About: I've been taking care of animals ranging from large dogs, kittens and cats, hamsters, and even goats my entire life, whether its feeding, walking, or even just hanging out with. I'm happy to work with young animals all the way up to seniors and provide any unique care they may need! I am the biggest animal lover and can make sure your pet will feel loved and cared for. I am currently home on summer break and have lots of availability. I occasionally will be away for a long weekend at the beach, but I am available otherwise for quick check ins, overnight stays, or whatever is needed. I have plenty of cat toys, bowls, beds, and space for your pets to make themself comfortable in. I would typically prefer to come to your home for dogs but will be able to accommodate if that is not possible for you!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs for most of my life, and have done some dogsitting and dog walking before. I’ll admit it’s been a bit since I had to focus on school work for my psych degree, but now that I have to wait till fall for grad school, I figured now is the time to help out some furry friends! I’m an animal lover at heart and am not only interested in, but willing to help with any accommodations! Our pets deserve the best after all! :) I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I have plenty of time for any pet care. I tend to be more of a night owl so I can help cats when they’re more active at night. I tend to work best with detailed instructions. I don’t want to disturb any routine and want the animal to feel as comfortable as possible.
“Emily arrived on time and was so friendly and warm greeting Sadie. She definitely provided Sadie a great walk and rewarding experience. I would definitely use Emily again?”

About: When I am home from school, I live with 2 dogs and 4 cats. My mother frequently fosters dogs from all different walks of life, so I am used to adapting to many unique circumstances! Wether your dog is out going or never leaves their crate, I’m your girl for every kind of care! I am a home body, so with the exception of the classes I have (only Tuesday through Thursday) I am always around! Having animals gives me a sense of motivation, I love knowing I’m starting and ending my day by caring for a pet. I miss my puppies while I’m away at school and can’t wait to give yours all the love I have built up! I love having a buddy to hang out with while I am doing homework, making dinner, or relaxing watching TV. I love a good schedule and will make sure your dog feels as good as possible following the same routine with me!
About: I have taken care of all different types of dogs for varying amounts of time and looking forward to taking care of many more ! As a college student, I’m hoping to take care of your furry friend over breaks and weekends here and there when I am free ! I love a schedule and organization so if you give me instructions, I am all over that! I will try my hardest to stick to your dog’s routine!
“Alicia did a phenomenal job! She was very communicative, punctual, professional, and took some great photos of our dog on his walk. We will definitely be requesting her services in the future. We were happy that Jett did all his tricks and commands for her 😀”


“Bryan was great with my dogs during their walks. He was reliable, on time, and easy to communicate with. My dogs came back happy and well exercised, and it was clear they were comfortable with him. This guy doesn’t miss. I’d definitely use Bryan again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”

About: I bring a combination of reliability, experience, and genuine love for animals that sets me apart from other sitters. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets with special needs. I am trained in providing medication administration, gentle handling for anxious pets, and creating structured routines to keep pets happy and healthy. My attention to detail ensures that every pet receives individualized care, and I communicate regularly with owners to give updates and peace of mind. Whether it’s playtime, training support, or senior pet care, I tailor my approach to meet each animal’s unique needs. I work full-time during the weekdays, but I am available evenings and on weekends to provide care for your pets. During these times, I dedicate focused attention to feeding, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I can follow your pet’s specific routines and make sure they receive the care and interaction they need while maintaining a structured schedule that keeps them happy and comfortable. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed and happy. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications if needed, engage in playtime and exercise, and offer plenty of affection and attention. When caring for pets in the client’s home, I treat the space and pets with respect, following all owner instructions carefully. I maintain routines as directed, ensure pets have fresh water and food, and provide companionship and exercise. I also keep the owner updated with regular messages or photos, so they feel confident their pets are safe and well-cared for while they’re away.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple different animals including dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and bunnies. I have experience with young kittens, even syringe or bottle feeding. I’m a fast learner and love all animals and I would be happy to take care of your beloved pets! Home from college for the summer with all the time on the world to take care of your animals! Any day or time works for me! I will play, pet, and cuddle your pets all day long! I love going on walks and enjoying the fresh air with your furry friends!
“Sadie is very kind and paid close attention to all information I gave her, including training I'm currently working on with my pup, and continued to follow that training on their walks. Sadie sent lots of pictures and I could tell that my pup obviously had a great time. I would gladly have Sadie take care of my pup in the future and would recommend her to others.”

About: I've owned and taken care of dogs my entire life and know from experience they are truly family. My goal is to always treat them that way. Whether your pup is social or shy, energetic or a couch potato, I'm ready :) I'm up for talking them for walks, playing in the yard, getting some energy out, or just hanging if that's their speed. I am currently off for the summer so my availability is very flexible. I will have my son with me at times, but he is very used to dogs. My pup is my furbaby, as is yours. Whatever your house rules are for the yard, furniture, or anything else, I'll follow that. I'm comfortable with leads, crates, or regular leashes.
About: My family raised litters of puppies growing up. Coming home from school at ages as young as 6 years old, I would walk into a home with as many as a 12 labrador puppies (+ our 2-3 full grown labs) at a time. I helped my mother with cleaning them, cleaning their messes, and watching them carefully when we took them outside to begin potty training. Once I was older, I began professionally dog walking and pet sitting. In high school, I had 3 families whose pets I consistently cared for, sometimes for weeks at a time while they were on vacation, in addition to simultaneously caring for my 3 dogs and 1 cat at home. Caring for pets has been an integral part of my life for (literally) as long as I can remember. I typically work 4-8.5 hour shifts at my job in Timonium, MD. I work only part-time, so I do not work every day, but it is important to note that if your fur babies need potty breaks every 4 hours or less, I might not be the most compatible sitter for you. I usually receive my work schedule two weeks in advance on Fridays or Saturdays. I always want to cater to the pet’s routine and make the transition of care as seamless as possible. I pay great attention to how long their usual walk is, how often they need to spend time outside, how much food they are to be given and at what times of day. The comfort of the pet (and thereby the owner) is my absolute top priority.
About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, donkeys, goats, chickens, ferrets, hamsters, etc. I’m used to being in households with multiple animals. I have a Boston Terrier that I consistently walk. I don’t currently have a job I’m full time pet sitting. However I do take jobs outside of rover and have occasional plans or trips but I’m very flexible. I have a Boston Terrier who I let out on a leash and take on walks around the neighborhood. He typically sleeps in his crate.

About: I have had dogs all of my life. From a German Shephard, to Labs, Goldens, Huskies, Shih Tzu, I have had them all. I have experience giving my Red Fox Lab, Big Boy Butters insulin shots, since he is diabetic. My Goldens, Maggie and Ollie, love playing tennis ball and going for walks. Daisy, my Shih Tzu, thinks that she is a Doberman even though she is only 15 pounds. They all love to wrestle. I have a fenced in yard where they can run freely. They enjoy their treats and all of the rubs they can handle. I also have experience with salt water/fresh water fish and reptiles. Just love animals. They are always happy to see you and they enjoy being loved. I am working full time but have an open ended schedule and am willing to make anything work. I can either come to you or willing to have your pets stay with me. I have 3 teenagers that also love dogs that are willing to help out. Your pets will not be ignored and will get plenty of attention. I have a fenced in yard. I have two goldens, a lab, and a shih tzu currently if your pets would be coming here. I can also stay at your house to take care of your pets. Can make anything work. I have had dogs/cats/fish and reptiles for over 50 years so I have plenty of experience. Butters, my Red Fox Lab, is diabetic so I also have experience with medication and insulin shots.
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life — I grew up in a home full of pets and was responsible for their daily care from a young age. As an adult, I’ve always had animals (dogs and cats) of my own and have experience with pets at every life stage. Most recently, I lovingly cared for my senior dog who passed away at 17, so I’m very familiar with the patience and attention that older dogs often need. I’m active and love going for walks, but I’m just as happy to relax and keep a pet company. I’m responsible, punctual, and committed to following your pet’s routine closely. I currently have one dog of my own and am fostering another. I I currently work part-time, Tues-Thursday. I'm available for walks or check-ins Friday-Monday. During my breaks (I work at a school), like holidays and the summer, I am available any day! I can also do evenings Tues-Thursday. I offer care in my clients homes - both check-ins and walks. My own house is a bit chaotic with kids and animals, so I'm not offering care in my own home. I will be diligent in following all instructions when taking care of your pets and will also be respectful of your home!
About: I am a school teacher and a life-long animal lover and have had pets since I was a young child. I currently have 3 dogs (and a horse). Two of my dogs have their intermediate trick titles and also compete and do well in agility. The third is an older deaf rescue. I am experienced with handling and also training dogs. During the summer, I have worked with a local company for 8 years for dog walking as well as dog/cat sitting for vacation clients. Through word of mouth I've had training clients and hope to add that service through Rover. I also I am fairly new to Rover since my availability depends on when school is in session. I am a teacher so I am available all summer for walks or pet-sitting. I also do days I am off work and some holidays. I am not available during the weekdays when school is in session. I treat clients' dogs like my own. I do prefer a meet and greet before caring for your pet. I will only care for pets in the client's home since I already have 3 dogs of my own. I am quiet and calm with animals to put them at ease. I can take them for a walk, or will play ball or whatever your dog enjoys playing. I can feed your pet, give treats, meds, and always provide fresh water. I am responsible and always show up, stay the full amount of time, and make sure the house is just as I left it. Dogs are always happy to see me. Your dog will get lots of love during my visits.
“This was Connor's first visit with our girls Kiwi and Rio. He was on time, followed protocols and communicated promptly. Very happy about all 3 of those things! We have scheduled another visit soon.”
About: Being a part of the pet community myself, I understand what kind of care you want your fluffy friend to have. I have experience caring for small, medium and large dogs, having an English Shepherd myself, along with being able to care over cats! Family, friends, and neighbors have asked me to care for their furry friends by either staying with them when they went on vacations, or even just stopping by for a quick trip around the block! Whatever your pet needs I am pretty willingly to do. My summers are free which allow me to put all my energy into caring for your animal. Having my own animal at home, I understand the need to frequently check in even when I have errands to run. I would treat your pet like he/she was my own! My dog at home was crate trained, but we now have allowed him to wonder the house a little more. That being said, I can easily get a dog into a crate or whatever suits the animals needs. I also have a friendly indoor/outdoor cat who comes and go as he pleases. Along with him we have a strictly indoor cat, so I am very good at paying attention of the flow of traffic within the house.
