About: I’m an experienced and reliable dog caregiver with a background caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including puppies, seniors, and more challenging breeds. I offer drop-in visits, walks, and overnight boarding, always focusing on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work full-time with a rotating schedule, but I’m available all day on my days off and in the mornings on workdays for visits, walks, and feedings. I live in a quiet condo with open space nearby. I have a friendly dog for companionship or can keep pets separated if needed, with extra rooms and a crate available for safety.
“I can always rely on Danielle to respond quickly. She’s reliable and is a HUGE stress reliever knowing that my pup is being well taken care of. I’ve rebooked her numerous times now, and she has never disappointed”
“I had the pleasure of working with Casie sitter for my cat, Storm, and she was absolutely phenomenal. From the start, she was well-prepared and proactive in her approach to caring for Storm. Her communication was clear and consistent, and her knowledge about cat care was evident throughout. I felt completely at ease knowing Storm was in such capable hands. I highly recommend Casie to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
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.
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!
“Fantastic! Bronte took such great time and attention to our 3 kitties. Our one boy has daily medication and she made sure to prioritize this in her visits and make him comfortable while receiving them as well. Would highly recommend Bronte for your pets care!”
“Christine is a wonderful cat sitter -- reliable, responsive, and so great with Lilah, who is cautious around new people. Lilah felt safe to emerge and interact with Christine by day 2, which is record time! I can tell Christine loves cats, and I felt at ease with Christine dropping in to take care of Lilah's needs. She was very thorough with feeding, watering, washing the used kitty dishes, and scooping litter.”
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.
“Chelsea was responsive, reliable, and took excellent care of my two cats, including a cat that requires insulin injections every 12 hours. She also takes very good pictures! I looked forward to the photos from her check-ins and appreciated her willingness to see my babies twice a day over the holidays.”
“Aye is terrific. She took care of Mr Kitty for a week visiting twice a day. She was always on time for each visit. And from every visit I received a nice report on how things went along with many pictures. Aye gave Mr Kitty a lot of attention - they bonded and became good buddies. I felt good that he was safe and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Aye and will be using her again next I am away.”
About: I've had pets my whole life, so I understand what they need to feel safe and happy. I live with two dogs and have experience caring for a variety of animals from large dogs to guinea pigs. As a high school graduate, my schedule is fairly flexible. I have a part time job but I am available most of the day to care for your animals. I only care for pets in a clients home. I would respect all household rules and give your pet my full attention making sure to care for them with kindness.
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 provide reliable, compassionate pet care for busy pet owners who want peace of mind while they're at work, traveling, or away from home. My services include dog walking, cat visits, feeding, fresh water replenishment, litter box cleaning, and general pet care. I understand that pets are family, which is why I focus on giving each animal the attention, companionship, and care they deserve. During visits, I don't just stop by to feed your pet—I also spend quality time with them, providing playtime, affection, and companionship to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you're away.

I show immense care for your pet as I know that your pet is a part of your family. I will always treat your pet as part of my family too!
“Sophie was amazing!! I have an 80lb lab that is pretty high energy with some medical needs. I booked Sophie for drop in visits for 4 days. Sophie was incredibly thorough in her preparation, attention to detail, and communication. She took my dog to the park everyday, sent multiple pictures, and was very intentional about making sure my dog did not get over-heated outside with the current heat wave. If you're looking for someone to treat your pup like they're a VIP at the Four Seasons, book Sophie!”
“I am incredibly pleased with the service provided by my dog walker, Shania. She is the epitome of reliability, always punctual and flexible to accommodate my schedule. Shania's sweet demeanor makes her a favorite not just for me but also for my Remi, who eagerly looks forward to their walks together. Her consistent dedication and professionalism have been a tremendous support. I never have to worry about missed appointments, and I truly appreciate her adaptability. Without a doubt, I give Shania a well-deserved 5-star rating. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring dog walker!”
“Susan did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were away. We felt totally confident in her ability to care for our pets. I highly recommend Susan for your pet care needs!”
About: I’ve cared for a family dog and a dog of my own for 1 year. My own dog is a pitbull mix, who was high energy and untrained when I adopted him. I have experience with all kinds of training levels and dog strength and am excited to meet your animal! I also foster dogs when I can I work full time and am out of the house for 9 hours 8-5 Monday-Friday, but my routine includes feeding and a short walk in the morning, followed by an extended walk and dinner in the evenings. Lots of snuggle time at night! I live in a community with a lot of greenery and space to walk dogs, as well as a dog park for them to run around unleashed!
About: I’ve cared for my own pets at home, dogs and cats, so I’m very used to their routines and daily needs. I also spent a year working at a boarding kennel, where I took care of dogs and cats by feeding them, taking them on walks, giving medication when needed, and making sure they felt safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m currently on summer break from college and have a very flexible schedule with plenty of free time to provide consistent, reliable care for your pets! I do not provide in-home care on Rover due to other animals in my home, ensuring safety and comfort for all pets currently not available.

Erika was wonderful with my two kitties! They were going through a finicky stage so I had to transition them to a raw diet which was a bit detailed. Erika followed everything to the letter! I love that she sent me daily photos. It was very much appreciated! Thank you Erika for giving the love and care ❤️
Kristen A. is a lifesaver! I ended up having to go to the ER after thinking I can just get taken care of at the urgent Care. That led to almost a full week Hospital stay, my pup Oreo was home and because I didn't know how long I'd be there thinking maybe a day or so I decided maybe to try doing drop-in appointments and allowing him to stay home. She came faithfully twice a day giving my dog so much love and attention! She is very good with communication giving updates on how he was doing and sending copious pictures, and very sensitive to my situation. I would definitely recommend her to anyone for drop in care!
Shakiyla was an absolutely fantastic sitter! She is so knowledgeable about how to care for a big, very loving but also high energy dog like my Alba, and I felt very comfortable knowing my baby was in her care while i was so far away. She is professional, kind, responsive, and an excellent trainer as well, and I will absolutely be requesting her services in the future. Highly recommend, especially if you have a bully breed dog!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Pikesville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Pikesville. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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 pet, 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.
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 sitter.
