“I needed a last minute sitter and Tabitha came to the rescue. At first meeting her and Scout were fast friends. She did such a great job taking care of him. You can tell she truly takes pride and cares about the furry friends in her care. Thank you Tabitha! I appreciate you and would highly recommend!”
“Stephanie was awesome. I needed someone to come walk my puppy, my regular dog walker couldn’t do it and Stephanie was happy to help. She took Willow for a 1/2 hr walk made sure she had water. She sent plenty of pictures was very easy to communicate with just an overall sweet person! I really liked her and will use her in the future! Highly recommend Stephanie!”
“Erica is absolutely wonderful, and takes such good care of my very needy girl! And her notes on the walks are hilarious. I've already recommended her to some friends.”
“Shane and Brittany have been so great with me and my dog! I’m a worrier, especially when it comes to my dog, since she isn’t always a walk in the park. Shane and Brittany have been very patient with answering all my questions and giving feedback on Gucci’s daily walks. They have also been very attentive to Gucci’s needs. I couldn’t ask for better!”
About: *MY BOOKING FOR NEW CLIENTS IS FULLY CLOSED AT THIS TIME* Hey! My name is Briana and I grew up with groomers and animal rescuers for parents. I was taught how to birth, wean, potty train, and care for many types of animals. I have worked in my parents grooming shop to help over the years and this included walking and bathing dogs. I have not only work experience and lived experience but also my passion for animals especially being a cat/dog mom myself. I have special experience with senior dogs and puppies, including wound care, medicine needs and dedicated time/attention. I can't wait to meet your furry loved one! I work Mon-Sat 7am-12pm at my fulltime job but am able to house sit and do drop ins around that schedule. I would be leaving around 6/630am and back around 12:30/1pm to handle any care needs. I am unable to host animals inside of my home due to my own cat not being a friendly guy. In my clients home I follow all rules set in place as well as keeping your furry loved one comfortable in their existing routines or whatever the client's expectations would be. I prefer taking written directions just so I have something I can always check back to ensure the most efficient care.
“Great sitter, she watched them for 3 days while we were on vacation. They were well taken care of and we did a pre meet beforehand and the dogs seemed to love her. Shes very nice and loves dogs.”
About: I’m particularly fond of taking care of the most finicky and quirky pets with care, firmness and patience. Skilled at administering meds, going for long walks and spoiling with treats. I work per diem, so I have a lot of time to spare with your pet! Available for boarding on the weekends anytime after 2pm. I have a cat tower at home that’s strategically placed in front of a birdfeeder attached to the window. It makes for an excellent front row seat for hours of birdwatching.
“Whitney always does a great job with our Senior pup. He can’t always walk the full time if it is hot out but she still hangs around for snuggles! I know he is in good hands!”
“I could not be happier with Sam and the excellent care he provided for my dog, Walter! I needed to be out of town for the better part of a week, and having just moved to town, did not have any friends or family to watch after my large canine; Sam to the rescue! I had never used this service or this site before, so initially was a tad skeptical. After Sam's quick response, and then after meeting him in person, I knew Walter would be in good hands. I initially approached him requesting two walks per day, but due to his reasonable pricing, I suggested that I would be interested in adding a third walk every day. Even though I'm sure it was a bit out of the way, he accepted the extra work with alacrity. On top of all this, when I needed to put Walter on antibiotics last-minute, Sam was more than happy to administer the medicine. It was clear from the "Rover Cards" that Walter was getting great walks, and truly first-rate overall care. I would absolutely use Sam's service again, and would recommend him to anyone needing hassle-free, reliable care. I hope he is available if and when I need him again. Thanks Sam!”
“Mel is fantastic with Molly and Buz. She’s very flexible with my crazy schedule and ready to help with visiting family’s pets ranging from an American Lab to a couple of Boston Terriers. She also kept my plants going when I was unexpectedly out of town.”
“Sean is very kind, detail oriented and communicative. He went above and beyond to try and tailor the visits and walks to my pup’s specific needs. Looking forward to working with him again!”
About: I am new to pet sitting on this platform, but not new to caretaking for pets. I specialize in senior pet care, especially cats with CKD. I am very experienced in giving medications orally or injection, administering subq fluids and lots of extra cuddles are very important! My husband and I enjoy traveling, but found it very hard to find a pet sitter that was well versed in caring for senior cats, especially cats with kidney disease. I will care for your babies as I would my own. They depend on us for safety and I do not take that lightly. I will treat them with respect and kindness because thats how I would want my babies to be treated while I’m away. Our pets are nervous enough while we’re away, so whatever I can do to make their lives a little less stressful, I will certainly do!
About: Two dog lovers with lots of experience caring for dogs and other animals. We are happy to watch your dog in our home or yours, or to just come take them out for walks and exercise. We'll work to meet your dog's specific needs! Our own dog, Tiger, loves to play and is always happy to have a new friend but can also be kept separate if necessary. Dogs are allowed wherever they want in the house, including beds and furniture, and have frequent access to the gated backyard. One or both of us is home most of the day so your pup would not be left alone! Let us know your dog's needs and we'll make sure to keep them happy and well cared for.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. As a proud cat parent to my own cat, I know how much peace of mind matters when you have to leave your furry family members behind. While I'm new to the Rover platform, pet care is second nature to me—back in college, I regularly helped my classmates with pet sitting, looking after both dogs and cats. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat needs some gentle loving attention, I treat every pet with the exact same care and devotion I give my own. Because I work remotely and part-time from home, my schedule is wonderfully flexible. I am basically free and can easily find time for your pet any day or any time. Whether it's a mid-day walk or constant companionship, we can easily figure out a routine that works best for you and your pet! Safety and trust are my absolute top priorities. Whether I am dropping in for pet sitting or taking your dog out for an engaging walk, I treat every pet with the utmost care and respect. As an experienced cat owner myself, I understand how crucial it is to respect an animal's boundaries, safety needs, and home environment. You can count on me for clear communication, reliable updates, and treating your home and pets like my own.
“Emma has been on time with my big guys (Rocko, Atticus, and Axel). We sat down for a “meet and greet” ahead of starting the walks to make sure it was a good fit, and so far it has been great. She will be watching them while I go away; I’m sure they’ll be looking forward to her visit.”
About: I love animals and enjoy spending time with them. I have dog-sat for one year. I also have experience caring for pets within my family. I am a college student, therefore, I have the summers off. My schedule is flexible, and I am available full-time. I can stop by when needed. I understand the deep love others have for their pets. Therefore, I want to ensure pet parents feel comfortable when away. I will communicate with owners and send updates about their pets. I will also ensure that spaces are clean and the pets are attended to!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Linthicum
We are really happy we asked Sam to walk our dog while we were on vacation. Our dog sitter told us that as well as taking Eric for his full hour's walk, he played with him before and after the walk. And Eric loved Sam, he waited for him by the door every morning and greeted him excitedly.
Cheyenne is kind, flexible, and quick to respond. My dog can be a little shy at first, and Cheyenne was more than happy to do a meet and greet beforehand to get to know her and understand her needs before their walk. I really appreciated her willingness to make sure my dog felt comfortable. Would definitely recommend!
Kathi did a fantastic job walking my dog, Allie. She was always on time, good communicator, showed she genuinely cared about Allie's well-being. She made sure Allie got good, fulfilling walks and paid close attention to her needs the entire time. I’m so grateful and highly recommend her!
Catherine is a wonderful dog walker. She has a great rapport with my dogs and makes their health and safety her top priority. She communicates before, during, and after her walks with my dogs and sends fun photos. I highly recommend Catherine as a dog walker. Thanks for another great walk, Catherine. The dogs are happy and tired.
This was my first time using Rover and I was a little anxious about leaving my fur baby with someone, but Nakea eased my anxiety. She provided pictures upon pick up and drop off for walks, she was extremely communicative throughout the process and answered any questions I had. I highly recommend Nakea and will be using her for future walks!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Linthicum is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $25 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Linthicum. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Linthicum after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Linthicum. On Rover:
- 85% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
