“Daniel did a wonderful job with Apollo. He was taken on many walks and allowed to take over the couch. Daniel is caring and responsible with a true affection for doggos. I'd definitely trust him with Apollo again.”
“Hands down, best sitter!! I was skeptical using this service to book reservations for our furbaby; however, as soon as I arrived at Susan’s house, I knew our baby would be in good hands. I received several pictures and messages a day, which made our trip more enjoyable knowing he was getting such good care. He made new friends with Susan’s two furbabies and he was spoiled the whole time! We will be using Susan again anytime we can’t take our pup with us.”
“Lamar and his family are absolutely amazing! We found out at the last minute that our Airbnb didn’t allow pets, and I was devastated trying to find someone I could trust to care for my little guy. From the moment we met Lamar, he made us feel so welcome and immediately put my mind at ease. Throughout Gus’s stay, he sent us photos and updates, which meant so much and reassured us that he was happy, safe, and well cared for. It’s clear that Lamar is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and genuinely loves animals. I am so grateful we found him, especially on such short notice. I highly recommend Lamar to anyone looking for exceptional pet-sitting services. We will absolutely choose him again whenever we’re back in Ocean City. I only wish he lived closer to us!”
“This is the second year that we've used Karen and her family to watch our dog Macy during our annual family vacation. We know that Macy is well taken care of and loved and that we don't have to worry about her while we're away! Macy loves people so she gets lots of TLC from Karen and Ron.”
“Dawn is a good communicator, keeping us in touch with our Rocky’s well being and sending pictures to let us know he was enjoying His vacation too. We were very happy with Dawn’s care of our dog. Thank you.”
“Dear Denise. S. Thank you so much for taking care of our cutie Bagheera. This was my first time leaving our puppy and I was nervous to leave him in a strange home. Denise treated Bagheera like her own puppy. I am extremely thankful to Denise and actually whole family. Bagheera had such a good time. The best part was sending updates in the form of pics and messages. I truly appreciate her professionalism with a personal touch. Now Bagheera has a second home and he will be staying with Denise and family whenever needed. I highly recommend Denise for anyone's dogs sitting. Denise you are awesome. Thanks again.”
“Bullet loves staying with brenda. She has a beautiful big backyard for him to run around in and he loves the company she is able to provide while watching him. I wouldn't even consider anyone else if brenda is available!”
“Beth and Ron took Alice in on very short notice and took very good care of her while we had to work. Alice liked playing with Riley and we enjoyed the pictures of them while we were away!”
“Anmei was amazing with Lucas! She sent lots of pictures and videos, and he looked so happy the whole time. This was our first time being separated, and Anmei made it so easy and comforting. We’ll definitely be using her from now on. We highly recommend!!”

About: Hi, I’m Jordan a lifelong dog owner with professional kennel experience and a Biology degree. I bring both heart and expertise to every pup in my care. My home sits on 6 gorgeous acres of waterfront property in Princess Anne, Maryland, giving dogs plenty of space to roam and explore. I work from home, so your dog will be well watched and cared for while you’re away. Requirements Since my property is unfenced, I ask that all guests be: • House trained • Crate trained • Recall trained or e-collar trained • Up to date on flea & tick prevention Your dog won’t just be watched they’ll be on their own little vacation. 🐾 I work from home full time, I am extremely flexible and live on 6 acres of land that includes waterfront for your dog to join my dog dude in swimming and playing fetch in the yard. 6 acres are not fenced but I can walk on leash, tether to a lead or allow off leash if they have good recall/remote training. Please provide crates for indoors.
About: I provide reliable, attentive care that’s tailored to each pet’s needs and personality. I have a 15 year old Yorkie mix and a 1 year old Yorkie. My experience includes caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, so I understand everything from basic training and routines to giving extra patience and comfort to older animals. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, and keeping pets active, safe, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure owners feel at ease with regular updates and check-ins. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets aren’t left alone for long. I’m flexible during the week and weekends, which allows me to stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule and give them the time, supervision, and care they need. I create a safe, calm environment by following each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and always supervise pets. In your home, I respect your space while keeping your pet in their normal routine. I also provide updates and can handle special needs like medications.
“Amanda is absolutely amazing! Upon meeting her I could tell she really cares for animals. Our dog Ember was very comfortable and happy during her stay and will be back when we visit again!”
“McCray was great, will definitely use him in the future to care for my girl. She’s very sensitive, she does not like being away from her home. Well, we arrive at McCrays home for the 1st time ever, Rita jumps out the car and runs to the door, like she knows where she’s going! And when we returned after our trip to collect her, so excited to see our girl, she stared out the back window of the car as we drove away and she’s been moping around the house ever since we got home! Thanks McCray!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 39 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Horntown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
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 Horntown 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 Horntown.
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 Horntown 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 VA 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.
