About: I have 25+ years of experience taking care of dogs from puppies to senior dogs. I know firsthand that dogs are part of our family. While your dogs are with us, we welcome them as part of our family and treat them with the same love and care as our own. I maintain a calm, clean and safe environment. Whether relaxing indoors, or playing in our safe, fenced backyard, your dogs will always be carefully supervised. I also send regular photo updates throughout the day so you can see how your dog is doing and have peace of mind. I work from home full-time, so your pup will have plenty of companionship throughout the day. My schedule is pretty flexible to allow for regular potty breaks, playtime and meal schedules. I provide calm, clean, and cozy environment, with a fully fenced yard where your pup can safely enjoy some fresh air and playtime. I also send regular photos and updates throughout their stay.

“Truffle had an amazing time with Sweta. Sweta did a great job of communicating with me throughout the stay. She provided descriptions about how my pup was doing, sent pictures and even took videos. She provided a list of things that she encouraged me to pack for him and she followed the information I shared about what Truffle likes. We look forward to working with Sweta again!”

“Suzi was so great with our 16 year old, senior pup. We were nervous at first since we don’t often have others watch Roxy. Suzi was very patient with her and gave us regular updates and pictures, which we really enjoyed and appreciated. She even went out of her way to purchase additional wet food for Roxy (we sent her with wet and dry). We know Roxy enjoyed herself. Would highly recommend!”

Mr. Romero was wonderful. We were in a pinch and nervous about getting a quality dog sitter on short notice, but thankfully Mr. Romero was available. Throughout our dog Dexter’s stay, Jesus was very responsive to my messages, sending photos and videos. He was clear with procedures for drop off and pick up. Dexter was happy to be in the Romero house while we were out of town. We highly recommend!

We love Mickey! He’s trained my dog continually and kept my dog during the weekend to get him more used to other dogs and everything has gone well! We will continue training for life! Mickey is laid back and explains everything sufficiently for my family to use tactics for our dog.

Jesus always takes incredible care of our golden retriever, Teddy. We originally worked with Jesus to train Teddy as a puppy, and now he’s the only person we trust to board him when we’re out of town. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing Teddy is with someone who truly cares about him. Jesus sends us plenty of photos and videos throughout each stay, so we always know Teddy is having the best time. The biggest sign of all is how excited Teddy gets when we drop him off. He is always so thrilled to see Jesus. I highly recommend Jesus for boarding or training needs.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
