Dog Boarding in Antietam

This was my first time using a pet sitter. I've only taken my high anxiety dog a handful of times to a local boarding facility for 2 or 3 days at a time maximum. So to leave my dog with a stranger for 2 weeks where I'm at a different continent, was nerve-wracking to say the least. Ive met up with a few sitters on here and I can say that from the start Renee was very welcoming, knowledgeable, understanding, and had great communication. She voluntarily mentioned things like having an emergency vet nearby, thinking through other dogs that she'd be looking after at the same time and how all the dogs would fit together. She was asking all the right questions to learn about Trudie's routine and how to have her stay be as comfortable as possible. While I was away on vacation, she would send me daily updates on how Trudie is doing with accompanying pictures. She shared how her eating and potty habits were truthfully (which were all expected given how anxious my dog is and the new situation she's in). I was just hoping that Trudie would not be freaking out the entire time, I would have called that a win. So seeing pictures of Trudie on her back getting belly rubs was just beyond anything I could have hoped for. I truly felt comfortable while being thousands of miles away that my dog is in great hands. I rarely ever write reviews, but Renee truly deserves the recognition.

I may have said it before, but it is so nice not worrying all week about our dog when we are away. Wiley really loves it at Barbara's house. Her communication is great! WILL use her again!

Ashley is the best! I feel confident leaving town knowing that my fur baby is in the best hands. I almost hate to recommend her because I don’t want her to be over booked. Seriously, can’t say enough good things.

This was the perfect situation for my anxious 10 pound rescue. Adrianne and her husband were so patient with Maddie and understanding of her fears. It was the first time leaving her due to her anxiety but knew it would be best. I am truly so fortunate that I found this couple. The yard was perfect and they had a small dog for Maddie to connect with! I highly recommend them to care for your fur baby!

Ellen is great with my pup Kylo. Boarding or daycare I always know he’s having a great time and being looked after by the best. His home away from home

Laura was outstanding! To come to her for the first time, when finding a new sitter for my dog Kenzie, she was super quick, easy-going, and welcoming. She provided plenty of updates and Kenzie loved playing with her dog Gin! Only sad thing was seeing Gin whining when we were leaving, but we will definitely be going back!

Heidi provided wonderful care for Poppy while we were on vacation! Poppy became part of the family while was in their home and seemed to enjoy her stay!

Nat and Ally and boys were amazing with our Roxy. They spoiled her with attention and took great care of her. One of their boys even drew a picture for Roxy to take home. We plan to hang it above her water bowl. Updates and pictures were great, we felt informed and had no need to worry. She was in great hands.

This was our first experience using Rover for boarding. We were apprehensive about our old girl being afraid and miserable in someone else's home. When we arrived at Kelly's address our dog seemed to be relaxed from the start. The other dogs in the home were clean and friendly, and the home had a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Kelly was accommodating and understanding of any "special requests" we had, like how to mix her food (she even warmed it for her) and administer the pills. Our dog actually looked like she was smiling when I left. Upon my arrival for pick-up, all of our dog's things already had been gathered up, her food containers were spotless, and it was just a matter of getting in the car and unpack from my own trip. We definitely will make a reservation with this dog sitter again.

Charlie took great care of our dog, Otis and sent pictures and videos during his stay. Our dog enjoyed having others dogs to run with and came home tired and happy.

Kacy and Justin were very flexible and responsive with us. I wouldn't hesitate to leave Filbert with them again. Our dog was well taken care of, had a yard to run around, and we received daily updates. Ours is an only dog, so having their friendly dogs around was good for helping to socialize him.

Kathryn took great care of our dog while we were on vacation! He is a rescue so he’s a little nervous and needs lots of love and attention. He had a great time! She was very responsive and sent pictures of him having fun with her dogs. I’d highly recommend booking Kathryn to take care of your pup!

Tamara is wonderful with our little dog, Max!! She is very caring and it is clear that she really loves dogs. We’ve had Tamara watch Max a few times, and will not hesitate to book her again!

Gus was in the best of care! He really enjoyed his stay with Melissa, and we were very pleased with the care provided, the pictures, etc. will definitely continue to contact her for future visits!

Jennifer was amazing! I urgently needed last minute dogsitting on a holiday weekend, and not only was she able to help, she was on top of communication, I got pictures of my pup enjoying herself! I picked up a happy and healthy dog, excited to see me after a 4 nights stay, I would def trust Jennifer with your dog

Highly recommend! Marne was easy to communicate with and kept us updated regularly by sending pictures every day. It gave our family great peace of mind knowing Myers was well taken care of! We would certainly use Marne again.

Sarah did a terrific job -- provided boarding for my dog for a few weeks as I recovered from surgery. She sent daily messages and pictures about their activities. It was so reassuring for me to know that Maggie was being cared for in a loving home by a caring family -- SO much better than a kennel (particularly important for dogs that are nervous or suffer from separation anxiety)! Sarah couldn't have done a better job. She both helped Maggie adjust to her temporary home, and provided me with peace of mind during my recovery.

Satsuki stepped up and took over care of Gunner when we needed her most. Sunner settled in and she used her knowledge to calm him down and get him eating when the other sitter couldn't. Gunner returned to us healthy and happy!

Michelle takes very good care of Pepite as if she were her own dog. She is very responsive and flexible. I would have no hesitation in letting her take care of Pepite again. She sent updates and pictures.
