I have also volunteered at various animal shelters throughout the years. I currently have a flexible schedule during the summer months and am available most weekends and weekdays. I work on Thursdays and Fridays, but I am available to care for your pet in the evenings on these particular days.

About: I've owned and taken care of dogs my entire life and know from experience they are truly family. My goal is to always treat them that way. Whether your pup is social or shy, energetic or a couch potato, I'm ready :) I'm up for talking them for walks, playing in the yard, getting some energy out, or just hanging if that's their speed. I am currently off for the summer so my availability is very flexible. I will have my son with me at times, but he is very used to dogs. My pup is my furbaby, as is yours. Whatever your house rules are for the yard, furniture, or anything else, I'll follow that. I'm comfortable with leads, crates, or regular leashes.
“Christine showed up on time. Fed Nellie and took her for a walk around the yard. Played for a bit then returned her to her cage. We were very satisfied and will use Christine again”
About: I have always loved taking care of dogs and helping my neighbors by dog sitting, so I have experience feeding, walking, playing with, and giving lots of attention to dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and good at making animals feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. As a college student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. Since I don’t have a strict daily routine right now, I’m able to work around different pet care needs, whether that includes morning walks, afternoon check-ins, evening care, or overnight stays. I enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my routine and gives me something I genuinely enjoy doing while I’m home for the summer. I make sure any animal feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I follow any instructions given by the owner, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication if needed, and overall routines to help pets feel more relaxed while their owners are away. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while keeping their environment clean and safe. I understand that every pet has a different personality and needs, so I always try to be patient, attentive, and caring with each animal.
“Madison did a great job with our cats, Misty and Fae - they were in good hands. We received good communication and enjoyed the pictures. We hope she can care for our kitties again!”
About: Hello my names Addison and I’m 25 years old. For the last seven years I’ve been a senior caregiver until my client recently passed away. I’m looking to start pet sitting to fill my spare time. I’ve had dogs my whole life (small and large) and also have experience with cats. I even have experience working with reptiles and salt water aquariums. I currently reside in Northern Maryland on a corn farm with my two dogs. My husband works from home and can watch our dogs, so I can attend fully and give your animals full attention/if needed overnight. Thank you in advance for your consideration. I’m currently only pet sitting so your pet will have my full attention! Im also available for overnight stays if needed. I’m fully available on weekends as well. Pets under my watch will always get enough potty breaks and lots of love and attention. I know every pet is different and i try to mimic as close as I can to your pets routine you already have in place so you can be worry free on your vacation or trip!
About: Warning: I will probably fall in love with your dog. Hi, I’m Carly! I’ve always been a “dogs are family” kind of person. Growing up, my home had five pups running around at once, so I got used to the happy chaos (and all the cuddles that came with it). These days, I’ve “downsized” to two of my own, and they’re truly my whole heart. I completely understand how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone new- that’s why I always recommend a meet & greet before visits, so both you and your pup feel comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I have experience giving oral medications when needed. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. Whether that means playtime, snuggles, or just hanging out and keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. ps- I’ve been told I take better pictures of dogs than people, so prepare for cute updates (if you want them 😂) Fortunately, I have a very lenient work schedule where I am able to make the stops in to your pet at any time during the day. I respect that it’s your pet’s space, so I let them come to me on their terms. Meet-and-greets help make things feel more familiar and comfortable for you and your pet!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jarrettsville
Kerry was always punctual in her arrival and provided updates daily on her visits with Luna along with photos. Luna is a very nervous rescue so she’s not always cooperative but it seemed that Kerry was able to gain Lunas trust enough to provide the care needed. I would definitely recommend her services.

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 Jarrettsville 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. 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 Jarrettsville. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 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.
