“Another wonderful stay with Sarah! She was welcoming of our pup Suly, and I could tell he arrived home very content after a few days with you. Thank you so much, we'll be booking again with you :)”
“Gingers stay with Adva and her family was great! We received pictures frequently and they were flexible about changing pick up and drop off times. Their yard was perfect and I know ginger felt right at home with them. Would highly recommend this house for your pet and definitely hope to have ginger stay with them again in the future! ”
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors dogs since i was 11. My first job was a dog walker/sitter but i just liked being able to play with pets. Overtime that evolved into me taking care of my friends’ pets (cats, dogs, birds, fish, plants…) when they went out of town. I set and stick to schedules so they get the timely care and attention they need. I also send texts/facetime/pictures updates to pet owners I work from home full time with minimal meetings so i can take lots of breaks to drop-in, house sit, play, walk and feed. There are currently no time restrictions on my end so your pet can have the attention they need! If boarding in my home, i have toys and a pet area. There are no hazardous materials (hard corners, noises, cleaning products) or food laying around. I also have an open floor plan so they wouldn’t be cramped and bored.
“My dog has appeared to enjoy being with Jiao, and I got a picture or video of my dog everyday. Jiao was timely with her communication and flexible with drop off/ pick up. I would use Jiao to dog-sit again.”
“Khadija took great care of my dog. She kept me up to date with messages and pictures as well while my dog was in her care. I will definitely book with her again. I highly recommend booking with Khadija.”
“Ming and the CARE Family took such great (boarding) care of Custo for 4 nights and 5 days! Ming and team provided us daily pictures of Custo's adventures with his furry friends and we were happy to see that he was enjoying himself and had a blast! Ming was also very accommodating as we had drop off and pickup logistics problems. They were so helpful in working around schedule. We will continue to use Ming and CARE Family's services for Custo and he's excited to go back this week for daycare!!! Thanks again CARE Family...Custo LOVES you!!!!”
“Alex and Daniel were absolutely incredible dog sitters. They were communicative, sending frequent photos and updates, and took extremely thoughtful and loving care of my dog, Pip. They really went above and beyond, brushing him, taking him on lots of walks, and clearly provided him with a warm, kind, and comfy home. We are so grateful to them for taking such good care of Pip, and can’t wait to book with them again for our next trip.”
“I have a great feeling of peace, knowing that my Marcel is being cared for by Elisabeth. She is attentive, loving and gives great care to our dog Marcel. Marcel was right at home with Elisabeth and did not want to leave. It’s important to me that Marcel not be stressed or anxious and she provides that type of calm atmosphere needed. I needed a later time to pick him up and Elizabeth accommodated me and told me not to rush or worry. Marcel was very happy with his long walks! I want to keep her all to myself. She is truly a wonderful person and can be trusted with the care of your special pet.”
“Titus had a wonderful time with Maria and Fernando. He literally never wants to leave when it's time for me to pick him up. He has so much fun with his friends. I am super grateful for their great care.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Thomasena is absolutely amazing, and her daughter Robin is just as wonderful. They took such loving care of our fur baby while we were away, and it truly felt like he was part of their family. When we picked him up, he was so relaxed and happy—it was clear he had been in great hands. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was being cared for with so much affection. Definitely will book Thomasena every time we go away. Highly, highly recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Wheaton
Derek and his wife provided excellent care for my elderly pitbull while I traveled abroad. They provided regular communication and photos and really showed love and concern for my pup. He had incontinence issues and they swiftly informed me, kept me apprised of any potential medical issues, purchased doggie diapers (which I reimbursed) and handed all of it professionally and with the utmost care. I was relieved that I did not have to worry about my dog while I was so far away and I knew he was in good, experienced hands.
This was Snickers' second stay with Calvin & Vanessa and once again, they took great care of him! We were given multiple updates on how Snickers was doing and they even sent us photos to show us that Snickers was having a good time boarding at their home. We would highly recommend Calvin & Vanessa to anyone looking to board their fur baby!
Galen is our regular sitter when we can’t take our pup along, it gives us great peace of mind knowing our dog is well loved and cared for when we’re away. The latest visit lasted 2 full weeks, we got regular updates and cute pics the whole time. Our dog had an ear infection pop up a few days ahead of the stay and Galen was really flexible in agreeing to give Juniper the necessary ear medications. Galen is easy to communicate with and is flexible. We really appreciate her and our dog loves staying with her and her pup Ginger.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
94% of Wheaton sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Wheaton landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Wheaton 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 Wheaton.
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 Wheaton 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.
