About: Hello! My name is Kaira! I’m currently a full time Veterinary assistant with over 6 years of veterinary experience and over 9 years of pet care experience. I have a 7 year old Pomeranian named Stitch who is my world so I understand that our pets play an important role in our lives. I’m currently working Monday- Friday with weekends free, however, my schedule can be flexible so I can potentially make some changes is needed to suit your pets care. I currently offer house visits/stays, drop ins and walks. I have a 7yo Pomeranian named Stitch who gets along with both cats and dogs. Stitch usually travels with me to work, but if your pet is not fond of other animals then I can make arrangements for him.
“Samantha has cared for our dog (and home) twice now. Again we returned home to a happy pup and clean home. Samantha kept us informed and sent photos, and I wholeheartedly recommend her.”
“Katie is simply the best. She sent us pictures everyday on our trip, and took amazing care of our pup! We are forever grateful for her and her kindness and care for the dog. We can’t wait to have her dog-sit again!”
“Jennifer was our first Rover experience and it was absolutely great! The communication was great, she sent pics, and the house was in the same order when we got back the next day! I would highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Erica provides excellent care for our dogs when we are away. We receive much appreciated updates on how they are doing and the dogs have really taken to her. We will continue turning to Erica for our pet care needs. Thank you!”
“Alyssa was excellent with Bodie and Bailey! There were thunderstorms while we were gone and Bailey was very nervous. Alyssa kept us update on how she was doing and calmed her down. She is an extremely caring pet sitter!”
“We have never had a pet sitter before, and our 4 cats do well on their own for a few nights, but our new puppy needed care while we traveled out of state. Megan was fantastic! She asked clarification questions we wouldn't have thought of, took excellent care of all our fur kiddos, and we loved her updates and photos throughout the sitting experience. Our home was as we left it and Megan was genuinely enjoyable to interact with! Additionally, she is a veterinary technician and that provides extra comfort. Our kitties and puppy would gladly hang out with Megan again!”
“Brianna is an amazing Catsitter! Not only did my cats really love her but she was amazing at sending updates and being attentive towards them and their needs! Will definitely be booking her again for my future cat sitting needs!”
“I can’t explain how GREAT MICHEAL IS ! Is there was 20 stars I would give it to him. Is the process I also receive the best fall pictures of the girl that Micheal took. If I was you. Book book book !!!”
“Grateful for the care she provided and made sure our two crazies had love and attention while we were gone. Will definitely book Lindsey again if we get another chance to get away”
“Owen was fantastic. Not only was he responsive but the dogs were well taken care of. They were walked, fed, played with, and given a lot of love. While he was watching the pups he also kept the house clean. I got daily pictures ands updates which helped to put my mind at ease about my pups while I was on vacation. I will use Owen again”
“We had a wonderful dog sitting experience with Lindsay! Our dog can be a little shy when meeting new people but she immediately took a liking to Lindsey! Lindsey gave regular updates with pictures each day on how our dog was doing, and even took the time to wash the sheets and towels she used. We will definitely be booking her whenever we need a dog sitter!”
“She was able to housesit for our two fur babies while we saw some family. She had great communication and updates and we were very reassured they were in the best hands possible getting all the loves and walks. Ten stars.”
“Kaitlin is not only a natural animal lover, but also a very kind and responsible person. She stayed at our home and cared for our dogs during a snow storm that brought almost a foot of snow with it. She is an excellent communicator. I felt very comfortable traveling out of town knowing that she was taking great care of our dogs and home in our absence. 100% recommend her! 😊”
“Briana was great with our dogs! She was very responsive and reliable. She followed through on all our communications. She couldn’t have been easier to work with! Will definitely use again!”

Charlize was so good with the pets again. We recently adopted a very anxious dog and Charlize was very patient with her, eventually earning her trust. She was very communicative the entire time and helped ease some of the worry I had about going on vacation with the new dog at home
Megan was wonderful to have stay with our cats! Everything went great from start to finish. The house was left in good order, and our cats seemed happy and well cared for when we got home. She followed all of our instructions, sent pictures and regular updates, and even went above and beyond by feeding the stray cats we’ve been trying to take care of. We really appreciated how thoughtful and responsible she was throughout the stay. There’s nothing negative to note, and we would definitely recommend Megan to others. We’d be happy to have her stay again!
We’ve been having Liz do in-house pet sitting and check-ins for our pups for a couple years now and she’s amazing! She provides regular updates and photos, contacts us promptly with any problems or concerns and takes great care of our two pups, one of which (a Samoyed) is very mischievous and loves looking for trouble. Liz goes above and beyond every. single. time. She cleans up all the messes, lets them sleep in bed with her, retrieves the Samoyed when she manages to escape the yard; She even unpacked their Farmers Dog food order that happened to arrive during our 4-day trip so it wouldn’t go bad. She’s a lifesaver and is absolutely wonderful. Our dogs can be a bit of a challenge, but she handles them with grace and kindness. She’s a lifesaver and I can’t recommend her enough.
We are so pleased with Amy. We first used her 3 years ago and were impressed with the care she gave our senior dog. Fortunately she was available to watch her again this year. Amy sends regular updates and photos. She stayed at our house for the week and left it in beautiful condition. She updated me on rain - or lack of - for my garden, suggesting I water it since there was less rain than forecasted. Everything about Amy’s house/dog sitting is positive.
Cory was very communicative and kept me up to date with their daily activities. We had a minor pet illness that happened and Cory made sure we went to the right vet and got the treatment we needed. She got me in touch with the vets and made sure I was able to make the best decision possible. Now the pets are happy, healthy, and back to being goofy.
This is the second time I used Gabrielle and she was excellent again. She took great care of my golden - she was so loving to her and handled all her needs. She left my home is better condition than she found it, lol. Without being asked, the houseplants were watered, she took the trash out, cleaned the dog bowls and vaccuumed. I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her if you need a great pet sitter!
Keeara was honestly so great and gave me all the reassurance I needed for my two pups. It’s always hard for me to leave my dogs in the care of somebody else because I’m so particular and very paranoid about it overall but I definitely trust her and wouldn’t hesitate to let her watch my dogs again which says a lot. Her communication was a 10/10 even when an emergency in her own family came up she still prioritized the care of my dogs as well. Thank you so much again!! So grateful for her care.
We couldn't be happier. From the moment we met Linda, we felt completely at ease leaving both our dog and our home in her care. She was warm, professional, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. While we were away, Linda kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our dog was not only well cared for, but truly happy and comfortable. She also took amazing care of our home—everything was spotless and orderly. It’s not easy to find someone you fully trust with both your pet and your home, but Linda exceeded all expectations. We feel so lucky to have found her and will absolutely be using her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Glen Burnie
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Glen Burnie on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 8,031 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Glen Burnie. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Glen Burnie walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Glen Burnie maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Glen Burnie choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
