About: I have a family dog, who I love! And also I have my own furry Labradoodle! I can walk your dog, feed them, and spend time playing with them and give them all the attention they deserve!! I am responsible and caring. I will care for your dog as if it is my own! I am currently home during the week and available. I am able to provide any needs that your dog may need. We are able to spend time outside playing and go on walks. I always make sure the dogs are always safe in my home. Any dangerous items are properly stored and secured away from the animals. When it’s time to play out side or go on a walk, I always make sure their leases are secured.
About: I am very attentive to my fur babies I have a 11 year old and a 1 year old their names are Milo and King. King needs a little more TLC he has congestive heart failure and has to take heart meds for the rest of his life. Milo is a ball of energy he keeps me on my feet he love to play run and belly rubs. Dog grooming is also available if needed for your furry fur baby. Pet care is very important to me. Proper pet care is the basis of responsible pet ownership. Caring for an animal can help make you feel needed and wanted, and take the focus away from your problems. I have 2 small dogs who loves company King is old and set in his ways so he doesn’t play much just bark and Milo is the social one he gets along with all dogs. There is a dog bark near by that I take him to so he can run jump and play with other fur babies
About: I have been around dogs my entire life and understand the care, attention, and patience they need to stay happy and healthy. Through caring for my own dogs over the years, I have experience with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and recognizing when a dog may need extra attention or care. I am dependable, responsible, and committed to providing a safe, loving environment while your pet is in my care. I will treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. As a teacher on summer break, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pet's care. I enjoy being active and love taking dogs on long walks, playing with them, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I will work to keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and following each pet's individual needs and routines. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks and, with owner permission, can take friendly and social dogs to local dog parks for additional exercise and enrichment. I will provide plenty of attention, affection, and updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands while you're away.
About: My childhood dog Magnum lived to age 20, so I feel that I can confidently say that I can shower your dog with love and care so they can live a long and healthy life! I work full-time but I am typically home from work by 4 on Wed-Fri and every other Monday. I am very active and love to get some steps in. I work in a hospital, so every day I am trusted with the lives of loved ones, and that pushes me to take my job very seriously. I don't have a pet at the moment, but I miss spending time with my dog and would love to care for yours!
“Alicia was able to take care of our dogs with short notice and we were appreciative of that. She was communicative, and very friendly with the pups even not having been able to meet them prior to caring for them.”
About: Hello, I’m Sabrina! I have always been involved in animal care spaces. I volunteered as a behavior volunteer for several years at Friends For Life Animal Shelter, where I learned about canine and feline behavior. I am certified in canine and feline CPR and first aid through PetTech! Your furry friend is always safe with me! Last summer, I worked as a canine care attendant at The Barking Muse where I walked dogs, monitored day care, facilitated activities and basic training, and cared for our boarders! I’d love to continue my pet care journey with you! Currently, I’m a college student home for the summer, so my schedule is wide open! I’d love to fill my time by providing quality pet care! I always meet the pet where they’re are at. I will never force a pet to anything it doesn’t want to and believe in understanding their behavior and boundaries. Through this method I’ve successfully addressed anxiety in both cats and dogs and formed meaningful connections!
About: I started by caring for my neighbors' pets and fell in love with the job! Since I only take on a few furry clients at a time, your dog will get my full, undivided attention. Whether it’s a long walk or extra couch cuddles, I’ll treat your pet like my very own family. I work a full-time 9–5 job in the financial field and am available for pet care during evenings and weekends. I’m very flexible, reliable, and dedicated to providing a safe, caring, and dependable environment for every pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine consistent so they feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walks, medications (if needed), and playtime. I treat every home with respect and make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owner is away. I also love to provide check ins and photos so their owner can feel confident while away!
“From our first contact on, Rachel was friendly, very helpful (this was my first Rover experience, and she made sure I understood how things work), responsible, and caring. I felt entirely safe having her take care of our cats at our home. She did a great job, and sent us some truly awesome pictures! I highly recommend Rachel. ?”
“Mina was caring and attentive to Otto, making us feel comfortable being away. She sent pictures of Otto from her visits. She did everything we requested to care for our cat and our house in our absence. I would feel completely comfortable hiring her again during our travel!”
“Curtis was a great caretaker for our two cats: Dropped by everyday, administered pills, changed food, water, and litter in addition to play time! Heavily recommend, he's a great sitter!”
About: Hi, my name’s Leo and a I’ll be looking after your pet. New to Los Angeles, I grew up in the Baltimore area with a Cocker Spaniel named Buddy. Five years ago, my family took in a Border Collie/Shetland Sheepdog named Lady. In the last seven years, I've often house sat for neighbors and taken care of their dogs, yard work, and any other animals they may have, typically when they were away for vacation. I currently live with my cat Sampson and only get to see our family dog Lady when I return to Maryland to visit my parents, so I'd very much love to take care of your dog to feel a little more at home. I would be thrilled to take your dog for walks or jogs, do drop in visits throughout the day, or house sit for you! I make my own schedule so I can be flexible to fit yours. I will do my best to accommodate your schedule if last minute changes are needed. I live in a studio apartment with my cat, so I likely will not be boarding animals with me at this time unless it is another small cat. My cat tends to keep to himself so he will not bother your cat.
About: Hi, I’m Laura! I grew up with dogs and have recently come to love cats too (unfortunately due to my apartment building’s no-dog policy) I work from home and can often be available on short notice if you’re nearby. I genuinely enjoy the fun, good-natured company pets bring and am looking to build lasting relationships with both Doggies and Kitties and you! Their most important person. I’m open to all types of care - drop bys, walks, sitting - as I grow on Rover. Fun fact: I’m great at belly rubs and scooping poop like a pro 😊 I work full-time from home. Since I am new to Rover I am still figuring out my routine availability. Please ask for what you need and I am happy to talk it through to see how I can help. As a Mom I completely understand the importance of routine to keep your pet happy and healthy. Your rules are my rules! I would like to extend your care even when you can’t be there.
About: My family has had 2 dogs since I was 6 years old and our current dog is a 6 year old Portuguese water dog, my best friend! I have grown up with pets and have been dog sitting for many of my neighbors at home since I was 12 years old. I have experience with both puppies and elderly dogs and I love any size and breed! I look forward to getting my dog-fix meeting your dogs! I am a recent graduate at CU and I'll be in Boulder for the next few months before I head home! I don't have any jobs so I'm available almost all the time! I live in a house in the top unit (accessible my stairs) with one other girl! I'm happy to house your dog here or stay at you're home as well!
“As a first time puppy owner, finding the right person to watch your fur baby is nerve wrecking. Riley was amazing!! She provided in-home daycare for our pup and kept up with his routine. She sent pics and videos of him and he seemed so happy. I’ll definitely be booking her again to watch or furry friend.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animal since I was a baby! Growing up, I was always asked if I lived on a farm because of all the pets we had (I did not, but it felt like one). This includes large and small dogs, cats, goats, bunnies, guinea pigs, ducks, guinea hens, snakes, a turtle, and fish. Being surrounded by all these animals while growing up has made caring for animals come naturally to me. Currently, I do not have any pets where I live, but I still consider my two cats and a large yellow English lab as my pets! Although I am new to Rover, I have years of experience of pet sitting various types of animals of all ages. I am comfortable with all types of dogs and am very active, so I would make sure to spend plenty of quality time taking them on long walks or when stopping in for a visit :) I also love spending time with cats and other animals, so I would always be free for a drop in! I am currently a nursing student on summer break, so I am free for drop-ins and walks whenever needed, and am very flexible to last-minute requests. I am available mostly during the weekdays at any time, and some weekends as well. When in your home, I will follow your normal routine with your pet closely to make sure they feel comfortable and loved, whether that is long walks around the neighborhood/on a trail, visits to the park, special treats, or anything else they might enjoy.
About: Having 3 dogs of my own, taking care of pets is almost second nature to me. One is 12 with health issues and the other two are hyper doodles. I bathe them, walk, feed and give medication as needed. They are like my children. I've done the same for friends and family's dogs while they've traveled or worked extended hours. I have driven many miles to help my family and friends with their dogs. I am college student, so my hours are very flexible. My classes are mostly online, so I am very flexible with my schedule and will do my absolute best to work my clients in! I am a very gentle guy who provide love and care for all pets. I respect all client's property and make sure everything is left where it was when I leave.
About: I have been taking care of pets my whole life, as I have grown up playing with, walking, and attending to my own, neighbors, friends and family’s pets! I am a college student home for the summer, so with that being said I have plenty of availability, and am very flexible when it comes to petsitting!. I provide lots of affection and reward based training. I am able to keep your pet safe and provide a comfortable and loving environment for them!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cockeysville
Brian was absolutely wonderful with our Bernedoodle puppy Oreo! Despite Oreo being a 60+ pound bundle of adolescent energy, Brian handled him with patience, confidence, and ease. He was always on time, professional, and genuinely caring. Oreo absolutely loved his visits and that says everything. Highly recommend Brian without hesitation. Will definitely book again!
Josh is the best! He agreed to meet and get to know our pets first which took the worry away knowing he was kind thoughtful and responsible. He was flexible with the schedule and so good with our rather anxious dog. Our dog actually seems calmer was brushed and well cared for while we were away! and he is even leaving food in his bowl after Josh suggested he may need more food cause he seemed hungry and so we said ok and learned Josh was right maybe that was all it was cause now he doesn’t inhale it in 5 minutes! He also was flexible when I had a last minute thing to do and needed his services for the weekend. Can’t say enough great things really glad I tried this service and was lucky enough to get Josh!
Maya was great with our dogs! She was prompt, reliable, and always showed up right when she was supposed to. She took the time to sit with them, comfort them, and made sure they felt safe and loved while we were away. They loved her. We’ll definitely use her again!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cockeysville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Cockeysville 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Cockeysville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
