“Antavia was so great! Penny really had a good time and was well taken care of. I’m always nervous when I have to leave her but Antavia put my mind at ease. I would definitely book with her again!”

About: My love of dogs began when my mom got a puppy when I was in sixth grade. Now I am a dog mom. I've been the proud mom of a Boston Terrier/Frenchie mix for the past 4 years. I've raised her since she was 3 months old, through potty training, puppy training and intermediate training. I'd love to care for your fur baby too. I'm at home during the day and available to drop in/ walk your fur baby. I am available in the mornings and in the afternoon. I have an unfenced end unit townhouse. There is grass on the side of my house and plenty of unfenced grass in my townhome community. I work from home almost every day of the week so I will have time to take care of your baby during the weekday. I'm able to get out and walk dogs on the weekends. I have an unfenced yard and a fenced play area in front of my house. I have a friendly fur baby who likes to play and thinks she's the leader of the pack.
“Marla did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Caramel. She sent photos and videos, which really gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend Marla and would absolutely trust her again in the future!”


“We’re so grateful for Danielle! She took amazing care of our dogs, Skye and Java, while we were away. She stayed in regular communication, sent plenty of updates and photos, and gave us such peace of mind. It was clear our babies were comfortable and well-loved. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring pet sitter!”

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.
“This was my first time using Rover. Lee & Taz were absolutely amazing. I received photos and videos of my furbaby, Blue almost daily. Blue enjoyed their pets as well. I highly recommend them. It was a great experience and I wil be a returning client!”

“Andre Was Great!! I Highly Recommend Him and will definitely use him again! I was worried about my little Guy because of his food diet, but Andre made sure he was comfortable and took great care of my little buddy! His communication was excellent!”


“My dog Deuce had his first stay with Shawonika and she took excellent care of him. She checked in every day, sent tons of photos, and made me feel completely at ease. I’ll definitely book with her again.”

“From the moment we met Kimberly our dog Hercules was a fan. He walked right up to her and was so excited and happy to be there. She sent us videos and pictures daily while we were away and Hercules always looked so happy and excited to be there. Kimberly made it easy for us to confidently leave him in her care. We'll definitely book Kimberly again.”

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
“Spudsy once again had a wonderful stay with Mark and his family. He was so well taken care of, and had so much fun playing outside all day. He came home exhausted, which I know means he had a great time. Mark was once again a great and consistent communicator, and was flexible about pickup time which was very helpful for me coming home from the airport late. And the photos and videos were beautiful! So appreciate of Mark and his family for making Spud feel like part of the family when he's there!”

“Anthony was a great guy to board my dog with. I had a last request for a rover and he was available. Communication between us was smooth and Liz my dog seem to like it.”

“Diego treated Duchess like she was his and I love that! He sends updates to reassure you that all is well and he provides pictures! I will definitely use his services again and recommend him!”


“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.”

“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.”

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Estela and her family! From the very beginning, their communication was outstanding—they provided daily updates and photos, and followed every instruction with great care and attention to detail. This was our first time leaving our youngest behind, and we felt completely at ease knowing our fur babies were in such loving hands. It was clear when we picked them up that both Gianni and Valentino were happy, relaxed, and well cared for. Their behavior spoke volumes about how comfortable they were during their stay. We even ended up extending our trip, and Estela was incredibly accommodating. We’re so grateful for the exceptional care and will definitely be using their services again in the near future.”

“Marta was fantastic with our 6-month-old Basset Hound, Charlie!! It was my first time ever leaving a pet with anyone and she made it so easy. I received multiple updates each day with pictures, videos and text. It was great to see him with his new friends having such a good time! When I picked Charlie up, five days later, I told her that I never worried about him the entire trip. We missed him, but knew that he was in good hands! I highly recommend Marta and will definitely take Charlie back when needed! Thank you Marta for everything!”

“The overall experience of April’s dog sitting service was outstanding, her compassion extended to Cairo and her patience with my travels was greatly appreciated. She went above and beyond with accommodations - even replaced his harness that broke while I was away. I would refer others and hope to reconnect with April for future dog sitting services.”

“Jessica took great care of our pup Bailey! Bailey had the time of her life playing with balls and going for a hike. We got great pictures every morning. Jessica is really thoughtful in making sure the pups integrate well together. We will definitely have Bailey sit with her again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Upper Marlboro
Our Gracie Jewel had the pleasure of staying with Kelly and Maurice for a week. This was my initial experience with Rover and in-home boarding. Gracie can be quite shy around unfamiliar individuals, but our initial meeting with Kelly and Maurice alleviated some of my concerns, and Gracie appeared comfortable. While traveling, Kelly thoughtfully sent several pictures and provided us with regular updates. My husband and I often chuckled, seeing that Gracie was clearly well-cared for, truly a home away from home. I wholeheartedly recommend their services and anticipate rebooking in the future. Thanks Aunt Kelly, Uncle Maurice & Kids it was truly a family affair.

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.

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.
