“Casie was great once again I have used her a few times for all my travel. Luna loves her and even allows her to pick her up and give her tons of cuddles. I will continue to use her every time I go out of town.”
“Claire was available short notice for us, was able to come pick up keys, and was absolutely wonderful with our dog. We will absolutely be working with her in the future!!”
“Kathleen was a lifesaver. We were away for a day trip and had scheduled her to walk our dog mid-day. While we were on the trip we had an emergency that made it impossible for us to get home to walk and feed our dog that evening as planned. Kathleen was quick to respond and helped us out last-minute for a second visit the same day.”
“Erica was awesome. She was timely and worked great with my family of animals. I got great pictures and funny stories about what they were doing every day. Thanks!”
“Bronte was FANTASTIC! She took great care of my boys, went above and beyond to give them special care and time, and did everything I asked of her. She was friendly and so kind and amazing to work with.”
“Lindsay was perfect! Communication was easy and timely, we met for a walk around our neighborhood prior to her watching our pup. She sent pictures during her visits with Buster and made sure he got all the pets and love! Look forward to booking with her again!”
“Carolyn B. is very dependable and thorough. She sent me pictures and communicated very well with me. This is my first time using Rover and I will request her in the future. She did extra little things while I was away and as time went on I felt very confident with her coming into my home and taking care of my fur babies.”
“Gabby took excellent care of my two cats and shared great updates and pictures. She was easy to coordinate with, and handled extra cleaning up after an unexpected pet mess thoroughly.”
“I am a return customer. I made a mistake and missed the window to review on her previous visit, so I had to make sure to tell you guys how Jules is awesome. My dogs love her. Jules followed the instructions on feeding them perfectly so it’s like I never left. It’s so peaceful knowing my dogs are in good reliable care. I tell my friends to Book Jules.”
About: I’ve always grown up with dogs and cats, so I have lots of experience caring for both. My mom currently has 3 lab mixes and one of them is, unfortunately, getting up there in age and when I visit her, I try to help as much as I can, so I have experience caring for older dogs. I have one dog of my own who is my best friend! He’s a 6 year old black lab with nonstop enthusiasm for walks, chasing squirrels, and sniffing his way through every park in Baltimore City. He is also a fearless rat patroller! We have had him since he was a puppy, so I have been able to get experience training him and learning to work with, and love, all of his quirks, and I’m excited to do the same for your pets! I work a normal 40 hr work week, but am happy to fill in to help with your pet needs. I work from home mostly, so outside of my occasional in office days, I’m available to be with your pets through the day during the week! I am always available on the weekends. I have my own dog and a partner who works occasional odd or long hours, so there are times I will have to head back home to check on my own pup! In my own home, our dog has free range over the house! He rules the place and, unfortunately, doesn’t get along with other dogs, so I’m not able to offer boarding services in my home. While I’m at yours or with your pet, I will treat them like my own - lots of love, occasional treats (as many as are okay with you), and whatever else they may need! I’d love to have detailed instructions on how to care for your pet, so I can make sure they are as comfortable as they can be!
“Ryan is fantastic, and I highly recommend him. He came over for a meet in-advance, and said/did a lot to help us feel confident in hiring him. He was prompt, clearly loved our dog, played with her a lot, and took great pics (it helps that we have a gorgeous dog).”
“Chelsea was responsive, reliable, and took excellent care of my two cats, including a cat that requires insulin injections every 12 hours. She also takes very good pictures! I looked forward to the photos from her check-ins and appreciated her willingness to see my babies twice a day over the holidays.”
“First time using Rover and Heather was wonderful. We appreciated her being patient and flexible with us. Our babies were well taken care of and we hope to be able to use Heather’s services again in the future ?”
“Sam is the only person that we trust to watch our dogs and he does such an excellent job each time. We've been using Sam for years and plan to continue to use him in the future.”
“Victoria was so wonderful with my dogs. I was afraid of leaving them for a week but she was so kind and attentive. My dogs had no accidents and got their medications. They loved her and I would definitely hire again.”
“I’ve requested Imani’s help a few times now with dog walking, house digging, or drop-ins, and she consistently goes above and beyond. She is always such a pleasure to work with and my dogs really love her.”
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in Gwynn Oak is $20
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gwynn Oak
Emily was wonderful to work with. She came and met our pups to make sure it would be a good fit for her, as well as for us and our two pups. This was my first time using Rover and the process was easy, and Emily was great! We will definitely use her again!
Thank you so much for taking such great care of our dog while we were out of town! We really appreciated the updates and the love you showed him. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We would definitely trust you again and highly recommend you!
Iman was absolutely fantastic with my dog, Ammo. She was always on time, extremely attentive, and provided detailed updates after every walk, which gave me great peace of mind. She was also very considerate about the weather, always reaching out during extreme heat or rain to make sure Ammo would be safe and comfortable before heading out. She followed every instruction I left perfectly and clearly cared about Ammo's well being as if he were her own. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, and I will definitely be booking with Iman again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog walker!
Lindsay was perfect! Communication was easy and timely, we met for a walk around our neighborhood prior to her watching our pup. She sent pictures during her visits with Buster and made sure he got all the pets and love! Look forward to booking with her again!
Kristen A. is a lifesaver! I ended up having to go to the ER after thinking I can just get taken care of at the urgent Care. That led to almost a full week Hospital stay, my pup Oreo was home and because I didn't know how long I'd be there thinking maybe a day or so I decided maybe to try doing drop-in appointments and allowing him to stay home. She came faithfully twice a day giving my dog so much love and attention! She is very good with communication giving updates on how he was doing and sending copious pictures, and very sensitive to my situation. I would definitely recommend her to anyone for drop in care!
Shakiyla was an absolutely fantastic sitter! She is so knowledgeable about how to care for a big, very loving but also high energy dog like my Alba, and I felt very comfortable knowing my baby was in her care while i was so far away. She is professional, kind, responsive, and an excellent trainer as well, and I will absolutely be requesting her services in the future. Highly recommend, especially if you have a bully breed dog!

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 Gwynn Oak 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.
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 Gwynn Oak 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!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Gwynn Oak with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
