House Sitting Lower Northwood

“Maria is a great sitter! She’s so attentive to our high energy dog and he loves to play and hang out with her. We will continue to utilize her services!”

Reyna L.

“The dogs loved her. Easy communication, sent updates throughout the weekend. The house was jjust as clean as it was when I left. Highly recommended.”

Robbe S.

“Asia took care of our dog Luna over a long weekend trip. Lu is ~10 years old and has various quirks that go along with that, Asia was patient and caring with her. She administered her medication, followed our instructions, and sent us several updates. Asia was also very responsive and respectful of our home. I would recommend Asia as a pet sitter for anyone.”

Courtney M.

“SJ was a dream dog and house sitter! Very communicative, thoughtful and most importantly, an instant friend to my dog! I would book with them again in a heartbeat. Thanks, SJ!”

Dinah D.

“Kathleen took great care of our senior cat and our home. She navigated some technical challenges with our alarm system with professionalism and good humor. Highly recommend. Will definitely re-book.”

Karen M.

“Great care for our little rescue guy. My dog instantly took to her. Eileen house sat and dog sat and was beyond responsible for both. We would 100 % call her when needed. She went out of hr way and I knew my guy was safe and happy.”

Jack B.

“I had a great experience with Sun! I really appreciated that they asked to do a meet and greet beforehand, which made me feel comfortable and confident leaving my dog in their care. I booked extremely last minute, and he was very accommodating and worked with me to make everything happen. They kept me updated throughout the entire process and did a wonderful job taking care of my dog. I would definitely book with him again!”

Marais M.

“Cassie was wonderful to work with. She responding quickly to questions, was friendly and professional, and was a genuinely nice person to work with. She stayed with our pup for over a week, left our home clean, and our dog was well cared for. We will use Cassie's help again in the future when we travel.”

Thomas R.

“Zana was great! We booked her for overnight pet sitting for our 2 dogs. She made sure they were never alone for long, spent lots of time playing with our very energetic pup and sent lots of cute photos during her stay. Our pups loved her and when we got home they acted like we'd never been gone. We have already rebooked Zana for a future trip.”

Amy Q.

“Jasmine was able to housesit and take care of my dog and cat on relatively short notice and did a tremendous job! She asked all the relevant questions I hadn't necessarily thought about during the meet and greet and made sure I was fully aware of any of her other obligations during the stay and made sure my pets were completely taken care of. She sent lots of photos, videos, and updates which provided me solid peace of mind. She even brought up small things I hadn't thought about such as checking the mail and making sure the trash was taken out, and even took the time to feed some of the stray cats that like to come around to hang out and ask for food. I came home to two very happy and healthy animals and can't recommend Jasmine enough.”

Zane S.

“We couldn’t be happier with the care Ivan provided for our pups and cat! He was absolutely outstanding—thoughtful, reliable, and clearly loves animals. He kept us fully up to date throughout our time away, sending lots of pictures and regular updates that gave us total peace of mind. Our pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we returned. We will definitely use Ivan’s services again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional pet sitting.”

Larry H.

“Aleya was AMAZING! She took excellent care of my dog, sent a lot of pictures, she’s great at communicating everything and she’s a very happy person! Will definitely book her again!!”

About: Thanks for checking out my profile! I am a registered veterinary technician with over 15 years of experience. I offer dog sitting in my home in north Baltimore City, and I really love what I do! I enjoy having my doggie guests, and I enjoy being able to provide a service for pet owners. I take pride in providing personal, individual care for all the pets that I watch. I treat my petsitting dogs just like I'd want my own pets to be treated! I am a registered vet tech (although not working in a vet office right now) and have also been petsitting for almost 20 years. I take my responsibilities as a pet sitter seriously, as I know that I am being entrusted with the care of your beloved family member. Safety really is a number one priority with me, and I'm a stickler about fences being shut or keeping dogs on leashes outside. I actually go outside with any guest doggies, whether they're in the fenced yard or I'm walking them on a leash, rest assured they'll be supervised. I usually only watch one dog at a time unless they're a pair from one family (although there are times when there's a little overlap, say at the beginningor end of a stay, but ill let owners know if this is the case) My yard is fully fenced in. Good for a game of fetch, and a convenient potty break, but for some more excersize, Chinquapin Park is very close by. Pets are welcome on furniture, and there's a comfy dog bed on every level. And I know it is hard to leave your dog behind, so I send updates, texts, pictures so you know how everything is going! As far as my pets, I only have one personal pet left, my big fat scaredy cat named Meow. We had to put my beloved dog Buddy to sleep a few years ago, but I was blessed to have him for over 16 years. So now it's just me, the cat, and my husband, Jarett, who is also a huge animal lover and great with dogs. We have a 6 year old daughter, Josie, as well, although she is only here on weekends right now because she is going to school near my parents house, in the county, and she stays with them during the week. Josie isn't your typical loud, hyper 6 year old, however - she is pretty quiet, quite laid back, and always extremely respectful of my client's dogs. I started teaching her young how to act around animals :) I do ask that your dog be house-trained and free of fleas, and up to date on basic vaccinations. I want to make sure I maintain a safe and clean environment for your pet and any others that I watch :) I provide a laid back, very loving, and safe home-away-from-home while you're away. Thanks for looking, and I hope to hear from you! About this sitter: I am a 40 year old registered veterinary technician, although not currently working at a vet's office. I have a lot of experience in the veterinary field, mostly dogs and cats, but I've worked with exotics and horses as well. I've been a veterinary technician virtually my whole adult life and have a degree in this field. I've run dog training classes, and have experience grooming as well. I have been petsitting for nearly 20 years, and have a number of clients, both through work and through Rover, that I've had for years. I take pride in getting to know each dog so that I can provide personal, loving care to your pet. Why I love dog sitting I think pet-sitting is a win-win scenario! I love what I do, I love the dogs that come to stay with me. I'm happy to provide what I think is a valuable service - giving your dog a safe, loving, knowledgeable home as opposed to a loud and uncomfortable kennel. I've been doing this for years, and recently Rover.com has put me in touch with even more Baltimore dog owners that want loving and trustworthy care for their furry family members while away. About my yard Chain link fence, standard height (somewhere between 3 1/2 and 4 feet) Grass yard that I keep clean. Yard is secure and I'm always outside with the dogs, so everyone should be contained and safe, but if your dog is a jumper or a real houdini then someone with a six-foot fence is probably better. My experience administering medication Because of the work that I do, I have ample experience in medicating pets. I am certified in pet CPR, I can administer insulin as well as monitor diabetic animals. I'm experienced and very comfortable with injections, oral medications, sub-q fluids, eye and ear medications, and topical meds. I am currently working only part time and often from home, so I am available virtually all the time to provide not only love and companionship, but the best possible care for your pet. I have a warm and cozy, clean household to relax in, a fenced yard for playing and potty breaks, and live close to Chinquapin Park for walks and runs.

“Kija was communicative and set my mind at ease about leaving my three little dogs with her for a few days. I would definitely recommend Kija as a housesitter and dog walker!”

About: I have taken care of cats since I was 7. I also had my first dog at the age of 9. I’ve spent my whole life taking care of animals as if they’re my siblings. As of right now, I am a taking a gap year from full-time university, so my schedule is flexible. I play water games with the dogs and keep them company during their stay. I love to spend time with animals like best friends would. I enjoy cleaning food dishes and feeding the pets. I’m currently a university student studying for a Bachelor of Science in Architecture and planning. I also work part time in the summer, but I can always work around my schedule to accommodate your pets :) I have a fenced backyard as well as cameras that overlook the front, back, and garage. I ensure safety by locking doors and keeping a constant eye on them. I also like to be in the room with the pet my entire visit.

“Courtney was so accommodating, communicative, and enthusiastic when taking care of Phoebe! We had to add an extra night of dogsitting very last night minute, and she couldn't have been more helpful. We got great updates, happy pictures, and felt super relaxed knowing our pup was in good hands.”

Daniel D.

“Gervon in a tremendous Dogsitter. He was communicative, kind, and attentive. He accommodated the medical needs of our pets, too. He even cleaned the sheets before he left! We highly recommend Gervon.”

Spencer P.

“Imani was super informative about the process of dog sitting since it was my first time using Rover! She was easy to work with and my dog loved her. She went above and beyond taking my dog to the dog park when not required. I would definitely book her again.”

Savannah P.

“Ana was amazing! She spent so much time with our senior beagle, Kirby. Walking and exercising him regularly, hanging with him and house sitting at the same time. She was responsible, communicative, knowledgeable and so pleasant sending pictures and updates. We had complete confidence with her and would recommend her to others.”

About: I truly believe pets are part of the family—and when they’re in my care, that’s exactly how I treat them. ❤️ I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including walking, drop-in visits, and caring for them in both my home and their own homes. I love getting to know each dog and figuring out what makes them happy. Whether they want to play, go for a good walk, get lots of attention, or simply curl up beside me, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’m an active, engaged pet sitter and love playing, talking to, and spending time with my furry friends. Once they’re in my care, they become part of my family. I enjoy playing with cats too, and giving them attention, but I also understand that many cats are happiest doing their own thing. I’m perfectly comfortable letting a cat have their space while keeping a watchful eye and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, fed, and cared for. My home is smoke-free, clean, calm, and pet-friendly. I keep food safely stored in cupboards and maintain a clean and sanitized environment. I’m mindful about keeping floors and common areas clean and making sure pets have a safe, comfortable place to relax. I have lengthy experience with large aquarium set ups with fish, turtles, geckos and lizards. Most importantly, I’m dependable, attentive, and respectful of your pet’s individual routine and personality. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated while you’re away, and treat your home and belongings with the same care I would want someone to give mine. Whether your pet needs a long walk, a playmate, a quiet companion, medication reminders, a cozy place to stay, or simply someone to keep them company—I’m happy to help. Your pets aren’t just pets to me. They’re little members of the family, and they deserve to be treated that way. 🐾 P.S. Rover is my first experience charging for pet care and that’s why I don’t have many jobs posted or reviews. Previously I traded services or offered free. I have been a Trusted Housesitters member for over 6 years. Meet n Greets are required for first time services. Please allow the necessary time frames. My current availability is as such: Flexibility during the day/evening for regular and drop in-walks, drop-in visits, pet care, 7 days a week. Holidays: Same availability and services at a modified fee. I’m also happy to care for pets in my home for doggy daycare care or boarding when the timing is a good fit. I know pets do best with consistency, so I’ll work with you to understand their normal routine and make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. As my schedule changes, I will update my availability as quickly as I can. When you leave your pet in someone else’s care, trust matters. I take that responsibility seriously. Your pet’s safety and well-being will always come first. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, stick to their normal routines as much as possible, and pay attention to the little things that help them feel comfortable and secure. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is doing well while you’re away. I treat your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I’ll keep things clean and secure, make sure doors and gates are properly closed, and never take shortcuts when it comes to your pet’s safety. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to doing what I say I’ll do. If something unexpected comes up, I’ll communicate with you rather than making assumptions. Most importantly, I understand that your pet isn’t “just a pet.” They’re family. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, comfortable pet—and to feel confident that they were cared for with kindness, patience, and genuine attention while you were gone. Meet n Greets are required for first time services. Please allow the necessary time frames. 🐾
