“Karenna did an amazing job caring for our dog! She was super communicative, sending photos and asking about a few behavioral things to make sure everything was on track. She also checked in on a house issue (some ants had made their way inside) and was prepared to deal with it. I would highly recommend Karenna, and hope we get a chance to book her again sometime soon!”
“Zana watched our two dogs and cat for a week and we are thrilled with our experience. Zana was extremely communicative and sent great pictures along with the updates. Our elder dog got sick and Zana was a champ handling some unexpected cleanup duty, leaving our house nice and clean. We sincerely hope we can rebook Zana the next time we leave town.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ James was absolutely amazing with Meiko! From the beginning, he was incredibly attentive and communicative, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. He kept me updated, was very responsive, and most importantly, Meiko absolutely loved him! He was also extremely respectful of my home and just genuinely so friendly and easy to work with. I really appreciated the care and attention he gave Meiko while I was away. It’s such a relief finding someone you can trust with both your pet and your home. I will absolutely be booking with James again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring sitter. Thank you so much, James! 🐾💕”
“Emma was amazing with our very anxious and reactive pup. She replied immediately to a last minute house sitting request, came right over to get the lowdown, was great at keeping Bruno calm, and took great care of him! He developed a little eye irritation while she was with him. She did an excellent job letting us know about it while also conveying that she wasn’t particularly concerned.”
“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.”
“Ana is a fantastic sitter! Trustworthy, great communication, and she is great with our dogs. She also sent us photos of our dogs throughout the stay which was very appreciated”
“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: I've had cats since I was a child and love dogs. I've never owned a dog, but I love to spend time with them and give them the attention they need. I am experienced in giving cats liquid medication and pills. I can schedule walks, and check-ins usually anytime in the morning and then after 4 pm in the afternoon on weekdays and usually whenever on weekends. I love walking and with a dog, it's even better. I also love to meet new kitties and can handle medication administration if needed as well. Having cats most of my life has provided me with much joy and respect for animals. I provide my three cats with a litter robot, dry and wet food at meal times, two water fountains, and meds for one cat every day. I respect different pet's needs and comfort levels as well as the owners' wishes.
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals! I’ve grown up with lots of cats, dogs & more! I currently work at my local animal shelter as a Behavior trainer, and I treat all of the fur babies as if they were my own until they get their furever home. I care about each of them and only wanna make them feel love special and cared for! Since I'm working part-time right now, I have plenty of open time to dedicate to your fur baby. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. My days are flexible, so I can give your pup my full attention - whether that's a nice long walk, playing fetch at the park, doing food puzzles for mental enrichment, or just hanging out for lots of love and pets while they enjoy a bone. I'm happy to stick to whatever routine makes them most comfortable. As the owner of a 1.5-year-old rescued Doberman mix, I understand how much care, exercise, and enrichment dogs need to thrive. My boy gets daily physical exercise plus mental stimulation through enrichment, puzzle toys, and Kongs. I bring that same standard of care to every pet I watch - just let me know your pet's routine and needs, and I will follow it to the T. As for Safety is always my #1 priority - whether we’re out and about in town or on a quiet hike in the woods.
“Lisa took great care of our dogs. This was our first time leaving them since one developed medical needs and it was a great experience. She communicated well and took good care of both the house and the dogs in our absence. We'll definitely be booking her again.”
“Quinn was great watching our dogs and cats while we were away. She was very communicative and friendly. We felt very confident that our fur babies were being well taken care of. Having never used an in house sitter, we didn’t know what to expect and she made it very easy. Came back to a clean home, happy pets and we got pictures the entire time we were away! Highly recommend!”
“Chelsea was fantastic. We had to leave for a long trip for almost 3 weeks to the far east. I couldn’t not imagine boarding our dog for this long of a time. Chelsea not only house sat for us but took great care of our aging husky lab mix dog for the whole time. She made us feel at ease with daily pictures and checking in and we knew that our dog Bodie was well cared for. Finding someone to trust with our house and our dog for this long of a time was very stressful prior to leaving. Chelsea made it very easy on us. She is professional and truly cares. I couldn’t not be thankful enough that we found Chelsea on Rover. I would definitely use her again.”
“Alexander took great care of our dog and home while we were away! We got plenty of updates and came home to a clean house which was greatly appreciated. We highly recommend him and will definitely be booking again in the future.”
“She was very kind and flexible when our trip plans changed! She was also a considerate house guest! Thanks for taking great care of our dog and our home, Katarzyna!”
“Peter looked after my 2 dogs for 9 days. It was great couldn’t ask for more. I usually judge by how calm my dogs are when I come back. And with Peter they are very calm and seem happy. The house was left as it was before too. No issue at all! Thanks so much!”
“Yasim was great! Kept us updated with plenty of pics and made sure to take our dogs on plenty of walks. Had a great peace of mind having him stay at our house to watch our girls. Would recommend to anyone!”
About: I'm reliable dependable and dogs always seem to like me. I'm very flexable with my schedule, and have no trouble housesitting as well as dogsitting I have a full time job. Right now I'm teleworking, while our office is being revamped, but will soon return to the office. Once that happens I'll probably be gone from 7:30AM - 6:00PM on weekdays. I usually walk your Dog around 6 AM when I first get up, make sure he has water food and a chew toy when I head out to work, and walk him/her as soon as I get home, and once more before bed. I live alone so I can focus on your pet I live in a 1 bedroom apartment in a clean safe neighborhood. It's a very dog friendly community, and there's a fenced in play area where your Dog can run and play fetch. I also live fairly close to a walking trail. As far as housesitting, I'm willing to go anywhere in the Baltimore metro area. I'm very respectful of other people's property, and as I mentioned I live alone so it's not an issue to spend a week or longer at your house
“We were so thankful to Jupiter for watching our dog. She was wonderful- communicative, caring, and very respectful of our home! We returned to a happy dog and would definitely use her to sit again.”

Elizabeth is fantastic. I’ve used her overnight services multiple times, and I’m thrilled every single time. She is always my first choice in a pet sitter. Great communication, follows any rules 100%, is mindful of being in your home and leaving it actually better than I left it, and makes wise decisions. My dog Pippa loves her!!
Bear and Sparky were very well cared for by Corrie! They were happy and healthy upon our return. Sparky was looking around for Corrie.🐶. Our house was in good order upon return, even folded laundry on the bed. Glad we had some doggie photos and connection with Corrie while traveling. It helped a lot to know they were doing just fine!
This was the first time we used, Paul, and he did a great job! He was professional, timely, fastidious, and very communicative throughout our five day trip. She clearly loves dogs, and was very in tune with the needs of our elderly dog. Will definitely be using him again!
Karenna went above and beyond expectations- she agreed to meet and get to know my reactive dog who needs the time to get to know someone before being left alone. We schedule multiple drop ins prior to her house sitting and the weekend went very smoothly. Took great care of both our dogs and our home. Highly recommended!
We could not have asked for a better sitter than Sejal. She took care of my Boston Terrier after a last minute request, and sent regular pictures and updates. She went above and beyond when Mavis had a health emergency. Sejal took her to the Pet ER and stayed with her for 7 hours, keeping me updated the whole time. Her communication is top notch, and the love and care she had for Mavis was apparent. I cannot recommend Sejal enough for anyone needing a dog sitter.
Victoria became fast friends with our dog, Oscar! Her care was exceptional, even brushing his teeth and administering medications. She communicated with us daily with photos and updates. She even washed and changed towels and linens, and watered our numerous plants. She’s a winner!
We had Cat stay with our fur babies again for a whole week & she was absolutely amazing as always!! we came back to our pets happy & healthy & our house clean. We also never wondered how our pets were doing because she always gave updates with lots of cute pics!! We love Cat 💖💖
Emma was amazing with our very anxious and reactive pup. She replied immediately to a last minute house sitting request, came right over to get the lowdown, was great at keeping Bruno calm, and took great care of him! He developed a little eye irritation while she was with him. She did an excellent job letting us know about it while also conveying that she wasn’t particularly concerned.
Sabrina stayed with my 3 dogs and cat for a week. She took wonderful care of them and the house. She was very responsive, cleaned up everything she used, and even painted adorable pictures of all the animals for us during her stay. Definitely would hire again as she took great care of our needy crew and recommend to anyone else!
As always, Leslie was the consummate professional and took such great care of our dogs, Cada and Lucy while we were away on our honeymoon! She kept us up to date with photos and news. When Cada had a mild/moderate health issue, she handled it extremely well, notifying us and taking Cada to the vet as appropriate and dispensing her medications as directed. She also got Cada a cone and made sure she was happy and distracted while wearing it. While you never want something negative to happen to your pets while you're away, we're so glad that Leslie is the one who was there to handle the issue and take care of our dogs. She also watered our plants and took good care of our house. Huge thanks, Leslie!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Mays Chapel is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $33 and $83 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Mays Chapel 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 Mays Chapel 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 Mays Chapel 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.
