“Maria was a great help and our two medium sized pit mixes sure loved the company, treats, and snuggles! She sent pictures each day, brought in our mail for us, left the house how she found it, and was always very communicative. Will definitely be asking Maria to watch our pups for future trips!”
“Can’t say enough positive things about Raimey! She’s taken care of my two kitties a few times now. Most recently one of my babies was a little sick and required medication two times a day. I was a bit nervous with this falling around the time I was travelling but Raimey made me feel very comfortable and handled it like a pro. She’s great with animals and gives regular updates throughout the day! I highly recommend her for your pet needs ☺️”
“Zana was wonderful. She communicated with me throughout with ease. She sent photos and was an excellent sitter with my pup and kitties. Highly recommend.”
“This was my first time having Jackie house sit and care for my two loving, energetic doggies. She is amazing. She made sure that I had a carefree vacation sending me pics and updates which put my mind at ease while I was away. She was very attentive and genuinely interested in providing the best care for my babies in my absence. I came home to a clean home and happy doggies. If I could give her 6 stars I would.”
About: I’m currently training to be a therapist so I have a keen sense for emotions… pets included! I’ve dog sat for family numerous times and am hoping to branch out. I love being around animals, am a very easy guest, and will happily send you any pictures of your pets! I have class 1-9pm on Monday and Wednesday but am mostly free otherwise! I get up early to swim twice a week (Fri and Sat), but can go straight back if needed. I don’t do much, so I’m pretty open! I’m willing to do whatever I can to help the pet feel safe and welcomed. Whether they want to play, rest, eat, or walk, I’m happy to help them out!
“Jennifer took such great care of our babies! She sent photos and updates which reassured as a pet parent hating to be away. 100% would recommend if you want your fur babies being left in safe and trusting hands.”
“Jasmine took great care of my two dogs for the weekend. Lots of check ins and pictures. It was my first time using Rover and had a great experience. Already booked with her again!”
“Lois goes above and beyond. She genuinely cares about our dog PeeWee and it shows. It’s great to get pictures and videos of their time together. Our dog loves it when she watches him. We couldn’t be happier.”
“Asia was very communicative and flexible with my schedule, and she did a wonderful job caring for my dogs. They had a lot of cuddles, walks, and photos taken throughout the visit. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
About: I specialize with big dogs and elderly dogs. I'm a taller guy with a longer walking stride so larger dogs can get more for workout. My schedule is daily throughout the whole day. I normally like to plan 24 hours in advance but if my schedule is open I don't mind same day or last minute. Tuesday -Thursday from 11am-3pm I am not available I currently have no pets right now at my home I do have a rather large backyard. At the parents home, I do make sure that the pets are well fed and hydrated before leaving unless otherwise told.
“Caroline was amazing! She was so caring and sweet to my furbaby over the weekend. She provided constant updates with messages and pictures and my cat was really comfortable and happy with her. She’s super professional and I would definitely recommend her.”
About: A friendly, responsible couple who treats every pet like family. We have 6 years of experience with puppies and small dogs. Our family has three dogs and two cats, and we took care of all of them since they were born. We make sure our furry friends have all the care and affection they need. My husband and I have flexible jobs. We can accommodate our time with yours with no issues. We just need a few days in advance for the bookings. We take care of them, and we protect them as if they were our pets. We have a lot of patience and affection for those furry family members of yours.
About: I have well over a decade caring for fur babies! With me, you can trust your babies will be in terrific hands. From growing up with my own pets, and caring for others, I have tons of experience I have dogs, cats, frogs, and fish. My babies are cared for and loved on daily. I am happy to accommodate your pets schedule to keep their routine as close to normal as possible. I understand how stressful it can be having someone care for your pets. At my home, you can have piece of mind that we have a fenced in yard. If caring at your home, I can offer drop in visits, or stay there. Daily check ins will be provided.
“This was our first time leaving our kids with anyone that wasn’t family or a close friend—and Lady and Kharyi really put us at ease and made our experience painless. I really appreciated their flexibility and their willingness to babysit our kids on such short notice. They were patient with our kids and really guaged each one according to their own individual needs and personality differences. Receiving pictures and messages in real time was also so comforting. Thank you so much, Lady & Kharyi. Daizy, Emma, and Biggy appreciated your company!”
About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals since I was a little girl. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages as well as with cats and birds. I'm a home gardener too, so you can count on me to care for your yard or your houseplants. I do have a day job, so weekday visit times are limited to before 6:30 am and after 5:00 pm. I work full time in the Glen Arm area of Baltimore County, but provided I can commute from your location I can stay at your home. My weekends are almost always free. I also make frequent visits to Pensacola FL, and will happily accept weekend sits in any part of the country! I will make sure your pet has everything they need for the day before I head out in the morning, and depending on distance I may be able to come back during lunch break as well. My evenings will be spent at your home with your pet.
“Taya did such an amazing job watching our new rescue Boh, who’s a lot to handle right now. And Rico our little elderly gentleman- two totally different dogs at once. THE BEST PART was she stayed overnight with them, neither dog has ever been left alone so I was so appreciative she did that for us. All instructions were followed meticulously and we have already rebooked her for a trip when we are out of the country in 30 days. 10/10 would recommend her all day as your go to pet guru.”
“Amy was wonderful to work with! She sent me plenty of updates on both of my pets and even stopped by on the last day to let my dog out one extra time. I’m so happy to have found a great sitter on the first try and I’ll definitely be rebooking!”
“Sierra did a great job dogsitting my senior dog and housesitting while I was out of town for a long weekend! She sent updates and pictures, which was very reassuring!”
About: I've grown up around animals (cats, dogs, & snakes) and actively cared for them for as long as I can remember! I currently own 2 cats and foster three more, one of whom has special needs. My partner and I also have a room full of fish tanks, both fresh and saltwater, so finned friends are no problem. I have owned reptiles previously, so I am open to a wide variety of pets (or plants) in all shapes and sizes. My availability is very open, since pet-sitting is my primary job. Weekends or weekdays work equally well for me. I will structure my schedule around whatever pet I am house-sitting for, to give you the peace of mind that they're healthy and happy while you aren't home. Each animal is unique— I love spending quality time with them so I can get to know their individual personalities and quirks. I enjoy putting in the extra effort to earn their trust. I am experienced with elderly pets, and can give medications if necessary. I can help maintain long-haired pets' coats. I have seen all sorts of pet-related messes, and I have no problem cleaning them up. I will gladly learn the needs of each pet, and adapt to make them as comfortable as possible while you're away!
“I needed to go out of town for the day and wanted someone to spend more time with Millie than just periodic walks. Imani was perfect. She accepted the job at the last minute. She is a great communicator and very kind. Millie did great and I could enjoy my day. Thank you, Imani!”
Overlea pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lois was wonderful! She took on our two beagles and walked them all over the neighborhood . She sent pictures religiously and some videos. House was probably cleaner than we left her when we got home. If we could give her more stars, we would. I think 10 would be appropriate.
Maria took excellent care of our house and our pitbull, Tallulah. She was communicative, responsible, and caring. When we got home, we could tell that our dog had really taken to her. Went above and beyond to make sure all was well after a storm. We would absolutely hire her again!
This is the second time we have used Lauryn. My dog Autumn absolutely adores her. This was a two week break and she was happy to sit again for me and for my sister. I have two parrots and my sister has one. Lots of people won’t housesit for parrots. Lauryn has so no problem doing it. She is very reliable and gives you updates and pictures while you are away. Highly recommend her for your housesitting needs.
This is our second time having Elliot stay with our Bear while we were away. He is a dog whisperer! Bear is huge, leans towards reactivity and Elliot handles all aspects of his care beautifully. I highly recommend Elliot. He makes being away from our big Bear worry free!
We were so lucky to find Grace. She made our trip so much enjoyable knowing that she was there to take care of our boys!! Our dogs really liked her! Parked needed insulin in the mornings and evenings and she was there to help with that!! Archie was extremely comfortable with Grace by sitting on her lap! Thank you Grace for taking such great care of our boys!!!!
Our family absolutely adores Kimmie! We feel so blessed to have such a wonderful neighbor who we can count on to care for our home and pets. I was especially grateful that my vacation lined up with her availability this year—it gave me so much peace of mind knowing everything was in her hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again!
Courtney was caring, gentle and wonderful to our senior dog. She house and pet sat for 8 days. Our dog became very comfortable with her which made our vacation worry free and enjoyable. Our family will always count on Courtney for our pet sitting needs and we would highly recommend your family considering her as your first choice in care for your families pet sitting needs.
