“Anna was so attentive to my two cats while I was away. The boys felt comfortable with her right away and she kept me updated on any concerns with their health and on the conditions in my apartment. She even took the time for extra drop ins to check in on them when she was near my place! I appreciate her so much!!”


About: I have over 20 years of experience watching family and friend’s pets. I do over-night stays in your house with your pets, and dog walking. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, fish, and even lizards. I’m able to give medications, and I’m very good with senior pets. I was recently laid off and have completely open availability at the present time. I enjoy walking and would be happy to do that with your pet. I’m also available for home/pet-sitting during vacations. I have a senior cat who doesn’t do well with other animals so I can’t provide care in my home, but I have extensive experience providing care in my client’s homes. I respect my client’s homes and privacy - I do not bring guests into their homes or go through their belongings. I will keep your dog on-leash during walks but am happy to play with your dog in your yard or approved dog park.

“Amazing. Moriah came to the rescue at the last minute for us. Great communicator, took Mylo and gave him some socialization experiences, and took great care of him. He loved her and his experience!”


“Vanessa has been reliable and a great communicator during the multiple times she's cared for my cats. It's great to be able to travel knowing my cats are in good hands with Vanessa!”


“Grace was always on time to the visits. She went far and beyond and did everything I requested. I'm grateful I had her to take care of padme. Definitely will pick her again for a future. Thank you Grace!”


“Laura took such great care of our cat when we were away for a week! The photos and updates provided peace of mind so that we could enjoy our trip without worry. We will definitely be asking Laura to care for our kitty when we go out of town in the future!”


About: I love pets of all kinds, shapes, and sizes. I accept all personalities coming from an owner of a very mischievous husky and a reactive senior pup. I have several years of dog walking and sitting in DC as well as working at veterinarian offices. I am also currently enrolled in nursing school so am no stranger to any medically necessary situations. I will always ensure to treat your pet like my own and make sure they grown to love me like their own! I currently work nights part time at UMMC as well as am enrolled full time in nursing school. Though that might sound like my schedule I’m jammed pack, I have plenty of breaks in between for your beloved pups! I also enjoy quality time outside and would love to have a fur friend to join me. I currently do not do pet sitting in home or out as I have a 3 year old toddler I simply cannot spend time away from and my senior pup is unfortunately dog reactive.

About: I love animals of all sizes. I have the entire summer off for your cutie pie to drop in and walk when you need a break or help. I live in Federal hill in baltimore for over 24 years so i am familiar with dog parks and walking areas. I am a high school art teacher of 3O years. I love the fast pace. In summer I go bananas if I am not walking or doing something. I have had two dogs that passed away recently. Stella was 18 and Demi Moore was 17. We have one cutie pie named Squishmallow and she does not like a long walk. I can administer medications and will love to take your doggie to parks or a quick outing. I have my summers off. I have an open schedule. I am an early riser and can walk mid day or afternoon. Some nights as well I prefer to walk dogs only. I can pick them up and take them to the park or walk to your house. I am open to what is need.

About: I have cared and loved dogs my entire life. I have two of my own that me and my wife have trained and raised since they were each 8 weeks old. I am an active individual that enjoys taking my dogs and others for walks. I currently work remotely on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. My job is very relaxed, allowing me to step away when I need to in order to meet your pets requirements. My own dogs are crate trained, however, do roam free in the house when we are gone. I have a backyard that allows them some fresh air and bathroom time.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior dogs needing special attention, I take pride in providing personalized and compassionate care. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, calm demeanor, and ability to quickly build trust with both pets and their owners. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and happy in my care. I treat each pet as if they were my own. I am currently in between jobs, so I'm looking to take care of pets on the side while I find a full time position! I am available throughout the day for drop-ins, long walks, or anything in between! I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours. I follow your pet’s routine closely, ensure a secure and clean environment, and provide plenty of love and attention. I also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Tracey was amazing with our cats! We have two cats that are timid with strangers, but Tracey was able to get one of them to come downstairs from hiding which is a huge achievement. She sent tons of pictures and I could tell the cats were well taken care of. Thank you so much, Tracey!!”


“So glad we rebooked with Joanna. She paid special attention to our cat as she was dealing with some bad hairballs and made sure to keep us updated. She went above and beyond helping with Azula and we could not be more grateful. Thank you Joanna!”


About: I am dedicated to providing fun loving care to dogs and cats. I was raised with both animals and have been a passionate pet lover since I was a little girl. I am committed to setting aside time for my furry loved ones just as I do with my children and grandson. Every animal deserves attention regardless of how busy a day can get. I have created a safe, playful environment at my home where furry friends feel right at home. While caring for pets in my neighbors homes, I made sure they were safe and secure in their familiar space.

About: I have been a lover of all pets ever since I was young with always being surrounded by dogs and cats. I am confident in taking care of any type of animal, big or small! I can work with pets with all personalities and can ensure that if your pet needs to be on a specific diet or a set schedule, I can follow through with those details. I am comfortable providing whatever services your pet requires! I have experience in taking pets for their regular exercise, ensuring they have the proper food and water, giving medications, etc. Looking forward to getting the pleasure of spending time with your beloved pets and will be willing to accommodate both the needs of you as the owner and your pet! I am available on Friday-Sunday for drop in visits, house sitting, and/or walkings. Throughout the weekend, I can be pretty flexible to accommodate your needs. . Due to a busy work week schedule, I can not have any pets of my own (just yet!) so your pet would be able to receive one on one attention!

About: Hi, I’m Alejandra! 😊 I have a background in biotech project management and am currently on a sabbatical, giving me lots of time to focus on my love for pets. Growing up with dogs, I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your furry family members 🐾 With my flexible schedule, I’m available for walks, check-ins, or extended stays. My home is cozy and pet-friendly, with treats and comfy spots for your pup to relax. I’d love to make them feel right at home and give you peace of mind while you’re away! 💛 Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! 🐶💫 I am flexible and able to work around your schedule! Mornings, Afternoons or Evenings. ESPECIALLY with the holidays coming around, I'm here to provide all the help you need :) I ensure I am with your pup the entire time they are in my care. Growing up with pups, I know how quickly they can get into mischief as soon as you turn away. My home has no hazardous concerns, just a comfy couch and yummy treats I keep around when I dog sit my family’s mini poodle, Charlie or my friends shih tzu, Zuzu!

“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!”


“Kelly was awesome with both my fur babies. After we had a booking cancelled last minute from another sitter, she was quick to respond to our request. I have 2 English Bull Terriers who are stubborn and not used to visits. She was able to handle them without issues. They got used to her quickly and she would always send me pictures and updates. She definitely treated them as her own and that meant the world to us. I would recommend her to anyone who loves their fur babies. Thank you Kelly! ❤️”
