“Tabitha was great with Riley.. I knew from the first meeting and Riley’s response to her she was a good choice. She took the time to care for her as well as play. She even added a day last minute which I really appreciated! I would definitely book with her again anytime I need a dogsitter.”
“Lorena is super sweet, this was our first time ever using rover and we were super nervous about it. I️ loved that she scheduled a meet up prior so we got to meet her and she got to meet the dogs. She was great, she listened well and sent lots of photos of our happy dogs. Definitely will use her again!”
About: I’ve been a pet owner most of my life and have taken care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I am the one they always rely on to care for there’s pets and I hope to do the same for you. I’m currently looking for a job, so I will have lots of free time to care for your pets, and with flexible scheduling to what days you might need. Caring for pets at the client’s home I would make sure to ask where they keep the food, treats, toys for the pets, and cleaning supplies just in case if they make an accident by chance.
“I could not be happier with Sam and the excellent care he provided for my dog, Walter! I needed to be out of town for the better part of a week, and having just moved to town, did not have any friends or family to watch after my large canine; Sam to the rescue! I had never used this service or this site before, so initially was a tad skeptical. After Sam's quick response, and then after meeting him in person, I knew Walter would be in good hands. I initially approached him requesting two walks per day, but due to his reasonable pricing, I suggested that I would be interested in adding a third walk every day. Even though I'm sure it was a bit out of the way, he accepted the extra work with alacrity. On top of all this, when I needed to put Walter on antibiotics last-minute, Sam was more than happy to administer the medicine. It was clear from the "Rover Cards" that Walter was getting great walks, and truly first-rate overall care. I would absolutely use Sam's service again, and would recommend him to anyone needing hassle-free, reliable care. I hope he is available if and when I need him again. Thanks Sam!”
“Thanks so much for the silly pics, fresh nails 💅🏻 and handling her so well with the off leash dog…those are always such nerve wracking encounters! You’re the best!”
“Mel is fantastic with Molly and Buz. She’s very flexible with my crazy schedule and ready to help with visiting family’s pets ranging from an American Lab to a couple of Boston Terriers. She also kept my plants going when I was unexpectedly out of town.”
“Elizabeth is dependable and communicative, which is extremely important to me. She came when she said she would, left cards on Rover with details of Nya's walk, and was a pleasure to deal with. We will be booking with her again!”
“Abigail was very responsive and very communicative when taking care of Jett. She asked plenty of great questions to make sure Jett was getting the best care possible. She also Toone great photos to show he was having a great time. Jett was a bit stubborn getting back inside (probably because he was having so much fun with Abigail), but when we got home he was in a fabulous mood. Will definitely ask her to watch our little guy in the future.”
“Stephanie was awesome. I needed someone to come walk my puppy, my regular dog walker couldn’t do it and Stephanie was happy to help. She took Willow for a 1/2 hr walk made sure she had water. She sent plenty of pictures was very easy to communicate with just an overall sweet person! I really liked her and will use her in the future! Highly recommend Stephanie!”
“Sophie did an amazing job with my dogs per usual and I know they gave her more trouble than they would give me. I'm forever grateful for her and trust her to care for my dogs 🐕”
“Sadie loved her walk with Kathleen, and I am so appreciative to have had Kathleen to care for Sadie while I was away! Kathleen was reliable and even took some extra time after the walk to make sure Sadie’s paws were wiped from the salt & ice outside. I know Sadie will be excited to see Kathleen again soon!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Patapsco
Lorena was an amazing dog walker for our senior 17 year old dog! She made sure to get acquainted with him at our Meet and Greet and understand his unique needs as a senior dog. Lorena was patient, understanding, and professional. She sent updates and photos regularly. Lorena mastered the challenging task of walking him in the rain when he does not like the rain! I definitely would book with Lorena again. I highly recommend her!
Kathi did a fantastic job walking my dog, Allie. She was always on time, good communicator, showed she genuinely cared about Allie's well-being. She made sure Allie got good, fulfilling walks and paid close attention to her needs the entire time. I’m so grateful and highly recommend her!
Catherine is a wonderful dog walker. She has a great rapport with my dogs and makes their health and safety her top priority. She communicates before, during, and after her walks with my dogs and sends fun photos. I highly recommend Catherine as a dog walker. Thanks for another great walk, Catherine. The dogs are happy and tired.
This was my first time using Rover and I was a little anxious about leaving my fur baby with someone, but Nakea eased my anxiety. She provided pictures upon pick up and drop off for walks, she was extremely communicative throughout the process and answered any questions I had. I highly recommend Nakea and will be using her for future walks!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Patapsco. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
