“This our first puppy and our first time being away from our sweet girl. Jesus kept us updated throughout her entire stay with messages, videos and pictures. We could tell that our little one felt so comfortable, happy and most of all well cared for.”
“This was my first time using this app and Candice made it a great experience. She is awesome and took really good care of my 4 months old puppy, she sent me morning and evening updates and was pretty responsive. She made me feel so comfortable as she answered all of my questions and concerns in a timely manner, but most importantly she made my puppy feel like he was part of her family as he was sad to depart her home and said bye to his new friends. If you want someone who is truly trustworthy she is your person, thank you Candice, I will definitely take Maximus back.”
“Seyla provides excellent care for our dog, Bleu! Bleu is given opportunities for exercise, socialization with other dogs, and experiences many adventures involving hiking and running. Seyla is an excellent doggy daycare provider!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I enjoy taking care of animals, spending time with them. I’m willing to work with your puppies or senior dogs providing good care. I have a lot of free time right now and would love to spend it helping take care of other dogs whether that’s walking them, playing with them or simply giving them attention. And making sure they are well cared for! I have a fenced and spacious yard. My home is dog-friendly, clean and safe. I’ll keep you updated on your fur baby with photos, videos and messages.
“Vanessa and Geoffrey were so kind and professional with the initial meet and greet for doggy daycare. They sent lots of updates and pictures to put my mind at ease. This was our first in-home dog care experience, and we will definitely be back!”
“Alexander was FANTASTIC! He waited outside to pick us up so I could get to work on time. He was very respectful and Cocoa had a blast! He kept us informed the whome day with what was going on with her and posted pics so we could check in on her which gives us peace of mind. We need him permanently!!”
About: My husband and I are blessed to have a totally fenced in home with over three acres. I decided to use this blessing to bless dogs to come and run and play. Dogs were meant to run and roam not be tied up. I so enjoy being outdoors and being around dogs. I have always had dogs even growing up with my family. My father had a heart for animals and I believe that is where my love has come from. I have three dogs of my own and each one has a very special spirit about them. In my spare time, I enjoy going to the rescues and shelters walking the dogs there. I also take rescue puppies into our home and foster them until they are adopted into a loving family. My husband and I work together and we have plenty of time to give special attention to your fur baby. We believe in exercising your pet whether by means of walking, playing with their favorite toy, sitting on the porch just hanging out and also then giving the proper rest as needed. My yard is fenced in for protected play time. While inside your pet will be allowed to be a part of household for special time and then I have a separate area where your pet will be allowed to have quite time and rest in a crate or in a area without a crate as needed.
“My dog and I just moved to a new area so I was anxious about finding someone to watch him while we get settled. Jennifer and Justin were so kind and sent me plenty of photos throughout the day. They even very kindly washed his bowl after he ate his food. My dog had an amazing time and I would trust them to watch him again”
“Thank you so much for looking after my Chewy! He came back very happy and Well taken care off! I got 2 pictures of how he was doing and was told how he was when I came to pick him up. Would definitely rebook again whenever I get the chance!”
“Azaria was amazing! She was very responsive, and just had an infectious personality. She was very kind and we knew in an instant that Kole would be in good hands. She sent lots of pictures and Kole seemed very relaxed and happy when we picked him up. We will definitely use Azaria again!”

“Our long-time star Rover host had to go back to work in the office. I am lucky to have found Veronica who lives five minutes away from my job site. She is reliable and promptly responds to my inquiry and booking. My dog, Mr. Blinky, a three-year-old miniature poodle, is usually cautious around new people and dog. She warm welcomed him into her house and he made fast friends with her dog, Zachariah. Blinky goes for a walk and plays with Zachariah who is the same size as him. He enjoys his stay there a lot and now becomes her weekly regular.”

I also have a very flexible schedule so I can easily adjust my schedule to match that of your preference for your furry family member(s).
“Asia has been amazing. She is very flexible with her doggy daycare scheduling, and is awesome with animals. Carmelo, my dog, loves going there, he loves playing with her dogs and the other dogs. He loves running and playing in her large backyard, a plus for us, since we reside in a condo. Carmelo has been going for two months, I feel at ease when he's there. Asia sends me pictures and responds to me in a timely manner. I highly recommend her doggy daycare.”
About: Hi! I’m Gaby, a lifelong dog lover with a background in Animal Science and hands-on experience working with animals. In addition to being a dog owner myself, I’ve volunteered at a local animal shelter, where I’ve cared for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. These experiences have taught me how to be patient, attentive, and compassionate while ensuring every dog feels safe and comfortable. I understand that every dog is unique, so I take the time to learn their routine, walking style, and preferences. Whether your pup enjoys an energetic adventure, a relaxing stroll, or plenty of time to sniff and explore, I’ll make sure they have a fun and enriching experience. As a pet parent, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I’ll treat your furry family member as if they were my own and keep you updated with photos and messages after every walk so you can have complete peace of mind. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely passionate about animal care. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I am currently working full time. My work environment is hybrid, so I’m mostly working from home. My schedule is flexible and I’m available for weekday walks, with availability during late mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. I’m happy to work with your dog’s routine and find a schedule that works best for both of us. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always take the time to understand their routine, personality, comfort level, and any specific instructions from their family. During walks, I focus on keeping your dog safe by using proper leash handling, being aware of our surroundings, and following any preferences you have regarding routes, pace, and interactions with other dogs or people. When entering your home, I will always be respectful of your space and follow your instructions carefully. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and your home is a big responsibility, and I will provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care every time.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Indian Head commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 4,541 sitters in Indian Head, 86% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
