“Ryan is absolutely amazing! Ryan came over for a meet and greet before our first scheduled visit to get to know our dog and answer all of our questions. Ryan put me at ease knowing that Napoleon will be well cared for.”
“Wow! Sarah has been walking Wrango since Feb. 2018. She is quick to point out anything she notices that could be a potential problem. She noticed last week he had diarrhea, which I then monitored and called our vet. He had an intestinal infection which could have been serious. Sarah saved Wrango. It doesn’t get better than that!!”
“Courtney was absolutely amazing. She sent plenty of photos along with thoughtful, detailed updates, and my cat clearly adored her. I’m so grateful for her — especially for being so flexible on such short notice. I would book her again in a heartbeat, 1000%!”
About: All my life, I’ve owned and cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, and hamsters, so I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, personalities, energy levels and routines. I have experience in handling reactive dogs of all sizes as well as couch potatos. You can count on me to follow any specific feeding routines and dietary needs, as well as administering medications. Pups, kitties, bunnies, and everything in between are welcome! I'm currently working a flexible part-time schedule which gives me plenty of time to walk your reactive pup, play with your crazy cats, or sit (and crochet) while keeping your pets company! Most pets don't want strangers in their space! I pay close attention to body language, and let them set the pace so each visit feels as safe and comfortable as possible. When staying in your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, waste cleanup, playtime, medications, and as many walks as requested. I keep your home secure, never invite guests over, follow household instructions, and always clean up after myself.
About: Hi, I’m Hannah! I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and can’t remember a time when I didn’t have a furry companion by my side. Since my teenage years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family, and I still love helping out whenever I can. I also foster dogs, so I’m experienced with pups of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. Your dog will be in caring, capable hands with me! I am currently working remotely, so I am free most of the day to care for your dog and be there as a friend and make sure they are not left alone. I have a fenced in backyard that your pup can run around in. I also have two sweet and loving dogs of my own that will keep your pup company! If coming to your house, I will respect your space, and let you tell me how to manage your pet and home.
“Margriet is fabulous. She is always punctual, reliable, and responsible, which gives me great peace of mind when I’m away. Most importantly, I can tell that she really cares about my dog and treats her with kindness and affection. I feel very blessed knowing my dog is safely in her care. Highly recommend!”
“Hahahaa your review made me laugh. Chino is my sweet baby boy. He’s not really a baby anymore, more like a mischievous teenager haha! I’m happy you caught him! Thank you for that! And thank you soooo much for helping with Daisy on such short notice. I’m sure you made her night.”
About: As someone who loves to travel, I know the importance of having trusted and communicative pet care. I have had two cats for 12 years and was lucky enough to become a dog mom when my husband I met 4 years ago. I have experience with walking and caring for our friends pets as well. I have a hybrid work schedule, so my availability is flexible for you and your fur baby’s needs. I can do early mornings, lunchtime, evenings, and overnights. We have a fenced in backyard that our dog enjoys and a covered porch that our cats enjoy. We can accommodate any animal and separate all the animals if feeding time is an issue.
“Leticia did a great job taking care of my cat Madison. Madison is a loner and doesn't warm up to people but he trusted Leticia from the start. I loved the photos and videos that she forwarded to me. It gave me peace of mind to know that he was well cared for. I hope that Leticia will be available the next time I need to be away from home for an extended period of time.”
“Liza first visit with Tater Tot was amazing! Her pictures and updates were great and left me feeling really good that my baby was in such great hands!!! I’m sure Tater Tot is going to look forward to spending more time with Liza!”
About: I can’t provide you references in history of taking care of animals. What I can tell you is that I have two beautiful grown children. We have rescued animals over the last 24 years, and love them dearly as though they are part of the family. We truly love animals with our full heart, and go that extra distance to attend to their needs, and provide the love they deserve. I will provide the same love, care, and joy to your babies as I have done to ours for so many years. I am an empty nester and want to provide my love to where it’s needed and wanted. I work from home and can set own schedule. I am available seven days a week. I will stand behind my commitment to you. Responsibility is my priority. I will love and care for your pets as if they’re my own, and I will follow the rules we’ve established. I have a Pet Sitter Notes page that we can complete together, or I can send to you before my visit that will address some of these questions/ideas. Please give me a chance. I won't let you or your pet down!
About: I get a lot of pleasure assisting busy professionals with their pet sitting needs. I provide a nurturing and loving environment for your special pets in a very tranquil setting. Your pets will be treated as if they were my own. My husband and I will treat your pet with the utmost care and attention. References available upon request.
About: As a dedicated dog walker and in-home pet sitter with over two years of experience, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. I care for every dog (and cat!) as if they were my own — with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs and routines. What You Can Expect: ✅ Safe, fun, and tailored walks ✅ Home visits that follow your pet’s schedule ✅ Clean water, food, meds (if needed), and lots of affection ✅ Daily photo updates and messages so you never have to wonder how things are going ✅ Respect for your home and your pet’s space I’m trained in basic pet first aid and always check collars, leashes, and gates before heading out. Whether it’s a quiet walk or an energy-burning play session, your pet's safety and happiness are always my top priority. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet! I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help make your time away stress-free for both of you. 🐶🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because of how flexible and rewarding it is. Since I set my own schedule, I can book pet care clients around my part-time job shifts and study blocks, which helps me stay balanced and productive. Walking dogs gives me a much-needed mental reset from screen time and studying, and it keeps me active throughout the day. It’s also a great way to supplement my income without taking on another traditional job. Most of all, spending time with animals brings me a lot of joy and motivation — it breaks up long study days and reminds me why I love what I do Whether you’re at work or away for a few days, I provide reliable, in-home care that keeps your pets safe, happy, and stress-free in their familiar environment. From daily walks to feeding, playtime, and medication routines, I tailor every visit to your pet’s unique needs. 🔐 Safety & Professionalism Equipped for pet first aid always carrying a kit Detailed home-entry and security protocols Leash and harness checks before every walk Weather-conscious and always alert to potential hazards Respectful of your home, your pets, and your time 📸 Peace of Mind After each visit, you’ll receive a photo and short update so you know how your furry friend is doing — because trust is built on communication
About: Adopted 2 Newfoundlands over 20 years, groomed so much fur I could knit a sweater! I understand what Dogs need! Making canines happy until you get home. Availability all week as I am currently not working and would love to walk your dog and make sure they have water and food during the day Experienced in socializing and training pups. I can help keep the manners in check for your pet, whether walking or sitting or staying. Treats are encouraged
About: I have been pet sitting since I was a freshman in highschool for members in my community. I have always loved pets and used to knock on my neighbors’ doors in elementary school offering to walk their dogs (and cats lol). I’ve taken care of pets of all sizes, ages, and breeds, and even multiple pets at once. I love to take long walks in general and would love to have a pup come with me! For house calls, I’m happy to spend some quality time with your pet and play with them. I am currently a highschool senior who starts school at 8am and is done by around 2:30pm. I am happy to wake up early to take care of a pet’s needs in the morning and am usually available after school to do so in the afternoon as well. I occasionally work from 3-6 after school or for a couple hours on weekends but will communicate with a pet’s owner if that comes up. I will be sure to pay close attention to your pet when taking them on a walk, feeding them, playing, or letting them outside to make sure they are safe.
“Carolyn did an amazing job looking after our cat Chance for the past week. She is very reliable and we always received great pictures and updates for every visit. Will definitely work with her again.”
About: I’m a mature woman with professional and life experience. I’ll treat your pets and home with great integrity, thoughtfulness and care. As a former pet mom of 20 years, I can promise your beloved will be in trusted and experienced hands! I love walking and I love dogs- your pup will enjoy his or her time with me! Big or small doesn’t matter- just looking for friendly, loving pups! Also a total cat lover and can’t wait to give yours some pets and cuddles! I am confident in doggy commands and very tidy in another’s home and spaces. I look forward to caring for your pet as if they were my own- making their time away from you as fun and engaging as it can be- so you’ll return home to a happy and well-cared-for 🐶 or 🐱 ! I have a small clothing line and do freelance work. I love dogs and the park so thought I’d try offering my service here again! (Haven’t since 2019!) I have tons of experience with dogs and cats and they tend to really trust me. I am always overly cautious with allowing dogs to interact while on a walk just to keep everyone 🐾 safe! ❤️

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Annapolis
Thomas was EXCELLENT with Sheena!! He is very attentive and conscientious in his care. Communication is superb and timely, and he was consistent with the times of his visits. Our old girl did well with Thomas in charge. We will be contacting you again when we need care for Sheena. Thank you!
Margriet is fabulous. She is always punctual, reliable, and responsible, which gives me great peace of mind when I’m away. Most importantly, I can tell that she really cares about my dog and treats her with kindness and affection. I feel very blessed knowing my dog is safely in her care. Highly recommend!
Megan was absolutely amazing with Oreo! She was incredibly kind, reliable, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving Oreo in her care. She kept us updated throughout the stay and sent plenty of pictures, which we really appreciated. Oreo looked happy, relaxed, and right at home with her. It was clear that Megan genuinely cared about her and treated her like one of her own. We would absolutely book with Megan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
Halsey was amazing! She took great care of our big, but sweet dog, Camden and provided lots of pictures and details of all their walks. She was very communicative and I knew our boy was in great care with her! We would love to have Halsey come back and care for Cam!
Jacqueline is kind, reliable and professional. She also communicates well and is very patient. She took detailed notes on my dogs’ specific needs and quirks, which helped me to feel very confident that they would be in good hands. She took the time to send photos and notes after her visits. I was so surprised by how quickly my rescue dogs got comfortable around her! I feel that anyone would be lucky to have her help with their fur-babies :) We look forward to her helping us out again!
This is our second time working with Shelby, both times we needed last-minute assistance and she stepped in happily. She took great care of our dogs, gave them their medicine, let them frolic in the yard, and even brought in our packages and kindly turned off our oil diffuser that we had left on in a rush so we didn’t have to come back. We cannot recommend her enough, especially if you are looking for a sitter who is patient with skittish/anxious dogs.
Leilani was amazing with my dog Cade. He’s almost 12 and he’s picky about who he likes and he loves her! She worked with how anxious he can be at first and sent wonderful updates and pictures! She took the best care of him. She gave me such peace of mind while I was away and is super sweet! I hope to rebook with her again soon!
Sarah did an amazing job with Oreo during the 30-minute visit. She was punctual, attentive, and made sure Oreo was well taken care of the entire time. I really appreciated the updates and photos as it gave me peace of mind while I was away. Oreo seemed happy and comfortable, which says a lot. I’d definitely book with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Annapolis stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Annapolis 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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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.
To find sitters in Annapolis with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Annapolis. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
