“Lida is a gem! She kept my kitty, Shelly, happy and well taken care of. I enjoyed the photos of Shelly, which gave me peace of mind. The house was in perfect order and as clean as a whistle. We will definitely bod again with Lida, given her availability once people find out what s treasure she is!”

About: I've had dogs my whole life. Grew up in a house with 2+ dogs near constantly. All family dogs were 60+ lbs each with the largest being 110lbs. My 75lb dog crossed the rainbow bridge Sept 2025, I am not ready for a dog full time but I do miss the company. I will spoil your dog. I do not care about breed. I am looking for weekends. I work full time, so I am ready to go around noon on Friday and depending on the needs can be around all weekend. Generally I do leave the house during the weekend for a couple hours during the day to do chores and stuff but other than that can be a total home body. If the dog is good on leash I have a great neighborhood to take walks. If you are looking for me to stay at your house over the weekend, I can provide as much potty coverage as you request. If you want me to stay over the week, I do have a day job with my schedule being 7-3. I have a 8ft privacy fence the whole way around my backyard with a dog door. I do not have a crate, but I can use yours if you want your dog crated. I follow your food rules. I used to make hot breakfast/dinner for my dog. I do keep some dog treats in the house but I will check with you if your dog can have that specific treat first and if there are any dietary needs. If you want me to stay in your house, lets write the rules down and I'm happy to do whatever. If you have poor cellphone service, it'd be great to get a wifi password.

“Nicole stayed at our place to watch our cat for almost two weeks and did a fantastic job! She was responsive and checked in regularly, and we came home to a happy cat. Our cat is very social and needs a lot of interaction and playtime, and it gave us peace of mind knowing Nicole was looking after him. Plus she took great care of our house and kept our plants alive. We’ll happily call on her again to take care of our cat when we’re out of town!”

About: Hi! I’m Liz — an animal lover with a flexible remote work schedule and years of experience caring for friends’ and family members’ dogs. I’ve also fostered before, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can count on. I take that trust seriously and always aim to make things stress-free while you’re away — with regular updates, photos, and plenty of care and attention. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Your pup will be in great hands with me. I currently work a hybrid schedule. I work in the office on Wednesdays and Thursdays, and I’m home the rest of the week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I always treat it with the same care and respect as my own. I stick to your pet’s normal routine — walks, meals, and downtime — to keep them comfortable and relaxed. I make sure doors and gates are secure, follow all instructions closely, and leave your home just as I found it. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet’s doing while you’re away.

“Ryan was absolutely great! He pinch-hit for a Rover cancellation at the last minute, and was able to come for a meet & greet the day before sitting for our dog. He and Rory hit it off immediately and pics confirmed how much fun they had. Ryan takes his job seriously and asks lots of questions about routine, food, etc. We would not hesitate to use Ryan's services again. Two thumbs way up!”

About: Hi! My first gift as a baby was a white german shepherd named Pepper that I grew up with and I've been a dog owner ever since. Friends even brought me a stray found on campus at GWU, Wiggles. He was our house mascot. And I've owned and cared for dogs ever since. I started rescuing dogs in 2010 in Oakland. I found forever homes for 13 dogs. Your dog will be safe, made comfortable and well cared for by me. I'm happy to care for senior dogs or puppies and anyone in between. I am attentive. Responsive to them and focused to obey your instructions concerning your fur baby. I want them to be happy while you're away and I want you to be comfortable while they're in my care. Most of all, if anything happens, I know how to respond quickly. My 12yo Weimaraner Gideon passed away during the pandemic. I've been fostering. This just seems like another way for me to play with and care for a new dog until I get another one. I look forward to meeting you and your pet. I'm a professional writer and program developer so my schedule is flexible which makes caring for your dog and its needs really easy. I am able to maintain whatever schedule you've established at home. Your pet will have full run of the house and will be encouraged to make themselves at home. Their crate and food/water will be set up in places where they can be seen and made comfortable.

Karima was very communicative and sent us photos of both pets every day, and kept the house tidy while we were away. We will definitely use Karima again, as we came home to very happy and chill pets who seem to genuinely miss her now that she’s gone!”

“Dee was amazing. I was super nervous leaving my senior dog and two cats for a full week, especially since this was our first time working together, but Dee totally delivered. JP, my dog, was smiling in every single photo, and it was clear he felt safe, cozy, and loved. Even my weirdo, suspicious cats warmed up to her, which honestly says a lot, lol. Dee just has that intuitive energy that animals naturally gravitate toward. She followed my care instructions, kept in touch, and made sure everyone was well fed, loved on, and relaxed. I came home to happy, healthy pets, and that’s really all I could ask for. She gives off the vibe of a passionate, animal loving 20-something who genuinely enjoys what she does. While she’s not buttoned up in that overly corporate way (which, let’s be real, is exactly why I use Rover—to support real people who actually spend time and energy on your pets), the level of care she provides is next level. You’re just not going to get that kind of attentiveness at one of those doggy daycare boxes. Dee is very sweet, incredibly responsible, super responsive, and truly locked in with your pets. I’ll absolutely be booking her again.”

About: Well with 10+ years of veterinary experience, I’m comfortable caring for cats with special needs and medications, anxiety, medical conditions, and unique personalities with patience. Veterinary care is a big part of my daily life. I work as a veterinary technician, so caring for animals, monitoring their needs, and keeping them comfortable is already part of my routine. I provide loving, attentive care in my home or yours, following routines and medications, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and special instructions while keeping pets comfortable.

“Syler took great care of my two dogs. One has low vision problems and the other is super rambunctious. She was very communicative and sent daily pictures. She washed the bedding when one of the dogs became sick, kept a close eye on her, and made sure to let me know that she was doing better. I look forward to using Syler again.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Davidsonville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Davidsonville is $93 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $50 and $146 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 9,852 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Davidsonville. 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 Davidsonville 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 Davidsonville 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 Davidsonville 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 Davidsonville. On Rover:

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% 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.
