Thank you for your Service Sebrina, God Bless you.”

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.
“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!”
“They were great! Very responsive and took care of my dog! I had a severe delay in my travel plans and they graciously allowed my dog to stay an extra night which really took a lot of stress off for me. Will absolutely use them again.”
“Monica was a great caretaker for our Levi. She sent multiple photos a day, was very communicative, and even had a report card at the end of each day. Levi got plenty of exercise and got so comfortable there. Would definitely book again!”
“This lovely couple is my fur baby’s preferred boarder. He’s stayed with them now more than 3x and when I use this app, I always rebook with them. They are kind, share updates and have a clean and safe home. My little guy - typically shy - is excited when he stays with them. 5 out 5 stars”
“Lindsay is amazing! I took a trip abroad and left my fur babies in her care while I was away and I couldn't be happier with the service she provided. Lindsay is very responsive and provided pictures and updates without me ever having to ask. I highly recommend her for your boarding needs. I will most definitely be sending my babies back to her for future trips.”
“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 spent quite a bit of time searching for the perfect sitter for our senior Jack Russell Terrier, Bonzi, as he has only ever stayed with family. We met Johnathan and knew he was the one. He is friendly, kind, and caring. Bonzi stayed with him for a week and Johnathan treated him like a member of the family. He also stayed in touch with us sending updates and photos. Bonzi was well looked after and we will not hesitate to use Johnathan again. We are so happy we found him.”
“Yolande kept my Kane from 6/25-6/29/25. She quickly responded to me from beginning to end. She sent me pictures/videos daily and she even dropped him off to me at the end of the visit. My Kane ran back to her when she was leaving to let her say goodbye and pet him. I would absolutely recommend Yolande and will be using her again in the future.”
“I would like to thank Rover and my sitter Latoya for giving my fur baby such a wonderful experience I was very skeptical about using this app for her but I'm glad I did Nola meet her a big sister and I see that she was treated well along with Chosen they got to be friends this Rover app provides great service and also brings pets together like family once again thank you Latoya Kudos 🙌🙌👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 I will definitely be using Rover again for my vacation and any future events when I need a sitter.💙💛❤️💜.”
“Stephanie and Luis did an amazing job dog sitting! Communication was great from start to finish, and they kept me updated with pictures, which really put my mind at ease. They were so welcoming and even created a special space in their home for Coco and Chloe. I’d definitely trust them and rebook again!”
About: I've not professionally trained any pet, but I've trained every pet I've had for life, love, respect as a member of my home. Every pet has to know the boundaries so that we can live in peace and harmony with each other4. Once they learn what is and isn't acceptable, there is mutual love and respect in the house. Since I retired, I'm home most of the day except for appointments or errands. I doggie sat my grand doggie for my son quite often. Starting out, I prefer to care for pets in my home. I live in a Condo. I don't have a yard, but I do have an unfenced in Courtyard right in front of my steps. Before my son's dog, passed away last year, I used to take her to several different parks for walks as well. She also loved long rides. We walked at the National Harbour, Yards Park, Tucker's Park, and the DC Warf. While she was with me, I'd send videos to my son of how she was doing and our activities, especially while he was on travel or vacation.
“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!”
“My Bella had a great time with Tayshawn while my family was out of town! She was always very responsive and sent me pics and video of my fur baby. I will definitely be using Tayshawn again.”
“Reese’s stay was wonderful, we couldn’t have asked for better care. She was definitely treated like part of their family. Communication was excellent. We received frequent updates and pictures, which we loved.”
“Fitz had a wonderful time with Melonie. We found a 2nd home for him and i will truly have a more enjoyable trip knowing Fitz is staying with a wonderful family.”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Westphalia
I’m so blessed to have found Sabrina 🙏🏼 My dog can be skittish around new people and other dogs, but she took to Sabrina right away, which says everything. Sabrina is the sweetest person, and you can tell by the way she interacts with dogs that she really knows them and truly loves them. I’m very particular about who watches my pup, and Sabrina is the only person in the area I trust with her. It means so much to know my dog is in such good hands. I can’t recommend her enough!
Carlton was great! He was professional, punctual, friendly, and took great care of my girl. She’s seven years old, and thanks to Carlton, I just found out she really enjoys watching football! Cool! I felt completely comfortable leaving her with him and will definitely use his services again. Highly recommend!
I recently went on vacation and left my Samoyed in Robert's care. As any Samoyed owner knows, these beautiful dogs come with a lot of fur that requires special attention and regular grooming maintenance. Robert did an excellent job caring for my dog during my time away. He was attentive to the specific needs that come with this breed, particularly the grooming requirements. My dog was happy, healthy, and well-cared for when I returned. I would definitely recommend Robert to other dog owners, especially those with high-maintenance breeds. He's reliable, caring, and clearly understands what it takes to properly care for dogs with special needs.
Anthony was great with my girls. Very patient and understanding with this being the first time my girls go onboarding. Will communicate and respond quickly if I needed an update. I would definitely trust him again to watch my girls and recommend to my friends and family.
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!
Ashley is super amazing. She gave constant updates when watching my dog Scooby and even took him on a pup cup visit which I've never heard of but will definitely start taking him after seeing how much fun he had. I will definitely recommend Ashley to watch your fur baby and if I could would give her more that 5 stars. 10 out of 10 recommend
The week Kevin watch my dogs was the snow storm week. He was very accommodating from the begin to the end, understanding the circumstances due to the pending weather. I was so grateful for his help and support while watching my boys. My boys were taken care of and was so happy to be safe during my travel away/snow storm. Kevin is a blessing.

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 Westphalia 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 Westphalia.
<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 Westphalia 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.
