About: I have worked as a vet tech for 4 years. Helped medicate senior pets, have worked in a pet hotel. I have experience with dog walking/bathing. I work between 8am-4:30pm from Monday-Friday. Off on Weekends if you need a pet sitter or for me to come by and check on/walk you pet. If I come to your house, would love a run down about your pet and what to expect or if there is anything I need to do at a certain time such as medicate.
“It was our first time trying the rover app and we weren’t sure if someone will be able to look after our pets given the busy Christmas season. Thankfully we found Rebecca! Kuma and Kitty seemed to warm up to her right away. She was communicative. Will definitely book again 👍🏻”
“Beth took care of our 2 cats & home and she was simply awesome! She communicated with us throughout the process and always let us know what is happening. Beth sent us plenty of pictures and as-it-happened updates during her visits and never gave us any reasons to worry. We highly recommend Beth and would gladly work with her again. Five+ stars for this one!”
About: I have been house/pet sitting since I worked at a veterinary hospital while in college. I am a nurse at school during the day with great availability! Summers, holidays,weekends and evenings. Again I am a nurse at school during the day so my best hours are afternoons, evenings, summer, weekends and holidays. I am also available to sit at my home. I have a secure fenced yard within a great neighborhood if your dog/dogs come to me. I am comfortable and confident with all shapes and sizes and breeds of pets.
“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.”
About: Hi! My name is Jessica, I’m 20 years old and a third-year student at Towson University. I’ve been pet-sitting regularly since I was 14 and have experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, puppies, birds, tortoises, horses, and other farm animals. Over the years, I’ve provided pet and house-sitting services both locally and while traveling, including overnight stays in Maryland and other states. I’ve also fostered puppies, which gave me plenty of hands-on experience with younger dogs and the extra attention, patience, and cleanup that comes with them! My experience includes dog walking, drop-in visits, cat sitting, feeding, administering medication, cleaning up accidents, overnight care, and making sure pets get plenty of attention and companionship while their owners are away. I’m comfortable adapting to different routines, personalities, sizes, and care needs. I’m also an equestrian and have years of experience riding and caring for horses. I’ve volunteered at The Big Purple Barn in Bowie and Promise Landing Farm in Upper Marlboro, where my responsibilities included feeding, grooming, mucking stalls, turnout, and general barn care. Because of that experience, I’m also comfortable with farm-sitting and caring for animals beyond traditional household pets. I genuinely love working with animals and understand how important it is to have someone reliable and attentive caring for them while you’re away. I’m currently based in the Towson/Baltimore area, and also spend some time in DC/Central MD on my weekends. :) I have a super flexible schedule, with classes only on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets and help make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for! 🐾 I’m currently a college student who only has classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I have a lot of flexibility and free time to care for your pet(s) throughout the week, during the weekend, and even after my classes. I can easily feed, walk, clean, and care for dogs along with caring for cats; feeding them, cleaning the litterbox, playing with them, and anything of the sort. I have a keen eye for detail and am very particular, so I heavily prioritize specific details and notes left by pet parents!
“Justine was great, good communication and she came and did a meet and greet with my cat Ava before my trip. She provided updates and photos for all the visits. I highly recommend her as a sitter”
“We booked Miranda for a drop-in, and she was amazing. Punctual, played with our pup, and sent us lots of pictures. We will definitely trust Miranda with our pup again in the future.”
About: Hi everyone! I’m a vet tech by day and have been in for about 7 years. I love all fur babies and would love to meet your babies. I’m currently working at a veterinary radiation clinic in Annapolis. I have worked at an Emergency Room for animals in Columbia. I do work from 8am to 1pm but am sometime off early. I will take care of your babies as if they were my own. I understand that our fur babies mean a lot to us and that they are family.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover living in Severn with my two spoiled cats. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets while you're away. I have hands-on experience caring for cats and love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having a companion nearby, I'm happy to provide attentive, loving care tailored to their needs. For cats, I understand the importance of respecting their routines, providing enrichment, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! My current work schedule has me in the office 7am - 3:30pm. I'm available Monday - Friday anytime after 4pm, and am available overnight. Saturdays, Sundays & holidays are flexible! I can easily keep your dog separate from my two cats if needed. There is a (unfenced) yard that backs into the woods. My house is tucked away in a lovely neighborhood with sidewalks, perfect to walk your pup.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was young, I love dogs. I enjoy meeting their different personality traits and getting to know them. Dogs make my heart melt. I will take care of your dogs as though they are my own because i know the fear that comes associated since I’ve kept my dog with others myself. I have a pitbull and a chihuahua as well as 2 cats so I love any size, any attitude. They’re all perfect lovable creatures & I really enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them or even just laying with them and cuddling. My dogs are my best friends and I would like to make your dogs the same way. They need lots of love attention and affection and I’m willing to provide that when you aren’t able to! I’m currently in school for social work so I have a lot of extra time on my hands, I love filling it with our furry friends. I understand all methods of caretaking when it comes to our pets. If your dog is a jumper, I’ll always watch and make sure they don’t jump over any fences. I am somewhat of a hover parent myself & I keep such an eye on my pets, they’ve never had an accident resulting in a vet visit. I also understand sensitive stomachs & our babies that are dying to eat everything, itching for a vet appt but not on my watch. I multitask well so your pet will never go unnoticed.
“Grateful to Tabitha for taking care of Luna and Oliver while we were out of town! Luna was happy for the company and both cats were well taken care of during the visit.”
About: I’m very active myself and would love for you pup to join me! I’m a teacher in Fort Meade, MD. I’ve taken care of my neighbors pups for toy money in middle school. Now, I love pet sitting to keep me active and bring in extra income as a middle school teacher! I am a middle school PE and dance teacher. I have availability early mornings and after school (4:15pm) for your pet. I love outside time, and would love to enjoy it with for and with your pet! N/A. I do not sit in my home. However, I am excited to provide house sitting, dog walking, and drop in visits for your pup!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gambrills
Talia was very accommodating to our requests even though some of them were last minute. She is very thoughtful and sweet. Our pets seemed to have warmed up after the initial meet up. She treated Kuma and Kitty as her own. We’ll definitely hire her again in the future.
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.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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.
