“Lorraine is extraordinarily kind, attentive, and gentle! Our Azure was treated like a Cannie Goddess! We received daily photograph and activity report. We felt calm, and at ease knowing Lorraine was in our home, there for our little girl. I highly recommend Lorraine. Azure adores her!”
“Tara did a great job house and dog sitting with our senior chihuahua Dudley. She sent pictures and updated us during the day and always responded to messages promptly. We will definitely have Tara house/dog sit for us again.”
“Jessica truly is a 10/10! She is reliable, communicative, responsible, and she showered my dogs and cats with endless love during her stay. Jessica sent me updates and photos each day! It was extremely comforting to know that my fur babies were in good hands while I was away! She also kept everything very clean for the animals and made my house extra tidy for my return (even took out the garbage she used, which was not necessary …but it highlights the attention to detail and care she has). I will be using her for future bookings and would happily refer her to my friends and family! I highly recommend!”
“Alysia is very kind and caring. She took wonderful care of our senior lab, Bailey. There are many details surrounding Bailey’s care and Alysia handled her feeding, supplements and daily/nightly routines thoughtfully. We hope to have Alysia stay with Bailey again.”
“Audrey was an absolutely perfect fit for us! She is reliable and trustworthy. Audrey kept us informed each day with pictures and videos of our animals & property. Audrey went above and beyond while caring for our home and farm. She made us feel very at ease while away from home.”
About: Hey everyone! My name is Kelsey and I live in Stuart, I have been dog sitting for the past 4 years now with Rover. I've had dogs since I was a kid, sat for others and fostered for a few weeks as well. I have experience with all age ranges of dogs, including giving medications to senior dogs, and dogs that need a little extra care. Looking forward to gaining regular or one time clients! I work part-time at a golf course, shifts are typically 6-8 hours and out early. I work 3-4 shifts a week, aside from that I'll be home with your pet or available for morning/evening drop ins! I do prefer to meet the dog and owner prior to first drop in or walk just to get a better feel for what the dog will require.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 18+ years of experience owning pets and caring for pets for family, friends, and others. I understand how much our pets mean to us; they’re family, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in loving, responsible hands while you’re away. As a mom of five, I’m naturally attentive, dependable, patient, and used to caring for others and managing different needs and personalities. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, medication reminders, feeding on a specific schedule, or simply some company while you’re gone, I’ll give them the individual attention they deserve. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is for your pet to feel loved, comfortable, and at home, not like they’re simply being boarded or checked on. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I would want someone to give mine. 🐾❤️ As a stay-at-home mom with a very flexible schedule, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have the flexibility to accommodate walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, playtime, and other petcare needs throughout the day. I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine rather than trying to fit them into a rigid schedule. My flexible availability allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, and care while their families are away. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. As a mom of both furry and humans, I’m very attentive to my surroundings and understand the importance of keeping animals in a secure, supervised environment. In my home, I provide a clean, comfortable space with plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow their pet’s normal routine and care instructions closely. I’m careful about doors, gates, leashes, food, medications, and anything else that could pose a risk. I’ll also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for.
About: I grew up on a farm. I've worked with animals all my life as part of my family and experiences through FFA. I walk my own dog and help neighbors with their loved ones in our neighborhood. I currently work part time so I have availability to help those who have less time. I feel this is a great way to lift my own spirits, stay active and help others/animals. I have a dog and 2 cats. I go on nightly walks with my fur baby and all the neighbors with their dogs. It's great social time for us and the doggos.
“Janine did a great job of caring for Lily and she spoiled her with many walks to her favorite park! She communicated well with me and my house wa in great shape when I came home.”
“Our dog Kelsey has a new best buddy. Tracy did a wonderful job with our high energy German Shorthaired Pointer. Fortunately, Tracy has just about as much energy as Kelsey. We'll definitely use her again and recommend her highly.”
About: 20+ years of pet care experience. Growing up we had 4 dogs , 6 cats and a whole array of other critters. When it comes to pet sitting, drop by visits or just a quick walk, I’m your guy! I have a full time job that I work Tuesday-Friday 8-6. Im currently available Mondays, Friday evenings, Saturdays & Sundays. Holidays vary since I may be out of town I have two cats myself so ensuring a safe, clean environment is number 1 on my list. If there’s no mess or hazard, I’d ensure all essentials are either available or given at time specified. For example feeding and or medication time, along with kibble/ water restock. If there’s a list, follow the list lol
About: I have cared for and owned of all sorts of animals from dogs, cats, snakes, and guinepigs! I love all types of creatures and have helped many friends and family members pet-sit in the past. My schedule is mostly wide open. Early mornings are the only times that are difficult for me. I do not mind working some weekends as needed. I have a fenced in yard and two mini aussies at home. They are sisters from the same litter and they will be 11 in May. We have had them since they were puppies and they love to keep me busy with their colorful personalities.
“This was Rebecca's second time taking care of my pup while I was out of town. I've tried a few sitters for Lulu over the years and Rebecca is by far the best!! Lulu LOVES Rebecca and I can truly feel at ease while I'm traveling knowing that she's at my home taking care of Lulu! She's a great photographer and communicator, plus my house was neat and clean when I returned!”
About: I have 11 years of experience caring for dogs and have grown up with three dogs of my own. I have helped during two dog births and am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages. I can bathe dogs, clean their eyes, trim the hair around their eyes when needed, and make sure they are clean and comfortable. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and giving them lots of love and attention. I always treat every dog like they are part of my own family. (Mandy Experience with small dogs) I have plenty of availability during the week, especially in the mornings and early afternoons. This allows me to give your dog my full attention, whether it’s for walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I’m reliable, flexible, and happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I have a small fenced yard where dogs can safely spend time outside. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a calm, loving environment. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and will treat your dog as if they were one of my own. I pay close attention to every dog’s individual needs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
“Heidi was amazing with Loki! I was anxious about leaving him, but she made me feel so comfortable and safe. She was communicative, on time, responsible, and most importantly, Loki immediately loved her. She sent me updates while I was gone and I knew 100% he was in great hands! I will definitely use her in the future. I would recommend her without a doubt.”
About: My name is Angels. I'm a reliable, responsible and caring pet sitter. I'm a full time Middle School paraprofessional, taking care of pets is my second favorite thing to do. I love animals. I've volunteered for many nonprofit organizations that rescue dogs. I was trained by the humane society to walk, to train and to care for dogs. I will love your dogs and care for them as if they were my own dogs. I will make sure to take pictures and to keep them safe while they are under my care. I am looking forward to working with you and your pet(s) . Have a wonderful and blessed rest of your day! Stay safe and sound! Thank you for your consideration!! Best Regards, Angels. It is summertime, so I am more flexible with my scheduling, meaning I have more time to walk during the day as opposed to only after work during the school year. While caring for them at your home, I will make sure to walk, feed, bathe, and brush your furry loved one as if they were my own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Arundel on Rover is $69.38 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,116 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arundel. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Arundel walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Arundel maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Arundel 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!
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 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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Arundel. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
