“Paola was an absolutely incredible sitter for our special needs cats. She was very attentive, communicated about our kitties regularly, and was easily reachable for any questions we had. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our cats, Paola!”
About: Hi! My name is Aubrey, and I’ve been pet sitting for over 5 years caring for all kinds of animals — from household pets to farm animals. I have experience with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels, whether they’re playful puppies and kittens or senior pets needing extra patience and care. I’ve also raised two puppies of my own, so I’m very familiar with puppy care, training, routines, and the patience and attention young dogs need. As a college student and future grad student at UMD, I have a very flexible schedule, especially over the summer and into next semester. I’m available for overnight stays, daily check-ins, walks, feeding, medication administration, and giving your pets plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I understand every pet has different needs, and I always make it a priority to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! As a college and future grad student here at UMD, I have a flexible schedule with availability for overnights, walks, drop-ins, and pet care. I always make sure to ask questions not only about your puppy but your house and regular routines. Health in animals is very important while you’re away so I always ask to have detailed notes or instructions.
“Gabby is a kind, reliable sitter who went above and beyond for my anxious pup. She went out of her way to help make sure my dog was comfortable with her before petsitting. She was in touch the entire time I was away and sent many photos. I would absolutely hire Gabby again.”
“Cora was an excellent sitter that got Ozzy and Dee out for many walks. They loved her and she was attentive and an extremely good communicator which put our minds at ease. Definitely will look to book again and highly recommend to all pet owners!”
“Emily was very responsible in caring for our difficult but beloved cat. When there was a problem, she let us know immediately, and was more than willing to try anything to help solve it. Giving him his medications proved to be impossible, but Emily persisted in taking good care of him. She obviously loves animals and is a mature young woman.”
“100% will book again and highly recommend Steven! Steven watched over my 16 year old cat with few health issues that required extra attention. On top of that, we recently lost another cat (her companion for 15 years) and she has been lonely and high stress. We were having second thoughts about leaving on vacation. Steven did an incredible job communicating during the entire trip. He provided daily summary of how she was doing, her appetite, her energy, meds etc. He honestly made our vacation 100% more relaxing and worry free. When we came back our cat was very chill and relaxed, a great sign that she had great company and that she loved Steven. I plan to become a repeat customer and 100% recommend him. Your pet will certainly be in great hands with Steven”
“Really appreciate Jared's attention to detail. Our pets have a somewhat complicated feeding schedule! Communication level was great and gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
“Giovanna was a wonderful sitter and I would trust her to stay again any time. She handled a very chaotic weekend and I was never once worried + I came back to a spotless house. I’ll be sure to book with her should I need someone in the future.”
“I simply cannot express the relief I had while traveling with Vanessa as my house/pet sitter. I have 2 cats and was babysitting my daughters cat, who arrived the day I left. Vanessa sent pics everyday of the cats snuggled with her or chilling in their fav spots! My trip was very unexpected, and it was my first time using Rover. I’ve always wary booked Vanessa again for a trip I had planned and was going to take my cat to my daughters, but it was so much more relaxing for them here in their home❤️”
“Katiana was awesome with my 2 pups! She arrived on time and sent many photos and updates throughout the day. My pups absolutely loved all the attention and trips to the dog park! Thank you so much for taking such great care of them!!”
“My wife and I are extremely satisfied with the care Charlotte provided for our dog Teddy. From the moment we got home, we could tell how happy and well cared for he was. It really gave us peace of mind during our trip. Charlotte was punctual, attentive, and followed all of our instructions. We also really appreciated that she took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand to make sure we were a good fit. That meant a lot to us. During that conversation she learned about our travel destination and since she was familiar with the area, she went above and beyond by sharing helpful tips and a great list of places for us to check out. While we were away she sent us photos here and there, which made us feel even more comfortable knowing Teddy was in good hands. We truly feel like we didn’t just find a pet sitter, we made a new friend. Thank you Charlotte for taking such great care of Teddy. We would absolutely recommend her to family and friends.”

Your pups comfortability is my first priority. I want this to be a fun and enjoyable experience for your dog and will do my best to make sure that happens.
“Jennifer has taken care of Pepper twice now—and everything went well. She updates us and sends pics. Our home was spotless when we returned and Pepper was happy. I recommend her without reservation.”
“Nichole was absolutely incredible taking care of our fur babies. She went above and beyond - offering to restock food and groceries, doing laundry, etc. in our home while we were away. In regard to the pups, I got numerous videos and photos every day of them playing, snuggling, and enjoying their time. She made sure they were active, comfortable, safe and loved. We will 100% be using Nichole again. I would recommend her for anyone looking for a house/dog sitter.”
“Natalie did a fabulous job taking care of my two cats and the house while I was on a trip. Everything looked very clean and the cats were happy. Natalie communicated well with me and sent enough pictures and text so that I was assured all was well.”
“Connie came and stayed with our pup over the July 4th weekend. She was prompt and very responsive throughout the stay. She also periodically sent us pictures of our pup, which we loved. I would highly recommend Connie and plan to use her again in the future!!”

Meghan was beyond amazing with our anxious dog and standoff-ish cat. Our dog seemed to attach to her right away and was spoiled with all the walks, belly rubs, and pets he could ask for. Every picture she sent showed a super happy, comfortable pup. Our cat even came in for some pets herself and gave Meghan some well-earned head butts. Meghan was perfectly communicative whenever anything came up and kept us super in the loop of how they were doing. I seriously cannot say enough good things. We are so glad to have found her!!
Big thanks to Paola for taking care of our furbaby while we were traveling! She stayed at our home and was the perfect houseguest. Even though it was extremely hot while we were traveling, Paola made sure our pup got his daily walks. We look forward to working with Paola again.

Veronica is a great sitter- she stayed at our house for a week with 3 pups and managed all of their particular personalities with ease! She sent a ton of photos which was so reassuring while we were out of town. She went out of her way to take out the trash and recycling without us even letting her know what day collections were and the house was very tidy when we returned. We would definitely book her again!
Ryon was amazing with our kitties! We cannot recommend Ryon enough. Going out of town is always stressful with 4 kitties at home, but Ryon eased our anxiety by sending daily photos and detailed updates, which was truly appreciated. Ryon clearly spent quality time playing with and comforting our pets. We returned home to four happy, healthy and relaxed animals. Professional, punctual, and a true animal lover, thank you Ryon!
Ella was a great house sitter with our two dogs and cat! She provided regular updates and photos, and the pups seemed to enjoy hanging out with her. She was able to accommodate a last minute medication request after our dog was put on antibiotics. House was in great shape when we returned. Would book again!
