“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.”

About: I am a local environmental science student with extensive experience in professional pet and house sitting. Having grown up with dogs and cats, I have provided dependable care for repeat clients since the age of 12. I would welcome the opportunity to care for your animals and can provide references upon request. I am a local college student with a flexible schedule, allowing me to commit to various shifts. I am generally available to work during evenings and on weekends. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my availability aligns with your current needs. Caring for my own two dogs led me to discover a passion for working with animals, and I am now seeking opportunities to gain professional experience as I pursue a career in this field. To ensure both you and your pets are comfortable, I typically offer a pre-visit to meet in person. This allows us to discuss your specific care instructions and ensures you are confident in my services as a caretaker.

About: Hi there! 👋 After taking a two-year break to settle into a new area about an hour away, I’m excited to be reactivating my Rover profile! During that time, my family and I went through some changes — we said goodbye to our two beloved dogs and recently welcomed a playful new puppy who’s now 6 months old. I’m looking forward to socializing him while providing loving, reliable care for other families’ pets - whether you need help with walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or anything in between. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet and care for your pups. Let’s chat and see how I can help make your days a little easier and your pets a lot happier! I am a stay at home mom and dog mom with a lot of mouths to feed! I am on Rover for not only an income but because I am readily available most days! We would love the opportunity to snuggle your fur babies :) I care for your animals as if they are my own. Love and plenty of play time if that’s what they are into. If they want to be a potato we have plenty of couches!

“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!”

“Hannah was fabulous. Because I had a sick kitty, she came over twice to go over his medication so she was comfortable medicating Tribble. Unfortunately, I had to say goodbye to Tribble (Rainbow Bridge) the day before I was to leave on vacation. She was great being flexible and sympathetic. My two remaining babies were well cared for. Hannah followed my "directions" perfectly and sent as many pix of my babies that I wanted. She even took pix of my shy baby under the bed where he was hiding! I would highly recommend Hannah for your pet sitter.”

“Lindsay S. saved the day! She came over on only 2 days notice & on one of the hottest days of the year. We had to keep our dog inside; Lindsay S. was prompt in arriving at his "dinnertime" to let him out, feed him & keep him company for the drop-in visit. She took great care with him & then sent photos on her own accord. That put our minds at ease until we could get home a few hours later. Well worth the (very affordable) fee & we will reach out to her again in the future, for sure! Thanks Lindsay S.!”

“We appreciated Lora's calm demeanor and care for our Heidi. She took time to schedule us for a meet-and-greet so she and Heidi could get acquainted and so she and we could discuss care needs.”

“Kristen is absolutely wonderful and went above and beyond for our 3 cats while we were away. We look forward to using Kristen again multiple times in the future!!”

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.

“Aye is thorough and thoughtful with her check ins. Knowing she was checking on my sick senior kitty while we were away made our trip so much more enjoyable.”

Melissa L.

“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 have always had all kinds of dogs around me in my family since I was very young and have had lots of experience handling reactive dogs I just graduated from high school and am looking for a few gigs to fill my summer break before college so my schedule is very wide open and flexible I have a very friendly puppy that will happily play all day long with any dog and am happy to do any crate training that a dog needs

“Amazing. This was my first time using the service and I was incredibly nervous. She made it seamless.”

Shannon A.

“Noah came to our house and checked on our two dogs three times! He was respectful of our home, and so sweet to them, and took amazing care of them and gave them tons of love and attention. He was on time, in no rush, and fulfilled all of my requests and more. Noah was so friendly and kind—We would 100% have him care for our dogs again!”

Raia W.

“They were extremely responsive and took such good care of our dog while we were gone! Greatly appreciate what they did for us during our trip!”

About: I grew up with multiple pets, including two cats in my childhood and a wonderful dog that I helped care for in her seniority, so I've been familiar with animals all my life. Currently, I own and aided in training a high-maintenance, special needs German Shepherd. He's a sweetheart, but he's definitely a commitment! Given his intensely anxious nature, he needs a patient hand to calm him often. He's also epileptic, so I am well practiced in attentiveness, administering medication, following specialized meal plans and the like if needed. I have also done pet and house sitting on many occasions, particularly for family and friends but for a wide variety of pets– from little dogs that didn't even reach my knee, to my own Shepherd, who stands just about as tall as my hip. I've house kept for up to a week, entertaining young dogs and going on daily walks, etc. I am always happy to be introduced to new little ones and have a high pain tolerance when it comes to their claws, so I don't mind when they get a bit rowdy, either! High energy or low, I will gladly make time for any fluffy friends who need a watchful eye. I am currently on track to earn my Associates in the Arts from Carroll Community College, before transferring to Towson University, about a 45 minute commute from my home. My class schedules usually entail that I'm home fairly early in the afternoon, and though I am also working, it will ideally be no more than three days a week at any given time, leaving plenty of room for me to take on pet care! Even busy as a bee, I'll always make time for them where I can. Though my own home may not be an ideal place for another pet to spend nights due to my Shepherd's nervousness, I will gladly offer my time to visit others. I have previously found myself curled up on a couch with a pet I was taking care of overnight, or even falling asleep on the floor with them. So long as their pet parents are happy for me to do so, I will gladly stay wherever is most comfortable for the pet involved, and take food/water/sleeping arrangements where they are best suited. I also have a fair sense of direction, so I'm perfectly content on walks in unfamiliar places, especially when I have friendly doggos with me!

About: I've taken care of cats and dogs for the past 30 years. In the past 10 years have enjoyed taking care of my senior Beagles. I'm off for the summer so just about any day works! In the fall, my schedule will allow Mon- Fri after 3pm. Can't wait to help out! I can help you in your home with feeding, walking and playing with your pet. If your pet just needs snuggles, I'm there for it.
