About: Hi guys! My name is Emily, I’m a 27 year old who loves animals. I really like to read, go to concerts with my friends, and spend time with my family. I’ve been house sitting and pup sitting for over 10 years now. My availability is very open at the moment considering I’m doing school virtually. Please feel free to contact me anytime for all of your dog, cat, fish, bird, turtle, hamster, cow, horse, etc needs! Look forward to hearing from you! I currently am working part time and doing school virtually so I have a very flexible schedule that would allow me plenty of time to help care for your babies! I’ve had 10 plus years experience with pet sitting so have had to handle many different situations that have made me a better sitter. I’m prepared for anything and love these pets as my own!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. My family has also fostered puppies for the past 5–6 years, which has given me experience with young dogs, routines, patience, and providing a safe, loving environment. Friends and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets like they’re my own. I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to your pets before starting my full-time role in July. Once I begin, I’ll only be in office two days a week, so I’ll still have lots of availability. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate a variety of schedules and care needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and one friendly small dog who loves making new friends. Whether caring for your dog in my home or yours, I’ll make sure they feel loved, safe, active, and comfortable. I enjoy long walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention and care while you’re away.
“Jamie was on time, and clearly loved the animals (and they loved her) - she was conscientious and kind, and she did everything we asked. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Jerad did an awesome job with Samson. Followed the instructions perfectly and was a great friend to our little guy. Took him on walks and sent lots of updates. Would definitely recommend!”

“Lena is absolutely awesome. We are so grateful to have found Lena and she did a wonderful job pet sitting and house sitting. Her communication is great, and she kept us posted with thoughtful updates. We were extremely comfortable and confident while out of the country.”

“Karen took wonderful care of our dogs, Sam and Tito, for a full week while we were on vacation. She was incredibly responsive, always sending updates and photos when we asked, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our boys were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She also left our home in perfect condition, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely book with Karen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter!”
“Faith is a fantastic petsitter! We were out of town for 8 days and didn't have to worry about a thing back home. It was wonderful to find a caring person who could spend this much time with our pets. Boarding can be so stressful on our big dogs, but Faith was able to do overnights and wasn't intimidated by our Dobermans in the slightest. She was a perfect fit, and we were so blessed to find her on Rover. It was our first experience with the service platform being new to Southern Maryland, but we will be repeat customers for sure.”

“Vanessa was fantastic to work with. She arrived promptly, kept me updated on my pup Morgan with pics and notes. I’m felt very comfortable having Vanessa house/dog sit. Would highly recommend here. Patty”

I’m experienced with feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure every pet gets the love and attention they deserve.

About: As a pre-vet student with hands-on experience from a dog hotel and lifetime of pet care, I offer more than just sitting. I'm skilled in senior care and puppy training basics, and my experience breeding crested geckos and caring for birds and cats gives me a deep understanding of diverse animal needs. I'm dedicated to providing informed, attentive care. Being a UMD student allows me to provide your dog with consistent, attentive walks throughout the day. I'm passionate about giving them the exercise and companionship they deserve, right here on campus. Whether in my home or yours, pet safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean and secure environment, free from hazards. I strictly adhere to all feeding and medication instructions, and I'm vigilant about monitoring pets for any signs of distress. When walking, I use a secure leash and harness, remain aware of surroundings, and avoid busy roads. I prioritize building trust with both pets and owners through clear communication, reliability, and genuine affection. I understand the importance of routine, and I strive to minimize stress by maintaining consistency. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing a loving and safe environment
About: I’ve owned 5 dogs through my life & have always loved caring for others’ pets as well. Being around animals is my happy place 🥰 I work part time on a charter boat & would love something besides gardening to keep me busy during the week. Also trying to save up for an Rv to travel I’ve been around all types of different kinds of dogs and know how to deal with different personalities and needs ❤️ from weeks old to golden days I love them all

Galesville pet parents share their Rover experiences
Kylee took good care of our 22 lb. dog Teri for the 2 days we were away. The pictures she sent show Teri being her normal self. Kylee communicated with me by text on a regular basis. Most texts included a picture of Teri which was very nice. Kylee confirmed the start and end time, both when I booked her stay and then again on the day she started and the day she finished.
