“Carlie was an excellent sitter, and offered us so much peace of mind while we were away. We couldn't have asked for more! We received daily updates, and our dog was so happy in every photo. The care she received was above and beyond, Carlie even helped adjust our dogs collar and gave her a brushing! I highly recommend booking w Carlie, you will feel like your dog is staying with family - 0 worries!”
“Shuling was outstanding with her loving care for our 4 year old Venus. She followed our feeding instructions and provided pictures and/or videos daily. The pics showed how happy Venus had adjusted in her home with her dog Bear and other dogs at times. Shuling could be a photographer because she took the best pics. I am so thankful for the loving care Shuling provided for our pup. This was the longest we left Venus and she was well taken care of. I believe Venus is missing her new friend Bear because when I mention his name she gives a positive response. We will definitely use Shuling in the future. I would highly recommend Shuling for anyone considering a dog sitter. Thanks again Shuling and your family!”
“Couldn't ask for a better sitters - I boarded my pup with Janice and Stalio for three days. They were accommodating with some changes to my schedule and sent photos and feedback while I was away. I look forward to booking them again since I know my dog is happy and cared for well.”
“Debra is an amazing host- she and her family treated our dog as their own, and went the extra mile to make sure he was comfortable and happy. They have a great yard for playing, and provided tons of care and attention. Our dog is older and has medical needs, but they provided lots of updates and I knew he was in good hands! Highly recommend.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Demond is a great pet sitter. He communicated well, and sent lots of great pictures and videos of my furbaby while we were away!!! We will definitely be rebooking with him the next time we go out of town!”
“Michelle was kind and caring, and our Minnie clearly loved her. She was communicative, which was helpful, and Minnie adjusted quickly to the home and routine. Michelle sent many pictures, and we could see that Minnie was super happy in her care.”
“Joann was so nurturing with our dog Maeve. We had a wonderful experience during her stay! Maeve had lots of playtime outside with her dog Obi. We could tell from the updates each day that Maeve was very content. Highly recommend booking with Joann! We will certainly be booking again and again!!”
“Katie was amazing with my dog! She was flexible on drop off and pickup. She also sent many pictures to jeep us updated. She treated her like one of her own pups. My dog did not want to leave!”
“Tanya was so awesome with my dog. He was well taken care of and there was great communication. There was plenty of updates and photos. I know my pup had a great time. I will be using her services again.”
“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!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. James was very thorough and kept us updated with pictures each day. Our Dog was very happy to be with him and she enjoyed her walks. We will certainly use his services again and again and again!! I would highly recommend James! Thank you very much, James. You’re awesome”
“Diana took many photos and our dogs look happy and comfortable in all of them. It had been a little rainy here while we were gone, but our dogs look good! Thank you again”
“You can tell Liz and Jeff are dog lovers and good people generally. Greta had never stayed with them before, and we were very comfortable leaving her with them as soon as we met them. Jeff apparently spent the night on a sofa next to Greta because she seemed unsettled. Above and beyond, and hopefully not necessary next time we have them take care of Greta.”
“Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of my puppy and sent many photos! She made the entire experience of leaving behind your dog much more comfortable!”
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.
