“Mady and her family were the best! My pup enjoyed walks, a large backyard to run around in, and the company of dog playmates. Mady consistently sent pictures and updates. I highly recommend Mady’s services, and will be rebooking with her again!”
“Crystal is such a thoughtful and caring sitter! Every time I take Scooter he comes out of his shell more and more. It’s been amazing watching him blossom. I’m so grateful to have found Crystal. She is a blessing to me and my furbaby!”
“Eli was awesome! My dog is somewhat shy but she took to Eli right away. Eli picked my furbaby up and once he was back to his home he sent a picture of my pooch and where she had her kennel setup. Skittles was able sit and stare out the windows, which she loves to do. I received plenty of pictures to put me at ease. Eli also had a camera setup so I could see my dog if I wanted!!! I’m super happy with Eli as he was on time for pickup and drop off and overall is a very nice person! I will definitely board my dog with Eli again!!!!”
“We absolutely loved the services and care that Gil provided for Enzo. We were able to frequently check up on him, and their response time was expedient. Gill and his family were very accommodating, and Enzo had a lot of fun! They took him on walks constantly. Fed him at our desired times and communicated regularly when we wanted to check on him. I definitely recommend using him as your next dog sitter.”
“Lynette & Vincent were AMAZING with my babygirl Snickers! Snicks has bad separation anxiety to the point where she won't eat and can be super antisocial but by the end of her stay with Lynette & Vincent she was more social and eating more. They sent lots of pics, which I truly appreciated, and I could see that my fur baby was really enjoying herself. I will def book with them again the next time I travel.”
“Nicole was amazing with our kitty on her first boarding experience. Nicole gave Paris the space to adjust at her pace, and gave lots of love and attention to make her feel at home. I loved all of the photos and videos each day so we could see how well she was doing!”
“Ms. Raynell was absolutely superb she communicated effectively. She was very polite and notified me if there were any concerns. Usually I’m a bit hesitant about leaving my dog with just anyone but I’m glad I did with Raynell. She goes above and beyond to make sure your pet is comfortable. 10/10 would definitely recommend!”
“Best kept secret! Only book with Eva if you want the following: - great care for your furbaby (i.e. lots of love and attention) - updates and photos of your furbaby having a great time - great communication and flexibility I will definitely rebook with Eva again!”
“Marianne and Nick did a great job taking care of Paris. They followed the instructions I left to the tee. Sent frequent updates with pictures. Paris was very happy and I could tell she enjoyed her time with them. Will definitely book again in the future.”
“I had such a wonderful experience! From the very beginning, she was kind, communicative, and incredibly attentive. She treated my pup like her own and kept me updated throughout the stay, and sent pictures! Cash was happy, comfortable, and so very relaxed! Obviously, he felt right at home! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable. We’ll be back!”
“Payton and Graham were fantastic with our dog, Indy. They have a backyard he loved playing in, but even more impressive they were able to get his halter on (he's extremely headshy) and take him on actual walks. Videos they sent showed Indy snuggling with Payton in a way he has only done with us before. Communication was excellent, and Indy clearly loved being there. Not only would we book again with Payton and Graham, I'm doing so right now!”
“This was my first time leaving my spoiled fur baby, and I was so nervous. April put my mind at ease from our first communication. She provided pictures to let me know Kobe had settled in and was doing well. I now feel comfortable making plans because I know I have a safe place for Kobe when I'm away. Thank you, April”
“Angela was amazing in caring for my dog while we were on vacation. She took great care of my elderly dog and gave him all of his daily medications. She communicated at least once a day and responded very quickly if I had any questions or concerns. I plan to rebook her the next time we need her care. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: My blend of genuine love for animals and hands on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Making sure older pups get the comfort, medication, and slower-paced walks they need. I believe every dog deserves personalized attention, so I tailor my care to their unique routines, quirks, and energy levels. Whether it’s playful fetch sessions, long neighborhood strolls, or cozy snuggle time, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I schedule my days around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and cuddle breaks. I keep a consistent rhythm for pets, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s morning walks before breakfast, midday potty breaks, or evening playtime, I make sure each pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I create a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to play, rest, and feel at ease. I stick closely to their usual feeding schedule, provide fresh water at all times, and make sure they get regular walks and playtime. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and cared for like family.
“So grateful for Julianna she watched my 10 week old puppy which I don’t know where to begin our puppy usually we just clean to my daughter but went to Julianna with ease she was very thorough and asked anything. If there was anything that we forgot that we could message her. She sent pictures and updates and text my daughter the whole time yes glad I found her it was a little different circumstances with a 10 week old puppy because he wasn’t fully vaccinated and could not be around any other dogs so she work out perfectly for us definitely will use again in the future”
“It's reassuring to know that your dog's caretaker likes your dog (almost) as much as you do. I could tell by the texts and photos Jeff sent me during Ruth's stay with him that they were having a blast. I returned home to a worn-out, happy pup. I can't ask for more. Thanks Jeff!”
“Rahki had a great time with Lisa. She made sure he was well fed and received cuddles while he was with her. I received several photos and a video, which were very appreciated. I recommend Lisa and would use her again.”
About: Hello! If you’re looking for a caregiver who combines deep personal love for animals with professional medical awareness, you’ve found the right spot. I know that pets aren’t just animals—they’re family—and I treat every dog and cat in my care with the exact same love, patience, and vigilance I’d give my own. My Background & Experience Clinical Insight & Safety: My journey in pet care includes a full year working on the ground at Friendship Hospital for Animals in Washington, DC. Working in a top-tier veterinary hospital environment taught me how to read animal body language, handle pets safely and gently, stay calm under pressure, and quickly spot if a pet is feeling under the weather. Long-Term Personal Care: For over 6 years, I’ve been the go-to sitter for a sweet Yorkie, managing daily routines, feeding, walks, and tons of cuddle time. That long-term experience taught me how important consistency, routine, and clear communication are for both pets and their parents. What You Can Count On: Peace of Mind: You’ll get clear, daily updates and plenty of photos so you always know your pet is happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Specialized Care: Thanks to my hospital experience, I’m comfortable following precise dietary routines, administering medications, or accommodating special senior/small-dog needs. A Calm, Nurturing Environment: Whether your dog is an energetic explorer or a quiet couch potato, I adapt my approach to make them feel comfortable and secure. I look forward to meeting you and your furry companion! Feel free to send me a message to arrange a Meet & Greet or ask any questions. My Daily Schedule Because I work from home 4 days a week, your pet will enjoy almost constant company throughout the day! I only go into an office once a week, so my weekday routine revolves primarily around being at home and attentive to my pet guests. I do workout throughout the week, but my workout routine is completely flexible—I always prioritize feeding schedules and morning walks before or after depending on your pet’s needs. Weekends vary, so feel free to reach out with your dates and we can coordinate! Safety, Trust, & Home Setup Outdoor Space: Located in a dog-friendly neighborhood with widespread grassy areas and safe walking routes for daily exercise and potty breaks. Indoor Setup: Generous living room space for relaxing and a dedicated basement area. I have ample space for temporary crating if requested or needed for safe management. Clinic-Level Standards: Double-checking leashes/harnesses before stepping outside, maintaining strict door-awareness to prevent bolting, and recognizing early signs of pet stress or discomfort.
“Bria was AMAZING with my little pup. She took excellent care for him while I was on a trip. I received timely updates with pictures about how he was doing. He was happy with her and really took to her. She has an excellent spirited personality which I'm sure makes pups like her so much. I would definitely trust her with my precious pup again and I highly recommend her. She was also flexible with my drop off and pick up time.”

Emma is GREAT! I’ve reached out on short notice twice, and she was accommodating, welcoming, and extremely friendly. She is knowledgeable, communicative, and responds very quickly.My dog Jasper, on his second stay jumped out the car excited to see his new best friend. I am extremely comfortable recommending Emma to anyone looking for a loving pet sitter.
Experience unparalleled service that goes beyond expectations! From the moment you reach out, you’ll be kept informed with timely updates and detailed insights. Imagine receiving pictures with context, full descriptions of your dogs’ activities, and an accurate portrayal of their personalities and interactions.

The dedication and care they provide are so exceptional that you’ll find yourself planning your schedule around their availability to ensure your spot. Your dogs will be treated like family, enjoying a vacation of their own while you relax and recharge. It’s not just a pet sitting experience; it’s a peace of mind that your furry friends are in the best hands. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to give your dogs the ultimate care and attention. From the time you book you will see why they are truly the best! Top-tier care I can highly recommend!
As always, we had such a great experience with Mady! She was wonderful with our two senior pups and was incredibly patient, caring, and attentive to their needs. She communicated with us regularly and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our pups were happy and well cared for when we got home. We truly appreciate the love and attention she gave them and would absolutely recommend her!
Alicia took great care of my dog! She sent regular updates and photos, was super flexible and accommodating with several last-minute changes, and made the whole experience so easy. My dog was in great hands, and I could actually relax knowing she was being well cared for. Would definitely book with her again!
We appreciate Aaliyah taking care of our Teddy. She did a great job with him. From the meet and greet it was evident that she really cares about her clients. I was amazed how she walked right up and he was chill with her. She is super communicative. . . Within minutes really. She sent pictures and reached out if she had any questions. She really made me feel at peace leaving him with her. Can’t provide enough gratitude and appreciation for her care. I’d definitely book her again. Thanks again Aaliyah!
Alison and her husband took wonderful care of my dog, Nagi! She developed stress-related diarrhea during her stay, and I truly appreciate the extra time, patience, and kindness they showed her. Their updates gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear that Nagi was well cared for and loved. They also gave me great advice on how to treat her diarrhea, and thanks to their guidance, I now know how to better prepare Nagi for her next stay to help prevent the same thing from happening again. They also helped me understand what to pack in case it does happen again, making it much easier to manage. Nagi also had a great time with their two lovely dogs, and I think she really enjoyed being part of their pack. Thank you so much for welcoming her into your home and taking such amazing care of her. I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again!
Nicole exceeded my expectations. I couldn't have chosen a better person to care for my dog for the first time wihle I was away. She communicated daily with updates, pictures and videos which eased my mind that my dog was in good hands. I would definitely use Nicole again for my next boarding.

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Mitchellville can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Mitchellville 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 Mitchellville.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Mitchellville. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Mitchellville 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
