Her son was also very sweet and gentle with Nami, which was lovely to see. I would definitely book with Becca again!”
“Lorna was great with my fur baby. He is a puppy, so he is still a little hyper, but that did not bother her at all. She sent me updates and pictures and in the pictures, he was doing the same things he does at home so, I know he felt welcomed at her home.”
“Remunalila was absolutely amazing with our dog Boston. We booked with her from March 27th to March 30th and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Communication was easy and consistent the entire time. She kept us updated with pictures and videos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Boston was being treated like family. He looked comfortable, happy, and well cared for the whole time. When we met her in person, she was very kind and welcoming, and we also met her husband Will, who was just as great and very sweet with Boston. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. We also really appreciated how flexible and accommodating she was. When we needed to book again, she was open and made the process easy for us. Overall, just really great people and an even better experience. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their dog.”
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my entire life and absolutely love them. I’m very good with animals and I’m so excited to meet and care for any pet that comes my way 🐾 I have a very flexible schedule and can definitely work with you so we can find a time that works! I also understand that things come up and am willing to work around that. I live in a very calm and relaxing environment and it has plenty of windows so they can look outside and bird watch! I also have plenty of hiding places with blankets and scratching posts incase your pet prefers a hiding spot or somewhere dark. I have a lot of extra treats, food, and toys too.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wellington
Elizabeth was wonderful with our pups Penny and Reggie, and she was great with communicating to us how their days went and how they were settling in, etc. She also sent tons of pictures and you can tell from the pictures that the puppers were having the times of their little lives! We’ll definitely be repeat visitors!!
Liz and Jeffrey were AMAZING! I cannot say enough wonderful things about them and the way they took care of our fur baby! He was treated like a prince: treats, car rides, time for zoomies, play dates with other dogs and sleeping on the sofa. I was worried he would not want to come home with us after the 3.5 days he was with them. We received videos, pictures and updates every single day. I trusted them and felt like I could relax on my vacation and not worry about the dog. They were so kind and hospitable to our family for drop off and pick up as well. They are wonderful humans who take magnificent care of canines!
Brinda and her husband were excellent with Gabby. Gabby is a senior with a heart ❤️ condition and I had no worries at all. Gabby received her medication. She had lots of love. I received so many great pictures of Gabby enjoying herself. I was afraid she may not want to come home!!! I am definitely going to rebook with Brinda
Kathryn was awesome! She took such good care of our dog, Bear. She sent pictures and it reassured us while we were away! Drop off and pick up was convenient and easy. Bear felt right at home quickly because of Kathryn’s ease and attention. I would definitely book Kathryn to watch our dog again!
We had a wonderful experience with Megan! She took amazing care of our girls, Chloe and Nina, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. She sent us lots of pictures and videos throughout their stay, which we absolutely loved and really appreciated. ❤️ It was so reassuring to see that they were happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. Megan was caring, attentive, communicative, and very accommodating with their routines and needs. We could tell she genuinely cared about them and treated them like her own. We would absolutely trust Megan with Chloe and Nina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful and reliable sitter. Thank you so much, Megan! 🐾❤️
Wish I could give Amy 10 stars!! She cared for Luna like we were family, including family pics and updates and being so truly sincerely kind and caring. I can’t possibly imagine a more ideal caretaker for your beloved pet. So thankful for Amy - and her own cute pup who was a wonderful playmate to my own pup!

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 Wellington home-away-from-home, 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 Wellington.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Wellington 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 , 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 .
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.
