“I’m always nervous to leave my dog with someone new but they were great to work with, communicative and always answered any questions I had about how Abbey was doing. They have a lovely home with a sunroom and amazing backyard perfect for curious doggos wanting to stare at birds and chipmunks all day. Thank you for looking over my fur baby!”
“Hazel always has a great stay with Jonathan and Jen! We can’t thank them enough for putting up with her puppy energy while we’re away. Heck, she usually sleeps for a day or two after stay she has so much fun.”
“Darby is so kind and caring. Anyone can see how much she loves dogs. She is also so understanding and flexible when plans change. She is the best and I would never hesitate to leave my little guy with her!”
“Fantastic time was had by all! Brianna is a warm soul who knows dogs, detailed, and observant! I looked forward to her message updates and pictures of the pups while i was away on a trip.”
“Renee always so loving to our dog Lily. She offers plenty of opportunities for play and cuddles. I recieve frequent updates and Lily always seemed to be right at home! Love that she has experience with pet sitting and it very aware of each individual dog in her care! :)”
“Chris & Gerry are simply THE BEST! I couldn’t say enough great things about them. So many beautiful updates every day while on vacation with heartwarming messages and adorable pics of our little Lexi. I was completely relaxed my entire vacation knowing Lexi was in such great hands! Can’t thank you enough!”
“Kacy and Justin were amazing with our fur baby! We were a bit anxious about leaving our puppy for the first time (especially for a full week), but Kacy and Justin helped ease our anxiety. They are very kind and provided daily updates with videos and photos. And they were very flexible when our flight was delayed and we were a bit late for pick-up. We would definitely recommend them and will be using them for any future dog boarding services!”
“James and Mary are my lifesavers. They are always so flexible and understanding and take the best care of my dog. Once again they have taken the dogsitter stress out of the equation making my trip even more enjoyable. Cant say enough wonderful things❤️”
“We left our 10 year old dog Luna with Priscilla for 3 weeks as we were traveling abroad. We got regular pictures sent to us. Luna seemed to have enjoyed her stay. Would definitely recommend and rebook whenever we need a pet sitter.”
“Kemberlei did such a great job with our dog Luna. Luna only weighs 5 pounds, but she makes up for it with her attitude!! She demands a lot of attention. Kemberlei kept us up to date with daily photos from the dog park and all the fun things that Luna got to do with Kemberlei and her family! So thankful to find her! Giant thank you to Kemberlei and can’t wait to go out of town again!”
“Rachel and Jason were wonderful and accommodating hosts for our Aussie. I appreciate that they took the time for a meet-and-greet up front to make sure our dog would get along with theirs, and they were patient with her when she arrived very excited and barky. Also got to see another dog that they were hosting, and Rachel was super sweet with him. I'd go as far to say she's a dog whisperer! We received regular updates and photos to put our minds at ease. Would definitely leave our pup with them again.”
“Dorian took care of our senior dog with special needs during our travel out of state. I am really thankful to Dorian for his attention and care of Nina and for going above and beyond to make her comfortable and well cared for.”
“This is our second time with Lora. My pup loves visiting her home. You can tell how passionate she is about dogs and being a great sitter. She sent updates throughout my pups stay and makes him feel right at home. It’s almost like his second home. She has all the toys, a huge back yard and provides lots of love. If you are in need of a sitter I highly recommend Lora. Not only is she great but her family is as well. Her home is very clean and pet friendly. You will definitely be leaving your pup in good hands with Lora. I can travel with a peace of mind when my pup is with her.”
“I’m so glad I left Apollo with Rebecca and her family while my husband and I were out of town. She took care of Apollo and made sure he was fed, active and happy. He wasn’t eating his own food and wanted the other pup’s food, and Rebecca was absolutely open on feeding Apollo her own pup’s food just so that he could eat. Apollo was getting spoiled the whole weekend. I can’t wait to use Rebecca and her family again to sit Apollo again. Thank you again for everything!”
“Auana was excellent! My puppy was in great hands, she is super responsive and gave me updates throughout my dog’s stay with her. Her willingness to follow my dog’s care plan was extra comforting. Will be booking her again!”
“Sneha was amazing while taking care of my dog! Sent multiple updates along with pics and videos. It was my dogs first time boarding and Sneha made me feel Very comfortable! My dog can’t wait to go back ◡̈”
“Our Hendrix was well loved during his stay with this family. I received updates and pictures along with a video of him playing with the children. Tail wagging and quite talkative during my pickup I knew he was left in good hands big and small. I wouldn't hesitate to use them in the future.”
“Very nice, great rate, beautiful lovong space and dog park on theroof of their apartment. Sent lots of pics. Said my dog was great,even though j know sometimes.he can be a pain... book her!!!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Linwood home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Linwood.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Linwood sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
