“Maureen was great with my dogs. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals and I felt completely at ease about leaving my fur babies in her care. She accommodated my last minute booking request and even made time to come do a meet and greet on short notice. She was very conscientious, did everything I requested and was great at communicating. I would definitely book Maureen again and recommend her to my friends. A+ experience.”
“Deborah, thank you again with your caring for our cats. The three of them become attached to you very quickly. Great pictures too. We appreciate being able to take a trip and not have to worry about our "family" at home.”
About: Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable dog lover who understands that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. I love getting outside, staying active, and making sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, and affection while their humans are away. Whether your dog needs a leisurely stroll, an energetic walk, or simply some extra companionship, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and any special instructions you provide. I have foster dogs for the last two years. I am currently fostering my 7th dog, I have owned dogs my whole life and my dream is to open my own sanctuary one day. I’ve fostered small dogs And big dogs, i’ve potty trained, crate trained, and house trained every single one of my Foster’s. I have experience with fear based, anxious and reactive dogs. I spend my free time volunteering at the shelter to help walking & socializing the dogs. My dogs are my children, and they are so spoiled beyond belief. I’m currently working part time so I’m pretty much home all day dedicating my time to my fur babies, making sure they get plenty of mental and physical exercise. I’m big on mental enrichment/stimulation and excersise. I will make sure your dog is taking good care of! I love to play ball/fetch with my dogs, I play a lot of puzzle games, I take them for a run or car ride to sniff & tire themselves out.
“Megan did a fantastic job. She arrived right on time, was consistent with her walks and time spent with the dogs. I always got a detailed report card and cute pic of the dogs. She was fantastic.”
“Cheryl was the sweetest with our dogs! Cared a lot about what worked for them and was extremely friendly. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for care for their dogs!”
“Thank you, Stephanie! We were so happy with our first time and she could not have made it easier. What wonderful communication! Callie was so content when we returned . We know she appreciated her visit.. No doubt we will ask her again to care for our cat! 5 stars!! Highly recommend!”
“Paige is such a consummate professional. She spends the time with my dogs during each visit: playing, talking, reinforcing training for the puppy and brushing. During my work day I know my dogs are in such wonderful care with Paige.”
“Tyler was wonderful with my dogs. He made me feel very comfortable by sending me great shots of the pups and by being super communicative. My dogs were very happy when I got home. Thank you Tyler!!”
“Lauren visited my cats over a weekend away. She followed instructions I left, took it upon herself to change the water bowl I left for the outside critters during a heat wave, and won over my scaredy cat. I am very pleased and will book her again.”

We are new to Rover but on another app we have 19 5 star reviews! We are lovers of all animals and have owned cats, dogs, fish, turtles, hedgehogs, mice, hamsters, bunnies, and lizards ! Haley and I work short shifts and opposite schedules, so we are usually available any time of day ! Our jobs are also seasonal so we only work part time in the winter months In a clients home i would make sure the pets are well taken care of, along with getting plenty of exercise and attention! Every dogs needs vary, but we are very accommodating.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 11 years old. I have 2 Dogs of my own that are 10 years apart so I have lots of experience with puppies and grand-dogs! I also occasionally have dog sat for friends and family :) I am mostly remote for my job, only going into office 4 times a month or less, so I have lots of time to spend catering to pets. I live in a great neighborhood with a dog park, walkable roads, grass, etc. so easy access to walks/playtime. I have a quiet, clean space for dogs to enjoy with large windows for those who like sun bathing! I will always run the AC so they stay cool, have space for them to change up their scenery, and have a dog park and walkable neighborhoods in my backyard.
About: Growing up as a child, I have always been around and loved animals. My experience in pet care is from having different pets of my own and volunteering! Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I am a stay at home mom so I will have plenty of time to play and cuddle with your pup! I am available daily for sittings and walks. I will follow pet owners instructions, communicate very often, and send lots of pictures. Your home and pets will be treated just like my own!
About: I enjoy dogs and I enjoy walks so what better way to combine the two than becoming a Rover walker! I have most experience with small and medium dogs. I work flexible hours in my full time job currently, I am sure we can work something out that works for both of our schedules! Dogs bring so much joy to our lives! I love to walk and explore the neighborhood with a furry companion, throw a ball, and cuddle up with sweet dogs.
About: I have three labs at home that I have been taking care of for years, who all have very different personalities so I am familiar with different kinds of behaviors! I’m a big pet lover and will treat your dog like my own! I am a student USC and will be available outside of my class schedule. I am flexible and can definitely work around your schedule as well! I take my dogs on walks daily, and I also have a fenced yard that I watch my dogs play in. I’m very very versatile!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ocean City
Sterlin was fabulous! It was our first time using Rover and she put our mind at ease, answering all of my questions leading up the visit -- and on the visit day, she arrived promptly, fed our fur babies and took them out. The pictures she took were so appreciated! Wouldn't hesitate to use her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Ocean City on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 468 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ocean City. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ocean City stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ocean City. On Rover:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
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.
