About: I was an obedience instructor in high school, and took my Sheltie, Mistie, to earn our CD at dog shows. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and feel like I trust them more than people. I’ve never met a dog I was afraid of - bring on your “terrifying” pittie, we’ll be besties within an hour. I’m also great with the teeny, tiny dogs - I’m calm and soothing which puts them at ease. I work part time in Baltimore, so I am available most of the time! I love going on walks and exploring. I also love cuddles on the couch, as well as a fast-paced game of fetch! I will obsessively keep your baby in a leash when we are outside, and well as keep him/her away from other dogs, while out-and-about.
“Lin has been an amazing help for us. She goes above and beyond! She provides detailed insight into her visit and gives us great tips to help us train our puppy. Our puppy loves his time with her and will definitely be using Lin again! Highly recommend.”
“Rebecca took great care of my cats during the week I was gone. She is reliable, thorough, and obviously loves animals. I'll absolutely have Rebecca take care of my fur babies the next time I'm out of town. Beth”
“Brooke did fantastic taking care of my cats while I was away! She made sure to keep me updated with pictures and messages of how they were doing. They loved their play time and treats while mom was away :) Thank you Brooke!”
“Magda is an amazing sitter. She watched our 4 cats for the first time over Christmas break. She is incredibly punctual and attentive to all of our cats special needs and even brought potential house issues to our attention. Her communication is on point, from the meet and greet throughout the actual sitting. Wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”
“Any pup would be lucky to have Daniela as one of their people! My reactive dog is a big fan of hers. He is noticeably more relaxed on days that she came to see him while we were at work. Don’t hesitate to book with Daniela! She’s responsive and cares for your pets like her own.”
About: Hi there! I’ve had cats throughout childhood and through most of my adult life, so caring for animals has always been something I've loved. I’ve also helped out friends and neighbors by pet sitting for their cats and dogs. I've given medication and supplements to my own cats. I’m active and love being outdoors — walking, running, or hiking with a dog sounds like the perfect day to me! Several years ago, I actually had a Rover sitter care for my cat Baby when she was sick. She was very reliable — she kept me updated, showed so much compassion, and gave me total peace of mind. That experience really stuck with me and I aspire to be that same trusted, reliable sitter for others. My own fur babies have since crossed the rainbow bridge, so I don’t currently have pets at home — which means my schedule is flexible and I can give your fur babies my full attention. I’d love to meet your furry family members and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. ❤️ I ran my own business for 10 years and am taking some time off right now, so my schedule is flexible. I focus on overnight pet sitting, which means I can stay with your fur babies to keep them company, follow their normal routine, and make sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Keeping your fur babies safe is my top priority. I like to have a list of care instructions so I know exactly what they need, and I always ask for your vet’s contact info just in case. I’ll keep you updated and reach out right away if anything comes up. Since I do overnight stays in your home, I make sure to keep things comfortable and familiar for your fur babies so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. Overnight Care Guidelines To ensure a comfortable and successful stay for everyone: • Companion animals sleep in their own beds (I don’t share my bed). • Indoor cameras are turned off during my stay. • Homes are reasonably clean & tidy, and free of strong odors. • Clean linens are provided for my use. • A meet-and-greet is required prior to confirming a booking.
“When we returned for vacation, I noticed that my dog was well-trained. It seems that I not only hired a pet sitter but also a pat trainer. My neighbor informed me of her exceptional skills with my dog. Now they like to have her as pat sitter as well. She was very responsive and on time every time”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I’ve had multiple dogs that I’ve raised from puppies into adulthood. So I have experience with every age of dog I can give medication like it’s nobody’s business. I can also handle a puppy. I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I either work in the morning or in the afternoon so it gives me plenty of time to be with your dog and give them lots of love I have been dog sitting since four years and have always stayed at a person‘s house. I am a bit of a neat freak so I always clean and can promise that you will come back to a clean house.
About: With four years of pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, giving each one personalized attention, love, and reliable care. As a college student with a flexible part-time schedule, I have plenty of time to care for and play with dogs, giving them attention, walks, and love. In my home, I create a safe, comfortable space with plenty of toys, walks, and cuddles. In my clients’ homes, I follow their routines carefully, keeping pets relaxed, happy, and cared for just like they’re my own.
“Ashley was amazing with our cat sitting needs. Taking time to check food and water as well as changing out the litter box. She even took care of the plants that were in need of some water love during the heat!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have over 6 years of experience caring for pets. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping pets company. My background in caregiving has taught me to be patient, attentive, and dependable, especially when caring for pets with unique needs or routines. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll treat them with the same care and attention I would want for my own. I’m available for pet care primarily in the mornings and around midday, generally between 9 AM and 12 PM. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine and provide walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship while you’re away. I provide pet care exclusively in your home, where your pets can stay comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I’m respectful of your space and will follow your instructions carefully. I’ll make sure your pets receive attentive, loving care and are safe and comfortable throughout each visit.
About: Hi my name is Fran. I’m a mostly stay at home Mom in Mt. Airy with a 3 year old and 6 year old and 1 year old. We live on 5 acres, all fenced, across from the state park and in addition to 2 dogs have horses, chickens, and an outside cat. Both me and my husband have owned dogs all our lives, and experienced in animal care. Professionally, I’ve worked as a barn manager, dog groomer, dog walker, trainer, and dog handler for an Iditarod musher! I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10 years old and absolutely love it!!!! I care greatly about dogs and make sure that they are well taken care of with plenty of love and exercise. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover all of my life. As a little kid my childhood dog was my constant companion and when I wasn't with him I was with the neighbors' dogs. In my twenties I moved to Alaska where I pursued a career in dog mushing and for two years lived with 120 dogs! Unfortunately due to frostbite I had to move back to the east coast. Meet my pets I have 2 dogs, Cash a one year old Australian Shepherd and Littles a 15 year old Boston terrier mix. Both love to play!! Cash is still a puppy and will play all day long!! He loves every dog he meets. Littles is 15 and recently lost his sight He’ll try to keep up with Cash but mostly just loves to sleep. I also have 2 horses, Shadow and Dandy (the love of my life) in their late twenties, some chickens, and a barn cat. About my yard I live on five acres across from Patuxent State Park. We have a huge fenced in backyard, with lots of trails in walking distance! My experience administering medication Yes I have no problem administering medication. Including injections I’m currently a stay at home mom and almost always home so your dog will never be left alone for long periods of time!! My 5 year old is great with dogs and will give your animals plenty of love and attention!!! We have a large fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run! Your dog will be let out frequently and get plenty of exercise!! I try and take the dogs for a long walk at least once a day. Your dog will have free roam of the house, but we are more than happy to crate if you provide one. Our dogs eat in the am and pm, however we can accommodate your dogs feeding schedule.
“Sofia did a great job with our two dogs while we were gone for the week. She sent pictures every time she was there. She communicated very well and did everything we asked of her. Will definitely rebook and recommend Sofia.”
“Tanya was great to work with and was great with our two dogs. Our dogs are a bit tentative when meeting new people, so Tanya was great with letting them get acclimated with her before leashing them. She is very responsive and easy to work with!”
“Ameneh was so easy to work with! She provided great daily updates on our loves as well as an unexpected update on our home- a neighbors tree fell and blocked our driveway! Our little loves were well cared for and I will definitely look to book her again!”

I understand the responsibility that comes with being entrusted with a pet. From daily walks and feeding schedules to playing, companionship, and providing a safe environment, I treat every pet with the same attention and care as I would show my dog. I work as a nurse on a predictable schedule, which allows me to plan pet care around my days off. As a dog owner myself, caring for animals is already part of my daily routine. I have a golden doodle and understand the importance of regular walks, exercise, attention, and maintaining a pets routine. I prioritize safety, comfort, and routine for every pet.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 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.
