“Had another great stay with Beth, Bud, & Ruby. Molly loves staying there, she was excited whenever we pulled into the driveway, and Beth keeps in touch with great pics and updates. You can definitely feel the love and affection that she has for all dogs...and cats. Thanks again, and see you again soon!”

“Amber was the perfect pet sitter when we couldn't travel with our dog Khyro during the holidays. My wife and I loved the daily updates and pictures/videos. It made us feel markedly better knowing he was enjoying his time away from us. Khyro definitely didn't make it easy on her, because he was prescribed an antibiotic and a topical cream for an open wound the day of dropoff! But Amber had no problem administering the drugs, and his wound was all healed when we got back. Khyro can't wait until the next time he spends time with Amber and her wonderful family.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and would love to help out with your fur baby! I know the challenges of finding trustworthy care so I’m here to help. I currently work from home and teach online which allows extra flexibility to help care for animals through the week. I love dogs and will give extra love and care. No cats please. I can host your small - medium dog or will do drop in visits and walks. I have experience caring for our senior dog and recently said goodbye to him. 💔

Beth kept my lab for me while we were moving. I had never boarded her before and she is extremely close to me. We had been through a house fire which was traumatic for all of us. She reacted so well to Beth and I felt so reassured when I left her there. Beth was absolutely amazing, sending pictures daily and giving me updates on how she was. The entire experience was so good, I highly recommend Beth if you are needing a place to keep your dog and know they are being treated like you would treat them at home. I can't say enough good about this experience!

Beth is a perfect sitter for our Rosy - she feels comfortable and happy in Beth’s home and we couldn’t ask for a better place for Rosy to stay for vacation!

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 Ocean 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 Ocean.

<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 Ocean 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 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.
