About: I’m really observant and pick up on pets’ moods and behavior quickly, which helps me adjust to what they need whether that’s play, space, or extra attention. I’m patient with shy or energetic pets, comfortable with routines like feeding and walks, and I focus on keeping them calm, safe, and genuinely comfortable while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible and consistent schedule for pet care throughout the day. I also have pets of my own, so feeding, cleaning, playtime, and routines are already a regular part of my daily life.🤎 I prioritize pet safety by staying attentive, following routines closely, and keeping a clean, secure environment so pets feel comfortable, protected, and well cared for at all times.🤎
About: Hi there! I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, caring for pets like dogs, cats, and even ferrets. I’m currently in college studying to become a vet tech and work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I care for pets of all sizes and personalities. I started pet sitting in August of last year and have loved every second of it! I provide personalized care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, and I treat every pet like family. Let me know how I can help care for your furry friends—I’d love to meet them! I am currently a student, and my work schedule varies weekly, typically ranging between 6:00 AM and 6:30 PM. However, I pride myself on being highly flexible and am happy to accommodate your needs with clear and timely communication. I currently have two dogs at home—a pit mix and a greyhound mix. My pit mix does not get along with other dogs, so I have experience managing and keeping dogs safely separated when necessary. I am also experienced in administering medications and ensuring pets receive the care they need. Additionally, I provide detailed updates and photos throughout the day to keep you informed and at ease.
About: Me and my wonderful partner Jazz have decades in the fur-tastic game! With a childhood on a farm, my daily crew included dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and cows (just to name a few!). I wear a perpetual grin, love nature walks, and I always take time to train any of our furry guests! As an at-home actor and producer, I occasionally swap my comfy couch for the thrill of a film set. We always love some furry friends to play with our corgi. Daily walks? We're on it 2-3 times a day. Backyard escapades? Always on the schedule! And come weekends, we're either hitting the trails or chasing fun at the park. Safety first, fun always! Our neighborhood is safe and walking distance to a park. And for the tinier fur-bundles, we've got a cozy crate ready for some snug time.
“Tiana was great! I was nervous since this was my first time using the app, but Tiana was super responsive, caring, rand my baby was in good hands. Would recommend!”
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, I offer dedicated and compassionate pet sitting services. I am well-versed in feeding schedules, administering medications, and providing plenty of exercise and playtime. Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities, ensuring they feel loved and comfortable while you're away. I work full-time with a hybrid schedule, allowing me plenty of downtime to care for your pet, ensuring they receive ample attention and love. n In your home, I care for pets by following their established routines to minimize stress. I provide regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, playtime, and any necessary medications. I ensure a clean and safe environment, give plenty of affection, and maintain open communication with you for updates and any concerns.
About: I have several years of hands-on experience providing reliable, attentive, and loving care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Pet care is what I do full-time, so your pet’s safety, comfort, routine, and happiness are always my priority. I strive to create a home-away-from-home experience where every pet receives plenty of attention and individualized care. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, high-energy breeds, shy or anxious pets, and dogs that require additional patience or special accommodations. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding schedules, administering medications when needed, maintaining crate and potty routines, and following any specific instructions provided by pet parents. I also have extensive experience caring for multiple dogs and prioritize safe introductions, supervised play, separate feeding, cleanliness, and making sure every pet receives one-on-one attention. Throughout their stay, pets receive regular potty breaks, outdoor time, exercise, playtime, affection, and plenty of opportunities to relax. I provide photo and video updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away. In addition to boarding and daycare, I also offer grooming services, convenient airport pick-up and drop-off, and airport parking with transportation assistance. I’m located directly across from the airport, making my services especially convenient for pet parents traveling out of town who want to drop off their pet and/or vehicle in one convenient location. Every pet has their own personality and needs, and I take the time to learn what makes each one comfortable. My goal is to provide a safe, clean, dependable, and loving environment where your pet is treated like family from drop-off until it’s time to go home. Pet care is not something I do on the side—it is my full-time focus and a major part of my everyday routine. Because I dedicate my schedule to caring for pets, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, attention, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and plenty of affection throughout the day. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate boarding, daycare, drop-ins, extended stays, and pets with specific routines or special needs. I structure my day around the pets in my care and make sure each one receives individual attention rather than simply being left alone for long periods. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers relaxing and receiving one-on-one attention, I adjust my routine to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. I also provide regular photo and video updates so pet parents can stay connected and feel confident that their pet is enjoying their stay. Safety, cleanliness, comfort, and supervision are always my top priorities. I understand that trusting someone with your pet means trusting them with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I provide a secure, comfortable, home-like environment where pets can play, relax, and receive plenty of attention while maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible. I carefully supervise interactions between pets and take the time to understand each pet’s personality, temperament, energy level, and individual needs. Introductions are handled gradually and responsibly, and pets can be separated whenever necessary for feeding, sleeping, relaxing, or simply having their own personal space. Feeding is handled individually to help prevent food-related issues, and I closely follow all instructions regarding meals, medications, crate routines, allergies, behavioral needs, and special care. Pets receive frequent potty breaks, supervised playtime, exercise, fresh water, comfortable rest periods, and lots of affection. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and videos throughout their stay. My goal is for every pet parent to leave knowing their pet is in capable hands and for every pet to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and genuinely at home while in my care.
About: I’ve been around dogs most of my entire life and started helping care for them at a very young age. While living with my father, we had multiple dogs and raised them from puppies into their senior years. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, bathing, and general daily care. I’ve had experience with a variety of breeds, including Boxers, German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Beagles, Labrador Retrievers, Great Danes, and Dobermans. Some of the German Shepherds were trained in basic obedience, and I helped support that training. My fathers dad was a police officer and had working dogs, including a Great Dane and Doberman, and I would help care for them when he was away and spend time with them regularly. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was around 5 years old up until I moved in with my mom a few years ago. Even though I’m not currently living with dogs, I’ve continued to stay very comfortable and experienced around them and still have a strong love for animals and pet care. I am currently a college student with a flexible schedule and I also work part-time. My availability varies throughout the week, but I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs! I have classes on Mondays and Wednesdays from 9:30 AM to 3:30 PM. I work on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays, and my shifts usually end around 1:00 PM, 2:00 PM, or 3:00 PM depending on the day. Fridays and Saturdays are completely open, so I have plenty of availability for pet sitting, walks, feeding, playtime, and potty breaks. I’m dependable, caring, and willing to communicate with you ahead of time to make sure I can provide the best care for your pet! I prioritize safety, trust, and following each pet owner’s instructions carefully while caring for pets in their own home. I am comfortable spending time outside in a fenced yard and will happily sit and play with your dog to make sure they get exercise and attention in a safe environment. I can also crate or kennel pets if that is part of their routine or preferred by the owner. I have experience with basic pet care routines, including administering medication when needed, taking them out for potty breaks, cleaning up, and following specific instructions exactly as given. I always make sure pets feel comfortable and secure while maintaining their normal habits as much as possible. I enjoy playing with pets and keeping them active throughout the day! I like using toys such as ropes for tug-of-war and fetch, as many of the dogs I’ve cared for in the past enjoyed those activities. My goal is always to keep pets happy, active, and safe while in my care.

“Laura was so wonderful with our kitty while we were away for a long weekend. She provided excellent updates, was very flexible and very communicative. Our kitty was happy and well cared for when we returned!”
About: After spending my childhood years helping take care of dogs of many breeds and sizes, I naturally became a dog lover! I have been a dog owner for 15+ years to my pom-chi and I recently added a bichon-poo to my pack. They are treated like my babies as I have been nurturing them since they were puppies. Along side my mom's Chihuahua at times- the girls are very healthy, happy and playful. Outside of being a dog mom, I always have a love and connection to the animals and enjoy volunteering at the shelters and horseback ranch. I've administered oral and ear medication, post op care, given baths/grooming, brushing teeth, taken care of puppies... among other pet care needs. I signed up to provide these services as I enjoy the company of dogs. They're fun loving animals and a pleasure to take care of. I ensure to make your fur baby feel like they're at a home away from home. I currently live with 3 dogs and a cat of all different ages, while working from home full time. We have a routine of our own which other fur babies are welcome to join. I'm currently working from home full time and have time throughout the day to look after and care for your pets with plenty of play, rest, water and care. I have a fenced in back yard for the dogs to enjoy. My 2 other playful girls are there to join in on the fun while my senior dog can show off her favorite spots to lounge and sun bathe. I sometimes take the dogs for walks around my neighborhood so they're able to release energy and enjoy time outside the property. Although I am home, I do have crates available, if your dog prefers their own personal space. I've administered oral and ear medication, post op care, given baths/grooming, brushing teeth, taken care of puppies... among other pet care needs. In case of emergency, I'm 5 minutes away from a caring vet that I use as well as a 24 hour animal hospital.
About: Hi! My name is Tyson, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. Growing up with pets taught me early on how important patience, consistency, and love are when caring for animals. I currently work in childcare as a nanny and babysitter, and many of the families I work with also trust me with the care of their dogs inside their homes. Over the past seven years, I’ve gained experience caring for other people’s pets, including walking, feeding, bathing, nail trimming, and general grooming support. I also have my own Cane Corso at home, so I’m very comfortable handling large and strong breeds. Because of this, I’m confident managing leash pullers on walks and working with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I pay close attention to dog body language and always aim to create a calm, safe, and fun environment for every pet in my care. I’m an active person and love engaging with dogs through walks, playtime, and enrichment so they stay happy and stimulated. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and has a great time while you’re away. I do childcare as far as being a nanny from 2:40 pm to 6 PM Monday through Friday so I am available anytime before or after that time. And I am available all weekend long. When caring for pets, my main priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for just like they would with their owner. In a client’s home, I respect their routine as closely as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific instructions to help the pet stay relaxed in their familiar environment. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while you’re away. If I’m caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, supervised environment where they can relax and stay active. I have experience handling dogs of all sizes, including large breeds, and I make sure every dog gets proper exercise, structured walks, and positive interaction. I always pay close attention to body language and behavior to ensure all pets are comfortable and stress-free. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident that their pet is happy and in good hands.
About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and empathy I bring to every pet I look after. As a pet parent myself, I understand that pets are family—not just animals. Recently, I experienced the loss of my own beloved fur baby, which deepened my appreciation for the trust pet owners place in someone caring for their pets. That experience reinforced how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable when their owners are away. I pay close attention to each pet's personality, routine, and individual needs, whether that means extra playtime, a slower pace for a senior pet, or simply providing companionship and reassurance. I pride myself on being dependable, communicative, and detail-oriented. Pet parents can expect regular updates, photos, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing their pet is receiving genuine care and attention. My goal is not just to watch your pet—it's to make them feel cared for, understood, and loved while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work a structured schedule that allows me to plan dedicated time for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so providing consistent care, attention, and updates to pet parents is something I genuinely look forward to. Whether it's maintaining a pet's regular routine, administering medications if needed, or simply providing extra affection and exercise, I make sure each pet receives personalized care and attention. I believe every pet is happiest when their routine is respected, so I take the time to learn each pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, preferences, and any special instructions. In both my home and a client's home, I prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible through regular walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of affection. I also provide updates and photos so pet parents can feel confident and connected while they're away. When caring for pets in my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. I monitor pets closely, ensure they have access to fresh water, comfortable resting areas, and opportunities for play and enrichment throughout the day. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in good hands.
“I honestly couldn't be happier with how Michael took care of Duke over the holiday weekend. Duke really thrives on his routine and being happy in his own environment, and Michael completely understood and honored that. Michael loves animals and it shows. He truly went above and beyond, spending quality time with Duke all weekend. From the thoughtful updates to the regular pictures, I never had a moment's worry about Duke's care, even being out of the country. It meant the world to me to know he was so incredibly well looked after. Michael's care was simply outstanding!”

Especially those creatures living in our man-made jungle. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time and attention to devote to your fur baby.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - College Park
Daniel was great! He was very accommodating to my pups needs and went the extra mile for her and I. When my dog refused to go out in wet grass, he made a third trip back to ensure she was comfortable and accident-free overnight. I really appreciated his extra care and highly recommend him!!
Madison was an amazing sitter and I would absolutely hire her again to watch my dog. She was very understanding and patient when watching him. He’s got a few little weird traits but she was able to adapt to his needs to make sure he was comfortable while I was away. I received daily updates with pictures and I could tell he was being well taken care of and enjoyed his visits with her.
Sean was our first experience hiring someone to look after our girls. He was extremely responsive, kept us updated, and spent time with our babies. One of them consistently had accidents while we were gone but Sean took care of it every single day no problem. He made sure to spend some time with them in the yard and gave them some brushing due to it being shedding season! Since he lives close to us, he would pop by in to check on them in the afternoon. One of our babies started showing some scary symptoms our last night of vacation and Sean cared as if it was one of his own babies. Sean was fantastic and we highly recommend hiring him!

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 College Park 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.

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 .
