“Irene was wonderful to work with. She made twice a day visits to feed my cat and kitten. She was at my house when she said she would be. She cleaned the litter box and followed my directions to feed them. I was really happy each day when she told me she was playing with my kitten! I felt completely at ease on my vacation knowing that Irene was taking care of my kitties! I’ll definitely hire her again!!”


“Michael came through when I suddenly needed someone to care for my dog. He responded promptly, communicated well, followed instructions, and gave my dog TLC.”


About: As a certified dog trainer with experience in pet care and volunteering at the Maryland SPCA, I offer reliable dog walking and attentive pet sitting services to keep pets happy, healthy, and comfortable—whether at home or on the go. I am available daily, with a consistent routine that ensures your pet gets the exercise, attention, and companionship they need to stay happy and healthy. I am dedicated to providing a safe, trustworthy environment for pets, ensuring their well-being through careful attention, responsible care, and my experience as a certified dog trainer.

About: I’m Dan and I love dogs. I’ve always had a K-9 companion and love the company dogs provide. Walks, fresh air and playtime are things I like just as dogs do. I’m caring, loving, and respectful and always treat others the way I want to be treated. I’ve had a dog all throughout my life and have experience caring for animals of different sizes, breeds, and personalities! I have the most experience with Black Labradors, German Shepherds and Beagles, but would care for any pup. I understand how hard it is to be away from your pup so I’ll be in consistent communication, sending photo and text updates so you know how much fun your pup is having in my care. I have a flexible schedule so I can provide the perfect amount of love, activity, and play time in the care of your pup! I can’t wait to get to know you and your dog, creating a communicative, kind, and respectful working relationship. I will provide the same love, care and attention that I would provide my own dog to yours. It’s in my nature to go the extra mile to go above and beyond to make your dog feel like they’re at home! When I’m not spending time with animals, I spend my time working full-time at Mercy Medical Center in Baltimore. I love heading to the gym, reading, playing video games, and spending time with my family. Even though I do work full-time, this will not get in the way of providing an excellent stay for your K-9 companion. I am very flexible and accommodating in order to provide the best possible care for your K-9 friend. I live in an apartment complex in the Rodger's Forge near Towson University in Maryland. Our neighborhood is very green, dog-friendly and wide open for dogs to frolic, play, and jump! The neighborhood is a great fit for any pup! When booking for my services, please keep in contact with me and let me know the dates you wish to have you’re Pup stay over. Once you've contacted me, please let me know a best possible date and time to set up a "Meet and Greet", if needed. Once I accept a booking request, please respond within 24 hours so I can keep my schedule up to date. Please provide clear care instructions for your dog, so I can provide the best possible stay for them. Also, if you have any questions at all regarding my services or any accommodations during you’re Pups stay, please feel free to reach out to me at anytime. I look forward to meeting you and you’re K-9 Companion and hope to build long term relationships and provide outstanding services for both you and you’re Pup! *Please note: Upon picking up your pet, please make sure you have all the items you brought with your pet. I am not responsible for any items left behind. If an item is left behind, it must be picked up within 72 hours. After 72 hours, it will be discarded. Thank You! I work full-time, however I can still take your dog for a brisk walk in the morning and evening. I am off on the weekends so your dog will have plenty of exercise and play time. I have fenced dog park right behind my apartment where your day can be active and interact with other dogs from the neighborhood. I can also crate your dog if necessary.

“Kelly was amazing! She showed up on time everyday and left detailed reports with pictures. My two pups loved her instantly. She was also very easy to work with for some time changes.”


About: My sons and I love dogs and are eager to play with yours. We're an active family capable of lots of play- long walks, hikes, fetch, tug of war, etc. Previously, we had a Rottweiler for 12 years. I'm available 24 hours per day 7 days a week in the summer time when everyone is off from school except during specified dates for personal travel. Expected travel dates are currently 6/30-7/13. I have a large backyard (no fence) with plenty of space and shade. We are also adjacent to a small park and enjoy long walks and hikes. I'm capable of taking dogs in the car to visit dog parks or go for some hikes.

About: I have had a dog my whole life. They truly are man's best friend. Now that I live away from my family's dog, I realize how important dogs are in providing companionship. I would be honored to look after and care for your best friend, aka your dog. I have also be caring for neighbors' dogs since I was 13 years old. I know what it takes to care for and look after your pup. From ensuring correct food portions at dinner time, to giving them time to play outside, to making sure they are comfortable when they go to sleep, I am able to flexibly cater to your and your dog's specific needs. I am responsible, energetic, and prompt. I am currently a researcher at a local university and deal with people all day. They are, more often than not, more difficult to deal with than most dogs! Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or inquiries you may have. I can't wait to meet you and your dog! I currently work from home 3 days out of the week, on most weeks. This usually gives me a lot of flexibility to stop by for walks, drop-ins, or other care. I treat each person's home and their pets as I would my own: consideration, respect, and dignity. Safety and wellbeing for your fur babies and residence is my main priority.

“Andrew was wonderful. This was the 1st time we left our animals with someone not family. He was very attentive to both my cat and dog. Kept in contact every day. I will definitely be using him again and highly recommend him. He is the best!”


About: Hi! My family & I are huge animal lovers! Anyone who knows us knows we love pets and prefer their company to most people. I will spoil your dog as if he/she is mine. I have had dogs in my life since I was a child. They bring so much joy and it’s a relief to know you can go away and not worry about their care. They will be in great hands with me and my teenager. We are both patient, easy going and calm. There will be no babies, small children, smoking, loud noises, or chaos. No need for a crate, unless they prefer one or, are a puppy in training. They may not want to leave after a stay at our house. I would love repeat visits. I work PT from home and have lots of spare time available to care for and play with your fur baby! My teenager is also a huge animal lover and will let your dog sleep in her bed, if your pet is used to that. I can stay at your home and care for your pets, plants, mail, etc. or care for your dog at our home, with a large fenced in yard. I also take dogs on walks around my neighborhood.

“Adrianna took great care of our three cats including giving one of them medication twice a day. She had good communication and was consistently on time. We will book her again when needed and would recommend her to others.”

Growing up surrounded by animals, I’ve developed a deep understanding of animal psychology, which helps me communicate effectively with pets and ensure they feel safe and loved.

This enclosed space allows your cat to enjoy fresh air and a secure outdoor experience, while still being protected and comfortable. Whether in my home or yours, I am committed to creating a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for your pet.

Parkville dog parents share their Rover experiences
Erika did a phenomenal job. From the meet and greet where she took time to not only understand my three dogs needs, but my needs as well. My dogs took to herd immediately. I was gone for a 2 day trip. She followed instructions precisely, which really allowed me to relax while gone. When I came home it was as if I never left. The dogs were calm and happy. I will book again.

Kelsey was so great with our dogs. She kept in good communication with me and kept me updated with what was going on with them. She even sent me updates of our cat who wasn’t included in our agreement. Looking forward to scheduling with her again in the future!

Kara did a fantastic job watching our 3 dogs (a 3-year-old rescue and two 14.5- year-old cockapoos). It was the first time we had to leave our pups with someone they had only met during a Meet & Greet. She came twice a day to let them out and feed them. Each time she came she sent pictures or videos of all 3 pups. Since the cockapoos are elderly, they would sometimes not want to eat or would not take their medications. She would always contact me if she was unsure what she should do. Her concern for the welfare of my dogs allowed me to rest assured that they were well cared for while we were on vacation.

Crissy was outstanding and did an excellent job of caring for my dog while I was away for the weekend. She went above and beyond to assure my pup was comfortable and engaged. My dog is a a rescue pup and trust takes time and Crissy certainly earned it from me and my pup! Thank you immensely!

Andrew was amazing. First time using the Rover app, my wife was a little nervous however Andrew took all the nerves away. With such a big dog not everyone is calm with them but Andrew came in like a pro. Will definitely use Andrew again when needed. Andrew went above and beyond with brushing our big guy and bringing packages in off the porch lol ( not his job) all around 10/10

My favorite part about working with Kelly is how well she communicates, and how thorough she is! From our initial meet and greet to now, she’s been nothing short of wonderful to work with. She was able to get my pup to warm up right away, and she follows anything I’ve laid out for my puppy (what treats he prefers, if he’s on medications, if he can’t be on part of the lawn due to maintenance, etc). Would highly recommend!
