“This was our second time having Eileen take care of our kitties. She does great with our special needs cat and our new cat warmed up to her right away. She makes sure they are well taken care of and spends time with them for play too!”

“Hannah took wonderful care of my 2 furry family members. I received a complete report with photos for each visit. When I arrived home both dogs were happy and relaxed. I will definitely call Hannah again!”

About: Hi! I am new to Rover! I am 24 and have taken care of dogs my whole life! Growing up, we always had at least 2-4 dogs in our home at all times, all different breeds and sizes. We treat dogs like children in my family :) I work a hybrid job in office Monday-Wednesday so my availability is mainly Thursday-Sunday. Week days I am available to do visits throughout the day and weekends my availability is very open. I am very good at following directions and I can ensure I will keep your pets safe and do anything I can to make this experience as comfortable as possible!

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 8 years now with plenty of experience with most breeds, ages, and personalities! Coming from a family with 5 dogs, I have plenty of experience with handling multiple dogs schedules, feeding times, and medications. I also have plenty of experience with puppies, as well as senior dogs! I walk about 4-5 miles daily, so I am always active and ready to play with your pup! I have a true passion and love for dogs and want to share that to help others! :) I am currently working part time at a restaurant and med spa, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m able to travel and do overnight stays! I have a fenced in backyard with one mini dachshund at home. I am able to come to your house or bring a dog to me!
“This is my first time using Rover and Ashley has been fantastic to work with. We have a young puppy and a shy adult dog and we need weekly visits. Ashley has been helpful and supportive working out a schedule, knowing it will evolve as the puppy gets older. She's responsive, flexible, and has given us good ideas on how these visits can meet the needs of both dogs and keep them happy and comfortable.”

“Kristen was great!!! She arrived each day at our requested drop in times and followed all feeding and medication directions perfectly. She dilligently cleaned up their litter boxes, wet pee pads, and stray litter. She even took out the trash and washed up their feeding bowls. She also put out food for a stray that sometimes drops by. I would definitely request Kristen again. Cheri”

“Thank you again Jess! My boys (cats) are so well cared for when you visit. And I am assured of my home being safe in your hands as well. Thank you so much for your excellent service and care.”

“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.”

“Liz did a fantastic job watching our two cats. They were both well taken care of and very happy when we came home. Liz kept in communication with us throughout our time away and was very nice to work with. We'll absolutely use her to watch our boys again in the future.”

“Bobby was great with our two dogs! I'm an anxious dog momma who leaves a lot of instructions and wants a lot of communication and Bobby helped me feel at ease. He quickly responded to things and sent great photos. He was also more than willing to accommodate our not set in stone plans as we watched the weather. He was willing to do extra visits or less visits depending on our need. I trust him with our dogs!”

About: I have been dog sitting for neighbors/family friends and people in my home town community since I was in college. I love all dogs like they are my own and do my best to spend as much time as I can with the dogs while their beloved family is away. I have cared for dogs of all ages including puppies and senior dogs that no longer have eye site. I also have experience walking large dogs including an Alaskan Malamute, as well as walking more than one dog at a time. I work full time as a physical therapist and sometimes have longer days but will make it back for lunch time potty breaks. I will take your dog on multiple walks while you enjoy time away. I work full time as a physical therapist. I do have 2 longer days but will be able to make it over for lunch time potty breaks and walks before and after work :) I will watch your dog when letting them out at your home if there is a fence, if not I will walk them as much as necessary.
About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors dogs for as long as I can remember. I also have a loving dog of my own therefore making me a great sitter for you and your pets! I have also been pet sitting through facebook this summer which has given me lots of experience. :) I’m a rising sophomore at JMU and am home for the summer looking for any pet sitting jobs! I have an extremely flexible schedule and can work weekdays as well as weekends. I would feed them, play with them, make sure they stay out of trouble, and occasionally reward them with treats! I would also take them outside to use the bathroom frequently as well as long walks or playing :)
About: I am a compassionate individual who takes pride in caring for any pet. I pay extra attention to their needs, and how they are handled. I am flexible because I am home from college for the summer. I do not have many other commitments, other than a few set vacations. I care for pets the way I am instructed to, because I do not want to overstep any important boundaries. Pets are important to me.
“Casie was patient with my rambunctious kitten and compassionate toward my older cat. She also made sure to document and update me daily. Her hard work allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation. I hope to work with her again for my next vacation.”

Eldersburg pet parents share their Rover experiences
Moriah was truly a god send! Our dog is very protective of our home and the people in it. We were afraid we wouldn’t be able to go on our vacation this year because of our dog’s behavior. Moriah knew how to handle our situation with care and discipline with our dog. She sent pictures and updates every day. With each day our dog feel in love with her. I would recommend Moriah to anyone looking for a not just a dog sitter but a dog whisperer! ~Angel
