“Brian was absolutely wonderful with our Bernedoodle puppy Oreo! Despite Oreo being a 60+ pound bundle of adolescent energy, Brian handled him with patience, confidence, and ease. He was always on time, professional, and genuinely caring. Oreo absolutely loved his visits and that says everything. Highly recommend Brian without hesitation. Will definitely book again!”

“We are so glad to have found Marwa to help take care of our pup during the day. She is truly passionate, caring, and knowledgeable about dogs. She is constantly going above and beyond to help Lolli become more comfortable and confident with her. Marwa is lovely, and we felt an immediate connection with her (maybe not Lolli quite yet!). I feel completely at ease having her enter our home and provide such extraordinary care for Lolli. Her patience, dedication, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We feel very lucky to have found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.”

Also brought in our packages too. I will not hesitate rebooking with Laura in the future! Thank you so much for everything!”

About: Coming from farm life (DE), I know the hard work and love that goes into raising all types of animals. Animals are much more than pets they are family. I will care for your animals like I would care for any of my loved ones. I’m currently work full time (7am-3pm) in the Baltimore area as a speech pathologist/therapist. So I am available everyday before and after to tend to your little ones! I am a very active person, I enjoy going on daily walks and would love some company. I currently live in an apartment, however I have access to a dog park and I am available to come to you!

About: With 8 years of pet-sitting experience, I've cared for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities! From energetic dogs who love long walks and playtime to senior pets who prefer a slower pace, I understand that every animal has their own unique needs. I have experience caring for multi-pet households, including dogs, cats, and small animals. I'm comfortable managing different feeding schedules, exercise routines, and daily responsibilities. I also have hands-on experience administering medications to both dogs and cats, including oral medications, eye drops, and topical creams or ointments. I understand how important it is to follow medication instructions carefully and keep pets comfortable throughout the process. Whether you need a drop-in visit, a walk, or overnight care, my goal is to maintain your pet's usual routine while giving them the attention and affection they deserve. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else's care, so I prioritize communication, reliability, and regular photo updates. I treat every pet with the same patience, kindness, and care I'd want for my own! I offer flexible scheduling for drop-in visits, dog walking, and overnight house sitting in your home. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to accommodate their usual feeding times, bathroom breaks, exercise, and daily activities. Whether your dog needs a midday walk, your cat needs some company while you're away, or your pets need overnight care, I'm happy to discuss their schedules and individual needs ahead of time. My priority is providing consistent, dependable care that works for both you and your pets! Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities! I provide care in your home, where your pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routines. I carefully follow instructions for feeding, medications, exercise, and any special care requirements. I have experience administering oral medications, eye drops, and topical treatments to both dogs and cats, and I always prioritize patience and gentle handling. I'm also attentive to securing doors, gates, and leashes, monitoring pets for unusual behavior, and keeping their environment clean and safe. Whether I'm visiting for a walk, stopping by for daily care, or staying overnight, I'll treat your home with respect and provide regular updates so you know your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for!

I was very nervous about leaving Newman. He usually travels with me but I was unable to bring him this week or next. With a heavy heart I booked Rover and Josh accepted my request. Newman was a year old when placed in the shelter and only 3 months with me. He is adapting quickly to indoor life but still needs some social upgrading. I was worried how he would accept a stranger but Jish is like the kitty whisperer! Newman allowed Josh to pet him after only a short time. This decreased my worry very quickly. The structured and documented check ins were wonderful. I have already booked Josh for next week and will use him again in the future.

From the first message to our scheduled meet and greet, Mina impressed me with her friendliness, flexibility, and genuine love for cats. She arrived on time, asked great questions, and let my cats dictate the pace of their meeting - no rushing or forced interactions. By the end of just one meeting, my shy and anxious cats allowed her to come close and engage with them. I feel fully reassured and confident that Mina will take great care of them while I am traveling. Highly recommend!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Hunt Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hunt Valley is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $50 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 4,945 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hunt Valley. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hunt Valley. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

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.

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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
