“Emily is great with communication, prompt on the days she visits, and follows all instructions to care for our pets (specific foods, prescriptions, etc.). We are so glad we have someone so reliable to take care of our animals while we are away!”
About: I have watched over many of my friends and families pets. The dogs I have watched in the past have been moderately large, and could be a bit wild at times but I was able to keep hold of the situation. I have also accompanied my family and friends when they had taken care of pets for other families. I had helped train a very wild pup for a friend, as well as a basic command which was sit. I absolutely love animals and even went to a program in high school for them. I am currently free during most times of the week. I am currently attending HCC, my classes being on Monday and Wednesday and do not stretch late into the day. I am very available to watch your pups or kitties! I can come during the mornings or evenings during the week depending on the day. I am also available to house sit. I care for them by learning their needs and wants first in their home. I understand every animal is unique and needs to be cared for in a way that works for them. I listen to the owner to ensure that everything will be safe and cared for in their absence.
“Kaylee was superb 🥰 very nice Loved our dog 🐕 and which meant a lot she made sure he was well taken care of and made it a point to bound with him. Would highly recommend Kaylee and hope she will be available again. She always posted pictures and was always on time even on a bad weather day she was there 🤗💜”

About: ⭐️ Meet and Greets with new clients ⭐️ DETAILED updates with photos/videos ⭐️ Extra Cuddles and Playtime ⭐️Seasoned in professional pet care Hi! I’m Savannah 🤍 your pet’s new favorite sitter (and probably their future bestie 🐾) I’m new to Rover, but I’ve always had a deep love for animals and truly enjoy being around them. At home, I have a sweet cat named Athena, and have always been raised around dogs so i definitely understand each one is different. I’m also a stay-at-home mama to my daughter—so I have a very flexible schedule and lots of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve. I don’t just “check in” on pets—I take the time to learn their personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. Whether they’re playful, shy, or need extra patience, I meet them where they are, giving them love, attention, and playtime so they feel happy and at ease while you’re away 🤍
“Samantha was great and made sure Athena was well cared-for while I was away for a couple of days. She left good updates and was even able to get a picture of my (very shy, usually hiding) kitty.”
About: Since my original bio, I've fostered sickly bottle baby kittens. I have experience in administering oral medicine and feeding babies, but I also have experience in general care thanks to volunteering at an animal shelter. I'm looking to go to school to be a vet tech, but I'm always researching ways to improve my care. I've taken care of both family and friends' pets since I was little, and I very much love being around and caring for animals. I get along well with any cat, and can also help with bathing if needed. I have plenty of free time, as I'm currently self employed and love getting to play with animals. Cats are my favorite, and therefore I have the most experience with them. I'm very rigid on pet care. Daily litter box cleanings, multiple feedings and making sure water bowls are clean. I'm very laid back as well, so I can give a relaxing atmosphere.
“I recently had the pleasure of working with Briana, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From our first interaction, it was clear that she had a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of dog care. Briana took the time to get to know my dogs' personalities, habits, and specific needs, which put me at ease right away. During the time I was away, she provided regular updates and adorable photos, which reassured me that my pups were in great hands. Thank you Briana”
About: 💗 If your pet needs someone who’s going to do more than just feed them and head out, I’m your girl!! I genuinely love getting to know each pets personality whether they’re the clingy type who follows you everywhere, the zoomers at night, or the pet who pretends they don’t like anyone (until they secretly do like my orange cat which is now super affectionate). 💗I have two cats of my own a boy orange cat who keeps me entertained every day and a girl black tuxedo cat who’s basically my little shadow. Having my own pets has taught me how much trust it takes to leave them with someone else, so I never take that responsibility lightly. I treat each pet I care for as I would my own. 💗 I’ve been pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for around five years, caring for everything from fresh new born kittens/puppies to older cats/dogs who just want a quiet companion. I work as a travel home caregiver too, and actually a lot of my clients end up asking me if I can come back just to spend time with their pets when they’re away. I think animals can sense intentions from humans and want company for the ones who actually care and show them love. 💗 I’m a very patient person, so I don’t mind taking things at your pet’s pace. If they’re nervous, I’ll let them warm up to me. If they’re full of energy, I’ll match it. If you’re working on basic training or trying to keep them on a routine, I’m happy to help stay consistent while you’re gone. 💗 I know every pet is different, and that’s honestly my favorite part. Earning a pets trust and make to them feel comfortable is my goal. I want you as a pet parent to come home to a happy pet who was cared for and needs were attended as if you never left. Most mornings start with the gym or a run, then I meal prep before heading to work. I’m a Med Tech, GNA, and travel home caregiver, and I’m also studying Computer Science with a Nursing minor at Morgan State. On my days off, I’m usually reading with my book club, playing my PlayStation, or having a movie night. I keep a pretty balanced routine, so I always have the time and energy to give pets the attention, patience, and love they deserve. I look forward to pet sitting, it’s always the highlights of my week. I follow each pet’s routine closely, making sure they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. I provide attentive care, regular feeding, fun playtime, and plenty of affection to keep them happy and stress free.
“Bronte is great! She is reliable, responsive, and has always been willing to accommodate our bookings, which we really appreciate. She takes good care of our pets and follows all instructions we leave, giving us peace of mind while we’re away. She’s also very kind and easy to work with. We’re grateful to have found someone we can count on and would happily recommend her to others!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Havre de Grace
Emily was fantastic! Her daily write-ups were amazing, she went above and beyond when it came to the service she provided, and ultimately, she ensured our cats were happy and healthy while we were away! We could be more pleased with her. Thanks for everything, Emily!
Theresa was amazing. While I was out of the country for ten days she came by each day and not only cared for my cat Salem but took the time to give him so pets and snuggles allowing him to warm up to her. She gave me daily updates with pictures and was easy to communicate with. I will be using her in the future as well!
Excellent care, compassion, dedication, dependability, observant, and very friendly, that’s Samantha. She took care of our 17+ year old cat for a full week while we out of state. We didn’t have to worry about anything. Samantha provided great communications, kept us informed daily on everything, from feeding, litter-box, cat behavior, etc, and sent daily photos. Samantha took care of everything and questioned anything that might be of a concern to us. For example, with all the rain, we had some very tiny ants finding their way in for shelter, but went to the cat food. We probably wouldn’t have noticed, but Samantha did. She quickly notified us, emptied, cleaned and washed water and food bowls, plus the tray underneath, then refilled them fresh and relocated a few feet away. Continued by washing that floor area, and put a Terro ant bait trap (pet friendly) that we had at that location. Sent photos of everything being done, and rechecked all was well on next visit and gave us updates. Samantha is very conscientious and observant with great communications. We always knew what was going on, and knew if any issue came up, she would react quickly and take care of it. Made our trip pleasant knowing we didn’t have to worry about anything. Very pleased with Samantha’s efforts and dedication in providing the best care. Highly recommend her, plus our cat found her very likable too. He normally hides from others, but not with Samantha. Location wise, Samantha lives in Bulle Rock, our same community, so it was like having a dependable close friendly pet care professional next door. We will definitely use her again.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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 .
