“The dogs were well taken care of and so happy in all the updates! I will definitely be rebooking if/when we need a dog sitter. Sarah is very responsive, communicative, and was great with the dogs.”
“Jennifer was absolutely fantastic with our Great Pyrenees, Yuki! From the start, it was clear she is patient, attentive, and genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She made sure our puppy got plenty of exercise with regular walks and spent time playing, which we really appreciated given the size and energy of our dog. We also loved the consistent updates and photos she shared throughout the stay—it gave us real peace of mind knowing our dog was happy and well cared for. You can tell she goes above and beyond to make sure both the pet and owner feel comfortable. Highly recommend Jennifer and will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Suzie! I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies and energetic younger dogs to sweet seniors. I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual personality, routine, energy level, and needs. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment with plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and rest. I’m a full-time stay-at-home mom to a wonderful 2.5-year-old toddler and a friendly standard-size labradoodle, so pets are naturally a big part of my daily life. Being home most of the day allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and care for your pet. Our home is filled with activity, play, and love—perfect for pets who enjoy company and a family setting. I work pet care into my daily routine by: • Frequent Potty Breaks & Playtime: Since I’m home, I can let dogs out often and provide outdoor time in my spacious (unfenced) backyard with close supervision. • Walks: I enjoy taking my dog on walks, and I’m happy to bring your pup along for fresh air and exercise. • Indoor Play & Enrichment: Toys, games, and interactive activities are part of our daily routine, keeping pets entertained and engaged. • Naptime & Relaxation: There’s also plenty of quiet time for rest and cuddles—especially during my toddler’s nap time. • Flexible Schedule: My flexible routine allows me to adapt to your pet’s specific needs, whether that means extra outdoor time, medication, or simply extra love and attention. Pets become part of our little family while they’re here, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for throughout their stay! Pet Care Approach: Caring for pets is my passion, and their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home , I strive to create a loving, attentive, and stress-free environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. In My Home: I live in a single-family house with a spacious backyard (not fenced), offering plenty of space for supervised outdoor play and exercise. Since the yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is closely monitored to ensure your pet’s safety. Leash walks are also available for added security. Indoors, pets will have a cozy and clean environment where they can relax and feel at home.

About: 3+ years of dog sitting plus 4 years volunteering at the Humane Society — experience with every breed and age, from tiny pups to gentle giants.

Big, small, shy, or silly — I love them all! I’ll make sure your dog feels loved, safe, and spoiled while you’re away. By day I teach kids, by night I spoil pets!

About: I've had dogs my whole life and have taken care of countless pups of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I love animals and I would love to love your animal too! I am currently working part-time remote before starting school in January. I am available any time of day to take care of your pet needs. I am a very organized, meticulous person who will complete the needs for your dog. I am able to administer medication and I follow directions carefully. Very proficient in walking, picking up poops, and lots of snuggles. Most importantly, your dogs' safety is my top priority.
“Kim saved our kitty (and us) in a pinch when the cat needed some extra attention (wound care) just as we had a flight coming up! Our kitty obviously adored her. She also went out of her way to spoil our girl with treats and play and brushing and snuggling. Above that, she also kept an eye on our house for us —even stopped an ant invasion!”
“Emily is so good with Bob, my 5-month old puppy. And I’m so happy that she and Bob had been able to develop a good relationship for when I need help with potty/play breaks during the day.”
About: I used to work for a pet care company called Pet and Home Care. I was a traveling pet care agent for them and I am trained to take care of all kinds of pets. I even took classes through them on what to do if a pet has a medical emergency. I grew up around animals and have a deep love for them and I’m excited to work with your pets :) I’m currently a part time student at FCC and I’m looking for extra work. I have time everyday for visits. I have open availability all day Sunday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday I give fresh water and treats every visit (if treats are allowed). Plenty of pets and attention. I can administer medication and follow special dietary plans. I have a leash belt I use when walking dogs that keeps the dog hooked to me for extra control and ensures they can’t pull the leash out of my hand.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and cats and currently have Berlioz, my 6-year-old tabby, and Chibi, my 6-month-old Husky. I love giving pets the time, attention, patience, and affection they deserve. As a nurse, being responsible and attentive comes naturally to me, and I’d love to give your furry family member the same loving care I give my own! 🐶🐱❤️ I'm currently working as a full-time nurse, but I only work 3 days a week which gives me plenty of time in the rest of the week to take care of your furry pets! We live in a single family home with an unfenced backyard but in a quiet neighborhood. There's plenty of lawn space and a 10x10 ft dog pen in our backyard.
“Kayla is a fantastic cat sitter. My cat doesn’t warm to people quickly, but Astrid made friends with Kayla on the first day. I lt was such a relief to know that my cat was so being well cared for while I was gone.”
About: Throughout my life I have always had either a cat or dog as pets and have always enjoyed taking care of them. As a dog owner myself, I have a deep appreciation and respect for all breeds which allows me to really bond with them. My patient manner allows them to become comfortable with me very quickly and really provides for a better experience for both myself and the pet being looked after. I have taken care of many different types of breeds and sizes which allows me the knowledge of taking great care of them so you have the peace of mind that your baby is well loved and cared for while away. From puppies to seniors, I am able to handle them all. I am also not shy to dietary restrictions and specific instructions you may have. Hi, I'm Hannah I'm a Frederick local and lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to care for your pets like they're my own. A little about me: · Proud Frederick local — I know and love this community. · Pet parent to a Boxer-Border Collie mix, so I'm no stranger to energy, smarts, and big personalities · Animal lover through and through — I've never met a pet I didn't adore. Why book with me: · Trustworthy — you can count on me to be reliable and honest · Responsible — I take your pet's routine, safety, and happiness seriously · Friendly — I'll make sure you and your pet both feel comfortable and cared for · Respectful — of your home, your pet's needs, and your instructions My promise: Your animals will be treated like my own — with love, patience, and plenty of attention. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay, your pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine, so your pets get consistent, reliable attention. I'm up early every morning — no sleeping in around here. My own dog is usually the reason, and I wouldn't have it any other way. That early start means morning walks, feedings, and drop-in visits are easy for me to work into my day. I'm currently in between jobs and heading back to school, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of open time during the day. Pet care is a great fit for this season of my life — it works around my classes, and it gives me something I genuinely enjoy doing with my time. I'm married, and together we share our home with our own dog — a Boxer-Border Collie mix. We're also hoping to add another dog to the family soon, so I understand the excitement and the responsibility that comes with a full house of animals. Whether it's an early morning walk, a midday check-in, or an evening visit, I have the time, the flexibility, and the heart for it. Your pets will get the same care, attention, and routine I give my own. I have a fenced in backyard, walking trails, and plenty of space in my home to host your furry friends. Security system is also active and I am home throughout the day.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Akers Acres
Connie is always excellent. She did two visits to my cats this time. She provided a detailed description of what she did while visiting them each day and sent best pictures! I am so glad I found Connie on Rover! She has been a huge help to us when we travel!!!!
Xiaoyi was absolutely amazing with my dog Bella. At first, I was skeptical about this service as I am very picky about who I like to work with Bella. That being said I would absolutely book Xiaoyi without any hesitation or reservation. If you like someone who is very attentive communicative and very caring, please look no further. While I was away on my trip, she kept me informed with pictures and text messages on my dogs experience. I look forward to working with her in the future! 10 out of 10 experience!!!
Erika is amazing! She was very quick to respond to my short notice request and took incredible care of my cat, Mia. She brought treats and played with Mia every day of her booking. She did so well that Mia was absolutely in a great mood (and health) when I returned from my trip. A big feat with a 14 year old cat! Thank you!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Akers Acres is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $8 and $23 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 3,807 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Akers Acres. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Akers Acres. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 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.
sitters 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 sitter.
