“Both of our dogs were definitely sad to leave Megan and Vince. They provided such great care, were super communicative and sent so many pictures. We will definitely reach back out when we are in need to care for our dogs. I found such comfort during our trip knowing our dogs were in GREAT hands!”
“Lynn "Beauty" took amazing care of Bosco. He came home happy and exhausted. She has two very nice dogs who Bosco enjoyed playing with. It was wonderful to be on vacation knowing that our beloved dog was being taken such good care of. Lynn sent many photos everyday and we delighted in viewing them every evening with our family. He didn't want to come home at the end of his stay! We highly recommend as your next dog sitter! ”
“Whitney took great care of our boy Hokie! He got along great with their dog Alfred who is a sweet gentle dog. I received pictures and updates while we were gone. We will definitely use her again.”
“I highly recommend Angelene! This was my first time using Rover, she put my mind at ease and let me know Blue was in good hands. Angelene sent pictures of Blue which helped , especially because we were out of state, even being miles away I knew he was doing well. Angelene was flexible with scheduling and very understanding when I had to change the pick up date and time. I truly appreciate her services and extremely happy we now have a trusted caregiver for our boy Blue!”
“My dog Barkley was so well cared for by Megan & Jacob! I could tell he felt comfortable right from the start, and I appreciated their great communication before and during Barkley’s time with them.”
“Deanna is such a great dog sitter! She and her lovely family took such great care of Romee. Romee had walks, plenty of playtime—just a perfect situation. Knowing Deanna was taking care of Romee allowed me to truly relax and not worry a bit while I was out of town. I’ll be rebooking with Deanna! Absolutely recommend.”
“If I could pack them up and move them with me to new house I would. Jenn and her husband were great very flexible were happy to add two more days of care when our plans changed. Jenn sent pictures everyday with updates. Tahoe was also clean and brushed when I picked him up and a happy pup.if I was still in area would definately use again”
“This was the first time I had a sitter watch my dog for an overnight stay. I was nervous but after communicating with Melanie and during the meet and greet I was put at ease. While Shiloh was staying with Melanie and her family I was completely comfortable. Melanie provided daily updates via txt, pictures, and videos and was extremely responsive to my questions/comments. I will definitely use Melanie again and highly recommend her.”
“I'm a first time dog mom and get very nervous every time I'm going to leave my dog at someone's house,but Rodney made me feel very comfortable. we got to meet him before our trip and him and his wife were very nice. He was very nice and gave me a quick response to my messages, he even send me nice pictures of my baby everyday. I'll 100% recommend him.”
“This family is super nice and welcoming. Jill was very attentive. She noticed things about my pup's behavior that I forgot to mention. She was very responsive to communication and sent the cutest photos. Cinnamon seemed very happy when I picked her up. I will definitely use this family in the future.”
“Casey and Marwa were so great! After a thorough and thoughtful meet and greet, they watched my Lulu for the night while we moved. It was a great first experience leaving my pup with someone not family. They always make sure someone is home with the pups and sent lots of updates. Kevin was a total gentleman and Lulu was thrilled that he shared his favorite spots with her. Lulu can’t wait to go back in a few weeks and I can travel easy knowing she’s being taken such good care of!”
“I’m so glad we found Patrick and Bahiya on Rover to take care of our dog. My Loki can be a little “extra” but everything worked out so great and it was wonderful to be able to enjoy our vacation and know he was so taken care of. I can’t thank you enough for the daily updates seeing him so well taken care of.”
“Lucky had a great time with Max and Thomas. He enjoyed playing in the backyard and all the pets. Thank you and I'll definitely rebook again. I appreciate the prompt replies to my texts.”
“Tarina is absolutely fantastic! My pup always comes home exhausted from a well spent time away playing with friends and getting lots of snuggles and love. Not only is she amazing with my baby but she’s incredibly flexible and understanding. Twice my husband and I have had to ask her for last minute changes to our booking and she was super kind and accommodating, seeing to our every need. Highly recommend Tarina to anyone in her area, she is the best!”
“Thank you so much for taking such phenomenal care of Snoopy! You completely put our minds at ease from the start. The daily photo updates were great and put our minds at ease. It was clear that he was in good hands. Snoopy came home happy and relaxed and we will definitely be booking again!”

We truly appreciate the attention, updates, and the warm environment she provides. Thank you again for taking such great care of our babies. We’re so grateful!”
“Danielle, her family and her two dogs were the best of hosts!!! Danielle works from home so she was always there to take care Juney and all of her food needs, walking needs and taking her out back to her fenced yard to play and get all the energy out. She also kept us updated every day with how she was doing and also with great pics to show the fun she was having or just relaxing. We couldn’t be happier. Danielle is awesome! I look forward to using her again for Juneau!!!”

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 Willwood 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 Willwood.
<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 Willwood 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.
