“Top-notch Dog Sitter. Her home is perfect With the front and back yard most importantly, she’s so kind, caring and loving. Rita called me with a question, I appreciate that. I highly recommend Rita.”

“Lillian's home was a perfect set up for Betsy - puppy sleepover! Big backyard to run around in, with a tall fence and a couple of new friends. My kids watched the Betsy videos Lillian sent us over and over through the weekend. The next time we need a place for Betsy to stay, we will definitely first check to see if Lillian is available!”


“Danielle was an excellent sitter for my dog Memphis. She communicated with me daily about his stay and sent me pictures. I could tell that he was comfortable with her and I definitely felt at ease with him being in her care. I would definitely recommend her services and I will be booking with her in the future.”

“Carlton was great! He was very untuned to Georgie’s eating and drinking consumption. He immediately notified me about his concerns. Georgie appeared relaxed and happy at the end of his stay. I will definitely request Carlton’s service again.”


“Alicia was incredible! She gave updates daily on our pup and was very detailed on how their day went. Will be booking with her again. You can definitely relax because your pup will be in great hands in her care.”

About: I’m 100% work-from-home, so your dog is never left alone or unattended. I have a flexible, non-taxing job that allows me to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day—from walks and playtime to cuddles and potty breaks. I’ve raised my own dog from 3 months old to now 2 years old, so I’m experienced with puppy care, routines, socialization, and positive reinforcement. I’m also patient and attentive, which makes me great with senior dogs or dogs that need a calm, loving environment. I truly love dogs and treat every one like my own. I pay close attention to their energy levels, comfort, and routines, and I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I already structure my day around my own dog’s routine, including morning walks, daytime play and enrichment, and evening wind-down time. Adding another dog is seamless, and I make sure each pet gets individual attention based on their needs, energy level, and schedule. Because I’m home all day, I can easily accommodate puppies, senior dogs, and pets that need extra supervision or frequent breaks. When pets stay in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I live in a townhouse with a fully fenced backyard, which is perfect for safe outdoor play and frequent potty breaks and multiple walking trails throughout the neighborhood. Regardless of the location pets are always supervised and never left alone for long periods. I follow each dog’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I also provide plenty of affection, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space and stick to their established routines. I provide reliable walks, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions needed. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and clear communication. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well-cared for, whether they’re in my home or theirs.
“Aaron and Tia will forever be my go to person for pet-sitting. I have a 4 month old French bulldog and he seems to be at home with them and I love how they communicate and send videos and pictures of my fur baby while I'm away. They definitely are educated about pets and what is needed, because they educated me about how to train my puppy. They are very welcoming and family/pet oriented.”

“Marta was amazing!!! I am a firefighter with a crazy schedule but that didn’t phase her one bit. She accommodated my schedule, and loved my puppy like it was her own. I got pictures throughout the day and updates about how she was doing. Couldn’t have asked for better service. Definitely recommend.”
“I loooove Jessica and more importantly, my baby Halo loves her too. I trust her completely to make sure my black lab Halo is in a safe environment when I have to be away from home for extended periods of time. Halo and I both can sense she is truly a great person and true animal lover.”

“Peanut’s stay with Lee was AMAZING! 1. I received daily photos and videos-constant communication. 2. Peanut seemed extremely comfortable in his care. 3. He treated Peanut like he was part of his own family.❤️ It has been such a struggle for me to find a reliable, caring sitter since moving to the area 2 years ago. I wish I would have found Lee sooner. Lol Since we had such a great experience with Lee, I’m definitely going to use him from this point on. In fact, I’ve already booked him for two more stays over the next few weeks! 😃😎 Lee, thank you so much for taking really good care of Peanut. I can tell that he trusts you and I can’t ask for anything more than that in a sitter! We will see you in a couple of weeks for Peanut’s next stay. 🐶 I 💯 percent recommend his services! 🙌🏾”

About: My family always had pets growing up, so there was always pets in the home. When I first got my house, I had two senior dogs, that I loved and cherished I work from home, so easy for me to care for a pet. I also have a fenced yard with lots of shade and very minimal steps I am attentive, make sure they have water . food, and belly rubs. My home is clean, safe and quiet. I hardwood floors, easy access to fenced yard for potty. Very comfortable for dogs
“Kiyanna was so great!!! This was my first time EVER using Rover and allowing anyone to watch my puppy. She was great, she sent pictures, she checked in, and kept me in the loop!”

“Diego, was great caring for our fur babies during our vacation. He communicated with us everyday and provided photos and. videos of our babies enjoying themselves. They appeared to he enjoy him and his roommate. Our babies are spoiled at home and we can tell they received the same attention as if they were home. We really appreciated this. He provided them space both indoors and outdoors for them to run and have as much playtime as the needed. Diego understood their mealtime and gave Apollo extra attention so he would eat as he is normally not a good eater. They Loved hanging out with his puppy CoCo and they all seemed to get a long great. We don’t trust anyone else watching our babies but Diego! Thank you so much for treating our babies like family.”

“Absolutely great sitter for our Milo! She made sure to send us constant updates and pictures throughout his stay. Our baby had a great time. We will be using her again soon!”

“Kim was absolutely phenomenal with our doggo! We got so many great pictures and videos, super prompt responses for pickup and drop off, and overall she is just an awesome person that truly cares about what she does. Definitely will be back 😊”

“Raynell was amazing! She watched my dog last minute and treated him like family. She was flexible, kind, and kept me updated with regular pictures and messages. I really appreciated her care and will definitely use her again!”

“Rubi and Martha are so wonderful with my shy pup Junior! He has some medical needs and needs patience and warmth to loosen up in new situations, but they didn’t miss a beat and he was at home with them in no time. He loves his time with Rubi, Martha (and his new buddy Oddie) and we are lucky to have them.”

Kelly and Maurice were exceptional sitters for Kona. From the moment we dropped him off, they made him feel comfortable and loved. Their updates were reassuring, their home was welcoming, and Kona came back happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. Highly recommend and will use their services again.

Donna was great and extremely communicative while watching my pup for a week! I could tell he was well loved and she made sure he was comfortable. I especially appreciated her thorough conversation before booking to make sure we were a good fit for each other. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.

Extraordinary sitters! 10-star communication, care, and most importantly love to your fur baby! Lee and Taj are the Maryland Dog Whisperers! I cannot say enough about the exceptional service they provide to their customers. I hope to use them over and over. Thank you for being amazing at what you do to care for our babies!

Felicia was absolutely amazing with Brooklyn! She was so sweet, caring, loving, and attentive — it truly felt like Brooklyn was with her owner… me. Leaving your pet while traveling can be stressful, but Felicia gave me complete peace of mind because I knew Brooklyn was being loved and cared for like family. You can tell she genuinely has a heart for animals and creates an environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and adored. If you have a pet with a lot of love to give and receive while you’re away, I highly recommend Felicia. Hands down, she is the best dog sitter around, and I would trust her with Brooklyn again without hesitation!

Aerion took such great care of my dog Scooby, so much so that I think he wanted to stay with her instead of coming back home lol. Aerion is a very active communicator providing you with videos, pictures and messages daily pertaining to your fur baby. I wish I could give her more stars for the wonderful work she has done for me and my family. Having a good sitter really take the constant worry about how your pet is doing so you can concentrate on your work or vacation and Aerion is that sitter. Will definitely be using her again for my next travel trip if she has availability and I urge whomever reading this review do the same.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
