“Words can not even describe how amazing Jill has been when watching our Nella. We came to Ocean City on vacation and quickly realized that Nella was a little stressed with all the people around and we didn’t feel right leaving her alone when we went out. We soon found Jill who put our minds at ease and responded to our request almost instantly. She has been extremely accommodating with our schedule and had truly saved our vacation. We were able to enjoy ourselves knowing Nella was not only having a blast but was in great hands. We were sent photos and videos of Nella through out the day which really makes a difference. At the end of the day, she would send Nella home with little treats and even toys that she knew Nella enjoyed. It is clearly evident that Jill is not only great at what she does but truly has a love for animals. Again, words can not describe how great it has been to work with Jill. The only bad thing I can think of is that Jill won’t be around when we get back home! Thank you Jill for truly being great and taking such good care of Nella.”
“Samantha is absolutely wonderful!!! She watched our dog at her home for an entire day and he was able to play in her nicely fenced yard. He was able to play with her dogs, which he does not get to do as we live in an HOA. I plan on using Samantha in the future when we need someone to care for our dog. I highly recommend her!!!”
“Bella loved her stay and playing with John' pup Maddie. John was awesome! Bella took right to him and he was very attentive to Bella's needs. Bella is older and suffers from kidney disease but that did not deter John. I definitely recommend John and will be using his services in the future.”
“Jenna had to handle my anxious dog on the day of the blue angels (definitely his least favorite next to 4th of July) and she was great with no complaints at all for all his nervous antics. Highly recommend!”
“Margit and Bill are very kind and our dog immediately felt comfortable at their home. They have 3 very sweet dogs and I was worried that our dog would be aggressive or difficult with theirs, but because her dogs were so chill, our dog was actually fine! Would definitely use their services again.”
About: ❗️❗️🙂 CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS🙂❗️❗️ I've been working for Rover since 2017, and I can truly say that I adore this job! I mainly specialize in working with dogs and cats, however I am willing to work with different kinds of animals if needed. I'm also a Washington DC native, who has recently moved to Salisbury, Maryland 💛🖤❤️🤍 ⚠️❗️❗️UPDATE AS OF APRIL 2024❗️❗️⚠️: If you are new client and need someone for a extended stay Home Sitting, the longest I will be willing to stay is 3 to 5 days. Once you are a repeat client, I am then more comfortable staying for longer periods of time if needed. Pets will stay on routine by following whatever schedule the owner has set up. If it means getting up early to take a walk, that's what will happen. If I means getting out later in the afternoon for a walk, tha will be fine too. Pet care fits into my routine by me having a very opened schedule. I just moved to Easton, MD, so right now I'm looking to build a new client base here. While watching your pets in your home, I will always make sure I keep a watchful eye over them. I typically like to stay in an area that is open enough where I can see everything, but closed enough where the animal won't be out of site.

“I am in town trying to relocate and my dog Kona started having anxiety when I left. Since I am staying at my sisters condo I couldn't leave her howling. Irene quickly answered my request and took great care of Kona. She sent me pictures throughout the day of Kona just chilling. I am very happy and will use her again.”

About: I've taken care of a wide variety of animals my whole life. While I love all types of pets, dogs are my favorite. I have lots of experience.

My schedule is very flexible. There is always someone at home 24/7 so your furry friend will never be lonely. I can board, sit, or walk almost anytime.

“Great communication! Clean and appropriate environment. Despite Axe's terrible anxiety, he loved Cory and never fussed one bit. We will definitely be using Cory's daycare again!”
“Extremely calm and knowledgeable. Knew exactly how to introduce our Boston Terrier to her own dogs. Everything went smoothly. Her home was immaculate and organized. She sent pictures frequently. Our dog looked extremely relaxed and happy in her home. She came home exhausted from playing in their large fenced in yard. I felt very safe, leaving our precious pup with Meghan.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Willards
Jill watched our puppy Harvey for a few hours while we were on a family vacation in Selbyville Delaware. Communicating with her was extremely easy and she responded very quickly. We felt very comfortable leaving Harvey at Jill’s house and he had an amazing time while he was there. Jill sent us lots of photos to keep us updated. We highly recommend Jill and will definitely use her again when we are back in the area.
Jill was outstanding with my 6-month puppy! As a new dog owner, I was anxious leaving my baby with someone I didn't know, but Jill was recommended by a friend and exceeded my expectations, sending me photos of my baby girl playing with other dogs and sunbathing in the outdoor yard. I will definitely bring my pup back when I am in town and need doggy daycare.
Jill has been absolutely wonderful with my dog! She truly loves him like her own, which gives me so much peace of mind. Throughout the day, she sends lots of updates and messages, so I always know how he’s doing and can see how happy he is. When he gets home, he’s exhausted from all the fun and attention he’s had. She even sends special treats home, which is such a thoughtful touch. I highly recommend Jill for anyone looking for caring and reliable doggy day care!

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Willards commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
