“We were extremely happy with our dog’s stay with Melissa! She is incredibly responsible, always responds quickly, and is exceptionally reliable. We felt completely at ease knowing our dog was in her care. We will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.”
“This was our second time and she is wonderful to work with and sends us pictures of our pup while we are away. We liked seeing him running around the big yard with her pup, playing tug a war, and then snuggling on the sofa. Great trip!”
About: Since 2014, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and pawsonalities — from shy kittens to spicy dogs, plus chickens, bunnies, and even a hermit crab. 🐶🐱🐔🐰🐟 Fostering over 200 pets has made me fluent in body language (pet edition). Whether your pet wants snuggles, space, or serious playtime, I tailor each visit to what makes them happiest. I’m comfortable giving medications* and teaching basic obedience. I also make the experience great for you! I’m a reliable communicator, send plenty of cute pics, and if your pet’s up for it, you’ll come home to a handmade surprise “from your pet.” *If medications are required to be given an additional fee will be negotiated and applied before the booking is confirmed. Pet care fits naturally into my routine — it’s something I genuinely enjoy! I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends, with a flexible schedule that allows me to adapt as needed. I am able to care for about a dozen pets per week and I only book one house-sitting family at a time to ensure each pet gets my full attention. Walks and drop-ins can easily be added into my day, especially Monday through Friday. Pet care is both relaxing and rewarding for me — I love building relationships with the pets I visit, and I think they look forward to our time together just as much as I do! I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, starting by learning their pet’s established routine to ensure they feel comfy and happy. I gather all the important info — like vet contacts, emergency numbers, and where cleaning supplies live (just in case!). I’m a tidy sitter too: I take out the trash and scoop up any yard “presents” to keep things fresh. Most importantly, I listen closely to both owner and pet to discover what makes each furry friend feel safe and loved, then tailor my care to their unique personality.
“Duncan was so well cared for while we were away. So many sitters on Rover are just doing it as a side hustle and it’s hard to find someone to watch a dog with separation anxiety. Kathleen was dedicated to being home with Duncan and giving him lots of snuggles! She’s got a great backyard for play and Duncan had a blast.”
“Ann & her husband were very loving to our dog, and we know he was in great hands while our family had to go out of town! He received a lot of snuggles during his time, and we received a lot of updates. We’re very thankful for their care!”
About: ***drop off and pick up times are between 9 am -2:30 pm or between 5 pm and 10 pm***** as I have zoom meetings in mornings and afternoons ; Rover will not let me put in specific times I do apologize****I have two fur babies of my own! They are spoiled rotten. Their names are Rainy and Stormy . I am well trained in giving oral medications as I had a fur baby that had congestive heart failure for 4 years whom also was a senior dog when he passed at 18 years old. I have taken care of other people’s dogs and cats. Where they are treated like my babies while here as well and get spoiled and lots of attention. I work from home and care for my grandmother so I will home with them at all times. I can administrate pills/medicine if needed. I am able to take the dogs out whenever it is needed. My babies are always by my side like shadows. I have a fenced in yard.My dogs love to play with friends dogs. The more the merrier!
“Anita was great with my pup!! She sent pictures and updates daily - her home is clean and she lives in such a dog friendly neighborhood for multiple walks and fun!! Definitely recommend booking with her!!”
About: 🐴🐍 will care for animals other than dogs/cats🐔🐰 Oh boy where do I start. I’ve always had a passion for animals, whether it’s a dog, cat, bird, insect, frog, snake, you name it. Pets have always been a staple in my house and in my 24 years of living I don’t think I’ve ever been without one. Even one in the home wasn’t enough for me, I worked for a boarding kennel in high-school for two years! I was responsible for walks, food, administering medication, and cleaning up each individual space for the dogs and cats. Recently, I took my own dog to a 10 week training course and learned so much being there. I would be honored to take care of your furry (or not furry) friend! *** DOG BOARDING: -Dogs MUST be potty trained, if your dog cannot hold their bladder for less than 2 hours please reconsider. -Dogs MUST be okay with other dogs and cats. -If your dog NEEDS to be crated PLEASE provide a crate. -Please notify me of any issues including, eating various items, prone to accidents, and aggressiveness (regarding animals, food, or people). I work full time but have 2-3 days work from home! I also have plenty of free time before/after work, on weekends, and during holidays for your pup. Let me know any questions you have! My pup Maze and I love long walks as well as outdoor play. We currently don’t have a fenced in yard but we don’t let that stop us!
“You were amazing with bubbles. You sent pictures and videos of her daily I know she had an amazing time with you and your family. I can’t thank you enough for keeping her ❤️❤️❤️”
“We had such a wonderful experience with our puppy sitter! She took amazing care of our two puppies while we were out of town and treated them like they were her own. She kept us updated, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such loving hands. When we picked them up, they were happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. She even mentioned how sweet and cuddly they were, which made us smile! We are so grateful for the love and attention she gave Benji and Stormi. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable to watch their pets. Thank you again for taking such great care of our babies!”
“I can’t say enough positive things about Keiwana and her family. They took great care of our Coco. Lots of attention and social connection, which was important for us. They provided updates and pictures to reassure us that she was being well taken care of. Very responsive to questions. They maintained a schedule our dog is familiar with. Plenty of walks, time outdoors and adequate feedings. We will definitely board with Keiwana and her family again.”
“Elizabeth was great! She sent plenty of updates during our dog’s stay, which was greatly appreciated and followed all instructions when it came to him. She was also super sweet and her family was just as sweet, we felt very comfortable leaving Meechie with her.”
“From the time I pulled up, my chihuahua was welcomed so cheerfully! Makhayla was wonderful, and stayed in communication with me the entire overnight stay. I loved the pics and video! My dog is my baby, and I do not just leave her with anyone. I will definitely be using Makhayla in the future if she will have Gracie.”
“We are new to the area and we’ve always had friends or family watch our pups. This was the first time we needed to use Rover. Nancy gave us a great first experience and I’m so glad we have someone we can trust to leave our pups with if we ever need to board again! She asked great questions to get to know our pups before us dropping them off and she kept us up to date everyday with plenty of pics and videos. Nancy was very responsive as well. We will certainly be reaching out to her for future needs. Thanks again Nancy!”
“You just can’t get someone more kind, caring and perfect for your dog. Cindy was so good with our dogs Apollo and Jupiter. So many years of rescuing and working with dogs. Her knowledge about their needs and behaviors is priceless. She made them and us feel so comfortable. Thank you Cindy.”
“Corbin and Shar were so great with our dogs! They were very good about sending updates and pictures during their stay. They were also very understanding when one of my dogs was a huge jerk to their dog one day. ? 10/10 recommend!!”

Susan was fantastic! She watched my two senior pups for a week and cared for them like her own. It was such a relief knowing that they were in good care. She administered medicine to one of my boys and sent me daily pictures and updates. I would re-book Susan in a heartbeat and wholeheartedly recommend her.
Susan is amazing!! She sends frequent updates, lots of pictures, and the boys always have fun running around her back yard. Her dogs are fantastic and very friendly, our boys loved having someone else to play with. They had a great time, when they came home, they were calm and happy, kind of like they just got back from the spa. We would recommend here to anybody; she is the best!!!!! We feel very comfortable and happy letting the boys stay with her, she takes great care of them!!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Many sitters in MD ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
