“Michelle was awesome and so sweet! She sent pictures of Murphy and was very understanding when we got caught in traffic and picked him up later than we thought. Overall I would definitely use Michelle again and I think Murphy agrees!!”
“Hester was absolutely wonderful! Sent us updates on our boy while we were out of the country and shared about all the fun he was having. Would definitely rebook and recommend!!”
“Kimberly and her family were fantastic. My dog seemed super happy during her stay. I received a photo and note every night. I will definitely be booking with them in the future.”
“Benjamin is an excellent dog sitter! We could really tell he cared about our dog Chewy. He has a lovely home in a nice quiet neighborhood with plenty of outdoors space for our dogs. Chewy looked really happy during his stay and didn’t give us any attitude after his pickup.”
“Kendall and her family helped me in a bind and proved to be reliable, friendly and incredibly welcoming to my dog, Shoto. I’d highly recommend her for anyone who needs pet sitting, and I’d definitely book her again.”
“I can’t say enough good things about Debra. She was AMAZING. Communicated with me often throughout her stay, sent pictures and loved my baby like I would. I was nervous to leave her with someone else for the first time but Debra made me feel comfortable. Thanks so much Debra!!”
“Andy was really great with Sherlock. I appreciated his methods to introduce Sherlock to the other dogs recognizing dogs have different personalities and needs. Andy provided daily photos and updates on how things were going which put my mind at ease. I could see Sherlock was being well taken care of and was having a good time. Andy clearly loves dogs and I would have him watch my dog again and recommend him to others.”
“Ciarra was amazing!! She did so great with my baby not sure if my pup wanted to come back home with me ? she constantly updated me with everything and I could tell she treated my dog like it was her own. Highly recommend and would go back if I need to go on vacation again!”
“Marliez was absolutely amazing! She was attentive and kind. My fur baby was happy to stay with her and was very well taken care of; she stayed in a home away from home. Marliez sent me pictures every day and made sure to give me an update on my baby’s activities and mood. Would definitely recommend Marliez to anyone wanting their baby to stay in a loving home while they are away. Loved working with Marliez and will be booking with her in the future.”
“Kathleen was amazing!! Ziggy had such a wonderful time. She loves to go on hikes, and Kathleen took her on a little adventure at the nearby park. She sent a bunch of photo updates and communicated very well. When I picked up Ziggy, it was clear that she felt right at home with Kathleen and was so happy to have spent the weekend there. I cannot recommend Kathleen enough, and will definitely have her watch Ziggy again in the future!”
“Beth was awesome with Bailey! Bailey is an older gal, and gets a bit stressed with change but Beth was very patient with her and Bailey settled down nicely during her stay. The video of Bailey wagging her tail and playing around proved such. Thank you, Beth, for taking such good care of her!”
About: Does your pet need special attention? Strong pup who needs a confident handler? Leery feline with trust issues? I got you. My own dog is a “foster fail” who was considered a “yellow” dog who was very untrusting of people. Now he is a lazy lapdog with no cares in the world. Lots of work to get there but I’d love to help anyone else who struggles to ring “the right” sitter for their stubborn pet. I have volunteered at the local spca to walk all the dogs (with pitties having that special place in my heart). Looking to build a new work/life balance focused on taking care of animals so I am free most days and times of the day. Weekends, daytimes and evenings welcome. Each animal is different. Some pets need time to warm up so I approach animals with respect in their own homes and take the time to gain their trust. I tend to get down on the animals level and let them approach me.
“Mady was great, very nice and you can tell she has a genuine love of dogs. Mady has a pair of friendly dogs that played well with mine. She sent pictures daily and kept us updated on how our dog was doing. Highly recommend and will use her services again in the future.”
“I am sooooo happy that I found Ashley! She's amazing with Gracie and I am fully at ease while traveling knowing that she is being well taken care of. She keeps me updated daily and I so appreciate that she does it without me having to ask. Ashley is now my go-to sitter!!”

Our 8 1/2 year old dog just stayed with Candice. He is very attached to me and does not like to get away from my side! Candice took great care of him and he did very well in her care. Candice sent frequent photos - which reassured me how well he was doing. Highly recommend!!
I was nervous about leaving my new pup, Alfie, but from the moment I met her, I knew he was in wonderful hands. She was absolutely amazing and cared for him as if he were one of her own. She is such a sweet, genuine, and caring person, and you can truly see those qualities in the way she loves and cares for dogs. She genuinely loves them, and it shows! You can see how happy, pampered, and well cared for her own dog, Halo, is. Alfie and Halo became besties, and it honestly felt like Alfie went on a little vacation of his own! 🐾❤️ I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely trust her with Alfie again. Highly recommend!!!!
This was Tibs’ second time staying with Keerin and her family and he had a great if not better time than the first! Keerin has such a happy home and our boy got tons of love from her, her family, and their dog, Boomer. They sent plenty of happy picture updates. They treat Tibs like family and he loves staying with them! I would recommend them to anyone.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
94% of sitters in Whispering Woods can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Whispering Woods 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 Whispering Woods.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Whispering Woods. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Whispering Woods 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
