“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!”
About: We’ve always had dogs and cats growing up, so pet have always been a regular part of my everyday life! I know that sometimes this little things like walks or consistent feeding schedules can be the hardest part of having a pet! Allow me to take that weight from your shoulders! I have extensive experience with large dogs and puppies as well! I regularly housesit for homes with multiple animals and multiple species; dogs, cats, fish, bunnies, gerbils, and hamsters too! I’m currently working part time, but planning and scheduling are important to me. I am more often available in the mornings any day of the week. I value being consistent and reliable so I will only post availability that I’m sure will work! I will make sure to bring your pet everywhere with me! Clingy pets are my bread and butter! I have no problem hanging out as long as needed to always have an eye on your pets when they are in my care.
“Kaitlin dropped in on our cat daily while we were away. She communicated frequently to let us know when she would be coming and sent photos. She even went back to see our cat a second time on the first day because she didn’t realize there was a check in feature. We will definitely be using Kaitlin next time!”
About: I'm a mature, loving pet and house sitter who's responsible, honest, reliable-and fun!.I have cared for puppies, kittens, dogs, cats, rabbits. Each one has a unique personality. I believe that each of these beings have little souls! And I love them all. I am a semi retired artist and photographer, so my schedule is my own. My schedule is flexible so I can accommodate most schedules easily. I treat every home and pet as if they were my own. I am neat and clean and respectful of your home. I am also a "super Host" on AirBNB
“Susan did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were away. We felt totally confident in her ability to care for our pets. I highly recommend Susan for your pet care needs!”
“Esther was an incredible pet sitter for our cat! She came everyday and sent us multiple pictures and videos to keep us updated. She took such good care of our girl and we could not be more grateful! We will definitely be booking her again!”
“Bito took great care of our cats over a long weekend and sent lots of updates and photos during each visit, which we really appreciated. They spent extra time with our cats and were very communicative throughout the stay. We also came home to a very tidy house, which was thoughtful of them. Our cats seemed relaxed and well cared for when we returned.”
About: 13 years of caring for animals has taught me that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, and temperaments and understand how important it is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, playful, and dependable, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, medication, potty, and bedtime routines so they experience as little disruption as possible. I’m available for pet care Monday through Thursday from 5:00–6:30 AM and 6:00PM–10:00 PM, with full-day availability Friday through Sunday. I work close to home, so pets staying with me can receive a lunch-break check-in during my workdays. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s routine and provide dependable, loving care. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and any special instructions before providing care. I’m attentive during walks and visits, keep pets supervised, and follow your instructions carefully. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your fur baby is doing. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is in caring, responsible hands.
“Sophie is phenomenal cat sitter and fundamentally an amazing person. As a new cat mom and new to the app, Sophie was very communicative throughout watching my cat while we were out of town. She offered thorough updates, taught him not to bite and how to sit (showing her patience), and also went above and beyond to check in about the house and mail that came in when we were gone. I would work with her again in a heartbeat and am glad to have gotten a new friend out of this experience.”
“I can always rely on Danielle to respond quickly. She’s reliable and is a HUGE stress reliever knowing that my pup is being well taken care of. I’ve rebooked her numerous times now, and she has never disappointed”
About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs my entire life, so being attentive to their needs comes naturally to me. I also regularly care for pets belonging to close relatives, which has given me hands-on experience with different personalities, routines, and care styles. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy building trust with each dog I watch. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic pup or providing gentle, consistent care, I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine, especially on the days I’ve dedicated to it—Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Tuesday. On those days, I make sure I have the time and flexibility to give pets my full attention, including walks, feeding, playtime, and regular check-ins. I provide care in my client’s home to help pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. For dog sitting, I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific preferences your dog has. I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and consistency so they feel safe while you’re away.
“Anna is literally the best! This is our third time booking her and we have never had anything go wrong. She’s always friendly and loving with our pets! She makes sure they have the attention they need/could ever want when we are away. 10/10 would recommend 🤟💕”
About: My name is Nautica, I have always loved animals, especially dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I'm very patient and have fun teaching dogs new tricks or commands. I have crate trained both my dogs so I'm not afraid of a little mess. I have 10 + years of taking care of dogs, mostly 15lbs to 50lbs but I'm open to taking care of larger dogs. I have a large fenced in yard where we can run and play all day for dogs with a lot of energy or I can take relaxing walks for senior dogs. Dogs are like family and I will treat your dog as if he or she was my own. I'm currently a stay at home mom looking to support my family and grow my profile with Rover. My schedule is pretty flexible for pickup and drop off times. I have a fenced yard and 3 friendly dogs to play with your fur baby. Water will always be accessible. Your fur baby will be free to walk around or in a crate based on your dogs needs.
About: I've taken care of a dog in various formats since I was 14 years old. Currently I have three dogs that I have rescued and raised from various experiences where without me, they would have ended up worse off. I have extensive knowledge in pet care, wellbeing and injuries to keep a dog safe, happy and in a loving home. I've made it a point to understand dog nonverbal communication so that I can identify issues as they arise and keep my and your pets safe. My wife and I work opposite schedules most of the week meaning someone is home most of the day. I am an early riser often starting my day at 5am where I handle pet care until I leave for work around 7:30am. My wife takes over care until I return from work at 5pm and this is how our schedule runs Tuesday through Thursday. Monday and Friday we work the same shift so our pups will be unsupervised from 10am-5pm but are left in safe environments with plenty of mental stimulation and given potty breaks at 10am and extended breaks at 5pm when I arrive home. I am home all day on the weekends to take care of pet needs. I have a fenced in backyard that the dogs are free to play in all day with my other pups who are very friendly to other dogs. We have dog crates already set up in the home that are used on as needed basis and lots of mental stimulation toys like kongs, puzzles and treat dispensing toys. For my dogs they eat twice a day in the morning and night and are allowed unlimited (supervised through security cameras and frequent checks) backyard time, where there is water and a dog house to cool off. The dogs get walked on a rotating schedule throughout the week. In others homes I am sure to follow the schedule of the owner and ensure the wellbeing of your pet.

“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!”
“Zoey was absolutely perfect to Merlin! He is normally standoffish around new people so I was worried about his first drop-in, but he approved of Zoey right away. Thank you so much!”
“Demi was exceptional with my fur babies, and responded within minutes of my contacting her. Due to a family emergency, I needed a pet sitter right away; but I also wanted to meet the person. Blake loved Demi, and Rosie responded to her without giving her a grumpy face. She ate her wet food and looked alert. We have already discussed her next session with my kitties ?”
“We are repeat customers and would not hesitate to book again in the future. Stephanie was amazing with our sometimes skiddish and sometimes grumpy Chihuahua. He warmed up to her right away! She is also very flexible and looks for solutions to potential scheduling conflicts as opposed to declining the request as I've had happen with other sitters. 10/10 would recommend!”
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Gwynn Oak is $20

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!

Erika was wonderful with my two kitties! They were going through a finicky stage so I had to transition them to a raw diet which was a bit detailed. Erika followed everything to the letter! I love that she sent me daily photos. It was very much appreciated! Thank you Erika for giving the love and care ❤️
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!
Anna is for real, the best! Every time we need to leave our boys at home we ask her to watch them because we love her so much! She’s always on time, sends lots of pictures, and takes care of our furry guys like they were her own. We would pick Anna over any other pet sitter or kennel every time.
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.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

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 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.
