About: I have been caring for my own pets for 10+ years and could like to get into formal care. I have also pet sat for my friends and family in the past. As of now I am available daily for pet sitting or walking. I don’t mind waking up early. Would prefer not to be out too late alone. I like to hang out with my dog and take him for walks. He’s pretty lazy though so we just sit together a lot of the time. I will follow any instructions you leave.
“Victoria has been excellent to work with and Has great customer service. She goes the extra mile to ensure the provided service is completed. We plan on continuing to utilizing her services.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats with serious medical needs who like to chill out in the AC or Dobermans who can’t stop running, either way all pets are fun! Open schedule, fits in wherever needed. I just need advanced notice of 2 days preferably. I work from home and can sit pets weekend availability is an option. I can meet any care need of your furry animal. My home is an option as a location, if you prefer. I’m willing to drive to most locations.
“Fennel is an outstanding sitter! They always keep me informed about the status of my pet and provide feedback and photos even when it is just for a short walk. They were also extremely helpful and reliable when I booked them for an all day stay. Highly recommend!”
About: I have been providing cat and dog sitting services for the past six years and truly enjoy caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. While living in Michigan, I regularly pet-sat for several families, and now that I’m back in Maryland, I’m excited to connect with pet owners in my local community! I work as a freelance musician and teacher during the school year, which gives me a flexible schedule. With summer break underway, my weekdays are especially open now! My husband and I currently rent a home with a no-pets policy, so pet sitting and dog walking are wonderful ways for me to spend time with the animals I wish I could have around every day. Whether your energetic pup needs a long walk and plenty of exercise, your senior pet needs gentle companionship and extra attention, or your cat simply needs a caring visitor while you're away, I would love to help. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're gone. I work as a teacher and professional musician, so during the summer I am off for break! My weekday schedule is wide open -- I can pop by to take your dog for a walk and/or check in on your furry friend any time of day. I am attending numerous weddings this summer, so my weekends are less available! Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. Because I provide care in your home, I strive to maintain a calm, familiar environment where your pet can feel secure and relaxed. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions, and I am happy to provide regular updates and photos! I understand the trust involved in welcoming someone into your home, and I will always treat both your pets and your space with the utmost respect and care.
“Vatia has been absolutely wonderful to work with. She is consistently communicative, reliable, and responsive, which gives me so much peace of mind when I have to be away from my dogs for an extended period of time. I appreciate her genuine care for my dogs, and I always feel confident knowing my dogs are in good hands with her. I highly recommend Vatia to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable sitter.”
“Stellar communication and super adaptable to my changing plans. I appreciated his focus on safety for my pup by initiating a meet and greet and being contentious of the heat index with my senior dog’s capabilities.”
About: I've take care of dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, and fish for the past 10 years. I have a dog and cat of my own that I care for everyday and have extensive experience caring for others pets when they go out of town or need extra help.

Walking, brushing, playing, feeding, and even bathing. I can follow whatever instructions you have for your pet.
About: I’ve been a lifelong pet owner and have always had a genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for my mother’s and sister’s dogs, as well as my neighbor’s cat, giving me experience with different personalities and care routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important they are to their families. Whether it’s a playful puppy, a senior pet, or a shy cat, I’m committed to providing patient, reliable, and loving care. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide attentive care and accommodate your pet’s routine. I do train mixed martial arts in the evenings, but I have plenty of availability throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your best friend. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their normal routine as closely as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also take pride in keeping their environment clean, respecting your home, and providing regular updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for your pet in the place they know best.
“Joshua was very thoughtful and communicative! We’re looking forward to having him as part of our regular walking team for our pups. The dogs loved him and we appreciate the help and genuine care!”
“Majdoline has been awesome from the moment I reached out! Super responsive, always on time, and my pup loves her. My dog can be a bit quirky, but Majdoline handles him really well. Would highly recommend booking her!”
“Jaylynn was the absolute best - very kind and accommodating. She took very good care of our very active border collie while we were away; making sure he had enough exercise. She was very prompt and responsive. Highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to take great care of your pet!”
“Olu has been walking for us for about 6 months and we couldn’t be happier with her. She’s on time and walks the full time allotted. What I like best about her is she walks according to the dogs pace . If the dog wants to walk fast, then they do. If the dog wants to sniff the whole way, Olu goes slow. My dog is ecstatic to see her everyday!”
About: I have five years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including walking, feeding, and helping pets feel comfortable in new environments. I’ve cared for my own cat and regularly walk my friends’ dogs, so I’m familiar with different personalities and energy levels. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine love for animals—I treat every pet like family and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for.

Whether it’s a morning walk, afternoon playtime, or evening check-in, I make sure every pet feels happy, comfortable, and well-cared for. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, walking routes, and any special needs. I keep environments clean, secure, and calm, always checking gates, leashes, and doors. I take time to build trust so each pet feels safe and relaxed, and I give them plenty of attention, reassurance, and affection.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Annapolis Junction
Malik was an excellent dog walker! He sent pictures when he was out with the dog. He texted me to make sure that he was at my place and when he left my place. What a nice young man and a very decent and generous person! He is very well adept at taking care of dogs. I have seen how he takes care of other dogs in our neighborhood. There is no doubt in my mind if you select Malik to be your dog walker, your dog will be in great hands! I can’t recommend Malik highly enough!
Ryan has been such a huge blessing. We walk our neighbor's dog regularly but since I was traveling for two weeks, we asked our neighbor if we could hire a dog walker for that time. Ryan not only managed a big strong dog but willingly accepted the dog's owner walking with him. She has some medical challenges that make it hard for her to walk her dog but she still wants the exercise. He was always early as well as patient, kind and respectful. We will definitely use him again.
Majdoline was such a precious and amazing dog walker for Gamja. She treated him with so much love and genuine care, and I couldn't be more thankful. I’m so sad that our move means we have to part ways. I know without a doubt that she will succeed and shine in whatever she does. Wishing her nothing but the absolute best!
Cin and Aaron have been so helpful with my dog’s midday walks! From the pictures and updates sent during their visits, in addition to my dog’s temperament when I get home from work, I can tell they’ve been taking good care of my dog and making her happier all around.
I hired Jennifer the day before Thanksgiving, and she was incredibly accommodating. She came for a quick meet-and-greet and walked my dog on Thanksgiving so he wouldn’t be stuck inside too long. She was kind, communicative, and followed all my directions. Teddy loved her, and I feel at ease knowing I have a reliable walker nearby. Highly recommend Jennifer!

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 your Annapolis Junction. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

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 Annapolis Junction. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
