About: I have several pets of my own and have several references if needed for people who I have sat for. I am a retired nurse, and I’m able to administer shots if necessary to animals such as diabetics. I currently have my own business called Joanne second home. I have done this for years and babysitting. Cats works well within my schedule. I enjoy taking care of cats and have four years. I prefer to babysit your cat in your home as they feel more comfortable in their own surroundings. I tend to try to play with them. I clean the litter box every time I go in I have also made sure that their water bowls are clean every day.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for long weekends, short days, quick drop ins for years now! I am welcoming and willing to take care of multiple dogs at once! As im a college student i am available for walks/sitting on weekends and certain weekdays after classes which would typically be after 3/3:30 but my times are flexible given the day! I am now a junior in college with my own reliable transportation. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate a wide variety of hours during the week and on weekends. I’m responsible, dependable, and excited to give your pets the love, care, and attention they deserve.
About: I've had and taken care of a dog since I was 7 years old. Dogs were always a part of our family life. In my family and friend group I am the go-to person for pet sitting and puppy walks. I recently participated with a trainer from Ultimate K9 training in Southern Maryland with my own pup Russel who passed with flying colors and both he and I learned many new skills and tricks. Working with dogs is one of the loves of my life. I typically work a 7-5 shift at my day job but do have some flexibility during the day that I can use for a pup break. Evenings I am consistently available after 5pm. Weekend work is not a problem and I am open to helping support your much needed getaway. Love is always the first ingredient but of course we respect puppy boundaries as set by the puppy parents or how comfortable the pup is until they feel comfortable. Meals are fed to pups at the same time to make sure they are not feeling favoritism. Belly rubs and play time are also important for bonding and trust. I will send images of pets daily if the pet parent would like. Just let me know.
About: Hi, I’m Kensington! I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—everything from cuddly pups and finicky cats to aquatics and scaly creatures (yes, really). I treat every pet like family, with patience, love, and attention to the little things that make them unique. Whether your dog needs a walk, your cat needs a lap to claim, or your shy pet just needs a calm presence, I’ve got them covered. My whole workweek typically revolves around pet care and ensuring other people’s furry friends are well taken care of. As for when I’m not working, I take care of all the sweet furry (and scale-y!) babies in my own home! I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs—whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, giving space to shy pets, or providing plenty of play and snuggles. I keep your home clean and respect your space, just like I do with the animals I care for. I’m experienced, adaptable, and always ready to make your pet feel loved and secure while you’re away.
About: hi, I’m molly! I currently live with my 5 year old cat Zeke and 1 year old dog Remi! I have been around animals all my life and would love to meet yours! I work a 9-5 from home! I would love some more furbaby company during the day and this is the perfect fit for me. During my work hours it is super flexible and I have time to play and take on walks. I have a cat who does well with dogs and other cats. I have a huge area on my street to take on walks and there’s plenty of space to run around inside!
About: Easily your dogs favorite sitter ~ I will treat your dog as if s/he were my own! I do have a black lab named Zuko that is great with most other dogs too. I do not crate my dog but you can absolutely bring yours if need be! I do work full time monday through friday but am able to come home on lunch breaks to let the dogs have a potty break mid day.I also have plenty of room for the dogs to run and play in our fenced in back yard. Thanks for reading and getting to know me, I look forward to meeting you and your pets! As I mentioned I do work Monday through Friday/ 8-5/ so I’m always excited to come home in the evening to those sweet fur babies. Walks in the evening are routine and weekends are enjoyed in the sunshine! I have a fenced in yard for them to run and play with Zuko. Bringing a crate if you have one is always a wise idea in case i have to step out for a moment. I don’t like putting the dogs in a situation I can’t be observant of.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
