“Candice is AMAZING!!! She has a genuine love and heart for fur babies. Jace & Candice instantly connected during their 1st meet and greet 💙 She was very interested in understanding everything about Jace from his habits, the food and treats he likes most even his favorite toys! Such a comfort to know that our boy Jace would be in the care of such a loving sitter. Candice shared updates and photos while we were away and made sure that Jace was happy. Thank you sooooo much Candice, we cannot wait to have you care for Jace again. Welcome to the family 😊”
About: I truly can’t imagine life without paws! Caring for dogs and cats has been a lifelong passion. I take a calm, thoughtful, one-on-one approach to pet care, paying close attention to each pet’s individual routine, personality and comfort level so they feel secure, respected, and genuinely cared for while away from home. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities and believe quality care goes beyond basic supervision. Much of my approach comes from my own experience as a pet parent. I spent 15 wonderful years with my dog, Fawn, and 18 years with my cat, Pepper. They taught me the importance of understanding and caring for each pet as an individual. Current Availability: Dog Boarding — Available weekdays for dogs comfortable with a typical workday routine (up to 3 weekdays/week), plus weekends & holidays. Cat boarding — 7 days a week Additional Services Walks, Day Care & Drop-In Visits: Fridays–Sundays & Holidays Work overnight or nontraditional shifts? My schedule may be a great fit for pets who need. care during those hours. Let's connect if my availability fits your needs — I’d be happy to provide reliable, personalized, one-on-one care for your pet. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priority. • Low-volume scheduling for individualized attention • Routine-based care that respects your pet’s comfort level • Supervised, calm, and structured environment • Clean and sanitized home, with thorough cleaning between stays • Consistent updates for your peace of mind • Safe, stress-free care in my home, yours, or on neighborhood walks
About: I've been caring for dogs of all sizes around the multiple states I've lived in for just over half a decade. Also have been a dog owner for a majority of my life and am comfortable giving meds to dogs as well as consistently giving walks to all dogs. Animals are my passion and I am even in school right now for animal based fields Currently job searching so I have all the time in the world to care for both my shih tzu and any other animals that may be included in my house at any given time. I will be able to easily walk and play with dogs of all sizes and ages I do have an apartment, however there is tons of safe and surveilled space to walk dogs and they will easily be able to go on mile+ walks if need be. My dog is another member of the family and I do mean that literally. She is treated as such and even eats at the same time as us (when she feels like it) and your dog will be treated no different than her as all pets deserve the best.
“Kathryn was awesome to help us out last minute walking our sweet senior pup while we were away. Everything was handled with such ease and my dog was clearly happy and comfortable.”
“Savannah did a great job getting to know Cody and she took great care of him! She had excellent communication with us throughout the stay and I always felt like my dog was well taken care of. I will book with her again!”
“We had an emergency and asked Haley to stop in very last minute and late at night to make sure our pet was okay. Haley responded immediately and checked on our home to make sure our animals were safe. We are so grateful to have a sitter as caring as Haley. 🙏🏻”

About: I have watched dogs and cats for the past 2 years. I’ve always loved animals and bonding with them! I love dog walking and playing with dogs outside to make them happy. I am very good with caring for dogs and making them feel loved! I am not working another job but I do have practice most nights during the week. However, during the day I will always be around unless I am at the gym or running an errand! I have a fenced yard and 2 very friendly dogs. I take them out every 3 hours and keep a routine schedule of when to feed them. Any dog is able to sleep in my room and bed if they would like.
“Trishia looked after my two cats for a week. She's nice and responsible. Did everything I asked her to per the care instructions. She also sent me pictures of my cats every time she visited. Highly recommend.”
About: I love all kinds of animals!! I have grown up around dogs my whole life. I used to walk my neighbors dogs all throughout high school and college. I treat every animal I take care of as my own dog, with lots of care and love!!! I have undergone a routine of caring for my own dog, with walking multiple times a day, playing with a bunch of toys, and making her entertained. I am open to caring for other pets and giving them the love I give my own dog. I work in the restaurant business so I have a good amount of free time! I love reaching out to owners when I am watching your dog. I will send lots of updates, photos, and everything in between while you're away!! After years of taking care of pets, I have come to understand that every animal is different and needs their own routine and care!
“Dominique was amazing! She met Zeus a couple days before. Each day she came by as scheduled to walk and feed him. She took the cutest photos and sent them to us. She even gave him some treats on Christmas Day! It looks like they had a lot of fun. He is normally very anxious and stressed when we are gone, but we came home to a very happy and healthy pup. Highly recommend Dominique!”
“Wow! I am blown away at how thorough Lauren was with our check in summaries! I loved seeing our babies happy and cuddly with a new person. It warmed my heart to read the messages and see the photos. She spent her full time with them and made sure our Bean didn’t knock over our tree while we were gone. We will 100% ask her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a happy, animal loving sitter. Thanks Lauren!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and previously worked in a doggy daycare, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I’m experienced with dog walking, safe leash handling, feeding routines, medication administration, and recognizing signs that a dog may not be feeling well. I’m especially comfortable with large and high-energy dogs and always use a patient, gentle approach to help them feel safe and comfortable. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, or extra attention, I’ll treat them like my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine and is something I genuinely enjoy. During the week, I’m available all day, which makes dog walks and drop-in visits a great fit. Spending time with animals is something I find both fulfilling and rewarding, and I love being able to provide pets with attention, exercise, and companionship while their owners are away. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care needs to help pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I take a patient, gentle approach and pay close attention to each pet’s body language and personality, whether they love attention or prefer their space. I also make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of exercise and enrichment, and lots of love. Regular updates and photos are always provided so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I’ve been around dogs as far as I can remember. I was born in Pakistan where unfortunately dogggos don’t have a good care system 😔, I’ve spent my life taking care and loving stray / rescued dogs and doing my best to make them part of a happy family. Since moving to the US 4 years back, I’ve rescued 3 fur babies from Humane society that have now become part of the family like any other member. I love taking care of all animals, from feeding to play time, watching them be happy is the most joyous thing ever!! I’m work from home full time, my wife is work from home 3 days a week. My work timings are really flexible which gives me plenty of time to spend time with the babies. I spend about 3 to 4 hours with my doggos each day, wish I could more but gotta pay those bills as well. All of our three doggos are super friendly and very playful. They love having doggos from friends over for play time. Our apartment complex has an unfenced yard for dogs to run around in and we have a dog park not 5 minutes away.
About: Hi! I'm a college student home for the summer with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for dogs. I provide a safe, comfortable, and attentive environment where your pet can feel at home while you're away! I have dog sat for family, friends, and even neighbors for a little over 4 years now! I’ve always wanted a pet myself but never had a chance to so I disperse my love and affection for all pets! I understand that every pet has different needs between playtime, walks, needing a specific schedule. I will make sure that whatever the need may be, I will follow it as closely as possible so that they can feel as comfortable as possible. I believe that communication is very important so I will always provide updates, pictures, and etc so that you can have peace of mind at all times! My goal is to make sure both you and your pet have a positive, stress-free experience. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I currently work with the government on a schedule where I choose the days and times that I work! Shifts are not available everyday so in the free time that I have, I love to pet sit! Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a calm, supervised environment and make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a comfortable place to rest, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. There are no other pets in my home and no children present! Pets can be crated if needed and they are not often left alone (if cannot be left alone at all then your pet will not be left alone!).

About: As a homeschooling mom, I’m home most of the day, so pets in my care get plenty of attention and aren’t left alone for long periods. I have a fenced yard and love spending time outdoors, giving dogs lots of fresh air and playtime. I am happy to stick to your pet’s schedule! As a photographer, I also love sending cute photo updates so you can see how much fun your pet is having while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, so pets get plenty of attention and aren’t left alone for long. Dogs enjoy regular walks in a safe, sidewalk-filled neighborhood along with playtime and a comfortable, relaxed home environment.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Crofton
Julia did an amazing job taking care of our dogs and cat! We were away for an extended trip, and she handled everything with exceptional care, professionalism, and warmth. Her attention to detail is remarkable—she noticed and seamlessly took care of extra things around the house and with our pets without us even having to ask. It provided so much peace of mind knowing our animals were in such thoughtful, capable hands. We are so grateful for her help and will absolutely book her again!
Talia was very accommodating to our requests even though some of them were last minute. She is very thoughtful and sweet. Our pets seemed to have warmed up after the initial meet up. She treated Kuma and Kitty as her own. We’ll definitely hire her again in the future.
Heather was outstanding watching our two dogs and cat while we were away for 2 weeks. She is reliable, communicates clearly, and is very comfortable handling multiple pets. During our trip, one of our dogs had an unexpected medical issue, and Heather handled everything start to finish. She recognized something wasn’t right, notified us and with our ok took him to the vet, kept us informed the whole time, and took care of the treatment he needed to get better. Her experience working in a veterinary setting really showed, and while we felt completely comfortable trusting her to make the right decisions, she also made sure we knew what was going on every step of the way. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and everything in great shape. Heather is truly extraordinary and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.
Hailey was great with my dogs (7 yr & 2 months). She gave a run down of what transpired each visit and sent pictures too. I felt so comfortable and relaxed that my girls were in good hands during the day when I couldn't be there. I will definitely use her again in future.
Trishia was fantastic!! As a new mom of a diabetic pup it’s a bit of a learning curve figuring out how to properly administer insulin. I scheduled Trishia for a drop in and she so gracefully gave me tips and tricks to help the process be more comfortable for Faye and I in the future! I will absolutely be booking her again in the future.

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 Crofton 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 Crofton 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 .

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 Crofton 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.
