About: I’ve taken care of pets since college, I always help friends, relatives or neighbours to take care of their dogs and cats. These fluffy cuties naturally like me for the first sight, I don’t know why😂. I love walking outside, so it’s a dream job for me to walk your dog. I’m currently working part time WFH, so have plenty time to take care of your pet. I’m normally available at every weekend and weekday, very flexible, you can book or cancel on the same day. I live in a townhouse having private entrance, a fenced backyard and plenty parking spots. I have two friendly cats at home, so many toys to play with your pets in my place.
About: I’m a recent college graduate with 10 years of pet care experience and a genuine love for animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and reptiles. I have the most experience caring for large breed dogs such as Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, and Labradoodle mixes, and I’m confident handling strong, high-energy pets. I also enjoy caring for small dogs and cats and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. My schedule is flexible, I’m able to now dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I enjoy keeping animals active, engaged, and comfortable throughout the day with walks, playtime, attention, and companionship. As a recent college graduate, I’m able to provide dependable care and make sure your pet gets the attention and exercise they need while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I prefer creating a calm, loving environment where pets can feel relaxed and part of the family. I don’t like keeping animals caged unless it’s necessary or part of their normal routine, and I always respect each pet’s individual needs and personality. I make time for exercise, play, and affection so pets can burn energy, stay happy, and feel secure while in my care.
About: I've been caring for dogs for about 10 years. Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy the companionship, personality, and happiness they bring. I currently have my own 10-year-old Labrador Retriever mix named Buddy, who is about 45 lbs. I've also provided boarding for multiple dogs at a time, caring for as many as five dogs together and for stays as long as 30 days. I've cared for dogs of all different sizes and ages, from dogs around 5 lbs to dogs around 100 lbs, as well as puppies and senior dogs. I've also cared for dogs who require medication and am comfortable administering medications as long as I have clear instructions on the dosage, schedule, and the way your dog is most comfortable receiving it. I have experience with feeding, walks, bathing, grooming, nail trimming, playtime, and basic training. I also understand that every dog has a different personality. Some dogs want to run and play all day, while others are happiest relaxing beside you on the couch. I try to learn what makes each dog comfortable and make their stay feel as much like home as possible. My goal is to provide a comfortable, loving home where your dog gets plenty of attention and never feels like they're simply being "boarded." I do this full-time and work from home, so I’m home throughout the day to provide potty breaks, meals, playtime, exercise, and plenty of attention. I don’t leave the house for work, which allows me to give your dog consistent care and companionship throughout the day. Drop-offs are available from 11:00 AM–11:55 PM. Early drop-offs before 11:00 AM are available for a $15 fee. Need an earlier start? Book the night before so your pup can arrive early, settle in comfortably, and be ready for the day. 🐾 I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can enjoy regular outdoor time throughout the day. A typical morning starts with outdoor time for about 30 minutes, followed by breakfast. After eating, I'll give them another opportunity to go outside for approximately 30 minutes to an hour, depending on their preference and the weather. I'll continue providing additional potty breaks and playtime throughout the day. I want to keep your dog's normal routine as much as possible. If your dog normally has lunch, a snack, or meals at a specific time, just let me know and I'll follow their schedule. I also ask that you let me know their normal dinner time so I can keep them on their usual routine. After dinner, I'll give them another opportunity to go outside and enjoy some time in the backyard. I also provide a final potty break right before bedtime. If your dog normally goes to bed at a specific time, please let me know so I can accommodate their usual bedtime routine. My wife typically goes to bed earlier, while I stay up later, so if your dog needs a later-night potty break, I'm happy to accommodate that as well. Dogs are welcome to relax on my furniture or use one of my dog beds. I have toys and treats available, including Milk-Bone biscuits, but I'm happy to follow your dog's normal diet. If your dog has a specific type of treat, a specific feeding routine, or should not receive treats, please let me know or send their preferred treats with them. For overnight stays, dogs have their own room, and I'm happy to accommodate their normal sleeping routine. If your dog prefers sleeping in a crate or outside of a crate, just let me know ahead of time. I have beds and gates available, and can accommodate a crate when needed.
“I left my puppy Law for Day Care with Erika and Franklin. They took great care of law from sun up til sun down. They were able follow instructions to a T, responded quickly, asked questions and provided photos throughout the day as requested. Definitely would recommend!”
About: I treat pet sitting as a professional responsibility, not just a hobby. I focus on behavioral observation—noticing the small changes in mood or appetite that others might miss—ensuring your pet is not just safe, but truly comfortable. Whether your pet is a high-energy toddler or a dignified senior, my goal is to provide a seamless, stress-free experience for both of you. I’m currently an active duty full time college student that has plenty of time to their self. I wake up early in the morning around 5:00 to work out before I start my day off and I’m home everyday at 12:00 after class. I rarely have plans on the weekend so I am mostly free the whole day Saturday and Sunday. I have a secured gated apartment that also has a dog area so they can socialize and get plenty of exercise if needed. I clean every week and have plenty of space. I will have a specialized area directly for your pet to enjoy them self that is also nearby my room if they have anxiety.
About: Been around dogs majority of my childhood. Had my own for 10+ years, so I know firsthand what it takes to keep a dog happy, healthy, and loved , daily walks, regular feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m patient, observant, and treat every dog like my own. I pay close attention to routines, cues, and comfort, and I’m someone your dog will genuinely enjoy spending time with Blessed to be in a position where I have extra free time at home. I’d love to use it taking care of my favorite animal! I live in a big 1 bedroom apartment with extra loft space upstairs, my complex has a doggy park outside also! I’m open to leaving pads around the house and all that is requested to make your dog comfortable.
“We all know how anxious we can be about leaving our furry friends for daycare. Fear not! Cal & Kelly are absolutely fabulous. Yes, this is the kind of place where tour pup may not want to leave. 11 stars!! (spinal tap)”
About: I’m a retired Army officer and lifelong animal lover. I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life, and I truly believe pets are family. My goal is to give your pet a safe, loving, and stress‑free experience while you’re away. 🐾 What I Offer Personalized care for dogs and cats of all ages. A calm, structured, and affectionate environment. Daily updates, photos, and communication you can count on. Flexible scheduling (advance notice appreciated) but can arrange last minute pet care if available. Complimentary bath for dogs staying 7+ days. 🏡 My Home & Experience I currently live with two rescue dogs I adopted while living in Africa, along with Swiss — my daughter's energetic, one‑eyed rescue cat who visits regularly. They’ve taught me patience, intuition, and how to understand different personalities and needs. My experience comes from decades of hands‑on care rather than formal training. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, comfort level, and quirks so they feel completely at home. ❤️ Why Pets Love Staying With Me I treat every animal like my own — with attention, affection, and respect. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or laid‑back, I’ll make sure they feel safe, understood, and loved. I’d be honored to care for your furry family member. I'm currently retired and my schedule is flexible. Specific pet routines can be added to the care I will provide and ensuring pets can have a mirrored schedule of what they owner provides them daily. I have a fenced yard that has been pet-proof in order to have a safe pet environment. I take time to individually introduce my pets to others, making it a non-stressful experience.
“Crystal is so amazing!!! She is patient, thoughtful and caring. My Junior was well taken care and I felt comfortable with leaving him with Crystal. I’ve already booked my next appointment for Junior and I know there will be many more appointments in the future. Crystal is the best!!!”
“Tiffany has again been amazing with accommodating our ever-changing schedules. Our dog feels totally comfortable with her and gets excited to see her in the mornings. We are definitely lucky to have found someone to take such great care of our girl!”
“Victor cuido muy bien a Ace. El la paso muy bien, ya que el siguiente dia nos llevo donde él, ya que estamos en el mismo vecindario y cuando lo caminamos el otro dia, nos llevo donde Victor. Ya conoce el camino. 😀. Muchas Gracias Victor!”
About: I have 20 years of experience with pups. What sets me apart from other sitters is that in less than 5 minutes of us meeting, I am sure your pup will feel right at home. I work especially well with anxious pups, and am able to train the most stubborn pups. I am currently a stay at home mom, and so I would be able to have all hands on deck full time. There will be no distractions. I make them feel as comfortable as possible by providing toys, ample play space, and most importantly (in the eyes of the fur babies at least) I provide lots of treats! Also if your pup enjoys to be walked I will walk them no less than 3 times a day.

AMAZING experience with Lakshme! She went all out for my dog, Ches, on a cold and rainy Saturday morning at 5:30 AM! Not only did she greet him with treats and pics, but she also shared the big bed upstairs with him. She is always great with Ches and is extremely knowledgeable!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your South Laurel commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
