“Maria was so wonderful taking care of my 2 cats. My one cat is very shy and difficult to for a connection with, but Maria was very patient with him. Her reports twice a day were not only informative but very amusing, and the pix she shared of my babies were great. I certainly plan on using her services again.”

“As a first time puppy owner, finding the right person to watch your fur baby is nerve wrecking. Riley was amazing!! She provided in-home daycare for our pup and kept up with his routine. She sent pics and videos of him and he seemed so happy. I’ll definitely be booking her again to watch or furry friend.”

“Cheryl was an incredible help with a last minute drop-in. She followed all of our instructions carefully and made sure our two small dogs were well cared for. Her prompt responses and photo updates were such a reassuring bonus. Thank you!”

“Jason was very punctual and responsible with taking care of our two cats. He always sent us pictures and this was reassuring as we were so far away! We will definitely be using Jason again!”

Right now my only priority is to focus on my upcoming school year! Besides that I am free on weekdays and weekends. Day and night! I care for my dogs in my home by providing them with the enrichment they need. Whether that is playing tug of war or treat hide and seek!
“Margaret was wonderful! She visited us to meet Riley and learn her routine before we officially booked her. She kept us up-to-date on her visits and I could tell Riley took to her so easily. I felt so comfortable getting away and knowing our pup was happy and taken care of. I will definitely book Margaret again!”

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.

“Samantha was responsive and did a good job taking care of our shy cats. She made sure they were fed and the litter boxes were kept clean. She provided pictures of their food & water bowls during her visits because the cats were in hiding when she came by, as expected. I would definitely contact Samantha again if we need kitty care.”

“Ryan is fantastic, and I highly recommend him. He came over for a meet in-advance, and said/did a lot to help us feel confident in hiring him. He was prompt, clearly loved our dog, played with her a lot, and took great pics (it helps that we have a gorgeous dog).”

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 been an animal lover my whole life. I had my own dog for 11 years, so I know firsthand what it takes to really care for a pet, especially as they get older. Since my dog lived until 14, senior care and keeping up with medication routines is something I'm very comfortable with, as I had to do for my dog in her last years. I've also looked after family friends' dogs and cats over the years including feeding them, taking them out, making sure they're getting enough playtime and attention. It's always felt less like a job and more like just taking care of someone I love. I'll treat your pet the same way! I lost my dog not too long ago, but taking care of others pet is my way of keeping that love going! I’m currently working part-time with a very flexible schedule the majority of the time! I work from home everyday, except Thursdays. I’m most free Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and the weekends. I have a large yard where your dog can run, explore, and play freely. Since I no longer have a dog of my own, my home and attention are completely focused on your pet during their stay. Dogs are welcome indoors and I treat them like family. They won't be left alone for long periods. I follow each pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules and any medications. I send regular photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: Caring for animals has always come naturally to us, my husband and I have had pets (dogs, cats, hamsters, birds) all our lives — our last adoption of two bonded, senior rescues in 2017 was truly life-changing. Eddie, a gentle yet protective lab mix, and Willie, a spirited and stocky, dachshund mix, helped teach our daughter what unconditional love fully looks like, while reminding our family the special bonds that come from the gift of furry family members. We had seven amazing years with them! Since then we've become our neighborhood's pet sitters for dog's and cats alike - enjoying missed pet cuddles, while support friends who need to be away for a bit. An aspect that really helped us was working with the wonderful trainers at DogWorks in Baltimore, when our good-boys first arrived. It vastly helped them adjust, and gave us the awareness to become more responsive, respectful, and emotionally present caretakers. We still feel care taking starts with listening~ to instructions, but also to pet’s body language, rhythm, and preferences. We’ve cared for senior dogs who needed patience and understanding while they learned to trust again, puppies who have unlimited energy and child-like needs, as well as pets with medical and emotional needs. Now that we're pet empty-nesters, and experience and trust with friends and family's pets, we wanted to open our home to support a broader range of family's who could use one-on-one care like we did. We have a fully fenced in quarter-acre back yard, a pet-friendly house, and a seven year old daughter who wants to be a Vet when she grows up :). I’m currently working a hybrid schedule, while my husband, Bobby, is fully remote working at home. (Even when we're in a meeting we've even left the Pet Channel or the cartoon Bluey (since its produced only in colors dogs can see!) streaming for additional comfort ;) It's rewarding to have flexible schedule ensuring pets are rarely (if ever) be left alone. Weekends and holidays are available too, especially if you know if advance for time to plan ahead, please just ask :) We treat every pet as if they were our own!~ Safe Environment: Our home is smoke-free, pet-proofed, and has a securely fenced yard. Health & Comfort: We follow your instructions exactly, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or training routines. Supervision: We never leave visiting pets outside unattended. Updates: Expect photo and message updates so you know your furry friend is happy and safe.
Delight pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jason met my sweet girl at the end of her life. I was having surgery and my Giant Schnauzer couldn’t stand on her own. A vet had suggested Rover to me, and I picked Jason because of the number of satisfied customers (and because he looked strong enough to lift my dog by her “”Help ‘ em Up” harness). I am glad I did. I will keep his information for the next time I adopt a pup. He is caring and compassionate, and I am grateful for the loving care he showed my Jessie.
We had a great experience with our sitter! Despite inclement snow weather, she was dependable and showed up as scheduled, which we truly appreciated. She followed all of our instructions carefully and took excellent care of both of our dogs. It was such a relief knowing they were in reliable hands. The best part of my day was receiving the videos and photos. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to others. This was my first time using this service and she walked me through it as well.
