“Sadie did really well staying with Jacob and Megan – with getting older, she has some anxiety when she’s not at home and can be a little 'stubborn'. They were very accommodating and I appreciated the extra effort. I would definitely use them again to watch Sadie!”
“Outstanding dog sitter! My dog had a blast and Pamela C. was wonderful about documenting it through photos and sharing. Excellent communication and clearly a wonderful dog person. Highly recommend!”
“i can not even begin to express how wonderful Theresa is. I love to go places, but I always hated leaving my dog (or dogs when I had more than one). Theresa IMMEDIATELY made me feel at ease, as well as my dog. I actually had to google to find a word that could convey how great she was, and I found "cynophile" which is a dog lover, but she is more than that. She not only understands what the dog needs, but also what us pet parents need. She eased my worries, she sent me pictures, she assured me that what I was feeling was normal. I know that I not only had a good time, but my dog enjoyed her vacation as well. You will definitely will make it so much easier to say yes when I am asked if I can get away Thank you Theresa!”
“Nicole was an amazing host! She took loving care of our dog and sent frequent updates & photos. We will definitely trust her with our dog again if the need arises.”
“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.”
“Molly was so easy to work with and she took such good care of our dog, Walter. I was very nervous about leaving him with someone new for the first time but she made the whole experience much better than I expected. We will absolutely book with Molly again for future boarding!”
“Thomas and his sons took great care of Tucker while I was away. He responded quickly every time I reached out and Tucker seemed right at home when I picked him up at the end of his stay!”
About: Hello, I’ve been boarding dogs for awhile now and I use to have a dog myself for over a year. I don’t work with very large dogs and I think I’ve boarded enough dogs to get enough experience. I’m home full time and can walk/feed/take your dog to potty at any time. I’m open to long boardings and short time sittings, and all walks and drop ins. Plenty of time to play with your pet. I make sure there’s nothing on the floor or in the dog’s reach that can harm them and if there’s a crate, will usually put them there if I’m not going to be around.
“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.”
“First time boarding my puppy and had to book last minute. Briana & Isaiah responded quickly and made the experience easy and stress free. I could tell quickly that was Benny in great hands! When I picked him up he had the best send off, they truly care. Will definitely book again.”
“I am again very pleased with the care Shiloh gets during her stay with Melanie (and her family). Photos and communication is great and allows me to enjoy my time away. If I need a sitter for puppy camp again I will definitely be rebooking with Melanie”
“We could not be happier with our pup’s stay with Jennifer! Jennifer was wonderful at keeping us up to date with pictures and messages throughout her stay. Our puppy, Izzy, is anxious with new people and seemed to really take to Jennifer, Buster, and her family within a short amount of time. Izzy was exhausted when she got home so she clearly enjoyed all of the fun and attention she received! I highly reccomend Jennifer and we will definitely be using her again!”
“Never boarded a pet before, but I left my Xander there and they treated him wonderfully! He even got a cat tree to play on, which I don’t even have! Highly recommend!”
“Demetrius watched our dog Taz and quickly became one of his favorite people!!! We got updates throughout the day about how well they were doing together. It usually takes Taz a long time to warm up to people, leading us to consider Demetrius a dog whisperer!!! We are so grateful for him and look forward to bringing Taz back to stay with him and Sebastian again in the future! Highly recommend!”
“Couldn’t recommend her more! She was incredibly kind, loving, communicative, and truly treated my dogs like they were her own. I felt completely at ease knowing they were so well cared for, and they had the absolute best time playing with her two sweet pups. When I came to pick them up, I’m pretty sure they would have happily stayed forever—which is probably the best review they could give! So grateful to have found someone I can trust with them and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better Sitter for Habibi while I was doing business nearby. Emma is a true professional who deeply cares for dogs. She also has a gorgeous big yard that just screams out for having a dog running around in it. Not a big fan of business piece, but I look forward to the next opportunity to have Habibi stay with Emma.”
“Randi and her family were amazing with our dog and treated him like their own. She was responsive and sent regular pictures and updates. We will definitely use her services 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 Upper Falls 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 Upper Falls.
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 Upper Falls 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.
