“Candi was awesome! She was so patient and understanding with my pups extreme separation anxiety and did really well communicating with me while I was gone. She responded fast and while I needed her last minute, she was able to adjust to fit me in. So thank you Candi! Maya very much appreciates and loves her new toy! Will definitely use her again as well as recommend her to anyone that needs a sitter.”
“Steffi is super sweet and treated my dog Honey with the love and respect any dog mom would want for their fur baby! Steffi would send me photos and videos to update me on Honey’s status, which was very reassuring. Despite having separation anxiety, Honey seemed to really enjoy her stay with Steffi! I’d highly recommend Steffi to anyone.”
“I was able to drop off my dog at their home. I received lots of pictures of him enjoying his day. He fell asleep when he got home so I know he got lots of exercise and attention.”
About: I have taken care of a variety of animals my entire life growing up on a farm. I have been a Licensed Veterinary Technician for 24 years. I work part-time remotely and part-time in a vet clinic. I am looking to supplement my income while still working my current part-time jobs. I work Monday through Wednesday remotely. Then I'm working Thursday and Friday in a Veterinary Hospital. I'm mostly available Friday night through early Thursday morning. I have 4 dogs, 2 outdoor cats, 2 horses, and 15 chickens. I can easily separate dogs as needed with a secure large backyard. Our entire property is 5 acres completely fenced and cross fenced. My husband can easily take care of our animals if I'm away from the house.
About: I have had dogs and cats nearly all of my 36 years. I have experience with walking and caring for dogs from 5 lbs to 150 lbs. I currently have a beautiful male pit bull boxer mix that loves other dogs as well. My children, ages 4 years and 9 years both love animals and would love to play with your pets! I have a very flexible schedule and enjoy going for walks. As a stay at home mother I am glad to earn some income while easing the stresses of having to be away from your pets while working or travelling. Please contact me with any questions you may have so I can start helping you and your pets today! As a stay at home mom I am quite flexible. Other than drop off and pick up times for school I am open and free. I am always cautious with new animals and slow to introduce my pets to yours if it becomes necessary. Taking cues from the animals and soft confident speech are the way to go.
“My pup is very fearful of new situations but seemed to do fine with Darby. We're going to go back this week and hopefully my pup will get more comfortable. Darby seems knowledgeable about fearful dogs and giving them time to relax. Fingers crossed that my girl will relax and enjoy herself!”
“Marlena was great with Rainy while I was gone for the day. Rainy's need and comfort were a priority for her. She also sent me several texts with photos for mt peace of mind. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Michael was very pleasant to work with for dog sitting! I also appreciated that he accepted the booking the day before my early appointment, and that he sent picture updates throughout the day.”
“Jeremy is super flexible and made the Rover experience an easy one. Ozzy was happy and a tired boy when he got home. 5 stars! Got picture updates during his time as well which was nice.”
“Sonia was great with my puppy Jack! She sent me updates and pictures of him, which made me feel very comfortable, knowing that he was enjoying his time while I was away. Thank you, we will be returning in the future ?”
“Awesome dog sitter. My dog has anxiety issues when left alone and he did wonderful with her! Her dog Rue helped out with the transition time and Buddy had a great time! Will be reserving her in the future.”
“Kristin and her little daughter took such great care of Teddy ☺️He clearly felt comfortable and had a lovely time. Communication was easy and friendly — we’d definitely trust them again!”
“Kristina always takes amazing care of Harley! When we’re going out of town or need day care services, Kristina is the first person we message. We are so thankful we found her for Harley!!”
About: Had dogs my entire life. Lost my last one a few months ago. Have fenced in yard for them to run. And plenty of toys. I’m retired so I have nothing but time to watch your pet. I walk every day would love to have your dog along for the walk. I have a fenced in yard , and a.good sized back yard with squirrels that need to be chased. Your pet will be welcome in our home.
“This was my first time my one year-old Australian terrier was using daycare or being boarded. Both he and I love Allison and her lab. The dogs got along very well because her pup is so sweet. He was very tolerant of a speedy short dog zooming around him. Allie made me feel extremely comfortable with leaving him.”
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. From high energy terriers and pointers to relaxed Labradors. I currently am the proud owner of two Cocker Spaniels, Moon and Minnow. If you're dog doesn't like the company of other dogs, I am happy to take them on a private nature walk or stay in the safety of our fenced yard. We are a work from couple, with atleast one of us at the house at all times. My partner and I work remotely full time. We enjoy taking our dog Moon on a morning, lunch, and evening walk or run each day. We enjoy a spacious home with a fenced in yard. The ground floor provides lots of indoor space and hardwood floors that are easy to clean up from mud to accidents. If you're pet is accustomed to being on furniture, don't worry that is fine with us too!
About: We're two proud dog moms based in Baltimore City with a deep love for pups of all kinds! We've spent years walking, boarding, and caring for dogs in our neighborhood, often hosting overnight stays so our sweet 4-year-old girl Poppy can have a playmate. Poppy loves meeting new friends and would be thrilled to welcome your dog into our home—though she insists on a quick meet-and-greet first (just to make sure it’s love at first sniff). We’ve also cared for dogs long-term, including a full month with an energetic one-year-old, so we’re ready for anything. While we’re new to Rover, we’ve got plenty of off-the-record experience and can’t wait to officially join the community! Pet care fits naturally into our daily lives—one of us works from home full-time, so there's usually someone around for walks, cuddles, and attention throughout the day. The other works evenings and most weekends but is free during weekday mornings, which means we're flexible for pickups, drop-offs, and mid-morning strolls. We're also home most weekends, including holiday weekends. Between the two of us, your dog will get lots of love, attention, and care around the clock. When we board dogs in our home, we focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. We typically feed visiting pups separately just to avoid any tummy troubles or food-related tension. We're happy to follow your preferences when it comes to sleeping arrangements; Poppy usually snoozes in bed with us or on the couch downstairs, so we’re flexible depending on what makes your dog feel at home. We’re generally homebodies who love cozy evenings with our dog, but Poppy is also an adventurer—she is a regular at Patterson Park, Checkerspot Brewery, Ovenbird Bakery, and occasionally Downs Dog Beach or nearby hikes. If your pup enjoys outings, we'd love to bring them along—but if they prefer a more relaxed pace, we’re just as happy snuggling up on the couch.

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 McKenna 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 WA 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 867 sitters in McKenna, 89% 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.
