“Very impressed with the care Jesus provided for my Kota. He provided videos and updates through out the day. I work very long days, so the updates were very reassuring while I was away. Reliable/trustworthy/attentive. Would recommend! Thank you Jesus!”
About: Hi, I’m Nicole! I am a conscientious, trustworthy professional who loves animals. I understand the dedication and commitment required to look after your pet(s). I know that each pet has their own personality and style and I will be sure to adapt to exactly what your pet needs and wants. I’ve been petting sitting since 2012. During my visits I take great pride in walking, feeding, and providing endless affection to your pet. I also welcome your furry friends into my home. Your dog or cat will feel right at home and are guaranteed to be the main spotlight. In our home we do not have any pets but a toddler who loves animals. We live in an amazing pet friendly community with plenty of room for your pet to get ample exercise.
“Garrett, Ana and their children were wonderful with Piper. They treated Piper like a member of their family. I would definitely recommend and call on them again.”
About: I can accommodate your pets needs. My home is ideally suited for pets–a spacious, fully-fenced backyard for dogs to run around safely, I will maintain a calming presence with your dog. Walking/ running, fetch the ball are some outdoor activities to strengthen the bond with your dog. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have a dog and have kept dogs for others. I take our dog out for walks and play-time with other dogs in the neighborhood . Diesel is very friendly, energetic and loving. My house has a large fenced yard. It’s not my practice to crate dogs. However, I can crate your dog if requested. I provide dog beds and allow dogs to move about freely. No one else will be assisting me with caring for your dog.
“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!”
“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.”
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.
“Jen is kind and caring about the dogs she sits. Her older dog and Bella do well together. So does the other dog who is also older than Bella. And she has enough indoor space and outdoors on deck and grass for the dogs to have variety in their surroundings. She also walks them 2 or 3 times a day, another plus. And her doggie healthy biscuits that she bakes has Bella begging for more!!”
About: I've been around animals my entire life and have cared for both dogs and cats of all ages, from playful puppies/kittens to senior pets. I'm comfortable with different personalities and care needs. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets while they're away because they know I'll treat them like my own. I'm patient, dependable, and happy to stick to each pet's normal routine. Whether your pet loves to play or just wants extra cuddles, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm currently looking for a full-time position, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to focus on the pets in my care. I'm available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I enjoy spending time with animals, so making sure they're happy and comfortable is something I genuinely look forward to. I can easily adapt to your pet's routine and provide consistent care. My goal is to make them feel as relaxed as possible while you're away. I know every pet is different, so I always take the time to learn their routine, personality, and any special instructions before I begin caring for them. Whether I'm in your home or caring for them in mine, I make sure they have a safe, clean, and calm environment. I'll follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, walking routines, and any house rules you have. I also believe in keeping pet parents updated with regular messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care.
“My dog had an amazing time and I am so appreciative that he was able to accommodate my last minute booking. Absolutely loved the photos and videos, and the fast communication. Will definitely book again!”
“Michelle took a last minute request to watch our dog, and was sending us updates throughout the entire day. She and her entire family are so wonderful and respectful. Everyone was so kind and polite when we came by to pick up our boy. Thank you so much!!”
“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”
“This was the first time in 12 years I have used a dog sitter, and it will not be the last time because of Rebeca and Roman. They were very responsive from the beginning of the Rover process, and they continued throughout the four days I used their services. Rebeca greeted us every morning and afternoon with a smile. After the first day, Maple could not wait to get to Rebeca, literally jumping from my arms to her arms when we arrived at Rebeca/Roman’s home. I received a daily picture and even a video of Maple during the day. I had no concerns during the four days of daycare because of the pleasant attitude, daily photos, and Maple’s behavior before and after her time with Rebeca and Roman. Overall, a great experience. I will 100% use Rebeca and Roman again!!!”
“Apollo loves coming here and being able to play with other dogs. After a not so great experience with a different Rover sitter, Alex and Eddie have put my mind at ease for our 10 month old German Shepard puppy who needs to be running around at all times.”
“I would not trust anyone else with my pup after meeting Katherine. He’s always excited to go to her home and see his pal Kobe. He used to hate going in the car but he’s ready in the morning especially because he knows that he’s going to see one of his favorite people. Katherine is the best!”
“Mila was outstanding! My dog was recently brought home from a shelter and Mila was not only kind and understanding but my dog didn't even want to leave her when it was time to come home. She took plenty of pics so I knew the dog was okay and her timeliness is out of this world!!! She did pickups and drop offs on time and had great communication the whole time. We will definitely book her again!”

The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Indian Head on Rover is $21.4 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 4,575 sitters in Indian Head, 87% 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.
