“Shania did a wonderful job caring for Hampton and Neko on her first stay with us. She was very communicative and kept me updated with great pictures throughout her overnight stay. I also really appreciated how she left the house in excellent condition. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Samantha has cared for our dog (and home) twice now. Again we returned home to a happy pup and clean home. Samantha kept us informed and sent photos, and I wholeheartedly recommend her.”
“Keira was great with our old pup Toby while we were out of town. She was knowledgeable about care and Toby was in great hands. She gave updates and photos throughout the stay.”
“Katie was great! Our dogs loved her when she came over and met them! She took pictures of my babies and reassured me they were in good hands! Look forward to having her come and hang out with the pups again!”
“Tabitha is WONDERFUL! My dog is very emotionally needy (has anxiety), and I needed a sitter very last minute. Tabitha came to the rescue and was so attentive with Franny and did such a good job with her! I really trust her and i can’t wait to use her again 🙂”
“We cannot say enough positive things about our experience using Keira to help sit with our corgi, Francis. She came for a Meet & Greet prior to scheduled date and we so appreciated that. She gets high marks for her continuous communication, pictures and follow up note outlining time schedule of activity with Francis. Our dog responded well to her and seemed very relaxed in her company. We highly recommend Keira to others who want top notch care for any of their pets. She is mature, responsible and very professional in the services she offers. We will definitely use her again for Francis! Thank you to both Rover & Keira for offering such high quality services for pet owners who require only the best care for their furry family members!!”
“Naya handled all my dog could throw at someone new - from pooping in his crate to trucking her into extra play time outside, naya handled it all perfectly. When I got home, I literally had to reassure my fiance someone did take care of juicy- she left the house with no trace she was here, she only left behind a happy well loved pup! Will be booking naya again!”
“Aryanna took care of our dog and cat while we were out of town for a week. She did a wonderful job! She was very thoughtful and attentive to the pets, and kept us updated on how they were doing. I highly recommend her as a house and pet sitter!”
“Brittney was absolutely amazing. She was so nice and communicative. She sent lots of pictures and didn’t mind giving me updates. Our pups loved her and we felt so comfortable with her taking care of them!”
“They were both very kind and personable. When we got home, the dogs seemed super happy and not stressed. Very easy to communicate with. We hope to book with them again!”
“When my other Rover cancelled on me last minute Julion happily stepped in and did an absolutely fantastic job watching my dog while I was away. Cannot say enough good things about his service and professionalism. From the pet care, daily updates, pictures, I would use him over and over and will recommend him to any and all.”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, extra playtime, or a little patience and encouragement, I’m happy to provide attentive care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and bathroom breaks while making sure each pet receives the attention and care they need. I’m committed to being reliable, punctual, and communicative so pet parents always know their furry family member is in good hands. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and walking preferences. During walks, I remain attentive to my surroundings and keep pets securely leashed unless otherwise instructed in a safe, enclosed area. In your home, I will respect your space, maintain your pet’s routine, and provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident your pet is receiving excellent care while you’re away.
“Dorothy was great with my dogs, and sent me pictures each day I was away. They loved her! I was comfortable and had little worry about how they well they would be taken care of. She may have spoiled them more then me. Would recommend her and will be using her services again.”
“Hollie is the best. My kids just adore her and enjoy every moment they can with her. They greet us when we return, just calm and happy. I know they’ll be well cared for and well loved when Hollie is here.”
“We couldn't use our regular dog sitters for a trip so decided to use Rover. Robyn was everything we could hope for and more!! She took care of our dog(Pepper) and kept us informed while we were away. It helped make our time away more enjoyable knowing how well Pepper was being taken care of!! Thank you for everything Robyn!! We got home and Pepper was happy to see us and the house was as we left it. We really appreciated al Robyn did all week with Pepper!!! Really made our trip that much more enjoyable knowing Robyn was here watching him. We also really appreciated all the updates and pictures! Robyn was TERRIFIC!!!”
“Lisa was amazing with our dog Roscoe!! We appreciated that she kept us updated with pictures and messages, it was so nice to be able to take a weight off our shoulders and know she was doing such a stellar job! Roscoe loves her and her daughter, and we were thankful that Lisa also took the time to water our plants and herbs. We’ll definitely be a repeat client, I’d recommend Lisa without any hesitation!”
About: Pets are family and they deserve to be treated that way! I want to provide that service as well and gain the trust of your animal as much as I do yours! I am currently a college student with breaks during the day to be able to care for your pet in between classes and in the evenings I follow instructions from the owner as to what needs to happen when. I take time to sit and pay with the pets in order to gain their trust
About: Hello! My name is Xin. I live in Ellicott City, Maryland, and hope to care for your fur-babies! I am newly-reactivated, but for the past 6 years I have fostered with the rescues Friends of Rabbits in MD and Penny and Wild in FL, so I have been active in the pet care and rescue community! I'd say I'm fairly active, going to the gym 4 days a week for strength training and running 4 times a week, so I have gotten strong enough to handle bigger dogs. I also love dogs that can run alongside me so I'm for you if you have an over-active dog! I've grown up with a dog, walked countless dogs of various ages, shapes, and sizes, have one house bunny and a former feral tuxedo cat of my own, and worked with caring for up to 14 cats at a time in a Petco! I'm also a rabbit foster and regularly foster and volunteer with local rabbit rescues and shelters - I have fostered at least 10 rabbits now and it's rare for my place to not have more than one enclosure at a time. My services include dog walking, day care, cat boarding and day care. I even have experience with rabbits with special needs, guinea pigs, and reptiles. If you need any proof of credentials, I would love to provide resumes, photos, references, and other proof of experience. To set up a meet & greet with me, send me a booking request! We can do either face-to-face or over video call! Planning ahead? I'm available for any holiday bookings this year. Contact me! I work from home teaching an online music studio and will have my entire day free until at least the coming school year, during which I will be teaching at the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra's OrchKids program as a Teaching Artist. I also spend some time at the gym and also run a lot; if your dog loves to run he or she is welcome to come along! I have a camera set up at all times for when I am away and use the app Alfred to track how my pets are doing, which you may access as well. I believe in open communication and constant vigilance when it comes to pet care- I see too often people being honestly audacious and trifling when it comes to pet care which is why I decided to reactivate my account after having taken an extended break from the platform (but not from pet care in general). I will send as many photos and videos as you require (within reason) and every request will be accommodated for to the best of my ability. All pets except dogs will be indoors only.

Tabitha was so great with our dog! We have a very nervous and anxious little guy who doesn’t like strangers and she put him right at ease and he was cuddling with her all weekend. Tabitha also kept our home very clean. Would definitely recommend Tabitha for pet sitting!
Due to an unexpected travel issue, Jared was able to start a little earlier than anticipated which helped immensely. He also addressed a minor medical issue with one of the dogs which we greatly appreciated.. He provided great service for our dogs and we appreciate everything he’s done while we were away. Will certainly use Jared when he is available.
Cashae was a wonderful sitter for our 2 pups!! She is a Dog Lover for sure! She took great care of our dogs. She was with the dogs 24/7. It meant a lot to me knowing that Cashae was a perfect fit as a dog mom, while we were gone for awhile...I highly recommend Cashae!!?
Sara did such a lovely job of taking care of our two dogs/house sitting for an extended week. Dogs were obviously well looked after, they took to her immediately, we received frequent updates with pictures, and the house was exactly how we left it (even slightly cleaner). Would highly recommend Sara, and we'd love to have her care for our pets in the future.
We were very happy with Sean as a pet sitter for Bruno, our American Staffordshire Terrier, who is very anxious with new people. Sean's patience and understanding helped Bruno relax quickly. Sean sent daily updates and photos of Bruno playing in the yard and chilling on the couch. Sean also finished giving Bruno the final doses of medication for an UTI developed just before our vacation. We will definitely use Sean in the future.
Our animals were all so happy when we returned. After an unexpected vet visit the day before we left and additional meds and care, Shania didn’t miss a bit. She texted to confirm instructions and for guidance to be sure she got things right. We will definitely have her stay with our group again!
