“Tina is great with Alex. She responded to my message quickly. She sent photos of Alex to let me know how he is doing. I will use her service again when I am in the area.”
“I had to leave my dog Thenji with Adrienne and Nick at very short notice. They were able to take her. It was so reassuring to know that she was being so lovingly cared for!”
“We use Sarah exclusively now and Huck loves going to her house. This stay we had a medical emergency that prevented us from making drop off. Sarah drove out of her way to pick Huck up with it being her suggestion. This was such a huge help to us. We are so grateful and thankful that we found her!!”
“Very good experience everytime with the sitter. They always send pictures and vedios and give all the updates. We know that our Shiner is always in good hands. We are very thankful.”
“Terri was amazing. So chill and relaxed around our sensitive dog. She is one of those rare sitters that does not have her own dogs or cats and is 100% dedicated to yours. She has a house and yard that are peaceful and quiet and in a great neighborhood for interesting walks. I would 100% recommend Terri, she is an absolute gem.”
“Jennifer seriously saves our lives!! We travel a lot on short notice for weekends and jennifer is so flexible and has always worked with us to watch our 2 year old pitbull. And he absolutely LOVES going to her house. He doesnt even turn around to say goodbye when we drop him off he just runs in. Its relieving knowing he is in good hands while we are away. Jennifer has watched him many times and we will keep going back to her!”
“Jesse was wonderful! She took such great care of our dog, Lilah, and provided plenty of picture updates every day! 10/10 would recommend Jesse! Will definitely be booking her again in the future!”
“Sandra and her family are extremely loving. I just used her October 22nd-25th. This was the first time my first baby and I have been apart outside of dog training. I was extremely nervous. I went over about a week prior for a meet and greet. Her property is large and plenty of room for animals and kids to run and play. The amount of pics and updates I received each day was amazing. I knew Sam was having an amazing time making new friends and enjoying his mini vacation. I would highly recommend her and I will use her again in the future.”
“Shaynna was awesome. She was willing to take Kelce on a last minute basis. She was also able to tell when Kelce was stressed and was able to give her the attention she needed. She gave updates and sent a picture. I will definitely book with Shaynna again when the time comes about.”
“Priscila (and her mom) did an awesome job with our two pups! We got pictures and videos and updates on our week-long vacation and our boys looked very happy. You can really tell they are animal lovers. I would not hesitate to book with her again!”
“Marne was super easy to work with on times and schedule. Meet & Greet was a nice to ensure both parties were comfortable. They were so dog-friendly and from the pictures i could tell Lexi was being well taken care of by their family! Marne seemed very relaxed about Lexi being there, on the furniture etc. When I picked Lexi up she was excited but seemed happy and content. Since pick up day, Lexi has slept like a champ, I think she loved being around other dogs. Thank You Marne, John & E for taking Lexi into your pack. As my dog gets older, it's hard to leave her in a kennel and I'm thrilled to have you as an option!!”
“Rene truly is a dog whisperer! Very attentive and helpful updates throughout the stay to lower our dog’s home sickness and ours as well. Will definitely book her again.”
“We booked her at the last minute and she was very flexible and helpful! She and her family took really good care of our pup. We loved the photos that she sent us of our dog playing.”
“Ashley is amazing! This was our first experience boarding our girl Stella and we could not have picked a better spot. Ashley sent pictures and videos. She reached out for suggestions when Stella was enjoying herself too much to stop and eat. We are already looking at dates for her to return for more fun.”
About: I have recently relocated to Frederick, Maryland from California after recently retiring & wanting to be closer to family <3 I have over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and rabbits, including senior and special-needs pets and animals requiring medications. I currently have a French Bulldog, four cats, and a rabbit of my own, so caring for multiple animals with different personalities, routines, and needs is part of my everyday life. I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding and care instructions, providing walks and enrichment, and recognizing changes in an animal’s behavior or health. I’ve also volunteered with animal shelters in both California and North Carolina. I worked as a first responder for almost 14 years, I’m dependable, trustworthy, safety-conscious, and take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pets very seriously. I’m retired with a completely flexible schedule, so pet care can easily be accommodated throughout my day. I’m available mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays for boarding, doggy daycare, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I provide a safe, comfortable environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I have a fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time and plenty of indoor space, including separate areas when a visiting pet needs their own quiet space away from my animals. I’m experienced with medications, senior and special-needs pets, and will closely follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions. I will treat your animals as if they were my own while I am trusted with their care. As a retired first responder, safety, responsibility, trust, and attention to detail are extremely important to me. 🐶😺🐰🏡🐾
“Jon and Jen are fantastic!!! My pooches came home worn out!! Their communication was amazing!! They sent the best pics and kept us updated on how the dogs were doing! They spoiled our fur babies and treated them like they were part of the family! It was so reassuring to know our dogs were so well taken care of while we were out of town!”
“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.”

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 Monterey 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 Monterey.
<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 Monterey 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 PA 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.
