About: I have taken care of not only my own pets for almost my entire life, but also I have helped friends and family with their fur-babie(s)! I even taught my dog her lefts and rights. She’s a smart little pup. 🐶 As of today, (8/11/25), I have a pretty open schedule and I will adjust my schedule on here, promptly, if my schedule changes! Feel free to ask any questions, I’m also willing to do some same day pet care, if needed! I plan to make sure during my time with any pet that they are taken care of in a safe, proper, and caring manner, whilst also following any specific instructions of my clients needs for their fur-babie(s) & their homes.
“Kaila was amazing and we will definitely contact her again when we need someone attentive to watch over our fur babies. She has integrity, great communication, and understands it’s the small details that matter. Thanks Kaila!”
About: I have loved and vare for dogs since I was a child! Now, I have built a reliable reputation throughout Frederick and the surrounding DC area by taking care of countless dogs. Golden-doodles, Basset hounds, Newfoundlands, mixed breeds, you name it! My experience and care shows through my happy clients (and their owners)! I have experience with dogs who need specialized care, medications, and have behavioral concerns. Since I usually dogsit off of Rover, I have included a few photos of my frequent clients! I am a full-time graduate student in Washington, D.C., so my availability will depend on my commute. My schedule will fit best with a dog who is okay being alone for a few hours while I attend class in the afternoons. I can easily re-crate dogs if need be. I always write a note or text message explaining what times your dog went out, played, etc. I have worked with very anxious dogs who need time to warm up to new people. With those cases, I know how to take my time and assess the dog's behavior to understand how to make them the most comfortable.
About: I've always helped take care of the animals in the household since I was little. My family used to breed our dogs so I have experience with raising puppies from birth to when they leave for their forever homes. I have looked after other family members pets as well. I am a college student so I can work around my class schedule to spend as much time needed with you beloved pets and make sure they are taken care of! Making sure your pets are comfortable and that their daily routines stay continued is very important. Trusting me with your lovely pets is a great accomplishment for me and very exciting.
About: Hi, I’m Giovanni. I'm a dependable beginner dog walker and pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. While I'm just getting started professionally, I am responsible, patient, and committed to giving every pet the care, attention, and kindness they deserve. I’m currently working a full time job so my availability is anytime before 4pm from Tuesday to Saturday. My availability for Sunday-Monday is anytime, open availability. I would like to have a conversation with the specific client to see what their needs and comfort level. Every client is different so understanding my client is best to meet their expectations.
About: I love all animals, I am very patient with dogs and treat them like they were my own. I am a very active person, so I love going on long walks or runs, or playing with animals! I have a dog of my own so he gets spoiled often and I would love to have the opportunity to take care of your dog as well! I work two part time jobs right now, so I have a lot of free time and wiggle room through the earlier times of the day and later as well to play with puppies and take care of your animals like they were my own! I stay in an apartment on the second floor, I have a balcony and I have a dog of my own who can give your pup some company , he is very playful because he is still young and gets along with everyone and everything! I have a yard around the building I live in and I take my dog to walk out there , or across the street in the fields next to a school I live near where I throw the ball with my pup! I can also crate your pet if necessary or needed by your instructions!
“Kaylie did a great job dropping in for my cats Panda and Sakura. She sent amazing messages and photos and the cats were happy and well taken care of. I would use her again for future care.”
“Colleen did an excellent job dropping in on our dog while we were away for the weekend. The text updates on how our dog was doing and what she did during the visits was much appreciated! Colleen is a true dog lover!”
About: I am a former teacher going back to school for a career change, so I have a lot more availability to care for your pet! I have plenty of experience watching dogs in many different areas, and I’ve been so lucky to meet so many dogs/people along the way. I am flexible on the time and am available to do weekends. I am on summer break so will be available for most of the day. I have a lot of experience crating, feeding, taking dogs out, and potty training. I make sure they do not chew on unwanted things and stay off furniture.
About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs- all sizes and ages. I helped my father train dogs for his business. I also have a service dog at home who is trained and got certified. I have my own cat baby who I’ve had since we were both young. I currently do work part time as a customer experience associate but my hours are very set normally and can be flexible with proper notice. Before being left alone with your pets I would like to do an in home visit to meet everyone and go over routines and where everything goes.
“John-Michael was great! We were a last minute booking and he communicated with me right away. He spent time with our old tabby cat and took great care of her! Will definitely book again!”
About: I am a huuuugee animal fan. I love fur-babies of all sizes and temperaments. I can accommodate almost any sort of schedule and type of boarding; I am pretty flexible. I do everything possible with my baby girl, Rue - a golden doodle of my own whose biggest flaw is that she wants to be everyone's friend, including the cats she grew up with (so I’m sure she'll get along with your pup or cat just great). I have spent some time working in a vet hospital and in a wildlife rescue as well as personal sitting gigs for friends and family - you can trust my care with your pup! I have a condo that can accommodate dogs of all sizes AND everything is doggy-proof. My complex has a very large grassy courtyard and a lake trail less than half a mile away. I am a fairly active individual and will have no problem getting your pup out and playing outdoors or long trail adventures if that’s what they need! I currently work from home and the schedule is flexible - so I am available throughout the day. For visits/walks only, I can accommodate she what your pup needs depending on the drive to get there. 7 days a week In previous pet care jobs, I’ve usually stayed overnight with the pups. I can spend time with them, enriching them with play time or training. I have never had a cause for a health or safety concern in the 6 years I have pet sit and I plan on keeping that intact. My experience in a vet office gives me the knowledge or medication administration if needed, what a true emergency may look like, and how to triage an emergency if one should arise.
“Kelly took great care of my two cats (drop in visits) while I was gone for a week. She followed the care instructions that I left and sent me pictures every day. I will use her again and recommend her to orhers.”
“She did an amazing job! Loved all the love and attention I for the animals that I could easily see come through in the photos. I’ll definitely use her next time I need to travel!”

On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Adamstown choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

sitters on Rover set their own , 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 sitter.
