“Matt stayed with my two pups for a week and took great care of them. He was also kind enough to water my flowers and garden while I was away. I had peace of mind knowing my home and pups were in great care. I highly recommend Matt and hope to use him again.”
“Lana was absolutely amazing! ❤️ We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Our pets absolutely loved her, and it gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and capable hands while we were away. She was wonderful with our pets, kept us updated, and treated them like they were her own. 🐾 We came home to happy pets, and that says everything! We will definitely be using Lana again and again! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable to take care of their fur babies. ❤️🐶🐱”
“Briana was great with our pups! She stopped by for a home visit before the dog sitting, and was great with communication before and during the stay. The pups looks happy and well cared for when we returned.”
“Heather was wonderful house sitting for our dog and cat. We enjoyed the pictures and texts daily,so we could see how they were doing. Our pets ate well and were very at home with Hearher. They loved her, and we feel the same.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by cats and dogs my entire life and have over the last 8 years been a pet parent myself! I currently have 6 cats and 1 sweet, cat-loving dog which has made me very familiar with different pet personalities, routines, and individual needs. My dog has also struggled with separation anxiety since he was first adopted and I worked patiently with him to help him feel more comfortable and secure. This assured me even more the importance of patience, consistency, understanding, and creating a calm, loving environment for animals who may need a little extra reassurance. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, playful, or just loves to cuddle, I’ll treat them with the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and my goal is to make sure both you and your pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away! I currently am a stay at home mama, homeschooling my young kiddo so I have plenty of flexibility during the week and weekends to hang out and love on your pets. I strive to create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where every pet feels right at home! In my home, there is a designated cat room that only my kitties and humans can access, giving my cats a peaceful space to relax and have their own privacy when needed. There are also plenty of cozy beds, blankets, and comfy spots for naps, cuddles, and snuggles! My home has a spacious, open-floor basement and main level, providing lots of room for indoor playtime, toys, and fun! I also live near several parks and in a walkable neighborhood where I enjoy taking my furry friends on walks, exploring, and getting fresh air! When caring for pets in your home, I do my best to maintain their normal routines so they feel safe, happy, and comfortable in their familiar surroundings. Whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love and attention.
About: I don't think I've ever not had a dog! I have taken care of dogs of all ages and backgrounds growing up not only did I dog sit for friends and family, but my family fostered rescue dogs for the mid-atlantic german shorthair pointer rescue. I have some rudimentary puppy training knowledge, and I’m very comfortable around puppies! I am well versed in senior dog care including administering medications. I also have experience in dogs that have some mild to medium temperament issues from working with rescue dogs and my past dog sitting experience. I am an early bird so it would be easy for me to cater a short commute to school or fit in some morning exercise for your pup. I am a college student who has class every day during the week, from mid-morning the earliest being nine thirty and ending early in the afternoon two o'clock at the latest. I am very active and I often go for runs/walks in the evening and I would love to have a dog along come with me! At home I have two very active dogs and I have had very high energy dogs my entire life at home. I’m always throwing a dog toy either into the pool or a ball in the yard. I treat all of my clients dogs like my own! Even if it's just for a quick visit or a walk!
About: As the proud owners to two wonderful little rescue dogs, a cat, some chickens, guinea fowl, goats and sheep, we know how hard it can be sometimes to find care for your pets and farm animals while you are away. We will provide the same level of care and kindness that I would want and expect for our own spoiled pets. Trust is an important part of pet care and petsitting, and we want you to be able to confidently, and without worry, leave your pampered pups and kitties in our care. We live on a small farm in rural Western Maryland, about 20 minutes west of Frederick. We have experience with all kinds of animal care, from horses, cows, goats, sheep, and poultry. We are currently able to provide drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and a variety of farm animals, as well as house or farm sitting, and in home boarding, as well as hourly dog park style use of our large fenced yard. Your pets will be a happy addition to our family in our home! Our whole property is fenced by 4 ft or taller board and wire fencing, with smaller areas sectioned off in the front and back yards. The driveway is gated and secure. We want your pets to feel as safe as our own. Leah and Andrew are both available for petsitting services. We currently work only at home, tending our farm homestead, and have a flexible schedule. We are able to drop in one or two times a day, or less or more often, as needed. We treat every animal as if it were our own and provide a level of care that we would expect from our pet care provider.
About: I’m the person who sees an animal and immediately greets them with the warmth of an old friend. I’ve felt a bond and (to the reluctance of my parents) an un spoken duty to protect and care for animals in need since childhood. At our house we had pets of all sizes and species and dogs were considered a part of the family. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets with the same high standard of care and attention that I would want for my own. I am currently working from home and my schedule grants me the flexibility to accommodate last minute bookings. Feel free to reach out if you’re in a bind! I make house calls for check-ins/potty breaks ect. and I’m happy to include a walk to give your fur babe some much needed outdoor time while you’re away.
“We happily had Laurie spend a long weekend with our 2 dogs at our house and everything was great! She sent lots of photos of the dogs and they seemed very much like they enjoyed themselves. She even got my picky dog to eat. Respectful with the house and we returned to happy dogs and a clean house.”
“Amber was great - she met with us last second ahead of the stay, just to ensure our dog was comfortable with her. When she did stay with Cocoa, she gave lots of updates and made sure she was good to go before leaving. Absolutely would hire again, thanks Amber!”
About: I would be honored to take care of your pets! I have 10 years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, including feeding, walking, playtime, administering medications, and cleaning litter boxes. Additionally, I have experience with anxious dogs (as I have an anxious pup of my own). I have taken care of many friends’ pets, and I always love becoming BFFs with new pets! I will go above and beyond for your pets and treat them as my own! I’m currently working in Frederick, and am available for pet/house sitting and dog walking in the Frederick area! I work M-F 9 am-5 pm, and have full availability for evenings and weekends! I have a fenced in yard, plenty of toys, and a dog of my own! There are also plenty of friendly pups in the neighborhood!
“Adriene sent me pictures and videos throughout the stay. Communication was frequent and clear and my Sophie was doing great when I went back home. She took good care of the house as well. Overall great experience!”
“Kaila was amazing!! She took care of my German Shepherd while I was away for the weekend. She kept me updated the whole time and I’m so grateful she took such a good care of my baby!”
“Cared for our fur babies like her own and gave me such a peace of mind with this being my first time using a pet sitter. Received regular updates on my babies as well. 10/10 will book again!”
“Chelsy watched our Silky terrier Sean for several hours while we were attending a wedding. It’s obvious she has a love for animals. She was so compassionate and kind, and was very attentive to our small dog who suffers from separation anxiety. He was drawn to her immediately after she arrived at our Airbnb rental, and he appeared calm and stress-free after our return. We would highly recommend her!”

“Heather took great care of our pets and house while we were away on a weekend trip. She sent me photos and updates during the weekend and left the house in great condition. We will definitely use her services again in the future.”
About: People that know me best would tell you I'm the person at a party who's hanging with the family dog. I've had dogs for as long as I can remember and currently have two fur babies (Nala and Kovu). I work from home full time & have a flexible schedule, reliable transportation and a desire to help others give their pets more schedule freedom. I own two large breed dogs and care for a family members GSD regularly as well. I am well versed in dog breeds big and small.
About: I have had family dogs since I can remember and have been caring for them since around 9 years old. I'm currently studying to become a veterinary technician with a degree in animal science! I also am a former dog bather and groomer in training as well as a former kennel employee. A dogs love is unconditional and I feel that means they deserve everything and more! I am available 24 hours a day and would love to fill all 7 days of the week with fuzzy, slobbery friends! I do have occasional doctors appointments or visits with family and whatnot, but those should be reflected in my calendar! I will be accompanied by lots of love and lots of patience. I will feed and give medication as needed. If any housekeeping is needed I am happy to help, and I will walk, brush and let them outside as you ask, maybe even a nail trim if needed!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 974 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Keedysville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Keedysville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Keedysville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Keedysville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Keedysville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
