“We are so glad Jordan was available to care for our elderly pups and house sit. From the initial interview to the day we arrived home her professionalism and attention to our pups and our home never wavered. Jordan updated daily, morning and evening with photo’s, and was very responsible and attentive to our pups special needs. When we arrived home our house was in perfect order and our pups safe and sound. Thank you Jordan”


“Shemoy was wonderful! We have had bad experiences with Rover dog sitters in the past, but she made us feel very at ease while watching our dog. She was very responsive and reliable. She even left the sweetest Christmas treats for my dog. You can tell she really cares about animals. I will definitely book with her again.”

“Samuel did a fantastic job watching our dog who is both quite reactive and recovering from ACL surgery. We already rebooked him for next month and highly recommend him for anyone needing peace of mind while they’re away from their fur baby.”

About: I have taken care of many dogs ever since I was a kid. Personally, I have three dogs, two golden retrievers and one golden doodle. I have dog sat for friends and family with many different breeds and in different locations over the years. I am a teacher in Calvert county during the school year. After middle of June, I will be free to walk or dog sit all day everyday unless I am booked ahead of time. I have three dogs of my own so I already am used to walking dogs and taking care of them all hours of the day I have a small fenced in area and a crate where I am located. I also have easily accessible areas for walking and enjoying the outdoors. My three dogs are friendly but I am also willing to come to your house for walks, check-in’s, or dog sitting if that is preferred. I have experience with going to others houses to dog sit. For walks, I can do short walks or long walks depending on owners requests.
“Hannah is so patient and understanding with our anxious shepherd puppy. She went out of her way to help with our chickens too! We feel so secure with her staying in our home and treating our dogs with the most cuddly love.”

“Katarina was very friendly and took great care of our dogs. She sent lots of pictures to let us know how things were going. She was very responsive and we came home to very happy pups. I would recommend her to watch your pets.”


“Elizabeth was attentive to Daisy's needs per the 'care & feeding' instructions we provided. Just as importantly, she treated Daisy as if her own, which was apparent by Daisy snoozling on Betsy's luggage as she prepared to leave.”

“Juliana was a joy to work with and took thoughtful care of my home and dog! She was knowledgeable, kind, communicative, and patient with Hugo getting used to her. Upon my return, she had followed instructions thoroughly and carefully, and Hugo was well cared for and happy. And so am I! Thank you, Juliana!”

About: I am a responsible and dependable college student who genuinely enjoys caring for animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I am attentive to feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions provided by owners. I also believe in keeping pet parents updated with regular messages and photos so they can have peace of mind while their pets are in my care. In my own personal experience I have worked with pets ever since I was 13 and have loved animals my whole life. I have watched multiple animals at one time, administered medication, provided walks, provided cuddles/play times, and provided over night stays for the past few years. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply having a calm companion around, I will provide patient and loving care tailored to their needs. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own and ensure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. I am currently working a part-time internship related to my major for school. This internship only takes up 15 hours of my time during the week. I am available to play and care for your pets any time during the weekend and when I am not working. As I do not have my schedule yet, I estimate most of my time will be spent with your pets in the evening during the week and whenever we can make work! I am very flexible. Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. In a client's home, I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and any household rules. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and companionship while their owners are away. I understand that pets are often most comfortable in their familiar surroundings, so I work to maintain their normal routine and minimize stress. I also pay close attention to any changes in behavior or health and will communicate promptly with owners if I have any concerns. I treat every home and pet with respect, keeping living areas clean, securing doors and gates, and ensuring pets remain safe at all times. I provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Spazz had some diarrhea issues but I think it was because he was missing us. Kim did an excellent job with Spazz and I'm thankful I met her back in 2022. Kim is very knowledgeable with dogs and takes her job very seriously with all of the animals she works with and I couldn't be more pleased.”


About: Hi there! My name is Hannah, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other pets, so being around animals feels completely natural to me. I also have hands-on experience working at Interlude Pet Resort & Spa, where I helped care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. This included feeding, cleaning, walking, and making sure each dog felt safe and comfortable. In addition, I’ve provided pet sitting and dog walking for friends, family, and family friends. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine and give them the attention and care they’re used to. I’m very patient, reliable, and genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you always know your pet is doing well while you’re away! I’m currently not working so i’m available all days of the week! 9:00am - 11:00pm all days of the week! I also would never pass up the opportunity to love on your fur baby! I’m used to scheduled feed times and walking bigger and smaller dogs. I like to go outside and throw a ball/frisbee or any other toy that can be used to get some exercise in.
“Stephen was excellent with our dog. He went above and beyond to make sure she was safe and felted loved. I will definitely use him again and highly recommend him He also took very good care of our home”

“Linda was awesome. Sadie was relaxed and happy while in her care. It was nice to go on vacation and know that Sadie was being well cared for. I would recommend Linda to anyone who wants their pet to stay home while they are gone. I will definitely request Linda again if we go away.”


“I contacted India on relatively short notice for pet sitting. She was available to come meet us and our dog before our trip. India did a wonderful job taking care of our older German Shepherd who is dealing with some skin conditions. She was very caring and followed all of the instructions that I left for medicine and wound care. We appreciate the care that she gave our girl and will definitely book with India again to take care of our dog. We also have a bearded dragon and fish that she took care of as well. Highly recommend India for pet sitting.”


About: I’ve had experience with animals at all ages and different breeds. I’ve had my golden doddle puppy in college for 2 years while playing division 1 lacrosse so I know the importance for animal love but I am also dependable, passionate, and trustworthy. I’m available 24/7 and I am very flexible and understand summers can be busy and unpredictable. I will work with whatever time works best for you and your animals :) I have a fenced yard and a dog of my own that loves company and is very friendly. I have creates if need be and also in a nice neighborhood for long walks :)
“Kristen was absolutely wonderful with my Pomeranian mix, Jasper, over Spring break. From the very beginning, she was flexible with my schedule and made the whole handoff seamless and stress-free. It was clear she genuinely cared about Jasper’s comfort and wellbeing. She was attentive, communicative, and completely dedicated to making sure he was happy and well looked after while I was away. Knowing Jasper was in such good hands allowed me to fully enjoy my time away without a second of worry. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I will absolutely be reaching out to Kristen again and recommend her without any hesitation!”


“Kathleen was the ultimate dog sitter for us. She stayed at our home with the dogs while we were traveling. It was perfection! We only hope she's available again for us in the future!”

About: I have fur babysitting experience over the past year. I understand what it’s like to have to put your full and undivided attention into a child to ensure its safety and well being, and do nothing different with the pets I take care of. They will be no need to worry when I’m taking care of them. Currently working part time and in school at CSM. Can be very flexible with scheduling to ensure the pets get the proper love and affection that they deserve and need. I give the pets constant love so that they don’t feel down when their owner isn’t home. I understand that pets can feel sad or get into a rut when their parents are not home, but I will do everything to make sure they feel nothing but love. I send lots of photos so you will feel connected while away.
Johnstown pet parents share their Rover experiences
Juliana was the sweetest! She did everything we asked her too to care for our pup and went above and beyond in giving him love. Juliana communicated each time she went over to let our dog out and sent multiple pictures every day. She was amazing and I would definitely trust her with our pet again!
