“Samantha was responsive and did a good job taking care of our shy cats. She made sure they were fed and the litter boxes were kept clean. She provided pictures of their food & water bowls during her visits because the cats were in hiding when she came by, as expected. I would definitely contact Samantha again if we need kitty care.”

“Trevor was absolutely wonderful! He put so much care into updating us and sending us photos! He made our cat very comfortable and was sure to play with her lots. He allowed us to enjoy our vacation without being anxious about her. Would absolutely have Trevor do drop in visit again!”

About: I have a 8 year old Shih tzu that is my best friend. I also have 2 others dogs in my family house. I am caring and the dogs can sense that. If you need someone to cuddle and walk your dog and keep your puppy happy, then I am the sitter for you. I am a college student and also take care of my 3 household dogs. I walk them, feed them, give water, and give lots of cuddles. Dogs naturally come to me. I will follow all instructions that are given to me. My only wish is to keep your dogs and home safe and happy. I am reliable and will follow every direction.

About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds through out my life. My mom worked for the state of South Carolina rescuing all kinds of four legged babies, some she got to bring home!! My dad rescued pitbulls from dog fighting and abusive homes, we had 13 pitbulls at once!! I loved every second of it, he taught me from a young age that animals have feelings like people and some animals suffer trauma just like people and because of that, those are the ones that need extra love. Ever since then I followed him around for every feeding, every walk, every training. I’m unable to have to have animals in my new home and I miss them a lot so I’d love the opportunity to care for your fur babies as if they were my own Currently I do have a full time job Monday -Friday but I am free in the evenings and on weekends. I also have all national holidays off I can’t care for pets in my home due to my roommates allergies however I’m very neat, I’m very respectful of others spaces, and love a schedule/routine so you have a “scary” list of care needs for your pet then I’m a perfect fit!
“Margaret was wonderful! She visited us to meet Riley and learn her routine before we officially booked her. She kept us up-to-date on her visits and I could tell Riley took to her so easily. I felt so comfortable getting away and knowing our pup was happy and taken care of. I will definitely book Margaret again!”

“Alison is great!! Alison has come to my house twice so far and have taken good care of my baby Charlie. She is trustworthy, always on time, lets him out in the yard, spends time with him, and always refreshes his water. You will definitely be happy with Alison!”
About: Caring for animals has always come naturally to us, my husband and I have had pets (dogs, cats, hamsters, birds) all our lives — our last adoption of two bonded, senior rescues in 2017 was truly life-changing. Eddie, a gentle yet protective lab mix, and Willie, a spirited and stocky, dachshund mix, helped teach our daughter what unconditional love fully looks like, while reminding our family the special bonds that come from the gift of furry family members. We had seven amazing years with them! Since then we've become our neighborhood's pet sitters for dog's and cats alike - enjoying missed pet cuddles, while support friends who need to be away for a bit. An aspect that really helped us was working with the wonderful trainers at DogWorks in Baltimore, when our good-boys first arrived. It vastly helped them adjust, and gave us the awareness to become more responsive, respectful, and emotionally present caretakers. We still feel care taking starts with listening~ to instructions, but also to pet’s body language, rhythm, and preferences. We’ve cared for senior dogs who needed patience and understanding while they learned to trust again, puppies who have unlimited energy and child-like needs, as well as pets with medical and emotional needs. Now that we're pet empty-nesters, and experience and trust with friends and family's pets, we wanted to open our home to support a broader range of family's who could use one-on-one care like we did. We have a fully fenced in quarter-acre back yard, a pet-friendly house, and a seven year old daughter who wants to be a Vet when she grows up :). I’m currently working a hybrid schedule, while my husband, Bobby, is fully remote working at home. (Even when we're in a meeting we've even left the Pet Channel or the cartoon Bluey (since its produced only in colors dogs can see!) streaming for additional comfort ;) It's rewarding to have flexible schedule ensuring pets are rarely (if ever) be left alone. Weekends and holidays are available too, especially if you know if advance for time to plan ahead, please just ask :) We treat every pet as if they were our own!~ Safe Environment: Our home is smoke-free, pet-proofed, and has a securely fenced yard. Health & Comfort: We follow your instructions exactly, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or training routines. Supervision: We never leave visiting pets outside unattended. Updates: Expect photo and message updates so you know your furry friend is happy and safe.
“Brian was absolutely wonderful with our Bernedoodle puppy Oreo! Despite Oreo being a 60+ pound bundle of adolescent energy, Brian handled him with patience, confidence, and ease. He was always on time, professional, and genuinely caring. Oreo absolutely loved his visits and that says everything. Highly recommend Brian without hesitation. Will definitely book again!”

About: Hi, I’m Haile! I’ve taken care of pets ranging from cats and dogs, to other animals. I love any and all animals and will provide attentive and gentle care to all pets that are in my care :) I’m currently going to school full time! I have classes Monday-Thursday, with enough notice (24hrs) I can plan my days around pet care! Fri-Sun I have full availability, and on school breaks. I am reliable with bookings and always will make sure your pets get the time, care, and attention they need! I have hands-on experience caring for cats, dogs, and other animals, so I’m comfortable working with animals of many different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve cared for playful pets, shy and anxious ones, and those who simply prefer a calm, predictable routine. For cats, I provide patient, low-stress care with attention to feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving them the space when needed. For dogs, I’m experienced with walking, feeding schedules, play, and handling. I always focus on making pets feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their humans are away! I also have experience handling hedgehogs, including feeding, cleaning cages, and handling them gently and correctly. Because hedgies are sensitive and easily stressed, I’m especially careful about temperature, routine, and quite surroundings. I treat every pet like their my own and always pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and wellbeing so you can feel confident your pets are in good and loving hands!
About: I have always loved dogs and have helped friends and family with dog-sitting whenever needed. I have been a pet parent for over 5 years and am very empathetic to their needs and wants. I currently work 6am-2:30pm Monday-Friday. But I can do walks anytime outside of those hours. As long as you're ok that I wouldn't be there 100% of the time, I'm open to sitting on weekdays as well as weekends. I currently don't have any pets of me own at the moment, but I love to play and cuddle and make sure their needs are covered as well. Please let me know about any specific safety comcerns, so I can make sure I take the best care possible of your furry friend(s).

About: **Please Note: From June 17th thru July 31st during the week I will be available between 7-8:30 AM and after 5:30 PM. I am still available to accept dog sitting requests!** Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals of all sizes and personalities. Growing up, my family had a Shih Tzu named Peppa, and over the years I’ve cared for several dogs including a pit bull named Blu and my energetic little furball, Oreo. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable working with both small and large breeds. Friends often joke that I’m a “dog whisperer” because I’m naturally attentive to dogs’ personalities and needs. I believe every dog deserves patience, affection, and a safe environment while their owner is away. I have experience with basic grooming such as brushing, bathing, and teeth cleaning, and I’m happy to help keep your pup comfortable and cared for. While I don’t do professional trimming, I’m always attentive to maintaining your dog’s routine and well-being. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight sitting, my goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos so you know how your furry friend is doing. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I have flexible availability, just let me know and I’ll work with you. I prefer morning and afternoons but if I know in advance I can work with evening schedules as well! There are plenty of grassy areas (including a huge hill that is popular for the pups to run down) surrounding my place. There are also some cool parks that I'd likely take your pup to. I aim to make your pet feel as comfortable/at home as possible.
“Went above and beyond each and every day for us and our pup! It's very clear she genuinely cares about our dog & his happiness. She additionally was very accommodating to us and made sure we had no worries when we were away. Fantastic all around. Thank you!”

About: I've taken care of pets all my life, with always having at least one dog and one cat at a time, but also having up to three dogs, one cat, and several fish as well. I love any type of animal, and spending time with them is very special to me. I am a very active person so walking your floofer is not a problem! I've also cared for senior dogs as well, as well as taking care of family's and friend's pets over the years. I am currently unemployed as I am a student in college, but when I come home from breaks I am very eager to make your lives easier and watch your pets for you. Since I'll be available mostly over the holiday season as well as summer, it's perfect timing for when you travel to see your family or go on vacations! I will follow any instructions given as to the best way to care for your pet, and I will make sure they're as comfortable and happy as possible!
About: As a proud owner of 3 dogs and a cat, I will strive to make your pet feel like my own. Loved, cherished, and lots of belly rubs. Right now my only priority is to focus on my upcoming school year! Besides that I am free on weekdays and weekends. Day and night! I care for my dogs in my home by providing them with the enrichment they need. Whether that is playing tug of war or treat hide and seek!
“Roy has repeatedly done an outstanding job with all of our pets, and we are deeply grateful to him for the excellent service that he has provided us with. We have been able to go on vacation with no worries whatsoever! 😊”

About: I have taken care of animals all of my life. I have had cats all my life, even had 9 once because mama decided to have kittens. I have had mostly medium to small dogs including beagals, Maltese, Lhasa Apso, etc. My sister has a husky and I also help dog sit her as well. I currently have a jackapoo, tabby cat, and a ball python. I love taking care of animals and find it fun to meet new furfriends. I work full-time, but I am able to drive to a place to and from work, especially on the weekends when I am off work. I am very nice and I am willing to follow all steps needed to make your pet(s) feel safe while you are away. I will always have treats for doggies and some catnip for the kitties.

About: I’m taking a break from work to pass an exam. I now have all day availability and I adore dogs! I have grown up with dogs my entire life and now I have two of my own! I’ve helped out with Lab Rescue and I’m currently looking to help out with BARCS. I love dogs so much and I will treat them as part of my family! I have all day availability 8am through 10 pm. I’m very flexible and willing to work together to do what I can to make anything work! I will follow anything asked! If there are specific harnesses used, your dog is muzzle trained, etc.. I am willing to learn whatever I need to to keep your pet and everyone safe.
About: I’ve always had a special bond with animals, and my family often trusts me to care for their dogs. I look forward to making you and your pets happy too. I have a wonderful Standard Poodle named Stormi Bless. Caring for pets is my part-time job while I’m also pursuing a degree in Criminal Justice. I’m confident I can build a strong connection with your dog and provide them with the love and attention they deserve. When I look after my family’s dogs, I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I’m always mindful of their needs, whether it’s time for a walk, a meal, or just some extra care. This is currently my part time job as I am in college as well. I currently take up criminal justice, but I am sure to connect with your dog and show them support. When taking care of my family pets I am sure to make sure their dogs get attention, love, and the play time they need. When a pet shows signs of needing a walk or it’s time for food I pay attention to it all.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Owings Mills
Jason was fantastic with our dog while we were gone. We were a little nervous since this was the first time we had left someone unknown with our dog and our dog can be a little “weird” in general when we leave him. However, he came downstairs every time Jason came without a problem. We got updates every time Jason came to the house which included pictures. He also independently initiated bringing in our packages and asking if we would like him to take our garbage to the curb. This was a great first experience using Rover and Jason and we will definitely be using him again in the future. Thanks again for everything!

We had a great experience with our sitter! Despite inclement snow weather, she was dependable and showed up as scheduled, which we truly appreciated. She followed all of our instructions carefully and took excellent care of both of our dogs. It was such a relief knowing they were in reliable hands. The best part of my day was receiving the videos and photos. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to others. This was my first time using this service and she walked me through it as well.

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.
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 Owings Mills 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!
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.

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.
