“Briony was amazing with Cooper and he really enjoyed his time with her! It was my first time leaving him with a new person. She was very patient, communicative, supportive while I was away. She really went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable with the care she provided. Cooper had several hot spots that were in different phases of healing. She was very attentive to his care and made sure he got what he needed during every visit. Furthermore, after a power outage, my fridge had a leak. She communicated that to me asap and did what she could to ensure there was no additional damage. 10/10 would definitely recommend!!!”
“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!”
“Kristen was great! She went over and above in walking my dog around the block rather just letting her out in the back yard. I really appreciate the effort and time she spent with Betty. Will definitely be rebooking again soon!”
“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!!”
“Saniya was great! She was able to wrangle our three cats for meal times and made sure they all ate in their separate spaces. It put our minds at ease knowing they were being well taken care of!”
“Max took exceptional care of our cat while we were out of town. He was incredibly thorough, thoughtful, and communicative. Highly recommend you trust him with your pet!! Thank you, Max!”
“1000% recommend this sweet lady. She is very accommodating and uncommonly kind. She took very good care of my pet and my house while I was away. Most definitely will be back if needed :)”
“I highly recommend Shannon. I was out of town for 3 days and scheduled 2 - 3 walk in visits per day. Shannon was prompt for each visit and left detailed Rover cards with photos.”
About: Hourly Avail: M: Anytime AFTER 1:30pm T: Anytime BEFORE 2:30pm W: Anytime AFTER 3pm Th: All day F: Anytime BEFORE 5pm S: Anytime BEFORE 5pm Sun: Anytime AFTER 10am I have been a pet owner of large breed and small breed dogs, as well as cats over the course of my entire life. I’m trained not just in human CPR but also dogs and cats. I’ve cared for terminally ill animals, disabled pets, kittens, and puppies. I’m basically open to all, and look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I am a full time student currently, however, always feel free to message me for inquiries as I can sometimes work with scheduling. Please note my daily hourly availability listed below: M: Anytime AFTER 1:30pm T: Anytime BEFORE 2:30pm W: Anytime AFTER 3pm Th: All day F: Anytime BEFORE 5pm S: Anytime BEFORE 5pm Sun: Anytime AFTER 10am I do not have a fenced yard but I do have a large woodsy trail right in my backyard with plenty of run/walk space for the pups (leashed of course). I also have two cats and a very friendly medium sized dog of my own. For dogs that aren’t cat friendly, I do have space to keep the cats safely separate from the dog. However, I request that dogs boarded will have to be other-dog friendly for the safety of both the dogs and myself.
“Audrianna did an excellent job communicating and was quick to respond, even with me booking on short notice. It's very evident she loves what she does! Thank you thank you thank you!”
About: I have 2 dogs back home so I love to babysit, walk dogs. Dogs tend to love me:)! I have babysat and walked friends pets! I am in college, but I was thinking in between classes I could walk dogs and babysit some days! Tuesday and Thursdays are easiest days! I will play with them, let them out, walk them, and watch them 24/7. And just spend as much time with them, and feed them!
“We love Christian! He’s reliable, great communication, fast response time and super nice. My boys also loved him and can’t wait to have him back. We will be using him again”
About: What sets me apart is the love, patience, and attention I give every animal. I believe pets are family, and I care for them as if they were my own. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I’m comfortable keeping them on their regular routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and administering basic care. As an ESA owner myself, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also enjoy helping puppies burn off energy through play and can provide extra patience and gentle care for senior dogs who may need a slower pace and more attention. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, secure, and cared for until their family returns. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work three days a week—Sunday through Tuesday—so I’m very flexible during my four days off. On those days, I have plenty of time to provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and personalized attention. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their family is away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise while keeping their environment clean and secure. I also provide updates and photos so pet parents can have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is to treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own ESA, Millie.
About: What sets me apart is that I truly do love working with animals. I am a auntie to my sisters dog and enjoy the process of helping take care of him. I actually work many freelance gigs and can create content as a filmmaker, CEO and artist from anywhere, which allows me to give my sisters dog when she is at school or work all the attention he needs! Plus he’s my best friend so we just hang out together! While living at my moms house and during my time now preparing to transition to move out into the world on my own I’ve learned a lot from my sisters dog. I understand the importance of balancing fun play with the dog and maintenance and taking extra care of personal belongings such as keeping the household clean and together as if it’s my own!

Bri was more than I could have asked for. I was so nervous leaving my cat, but Bri was warm and had the most pleasant demeanor. My kitten takes a little while to warm up, but they became fast friends. The photos she sent were the cutest. Bri went above and beyond and even watered some new plants that I had on my front patio. This was the best first sitter experience I could have imagined. My kitten was happy and well taken care. Cannot recommend her enough. I will absolutely be calling on her again when I need a sitter. Thank you so much, Bri.
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!!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in College Park on Rover is $19.26 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 6,993 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across College Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 College Park 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
