“Nicole was amazing! She communicated very well, sent texts with updates, she sent pictures and she answered every call and text. I was nervous for my first boarder experience but she made it SO easy and comfortable! Her energy and aura will make you feel at ease! I will definitely be using her again💯”
“Jeff was absolutely fantastic with our senior dog - thank you for taking such wonderful care of him! Very easy to work with from booking to pick up - incredibly helpful and accommodating for our last minute trip. We can’t wait to see him again!”
“Beth was fantastic with Marty! She sent frequent photos and updates, and Marty was calm and content when I picked him up. An extra bonus is that he had a frenchie friend to hang out with! I will definitely request Beth’s services again.”
“Colleen took wonderful care of our cockapoo for 3 days. She sent photos several times and provided photos. She also was able to give some eyedrops several times per day that our dog required. My dog seemed content and well cared for. Thank you.”
“Loic took excellent care of Enzo. We were delayed during travel and Loic was very flexible and let us know Enzo was in good hands. He kept in frequent contact with us and Enzo enjoyed his stay. I highly recommend Loic and would use his services again.”
“Aaron and Paweena were absolutely amazing! For our first experience with Rover, we couldn't have asked for better sitters for our Ruby. They updated us every day with pictures and videos and were very caring for our pup! We would definitely use them again in the future! Your dog will be in great hands with them!”
“Rut has been my dog’s sitter multiple times now, and she’s always been trustworthy and reliable. I received several updates to confirm that my dog has been taking his medicine, eating his meals, and going to the bathroom as usual. She also keeps her space tidy and my dog’s paws and fur clean!”
About: I am a true Capitol Hill dog lover and I have always had a strong passion for animals, mostly for dogs. I have been caring for dogs since I was child, taking care of my mother’s beloved shitzu. Taking care of her helped me acquire basic canine behavior and taught me the responsibility of taking care of a pet. Most recently I raised my own best friend, Gelato an English Bulldog. I gained my breeder experience with Gelato and cared for her and her 6 puppies, until they were rehomed at 8 months. I enjoy taking long walks, which I consider the ultimate stress reliever and best way to exercise. I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I have 20 years of experience in the customer service field and enjoy striving to provide the best experience to my clients. In my personal time I am spending time with my 2 little girls teaching them how to play sports, and of course how to be loving pet owners. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page! I’m currently working part time and will be available to walk most pets during early mornings hours during the week and mid day and evenings during the weekend. I definitely would like to know your pets temperament, and what might scare them. I know they will feel most comfortable at home but if they are with me, I’d like to keep a calm, pet friendly setting for them to be comfortable in.
“Jasmin took good care of our husky. She was very communicative about his needs and how she could best help him settle in with her family while we were out of the country. She was patient, caring, and knowledgeable about huskies, all of which we appreciated!”
“Andrew and Adva were fantastic with my older pup-they helped her manage her mobility issues, took her for lots of slow, easy walks, and kept her comfortable with constant company. They sent daily updates and photos too. Andrew and Adva put me at ease right away; they are kind, calm, and flexible. I didn't feel apprehensive about leaving my senior dog for five days. I will absolutely request them again!”
“Rahel did a wonderful job with our girl Shirley! She sent pictures, gave us updates, and I could tell that our girl was happy! We will definitely be using Rahel again!”
“First time Rover user. Jen took the time out of her schedule to do a meet and greet and they immediately feel in love. She’s wonderful and we will be back. Thank you sooo much!”
“Caitlin did a wonderful job taking care of Addison! She was great about communication, took her on lots of walks, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. We could tell Addison was happy and well cared for, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book with Caitlin again!”
“Maryjo and Jon were fantastic hosts to Luna. Luna really appreciated this calm and cozy home of pup super-fans (and she enjoyed tearing apart the squeaky toy they lent her!). I had great peace of mind while away on a lengthy vacation that Luna was safe, sound and having fun! Thanks very much.”
“Austin and Majid took great care of our dog, Maisie over the holiday. They were amazing at keeping us in the loop, and Maisie came home happy and healthy.”
“Steph put my mind and heart at ease from the moment of our first contact on the app, and my feelings of trust and gratitude continued through Ben’s whole stay.”
“Ayla was incredible!! This was my first time ever using Rover, as well as ever leaving my puppy with someone while I was away. However, Ayla made me feel comfortable that Ruthie was in good hands from the start. She sent daily pictures of Ruthie playing with her beagle and was quick to reply to any and all questions I had. I will definitely be rebooking with Ayla!”
“Pamela was wonderful with Queenie! He stayed with her for 3 nights and she sent regular updates. I’m always a little nervous about leaving him somewhere new because he is a senior dog with some minor health issues, but she handled him perfectly. Her dog Cassie is very sweet and the 2 got along well. Would definitely book with Pamela again!!”

Janay quite genuinely saved our sweet boys life! We left him with her while we are out of the country and he got sick for the first time in his life. She recognized the signs immediately and took him to the emergency vet and went out of her way to watch out for him. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOO JANAY!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Khariss! She was absolutely amazing, and I’m so happy I found her! From our very first conversation, she was warm, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. She has such a lovely personality, and I could tell right away that Winston would be in good hands. Winston can be pretty apprehensive around new people, so I’m always a little nervous leaving him with someone new. But Khariss was so patient and gentle with him that he warmed up to her almost immediately, which really says a lot! She was also kind enough to arrange a meet and greet beforehand, and I really appreciated how flexible she was with drop off and pickup. Throughout his stay, she was very attentive to Winston’s needs and made every effort to keep him comfortable and on his regular schedule. She sent me wonderful pictures and updates, which I absolutely loved! It was so reassuring to see how well he was doing and know he was being cared for. What I appreciated just as much was her attention to all the little details. Winston has his own routine and can be a little particular, but Khariss handled everything beautifully. She truly went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and well cared for, and that meant so much to me. Khariss is honestly just a lovely person, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Finding someone you feel completely comfortable leaving your fur baby with isn’t always easy, but she made the entire experience so much easier. I already know she’ll be my go to sitter whenever Winston needs boarding again. I would recommend Khariss without hesitation. She’s truly a gem, and if I could give her more than five stars, I absolutely would .
Juan & Felipe were amazing! They kept me updated on while we were away with text messages and photos. I felt very comfortable and at ease while away. They clearly showered him with love and fetch as he fell asleep on the way home! Thanks to the two of them and Romo for sharing the love and toys 🧸🐶❤️
Super friendly, sent me constant updates with pictures letting me know how my doggy was coping. Doggy was really comfortable with her almost immediately and it was really nice to see that she relaxed and spent time with her, not just had her at her house. Will definitely be using her service again. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I’m so grateful for Aleyna and Dinçer for taking such good care of my senior dog Ese Alejandro. They sent me constant updates and made me feel so comfortable with the care and attention they were giving him. He’s 16 years old and having that peace of mind that he’s well cared for is priceless.
Nicole was amazing! She sent daily pictures, was very accommodating, and always responded quickly to my messages. I had just adopted Scrap and was nervous about boarding because he has some behavioral issues, but Nicole made me feel completely at ease. After bringing him home, I noticed he’s friendlier around cats and seems to listen better, which is wonderful to see! I’m not sure how she did it, but I’m so grateful. I was able to enjoy my trip worry-free knowing Scrap was in such good hands. I highly recommend Nicole!
I wanna give a special thanks to Aaron for understanding and having patience with walnut. This was walnut first time having a dog sitter and he is very clingy to us but Aaron took his time with him and walnut got adjusted pretty well. He sent pictures and videos before I can ask which was reassuring and appreciated.
SO GREAT!!! Lip is a great dog but he can be a handful, so it always stresses us to leave him in someone else’s care. Stephanie and Luis could not have been better sitters! The photos and updates gave us great piece of mind while we traveled and I’ve never seen Lip so happy and comfortable without my wife and I around!! We know who to call for every future dog sitting need. Would happily recommend to all our friends!!! Will definitely book again!!! Thanks so much! Truly!!!
Caitlin did a wonderful job taking care of Addison! She was great about communication, took her on lots of walks, and kept us updated with photos and messages throughout the stay. We could tell Addison was happy and well cared for, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book with Caitlin again!

The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 Mount Rainier 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 Mount Rainier 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 Mount Rainier.
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 Mount Rainier. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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 Mount Rainier 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.
