“Shawnna provides doggy daycare to our little Dobby Doodle puppy 2-3 days a week. She is fantastic with Dobby and he adores her! It is difficult leaving our puppy on days that my husband and I are both working, but I feel comfortable knowing he's loved and cared for by Shawnna. She is also very responsive and sends me sweet puppy pics throughout the day! If you're looking for a great doggy sitter, book with Shawnna-- Your pup will be in great hands!”
“Poppy gets excited to get to Crissy's house and enjoys her time with Dublin. Crissy is flexible on timing when I've bumped into conflicts, and adjusting recurring days.”
“Makhayla really saved the day for me and my pup- last minute, she agreed to watch my dog on a Saturday, and later that day when my friend had a crisis and needed my support overnight, Makhayla came to my rescue and agreed to watch Molly overnight, even though that hadn't been our original plan. She was communicative, adaptable, kind, and great with Molly dog. Sent me lots of pictures too. Highly recommend- you can depend on Makhayla!”
About: Growing up, I was always around dogs and developed a strong love for them. I have owned German Shepherds, Labrador Retrievers, and German Shorthaired Pointers. I have always walked, and fed the dogs in the house. I work early mornings and am finished before noon, so I have plenty of time during the day to care for pets. I can provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play and enjoy some fresh air. I also have a friendly German Shorthaired Pointer/Beagle mix named Oreo who loves having other dogs around. We can play catch in the yard, go for walks around the neighborhood, and I’ll make sure each pet is fed, cared for, and given plenty of attention.
“Kassie was absolutely wonderful! She accommodated us on super short notice after a last-minute cancellation and took amazing care of our pup who was in heat. She followed all recommendations & requests we left, and sent frequent updates and photos throughout our time away, which gave us total peace of mind. Her home is perfectly set up for pets, featuring plenty of toys, dishes, and a great fenced-in backyard for exercise. Thank you, Kassie, for making sure Shyloh was so well loved and cared for. We appreciate you so much! 🙏🏽”
“Alisia is fantastic. She is calm, gentle, and experienced with dogs which made us feel comfortable. She’s also communicative and so easy to work with. Thank you!”
“Lexi-Saige took to Jessica immediately. She slept with her and hung-out by her side all day. I'm glad my precious girl felt comfortable and enjoyed her day while I was out of town. Thanks Jessica!”
“Jennifer was fantastic with our 2 dogs (ages 1 and 2) during their full day of daycare. She was so welcoming, and her puppy was friendly and excited to play with our pups. I could tell the dogs were comfortable in Jennifer’s yard and home right away, and she seemed really flexible with hours we needed and special instructions for their care. She also sent me photos and updates throughout the day. I will definitely use Jennifer again for daycare and boarding!”
“We had to come to Baltimore MD at a rush and bring our westie for a serious family emergency. Veronica was excellent and professional from the very start . She accommodated our last minute request and made us feel very comortable with leaving our westie with her on a whim . Highly recommend !”
“WOW! We emailed Shannon at the last moment because we were passing through Baltimore (on our way up to Canada) and needed a place for our dog to go for a few hours while we checked out the Aquarium. Shannon was incredibly kind and helpful, and even took our dog on a long walk through the woods to make sure he was good and tired for our long car ride that afternoon. When we pass back through, she is our first call!”
“Rome was so excited to see Ms. Kimberly! When your pup almost beats you to the door, you know he’s in good hands. Kimberly takes such great care of our fur baby. He truly enjoys his visits.”
“This was my first time using Danielle, I was truly impressed, from the first picture she sent me I could see that my fur baby was in love from the way he was looking at her with his paw on her arm, that put my mind at ease. Danielle was a ten out of ten and I will definitely be using her again. ❤️”
“Kyasia was amazing! She sent updates with pics and was very accommodating with our drop off and pickup times. Our pup seemed much less anxious than when she stays with the sitter we normally use. Thank you, Ky!”
About: What sets me apart from other care takers is the level of care and attention I give every animal. I take the time to understand their personality and routine and I prioritize inclusion. I love to keep them active and mentally stimulated especially the ones that are ready to rock and roll! I am always available to give updates and even FaceTime so the owners have peace of mind. I would expect that from anyone taking care of my fur baby as well. I am naturally a very active person and being able to play, walk and care for animals is something I genuinely enjoy doing, so pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I provide attentive, compassionate, and reliable care for pets in my home.I respect each pet owner’s instruction's, including feeding schedules, fresh water, exercise, playtime, medication (if needed), and maintaining a clean environment. I make pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them attention, monitoring their behavior, and respecting their routines.
About: I’ve always had a love for animals and hands-on experience caring for them. I’ve helped care for pets for years by providing walks, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable working with energetic puppies, helping reinforce routines and basic commands, as well as senior pets who need a slower pace, medication support, and extra comfort. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, and attentive, making sure every pet feels safe and happy in my care. I’m available Thursday through Saturday, both day and night so you can have fun in the weekend. I’m able to provide walks, drop-ins, overnight care, and extended attention during these days, including weekends. This allows me to be fully present, flexible, and attentive to each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in my home, I always follow the pet’s normal routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they’re fed on time, have fresh water, get regular walks, I also live next to a park or playtime, and receive plenty of attention and affection. I’m attentive to instructions such as medication schedules, training routines, and any special needs. I also keep the space clean and secure, provide updates to owners, and treat every home and pet with respect—just as I would my own.

Nora was very communicative and attentive with Brooklyn and kept us up to date with pics throughout the time. She help to ease my anxiety while my little one was away from us. Thank you Nora and anytime we come to Maryland we will definitely be reaching out to you to baby sit our little Brooklyn
Lindsay was absolutely amazing! She took care of my dog as if she were her own and gave her so much love, attention, and care. Lindsay kept me updated throughout the day with photos and videos, which I really appreciated, and she was always quick to respond to my messages. It was clear that Lindsay genuinely cared about my dog's happiness and well-being. Knowing my dog was with someone who was so attentive and thoughtful gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely book with Lindsay again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter. My dog had a wonderful time with her, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience!
Jeanne was a perfect choice for me to leave my two Havanese with. They have never been separated from each other or away from both of us (me and husband) at the same time. She sent several pictures and I know they were well cared for and had a very nice fenced back yard to play in with her dog. Thank you to Jeanne, and her husband!
Tehya was super attentive to Major, sent multiple photos even during a short visit, and is genuinely so delightful! She was super flexible with timing and ensured her roommate and I were connected ahead of time for a smooth drop-off and pickup. I'll gladly turn to Tehya again in the future for caring for my old boy and would recommend her to anyone!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Timonium is $28 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $49 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 Timonium 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.

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 .
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.
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 .
