“Casey and Marwa are the most accommodating and caring dog sitters, we have ever had. They do their best to keep with the routines that Indiana knows and then add extra long walks, treats, brushing, playing, and lots of love. Their Pug Kevin is so cute and friendly. On top of that, they are super-flexible with drop off and pick up times and took Indy in on very short notice. Will definitely be back”
“Steph took great care of Jill and kept us in the loop on the great time she was having with her two dogs. Jill was very happy and very tuckered out from a great couple days of playing when we picked her up.”
About: I have taken care of various friends and families cats over the years and have two family cats. I love playing with them and providing a friendly face for them. I have also taken care of friends and families puppies and young dogs as well. I always treat everyone’s animals as if they were my own and strive to make sure they feel safe and loved while they are with me. I’m currently working part time so I have time to watch and attend to your animals any time of day. I am also available for boarding and sittings at houses when needed. I have a fenced yard in a family friendly neighborhood with no other pets in my home. I can crate your dog if needed at my home for boardings and they will have a comfortable space to be in.
“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!!”
“Chrissy is a great choice when looking for someone to care for your pet. She is communicative and keeps you informed with how your pet is doing. She is super kind, friendly, and clearly loves animals. Your pet will NOT be lonely!”
“Took great care of my older dog. And my older dog has issues with food and people but regardless of those issues she still took great care of her and gave good updates.”
“Ruth and family made us worry that our two dogs wouldn't want to leave their vacation. Walks, children, room to play indoors and out, late nights, and lots and lots of affection. We will definitely leave them here again!”
“Emily and Patrick were so great with my dog, Smiley! They were so flexible when plans went awry and the updates were so sweet. It was great seeing Smiley and Biscuit together throughout the stay and I knew my dog was safe and happy.”
“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!”
“Danielle was fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog during his overnight stay. She was attentive and sent me picture updates frequently. I would definitely book her for another stay.”
“Lisa was great with my rescue dog Dolly who can be a bit nervous around new people - she sent me lots of updates with photos and video to help reassure me Dolly was settled which was great! Dolly enjoyed lots of cuddles and was very relaxed when she got home so I know she was looked after very well by Lisa - we will definitely book some more stays before we move to New Jersey!”
“We had to book last minute since for the 4th of July holiday weekend and Shatonia was so accommodating and understanding. She was very professional and responsive when I would check in and she was very understanding when traffic made us later than anticipated for pickup. Our pup seemed to have a good time and we definitely recommend booking with Shatonia!”
“Kim was amazing! Our dog was so well taken care of while we were away that we were able to enjoy our time without any worries. She sent plenty of videos and pictures that my boys looked forward to seeing everyday. Will definitely use her again when needed!”
“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.”
“Erika was friendly adaptable and kind. Our dog had a very nice stay. Erika sent us a few pictures and sent us periodic updates. We were pleased with her service and hope to use her again.”
“Shawnna is my favorite sitter on Rover so far. She was very flexible, sent lots of photos, and was very responsive. My dog who is usually a little slow to get completely comfortable with new people cuddled up to her immediately! I was amazed and knew he was in good hands. I’ve recommended Shawnna to all my family and friends in the area.”
“We have booked with Meagan and Chris multiple times, we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for care for their pup. They are both super friendly and are brilliant at keeping us in the loop with photos and updates throughout each stay.”
“I really had a great experience with Jamella she was professional a she really took time too get a clear understanding about pepper’s routine I will highly recommend”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Timonium
Casey and Marwa took great care of our goldendoodle, Poppy! She was a little nervous at our meet and greet (which is typical for her) but she quickly warmed up. The updates, pictures and videos that they sent twice a day showed us that Poppy was comfortable, happy, and having a blast the whole time. They responded quickly to any questions that I asked and it was clear that she was well taken care of and treated like one of their own. We will definitely ask Casey and Marwa to watch Poppy again in the future!
Katarzyna did a great job looking after my dog. I had to book her last minute and I’m glad I went with her. I got regular updates. She kept an eye on my dog when she became picky with eating and made sure she ate. She really looked after my dog like she was her own. After the meet and greet, I felt reassured that my dog would be safe and looked after with Katarzyna. I would definitely use her as a sitter for my dog again.
Jennifer took wonderful care of our anxious cavapoo for her first ever boarding at age 4. She sent me pictures and updates regularly and Rosie was in great shape when we picked her up. She was very flexible about drop off and pick up times, also. We will definitely be having her board Rosie again in future!
Our family had a fantastic experience with Cayleigh! Setting up everything was a breeze. Communication was always fast, professional and friendly. She was flexible with scheduling, and it was clear she loves dogs. I know my dog Lucy had a great time and was really well cared for because she usually acts like I've abandoned her when she's stayed with other people in the past--nervous and jumping all over me. She was completely chill like she had been on vacation. I highly recommend Cayleigh!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She was very polite and easy to communicate with throughout the stay. I really appreciated the frequent updates, especially the pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was clear my dog was well cared for, and I’d be happy to book with her again.

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 Timonium 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 Timonium.
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.
You and your Timonium 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.
