“So many great things to say about Lauren but I’ll keep this short. Rover can be a bit daunting for a first time customer. We hit the jackpot with Lauren! She was just amazing with our two pups - one of which requires daily medication.”

“I hired Samantha through the Rover app for drop-in visits while I was out for work for 12 hours, and she did an amazing job. She arrived on time for every visit, made sure my girls were let out and cared for, and sent thoughtful updates each time, which really put my mind at ease. I was extremely nervous since I had never left my fur babies with a stranger before, but Sarah was wonderful and made the entire experience stress-free. I felt confident knowing they were in great hands. I will absolutely be hiring her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet care.”

“Aubrey was wonderful, responsive, reliable, and took great care of my kitty while I was out of town around thanksgiving! She went above and beyond to make sure the little quirks and preferences my cat has were taken care of (water from a sink, some time outside in an enclosed area, etc). Also appreciated the regular updates, the report cards through Rover, and the pictures she sent! Would absolutely recommend her and will use her for future kitty sitting needs! Thanks, Aubrey!:)”

“Alana was great! She took care of both of my dogs very well. They loved her which is always important. She was prompt, communicated with me and was someone I plan on using again when I am out of town.”

“Bonnie took great care of my cat, Dora, while I was away! Having just moved to the area, it was time to start over with a new sitter and I’m very glad to have found Bonnie! She is a great communicator, sent me lots of pictures and texts, and asked questions as they arose. Dora is normally leery of new people, but it was clear from the pics that Dora connected and felt safe safe with her right away! Bonnie was also super flexible with me on a visit time, helping coordinate a package delivery that was accelerated to while I was gone. It was another stress relieved. Thanks for everything, Bonnie! We’ll be reserving again soon!”
“Super duper dogwatch trooper! Provided regular updates and timely pics. Great attention to detail, remembering little quirks I told her about our dog. I’d say even nicer things, but I’d rather keep her a secret ;)”

“We had such a wonderful experience with Lauren! She was prompt, communicative, and even stopped by before our trip to meet us and the cats, which gave us so much peace of mind. She followed all of our feeding instructions perfectly and sent us daily updates with plenty of photos of the cats (and their food!), which we really appreciated while we were away. She also made sure to spend quality time playing with them. It’s clear how much she truly loves animals. We came home to two very happy cats! We will absolutely use her again and would highly recommend her to any family and friends. Thank you, Lauren!”

“Matthew came last minute for me and did a phenomenal job. I have a Cane Corso and German Shepherd and he handled both without any issues. Def will be using him again and highly recommend him.”


“Thank you so much for your help tonight and letting me have a night out. I will definitely use your services in the future! Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of my puppy! :)”

About: We’re a dog-loving family with a dog of our own, and caring for animals is part of our everyday life. We treat every dog like one of ours, with attention, playtime, and plenty of affection. Your dog won’t just be supervised, they’ll be cared for and welcomed as part of our pack! We have a large, fully fenced, flat backyard ~ the perfect adventure space for your furbabies! With one of us working from home and the other a teacher, our home runs in a relaxed and organized way. Dogs get regular walks, outdoor time, play, and plenty of interaction throughout the day. We keep things predictable enough for dogs to feel comfortable, and flexible enough to meet their individual needs. We value your dog’s safety and comfort. Our home features a spacious fenced yard for fun play and exercise. We’re attentive to each dog’s needs, energy level, and boundaries, and we take time to ensure everyone feels comfortable. When caring for pets in their own homes, we respect their routine and space, keeping things familiar and stress-free.
“I was looking for a good cat sitter for my 13-year-old cat Reebok and contacted Sarah at Rover. She came to my house for a meet and greet, and I was impressed by how well she interacted with my cat. She asked me about their preferences, routines, and special needs. During my trip, she sent me daily updates and photos. Reebok looked happy and relaxed in her company. She also followed my instructions on feeding, grooming, and playing with him. When I came back, I found my cat in great shape and my apartment in perfect order. She had cleaned the litter box and the food bowl and topped off the water container. I was very pleased with her service and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a good cat sitter. She is reliable, caring, and experienced. She truly loves cats and knows how to make them feel comfortable and happy.”

“Dominique is the best!!!!!!! We literally booked her last minute before going out of the country. We love her and most important of all my both doggies love her!!!! She has been such a great help and we will always keep her in mind for the future!!!!”


About: I’ve lived with and owned dogs all my life so I’m very used to having one around. I’m willing to do any sort of task to keep your puppy happy! 🫶 I’m working a part-time job, so I have lots of time in my schedule this summer to provide care! We can discuss times that can work for both parties. If coming to my home, I have a very friendly doodle named Max to keep them company and plenty of space to run around and take on walks.
About: I have two dogs of my own, and I am quite experienced with handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have received training on how to better understand the signals that dogs give us in order to determine how they are feeling (scared, excited, cautious, angry, etc.), and I have applied that training to my previous job at a doggy daycare countless times. I graduated college in December of 2016, and I’m still figuring out how to combine my Hospitality Management degree and my passion for caring for animals! I really enjoy dog walking because I find happiness in knowing that I provide comfort and peace of mind to those owners who aren’t able to be with their fur babies in the middle of the day!

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I can remember! When they say dogs are humans' best friend, they truly mean it! I cannot remember a time we did not have a pet in our home. I now own an amazing Bernedoodle of my own, who is an emotional support dog that went through 12 weeks of training! Being able to see a dog's tail wag or those cute little puppy's eyes they give you is one of the most fulfilling, adorable things. Being of service to people is my main calling in life, and being able to service your pet would be amazing, as I love creating new dog besties! I am currently unemployed and seeking a new full-time position. This market is not easy! With that said, my schedule is wide open! I am a volleyball coach at Frederick Community College, which takes up about 2 hours of my nights starting in late July! My weekends are mostly open. I am easy to schedule with; I need to ensure I have time to check my weekends! When it comes to allowing dogs to stay at my residence, my property manager does not allow it. With that said, I am more than willing to stay at any location needed, as I have a roommate who can watch my dog! I am willing to travel wherever needed. I have a very reliable car with plenty of backseat space, and I am willing to take the dog to another location if needed. I am very flexible and want to ensure you and your animal are happy and trusting of me!
“Jenna did an excellent job caring for our 3 fur babies while we were on an extended vacation! She was punctual, provided them so much love and play, and followed feeding and cleaning directions to a T! We were so comfortable having her in our home and entrusting the care of our babies to her. She even was kind enough to bring in our mail and to clean up an unexpected accident so well that we couldn't see any sign of it. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.”
