“Christa has a way with animals - my cats liked her immediately when she came over to meet them before my trip. She sent pictures every day. Seeing that all was well helped me relax and enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with my family!”

“Angel went above and beyond in her care for our pets. One of our Guinea Pigs was actually pregnant and gave birth while we were away- none of us expected or had experienced this before- and Angel herself works mostly with cats and dogs but she handled it like a pro! She took such great care of all of the babies and sent us pictures and videos every day as requested, which was so fun for my kids because they wanted to be there. She bought more veggies for them as needed and kept their cages very clean. I will definitely be using Angel again in the future and I highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with plenty of hands-on experience caring for pups of all personalities. I grew up with dogs and regularly care for friends’ and family members’ pets. I’m also comfortable giving oral medications when needed. I currently share a very energetic 2-year-old Jack Russell Terrier with my roommate, so I’m no stranger to zoomies, walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles! I’ll treat your pup like one of my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. 🐶💕 I have a flexible schedule that makes pet care easy to fit into my week! I’m off work every Friday, so I’m available for dog walks essentially any time that day. I’m also off on weekends, making me available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. For longer-term or extended stays, I would need a week or two of advance notice so I can plan around my weekend schedule. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that works best for both you and your pet! 🐶🐱💕 I want every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me or in their own home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of attention and affection. For in-home visits, I’m happy to care for pets in the comfort of their own environment and make sure they get the same love and attention they’re used to. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! 🐾💕
About: Hi! I’m Shelley 😊 I’ve been caring for dogs for over 15 years and truly love what I do. After recently losing my own dog, I really miss the daily walks, playtime, and cuddles which is why I treat every dog in my care like my own. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs with medical needs, including administering medication, so you can feel confident your pet is in capable and attentive hands. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to be home most of the day and provide consistent care, supervision, and attention. We spend a lot of time outdoors—walking in the neighborhood, visiting the park, and enjoying walks around the lake. I’m able to maintain a flexible schedule to meet your dog’s needs, whether that’s regular potty breaks, multiple walks, or extra playtime. We spend a lot of time outdoors—whether it’s neighborhood walks, trips to the park, or walks by the lake. I love keeping dogs active, engaged, and happy, and I’m comfortable in all types of weather. I have a fenced patio area and live near a lake with a large open field nearby, perfect for walks and playtime.

About: I go by Nicole(middle name). I work for MCPS. Also im a MaryKay/Pampered Chef consultant. I am a mother of four. I have a dog named Dixie. She is a German Shepherd and loving.I used to have a full bred pit, but we had to give him away due to living situations.I like when the owners leave me a note or text just briefly about their pets normal routine so I can make their fur babies feel safe and comfortable around me. Playing with their fur babies on their level is important so they understand I'm friendly and harmless. Taking them outside is very important to me,they get fresh air and exercise as well. I just feel it is important any pet understands and feels as they are family.To me every pet is worth spending time with, getting to know them and love them. Have a blessed day! My puppy herself is high maintenance and has lots of energy. Taking care of her has helped me learn how to manage time more wisely and be able to challenge her while on walks. I take their pets on walks, depending on what their pet is. Honestly it all depends on their daily routine. I wouldn't want to change anything that their pet is used to so I would go off what their owner tells me their pets routine is.

About: I have had several pets through my life and all have had different personalities. Adapting to them to make them comfortable is important. I also have helped family take care of their new puppies. I’m very comfortable and understanding when dealing with puppies. Currently I can do any time! I don’t mind having an early morning or late night drop in. I am very flexible and want to make this easy for YOU! Just communicate what you need and it’ll be great.

About: I have been a dog lover from birth, but no other pet has tested that besides my favorite bernedoodle, Pavi. I lived with Pavi and her cousin doberman, Oso, throughout their entire puppy phase (jump scare) and their dramatic toddler years. I did Rover for about a year and a half in 2024 and absolutely loved all the kinds of dogs that roamed through my house. I am not scared of a little mess and definitely not scared of cuddles either. I have seen a variety of dog personalities to the shy, angry, mischievous, and caring dogs. There were times I saw dogs with it all. I am super excited to care for and play with your loved pups they way you would. And don’t be surprised when you receive an album worth of pup photos after every visit. Right now I am working part time as a youth development specialist for MCPS, so i’m looking for something that would give me some physical activity and seretonin. I always keep my pups entertained by me or by any creative ways i can think of around the house. Hide and seek, peek a boo, fetch, tug a war, you name it. i love to play with them outside so that they can get nice and tired and sleep through out the night.

I’m very responsible and integrity is very much so apart of my character. I will update you on everything that goes on as communication is very important.

Cornell did such a wonderful job with my dog Biggie, he’s a year and a half old and has lots of energy! He went on walks and got to play with other dogs! I will definitely hire Cornell again and highly recommend him! He even came for a meet and greet before our scheduled visits, put my nerves at ease! Wonderful experience!!

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 Clarksburg 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 .
