“Leah was a huge help to us over Labor Day weekend, dropping in to let out and feed our three dogs. My husband and I are both small business owners, so we jumped at the chance to take a brief overnight trip together and Leah’s help made it possible. She was on time and engaging with the dogs and they were well cared for in our absence. We would definitely recommend Leah!”
About: As someone who lives with and manages a high-energy working breed every day, I know exactly what it takes to keep active pups properly exercised, mentally stimulated, and safe. I specialize in providing structured, loving care that respects your dog's unique routine and keeps your home peaceful and tidy while you're awaY I currently run my own company. I only work a few days a week and that leaves me plenty of time for all the pups! I provide dedicated care exclusively in your home to keep your pet safe and comfortable in their own environment. Because I have extensive personal experience managing high-energy breeds, I excel at maintaining consistent structure, following your exact training routines, and providing plenty of mental and physical exercise. I treat your home with the utmost respect, keeping everything clean and secure while ensuring your pup stays happy, safe, and tired out
About: I am not only pets friend and lover, but also there strong defender. A whole my life i was surrounded by forest animals and domestic pets. I love to spend my time with animals. They bring me a peace and kęp me moving. I can’t imagine my life without them. I I keep them safe, happy and relaxed. I give them not only food and water, but also love and care. I take a lot of them.
About: I cannot remember a time in my life where I haven’t had pets. I currently have a 6 year old Golden Retriever who is like a child to me! I can take care of your babies like they are my own and give them extra love until you’re home! I can do drop-ins and/or walks Tuesdays through Fridays. I have lots of availability in the mornings and afternoons to come help out! I will treat your home with care and respect, I would never cross any boundaries. I understand that this is your space and I will treat it as such.
About: I have been walking and sitting dogs for over 20 years, starting at age 11 when I realized dogs just made sense to me. I have owned hounds my whole life and currently share my home with a spirited beagle/jack russell mix named Tate who keeps me well-practiced with high-energy breeds. I recently lost our beloved 11-year-old foxhound mix Juniper, a gentle 70-pound soul who reminded me daily why this work matters. I am a firm believer in Cesar Millan's calm, assertive approach to dog handling. Dogs respond to confident, consistent leadership, and I bring that to every walk and every stay. I am comfortable with all breeds, large and small, and experienced administering medications and hands-on therapy when needed. I work from home in central Annapolis, which means flexible scheduling and plenty of attention for your dog during the day. Your pup is a member of your family and I always treat them like a member of my own. I own a design firm that I run out of my home. My work varies as a creative from video work to graphic design and more but it all comes from my home office located right next to my dog's food and water bowls (my hound dog Tate is currently asleep at my feet- exactly where he loves to be, and right where I love to have him). My workdays typically start around 7am and I work through the early afternoon, occasionally in the evenings. Though I have a full office setup, I also have a laptop that travels with me during house/dog sitting sessions if I need to be away for an extended period of time. As my work is on the creative spectrum, I can always adapt my schedule to fit around yours (and your pup's). Whether it's daily walks or stays with your dog, you can rest assured that they will be looked after with love, care, and the attention they deserve. I live in an apartment in Annapolis so we don't have a fenced in yard. Instead, I take my boy out in the neighborhood on short and extended walks and in the community dog park. Sniff spots and local trails are always on our schedule as our dog is high-energy so he thrives on long walks with lots of smells. Depending on your dog's needs and routine, I'm happy to take them on long walks in and around your neighborhood and parks they're comfortable with, or just playing with them in your own backyard. I'm also open to taking them further out to nature hikes and trails as long as you're comfortable with that. I tend to have Blue Buffalo, Newman's Own, and Charlee Bear treats at the ready (but of course that's up to your discretion) for good dogs and I always adhere to any diet or medication requirements to ensure a happy and healthy experience. I treat your dog like I treat my own and I've always had a great experience with every breed and personality.
About: As a lifelong pet lover and pet owner of over 11 years, I understand that pets are family and deserve the same love, patience, and attention we give our own. While I'm new to Rover, I bring years of hands-on experience caring for pets, including senior dogs and raising and training my Doberman, Brody, over the past three years. As a full-time architect, I'm detail-oriented, organized, responsible, and a fast learner. I understand the importance of following instructions carefully, maintaining routines, and making sure every detail is accounted for. Whether your dog needs a leisurely walk, extra patience and care in their senior years, or simply a little extra love and attention while you're away, I'll do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I'm committed to being reliable, communicative, and respectful of your pet's individual needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I look forward to building that trust with every booking. I can't wait to meet you and your pup! I work full-time as an architect, but I'm happy to incorporate pet care into my daily routine! I'm available for walks and drop-in visits before my workday begins and during my lunch break, with additional availability outside of my regular 9–6 schedule depending on the day. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities! I live in a welcoming, family-oriented community with accessible walking paths and plenty of green space to explore and enjoy. It's a great environment for daily walks, fresh air, and outdoor adventures, not to mention it is walking distance to Quiet Waters Park, which includes a dog park/beach. My Doberman, Brody, is a friendly companion who may be able to keep your pup company, provided they're a good fit for one another. As an experienced pet owner, I understand that every dog has their own personality, boundaries, and comfort level, and I'll always prioritize their individual needs.
“Lauren truly went above and beyond for both us, and our fur babies. She walking me though the process of my first time on Rover. Then she really played and loved my pups like her own. Sending pictures of cuddles and spending any extra time with them that she could. We are truly grateful to have found Lauren♡”

“Tiffany was a real trouper to come visit our 3 month old puppy. She is knowledgeable, organized and loves dogs. Communicates promptly, and is open to changing circumstances. I highly recommend her.”

About: I bring over 15 years of hands-on experience with animals to ensure your pet receives the best care possible. Having trained numerous puppies over the years, I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and tailored approaches. My commitment to an active lifestyle means your furry friend will enjoy not just routine walks but engaging activities. I take pride in providing customized services to meet the unique needs of each pet, whether it's energetic playtime or gentle care for seniors. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and my extensive experience sets me apart as a dedicated and knowledgeable caregiver. I currently work remotely for a mobile dog grooming company during the weeks and have freedom to travel to my clients homes during this time to ensure all time possible is spent with my furry friends for maximum cuddles and company! I have 3 dogs who love to have new mates to play with in our fenced in back yard! They will also be great for keeping your dog company during the days where they miss their family. We love the dog park so if approved of, we would love to take a few trips to play! I can easily crate your dog if needed or requested as long as a crate is provided. They are welcome in any part of our home and of course, on the couch and beds for some snuggles!

“First time we have ever used this Service and Alexandria was perfect. Great pictures, notifications and updates were clear and the stress of leaving our dog at home and as gone!”

About: I’m a lover of dogs who has been caring for and training dogs for 10 years. My experience came from dogs of my own along with dogs of friends and family members. In the past I have ventured into breeding and training. I currently have one dog name Princess who is on a raw food diet due to some digestive health issues. Princess is extremely calm and playful and loves a bunch of affective and her is daily as will your pup. My wife and daughter are very loving and go on family walks around our subdivision daily and can’t wait to include your pup into our routine. We are a extremely clean and tidy family so do not expect to get your pup back smelling bad or looking a mess. I currently work remotely so there is always time to go for walks during the day as it is necessary to get some sunshine and exercise for the pets and for me to get away from the computer screen. Please let me know what works best for you and what accommodations are needed for your pet and I will make sure it is taken care of. I have a comfortable home and an extremely friendly and playful dog name Princess. I have a nice size backyard in a great neighborhood to take walks in. I am huge with communication as it is important for you to know that the furry member of your family is good and safe while in my care. I can send pictures and text message updates if desired and I am also accepting of calls to check in.

“Samantha is awesome with my pets. She has come by for last minute drop ins and has always been reliable, friendly, and kind. Would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies!”

About: As a dedicated dog walker and in-home pet sitter with over two years of experience, I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. I care for every dog (and cat!) as if they were my own — with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs and routines. What You Can Expect: ✅ Safe, fun, and tailored walks ✅ Home visits that follow your pet’s schedule ✅ Clean water, food, meds (if needed), and lots of affection ✅ Daily photo updates and messages so you never have to wonder how things are going ✅ Respect for your home and your pet’s space I’m trained in basic pet first aid and always check collars, leashes, and gates before heading out. Whether it’s a quiet walk or an energy-burning play session, your pet's safety and happiness are always my top priority. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet! I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help make your time away stress-free for both of you. 🐶🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because of how flexible and rewarding it is. Since I set my own schedule, I can book pet care clients around my part-time job shifts and study blocks, which helps me stay balanced and productive. Walking dogs gives me a much-needed mental reset from screen time and studying, and it keeps me active throughout the day. It’s also a great way to supplement my income without taking on another traditional job. Most of all, spending time with animals brings me a lot of joy and motivation — it breaks up long study days and reminds me why I love what I do Whether you’re at work or away for a few days, I provide reliable, in-home care that keeps your pets safe, happy, and stress-free in their familiar environment. From daily walks to feeding, playtime, and medication routines, I tailor every visit to your pet’s unique needs. 🔐 Safety & Professionalism Equipped for pet first aid always carrying a kit Detailed home-entry and security protocols Leash and harness checks before every walk Weather-conscious and always alert to potential hazards Respectful of your home, your pets, and your time 📸 Peace of Mind After each visit, you’ll receive a photo and short update so you know how your furry friend is doing — because trust is built on communication
About: I have grown up with Pitbulls and Frenchies my whole life so I am confident that I can take great care of your beloved pet! I work from home and will be with your lovely dog all day (unless I need to go out to run an errand) so no need for you to be worried that they’ll be alone! I prefer to crate any dogs that are not mine while I am away from the home just to make sure everyone has their own space. If Dog is not crate trained, then I will place them in a room if I need to leave the house.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Crownsville
Courtney has done a few drop-ins for our dog and she’s been great every time. She consistently goes beyond our expectations with walks and care. She uses the app to track the route she walks so that we can see exactly where our dog Bailey went and for how long. Courtney always includes multiple pictures and very detailed notes. She is the most detail oriented and thorough sitter we’ve had. Highly recommend!
Jazmin has been wonderful!! We are so blessed to have her watch our fur babies. She was always on time, sent at least 10 photos and our pups loved her. She was very conscientious about them eating and even giving them snacks. This was our first time having Jazmin at our home but we will certainly use her services again!!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 13,897 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Crownsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. 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 Crownsville 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.
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.
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 Meet & Greet.
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 Crownsville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Crownsville. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
