“Steph is absolutely AMAZING! First off it was short notice maybe 4 hours before I had to leave and everyone kept turning me down until this wonderful woman was kind enough to take her in . My baby had a blast with her and Jax. She sent me pictures and you could see the happiness in my baby’s eyes . Anytime I go out of town Valkyrie will be hanging out with her new bestfriend Jax . Definitely 10 out 10”
“She had done greet with our dog lili she is about a year and six months old no issues at all very knowledgeable of dogs in their situations as well as understanding their behavior with no issues she took care of my dog and my dog played with her dog so now my dog has a friend they went to the park together and everything and she bought my dog back, clean safe and sound no issues Thank you very much once again for watching her for the five days. It’s been great. We definitely use her again just for dog play dates. Also she’s amazing. Don’t hesitate.”
“After multiple sitters canceling, I found Rover and Danielle, who was happy to watch Remi at the last minute. The universe knew what it was doing, as Danielle and Remi bonded the moment they met. As he spent the majority of his life as a puppy mill papa, Remi can be challenging. As a teacher and a mom, Danielle had the skills and patience to work with him. She kept us updated throughout the weekend and it was easy to see the Remi was happy and content. I’m fairly certain Remi didn’t want to come home !! We couldn’t be happier to have found someone to care for our dog like one of her own! Next time we need somebody to care for our pup, she will absolutely be our first call!”
“Chrissy was awesome. This was my first experience using Rover in Baltimore and couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Communicated often, sent pictures, periodic updates and can tell Bear loved hanging with Dublin. Thank you so much again for everything and will definitely be my #1 go to ?”
“My dog Luna seemed to have enjoyed her time at Linda’s home and playing with the other dogs. Linda was communicative and flexible.i appreciated the daily photos and sometimes even videos. I will be booking with her again.”
“We were extremely happy with our dog’s stay with Melissa! She is incredibly responsible, always responds quickly, and is exceptionally reliable. 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.”
“Nicole and her family were amazing. I received a constant flow of updates and pictures. It was just a relief to know that my puppy was in such great hands.”
“This was my first time using Roover and I can say Jessica surpassed my expectations for a sitter. I was hesitant to leave our puppy with just anyone, but after meeting Jessica I knew he was in good hands. I look forward to using her in the future.”
“Keiwana and her gorgeous family took amazing care of our 4 month old puppy Rosie. They were so kind and patient - Rosie made more than a few mistakes but they were so understanding and graceful about it. Keiwana also sent us so many great pictures of Rosie throughout the weekend! Rosie made some new friends with their sweet dog Bailey and two little girls, and she didn’t want to leave when we came to get her! (but when we did get back home, she was so tired and napped like an angel). We would most definitely use them again (but maybe when Rosie’s older so their beautiful house doesn’t get any more puppy damage!!) Thank you SO MUCH to Keiwana & family!!”
“Rey is consistent as always. Gets better photos of my dog than I ever could and I've never seen my Husky so excited to hop in someone else's vehicle. Best dog watcher around for sure!”
“We had a great experience with Julia & Jacob. They took such s wonderful care of our dog while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind to receive regular updates, pictures, and videos — it was clear our dog was happy, safe, and well-loved. Communication was easy, and everything went smoothly. They truly went above and beyond by picking up and dropping off our dog, which made everything so much easier for us. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”
“Aida sent pictures daily and made sweet observations about our pup, letting me know she sees him for who he is! She showed enormous patience and understanding. Will definitely rebook!”
“Alexis did a great job with BOLT :) He loved his stay there and cannot wait to visit again in a couple of weeks. For the first time in six years we were able to leave Bolt with a sitter and had consistent communication and NO SEIZURES!! Thank you again Alexis!!”
“Leydi and her family did a excellent job keeping Nova for a week while I was out of town taking care of personal family business. Nova enjoyed having other dogs her size to play with. I will surely use Leydi again in the future.”
“I really want to thank Janelle, Joanna and Gwendolyn for the excellent love they gave my Broc and Remi. You could feel from the first meeting your fur babies would be in good hands. They asked very good questions about your pets, so that they could render the best care. I received updates, pictures and videos showing the fun Broc and Remi was having. I could tell Broc and Remi were having lots of fun playing with their dog Zoe. If I ever need a sitter again, I'll definitely reach out to them and hope they're available. Thank you Ladies again and thank you Rover for your service.”
“Emily & Patrick are wonderful pet people! They took great care of Karson while we were away and sent us updates as promised. Karson loved hanging with his new friend Biscuit (Emily & Patrick's dog) too! Highly recommend them!”
“Erin was totally a pleasure and kind person to work with. From scheduling a meet and greet with our Maxx a few weeks before to sending updates with pictures. We never once had to worry about my our baby Maxx while chilling on the beaches in Cancun, Mexico.”

I couldn’t be more thankful to Erin for the care she gave my dog, Piper. Piper is a very anxious Aussie who doesn’t warm up to new people easily or quickly, so I was nervous about a last minute boarding need. Erin was incredibly kind, responsive, and accommodating, arranging a meet and greet and welcoming a very shy dog. Throughout her stay, I received regular updates, and it was clear Piper was given the time and space she needed to settle in. I’m so grateful for how thoughtfully Piper was cared for and how accommodating Erin was of both her needs and my last minute request.
Wonderful sitter! They were reliable, caring, and had such a great spirit when it came to meeting all of my puppy’s needs. They even noticed that he needed a little extra comfort and thoughtfully bought him a blanket. They kept me updated throughout the stay, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my puppy was in such caring hands. I would definitely book with them again!
My pup Strawberry enjoyed her stay with Elizabeth. Elizabeth cared for my pup like she was her own dog. She kept me abreast of how Strawberry was doing and sent lots of pictures and videos. She was flexible about pickup and drop off times which is definitely appreciated since I travel by plane a lot and have no control over my arrival time back home!
Heather watched my dog Nova for a week, and everything went smoothly. Nova was kept safe, fed on schedule, and returned home healthy and in good spirits. All of the core instructions were followed as requested, and the stay was completed without any issues or complications. I appreciate the dependable care during my time away.
Halimah was a great sitter for my dog. Despite it being a longer stay, she took the time to meet with my dog and I, decide if we were a good fit, and reassured me of any concerns I may have while away (pictures/videos sent, very communicative). Zada is a great dog as well and I wish them the best of luck on future endeavors, a very nice pair!
Absolutely wonderful experience. We were nervous leaving our 4-month-old puppy for the first time, but Linda made the entire process stress-free. He watched our dog for three days and went above and beyond to keep us updated. The videos and pictures she sent weren't just quick snaps, they showed our pup playing, napping, and looking totally relaxed, which meant the world to us. It was obvious Linda took the time to make our young pup feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. Thanks to her, we actually got to enjoy our vacation without worrying. We will definitely be booking again.
Irma was great! She was very friendly and personable took such great care of my 70lb boxer/lab, and he came home happy and healthy. She has a nice sized fenced yard for all the dogs to roam and play in. She sent daily pictures and videos of my dog's activities. I would definitely use her again and recommend anyone else to also.

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.
93% of sitters in Parkville 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 Parkville 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 Parkville.
<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 Parkville 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.
