“Jennifer was our first Rover experience and it was absolutely great! The communication was great, she sent pics, and the house was in the same order when we got back the next day! I would highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Took brilliant care of my pup Pearl very last minute. Kathleen took great care of her and I came back to a happy pup. It is a big relief to have someone I trust taking care of Pearl.”
“Brittney was great! She was able to handle my gargantuan sized Goldendoodle with ease, and give him the love he deserves while I was away. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again or to refer her to others.”
“Melody was very responsive, sent lots of pictures and kept our 2 great Danes very happy during her stay. Our house was potentially cleaner when we got home than when we left!! She's great”
“Naya is a repeat house sitter for my big silly pit mix and my elderly cat. She does an incredible job of following all instructions and balancing the needs of my dog and senior cat. We trust Naya!”
“Briana was absolutely amazing again! We were so lucky that she was available on somewhat short notice. She is wonderful with our dogs and is so good with communicating and providing updates. She even found a gap in care that I had missed in my planning.”
About: I’m particularly fond of taking care of the most finicky and quirky pets with care, firmness and patience. Skilled at administering meds, going for long walks and spoiling with treats. I work per diem, so I have a lot of time to spare with your pet! Available for boarding on the weekends anytime after 2pm. I have a cat tower at home that’s strategically placed in front of a birdfeeder attached to the window. It makes for an excellent front row seat for hours of birdwatching.
“Jennifer was awesome! She stayed at our house with Annie and took care of everything. Will definitely book her again if needed. Highly recommend her if you need a sitter.”
About: I’ve recently started pet sitting for friends and family and found it very rewarding. At home I am use to looking after my dog Remy who is an 90 pound poodle mix along with my cat Mia. They both are a handful but they are members of the family that have prepared me for looking after others. I am currently attending graduate school and am looking to start work near my home. I am always looking for opportunities to pay my way while helping others. I will work to make time in my schedule to accommodate yours! I always try and be friendly and patient. At home my dog Remy takes medication nightly while also having quiet the personality. His boisterous nature can be hard to rein in but when he is given his time he settles.
“I can’t explain how GREAT MICHEAL IS ! Is there was 20 stars I would give it to him. Is the process I also receive the best fall pictures of the girl that Micheal took. If I was you. Book book book !!!”
“Johnathan was absolutely amazing! My dog Luna is dog reactive and can struggle with meeting new people. Johnathan’s calm demeanor and experience with dogs made all the difference for Luna. What I also really appreciated was the constant updates he would provide through messages AND pictures of Luna through Rover. I was fully able to enjoy my vacation because I knew Luna was in great hands. When I came back home from vacation, Luna was relaxed and calmly chewing on a bone. That was one more confirmation that it was a great experience for Luna!”
“Shelby did a great job with our baby! We were able to enjoy our trip knowing that our girl was being well taken care of. She sent lots of updates to us showing all of the fun things they were doing. We could see that our pup was enjoying her time with Shelby. She left our house even cleaner than when we left- a nice surprise after a long day of traveling! She also brought in our mail and took out the trash. Just an overall great job!”
“So grateful to Donald for taking such good care of our pup! This was our first time every having a sitter for him, and it was for a full week - we could not have asked for a better experience for our pup (and for us and for our house, too!). Donald was not only great with our anxious clingy pup, but he also kept us updated regularly and put us at ease that all was going smoothly. He took great care of the house too, with attention to all kinds of little details I wouldn't even have thought of. He was also super flexible when we had to make a last-minute change to our timing - he could not have been nicer about it. And of course, the best and most important part is that our dog loved him and will look forward to when we can have him come again!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Curtis Bay
Kemmesha was great with my two kitties! I’m always nervous leaving them with someone new but she made me feel very comfortable, gave timely responses and helped ease my anxiety. I will definitely love to work with her again and will highly recommend her for your pets needs!
I can’t recommend Joey enough, he did an incredible job watching our dog and cat for an entire week while we were away. He took the best care of our animals, and gave us plenty of updates and pictures! There was never a single second we worried while being away - he treated our animals as if they were his own. Thank you so much again!
Jess was excellent! We had a last minute schedule change with another sitter, and Jess kindly jumped in on short notice to help us out. Our dog, Honey, can be slow to warm up with strangers, but between the very warm welcome he gave her at the meet & greet and the daily pictures Jess sent, he was a big fan of her! Definitely will be rebook Jess in the future!
Hannah looked after our dog and cat recently and did an amazing job! She consistently checked in with any questions, gave medication, and sent daily pictures which was really appreciated. When we got home the house was also in perfect condition. She took great care of our house, watered plants, and was very thoughtful about cleaning up. We definitely plan to have her watch our girls again!
Sarah is great!! I would definitely recommend her (and already have recommended her to friends). She stayed in our house and took care of our dog. She sent daily photo and video updates of him, and she took great care of the house while we were gone. She is very communicative. Thank you, Sarah!
Neel was great with my dog Annabelle! I highly recommend his services and highly appreciate him as he kept our place clean, and was very on top of updates and communication! I would like to add he was very flexible with the storm/bad weather on getting Annabelle outside and cared for.
Jordan is amazing! He is a great person, and took such good care of our three dogs! He constantly took them for walks, gave them lots of love, and updated us on how they were doing throughout the day. He was super flexible to help us accommodate our plans. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that our babies were in great hands. We highly recommend him! Rover is very lucky to have a professional like him. Thanks for everything, Jordan!

FAQs for House Sitting - Curtis Bay
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Curtis Bay is $50 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $59 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 4,887 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Curtis Bay. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Curtis Bay walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Curtis Bay maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Curtis Bay 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!
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 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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Curtis Bay. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
