I will definitely consider Jennifer going forward because of this great experience.”


About: Hi! I’m a 19-year old college student, currently on summer break looking for a way to make extra cash! I’ve always had atleast 2 dogs my whole life and have all the experience! I love all the dogs and cats from small to extra large and shy to extroverted. I’ve taken care of puppies, kittens, elderly dogs and cats, lizards, hamsters, etc. I do work during the weekdays 8-4 but am available before and after to help care of your pets! I look forward to meeting new furry friends :) I currently work a 8-4 job during the weekdays but am available before or after work to stop by or stay over if needed. I’m also available basically all day on the weekends. I have a sizable yard which is fenced in and I always keep a close eye on my dogs. I take care of them appropriately and never fail to give them love.

“Angela was so sweet and was great with my pair of dogs!!! My girl can sometimes be nervous around people but she went right up to Angela for scritches during the meet and greet which says a lot about her :)”


“I had a great experience with Dalara! She was easy to communicate with, great with my kitten, and was flexible when I had to make last minute changes. She even cleaned up a little when my other sitter left a bit of a mess. I can’t recommend her enough and would absolutely use her in the future!”


“Vikki was patient and communicative about her visits with Olive. Really appreciate her willingness to hang out while Olive hid until she was comfortable coming out from under the bed. Highly recommend.”


“Samm was truly the best cat sitter we've ever had on Rover! She was so dedicated to sending us so many different photos, details about how our cats were doing and was so responsive to every little question I'd ask. She also kept everything so tidy and really went above and beyond what we asked for. I can tell she really cared about their welfare and wanted to make us being away as pleasant as she possibly could for them. Even though they are shy cats she tried her hardest to play with them as much as possible and talked to them to make them feel comfortable and looked after. They were able to warm up to her more each day! We will continue to book her without a doubt for our cats!”


“I would give Tracey 10 stars a million times over if I could!! It feels like an absolute gift to have stumbled upon her Rover profile. We’ve been struggling with cat sitters for years, and after working with Tracey, we FINALLY feel so happy to have found someone trustworthy, loving, caring, responsible, and communicative. Our cats have NEVER felt comfortable with strangers, but Tracey was absolutely incredible at getting the kitties to warm up to her, and we know they felt extremely safe with her. She sent frequent pictures so we always knew our babies were happy. And she left our home spotless and in great condition. We are so thankful for Tracey and can’t wait to use her services again next time we travel! Thank you Tracey!”


About: I’m a pet parent with experience caring for a Great Dane. I recently did drop-in visits for Penny, the lovely girl in my first photo! I am happy to work with dogs of all sizes. I am happy to make any special accommodations your pet needs, including a special diet or administering medication. I have education in animal training and experience training reptiles. I work full-time but have telework flexibility, meaning that I could work from your home while house-sitting, and walk or play with your pet on my break. I have a calming presence for the pets I’ve worked with. Your pets safety is my top priority. I will respect your space if you choose me as your pet’s caregiver!

“Ariel was excellent and made my first experience on rover very pleasant! Her communication was great and my dogs were very happy as well. She was able to accommodate all my needs with very short notice. I would recommend her to anyone in the area that needs any assistance with your dogs!”


About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 14, and it’s truly second nature to me. From playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets needing a gentle touch, I have experience with animals at every stage of life. I’m experienced in basic puppy training, including leash manners, crate comfort, and establishing routines. I’ve also raised and cared for cats, dogs, and even a 4-week-old kitten who’s still with me 10 years later. I also spent my high school years working on a farm, which gave me hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals—dogs, cats, lizards, fish, chickens, sheep, cows, pigs, goats, and horses. That background taught me how to stay calm, attentive, and adaptable in any situation. I also have experience administering medications—pills, liquids, and topicals—and am trained in pet first aid, giving me the confidence to handle unexpected situations calmly and effectively. With my medical background as a full-time nurse and my lifelong love of animals, I provide thoughtful, dependable care you can trust. Throughout high school and college, I was regularly trusted to house sit and care for pets while families were away—something I take great pride in. Today, I share my life with a dog, a cat, and a horse of my own, so I understand just how much your pets mean to you. Whether your pet needs active playtime, patient care, or just a calm, comforting presence, I’m here to provide the same love and attention I give my own. I’m a full-time registered nurse at the University of Maryland Medical Center, working three 12-hour shifts per week. This schedule gives me several days off in between, which I dedicate to pet care—perfect for drop-in visits, walks, and weekend boarding. For boarding, my husband Kevin and I provide care in our home. With our combined schedules, your pet will rarely be left alone. Kevin also has years of experience with animals and dog training, so your pet will be in capable, caring hands with both of us. We treat every pet like part of our family and are committed to making them feel safe, happy, and loved during their stay. In My Home: Your pet will enjoy a safe, fun, and loving environment! I have a fenced-in yard where they can play freely with my friendly, playful dog. On hot days, there’s a shallow kiddie pool for splashing fun—and while we do have a larger pool, it’s securely fenced off for safety. Whether your dog prefers lounging or playing, they’ll have the space and freedom to feel at home. Dogs are welcome on the couch and bed, and I’m happy to follow any crate or sleep routines you request. I treat each pet like one of my own—comfortable, happy, and cared for. In Your Home: I’m respectful of your space and always leave things clean and as I found them. I make sure your pet is safe, secure, and happy—whether it’s feeding, playtime, walks, or just companionship. I always leash dogs before heading out, and I pay close attention to your pet’s routine, preferences, and safety while you’re away.
