About: I understand how stressful it can be to board your pet or leave them home alone. I want to care for your furry friends the way you would, so you can be assured they are comfortable and happy at home. I have had dogs and cats my entire life; currently I have one dog and one cat of my own. I've also cared for the pets of many friends and neighbors over the years. I love making new furry friends! I am available for house-sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits and playtime, cat care, etc. just let me know what you need and I'll make it work. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I have a full-time job aside from Rover. I am available to care for your pets early in the morning, evening/night after work, overnight, and on the weekend. I work remotely a couple days a week, so I do have mid-day availability those days (let's talk if that's something you're interested in and I can give you more details). It's of the utmost importance to me that both you and your pet feel safe and comfortable with me! I'm happy to do a meet-and-greet before you commit to care, and I can send you all the text updates you'd like.

About: Seventeen years of feeding and caring for pets from bunnies to dogs, cats, cows, pigs, and chickens. Have taken care of a variety of breeds, behaviors, and ages. I am available many of hours of the day during the week and weekend. I will not accept a job that I cannot reasonably provide care for the pet. I take advantage of animals’ unique physiological systems (i.e. smell, slow movements) to gain trust. I like to stick to pets’ household routines. If there are specific instructions for going outside, I would like to know ahead of time.

“Mollie is extremely responsible and communicative. We’ve had sitters for years, but she especially impressed me because she came to the meet and greet with her own questions and took notes to be sure she understood all about our dog, Cookie. She kept in touch before the drop in visit and worked through a problem with us right away. She earned my trust and we will call on her again for drop in and house-sitting needs!”

“Glenn and Diana were the best sitters ever! We have a very hyper, young lab who does not like to be left alone. We have never used a professional pet sitting service before and Glenn and Diana provided us with not only did they provide excellent pet care, but they were extremely flexible with several last minute schedule changes. They also helped us navigate the Rover app to help correct errors on our part as well as giving our dog some short training sessions with sit, down, and stay while they were spending time with her. Glenn and Diana played a lot of fetch with the dog and gave our cat tons of attention too. Great sitters who really put us at ease! We highly recommend them and Rover!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 11 years of experience who provides a safe, clean, and loving environment. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur baby, and I’ll treat them like part of the family. I enjoy walks, playtime, and making sure each dog gets plenty of attention and affection. I can’t wait for all the new amazing pets I will get to meet and have the privilege of taking care of! I work full-time 8am- 4pm Monday through Friday, so best with dogs that are comfortable being home alone during the workday. Before and after work, I’ll provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. On evenings and weekends, I’ll have much more time to spend with them! I grew up with dogs and have loved caring for them my entire life. After recently losing my family dog to old age, I want to continue sharing that love by caring for other people’s pets. I provide a safe, loving environment, follow each pet’s routine, and treat every animal like family. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I feel very proud that whenever I meet an animal we’re almost Instantly best friends. They say that dogs can sniff out honest and kind people. I feel very skilled at building trusting connections with pets and making sure they are happy when you come home! I am able to keep them safe and entertained, handle medicine, food, etc. I have a long list of repeated clients and growing that list helps me support myself and my artistic career! I hope this bio stood out to you because I'd love to spend time with your pet so you can have a stress free day away from the house! I have a very flexible schedule. I work many different gigs that make my schedule super flexible! I am able to make trips during the day to care for your pet while you're at work and I am also able to hang with them in the evenings if you decide you want to have a night out! I like building trust between animals. Repeated visits with pets are very important to help reduce stress on them. I give them space upon first meeting to give them the opportunity to approach me when they are ready to do so. until in no time we are besties.

About: As a pet owner myself, I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level. I’m experienced with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, brushing, playtime, and giving cats/dogs the space or attention they prefer. I love spending time with dogs and have experience caring for my friends’ dogs. I regularly play and interact with dogs, and I understand that every dog has its own personality, energy level, and needs. Whether they enjoy active playtime, relaxing walks, or just some extra attention, I always make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and safe. I work a regular full-time schedule, but I have availability outside of work and on weekends. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any special needs. I keep doors, gates, food, and surroundings secure and always respect your home.

About: I grew up around dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve helped take care of my friends’ dogs, including Pip, whom I’ve watched since he was a puppy, and Martha, a more senior dog. I’ve handled walking, feeding, playtime, and just generally making sure they’re comfortable and well cared for. I’m very responsible and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I take that responsibility seriously and treat every dog as if they were my own. It means a lot to me to be given the opportunity to care for your furry friend. : ) I can be flexible with my schedule depending on what you and your doggie needs. If there’s a particular time that you’re looking for, feel free to let me know and we can work something out! I live in a single apartment, with a lots of room for any small or medium sized doggies. I also love runs and long walks if they’re more in the mood to be more playful

I was honestly in a panic when I messaged Christine last minute because the sitter I had booked months in advance suddenly couldn’t watch my dogs anymore. Christine responded so quickly and completely saved the day! She truly is a star and took such great care of my babies. I didn’t even have time to do a meet and greet beforehand, and I still felt completely comfortable with her. She was amazing from start to finish. Thank you so, so much for saving me and my dogs! ❤️ I would absolutely book with her again!

Erica is an amazing person and a caring pet sitter. They helped take care of my two kitties fish and plants while I was away. During our meet and greet Erica was engaging and attentive when I was explaining the tasks I would like done. Erica went above and beyond. My kitty got a nervous stomach while I was away and Erica helped clean the mess so I wasn’t extra stressed when I got back. Skittles takes a long time to warm up to pet sitters but she didn’t hide this time and Erica made sure to feed her separately from her brother. Tiberius is happy Erica gave love and attention when we were gone as he gets extra lonely. Thank you again Erica. Best pet sitter I had on rover.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Glenmont

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Glenmont is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $34 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 1,125 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Glenmont. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 .

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 , 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 Glenmont. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
