About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals! I’ve grown up with lots of cats, dogs & more! I currently work at my local animal shelter as a Behavior trainer, and I treat all of the fur babies as if they were my own until they get their furever home. I care about each of them and only wanna make them feel love special and cared for! Since I'm working part-time right now, I have plenty of open time to dedicate to your fur baby. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. My days are flexible, so I can give your pup my full attention - whether that's a nice long walk, playing fetch at the park, doing food puzzles for mental enrichment, or just hanging out for lots of love and pets while they enjoy a bone. I'm happy to stick to whatever routine makes them most comfortable. As the owner of a 1.5-year-old rescued Doberman mix, I understand how much care, exercise, and enrichment dogs need to thrive. My boy gets daily physical exercise plus mental stimulation through enrichment, puzzle toys, and Kongs. I bring that same standard of care to every pet I watch - just let me know your pet's routine and needs, and I will follow it to the T. As for Safety is always my #1 priority - whether we’re out and about in town or on a quiet hike in the woods.
“Casie is so great!! She gives great updates. I know my pupper gets great attention and love, and is well taken care of when Casie is with him. I would highly recommend her!!”
“Bronte provided pictures & detailed information about her walks with Jade. I can tell that Jade really enjoyed being out with Bronte & that reassured me that I made the perfect choice by selecting her. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Kaitlin arrived on time, took our dog out in this frosty weather and managed to get Bentley moving despite the snow and ice. She is very friendly, responsible and conscientious- I felt comfortable when I first met her and I’m very happy with the quality of her work.”
About: I have six years of hands on experience with dogs, including volunteering at the Baltimore SPCA, where I handled intake, socialization, and daily care for dogs of all temperatures. I have also trained the dogs that I have had. I work full-time, but my schedule rotates every three weeks — so I always have afternoons free after four, plus two full days off each week. That means I’m available for midday walks, evening visits, and weekend coverage without any gaps. My dogs get a set daily rhythm in the morning and evening walks, scheduled meals, and plenty of rest so I know firsthand what a consistent routine looks like from the inside. Also I follow the owner’s routine exactly feeding times, meds, play, potty breaks and send photo updates after each visit so they always know how their pet’s doing.
“Shelby was so nice and helpful, she send me pictures about Pisco and treat him very well, and follow all my instructions to take care of him ✨ I’ll definitely call her again in the future if I need more help with my pup ! Thank you so much Shelby!”
About: Hey, I'm Stephanie! I'm a dog walker and pet visitor based in Baltimore. I walk dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I also do drop-in visits for cats—basically any furry friend you have at home. I've been around pets my whole life. I’m currently a cat mom to two very energetic kittens and helped train my father’s boxers. I volunteered at an animal shelter in Washington state for years until recently relocating to Baltimore. I'm patient, reliable, and great with anxious or high-energy dogs. I'm available Monday through Friday from 7am to 2pm. I live in Charles Village and work from home, so I can fit walks or visits into my schedule easily. Let's make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve! My sons bus picks him up at 6:15 am so I have the entire morning and afternoon to care for your pet until about 2pm I understand every animal is different so I’m willing to be as hands on or laid back as your pet needs me to be and I’m very understanding towards anxious pets that need me to build their trust and affection

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! Aside from cats and dogs, I’ve worked with other animals and feel very comfortable with any animal! 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 absolutely love dogs! I adopted my puppy from Paws Crossed Rescue in Elmsford, NY. There were so many families that wanted him they had to do a lottery and we got him!! Taking care of your fur baby is my priority I do real estate and make my own hours so I'm always available.

About: My dad was a veterinarian and my mom was a vet technician, so I've always lived in a house full of pets. I've taken care of and house-sat for both dogs and cats, and even had a few goldfish. I've taken care of dogs of all ages growing up and love watching them grow! I'm currently awaiting an assignment on a wildfire team, so currently have plenty of time to go for walks and check in on pets/ When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priorities are maintaining their established routine, ensuring their safety, and providing reliable peace of mind for the owner. * **Following Established Routines:** I strictly adhere to the owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication, exercise, and house rules. Keeping their environment and daily rhythm consistent helps minimize stress while their family is away. * **Safety & Home Security:** I maintain complete focus on safety, ensuring all doors, windows, and gates remain secure. During walks, I stay vigilant of surroundings and leash mechanics to avoid potential hazards or unwanted interactions with other animals. * **Attentive Care & Exercise:** I provide high-engagement attention, whether that means active exercise, interactive play, or quiet companionship depending on the pet’s energy level and age. * **Respectful House Care & Communication:** I treat the client's home with absolute respect, leaving things tidy and secure. After every check-in or walk, I send a brief update with photos so the owner knows their pet is safe, relaxed, and well cared for. I approach every home visit with patience, clear attention to detail, and the same high standard of care I would expect for my own pets.
“Susan was a BLESSING for me and my dog when we needed a last minute check-in. She was so incredibly thorough and took great care to make sure she fit our routine and connected with Birdy. I recommend Susan to absolutely anyone who’s looking for competent care, a bubbly personality, and patience with an energetic and home-defending fuzz butt!!! We loved her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Pikesville
Thomas walks Atlas 3 times a week and he is always very communicative and cordial. He is attentive to Atlas' needs and adapts well to both our dog's size and leash reactivity, knowing when to change routes, take a break, or return home early if needed. Atlas is always thrilled to see him and comes home satisfied from their trips. Thomas is also very observant of any physical changes to dogs in his care and has good instincts with how best to proceed during unique situations. His background in Canine Search & Rescue no doubt helps Thomas get a feel for new animals quickly and was one of the reasons we initially reached out to him. Having Thomas as a walker has been a wonderful experience and our buddy is benefitting greatly from his expertise.
Jeremy is a wonderful walker for us! Atlas took to him immediately and is always excited to see his new friend when he arrives. They get along great, Jeremy is very attentive to his needs, and Atlas returns home thoroughly satisfied after each trip. Jeremy's experience with dogs has been a huge boon; he handles large breeds well and has a unique insight to their behaviors thanks to his time working with sled dogs.
Our experience with Erika was extraordinary. She is caring, compassionate, and Egan gets excited each time she comes. Thank you for supporting our family in these challenging times and we will definitely be contacting you for our future needs and refer you to our friend group 🐶❤️

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
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 Pikesville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Every walker 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.

- 92% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
