“Izzy was so great - very responsive and took care of all my requests! Very grateful that I found her on Rover, and I'll definitely be booking with her again!”

Stephanie S.

“Madeline did such a wonderful job taking care of our pups in our home for the weekend! She was super responsible and responsive and it was clear our babies had a wonderful time with her. We will definitely reach out to Madeline again for future dogsitting!”

“Paola was our first pet sitter since we moved to MD almost two years ago and our first time using the Rover App so we were a bit nervous but Paola came a few days before our trip to meet us and our pets and really put our mind at ease. Paola is so kind and gentle … our puppies soon warmed up to her and Paola took really good care of our pets and provided lots of pictures and communication during her stay. We will definitely ask Paola to pet sit for us again in the future! She is truly a “gem”!!!”

“Jennifer is a dream. She stayed two days and an overnight with my two aging rescue dogs and I believe they would have preferred to swap me for her by the end of her stay. She cuddled and played with them and sent great pix, and she left the house spotless. She was so easy to work with and a good communicator. I will definitely use her again for home stays with my dogs.”

Kathy K.

“Elizabeth has performed housesitting on several occasions for our two Golden Retrievers. We make sure that she is available when we schedule vacations that require onsite care for our fur babies. She provides frequent updates including pictures. We trust her to make the appropriate decisions regarding household activities.”

Marvin S.

“Xena is reliable and very sweet with my anxious dog. This is the first time leaving him with a sitter and he warmed up to her almost immediately. Thanks!”

Beth E.

“Katherine was amazing with my girls!! She was able to do a meet and greet before our booking and ever since was very responsive and kept me update all the time. At the time of her stay she was very respectful of our home, and took amazing care of my dogs. Definitely will book again!!”

About: I’ve been taking care of pets - fish, dogs, cats, and birds primarily - for around 10 years. Possibly more. Absolutely love being able to assist elderly pups as well I’m currently a college student who has a lot of free time at various times during the day. Happily available to stay over as needed I play with and relax with the pets during the day and take them on walks as needed. Depending on age or size of the dog I try to give them one longer walk each day.

“Shania was great with my dogs and cat. She sent pics of my furbabies and had good communication. And she left my house tidy. I have used petsitters over the years, through Rover and friends, and Shania has been the best thus far. I would definitely recommend her. I plan to book with her again in the future”

Ebony M.

“Zoe was fantastic! I’m always worried about Prince when I leave, and have not had the best experience with overnight Rovers staying at my house ie keeping it clean etc. and Zoe was nothing short of a dream. She kept me updated, sent me so many pictures of Prince, was patient with him because he can be super energetic and let me know if he accidentally ate anything. I came back and my house was just how I left it. Hopefully she is available for my week long trip at the end of July because I will be booking again!”

KeAnna B.

“Musse did a great job on a last minute house sitting for our two dogs and cat! Very communicative and sent regular updates/photos of everyone.”

Jessica L.

“Tyasia was great. She was quick to respond and easy to book. Kaci had a blast with her and I know this because he slept a lot the next day lol. I will definitely be booking again.”

Kereen C.

“I simply cannot express the relief I had while traveling with Vanessa as my house/pet sitter. I have 2 cats and was babysitting my daughters cat, who arrived the day I left. Vanessa sent pics everyday of the cats snuggled with her or chilling in their fav spots! My trip was very unexpected, and it was my first time using Rover. I’ve always wary booked Vanessa again for a trip I had planned and was going to take my cat to my daughters, but it was so much more relaxing for them here in their home❤️”

Angela M.

“As always, Connie took great care of our two [giant, stinky, crazy] pups and the house looks great!! We got plenty of photos and updates and they are so happy!! We are so thankful for her allowing us to have a stress free trip every time we leave our babies with her.”

Melody E.

“I can't thank Sarah enough for the wonderful care they provided our dog, Joshua. Josh is usually very anxious when left alone for an extended period of time, but Sarah made him feel incredibly comfortable and relaxed. Sarah's calm and caring demeanor truly made a difference. It was such a relief to us, too, knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.”

Lisa C.

“Paul took care of Chorizo for three days and he was great with him!! Will recommend Paul.”

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my deep empathy, patience, and lifelong commitment to animals. While I do not offer professional training, I have a wealth of experience that money cannot buy: providing compassionate, dedicated care to senior pets and animals with health challenges. ​Throughout my life, I have loved and cared for my own pets from youth through their golden years, learning firsthand how to give them the highest quality of life, comfort, and dignity during their old age. I know how to maintain gentle routines, administer specialized care with patience, and offer the calm, loving environment that older or delicate dogs need. ​Please note that my primary language is Spanish and my spoken English is basic, but I am always practicing, and I communicate perfectly to give you daily updates and follow your exact instructions to keep your furry family member safe and happy. As a professional oil painter, I have total time flexibility. I can easily visit your pets whenever needed. For longer stays, I can even bring my small portable easel and work on my art right there with them. I don't need much space! I can paint, watch them, and play with them throughout the day, ensuring your pet is never lonely and always safe I provide care exclusively at the owner's home, where your pet feels most comfortable and safe. I strictly follow your house rules and safety routines. Whether your pet prefers open space to play or needs quiet time in their designated area, I adapt completely. I ensure your home stays perfectly clean and secure while providing constant love, supervision, and companionship to your furry family member. I offer basic dog bathing, blow-drying, and brushing. I am not a professional groomer, but I can do simple machine trims/shaves only if you provide the clippers and equipment. I do not do complex or professional scissor styling. Standard rate is for a basic bath; extra trim services can be adjusted before booking

“Great sitter! He stayed full-time for 6 days, took excellent care of our two dogs (including administering meds), and went above and beyond helping with things around the house. We came home to a happy pups and everything in great shape. Highly recommend!”

About: What Sets Me Apart I offer more than just a standard check-in or walk—I bring a lifetime of genuine animal love combined with specialized, hands-on experience to ensure your pets are safe, happy, and completely understood. Here is what makes my care unique: Senior & Special Needs Expertise: I have a deep understanding of senior pet care. Whether it’s managing medication schedules, recognizing subtle signs of discomfort, or just providing the extra patience and gentle pacing that older pets deserve, your senior companions are in incredibly safe hands. Puppy Training & Energy Management: Navigating the puppy phase requires consistent structure. I love working with young dogs to reinforce basic training, maintain potty routines, and channel all that amazing puppy energy into positive, healthy habits. Multi-Pet & Diverse Species Experience: My home is a sanctuary for all kinds of animals. From handling high-energy dogs and independent cats to caring for unique exotic pets like geckos, I understand the distinct body language and routine requirements of a truly diverse range of species. When your pets are with me, they aren't just being watched—they are being treated with the same deep respect, attentiveness, and family-level care that I give to my own. Pet care isn't just a side task for me—it’s seamlessly woven into the fabric of my daily and weekly structure. Because my routine centers around a flexible, home-based schedule, I am able to provide the consistent, attentive, and highly reliable care that pets thrive on. Here is how I integrate dedicated pet care into my routine: A Natural Part of My Day: Managing a busy, active household means I am already completely dialed into strict daily routines. Feeding schedules, fresh water refills, and multiple potty breaks are second nature to me and easily sync with your pet's specific internal clock. Built-in Movement and Fresh Air: I value keeping active and getting outside. Daily walks and high-energy playtime aren't chores—they are highlights of my schedule that allow me to give your dog the exercise, mental stimulation, and neighborhood exploration they need. Meticulous Environmental Care: Just as I maintain high standards for my own surroundings, keeping a spotless pet environment is part of my regular weekly rhythm. Daily litter box scooping, deep-cleaning food bowls, and organizing pet areas are deeply embedded in my normal cleaning habits. Evenings and Weekends for Quality Time: When the daytime rush winds down, my evenings and weekends are dedicated to winding down, too. This is when I love providing the quiet companionship, gentle grooming, and couch cuddles that keep pets feeling safe, loved, and part of the family while you're away. Because my life is set up to balance multiple priorities smoothly, your pet receives structured, dependable care without me ever having to rush their routine. Care in My Home (Boarding & Daycare) When pets stay with me, they aren't kept in isolation—they become part of a structured, lively, and highly attentive household. Seamless Integration: I run my daily business from home, which means your pet enjoys constant human presence and supervision. They are integrated right into our daily rhythm of work, play, and relaxation. A Sanctuary for All Personalities: My home is designed to accommodate different comfort levels. If your dog loves a pack environment, they will have plenty of company. If they prefer a quiet corner to decompress, I have dedicated, cozy spaces where they can rest undisturbed. A Safe, Social Environment: With experienced resident pets of my own, I am highly skilled at managing animal dynamics. Introductions are always handled slowly and safely, ensuring everyone feels secure and respected in the space. Care in Your Home (House Sitting & Drop-Ins) If your pet prefers the comfort of their own walls, my priority is maintaining absolute consistency, security, and cleanliness while you are away. Flawless Routine Replication: I follow your specific instructions to the letter. Whether it’s feeding at an exact timestamp, following a precise walking route, or administering medication, I ensure your pet's internal clock and habits aren't disrupted. Respecting Your Space: I treat your home with the utmost respect. In addition to keeping your pets happy, I ensure their environment stays pristine—handling meticulous litter box maintenance, keeping feeding areas spotless, and making sure everything looks exactly how you left it. Security and Peace of Mind: You will receive regular updates, photos, and quick communication so you never have to wonder how things are going. I also keep a vigilant eye on the security of your home, ensuring doors are locked, mail is brought in if requested, and the property is secure.
