“Kristen is reliable, trustworthy, and prompt. We are very happy with her and so glad we found her. Finding a reliable person on base was the best thing for us. We definitely recommend her!”
“Robert had impeccable communication and was flexible with our schedule. We really appreciated the thorough updates and pictures from each drop-in visit. We would definitely use him again!”
“Emily has provided pet sitting services for my cat Honey a number of times. Honey is a shy kitty and will go into hiding when anyone other than me enters the home. Emily brought treats with her to gain her trust. I feel comfortable leaving now that I know Honey will not only have her physical needs taken care of but also some affection from a sitter she trusts.”
“Tiffany was very sweet, and beyondf helpful! We got multiple pictures everytime that she stopped by! She communicated with me through every step from booking to her last visit with our animal! She was wonderful!”
“Sabine is wonderful! She is so caring, honest and genuinely cares for her pets. She has taken care of my senior animals multiple times and have never had any issues. I would highly recommend her!”
“Victoria was incredible. She kept us so well informed on how our three dogs were doing while she was caring for them. Very detail-oriented and very hands on with our kids. Would recommend her to anyone.”
“Jodie is wonderful!! From her initial pet meet-and-greet, to her check-ins while you’re gone, and her follow through after you return- everything is perfect! Thank you, Jodie, for going out of your way to make my fur child so happy while I’m gone! Jodie deserves more than 5 stars!”
“Aaron did a great job. Helped me out last minute which was appreciated. Was able to operate well without a meet and greet, so he's obviously skilled with dogs. He made sure our outside cat was feed and communicated very well for the duration of his support.”
“Christine was a fantastic sitter for my two kittens! She wrote great status updates and shared lots of cute photos. She clearly loves taking care of pets. Would definitely hire her again and recommend her to a friend.”
“I needed somebody to help me brush my cranky old husky who hates being brushed, and Jenny was great! While I fed Dakota a never-ending stream of treats to distract her, Jenny brushed out a dog-sized pile of fur, undoubtedly saving me hours of vacuuming and picking stray fur out of my food. (husky people know what I mean!) The neighborhood sparrows are now hopping around collecting the escaped fur tumbleweeds to line their nests so I'd say it was a successful drop in visit all around.”
“Liz took great care of my cat and made sure he did not bother the fish haha. He even sat on Liz’s lap, which he does with very few people. I came home to a happy kitty after my trip”
“Miss Catherine is a wonderful dog sitter. I will definitely use her Services again. I really appreciate the pictures and how she tended to my girls. Thank you again miss Catherine”
About: I love snuggles, walks, and spending quality time with all pups! I’ve cared for many friends’ and family members’ dogs over the years, and I’m the kind of person who’s always stopping to say hi to as many dogs as possible everywhere I go. I’m dependable, communicative, and attentive. Whether your pup loves playtime and adventures or prefers naps and quiet company, I adapt to what makes them feel happiest and most comfortable. Expect lots of love, attention, photo updates, and peace of mind while your pet is in my care! Starting August 17 I’ll be unavailable from 7AM-4PM during the week due to my full time job. I have off during the summer until Aug 16 so my schedule is pretty open! Beginning Aug 17, I can be available all day if needed on Sat/Sun and before and after work during the week. I honor your pet’s normal routine and give them lots of attention, affection, and companionship while you’re away. I follow feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, and any other care preferences you have. I also make sure pets get plenty of exercise, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles based on their personality and energy level. I know being away from their owners can sometimes be stressful for pets, so I create a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and cared for. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes and always keep things clean, organized, and secure. I also send regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and doing well!
“JHahna was fantastic with our pup while we were away. We were so grateful she was able to take care of her last minute. Every drop-in visit, she messaged to see if there were any special requests. She made sure Harlee had plenty of water and food and was well taken care of!”
“Leah did a great job with my cats, even being kind enough to sweep after them after they had made a mess while no one was home. Very appreciative of her time and hard work.”
“Michelle did an amazing job taking care of my two boys while I was away. She was on time for every visit, sent lots of great photos, and kept me updated on how they were doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. She even left the sweetest note for me when I returned. It’s not easy finding someone you can truly trust with your fur babies, but Michelle exceeded all my expectations. I will definitely be using her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Meade
We’ve had Olivia do drop in visits with our two dogs twice now so far and she has been amazing! She is very responsive and has been extremely helpful with us learning rover. Our two dogs are usually not the best with new people and are reactive, but she has been absolutely wonderful with them.
I cannot say enough great things about Angela. She took such wonderful care of my two boxers and treated them like family. I got consistent updates and adorable photos that made me feel completely at ease while I was away especially since one of them is disabled. Both pups seemed happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved in every photo shared. Her communication, reliability, and genuine care makes her an absolute 5‑star sitter. Would highly recommend and will book again when needed.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Fort Meade on Rover is $18.19 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 15,777 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fort Meade. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fort Meade stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Fort Meade. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
