“Another stay with Carlie and we cannot recommend her enough! We always have such peace of mind with her daily updates and photos and knowing that our pup, Indi, is safe and having fun. Indi gets her own vacation when she stays here and we love knowing that our she gets to enjoy herself, too! Between Carlie's loving and kind family, the huge bonus yard, and Carlie's attention and ability to continue medicine (she even notices any behavioral changes!), we just know we've made the right choice. Do yourself a favor, and get on her schedule for your pup sitting needs! :)”
“Katelyn is amazing and helped our family on short notice when we had to fly to another state for a funeral. She took amazing care of Gary and he was well-loved by her children and her husky, Balto. I highly recommend her!”
“Hester is great. Very good communication. Follows up quickly. Keeps me in the loop during my dogs stay. And I usually get a tired and happy dog after the stay. Very happy I found Hester!”
“Shuling did a great job with Roman. He enjoyed playing in her backyard with her dog and she gave us constant updates on his progress. We recommended Shuling 10/10 and will certainly be using her again!”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our pup in Carla's home! Our dog was so well cared for, and Carla sent daily updates with pictures and videos. Her dog was incredibly sweet and got along great with ours. She did a great job balancing exercise with being mindful of our older dog's past surgeries and individual needs. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“Janice and Stalio were great hosts to our dog Diego. When Diego needed daily medicine after we made the booking they were happy to assist. They were communicative and helpful. They treated our dog like he was their own.”
“Debra and her family were AMAZING! Super patient and understanding with all of my doggies quirks and needs! Holly loved playing with her kids! We will be staying with them again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my girl!”
“Peggy is an awesome sitter. She communicated with me throughout my trip to keep me apprised of my dog’s status and sent pictures daily. These pictures helped me feel confident that all was well. SD”
“Elena is confident, professional, and I felt secure while my dog was under her care. She asked the necessary prescreening questions to ensure it was a good fit- which I appreciated. There were plenty of long walks, beach trips, photo updates, and play time with Elena & family. Would highly recommend and will be looking to rebook in the future. Thank you Elena!”
“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.”
“Janay was amazing!! Our boy really enjoyed cuddling with her and her son! Janay kept us updated with photos of walks and relaxing in the home. She even had his bowls washed and packed when it came time for pick-up. Even though we needed help on such short notice, Janay was very responsive and great to work with. We’ll 100% be booking with her again. 12/10 recommend. 🐾❣️”
“Jasmine was wonderful! She kept both of my dogs over a long weekend and they had so much fun. She sent daily pictures and videos and she was always in contact with me. I will definitely use her again.”
“I don't know if I can sing her praises loud enough, but I'll try :o) Marliez has been watching our sweet boy Racha, every Saturday for over the past 6 months. Our furball absolutely Loves her and her furbabies. She does so many fun things with him, not only several walks a day, but playing in the doggie fields, leash free and even doggie Pool parties, which Racha LOVED. She sends pictures all the time, which warms my heart. RECENTLY, Marliez watched our Racha while we were out of town. She kept him for a week and every day we would get pics. We could see our baby playing, and napping and eating, just loving life. (I was afraid he might not want to come home he was having such a good time ) Marliez is truly wonderful and a special person when it comes to our pets. I Highly Recommend Marliez, you will not find another person that will love your dog like its her own. We All Love her”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! They welcomed our pup for a last-minute weekend stay and gave him such a comfortable, happy place to settle in. Their dog was a wonderful playmate, and the frequent updates and lots of photos made it easy to relax knowing he was having a great time. They were communicative throughout and incredibly accommodating as our schedule kept changing. We’re so grateful for the care and flexibility, and would happily book with them again. Highly recommend!”
“Dana took my pup Dillon for a few overnights when I went out of town recently, and he had the best time! She sent frequent photo updates of his adventures, and it was clear that she cared for him like he was her own. The fenced-in back yard was perfect for this city boy to stretch his legs! 🐾”
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Whitehurst
FANTASTIC!!! We received lots of updates on Ruby's activities, how she was settling into her new space and interacting with everyone. I'm an information Mom so receiving the detailed information Debra shared definitely eased my anxiety of leaving her for a long weekend. Ruby made herself right at home and was happy at pick up. Thankful to have found such a loving and positive soul to watch over our fur baby.
Carol treated our dog as her own. My dog Rosie loved Carol and Carol will be our sitter moving forward. We were able relax on our vacation knowing Rosie had great care. We can't say enough good things about Carol. Take our word for it on how great Carols care was for our little Rosie.
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!!!!
Dana is the best! My dog Shanie had a wonderful week with her. We got lots of great pictures throughout her stay. Dana has a perfect house with a large fenced in yard with shaded areas and is largely flat, so perfect for older dogs like Shanie. In addition to being a great dog sitter, the location of her home is SO convenient for those traveling to the MD and DE beaches... she's close to the bay bridge! Will definitely use Dana next time we travel!

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 Whitehurst 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 Whitehurst.
<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 Whitehurst 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.
