“My pittie loves Lucie. He looks forward to their daily walks. Lucie has been such a godsend walking him daily as I cannot walk him right now due to my health. She is punctual, friendly, observant and very flexible. We really enjoy having her as our pet walker.”
About: I’m currently a college student at St. Mary’s College of Maryland but I’ve always had a dog growing up. Additionally I’ve also had hamsters and fish. I’ve pet sat for neighbors, friends, and family since I was a teenager. I’ve also used my art background to draw pet portraits for various people! So, I am very comfortable being with dogs of all sizes. Walking them, feeding them, crate/potty training, and of course playing with them! Further more, I’ve worked as a kids art camp counselor for many summers through Abrakadoodle art camps. And while no dogs were on premises (most of the time) I was in charge of keeping kids safe and engaged. I fully understand that animals are family and deserve someone trustworthy to look after them. In the summer I have an internship at the Maryland Anxiety Center on Tuesdays and Thursdays that I will leave early in the morning for and not get back until after 2pm Otherwise I am fully free Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. As my only other obligation is an online class! If housesitting is needed I would make absolute sure that nothing gets disrupted and that your pets are on track with their daily routines. I’ve housesat for neighbors before and I understand that an extra level of care is required for the animals overnight. Whether that means making sure they’ve gotten excessive for the day or whether they’ve been given a treat before bed.
“Taryn was prompt in responding to my request to walk my dog Leo and went over and beyond what was expected of her while walking him. She changed his water after walking him (voluntarily) and left detailed reports for each day she walked him. Thank you Taryn!”
“Rachel was excellent with our senior dog (Bentley). She took on the assignment at the very last minute due to our original Walker coming down with an illness. Ulthough a last minute request, Rachel came over the night before to make sure she met Bentley and to introduce herself to us. We explained our walking and feeding processes to her, and she was very accepting to the routine. While we were on our trip, Rachel sent us numerous pictures of Bentley either at home or on his walk. She kept us well updated on his activities. Unfortunately, while we were gone, he did have some accidents in the house, and Rachel cleaned them up and took care of making sure that everything was disposed to properly and that the rags used to clean up the mess were washed. Wonderful customer service. We would not hesitate to use Rachel again, as well as recommend her to any of our friends.”
About: I’ve always been around animals—I currently have a dog and three cats, so I’m used to daily care, feeding, and handling different personalities. I’ve also helped take care of my mom’s and brother’s pets over the years, so I’m comfortable stepping into someone else’s routine and making sure their animals are taken care of the right way. I’m patient, reliable, and I actually pay attention to details like feeding schedules, behavior, and making sure pets feel comfortable while you’re away. My schedule is pretty consistent, so I can plan around your pet’s needs. I’m available most days and can do mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on what’s needed. I already take care of my own pets daily, so feeding, walks, and check-ins are part of my routine. I’m flexible and good with sticking to whatever schedule your pet is used to. I treat other people’s pets the same way I treat my own. I pay attention to routines, feeding instructions, and behavior so your pet stays comfortable and stress-free. I have experience with multiple animals at once, including my own dog and cats, so I’m used to different personalities and energy levels. I keep a clean, safe environment and can follow any specific instructions you have, including crating if needed.
“Alyssa has been fantastic. I have reserved her services for two weeks now with great results. She takes great care of my dog while always giving updates. I will continue to request Alyssa for dog walking services when needed.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for a few years and have grown to love it! I recently worked at a dog day care so I have lots of experience with dogs and giving medications. I also have some vet experience too! I’m currently in college part-time but living at home. Outside of schooling I’m available in the afternoons and weekends. During the summer I have full availability. I provide a safe and caring environment for all pets. I make sure they have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and lots of attention. I follow the owner’s feeding and care instructions closely and keep pets supervised to ensure they stay happy, comfortable, and safe.
About: I have had a dog of every age at some point in my life and they brought me so much joy. I no longer have pets of my own but I would love the chance to care for yours. I am not currently in school so I will have plenty of time to give your pets (or pets) all the love and attention needed. I have a small fenced yard if the service will be done in my home, and will follow the pet parents routine if the service is at your home.
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and being a proud dog owner myself, I’m dedicated to providing loving, reliable, and attentive care for every pet. From daily walks and playtime to personalized attention and specialized care, my goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and comfortable. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, allowing me to provide dependable care while giving pets the attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, feeding, play sessions, or companionship, I enjoy creating a positive and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. When caring for dogs in my home or a client’s home, I focus on safety, comfort, and maintaining each pet’s normal routine. I begin by learning about their schedule, preferences, and specific needs to ensure personalized care. I provide regular exercise, enrichment, affection, and follow all feeding and medication instructions carefully. Throughout each stay, I keep owners updated with messages and photos so they always feel connected and reassured. Now that it is summer I am free mostly all of the time! I have a few vacations, and possibly other things that may come up but I will always make sure my schedule is clear! At home I let my dogs out every 2-3 hours, I feed them at the same time everyday, and make sure they have plenty of exercise! I really enjoy playing with my dogs at home as well, weather thats running around out back, playing tug-of-war, or even just going on a walk! Overall my favorite time of day with my dogs at home is bed time, my puppies sleep with me every night!
“Hailey did a terrrific job walking Sulley! She even went above and beyond and took Sulley for a jog and he was worn out and so well behaved for me when I returned from work!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was a kid. Walking, feeding, bathing, and training have all been part of the routine for over 11 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me with their pets time and again, and that trust is something I take seriously. Whether your dog needs a calm and structured walk, a bath, or just good company while you’re away, I bring the same patience and attentiveness every time. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and I have a lot of flexibility throughout the week, so I can work around most schedules. Whether you need someone on short notice, over a weekend, or during the week, I’m generally available and happy to accommodate what works best for you and your dog. Your dog will be in a safe, pet-friendly home with a fenced yard where they can run and play freely. I have pets of my own, so your dog will have friendly company and will be comfortable in an environment that’s already used to animals. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual temperament and make sure every pet in my care feels secure and at ease.
About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. I have owned a dog my entire life and have cared for my rabbit for over four years, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable, patient, and caring looking after your pets while you are away. I recently graduated college and am currently searching for a full-time job, so I have a very open and flexible schedule. I am available most days for pet care and can work around your pet’s routine. I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own space. I follow their normal routine, give them attention, take them on walks, and always make sure they are secure before I leave.
“Mike was very accommodating for a last-minute walk. He came over and got to meet. Coco asked some good questions before taking her for a walk. She was really happy to meet him and she was really happy when she returned from her walk so I know she had a good time. Mike was very respectful to me and my property. I will definitely be using him again!”
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.
About: I grew up with several dogs living in CT. Over the last eight years in MD I have offered to pet sit and walk or let out neighbors dogs building clientele. A dog to me is more than a pet its a loving companion, its therapy! Nobody else gives you unconditional love like a dog everyday you come home. I'm currently working remotely, which gives me the freedom to stay at the house all day and to make sure your pet feels comfortable and well taken care of. I like to stay at the client's home to make them feel safe and comfortable in their own environment and so they can stay in their routine.
“My dog has been a little fussy lately about going outside for walks. Julia had to pick him up and carry him around a bit before he would stay outside and do his business. I am thankful she took the care and time to do so!”
“Miranda has been absolutely wonderful, I’m so glad I found her. She was available with short notice to walk my dog a few days a week while I’m at work. She’s very reliable, punctual and she’s been sooo patient with my sweet boy and his behavior issues. I love seeing his Rover Card and hearing how the day went and seeing the pics she’s taken! She’s a real natural with animals. It’s such a relief knowIng he’s well taken care of when I can’t be there.”
“Zaynah has been a blessing. I just had surgery and can’t walk Lemmie right now. Lemmie took an instant liking to Zaynah. She does a great jobs, is extremely punctual and polite. Lemmie loves her and has the biggest smile after their walks. I highly recommend Zaynah!”
About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently pet sit for friends and neighbors. Love all animals, looking to meet new pet friends!! 💗 I work part-time and have 2 kids but have lots of time most days to provide nurturing care to you animals. I only work about 12 hours a week. I have a small fenced yard and lots of sidewalks in my neighborhood to provide long walks. If sitting in your home I will be respectful of your space and follow all instructions.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Crofton
Talia was amazing, as always! This was our second time booking with her, and once again everything went smoothly. She communicated well throughout the stay, kept us updated, and took great care of Luna. The entire process was easy and stress-free. We definitely plan on continuing to book with her in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. 🐾😊
Lauren is just fantastic! She took care of our 70lb labradoodle when he stayed at my folks' place while we were out of town---she was communicative, on time, professional, and most important of all, sje clearly just loves dogs, and took great care of our pup. Hire her!
Beth is so well attentive and cares for my Nova like her own! She’s always doing little things like bringing up the trash and making sure the waters are filled before leaving, which is so appreciated, especially being gone for so long out of the day. Having her walking nova every day makes me feel a little better that she has somebody who loves and cares about her during that time!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Crofton. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Crofton.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Crofton. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
