“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.”
“Russ was easy to communicate with before my dog's stay and provided frequent updates with photos during it. He and his family are very kind people and they took wonderful care of her. Would absolutely recommend him and use his services again.”
“Tamara was fantastic! Hands down the best sitter I’ve had. I boarded my little guy with her for about 4 days. She sent me pictures and videos and kept me updated throughout on how he was doing. It really put me at ease and let me know he was in great hands. I would 100%recommend.”
“Mary watched my two dogs a total of four times for three days at a time, and I waited till the last visit to write a review. Mary is absolutely awesome. My youngest can be a handful at times, but Mary is extremely patient, caring, and truly just loves dogs. I received a message from Mary on the second visit that my dog threw up and was not feeling good. She asks me if she can boil chicken breast and rice for him to have something easier on the stomach. This just made me feel good about leaving them in her care and that she had his best interest. She truly wants the best for them. She is the first person my dog has ever ran up to invitingly and was not timid of. I will definitely be going back to Mary if I’m in need of a good dog sitter.”
“This was the first time leaving my dog with a dog sitter and after meeting Donna I felt completely at ease! She is a dog lover and it shows! She took great care of Abby and I will definitely use her again!”
“Melonie took such great care of our big dog! She asked many questions before our first boarding that I knew she would have a full handle on how to care for our dog.”
“My dog truly enjoys staying with Ann and Richard! It is very apparent that they (& their dogs) enjoy her equally. I find it to be very reassuring when away that Dandelion is being not just cared for, but loved and enjoyed!! Thank you both!”
“When I go away for travel, I always know that I am leaving my dog Bruno in great hands. This last visit was my longest stay with Luis and Stephanie, a total of 12 days. They offered a very comfortable environment for Bruno that minimized stress and anxiety for the long stay. They always communicate well with pictures and regular updates. Upon return, Bruno always comes back more relaxed and content which was the same for this visit. I would highly recommend their services to other pet owners. Thanks again for always caring for Bruno with such love and care 🫶🏾.”
“Ana was very sweet. It was my dog's first time with her and she had a great time. Ana let Godiva take her time to warm up to her and feel comfortable, she took her on walks, and also let her play with her pup. Ana was very communicatove and sent me photos, My dog enjoyed her stay! I will definitely be using Ana again.”
“Karen was absolutely amazing with caring for my puppy! She was ever so kind to keep her an extra day when I encountered flight issues getting back home. Dior was as well taken care of and she truly enjoyed her time. Cannot wait to book her again!”
“Rosalina was very attentive; she communicated thoroughly with me about my fur baby (Percy). Percy enjoyed himself, the amount of happy pictures concurred this, and I were at ease the whole time he was with Rosalina and her watchful care. Hoping to book again in the future.”
“Amanda and her family took excellent care of Poppy, and provided daily pictures and updates. Poppy got along super well with their dog and they became fast friends! I recommend Amanda's services and will definitely ask her to watch Poppy again.”
“Francise was wonderful with our girl, Winnie! She took wonderful care and provided great updates and photos. Winnie can be a little difficult on walks sometimes because she is a bit dog reactive and Francise did a great job managing her! We can’t say enough nice things and we highly recommend Francise and look forward to having Winnie stay with Francise again!”
“Starr always takes such great care of our dog, Biscotti that he literally runs up to the door when we do the drop off. She truly treats him like family. We are grateful to have her!”

“Andrea and TJ were absolutely wonderful with Domino! They took great care of him for the whole weekend, and I could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. They were kind, attentive, and made the whole experience so easy and stress-free for me. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for someone to care for their dog, and I would absolutely leave Domino with them again! 🐶❤️”
“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!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - La Plata
I needed someone to watch my 2 dogs last minute and Schuyler was quick to respond. She kept me up to date with pictures and messages letting me know how they were doing throughout my trip. She was also flexible with pick up and drop off time. Would definitely use her again! It was nice knowing my dogs were well cared for while I was away.
Winnie was treated like the cat of the week, and quite possibly the cat of the year. While we were away, Winnie experienced the kind of cat care that can only be described as cat-tastic. When she returned home from the Cat Carlton, she looked wonderfully chill, pampered, and now expects cat service on demand. Winnie was not merely looked after, she was adored, spoiled, and coddled in every way. We suspect she may have been a bit cat-atonic from all the comfort and attention, but in the best possible way - no cat-astrophes at all! If you want your cat to be treated like the absolute royalty they are, this is the cat sitter for you.

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.

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.
