I will treat yours like my very own 🐕🦺🐾🖤 I work full time as a vet tech at a veterinary hospital in either the morning or evening! I can be very flexible with my schedule and have no problem stopping by before and after work. if your pet has to stay at my home, I have a fenced in back yard and two very playful pups that would love to meet new friends! When going to clients homes, I am great at following feeding instructions, walking & playing with your pup!

“Lonnie handled my high energy big dogs wonderfully. He clearly cared about their health and well being, which means a lot to my husband and me when we put our babies in someone else's care. Thanks Lonnie, we'll see you next time!”
About: I have owned dogs all my life all shapes and sizes. I have been trained and volunteer for MDSPCA and the Baltimore Humane Society. I believe it’s important that all dog’s feel loved and taken care of and are as much a family member as anyone else. I know how important interactive play is and enrichment. Keeping a dog in their own environment is best for their well being. Kennels can be very noisy and stressful to the average dog. I know as a pet owner myself having your dog with a trusted person is critical. I also have a medical background so I would be ready for any emergency., if it should arise. I have no Problem giving medication to your pet if needed I am recently retired and I am looking forward to devoting my time to caring for dogs. My schedule is very flexible and ready to start. I have a fenced in yard and have cared for dogs of all sizes. I make sure they are safe and loved and having fun..
About: I am a lover of all animals and will treat yours like my own. I was a Dog Trainer at Petsmart for 3 years. I have two dogs, two horses, and a cat of my own. We live on a farm that opens up to the woods so we love to exercise and we also love to hit the trails at Solider's Delight or the Westminster pond. All sizes and breeds are welcome. If they need special care or medication, I am also able to assist with that. If there's any other pets in the house, I am knowledgeable with most. You’re welcome to call and check in at any time, and you’ll receive text or email updates daily. I hope you will consider me in your search to find someone to care for your pet family. I work full time, but happy to help your family out with the furry, feathery, or scaling member of the family just like my own. Just like my own! I try to stay as organized as possible, so a list to go off of is preferred! I'm happy to spend time caring for your pet.
About: I have over two years of professional kennel experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and personalities. I'm skilled with puppies, seniors, medication routines, and building trust with shy or anxious animals. Every pet I meet gets the same love and attention I give my own. I'm available throughout the day for walks, playtime, and companionship. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life, so it feels completely natural to make time for your pets, too. I keep pets safe, comfortable, and cared for like they're my own. I stick to your routines, keep a close eye on details, and make sure everyone feels at ease.
“Very communicative and kept dogs busy during his stay. My crew is high energy and everyone was properly tuckered out when we returned home. Would recommend and plan on booking again.”
“Bronte was WONDERFUL. We had a bit of a situation with a raccoon and our dog while outside in our fenced yard. Raccoon was looking to have our dog as a meal but Bronte was able to get the dog inside safely and alerted us immediately. Bronte was very patient and loving with our dog, will definitely call upon her again.”
“Tracie was able to help us at the last minute as we had to go out of town for a funeral. She was very pleasant and provided feedback and photos throughout the trip. We returned to two happy dogs and a lovely boiquet of flowers to bright our day after a solemn couple of days away. Very sweet!”
About: I've been taking care of my own pets since I was eight years old. Currently I take care of my bichon and bichon poodle in my home. I have pet sat Maine Coon cats, labrador retrievers, golden retrievers, basset hounds, beagles, and german shepherds. Additionally, I have experience that ranges from puppy care to senior care. I am more than happy to do a phone call or meet in person so we can get to know each other, or stop by to meet the pups before I stay with them :) I'm working part-time right now, so I will have plenty of time for your pets! I am super flexible and don't mind getting up early/leaving late. In your home, I am more than happy to accomodate the routines for your dog and the routines of your household. It's important to me to keep the dogs safe, utilizing baby gates, shutting doors/cabinets, and having fences as needed.

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 Deep Run 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 Deep Run 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 Deep Run 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.

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.
