About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats. My family has owned dogs throughout my life, and I currently have two cats of my own. Through both personal and family experience, I have cared for pets of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I am a responsible, dependable, and caring person who understands that every pet has unique needs. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I will make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets while you’re away, and I strive to provide reliable care and peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! As a high school athletic trainer, my schedule becomes much more flexible during the summer when school is out. This gives me additional time throughout the week to dedicate to caring for pets and ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. I enjoy staying active, so incorporating walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and check-ins into my daily routine comes naturally. As a pet owner myself with two cats, I understand the importance of consistency and reliable care. Whether your pet needs a quick visit, a long walk, or extra companionship while you’re away, I have the time and flexibility to make sure they are well cared for and comfortable. I do not take care for animals in my home due to two cats already at home. In your home, I will be respectful of your space and the time that I have with your pet

About: Growing up, caring for animals wasn’t just a hobby—it was a responsibility I took on from a young age. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve been helping stray animals by providing food, basic care, and safe spaces whenever possible. That early experience shaped my deep understanding of animal behavior, especially with shy, anxious, or previously neglected pets. In addition to hands-on experience with strays, I’ve volunteered at pet rescue organizations where I assisted with feeding, cleaning, socializing animals, and preparing them for adoption. This has given me experience with pets of all temperaments, including those who need extra patience and attention. Pet sitting has become a steady and meaningful part of my daily routine while I am unemployed. It gives structure to my day, keeps me active, and provides a sense of responsibility. Caring for animals, managing feeding schedules, and ensuring their comfort helps me stay productive while also earning some income and maintaining a positive mindset during this transitional period. --- I do not have pets of my own, but I provide attentive and reliable care for pets in both my home and my clients’ homes, depending on the service requested. In a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs, while also ensuring the home remains clean and secure. If caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable environment with regular supervision, exercise, and consistent routines to help pets feel at ease. My focus is always on maintaining the pet’s normal schedule and providing a calm, caring experience.

About: Hey, I'm Stephanie! I'm a dog walker and pet visitor based in Baltimore. I walk dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I also do drop-in visits for cats—basically any furry friend you have at home. I've been around pets my whole life. I’m currently a cat mom to two very energetic kittens and helped train my father’s boxers. I volunteered at an animal shelter in Washington state for years until recently relocating to Baltimore. I'm patient, reliable, and great with anxious or high-energy dogs. I'm available Monday through Friday from 7am to 2pm. I live in Charles Village and work from home, so I can fit walks or visits into my schedule easily. Let's make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve! My sons bus picks him up at 6:15 am so I have the entire morning and afternoon to care for your pet until about 2pm I understand every animal is different so I’m willing to be as hands on or laid back as your pet needs me to be and I’m very understanding towards anxious pets that need me to build their trust and affection

About: I’ve been around dogs since I was born. I’ve always loved all breeds and enjoy helping others with their fur babies. I’ve helped train puppies as well as taken care of geriatric dogs so I’m well versed in all types of dog care! I’m working full time outside of the city. However I’m interested in taking care of your pet on weekdays after 4pm or any time on the weekends! I’m near a park in the city for easy walking + sniffing ☺️. My home is clean and pet free for boarding. I’m very communicative and provide daily pictures of your fur baby.

About: Note: I live in downtown Baltimore but work in Arlington, VA so housesits in DC/Virginia are ideal. Hi! I’m Serena, a dependable and experienced pet sitter with over 10 years of experience caring for pets and homes. I grew up in a home full of cats and 1 dog and was a proud cat owner for many years. Since then, caring for other people’s pets has become something I truly enjoy. Friends, neighbors, and travelers regularly trust me to care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that pets are family, and I always work to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed in their own environment. My clients often tell me they appreciate my communication while they’re away. I make sure to send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can see how your pets are doing and feel confident they’re in good hands. Outside of pet sitting, I’m an avid gardener with over 30 indoor plants and a vegetable garden. Because of this, I’m also very comfortable caring for plants and maintaining a home while you’re traveling. At the moment, I am available full-time some weekdays during the day as well as some weekends. Please send me your dates, and I will check my calendar. My Care Style My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. During visits I focus on: • feeding and fresh water • litter box or bathroom breaks • playtime and attention • monitoring behavior and wellbeing • maintaining routines your pet is used to I’m also happy to help with small household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in mail, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away.

About: I have had a family dog and a cat for 10+ years. I recently got my own dog the summer of 2021 and she has been with me at college in Virginia. As a college student with a dog I have learned many skills in taking care of my dog Lola! I am currently a junior at Roanoke College! Dog walking is something I’m happy to do and enjoy doing! I would love to help anyone who may need assistance with walking/checking on their dog(s). At home my family has a fenced in yard, but we don’t like to let our dogs roam without super vision. We sit outside with them while they roam around in the woods. I also love to take Lola out of structured walks in our local park.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind through out my life; everything from chihuahuas to pit bulls. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I’ve also worked with senior dogs, administered medications of all types, ear drops, ointments, and pills. I currently have the flexibility of working remote in Baltimore and I’m mostly a homebody who enjoys the company of other people’s pets! I do not have any pets of my own and am able to stay with your fur baby in the comfort and safety of their home.

About: I am a therapist full time and I grew up with a labradoodle (he’s 13 and thriving!) I have two cats of my own as well. Growing up throughout high school, I was a dog sitter and dog walker for neighbors and family friends. I have so much love for animals and experience in senior dog care, post-surgery care, and all sorts of cat care :) I also have watched bunnies!! I work full time as a therapist but full time looks different as a therapist, I work about 25 hours a week so I have lots of time to drop by and check on your animal(s) or take ‘em out for a walk! I approach every animal with love and respect for their boundaries! I am a huge animal lover and my empathy I would say is my strong suit for both my full time job and this one :)

About: I grew up with english mastiffs and cats so I am well suited to caring for large dogs who need love and attention from someone who is comfortable with them. I am in college so my schedule is very flexible. I love taking care of pets in early mornings or early evenings, but I am happy to move my schedule around to accommodate your pet! I am happy to check on areas of your house to make sure that your pet is safe and has not gotten up to any mischief.

I am a 4th year medical student at university of Maryland with some free time this semester. My schedule is flexible and varies week to week. I always make sure to ask questions to understand the dog’s routine at home. I am very attentive to the dog’s needs and to make sure the dog stays comfortable at all times.

About: Hi! My name is Lynn, and I've been raising/ caring for dogs & cats since I was a young child. I worked as a live in dog sitter for 2 years while in college. I’ve worked at an animal rescue shelter in Chicago & dog walking company in Baltimore for a combined 3 years. Independently I’ve cared for all kinds of animals all my life and I honestly just love being surrounded by them! They make me happy & I would like to think I do a pretty good job at keeping them happy as well. Thank you and hope to see you soon! I am currently doing pet care full time so whatever schedule we work out will be guaranteed from me. Let’s figure out what works :) By giving individual animals the care and attention they need. Unless they need space, which I can give them too haha. They will be fed, walked and/or played with to fit their needs and as you instruct. I have a fenced in backyard.

About: I grew up helping to take care of my dad’s Rottweilers and German Shepherds from when they were puppies to senior dogs so have plenty of experience with all age ranges. Since I’ve left home I’ve taken care of my own Pomeranians and medium-breed rescue dogs and helped out friends and fellow service members while I was living in Japan. Patient and firm with animals of all shapes and sizes and understand the need to get someone to help take care of them as we’re all trying to work in this economy! I work full-time during the day so am looking to schedule early morning and late evening walks to help if you’re an early riser as well! I walk my own dog each morning and night. I’m able to provide healthy jogs, walks, or whatever your pup needs to keep them healthy, happy, and ready to rest for when you get home!

Incredible service. Harsh is professional, timely, respectful and compassionate. He arrived early to the initial Introduction and was in constant communication throughout. He took the time to meet and introduce himself to all my pets and asked follow up questions regarding care and schedules. When it came time for the visits, Harsh was incredibly kind and thoughtful to all pets, and very accommodating to their needs. By the time we got back home, our pets didn't even notice we were gone since he took such good care of him. They fell in love in 2 days! We will absolutely be booking with Harsh anytime we need someone to come care for our home!

Marisa is the greatest! She took wonderful care of our three animals (two cats and a dog) while we were out of town and kept an eye on our home. She is conscientious, friendly, and communication was perfect. Our animals absolutely loved her, and our normally water-hating dog even went out in the rain with her for a walk! She even picked up mail and let us know about minor issues with the house and trash can while we were away. As long as Marisa is available, we will continue to book with her. Thank you!!!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Baltimore

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Baltimore is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $31 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 6,369 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Baltimore. 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.

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 Baltimore 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 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.

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 Baltimore 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 Baltimore. 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.

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.
