Cheryl was fantastic. She made me feel at ease while I was away. She sent me photos of my dog and answered all my annoying questions. I will 100% book with her again. She even agreed to watch my crazy dog again!

If you’re looking for a great pet/house sitter, Riley is your person. Riley took great care of my pup and fish, checked in daily with me, sent photos and provided daily walks each day. At the end of the stay, Riley summarized Toby’s week, including highlights and household things she did on a sheet of paper. Riley is very reliable and I’ll definitely book her again in the future.

Bronte is amazing! Our dog absolutely loved her and they became instant friends. She even brought him a Bully Stick when she came (yes, she asked me for permission first!) Our dog is big and can be a little overbearing but she handled him perfectly. And our house was in perfect condition when we returned. Will DEFINITELY be rebooking! Thanks, Bronte!!!

Ember was absolutely fantastic with our Husky. She played with him, went out of her way to make him frozen Kings, and even BRUSHED him which is a whole chore for husky owners? She made us feel at ease while we were away and helped around the house while we were gone - took out the trash on trash day, gathered/sorted our mail, and went above and beyond washing towels and sheets. We were very appreciative of Ember and will book again!

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’ve taken care of many different breeds through out my life. My mom worked for the state of South Carolina rescuing all kinds of four legged babies, some she got to bring home!! My dad rescued pitbulls from dog fighting and abusive homes, we had 13 pitbulls at once!! I loved every second of it, he taught me from a young age that animals have feelings like people and some animals suffer trauma just like people and because of that, those are the ones that need extra love. Ever since then I followed him around for every feeding, every walk, every training. I’m unable to have to have animals in my new home and I miss them a lot so I’d love the opportunity to care for your fur babies as if they were my own Currently I do have a full time job Monday -Friday but I am free in the evenings and on weekends. I also have all national holidays off I can’t care for pets in my home due to my roommates allergies however I’m very neat, I’m very respectful of others spaces, and love a schedule/routine so you have a “scary” list of care needs for your pet then I’m a perfect fit!

Julian was great! He was very communicative throughout the entire process. We had him stay at our home for a week, taking care of our elderly chihuahua and our cat. He also took care of things like getting the mail and watering a few plants. He clearly LOVES animals and cared for our fur kids a great deal. We received daily updates from him and appreciated his attention to detail. We will definitely book with Julian again! Five Stars!

About: I've owned my dog, Beaux, for, 2 years. Prior to that I'd dog sit my neighbors and family pets quite often. This is where my love of dogs came from. Whether it is going on walks, play time, and hanging out I will take care of your dogs as if they were my own. Additionally, I work with dogs that love to pull and help them to minimize pulling. Working with my dog to minimize those behaviors is something I've enjoyed doing. I work from home and my schedule is fairly loose throughout the day. I set aside time for my dog during the day for walks and playtime. My yard is not fenced, but there is ample space behind my house for walking and playing. There's a huge common grass area that is perfect for dogs.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with a genuine passion for caring for animals. I grew up loving our family Weimaraner named Shadow and later owned a sassy Morkie named Ace, who brought so much personality and joy into my life. While I don’t have a dog of my own right now, I truly miss that companionship and love being able to share that care with other dogs. I work in healthcare, so being attentive, responsible, and safety-focused comes naturally to me; these skills and qualities I will bring to every pet and family encounter. I have spent my career working with children so I am naturally a very calm and patient person. I look forward to meeting your family and fur bestie! As a working mom, I’m available on evenings and weekends, and I’m committed to making sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog like family making sure to providing updates, attention, and lots of love every step of the way. I will make sure my care is tailored to your fur bestie’s needs and their routine.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for 13 years and have 2 dogs of my own. I’ve rescued stray dogs off the street before and put them in a safe environment. I was once very active in helping animal shelter. A close friend of mine is a Veterinarian and had asked me to dog sit for her when she traveled, it was a pleasure to handle 5 dogs at a time at her house. I enjoy taking walks in nature with dogs. I have plenty of time to play with your dog and take them on walks. My schedule is open daily and weekly routine as well once established. I love to give dog treats and play ball with them. Taking them on long walks. I can also give them a lot of petting for attention. I will take pictures for updates on their activity.

Kate was excellent! We booked her for an overnight stay for our (in our house) - to keep him company since he has a little separation anxiety. She was very responsive in our communication and with the our pups needs. Our boy is sometimes shy with new people but he took to her right away and he even hung next to her while we did our initial meet up. She catered to him (walks, waters, and lots of cuddles) while she stayed and she left the house as she found it and was very respectful! Highly recommended!

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, starting with my own growing up and continuing by helping friends with their pets. People trust me because I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. I make sure each pet sticks to their usual routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and happy to care for pets of all ages, including those who may need a little extra attention or a slower pace. I am a student-athlete working part-time, so I keep a structured schedule. I am usually free in the afternoons and evenings, which allows pet care to fit perfectly in my schedule. I enjoy using that time to stay active as well as care for pets, whether that’s walks, check-ins, or keeping them company! I am reliable and make sure each pet I care for receives the attention and care they deserve! Since I live on campus, I care for pets in my clients’ homes so they can stay comfortable and keep their usual routine. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, and any specific needs, and make sure they get plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m reliable and easy to count on!

Julian did a great job with both my 100 lb dogs and my 17 year old cat! Julian is very responsive and a good communicator and he has a pleasant upbeat attitude. He was careful about giving medication to two of my pets, asking for clarification when needed. I recommend Julian as an excellent pet sitter.

Riley was a breath of relief for us. Was very attentive to Zeus and our concerns. Was exceptional at enriching Zeus life. Took him for car rides and social events. Helped us when he was having ear pain the Sunday we were to leave. She connected with our vet to get him in and feeling better. Left a clean house and wrote a beautiful synopsis of her stay and how Zeus did. I highly recommend Riley. She was here for two weeks while we were away overseas.

Kaye was incredible. She stayed at our place over the Christmas holiday while we were out of the country, and watched over our dog & my mom’s dog as she was also traveling with us. This was an unusual situation because the dogs do not ordinarily live together - Kaye was magnificent at both navigating the little tensions that arose between them, and at keeping us posted about the every-day goings on and how she was handling it. We got updates routinely, and she really went above and beyond in terms of taking care of the house while we were away. Some choice words I would attribute to Kaye: trustworthy, responsive, and thoughtful. Will definitely be hoping Kaye is available the next time we have our-of-town plans!

I was away for 10 days, Liz was incredibly respectful of my space and took amazing care of my Layla making sure she was fed, snuggled, and entertained. Layla never does well with new people but somehow Liz’s amazing presence was an exception. When I got home, she had fully cleaned the apartment making it look as though I never left, if not better than when I left it. She made sure to keep me updated with EVERYTHING, sending me pictures and videos so I knew Layla was doing good. She also responded very quickly every time which lifted all my stress off of me as it was my first time leaving my apartment in the hands of a sitter. As a first timer on Rover, Liz well exceeded my expectations and I will definitely choose her in the future when I go on more trips!
