“Kayla and Adam were wonderful hosts for our little Bonnie! This was Bonnie’s first time staying anywhere without us, but Kayla and Adam obviously love dogs and were simply great with her. Kayla sent reports with pictures several times a day, putting our minds at ease. And the fact that our dog, a very nervous and picky eater, was relaxed enough to eat on her first day told us very clearly that she was doing fine and felt at home with Kayla and her family. Thank you Kayla and Adam - we’ll be back!!”
“Stephanie and Luis took excellent care of our pup while we were away, and we will definitely be reaching out again in the future! We would highly recommend them to anyone.”
“Jennifer and Louis were very friendly and accommodating for me and my pup first overnight stay I was very nervous in the beginning due to it being my dog first overnight stay. I a new to the app and was looking for a playful friendly dog that my dog can stay and play with occasionally. We have found one thank you Jennifer and Louis for your hospitality pictures and videos everything went great!”
“Janel kept us updated on what our dog was doing during her stay. We loved seeing pictures of her adventures! She seemed happy as a clam when we picked her up.”
“This was my first time boarding and being away from my pup for an extended period, so I was a bit nervous at first. Nicole helped put my mind at ease, and I came back to a happy, well cared for pup. Very grateful!”
“Diego was great taking care of our 2 fur babies. He followed their care plan as we provided. Communication was good and fast response. We received multiple pictures and videos of our babies daily. The environment was clean and the pups adjusted to their environment swiftly. We plan to trust Diego to care for them again this summer. It was a great experience.”
“Our pup had an amazing time at Lauren’s! Lauren kept our active 1 year old dog plenty busy with walks, trips to the dog park and play with her own sweet doggy. She kept us updated w messages, videos and pictures throughout his stay.”
“Vania was super friendly! And, she sent photos of our cat to assure she was settling in! She also cleaned the litter box! Would definitely recommend her for pet sitting!!”
“Serena was so easy to book and she responded to all texts very promptly. She and Jake took very good care of our Ellie. We would definitely ask them to puppy-sit again!”
“Kelly, Maurice and their family are wonderful. They’ve taken care of my dog, Hudson, several times and have become my go-to sitters. They take great care of him, send lots of pictures and videos and Hudson is always excited to see them when I drop him off. They’re very responsive and have been flexible when I needed in a pinch. They care for Hudson like he’s part of their family and I can relax knowing he’s in great hands with them!”
“I'm so thankful to Catherine and Nikhit. Old dogs can need a lot of special care and attention and they are so good with my old lady, and I was able to actually enjoy my vacation without worrying about if Stella was being too much. Stella seems to love going on vacation to their house as well!”
“Anna is amazing!! She was so good with our pretty anxious pup and sent us a lot of pictures throughout the weekend — we were always at ease knowing that Ellie was comfortable and having a great time. Anna’s two dogs are also so sweet, and we loved that Ellie had companions all weekend. If you live in DC, definitely worth driving out to Anna’s place for your pup to escape the city for a bit and hang out with this wonderful sitter!!”
“Fitz had a wonderful time with Melonie. We found a 2nd home for him and i will truly have a more enjoyable trip knowing Fitz is staying with a wonderful family.”
“Sabrina cared so much for my boy Ace that he didn't want to come home! From consistent updates to an engaging itinerary and even managing his medical schedule, Sabrina did not disappoint. She openly communicated throughout his stay and managed his visit with much care. Ace will be hanging with her again soon.”
“David and Armando were amazing with our dog Milo! He had so much fun running around their huge backyard and was calm and happy when we picked him up. We will definitely bring him for another visit!”
“This is the 1st time I used Rover and I get so nervous leaving Bruce with people while I am out of town. From the very beginning Yolande was so kind and did very well with Bruce. She was amazing at communicating and letting us know Bruce was very well taken care of. I am so thankful for her and 100% recommend her!”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Marlow Heights
This sitter has restored our hope in leaving our little guy with someone who truly cares for and spoils him. She’s very responsive and sends updates frequently. Drop off and pick up is smooth and we have no complaints. She even taught him how to go up and down stairs and a few manners. We have rebooked several times and plan to continue.
Serena and Jake were amazing! It was our first time leaving our dogs with someone at their house. We usually have a sitter come to ours so we were a little bit nervous. Our dogs are not friendly with other dogs and have their little quirks, but they did a great job working around that. Our dogs came back to us, looking very happy and warmed up quickly to both of them. Will definitely be rebooking in the future.
Melissa is amazing and so sweet. I wish I would’ve found her much earlier since I recently moved here. She took my last minute boarding and I’m beyond thankful. I was definitely less worried than the last time I boarded him on base. I can very much tell my little guy enjoyed his time with her, their adventures, and even his new friends. Highly, HIGHLY recommend 💛
Patience was truly amazing with Poncho. She gives a lot of love and care to your pet and will treat them just like they are at home. She is also a very kind person. You can tell she is passionate about animals. She gave lots of updates, walked and played with Poncho all day, and was even kind enough to extend my time by an hour when I was running late. I will absolutely book again and I recommend her!
Jade is very warm and inviting. We agreed on a 2 hr. meet and greet visit for our pet to be with her, given her separation anxiety and not being with her regular sitter. Jade reported our pet whining for the first hour being with her. When I asked Jade if she would be open to a future visit in hopes of my pet becoming lass anxious. She was immediate in saying yes.
Melissa was simply an exceptional Dog Sitter! She took care of our three big dogs in such a sweet personal way as if they were her own children! Ours are big dogs and they are super good natured, but they can be a handful and Melissa did not skip a beat with them and offered up her whole house as their own. They loved her and she even took care of one of them who ended up needing special attention because of a hotspot he had developed. Melissa was on it, caring for him and making sure it did not get worse before we arrived. We absolutely give her the highest recommendation possible! Thank you, Melissa!
Javien was fantastic with both of my pups!!! He communicated daily, made adjustments when I forgot to drop off one of my pups anxiety Rx and kept my pups happy. First, he took my last minute request like 24 hours before my last minute family trip. Then, he was just awesome the entire time. I couldn't ask for anything more than that to be honest. He kept my babies safe, smiling & even when he took another pup in he did a gradual introduction to each other and made sure he kept my 1 pup with slight food aggression away for the others while eating. I will use him again!
We had a wonderful experience with Rasida! She was reliable, responsible, and incredibly caring throughout the entire time she watched our dog. She was very communicative, flexible, and willing to accommodate our needs, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dog and treated her with the same love and attention she would give her own. We truly appreciated how dependable and easy to work with Rasida was. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy,and caring dog sitter. We’d happily have her watch our dog again!
We had such a great experience! She took amazing care of Mischa and kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout her stay. She was so attentive to Mischa’s allergies and itching and made sure she was always comfortable and happy. You could tell she genuinely loved having her, and Mischa clearly felt right at home! We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands and would absolutely book with her again! ❤️

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 Marlow Heights home-away-from-home, 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 Marlow Heights.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Marlow Heights 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 , 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 .
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.
