“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Sara was incredibly attentive with our dogs and cat, kept us updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and even noticed a possible tick on one of our dogs, something we were so grateful she caught. We came home to happy pets and a tidied-up house. She truly went above and beyond. Highly recommend!”
“Sabrina is the absolute best!!!! I feel so blessed that we found her. She’s such a kind person with the sweetest energy. The animals flock to her!! She’s the only person we’ll be using from now on.”
About: I have cared for pets of my own since I was 7 years old. Dogs mostly, but also cats, birds, turtles, rabbits, and fish. Now I am a mature, reliable professional who loves pets as much as ever, but unfortunately my living situation is not ideal to have my own right now. I look forward to connecting with folks who need an assist in caring for their animals and loving them as if they were my own. My schedule is somewhat flexible with plenty of early morning and afternoon availability, as well as evenings opening up at 9 or 10 pm. This is true 7 days a week with 2 rotating days off each week. I typically have one 3-day weekend available each month. My place is not conducive to have your pets stay. But I am happy to come to you, whether for a walk, a feeding, playtime, some combination of all of the above. I also welcome the opportunity to stay over in your home if the need arises and trust has been established.
About: Hello there, I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have had my own dogs for the last 15 years, and love taking care of and interacting with all animals. I have experience with training dogs to leash walk, taking them outside to the dog park, taking them to the beach for a swim, and playing fetch with a slobbery tennis ball. LOL I also have plenty of experience loving on cats (ones that are ok with cuddles, that is!), and playing chase the wand. I have pet sat mice, hamsters, bunnies, guinea pigs, and even a chameleon and a bearded dragon! I love small, large, and in between size animals and there are no breeds that I refuse to work with or for. Allow me to play, walk, and take care of your animals as if they were my own. I will send text updates and pictures to help ease your mind. I assure you, we will be best friends in no time! Please note that while pet sitting at your home, I will likely have my 12 year old child with me. I will never leave my child alone in your home, I will always take them with me if I need to run an errand. I have an open schedule and plenty of time to take care of whatever is needed. Morning, afternoon, and night walks or visits are no problem! I will come into your home to care for your animals so that they will be most comfortable. I will feed, walk, play, and clean up after your animals as if they were my own and it was my home.
About: I've raised 2 daughters to adulthood and 7 cats over the years. I've dog sat for neighbors and answered local ads for sitting/walks. I have experience giving cats medicine and cleaning up messes.I love animals! I'm currently a stay home Mom looking for a flexible income while getting excerise and being my own boss. I use to own a business so I'm organized, responsible and dependable. I currently have 2 cats who I feed daily, one gets medicine mixed into her dinner wet food and she's on a diet. My other cat is free fed dry food all day because she has a fast metabolism and is a perfect weight, plus she gets wet food for dinner. Their litter boxes get cleaned every other day. So, I'm use to special feeding needs of fur babies.
“Hannah took such great care of our 2 sr pups. She communicated regularly when our bulldog's allergies flared up. Our dogs were happy and content when we got home. The house was also nice and tidy.”
“Maria is the best! She was so kind, accommodating to our specific needs, communicated very well, and loved my kitten as if he were her own. We are incredibly thankful to have found her and look forward to working with her again in the future.”
“Best house sitter that there ever was!!! She washed and folded the laundry that she used (we didn’t ask her to), she helped out with Buddy, our Elf on the Shelf, and was great with communication.”
“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!”
“First time using Rover and leaving my 10-week-old puppy, and Ava was absolutely fantastic. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day, and I could tell he was having so much fun. She kept him on his schedule and was clearly experienced with puppies. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands- will definitely be using Ava again!”
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!
“Matt was very professional & attentive. Followed our tips & instructions precisely. He was pleasant & went out of his way to assure our 12 year old sheppard felt loved and comfortable. I will use Matt in the future!”
About: I’ve spent years caring for pets and homes for family, friends, and private clients, and I understand that both come with a real responsibility. When someone entrusts me with their home and animals, I take that trust seriously. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, as well as cats, and I’m happy to follow established routines for feeding, walks, treats, medications, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ve cared for pets who need extra patience and consistency, including a young puppy who was still being potty trained. I also understand that every animal has its own personality and routine, and I make an effort to keep their life as normal and comfortable as possible while their people are away. My house-sitting experience goes well beyond simply being present in the home. I’ve cared for plants and gardens, watered lawns and operated sprinklers, brought in mail and packages, handled basic outdoor chores, and kept an eye on the property. I’ve also handled unexpected responsibilities, including meeting contractors, photographing completed work before authorizing payment, arranging appointments, receiving deliveries, and taking care of errands for homeowners while they were away. Communication is an important part of my approach. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos so homeowners can see that their pets and property are doing well. I know how reassuring it can be to see your dog happily lounging on the couch or your garden looking healthy when you're hundreds of miles away. As a freelance writer, I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to build pet care naturally into my day. I can structure my work around a pet’s routine rather than expecting a pet to fit around a traditional 9-to-5 schedule. Whether a pet needs morning or evening walks, regular meals, medication, playtime, or simply some companionship during the day, I have the flexibility to be there. I’m also able to spend extra time with pets who need more attention or have specific routines. I enjoy the rhythm of pet care and the opportunity to give each animal the consistency, attention, and companionship they’re accustomed to while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow their normal feeding, walking, playtime, medication, and bedtime routines, while giving them plenty of attention and companionship. Because I’m a freelance writer with a flexible schedule, I can devote time to pets who need more than a quick visit. I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets, following special instructions, and adjusting to each pet’s personality and needs. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pets. I keep things clean and secure, communicate regularly, and provide updates with photos and videos so you know your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Casey did a great job taking care of our pups! She sent pics and they were very well taken care of and happy. We have her booked again for next month, so I’m sure our girls are looking forward to her staying with them again.”
“Very communicative and kept dogs busy during his stay. My crew is high energy and everyone was properly tuckered out when we returned home. Would recommend and plan on booking again.”
About: While I’m newer to professional pet care, I have plenty of love and attention to give your furry family member! I’m happy to walk, play with, cuddle, and care for your dog as if they were my own. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I’ll always treat them with patience, kindness, and lots of affection. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s usual routine and send plenty of updates and pictures along the way. My goal is simple: you feel comfortable while you’re away, and your pup gets a new friend who is genuinely excited to see them. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule, and I have flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to work with each pet’s usual routine whenever possible, whether they need an energetic walk or just some company and attention while their person is away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet and entering your home. I’ll follow your care instructions closely, respect your pet’s normal routine and boundaries, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide photos and updates during visits so you know how your pet is doing.
“Hayden was fantastic! We have 3 high energy pitbulls and Hayden was wonderful with them. During the initial meet and greet, he was warm and engaging with them. They adored him. During his stay, he was communicative, respectful, and took wonderful care of our furbabies!”
About: Hi there! I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets and genuinely love animals of all kinds. I provide a safe, loving, and attentive environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart is the personalized attention I give to each pet. I understand that every animal has unique needs, whether it's an energetic puppy that needs plenty of playtime and patience, or a senior pet that requires extra care, gentle handling, and medication reminders. I enjoy keeping pets active, engaged, and happy through walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to give pet parents peace of mind by providing reliable care, updates, and plenty of love while they're away. 🐾❤️ I currently work full time but have time in the early afternoon and evenings to watch your furbabies! I have own four dogs - two Goldens, one maltipoo and currently a toy poodle. Animals hold a special place in my heart! I'm available anytime after 2:30pm, evenings overnights and weekends! I love to be outdoors and go on walks with my son! Your pup will be loving the outdoors when we go. I live in a condo and there's room for some fun house play and then an open field area to go outside and run around!

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 Libertytown 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 Libertytown 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 Libertytown 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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.
