“Josh and Andres were fantastic. Our dog is reactive to people and strangers, but they were very comfortable around her, which helped her warm up to them very quickly. Willow was in great hands.”
About: I was the primary caregiver of my late maltese, Papi, for 10 years after we rescued him. He had a lot of health issues and I am very comfortable with medication distribution and senior care. He also had anxiety so I am sensitive to that. Since his passing, I regularly care for my sister’s pitbull. I also helped raise my other sister’s two puppies and taught them how to socialise at the dog park! I love hiking with dogs, playing fetch, and cuddling up on the couch! I currently work Tuesdays through Thursdays. This means that for Friday through Mondays I am home all day! I have a great nature trail near my house where I like to walk and would be happy to bring your fur baby with me! I have no pets and live with my father who also loves dogs! We have a big fenced in backyard and I am comfortable with letting dogs sleep in bed with me. Happy to crate as well.
About: At little bit about me, I am a graduate student studying occupational therapy and finishing in December. I have dog walked and house sat animals for the past 15 years and absolutely love it!. I have been lucky enough to grow up with a dog until recently I rescued a puppy of my own:) She is very playful, high energy, and loving so I understand the importance of good walk and exercise! I feel that a happy and behaved dog is a well exercised dog which is why I would love the opportunity to play and tire your dog out! I have high standards for my dog so I hold the same standards of myself shen taking care of orher's dogs. I am very reliable, timely, and hard working so I will always give your dog my undivided attention whenever I am with him/her! I love animals and cannot imagine my life without them! When I am out I am always worrying about my dog being alone, so I want to give you the peace of mind not worry about the care I am providing. Look forward to meeting you and your sweet pup!
About: I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. What really sets me apart is my attention to detail and ability to adapt to each dog’s individual personality and needs. Whether your dog thrives on snuggles, structure, exercise, or quiet company, I make sure they feel safe and cared for like they’re my own. My schedule varies depending on the week but typically work my full time job Tuesday thru Sunday with time in the mornings and evenings for pet care needs. Mondays are my best days with no conflict in availability for pet care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When I’m in your home, I treat your space with the same care and respect I give your pet. I follow your routines closely—whether that includes feeding schedules, crate time, walks, medications, or enrichment activities—so your pet feels secure and stress-free while you’re away. Before any booking, I make sure I understand your pet’s needs, house rules, and any safety considerations like gates, leashes, doors, or feeding areas. I always check that doors are locked behind me, water bowls are full, and your pet is safely settled before I leave. I stay in communication during visits or house sitting with updates and photos, so you never have to wonder how things are going. If anything seems off—behavior, appetite, or environment—I’ll let you know right away. Whether I’m walking, dropping in, or house sitting, my goal is to create a safe, calm, and consistent environment for your pet while giving you peace of mind.
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats since I was 17. Family, neighbors, and friends have trusted me to walk, feed, clean up after, and comfort their pets while they’re away. Whether it’s a snuggly cat or an energetic pup, I always approach animals with patience and love. I currently work part-time, so I’m flexible and can make time for drop-in visits or overnight stays at your home. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays after 2PM. I’ll treat your home with care—and your pets like family. I do not offer boarding in my own home, but I provide thoughtful, reliable care in your space—where your pets feel most secure. I respect your home, follow your pet’s routine, and ensure they feel safe, soothed, and seen while you’re away.
“This was my first time using Rover and Rachel was great. Scheduled a drop in visit at our place and did a meet and greet a couple days before so Pebbles would know who she was when she dropped by. She answered any questions we had and Pebbles took to her quickly. Arrived on time and sent us pictures during the visit.”
About: 15 years of own pet care experience. I have cared for pets and volunteered on animal shelters before. I own a frenchie boy who is very calm , never barks and loves to eat. If needed on a case by case basis I can arrange to have your baby in my care alone :) Loved animals since little. I will love your pet like its my own. I’m a civil engineer with a frenchie pup working from home! Dog-walking or pet sitting will be a smooth addition to my daily routine that your pup and I will enjoy! Meet and greets needed for dog sitting. Will send you photos or text to let you know how your pet is doing! Please let me know of any fears your pup has. I typically let my dog sleep my couch or bed but will ask for permission first.
“We worked with Lauren this past weekend as she took care of our cat. Lauren was a pleasure to work with. Great communication and responsiveness. She sent photos and texted me before and after her visits with Mia (our cat). More importantly, when we arrived back home I could tell that Mia was happy which lets me know that she had enough attention over the weekend and wasn't lonely!!!”
“Britney is absolutely wonderful she walked my dog many times and he was always very happy to see her she talked to him and greeted him with a gentle smile he always looks forward sure coming over Britney also took wonderful care of my cats getting them to eat even though they they they didn't want to because they were upset I was gone I hardly recommend her she is prompt and reliable an extremely trustworthy”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I understand the importance of providing them with patience, attention, and consistent care. I currently have a German Shepherd and two cats of my own, so I’m experienced with both dogs and cats and the unique needs each pet has. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I am currently home full time and am available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while ensuring they are always supervised and secure. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away!
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was very young, and I always had a family dog growing up. For 10 years, I have consistently been trusted by neighbors, family, friends, and even friends of friends to care for their dogs in various capacities. I took daily care of my sister's dog, Charlie (sweetest girl), who is a golden doodle and was a puppy at the time for 6 months. This included three walks per day and feeding her breakfast and dinner, plenty of tug of war and backyard time, as well as treats for being the best girl, but not too many.. I frequently take care of my parent’s dog who is high-energy and high-maintenance (Australian shepherd/poodle mix) who goes on two long walks per day and gets a ton of frisbee time in the yard. I've even taken care of another Rover Pet Sitter's dogs for multiple days, and overnight, while she was out of town, which included three daily walks (each and separately) for her two angels, I mean dogs. They are both a bit reactive and anxious, so I have plenty of experience navigating any possible issues along those lines. I currently have a very flexible schedule and work from home Monday-Friday, so I have plenty of time during the week for afternoon walks in addition to morning visits or afternoon/evening. I have plenty of availability on both weekdays and weekends. I am more than happy to answer any scheduling-related questions you might have! I've always had a dog growing up and love them more than most people (haha). I frequently take care of dogs of various ages for friends and family when they go out of town or are extremely busy, including my sister's puppy daily for months after she first brought her home (she was finishing medical school). I've also taken care of a very active Rover Sitter's two dogs that are reactive and walk separately, so I have plenty of experience tackling this kind of situation. They both got three (3) daily walks, breakfast, dinner, and a ton of play time for a few days while their owner was out of town. . I enjoy getting to know dogs and their personalities, so it barely felt like work. I have also worked as an Instacart Driver and in the Real Estate world, so I am more than capable of handling different ways of accessing apartments/condominiums via codes, lockboxes, etc, if that is of any concern. Happy to answer any further questions if necessary!! I thoroughly enjoy being outdoors and hanging out and playing with dogs, as I've been waiting, impatiently, to get one of my own (I want to ensure I have the right environment for a puppy before I finally bring one home). So, I'm happy to play with them in your yard, go on walks, or a combination of the two, as well as any specific meal-time or play-time requests.
“Shasta is the best pet sitter ever. With all the updates and cute photos she sent, I felt like I was in the room with her and my cat having fun. She's so communicative, respectful, and wonderful with my cat. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
“When we returned for vacation, I noticed that my dog was well-trained. It seems that I not only hired a pet sitter but also a pat trainer. My neighbor informed me of her exceptional skills with my dog. Now they like to have her as pat sitter as well. She was very responsive and on time every time”
About: I have years of experience caring for my own pets — a 9-year-old Ragdoll cat, an 8-year-old orange tabby, and a sweet Mini Pinscher. My calm and gentle nature helps me connect easily with animals. I’m great with walking dogs, playing and bonding with them, and caring for cats with patience and love. Every pet I meet feels like family to me. I’m a licensed acupuncturist who works in a healing clinic. I’ve always loved animals and wanted to spend my free days doing something meaningful with them. I balance my work as an acupuncturist with my love for animals. On my free days, I enjoy walking, playing, and relaxing with pets-it’s my favorite way to unwind. I treat every home and pet with great respect and care. I maintain their normal routine for meals, walks, and playtime to minimize stress. I’m attentive to details—monitoring their mood, energy, and comfort level—and always make sure they’re safe and relaxed. I communicate with pet parents regularly with updates and pictures.
About: I have taken care of dogs most of my life! I try my best to pick up on their body language and care for them as needed. I currently work part time and go to school. I am mostly available Friday through Monday but I may be able to work around your schedule! Please feel free to message me with any questions! I would love to make friends with your fur babies to gain their love and trust! I will care for them as if they were my own pups!
“Gabrielle took wonderful care of our cat, Izzy, while we were out of town. She stopped by for the initial meeting, sent a thorough summary of all that we discussed, and then kept me informed daily as to how things were going. She not only took great care of Izzy, including giving her daily medication, she also managed to make friends with her! Izzy is normally very uncomfortable around people outside of our family so that was a real accomplishment. Gabrielle also watered our plants daily. I will definitely call on her again for future pet sitting needs!”
“Jillian watched our cat over the Thanksgiving holiday. Like always, she sent us detailed updates and showed our pet lots of love. We had an issue with our building maintenance while we were away and Jillian was so patient and responsive as we worked through the issue. Jillian is our favorite (and our cat’s favorite) sitter!”
“Alma was amazing with my two kitties! One of my cats is super shy and I was worried she would hide the whole time, but she warmed up to Alma right away and I felt so relieved when Alma sent me videos of my babies purring and happy. Also my automatic cat feeder got jammed one day and stopped working, but Alma fixed it for me:) So worth it! Alma is the best. I will definitely request her again to watch my kitties for my next trip!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. Having pets myself, my oldest dog being 11, I have experience in taking care of senior dogs but I also have a 3 y/o and have raised puppies myself so I am aware of everything that requires a young pup to a senior. I’m working part-time because of college so I would love to enjoy some more time with dogs!!! I am home almost everyday and don’t usually go out so I love being at home with my doggy’s! I have two friendly dogs, 1 a senior pup so he isn’t much involved and another 3 year old who loves meeting new friends and he needs friends to play with!! I also have a small fenced backyard which my dogs use to always go outside

So thankful Jeannie was able to help out with my pups. She dropped in while I was away and gave my 3 pups great TLC. The pups had no complaints and neither did I. She followed all my instructions, showed up on time and played with them too. I would no hesitate to use her again.
Leah did an amazing job with our two pups, Raven and Cole. She was extremely communicative and took constant photos and detailed notes of her visits with the pups to let us know they were well cared for. She even left a present for the dogs- a few toys and a thoughtful note! We will definitely use her again as it’s been a fantastic experience!
Gabi’s been a great sitter for our pups! She pays close attention, listens to our pups’ needs, and communicates clearly every step of the way. She’s always responsive, which gives us peace of mind while we’re away and we feel confident that our pups are n good hands. Highly recommend!
Annesha is so detail oriented and tries so hard to please not only the puppies but the owners!! She asks all the right questions and is so wonderful in every way! She kept in touch a lot and snapped some adorable pics of our babies (she watched our five dogs all ar once! Thank you Annesha!!!🥰🥰

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 Olney 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!

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.

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
