attentive, and I will definitely book again.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Herald Harbor
Shuling took excellent care of our dog while we were away! She kept us updated with daily pictures, which gave us peace of mind and reassurance that our dog was in great hands. We truly appreciate her care and attentiveness and will definitely be booking with her again!
FANTASTIC!!! We received lots of updates on Ruby's activities, how she was settling into her new space and interacting with everyone. I'm an information Mom so receiving the detailed information Debra shared definitely eased my anxiety of leaving her for a long weekend. Ruby made herself right at home and was happy at pick up. Thankful to have found such a loving and positive soul to watch over our fur baby.
She is absolutely amazing, This was a last minute booking, which was no problem for her, she even took the time to meet fireball before hand.. She sent pics and kept in touch the whole time I was gone, made my trip so much better knowing my little guy was happy and being taken care of, It was like Fireball was apart of her family. I will definitely use her again and if you have a chance you should also.. I cant rave about her and her family enough!
Our dog Sierra received wonderful care with Kristin and her family -- very easy to communicate with, and we got regular updates of how she was doing. Kristin was very flexible when some of our travel plans had to be adjusted. We will definitely book again on our next trip!

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 Herald Harbor 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 Herald Harbor.
<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 Herald Harbor 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.
