We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in her care. We will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
“Ian was great and watched my two dogs for several nights. He is very communicative and even shared pictures during their visit. This was a first time boarding both pups, but they seemed to have a great time with Ian and his family. Will absolutely book again!”
“We had the absolute pleasure of booking Mrs. Joyce through the Rover app for a full week while we were out of town, and she completely exceeded our expectations! From the very first day, she checked in consistently, sent us thoughtful updates, and shared the most adorable photos of our beloved fur baby, Cato. It was clear from every message that she genuinely loves what she does and cares deeply for the pets she looks after. Knowing Cato was in such loving and attentive hands gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Her daily reports made us feel connected and reassured, and Cato looked so calm and content in every photo....which says everything about the kind of environment she creates. Mrs. Joyce is truly a gem, and we’re so grateful to have found her. She’ll be our go-to sitter from here on out, no question. We can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Rey is amazing with my puppy — she loves going there and having fun. He’s so attentive and does such creative things — pool party on the 4th! Thank you for your care of my baby. She will be back”
“Veronica took wonderful care of our dog, Latte, and we couldn't be happier with his stay. Everything was clean, organized, and felt very safe. Latte also had the opportunity to socialize with other small dogs, which he really enjoyed. One thing we especially appreciated was the structure Veronica provided. She was also a great problem solver when it came to Latte's resource guarding tendencies and handled the situation with confidence and care, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Veronica kept us updated throughout his stay by sending pictures and letting us know how he was doing. She was always very responsive whenever we had a question, which made us feel connected and reassured while we were away. Her husband was also incredibly kind when he welcomed Latte and genuinely seemed to enjoy having him as a guest. It was clear that they both truly care about the dogs they look after. We highly recommend Veronica and would absolutely trust her with Latte again!”
“Aida was a great sitter for my pup. She was very communicative with me and very attentive towards him. I was able to have peace of mind while on vacation as I was updated with pics and activities throughout each day I was gone. I highly recommend Aida for any of your dog sitting needs.”
“Markayla is an excellent sitter. I left my pet with her for a week, since we had to go out of town. Her communication was awesome, I received frequent updates and pictures about my pet. Upon picking up my dog, I could see that she and the dog had formed a strong bond... I highly recommend her and will be using her services again in the future.”
“We suddenly and unexpectedly needed a dog sitter for 6 straight days during the holidays (!!), and were able to book Kaitlyn with less than 24-hours notice. She was quick to reply, so understanding and compassionate, and made us feel a little less stressed about leaving town without our dog. She sent updates and photos throughout, and it was clear our dog was having a great time snuggling and playing with her and her own dogs. We would definitely hire Kaitlyn again.”
“You were amazing with bubbles. You sent pictures and videos of her daily I know she had an amazing time with you and your family. I can’t thank you enough for keeping her ❤️❤️❤️”

“I can’t say enough positive things about Keiwana and her family. They took great care of our Coco. Lots of attention and social connection, which was important for us. They provided updates and pictures to reassure us that she was being well taken care of. Very responsive to questions. They maintained a schedule our dog is familiar with. Plenty of walks, time outdoors and adequate feedings. We will definitely board with Keiwana and her family again.”

I can always tell if Bailey enjoyed his stay if he's not anxious to leave. This was our first time using Molly but Bailey felt right at home. Molly sent photos to us several times and followed our instructions about his care and feeding. We will be using her again.
Theresa was amazing with my dog Winnie! I was nervous to go on a multi-week trip after our usual dog sitter moved away. I found Theresa and she was a perfect fit. Super experienced and communicative. She sent lots of photos and Winnie seemed super happy and comfortable. She also has an incredible garden that’s such a peaceful space for the pups.
I used to get so anxious every time I had to board my dog because she has separation anxiety. I would always worry that she wasn’t eating, sleeping, or adjusting well while I was away. But ever since I found Ian, I feel so much more at ease. Ian's place has a great yard and my dog has made new friends at their house and always seems so happy there! They take such great care of her, and their huge yard is amazing for the dogs to run around and play. You can genuinely feel how much Ian and his wife love and care about the dogs they look after. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my dog is somewhere she feels safe, comfortable, and loved while I’m away. I’m so grateful I found them and would 10000% trust Ian with my dog again!
Kali was an extraordinary dog sitter for my very very anxious dog. My dog has significant anxiety which can be very difficult to work through but Kali was diligent and kind allowing my nervous pup to ease into a her environment. Kali gave frequent updates, pictures and videos, always asking if there’s anything else she could do to help ease the transition. Within a day my scared pup started to warm up and became inseparable from Kali. Not only did she have to deal with my pups anxiety but my pups eye drop regime! She did everything I asked and more, she exceeded my expectation. I can’t wait to use Kali again, she was amazing with my dog and just a lovely person!
Trishelle was great with my pet. She took him on short notice, when my sitter had an emergency and could not board him. I had a paid vacation already planned. Trishelle agreed to take him in on short notice. I received many pictures and messages on my week away. I have a senior, shy and very temperamental dog. The pictures put me @ ease. When I picked him up, he was well cared for. I can tell Trishelle truly cares for pets. I definitely would recommend her especially for boarding your pets for long periods.
Katie was absolutely amazing with Toby during his 3-week stay. We have previously booked Katie to care for Toby, and we were so happy to have her watch him again. Knowing Toby’s personality and needs, we felt completely at ease leaving him in her care. Toby is a sensitive dog who needs patience, understanding, and a calm environment, and Katie provided exactly that. Her regular updates, photos, and thoughtful attention gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Toby truly enjoyed his time with her and was treated like a part of her family. Thank you, Katie, for taking such wonderful care of our baby. We are so grateful for your kindness, patience, and love toward Toby. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!
We had our pup stay with Christina for a week and he was in the best hands! She was proactive about having a meet and greet with her pup, she provided so much information, and the many updates were so detailed! I know our boy had the best time and there couldn’t have been a better place for him to have stayed.

There are 2,004 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Middle River. About 93% of Middle River sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 pet, 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.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
