“Chad is such a great dog sitter. I love getting pics and updates. My pup is always excited to go to his house and spend time with Chad and his family. He’s a go-to for us when we are traveling.”
“I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Edward and Natalia. We had a meet and greet a week prior where they asked a lot of questions and observed Ralphie with their sweet pup, Liz Lemon. I always worry leaving Ralphie with a new Rover. He has been described as “extra” and needs a lot of attention/human presence. Within an hour of dropping him off, I got a note that he is settling in fine with a picture of him cozied up with the family and this eased my mind immensely. They were very responsive when I reached out and had everything ready to go when I picked him up. The biggest testament, however, is Ralphie’s behavior on the drive home. If let’s me know if he didn’t like his stay somewhere, but leaving Natalia and Edward he was calm and well behaved. They deserve this 5-star review and j would recommend them to my friends and family without hesitation.”
“My pup is a regular at daycare and this was her second time boarding with Cal and Kelly. Pup clearly loved every minute of her stay! appreciate all the photo and video updates — it’s so nice to see how happy and comfortable she is while I’m away. Highly recommend!”
“Haydenn was super responsive and wonderful with our 10 year old dog, Fern. We had to make a change in our plans at the last minute, and he was very accommodating. We would definitely use him again in the future!”
“Aleyda took great care of our dog Ty - he came home content and happy and well exercised. Aleyda was extremely communicative - we received multiple pictures and texts each day. You can tell that she really loves dogs, gets to know them individually and cares about them. I would highly recommend her and will ask her to sit for Ty again anytime.”
“Maryjo and Jon were great. They were easy to coordinate with and took great care of our dog like it was their own. Hope to book them for future dog sitting.”
“Jiao kept in close communication about our dog. She sent several pictures and videos per day. My dog acted happy and playful in her house. She came recommended by a friend and I would definitely book with her again.”
“Benny loves going to Shanilka’s, and I love knowing that he is getting such great care. We are a repeat customer and will continue booking with Shanilka. We couldn’t be happier.”
“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!”
“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💯”
“Kamille looked after our dog Toby (schnauzer, 8 years old) for over a week while we were out of town, and we were so glad that he was in her care! We loved the many video updates of his meals, walks, and hangouts in the dog park -- he definitely made a ton of new friends! Kamille was also really mindful of Toby's reaction to other dogs while out of walks and gave us a couple helpful tips when we came to pick him up. 100% recommend and we look forward to reaching out to Kamille again in the future! :)”
“I've booked with Julia a few times now and always have a great experience. She spends lots of time with my dog and sends lots of photos. She has multiple spaces so she can group dogs by energy level and individualize your dogs experience. I love that my dog gets to socialize with another chihuahua, without being overwhelmed by higher energy dogs. And she has a great yard for the dogs to sniff around.”
“Aashna and Sidanth took excellent care of our dog. Communication was fantastic – they sent updates and photos twice a day. We felt very comfortable leaving him with them and would definitely rebook.”
“Abigail took great care of our aging fur baby. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos. We definitely plan to reach out to her for future dogsitting!”
“Madeleine was amazing with Beigee. I could see how happy she was when I received the pictures. She was great at communicating and I would definitely recommend her. Can’t wait to use her again.”
“River took such good care of Louie while I was away. She was very communicative, sent updates, and made sure all of my questions were answered before the stay so I could have peace of mind. Louie settled right in and had a good time staying with her and Laguna!”
“Faustine took such wonderful care of our pup! She provided frequent adorable updates and I could tell her was so at ease in her home. Would absolutely book with her again.”
“Stephanie and Luis did an amazing job dog sitting! Communication was great from start to finish, and they kept me updated with pictures, which really put my mind at ease. They were so welcoming and even created a special space in their home for Coco and Chloe. I’d definitely trust them and rebook again!”
“Caleb was a perfect sitter. He was flexible and communicative and made sure my dog was comfortable and happy throughout his stay. Already booked for another stay, highly recommend.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Silver Spring
My dogs were well cared for, and Natalia and Edward were very accommodating and flexible for meet & greet, scheduling drop off, and pickup. I appreciated the update photos of the dogs enjoying their company and cozying up on the sofa with their own pup as well. Natalia and Edward seem to enjoy what they do and caring for others’ pets, and I would definitely book with them again. Thanks guys!
After our meet and greet, I knew Tim, his wife and pup Mindy would be a good fit for Izzy. They did a great job communicating with us. From the updates, photos and video, we could tell that Izzy was well cared for and treated like one of their own beloved dogs. We really appreciated the pup pick-up & drop off option at our house and the safe dog seat they had. Highly recommend!
I was away on a long trip and anxious about being away from Charlie for such a long time. Stephen cared for Charlie like he was part of his family. I received daily updates about Charlie's activities, and the photos gave me peace of mind that Charlie was having a great time and being treated like a king. Charlie also has a medical condition, and Stephen was diligent about administering medications and monitoring Charlie. I highly recommend Stephen to care for your pup when you need to travel. 5/5 stars!
Noah did a fabulous job watching my dog for the week! This is the second time Noah has taken care of him, and I felt so comfortable all week knowing that my dog was in capable hands. When my travel plans changed, Noah was responsive and accommodating with adjusting the pickup timeline. I highly recommend Noah for dog sitting.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Silver Spring 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.
