“She was great, reliable and was very flexible and went beyond what I asked her to do as we got a new pet parrot thrown in with our two cats. I would definitely book her again!”
“Emily C. is simply put the best of the best. She is diligent, timely, and considerate, and takes great care of our two cats. It gives me a great deal of peace of mind when we are out of town, knowing our furry family are in such great hands.”
“Thanks for checking in on Katy. We loved the backyard video. We were able to enjoy a day in NYC knowing she was fed and cared for . All instructions were followed to a T. You're at the top of our list for daycare. We know Katy is a bit fearful and wary of strangers. Thanks for your pleasant and caring manner. See you again.”
“Sabine did an amazing job caring for my kitty, Ruby, during a 3 day trip. She texted me throughout and left very thorough summaries after each visit. The best part was that Ruby took to Sabine so quickly! Sabine seems to have a energy that animals seem to love, even my shy girl Ruby. I would definitely ask Sabine to watch after Ruby again in the future.”
“Ashley is very caring and dependable. Even though I was further out than she normally serves, she was willing to take care of my sweet girl until I was able to find someone who lived closer to me, and was able to meet my needs. I appreciate her empathy and caring attitude. I hope Rover is aware of what an asset they have in Ashley. Thank you again, Ashley.”
“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!”
“Ayanna was great!!! Our puppers adored her! We consider ourselves very picky pawrents and Ayanna did everything we asked her to do. Would definitely recommend her for our future visits!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Jodie is spectacular, and kept our pet very happy while we were away. We would give her our highest recommendations and she’ll be our first choice for our next vacation.”

“Jennie was amazing with our three dogs! We had to add another drop in visit the day before our trip unexpectedly and she was happy to accommodate with no issues. Highly recommend and looking forward to rebooking in the future.”
“JHahna is great with my Marley. She is always on time, communicates well and follows his care instructions to a T. It feels really good to find a trustworthy and reliable sitter. Marley also loves her doggy which is an extra bonus.”
“Although I ended up having to cancel my trip so Ashley/Olivia didn’t end up doing the drop in visits, Olivia was great at the drop-in visit I scheduled before our trip! My chinchillas took to her immediately. Gus, our fiestiest boy, happily accepted cheek scritches from her and another one of my chins even let her pick him up :) That says a lot about how she interacts with animals because as prey animals, trust doesn’t come easily to chinchillas. She also asked a lot of important questions about their care which I appreciated. She was super responsive and flexible about when I came to pick up my key from her. I would feel at ease with her taking care of my pets the next time I need care for them!”
About: Whether you're looking for someone to help get that daily exercise in, to assist in taking them out for their potty breaks, or just be around to provide the socialization and care that your pup craves, I would love to provide that time to tend to your pup's needs. I have years of experience with many different breeds, and have assisted with leash training and behavioral training. As a fellow person with three pups and a cat (Shelties, named Moose, Eevee, Zora, and Zuko (cat) ) of my own, I understand how important it is to invest trust with someone for personable care over your companion. I can ensure your pup is my top priority for you and your family. Let me provide the peace of mind that you deserve, and schedule all of your pups service needs today. I work near home and my wife works from home. Your pets will always be cared for and we have years of experience with pets. Our property is in a great area and we have the space to accommodate. We live in a quiet neighborhood with helpful neighbors and great dog parks nearby.
About: Hi, I’m Kelly! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud pet mom who understands that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, a little extra attention during a drop-in visit, or some calm companionship while you’re away, I’m here to provide reliable and loving care. I’m a swim trainer at the Canine Fitness Center in Crownsville, where I have the opportunity to work with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I have extensive experience caring for elderly dogs, injured dogs needing extra patience and attention, young puppies learning the ropes, and active dogs who are simply there to have fun and stay healthy. I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual needs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. At home, I have my own furry crew: my 5-year-old Labrador Retriever, Scorchy Paws, and my two cats, Pete (11) and Tommy (10). They’ve taught me that every pet has their own quirks, routines, and ways of showing love. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll treat your animals with the same care, patience, and affection that I give my own. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending my time around animals and creating a schedule that allows me to give them the attention they deserve. I’m currently working part time, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with pets in my care. I’m typically available Sundays and Mondays, along with one additional weekday that varies depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that fits their needs and their pet’s routine. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, playtime, feeding routines, or simply providing companionship while you’re away, I love being able to make pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. For drop-in visits, I’m happy to help with meals, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and giving them the attention they need while you’re away. For walks, I’ll make sure they get exercise, enrichment, and a chance to enjoy some time outside. I’ll always take the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and any specific care instructions you have. I know pets feel most comfortable when their routine stays familiar, so my goal is to provide dependable care while giving you peace of mind that they’re being looked after.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fort Meade
Jusskayy is a sweetheart! She accommodated me on short notice without a prior meet and greet and I am sooo thankful. She asked all the right questions prior to arrival and it was wonderful. Made me think of things I totally forgot to inform her about. She went over, spend time with my pup and left everything just as she got it. She is a definite top 5 on my sitters to use again!
Sara took excellent care of our cat! I would highly recommend her. She was prompt, professional, and communicative. We really enjoyed her attention to detail in writing the daily notes & in the photos she shared. We missed our fur baby but her personal notes made it easier knowing she was being well taken care of. Will definitely be rebooking in the future.
We couldn’t be happier with Sabine’s care for our miniature Goldendoodle. My Indiana is an anxious pup who requires a bit of patience and we were very pleased with all of the effort, communication and pictures that were provided while we were out of town! 10/10 would definitely book with her again!
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.

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 September 2026, there are 15,764 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.
