“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.”
“Helen is a delight! She came over to meet Gus the day before her engagement. Gus loved her and brought her one of his toys when she arrived. We will be asking her to take care of Avis again in the future.”
“Nia was by far the sweetest sitter I’ve had yet! She was very attentive to my baby and even sent tons of videos and pictures as requested. She took her for walks and ensured she had fresh food and water each day. I would not hesitate to use Nia again for my baby!”
“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!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, extra playtime, or a little patience and encouragement, I’m happy to provide attentive care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care throughout the week. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and bathroom breaks while making sure each pet receives the attention and care they need. I’m committed to being reliable, punctual, and communicative so pet parents always know their furry family member is in good hands. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and walking preferences. During walks, I remain attentive to my surroundings and keep pets securely leashed unless otherwise instructed in a safe, enclosed area. In your home, I will respect your space, maintain your pet’s routine, and provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident your pet is receiving excellent care while you’re away.
“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.”
About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience, I bring a lifetime of love and care for dogs of all shapes and sizes—from tiny Chihuahuas to towering Great Danes. I’ve been a devoted dog owner my entire life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’m known for being dependable, patient, and genuinely passionate about dogs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or simply providing a calm and loving presence while you’re away, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and loved every step of the way. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 2:45 PM, which allows me to provide attentive pet care during afternoons and evenings on weekdays. I’m fully available all day on Saturdays and Sundays, giving your pet plenty of dedicated time for walks, play, and companionship. My schedule allows me to balance reliable, loving care with consistent availability to meet your pet’s needs throughout the week. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on maintaining their familiar routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding times, exercise, medication, or play preferences. I make sure to give lots of attention, affection, and positive reinforcement so your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away. I also keep the environment clean and secure, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your furry friend is in good hands. My goal is to create a calm, loving atmosphere that feels just like home.
“Victoria is amazing!! She is always on time and gives detailed feedback of the visit along with great pictures of our cats. One of our cats is very shy (will not come out for almost any visitor) and she comes out for Victoria every time. This is a huge indicator that Victoria is amazing with animals and that animals love her!”
About: Hi, I’m Michael! I’ve spent the past few years helping care for my stepmother’s pets whenever she needed an extra hand. At first, I didn’t think much of it — but over time, I realized how much I truly enjoyed it. That passion inspired me to start offering my pet care services to others! Here’s a little about my experience: • Feeding pets on a regular schedule • Walking and cleaning up after them • Administering medications (pill form) • Refilling water and ensuring hydration • Spending quality time playing, relaxing, and keeping them company I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I am currently a college student at UMBC and work at a bar on Thursday nights. As a result, my availability is primarily on Fridays and weekends. I am generally free during these times unless I have a prior commitment. I make it a priority to maintain a flexible schedule to provide attentive and reliable care for your pets When caring for pets, I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, making sure to stick to every detail. I take pride in being thorough and dependable because I believe every pet deserves the best care. My goal is to ensure that each pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their owner is away.
“Emily was awesome to work with! We were away for an extended period of time and Emily always sent updates, communicated when needed, and took such great care of our kitties! Even our most shy cat came out to play with Emily! We will certainly rebook with Emily in future !!”
“Lindsay is a fantastic dog walker and dog caretaker. She is attentive, loving, and conscientious. When I need her in a pinch, she's reliable and able to take care of my three young, rambunctious dogs. I can't recommend her enough! My dogs adore her as well—they always look forward to her arrival. Book your next appointment with Lindsay. You won't regret it, and neither will your dogs.”
About: • 30 Minute Drop-Ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime and of course plenty of snuggles to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you're away. I go above and beyond with detailed "report cards", daily photo and video updates, or regular check-ins via text or email. I take the time to build trust with nervous, shy, or reactive dogs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. I work part-time from Saturday through Tuesday, but I'm completely free on my days off and on Monday mornings until 2:00 PM. I'd love to provide companionship and care during those times, ensuring your pet is never alone for long. I always match the owner’s exact routine to keep the pet calm. I provide tailored in-home care for all types of pets, ensuring they stay safe and happy in their own environment. I treat every home with respect and send regular updates so you have peace of mind
“Mel is a great pet sitter, especially when I have needed her service last minute. She gives my cat the proper care and lets me know if there are any issues. Highly recommend!”
“Lidia was our dog sitter for the Labor Day weekend and did a wonderful job! She visited our pups exactly as scheduled and made sure they were well cared for — playing with them, letting them out, refilling their water bowls, and feeding them. She gave them lots of love and attention, which made us feel at ease while we were away. One of the highlights was how well she kept us updated. Lidia sent us plenty of pictures from every visit and shared regular updates on how our dogs were doing. We felt completely confident that they were in great hands. We truly enjoyed having Lidia take care of our dogs, and they clearly enjoyed her too! We will definitely be booking her again.”
About: I've had pets all my life and I'm starting to care for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different breeds and sizes. I currently work full time, I work 1 day remote at home and 4 days in the office. I will make plenty of time to be there for your fur baby though. I am very active, I go running, take long walks as well as hiking with my pup. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to have company. Any special needs, diets or behaviors I will need to know in order keep your fur baby happy and comfortable.
“Laura took such great care of our cat when we were away for a week! The photos and updates provided peace of mind so that we could enjoy our trip without worry. We will definitely be asking Laura to care for our kitty when we go out of town in the future!”
“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.”
Halethorpe pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was our first time using Rover for our cat Walt. He is slow to warm up to people but Tabitha was great at the meet and greet just going at his pace and not forcing anything. She stopped by for 2 visits and by the second one he was less shy and approached her more easily. I would definitely recommend Tabitha as she was available on short notice and reliable.
Mel took perfect care of our Ety, communicated proactively before, during and after the booking, and thankfully was flexible and worked with me when I got the dates of our trip wrong. Great to have a cat sitter we can rely on near us in Halethorpe, will book again
Kelly was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter for Luna and Oliver. She was very proactive in her communication and provided detailed updates on how the two were doing, which gave us peace of mind during our travels given Luna’s regular health issues. The cats were clearly very comfortable with Kelly and we greatly appreciated the care and attention she gave to them to ensure they were happy and well-taken care of. She even went the extra mile to help us out during an unexpected incident, which was a huge lifesaver for us. We highly recommend Kelly if you are looking for a sitter who truly cares about your pets and wants to give them the best experience when you’re away!
Katherine was fantastic with taking care of my plants while I was on vacation. She is extremely friendly, courteous, and detail oriented. She followed detailed instructions without any problems. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking to take care of their plants or animals. I will be using indefinitely.
Samantha has watched our dog twice now and she is always so fantastic with Tahlee! She sent photos of Tahlee while I was out of town! Samantha was able to work with our schedule even with her weekend already being booked out! Absolutely recommend Samantha to house sit your pets!
