“Paola was an absolutely incredible sitter for our special needs cats. She was very attentive, communicated about our kitties regularly, and was easily reachable for any questions we had. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our cats, Paola!”
“Madeline did such a wonderful job taking care of our pups in our home for the weekend! She was super responsible and responsive and it was clear our babies had a wonderful time with her. We will definitely reach out to Madeline again for future dogsitting!”
“Katherine is the best dog sitter we have ever had. She connected with our dog Peanut immediately. We felt very comfortable leaving Peanut with her. Katherine consistently updated us with pictures and information about our precious dog on a daily basis. It helped make our vacation special, knowing that our dog Peanut was in great hands. I will definitely use her again. She deserves a 5 star rating.”
“Sierra took excellent care of our fur baby TRUE🐶🐾! We were updated on all his walks play time and play dates with his new fur friends boarding with him for four days! I felt confident with our meeting with Sierra that True was in a safe environment and welcoming!”
“Michael watched our dog at our home for a week. He was very responsible and kept us informed when our dog started having behavioral issues. Michael was so patient while our dog was getting used to having a new sitter and us being gone. He tried different ways to get him to eat his food and take his medications. We were so thankful to have someone we trusted while we were away.”
“My pups can be standoffish with strangers but Cedric walked in and won them over immediately. Cedric helped me out on short notice and on a holiday, and left my place clean and neat. I would definitely have him watch my dogs again.”
“Nikki was amazing and did a great job house sitting & watching our cat Max. We appreciated that she kept in contact with us & sent photos of our boy while we were out of the State. I loved hearing that he was being extra cuddly/snuggly and know he must have liked having her here. We would definitely have her watch him again.”
“Lauren just completed our first sitting and everything went great! She arrived on time and she sent us pictures and updates while we were gone. We are very pleased.”
“Kemmesha was amazing! From the beginning she was engaged with our 3 animals and sent us photos and videos while we were away. It made us feel much better about being gone for a week to know there was someone who cared watching our girls. Thank you!”
“Yolanda was amazing with our very energetic dog - she and her daughter kept him exercised, fed, cuddled and happy. The pictures and communication kept me feeling secure the whole time we were away. I couldn't be happier!”
About: i have lived with pets my whole life both cats and large dogs. currently we only have cats but I feel comfortable taking care of low maintenance dogs as well. i live in a house with multiple cat and have primary responsibility for some of them including litter box cleaning, grooming, feeding, watering, all basic needs. I have established routines for meeting these needs on a regular basis. I have also lived with dogs in the past and have basic care knowledge on them as well When boarding cats i will provide a separate quiet space to allow for both interaction and privacy. When caring for pets in your home I will try to mimic your routines as much as possible although that isn't always possible.
“Shes been amazing. She has a pup of her own and milo and her love playing. To give me a break shes taken him to the dog park and to her place so he has a change of environment. Deff recommend her.”
About: I’m the go to for taking care of my friend’s dogs when they go out of town. I’ve walked, fed, and provided active time when needed. I’m currently working from home and I am able to provide loving care as needed. I’m available on week days and weekends as needed to provide care. I have a friendly pet available to provide company and canine time. In addition, my home is large enough and I can crate as needed.
About: I've had pets starting from the age of 2, I am now 30. Ever since I can remember I have always had so much love to give to any animal I see. Whether it be a dog, cat, snake, or even donkey (yes, I've even cleaned donkey poop). Because I have always had pets in my home, I learned early on the ins and the outs on how to care for them. My first dog was a Japanese Akita, who I had until the age of 15 and was my best friend, which means I have never had any issues or even fear dealing with large dogs. By age 15 I was being asked by family/friends/& neighbors to walk/watch their pet. This particular job has always been something I take very seriously, animals are your family, and I always intend to treat them as such. I will make sure to show each and every pet I come across with as much love as I can, as well as patience and care. I will be sure to send you lots of photos of your fur baby while under my care. Whether it's for a short walk or a long week together! I am currently unemployed, so I have plenty of time to play with your fur baby. I am available any day to walk & feed your pet/s. I am also available to house sit while you are away, I typically would like at least a week notice. However, I am very flexible. Before starting any job, whether it is just to walk or feed your pet, I require meeting them first. It's important as a pet owner to feel comfortable with the person you are leaving with your fur baby, but most importantly we want your pet to feel safe/comfortable! I have done this with every new animal I have cared for and it always makes it to be a smooth and easy visit!
About: I love dogs, cats, animals in general! I teach children all day so my patience is amazing! If your dog wants to smell every blade of grass then I’ll wait as long as they need. I have two very different dogs at home a one year old and a 10 year old so I have high levels of experience with all ages. I also have been a pet sitter for neighbors for years they love their walks! Saturdays and Sundays I’m available all day anytime ! I’m currently a teacher so Monday through Fridays are a bit tougher. Anytime after 6pm I’m there ! I understand at first most dogs won’t trust me(stranger danger) so we will start getting to know each other slowly. I do bond very quickly with everyone so by the third time we should be best friends !
“Shanae is easily one of the best sitters we have used in a while - we used to have a go-to sitter that moved away for grad school and went through a few additional sitters without much luck on a good fit, but we're incredibly happy to have found Shanae. She took care of our dog as her own, took her on even longer walks than we regularly do, sent pictures, and our dog seemed so happy and relaxed when we got home, when in the past she has seemed more relieved than happy. We're sure Abby looks forward to seeing her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since college. I always help friends, relatives and neighbours to take care of their pets, did a great job, and trustworthy I’m currently working part time, so have plenty time to take care of your pet. I’m available at every weekend, and after 2 pm every weekday. I live in a townhouse and private entrance, also have a fenced back yard and two friendly cats at home, enough toys to play with your pets
About: Animals are such a passion of mine and I care for them as if they were my own. I truly put my all into taking care of them and making sure they have a blast. I work part time in the food industry right now so I decided to let this be a side hustle to help me with school. With the service I provide, even though the time spent with the pets isn’t long I make sure to follow your set instructions along with giving as much love to your pet as I can.

Mason L.
“Mason has lived with animals his entire life. Mostly cats and dogs, but also fish, hamsters, and chickens. He is gentle, kind and compassionate, often sensing intuitively what animals need. Cats seem to be especially drawn to him and he has humorously been called a "cat whisperer". He has cared for family friends' menageries while they are away, helped trap and rescue several local feral cats and kittens, and assisted with treatment of injured and ill pets. He will love your pets and care for them as if they were his own.”

Kirk M.
“What I about Kirk's management of his pets is that he doesn't force comfortablility on those who aren't pet lovers. He asks before allowing his dog to socialize with unfamiliar people. And when out with pet pays attention to what his dog is doing.”
Tatiana T.
“I can’t say enough great things about Tati! She has watched our 3 large dogs and cat in our home several times now, and each time has been a truly wonderful experience. From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves animals and our pets absolutely adore her in return. She is not only responsible and reliable, but also incredibly kind, patient, and attentive to their needs. Whether it’s going on long walks with our dogs or making sure our cat gets plenty of love and playtime, she always goes above and beyond. We’ve come home to happy, relaxed pets and updates that show just how well they were cared for. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, compassionate dog walker or sitter, I wholeheartedly recommend Tati. Your pets will be in the best hands!”
Vanessa C.
“Vanessa has two of her own beautiful dogs and they are her world. I work with her, we both work with kids, and you will not meet a more nurturing and caring person in the world. This woman is the one you want to take care of your dogs!”

Oluwaseyi O.
“Oluwaseyi has watched my dog since he was a puppy to now (3 years). She’s always accommodated to his needs, from him being sick and needing antibiotics to his very strict eating schedule. She’s always been professional and isn’t afraid to reach out with any questions.”
Maryland City pet parents share their Rover experiences
We were happy to have Vanessa stay with our pups while we were traveling. She's great at communicating and sent an update every day. Our dogs reported only good things when we got home :) it was great to not have to worry about our pups and just enjoy our time away. We would recommend Vanessa as a sitter and would gladly have her take care of our dogs any time!
Lyndsey is a pet’s owner’s dream. My yorkie fell in love with her pretty much at first sight. She is dependable, professional, and knowledgeable, and clearly loves caring for animals. She’s really good with my senior dog. I have engaged Lyndsey several times for 1 day to 16 day periods, and recommend her 100 percent.
Mackenna was great with our cats and dogs! I felt super comfortable leaving them with her, and I came back to happy pets! :) she also took care of my plants on the deck, so extra big thank you for that! Mackenna also had great communication and was very responsive. I’d recommend her to family and friends! :)
