“I have used Mary Jane twice now. I have yet to be disappointed, Mary is great at sending pictures and keeping me in the loop of what’s going on. My dogs gave her a run for her money this time but she was a trooper the whole time. I will be using her in the future for sure.”
About: I have years of experience going into homes and adjusting my schedule to try and keep pet care as close to their normal routine as possible. I’ve watched animals of many kinds and many ages. I always meet your pets before we make a firm plan to make sure it will be a good fit for both your animals and me. It’s important you’re able to enjoy a worry free trip knowing your pets are not stressed out in your absence. I do work full time and am mostly interested in helping you for a weekend getaway. I have an hour lunch break so it’s feasible to help with weekdays in the right location. Weekdays are more for helping second shift workers with walks and potty breaks as I can pop in after my own work day ends at 4:30. I do my best to stick to pet routines outlined by the client. It’s worth noting, I will generally not let your dogs off leash in an area without a fence. I will not risk them not returning to me. Exceptions are case by case based on dog training.
“Jazmin watched our two cats for a week. Each day I received multiple photos of them as well detailed accounts of how much they are and their overall activity level. She communicates amazingly and is always quick to respond. Will definitely be booking in the future. And my cats loved her!”
About: I know how it feels to leave your furry friends home alone. I’m here to give them the care they need so you can have peace of mind! I work a very flexible job that allows me to come and go. Weather you need someone to check in on your cat during the day, or take your pup for regular walks I’m your gal! I do not offer pet care in my own home. I am happy to offer services in your home! Where your animals feel most safe and comfortable.
About: I've taken care of family and friends dogs for years ranging from just checking in on them during the day to staying with them or taking them back home to stay with me. I currently work at the airport and have 3 hour gaps between flights to take car of animals between. I am week on week off so my availability is wide open when I am not at the airport. I have one dog that's super friendly, with a dog park in my apartment complexe as well as a dog park half a block away to take the dogs to go play.
About: I was born and raised around dogs! Mostly all animals. I’ve had all types of dogs, mostly Yorkies! I have a dog of my own along with two cats and a guinea pig! I will be able to be around your dog for roughly the entire time I have them. I do currently work part time at AMC theatres! I work Tuesday,Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday, at 5pm! I will be able to anytime during the week, as long as it’s before I work at 5, or on my day off! :) I will be able to work around my work schedule to fit to your needs as well. I have a mostly fenced yard, the way the yard is set up only the drive way is not fenced. I do have cameras all around the house which I have full access to! You’re dog will be in my view 24/7!
“Kendall did an amazing job! She was very communicative, sent pics of our pups, and just all around made us feel so comfortable leaving our pups in her care. We would definitely use Kendall again, the pups loved her and so did we!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid, and I’ve always loved it! I’ve walked dogs, played with cats, fed fish, and even helped care for more exotic animals. I also worked at a vet clinic for a year and a half, which gave me extra experience and knowledge about animal behavior, health, and how to notice when something might not be quite right. I truly enjoy caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I have a fairly flexible schedule and am happy to work with you to find times that work best for you and your pet. I usually recommend checking in on pets twice a day for meals, care, and some socialization. However, I am more than willing to check in more often if your pet needs it or if it would give you peace of mind while you’re away. I feed my own cat twice a day, but I am happy to follow each owner’s feeding schedule and provide more frequent meals if needed. I always respect an animal’s space if they do not want to be pet or play, while still giving them gentle encouragement and attention if they seem lonely or down. I have also given pet owners updates about their animals, including photos and videos, so they can feel connected and know their pets are doing well while they are away.

Drewe is the best sitter we have ever had! She goes above and beyond by making our pets feel loved while we are away. She also has extra patience for our little yappy Chihuahuas. Our pets cry alot when we are gone and when we got back home they didn't have any tears!! This was our second time booking with Drewe and we will definitely do it again in the future <3

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Laurel is $16 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $21 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
