“Tristen was absolutely wonderful. My dog Sergio loved him and they bonded instantly. It’s always good to have someone you know you can trust with your dog in your absence! You are our dog sitter until you decide not to do it anymore Tristen. Appreciate you!”
About: Over the years I've helped friends, family members, and neighbors with cat & dog care, ranging from walks to playtime and feeding. I am comfortable with reinforcing good behavior and obedience training. I work remotely most days, so I'm able to arrange regular times to care for pets, whether it's a mid-day walk, feeding breakfast or dinner, or administering medications before bedtime. I make sure all pet-accessible areas remain safe and clean. I do regular checks for hazardous items and clean up any accidents. If any toys or bedding become damaged to the point that they could cause harm to a pet, I secure them away from the pet and notify the owner.
“Taresse was wonderful!!! I was so anxious about leaving my senior cat Martha for a long international trip. Taresse sent me wonderful photos of her every day that put my heart at ease. I will definitely be requesting her care for Martha again. Thanks!!!”
“Christine has been a godsend for taking care of my three fur babies. They absolutely adore her and it allows me to go away comfortably knowing that they’ll be happy and taken care of!”
“Christina was the best cat sitter we have had! Extremely responsive, extremely attentive to our three cats with very different personalities. Sent us a ton of photos to keep us updated and even helped us grab our mail when we got an unexpected delivery. We will 10000% rebook with Christina again!”
About: While you are away, let your dogs enjoy a pupcation! My wife and I have been caring and training dogs for 10+ years. We have a fenced yard with a lake just beyond that. We currently have 2 friendly dogs who love to play. We can guarantee your dog will have an awesome time! We will train your dog as well if you would like. Dogs will get walked every day and plenty of play time. In this house hold, dogs are part of the family! Able to adapt and provide whatever care you require for your dog. I work 6am - 2pm and my wife works at a hospital over night. So there is always someone home to look after the dogs. If you want, we can take the dog out to the lake. We take ours out there all the time, it is shallow. But if you don't want them to, they don't need to. Our yard is fully fenced and cut off from the pond. Both my wife and I work, but she works night and I work days. So at all times we have someone home watching the pups. We treat your dog just like they were our own. We give them all the love, attention and care that they need. Your dog will gets plenty of play time, cuddles and care.
“Once again, Angela was an amazing sitter for our cat while we were away for the week! Thoughtful and communicative, she understood our girls unique needs. We came home to a happy and healthy kitty! All pet parents know how hard it is to leave your babies, but the pictures and updates make it easier to feel good about the care they're getting. Thanks so much for everything you do!”
About: Hi, I’m Kelly! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud pet mom who understands that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, a little extra attention during a drop-in visit, or some calm companionship while you’re away, I’m here to provide reliable and loving care. I’m a swim trainer at the Canine Fitness Center in Crownsville, where I have the opportunity to work with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I have extensive experience caring for elderly dogs, injured dogs needing extra patience and attention, young puppies learning the ropes, and active dogs who are simply there to have fun and stay healthy. I’m comfortable adapting to each dog’s individual needs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. At home, I have my own furry crew: my 5-year-old Labrador Retriever, Scorchy Paws, and my two cats, Pete (11) and Tommy (10). They’ve taught me that every pet has their own quirks, routines, and ways of showing love. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll treat your animals with the same care, patience, and affection that I give my own. I can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending my time around animals and creating a schedule that allows me to give them the attention they deserve. I’m currently working part time, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and spending quality time with pets in my care. I’m typically available Sundays and Mondays, along with one additional weekday that varies depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to work with pet parents to find a schedule that fits their needs and their pet’s routine. Whether it’s a morning walk, a midday check-in, playtime, feeding routines, or simply providing companionship while you’re away, I love being able to make pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. For drop-in visits, I’m happy to help with meals, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and giving them the attention they need while you’re away. For walks, I’ll make sure they get exercise, enrichment, and a chance to enjoy some time outside. I’ll always take the time to learn your pet’s personality, habits, and any specific care instructions you have. I know pets feel most comfortable when their routine stays familiar, so my goal is to provide dependable care while giving you peace of mind that they’re being looked after.
“It was Majdoline’s second time to look after our senior cats, and she did a wonderful job again. It was nice and pleasant to come home to a clean and tidy house and knowing the kitties had been well taken care of. Thank you, Majdoline!!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. Wherever there was a dog, that’s where I would be! I’ve had experience caring for newborn puppies to elderly dogs. I’ve cared for a litter of 6 puppies at a time and dog sat 5 energetic dogs. I am also pet first aid certified. I take caring for our furry friends very seriously! I am currently working part time and going to school 3 days a week, so I have plenty of time to take care of pups. I have a flexible schedule so I am open to walking and sitting during various hours of the day. I live in a town house with 1 adult, a dog, and two younger kids( A family of 4). My pup loves dogs and gets along tremendously well with other dogs. If have a variety of crates so if need be I would be able to separate the dogs. There are also multiple rooms in the house so is your pup isn’t a big fan of children they would be able to stay separate. As far as dog sitting in a clients home, any instructions that are given will be followed.
About: Dogs, cats, horses, pigs, I’ve taken care of them all. From the smallest of animals to the largest I have experience the mental aptitude to handle multiple animals. I have taken on rescue dogs, and cats for 3+ years, and been the go to person by friends and family for watching their pets for extended periods. For our boarding dogs I can provide free bathing, safe paw clipping (granted the dog allows it), minor grooming of small dogs, a safe and fun environment. I’m currently living with my boyfriend so the dogs will get double the loving. He is a full time work from home employee with the leisure of working on his own time and pace. I’m a freelance graphic designer with the ability put all my needs towards animals at a moments notice. With the purchase of our house, and our family living near by we hardly travel and can accept pets at a moments notice. Our house is barebones with not a lot to get into. With the addition of multiple pets we understand that some animals may get anxious. We have the ability to separate animals between areas of the house (upstairs and downstairs) while providing them plenty of room still, and walks done individually at the clients request. Our most unique feature is all walks can safely be performed on our own land and doesn’t need to be done in busy areas. We sit on 2.5 acres perfect for walking, and for the more adventurous dogs we have 20 acres just across the street. We require all dogs to be treated with a flea and tick medicine, if you think your dogs medicine will lapse while in our care feel free to leave it with us and we will get it applied. Fleas are an unfortunate common occurrence especially when you have a large amount of dogs come in for boarding, day care and more.
“Joshua was fantastic with my cat Athena. They got along famously when he came for a visit, and I was very happy with the updates he shared during my 9-day trip. He was flexible and responsive and I would happily book with him again.”

Follow up to earlier review. Jim and Laurie are the best. They take care of their charges like they are their own. They take even better care of the owners😊. Last minute add-ons, dealing with the app, filling water bowl when I forget…. Worth every penny they earn.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
