“Joe was great—easy-going and accomodating. My dog had a great time with Joe and two other dogs! He messaged me updates and photos during the 7 days away from our dog, which was very reassuring. Joe even took my dog on a 5 mile run! Will definately book with Joe again. This was the first time using Rover.com, and I highly recommend. I also highly recommend your dog stay with JOE!”

“Stephanie was such a great host to my dog Bruno, she maintained communication/updates throughout the visit and was very attentive to my instructions for Bruno given he has a hard time adjusting to new places. Would definitely book with them again! -Lindsay”

“Jasmine and Stormi were great with Roxy. Roxy was transitioning between dog foods during her stay and Jasmine handled it like a pro. I would highly recommend Jasmine for your next trip.”

“Christian truly saved the day for me during a family emergency. She responded quickly, was very flexible, and took such good care of Caia. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Caia was with someone so kind and reliable. I’m very grateful and would absolutely trust her again.”

“Elizabeth was my first sitter using Rover and she will be my go-to from now on! She took great care of my love and sent lots of photos while I was away. I'm very grateful to have found Elizabeth!”

“Ryder had his first overnight stay with these wonderful humans and he loved it. Ryder is a regular with Janel, her husband and their two doggies and he always runs up to greet his second family whenever we arrive. Ryder is our first ever puppy and so we were naturally worried about doing everything right, including socializing our puppy and making sure we can leave him with others for the day or overnight when we can’t have him along. With Janel, our puppy is in good hands. Highly recommend!!!!”

“I can’t recommend Zulu enough! She took such wonderful care of my dog while I was away. She was so attentive and sent updates, making sure my furry baby felt happy and comfortable the entire time. I’ll definitely reach out to her again the next time I need a sitter.”

About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Matthew treated our pups like they were his own. They were super happy and very well taken care of. Fantastic communication. Easy going and easy to work with. My pups already want to go back. Thanks for the fantastic experience!”

“Patience was absolutely AMAZING!! She cared for my pup like she was family. Peaches acted like she didn’t want to come home. Lol! Patience communicates daily with videos and messages to provide reassurance that your fur baby is great hands. I would highly recommend her and look forward to booking with Patience again in the coming weeks. I cannot thank her enough for her support and the TLC she gave to Peaches.”

“I recently had my Bella stay with Vania for 5 days. When I booked the appointment which was short notice I was thankful that Vania was will to accommodate me. Vania went above and beyond to provide great care to Bella, this was her 2nd time out of the home and from the time I dropped her off it was a challenge just to get her to indoors. I am thankful to Vania for her wonderful care of Bella and will definitely book with her again in the future.”

“Best decision we have ever made was using Alli to care for our angel!!! Our pup was immediately welcomed into her family and our dog was so sad to leave her new friends when we picked her up! We got so many photos of our dog enjoying her stay which made our trip so much better. Cannot recommend Alli enough!!!”

“Donna is the best! My girl Finny is almost 17 years old and Donna is so patient and kind with her. I always know Finny will be safe and treated like family when I’m away.”

“Diego did a great job with our 7 month old puppy during a 2 week stay. It was our first time leaving him so we were pretty anxious, but from the second we dropped our pup off we felt at ease because Gus was happy and comfortable with Diego. We got pictures and videos of him having a nice time thought his stay that reassured us he was having a good time.”

“Very reliable. Melonie did outstanding in caring for Fitz. She made sure i see pictures daily. She became a 2nd Mom to Fitz; no adjustment needed when we dropped him off and he was happy and content when we picked him up. He’s normally anxious in change of environment but he really felt a home with Melonie and her household. No issues at all in our previous and current visits.”


“Kelly was a great! She was very communicative and sent lots of pics during our pup’s stay. He had lots of fun with another pup she was watching - we’d definitely book with her again :)”

“Jennifer and Louis are FANTASTIC. They are Dolly's home away from home. I feel 100% at ease with Dolly in Jennifer's 24 hour care. Dolly has stayed with Jennifer before - and just now for 2 weeks and I will fly up from Florida for Dolly to stay with Jennifer and Louis when my family and I travel Internationally in October. Jennifer communicates, send pictures and keeps us informed. We love Jennifer and Dolly is always happy to see her and Louis.”

India was great during my baby girls stay. India kept sending updates along with pics and videos. My baby girl was very happy during her stay and I already have another booking for September with India. She also has a wonderful paw baby named Prince. Upon arriving I met her son/sons very well mannered and they were very welcoming as well. India took really GREAT CARE of my baby and even though I missed her like crazy India made it a lot easier with the great communication and pictures. Thank you India for giving my baby girl such great LOVE and CARE.

This was my first time leaving my fur baby so I was nervous but Alaysia was prompt, professional, and so loving! She sent many pics and videos while we were away and I didn't think my baby would want to come nack home. I know that he was cared for. I will definitely trust her with my Bleu again.

Cristian is honestly the best! Communication was great, and you could just tell he adored my dog like he was his own precious baby boy. Also, he was very flexible with scheduling — before the booking, after, even when my travel plans kept shifting around, he just rolled with it every time. Truly would recommend him to literally anyone, and I would definitely book with him again myself!

Joe is incredible! This was my first time having someone else watch my dog and i couldn’t have asked for a better person to do just that. Joe clearly has a passion for animals and you can tell by how much care he puts into make sure they are comfortable in their new environment. i will absolutely be booking again and i’d highly recommend others do the same!

Rise has been an absolute lifesaver for our family and Oliver. From day one, she understood that Oliver isn't just a pet—he's part of our family—and she treats him with that same love and care. As a nervous pet parent, I can't tell you how much peace of mind it brings to know Oliver is in Rise's hands. She's always responsive, shares the most wonderful photos and updates, and genuinely seems to adore him as much as we do. We've used Rise many times now, and she's never let us down. Oliver comes back from what we call "Camp" absolutely thrilled, tail wagging and full of joy. The happiness he shows when he gets home tells us everything we need to know about how well he's treated. We absolutely depend on Rise and will always make sure Oliver gets to her whenever we need care. Honestly, we don't know what we would do without her. If you're looking for someone who treats your pet like family, Rise is your person. Highly, highly recommended.
Prompt, personable and informative. Jotrice demonstrates great care and experience working with large dogs. She sent picture and videos of the fur babies in her care and my Kali loved being apart of the pack. She thoughtfully ask about my old girl’s pressure spots to make sure she was comfortable. At pick-up Kali couldn’t decided if she wanted to stay or go home! That’s a great sign! I would recommend and would definitely use again should the need arise.

Cindy was great. She is kind and provided great communication during our dog taz’s stay. She sent daily pictures and updates. When picking up Taz he seemed like he was comfortable and did not want to leave. I would highly recommend Cindy. I plan to use her again in the future.

Brieana and her family were absolutely amazing! We had a last minute cancellation with the person who typically watches Vito and she responded immediately and set up a meet greet. We could sense the comfort Vito felt with the family the second he walked in so we already had an overwhelming feeling of calm going into our weekend. When picking him up he was so happy but also super relaxed and it was clear he had a great stay with them. I couldn’t suggest Brieana enough. She will be at the top of our list for Vito I’m pretty sure he’s found a new best friend 😊.
Max is our go-to sitter. He takes such good care of our dog and always sends photo updates throughout the stay. We feel great about the care our pup always gets when we send her to stay with Max and highly recommend his care to anyone on the fence about who to go to with their own pet needs.

Elizabeth was great to work with, sent me daily pictures and updates of Zoe and was flexible when I needed to change the pick up time. She and Kim clearly cared for Zoe and asked for updates on how she was doing after I had picked her up. I will definitely book future stays for Zoe with them!

Joy has been our go to for over a year now. We love that she only takes one family at a time so the experience is more personable. She has a fenced in yard that my dogs love. She is also very prompt at responding at requests and general messages. Thank you Joy! -Deuce and Storm

Serena is fantastic and a great person. When a problem came up between my dog and an off leash dog, she immediately texted/called/video called and kept me updated the whole time. While my dog was happy to see me, she was mad she had to leave Serena because she got all the attention and walks she demands. Highly recommend Serena and any dog will have the time of their life with her

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Hillcrest Heights 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 Hillcrest Heights.
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.
You and your Hillcrest Heights 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.
