About: I’ve had a dog in my family for as long as I can remember, from my childhood husky Ginger to our current family pekingese Alley. I absolutely adore dogs and jump at every chance to hang out with any of my friends dogs as well. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, including those with special medical needs. I currently work part time at a restaurant and will be dedicated to your pet’s care every second I am not at work. I would never accept a job that would require me to compromise a pet’s needs and they will always come first in my life. I am committed to following any and all instructions given for dog/cat care. I understand that being in someone else’s home means following their rules and I will respect any spaces I am invited into.
“Ashley consistently follows the care instructions for my large breed pup. ❤️ I know that my pup is safe no matter the weather or outside distractions. We are thankful for the helping hands and extended pup-family.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler pace. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and attention to each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, administering basic medications, and providing extra snuggles for anxious pups. I have had years of experience, with having three labs currently to raising two litters of lab puppies. I have grown up with dogs and love being around them I am in school during the week Monday-Friday. Pet care fits best for me during the evenings or the weekends depending on the week of school. I follow your pet’s routine closely — from feeding schedules and walk times to favorite toys and cuddle spots. I make sure your pet feels secure in their own space, keep their environment tidy, and send regular photo updates so you know they’re happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve had dogs all of my life, since I can remember. I have potty trained puppies and taught them tricks. I have experience with senior dogs and special needs as well. I also used to have a hamster, a rat, and hedgehog. Currently I own one dog and a saltwater fish tank. I have plenty of experience with cats as well. I am comfortable with caring for farm animals to reptiles/amphibians. Just about anything! I’m pretty much a sucker for any animal. They all have my heart. I typically have plenty of time to care for your pet and I’m usually always available. I also have open availability on weekends and holidays as well. My schedule is flexible. I treat all animals as if they are my own. I will do what it takes to make sure that your pet is comfortable and enjoy their time that I care for them:)
About: My love for animals began when I got my first dog at 10 years old.

Over the years, I've gained experience in caring for my own furry family members, along with other friends' and client's!

About: Promo Code for $40 off first time booking for Pet Owners that it is their first time using Rover- AMANDD61392 Friends and Family call me the animal whisperer. I have had a dog/dogs my whole life. I have taken care of dogs from brand new puppies, to babies that were at the end of their life. I'm currently not working full time away from home, so for any boardings that are on week days or weekends, you and your fur babies are good to go. I do have one small dog at home BUT, if you prefer your dogs to be alone while here, my dog is easily brought to his grandparents house:), which they are always happy about. I will update when my work schedule changes. I have a fenced yard (tall privacy wooden fence with sliding deadbolt), and can easily crate dogs if needed. Any animals would have free range of the house and the yard. Your babies are my babies while I am taking care of them.
About: I have been someone that many families have relied on ever since I was around 11 years old. Through these years of experience, I have been able to take care of dogs of all shapes and sizes with all the support they need, such as walks, baths, etc. I am always versatile and understanding when it comes to pet sitting because I want to make sure the dog/owner can trust the pet sitter. Over the past two years, I have gained additional experience in a professional setting as a PetCare Specialist at Perfect Pet Resort. This required me to not only handle and care for multiple dogs or cats throughout the day but also to pass a behavioral dog class beforehand to gain more knowledge. I am currently available any day of the week to be an available pet sitter and am very flexible with what the pet sitter requires for their hours. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs currently. I have created a safe and knowledgeable environment for my pets to make sure they are always comfortable and happy. When it comes to visiting other families homes I will always make sure to know and understand the rules so I can follow them accordingly. With this I will then proceed to make sure the dog is taken care of in the best way possible as their family is away.

About: I have lovingly looked after pets of all kinds my whole life. I will meet your pet exactly where they are-I can chase and play with your dog across the yard, or I can be extra gentle and caring with your senior pet. I'm a student online. I'm very lucky that my girlfriend has a job that pays really well. As a result, I have plenty of availability for pet care! I have a reliable vehicle to get to your home and look after your pet. I can handle great, big, tough pets as well as small, fragile, senior pets. I keep the area tidy for the pets and the owners alike. I'm great with toys and playtime. I am great company for any pet.

About: I treat every animal like my own and have years of experience rescuing, fostering, and placing cats and dogs in loving homes. I’ve worked with ill and high-anxiety pets, providing patient, compassionate care. My passion is helping animals — and their owners — feel safe and supported. I offer flexible pricing to fit your needs and budget, with a military discount available. I am a full time pet sitter. I am available anytime that works with your schedule and the schedule of your pets needs. I do my best to keep your pets on the schedule you have established.

“Andre is an amazing handler. He is patient, understanding and diligent with his connection. He’s always professional, very reliable and timely . Having Corsos I was concerned with his ability to win my fur babies over. Andre is a blessing!”

About: I have been around animals for nearly all of my life, and have made it my life mission to assure the care and comfort of as many of them that come into my path as possible. As a former senior level kennel worker at a doggy daycare, a previous small animal specialist at various retail stores, and with animal shelter volunteer hours under my belt, I am surely qualified and would be elated to take care of your babies when you’re either away or have other priorities to focus on. As of a few months ago, I was working full time at a doggy daycare in Hughesville, where I fed, bathed, walked, and played with clients dogs all day. For over 2 years I was one of our two Senior staff members, meaning that I was also responsible for running the daily staff and assuring the safety and security of the pets at the facility. My additional duties included keeping track of feeding schedules, medication, and potty breaks to ensure the health of the animals as well. I love animals with all of my heart, as it is my life mission to assure each animal that crosses my path gets the maximum amount of care and love that I can give them (even if that’s just a head pat for a baby passing by!!) I currently do not work full time at the moment, as my priorities have shifted toward finishing my college degree at UMD, most of which is online, giving me more than enough time in my schedule to care for animals that I would be responsible for, whether that be feeding, walking, petting, or all of the above! I also am comfortable with house-sitting with the animals, and have had plenty of experience doing so. I typically very early mornings, and am awake until around 11, but that can always be adjusted per need request. Personally, my dog always came to my work with me where he was able to be around me for the majority of the day. When we are home, he is walked before my morning coffee, and every 4 hours after that. I have a pretty decent sized yard, and he loves playing fetch with any ball when we aren’t on walks. My baby only likes to eat at nighttime, so that’s when he is fed, as he is a small boy who would prefer to leave his food alone during the day. Understanding each individual dog, not only what nutrients they require, but how exactly they should eat as well, is very important. When we are not walking on a leash or playing in the yard, he is inside my home where we play with his favorite plushie toys! Come afternoon time, he gets one, out of a selection of delicious treats to assure his happiness and comfort throughout the day. Whatever way that the client prefers, I would assure the same level of happiness and comfort with their dog too!
“Nia popped by to walk our dog while we spent the day in Baltimore. She communicated every step of the way, including a heads up on her estimated time of arrival, a progress report(pee,poop, water break) with photos and she called me to let me know I could close the garage door remotely so that we didn’t leave it open too long. We will definitely be calling Nia again!!”

About: I come from a family of dog lovers and have raised my cairn terrier since she was two months old and she’s now 12!! I’ve worked with big dogs, small dogs, old and young. I currently train my dog in emotional and psychiatric care as she is training to be a service animal. I am currently working a part-time job and do online school so don’t worry about me leaving your pets high and dry!! I have two pets of my own so I know how important attention is. I’m available whenever you need me I live in a dog friendly neighborhood where all the dogs (and dog owners) know each other. I have a large yard and live only a couple minutes away from a park. I can easily crate your pet if necessary and have a super shy dog that won’t bother yours at all. We have plenty of things to keep your pet entertained including a splash pad and plenty of toys
“Taivon responded very quickly to my last minute booking request & was super helpful when It came to walking my dog as I was unable to get out of bed due to sickness. He is very professional when it comes to communication , he’s patient with my Rottweiler and he makes sure my pup gets his energy out by the time he comes back from his walk. I was honestly surprised at how calm my dog was upon meeting him for the first time. If Riley is happy, i’m happy🐶. Will be booking again 👍🏽.”

About: Hello! I am a caregiver who truly has a special place in my heart for all animals. My love for pets, especially cats and dogs, started when I was little growing up in a home where our pets were treated like family. We had several dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, rabbit, goats, ferret & even a sweet pig named Bacon. The responsibility of caring for our pets was such a big part of my childhood and I still cherish the time spent with animals any chance I get. Delighted to provide lots of love, attention, and light grooming. I also send pictures/videos to parents while taking care of their babies. My experience includes giving oral and injection-based medication as well as eye drops, ear drops and topical treatments. I’m also happy to pitch in house tasks, if need be. Your home and pets will be treated with the greatest amount of respect and care. It’s my top priority to provide peace of mind for pet parents while they are away. My service areas are typically majority of Anne Arundel County. I offer pick ups & drop offs for your convenience if requested!

About: I can adapt to a pet’s mood/temperament and do the upmost to remain mindful of all their needs! I grew up helping my dad raise and breed beagles and I have cared for pets over 20 years whether they were my own or owned by family. I joined in 2024 when I lived in Kansas City, MO but ended up having zero time! So now that I’m back in Maryland, I’m ready to assist pets and their owners! 🩷 I am in school full-time so am mostly available on Friday evenings and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. Very occasionally, I can be available for pet care weekday evenings. I do not board pets as one of my cats is very anxious so I will have to go to client’s home to pet sit. Nevertheless, I will triple check that everything is in place and doors are locked prior to leaving a client’s home. For walking, I will triple check that leashes/harnesses are secure and I do not listen to music so I can be 100% aware of my surroundings and the needs of furbabies.

About: I'm a very energetic person so I will always play with the pets and I'm always making sure they are well looked after. I have taken care of plenty of pets aging from young puppies and kittens to older. When taking care of cats I have plenty of toys and things for them to climb on. I have also taken care of pets that have special needs. Like diabetics and other things. I know how to give medications oral and in shot form. Special skills would be probably that I can keep up with any animal and I love all of them. They put a smile on my face. And I love seeing owners with the same smiles. It warms my heart every day. ? I'm usually free most of the day and love cuddles and walking with the pups and kitties. So scheduling will be easy and always available. I have a fenced in yard and a dog and cat that love others. We can play and go for walks. Also tons of activities to do.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 11,062 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Academy Hill. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Academy Hill. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Academy Hill after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Academy Hill. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
