“Danielle is great with Diggy. She keeps me updated during his stay and also send pictures. I truly appreciate her in taking care of my fur baby. Thank you, Danielle and you are greatly appreciated!!!”
“Sabrina was wonderful to work with for our first booking! Thank you so much for being flexible with my date change requests — it made everything so easy, and I really appreciated your understanding. I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was in such caring and reliable hands.”
“Crystal is so amazing!!! She is patient, thoughtful and caring. My Junior was well taken care and I felt comfortable with leaving him with Crystal. I’ve already booked my next appointment for Junior and I know there will be many more appointments in the future. Crystal is the best!!!”
“I appreciate all of Denisha’s efforts to try to accommodate my dog’s needs. It did not turn out working out but that’s due to my dog’s own personal special needs and needing more individualized special care. Denisha was very patient and honest during my dog’s care. Some sitters do it for the financial gain but I could really tell that Denisha genuinely cares for the dogs that she sits. She was responsive and provided frequent updates/pictures. I really am thankful that she cared about my dog’s comfort and tried to accommodate her needs. I would definitely recommend Denisha!”
“I love when I can leave my pup with a sitter who has children in the home. I think pups and kids are great for each other. Trynae and her son provided our puppy with the love and attention he needed. My only suggestion for dog owners (who aren’t in a rush like I was) and pet sitters is to see/show where the pet will be in the home. Trynae provided pics which made me feel he was comfortable indoors and outdoors.”
About: The dogs will stay in a loving, family oriented home. Not just with an adult, but a responsible and gentle child who enjoys animals presence.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine passion for animals and my commitment to their well-being. I understand that each dog has unique needs and preferences, and I strive to create a personalized and comfortable experience for every furry friend in my care. With extensive knowledge about dog behavior and handling, I can ensure a safe and engaging environment during walks, playtime, and social interactions. Additionally, I am attentive to any medical or dietary requirements, providing meticulous care and timely administration of medications if needed. My reliable and responsible nature, coupled with excellent communication skills, allows me to maintain open and transparent communication with pet owners, keeping them updated with regular photos and updates. Ultimately, my dedication, expertise, and love for dogs make me a standout choice for dog sitting, ensuring that every pup receives the utmost care, attention, and affection they deserve. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I understand the importance of consistency and reliability when it comes to looking after pets. On a daily basis, I allocate specific time slots for feeding, exercise, and playtime with the dogs under my care. This ensures that they receive regular meals, get ample exercise to maintain their physical and mental well-being, and have plenty of interactive and stimulating activities to keep them engaged. I also prioritize regular walks to provide them with fresh air and opportunities for socialization. Additionally, I integrate grooming and hygiene practices into their routine, such as brushing their coats, trimming nails, and cleaning their ears and teeth as required. I make sure to stay updated on any specific instructions or preferences from pet owners, such as dietary restrictions or medication schedules, and incorporate them into the daily care routine. Overall, pet care is not just a task for me; it's a dedicated commitment that I fulfill diligently and with utmost care and attention. When caring for pets in my home, I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for them. I ensure that the area where they stay is clean, well-maintained, and free from any potential hazards. I provide them with a cozy bed, fresh water, and appropriate toys for playtime and mental stimulation. Regular exercise and walks are incorporated into their daily routine, and I make sure they receive a balanced diet according to their specific dietary needs. If there are any medications or special treatments required, I administer them on time and with proper care. When caring for pets in clients' homes, I prioritize maintaining a familiar and consistent environment for them. I follow the pet owner's instructions and routines closely to minimize any disruptions to the pet's daily life. I ensure that their feeding, exercise, and medication schedules are adhered to strictly. Additionally, I pay attention to their comfort and emotional well-being, providing them with ample attention, affection, and companionship. In both cases, I maintain open and transparent communication with pet owners, providing regular updates and photos to keep them informed and reassured about their pet's well-being. I make it a point to be responsive to any specific requests or concerns they may have, ensuring that their pets receive the highest quality care and attention, whether in my home or theirs.
“We’ve used Marta’s services twice. So far so good! Marta is very nice and my pup seems happy. She took the time to meet with me before his first daycare, which I think helped with a smooth transition.”
“Catie was great with my pup Ruby! Ruby has some extra triggers, and Catie not only was great with making sure Ruby did okay and figuring out what Ruby needed alongside the other dogs in care that day, but also provided frequent updates throughout the day. 5/5!”
“Hi my name is Charlie and it was my first time being away from my family since I was born. I’m almost 2 years old and I am very rambunctious around new people. Thankfully Ms.Danielle was so nice to me and took me on several exciting walks. She even made sure I was dressed fully to go outside although my shoes are tricky to put on sometimes. I am so happy my mom found her and look forward to seeing Ms.Danielle again! Thank you for taking such great care of me!”

“Anthony was awesome and Bruno definitely enjoyed his stay. Anthony was very personable and made my wife and me instantly comfortable. Bruno made a couple of new friends with Anthony's dogs, and I could tell by the excitement and the tail wagging that he was enjoying his time there. As long as Anthony is available, we definitely plan on making this a long term situation.”
“Allison was amazing with our dog Chili Pepper (aka Chili Dog). We were greeted with a very warm and friendly smile and had answered all my questions feeling confident and secure that our dog was left in very capable and loving hands. Our Chili Dog took to Allison immediately with excitement and enjoyed herself tremendously, running on the large property, ball fetching and playing with the other dogs. Chili was so exhausted when she came home, she just chilled the rest of the evening. We would definitely recommend Allison for your pet care and boarding needs and will be using her services again in the very near future.”

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 Lake Arbor 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 5,370 sitters in Lake Arbor, 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.
