“Carly is fantastic! Carly took care of my 5 fur children (cats) while I was on vacation. She stayed overnights for 3 nights, played with my babies and administered 3 different meds for my senior boy. Carly sent me updates and photos throughout my vacation, and respond immediately to any questions I had. I am so impressed with how quickly my two shy cats warmed up to her. When I got home my cats were happy and the house was as clean as I left it. She even ran all the bowls through the dishwasher, refilled the litter pans and vacuumed to make sure I came home with no chores to do. I will be using Carly again for all my trips in the future.”
“Kerri was amazing. Stayed at our house and took excellent care of our Great Dane while we were away on a long weekend trip. Sent us updates and left everything super neat and tidy! Look forward to having her sit again :)”
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my difficult puppy for over a week! She kept me updated, sent me pictures, and made me feel comfortable. I cannot recommend her enough for your pet care needs. Thank you so much Sarah!! Alfie and I appreciate you!!!”
About: I have over two years of professional kennel experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and personalities. I'm skilled with puppies, seniors, medication routines, and building trust with shy or anxious animals. Every pet I meet gets the same love and attention I give my own. I'm available throughout the day for walks, playtime, and companionship. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life, so it feels completely natural to make time for your pets, too. I keep pets safe, comfortable, and cared for like they're my own. I stick to your routines, keep a close eye on details, and make sure everyone feels at ease.
“Shae did an amazing job with my fur babies. Made me feel at ease while I was on vacation with the daily pictures... Would definitely recommend her and I will definitely be using her services again... Thank You So Much Shae... Until next time 🐶😼😁”
“Murphy and Milo loved having Paris sit for them and everything went perfectly. We love the fact that she sent pictures. We highly recommend her, and Hope to have her sit again in the future”
About: I have grown up with dogs for the majority of my life. Dog breeds like pugs, Dalmatian, Australian Shepard, pitbull, boxer, doodle, blue heeler, and more! I grew up on a farm with horses, sheep cows, cats, dogs! All kinds of animals 🥰 I am very passionate about animals being taken care of the way they deserve! Along with that I have also spent 5+ years caring for snakes and other reptiles Typically I work in Sparks MD Tuesdays and Thursdays, and Shrewsbury PA most other days. My schedule varies at times and my shifts ranges anywhere from 5 hours to 8 hours don't have any pets at the moment, my townhouse doesn't allow them sadly 😔 but I have had many pets in my life ranging from cats, dogs, reptiles, hamsters, horses you name it! Pets are family and I always treat anyone's animals as such!
“This was the first time hiring Melisha for a multiple day/night stay, and we’re checking the calendar to figure out when to hire her next. Updates and pictures provided regularly. The 2 dogs and cat couldn’t have been in more capable hands. Even with a bit of a ruckus with the 2 huskies hanging up on the poor cat, Melisha was calm, cool and collected. I can’t come up with more words of praise for all that she did in the care of our 3 pets. She’s going to be tired of seeing our name pop up in her notifications. :)”
“Louis was great with our high energy Labs he sat with for the week.They were always happy in the pictures he sent . House and yard were just as we left it. Thanks Louis for a amazing job!”
About: As a college student studying Zoology, animals and their care are more than a side hustle or a hobby: they’re my world. Apart from my academic coursework in animal care and welfare, I have more than eight years of personal care and volunteer experience with numerous animals, including but not limited to: cats, dogs, horses, rats and mice, hamsters, snakes, various types of lizards and amphibians, goats, chickens, sheep, cattle, and even invertebrates such as tarantulas and scorpions. Rest assured, I’ll never discriminate against your furry pal! I have experience giving oral medication, both liquid and pill, as well as insulin injections and subcutaneous fluids. I also have experience caring for elderly animals — like my 18 year old cat, Maya! I can provide feeding, brushing, hoof care, walking, exercise, medication, play time, turning out, litterbox cleaning and much more! I have a driver’s license and my own transportation, and my hours and pay are flexible. I am willing to drive 60-90 minutes depending on needs. As mentioned prior, I have extensive prior experience volunteering at various shelters, vets and farms assisting with animal care, as well as my own personal experience caring for a diverse array of pets. I am happy to gather recommendations from organizations I work with. While caring for your pet or pets, I will regularly keep in contact with you and update you with both text and photos (if desired), along with keeping a dedicated spreadsheet of feeding/watering/grooming times and overall health to guarantee your peace of mind. I am capable of providing pet care across a flexible schedule. I can provide early care from 6-9 AM in the morning and any time after 4:20 PM on weekdays, as well as 24 hour care on weekends and overnight stays if needed. I am able to care for pets in a wide variety of ways thanks to expensive experience. Walking, feeding, litter-box cleaning, playtime, as well as insulin/subcutaneous fluid injections are all possible. I can also administer medication orally. Daily checkups as well as overnight stays are both possible.
About: I am an emergency nurse 2 days a week and a mom to 2 crazy girls full time. My availability on the weekends can vary because of my nursing job.

I have personal experience with dogs who are food or toy aggressive so those will not bother me. I am comfortable with crating dogs if needed and doing whatever is needed to keep your animals safe
About: With over 25 years of experience raising my own dogs and providing trusted house-and-pet sitting for friends and family, I offer a lifetime of dedicated care.

I treat every dog I watch with the same compassion and attention I give my own. Because I work during the day, I am primarily available for evening and weekend care, making me an ideal fit for owners who need a reliable presence while they are away or working late. Your pets will receive expert care in a loving, safe environment. Because I work during the day, I am primarily available for evening and weekend care, making me an ideal fit for owners who need a reliable presence while they are away or working late. I will treat your pets and your home with respect and care. Your animals and your home are safe with me! I am considerate and very responsible.
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life, ranging from puppies and kittens to reptiles and fish. I’m more than willing to do drop ins or even spend the night if you require. My schedule is very flexible, please reach out with and questions or concerns!

This makes me a great fit for morning feedings, midday potty breaks, evening walks, dinner visits, and overnight care. Weekends: I’m available with a flexible schedule and can accommodate visits throughout the day. Overnight Care: I’m available for overnight stays any day of the week, so your pets can enjoy consistent care and companionship while you’re away. I always strive to be reliable, communicative, and attentive, ensuring your pets receive the same love and care I give my own. Your pets will always be my top priority. I’ll make sure they’re well-fed, receive plenty of love, attention, and playtime, and have opportunities to relax, unwind, and enjoy lots of cuddles. I’ll also keep up with their daily care and hygiene, ensuring they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible.
“Jeff really went above and beyond this visit. First off, my cat was not doing well and needed a same-day vet appointment. Jeff took him to the vet and ended up needing to be there for a couple of hours. He called me to tell me about the appointment, plus gave my cat needed meds, and even went to the store to buy cans of tuna for him to eat! He is really caring and concerned. Highly recommend.”
“Hannah was fantastic! I am incredibly particular as are my dogs. I have high needs dogs, particularly seniors that require extra patience and attention to which Hannah provided exceptional care. She came through to care for my dogs on short notice and went above and beyond to care for them. I trust her and really appreciated how thoughtful, compassionate and patient she was I highly recommend Hannah. she was incredibly attentive and communicative. Again I am someone who’s incredibly particular and she exceeded my expectations. Thank you for everything Hannah.”
About: I have been watching dogs and cats full time since 2016. I am a housewife with 17years experience caring for my own dog. My children are animal lovers too. Right now we have a Central American Wood Turtle, a Leopard Gecko and Hermit Crabs. Also, in college I studied animal behavior. I love all animals and have had many different kinds of pets. I can watch farm animals such as chickens, ducks, goats,rabbits, and pigs. In addition, I can watch your pet at your place. I am trust worthy and neat. Finally, I am responsible and I will treat your dog like it is my own. Right now I am currently open from 5:40 to 9 pm. Please ask if you need to schedule a different time which most of the time I can be accommodating. I have a high fenced in yard that we check frequently. I can easily crate your dog if I go to walk other dogs or do drop in visits.
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.

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 Lineboro 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 Lineboro 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 Lineboro 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 , 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 .
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 .
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.
