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.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with a genuine passion for caring for animals. I grew up loving our family Weimaraner named Shadow and later owned a sassy Morkie named Ace, who brought so much personality and joy into my life. While I don’t have a dog of my own right now, I truly miss that companionship and love being able to share that care with other dogs. I work in healthcare, so being attentive, responsible, and safety-focused comes naturally to me; these skills and qualities I will bring to every pet and family encounter. I have spent my career working with children so I am naturally a very calm and patient person. I look forward to meeting your family and fur bestie! As a working mom, I’m available on evenings and weekends, and I’m committed to making sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog like family making sure to providing updates, attention, and lots of love every step of the way. I will make sure my care is tailored to your fur bestie’s needs and their routine.

Emily did a terrific job for us. She was punctual, diligent and, most importantly, very kind to our pets. One of our cats is diabetic and requires shots twice a day. Emily followed all of the instructions for feeding and dosing him and his blood sugar was spot-on when we came home. I cannot say enough good things about Emily. We will gladly hire her again.

I offer drop-in visits, walks, and overnight boarding, always focusing on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy helping them feel safe, cared for, and loved while their people are away. I’ve cared for animals throughout my life, from family pets growing up to paid pet and house sitting for friends and private clients. I’m a longtime yoga teacher, so creating a calm, grounded environment comes naturally to me. Friends, clients, and neighbors have trusted me to care for their dogs, cats, and homes, and I understand how important consistency, communication, and reliability are. Whether your pet loves long walks, quiet companionship, or playful interaction, I’ll care for them with the same attention and respect I’d want for my own family. I’m a part-time yoga teacher with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care for your pets. I carefully plan my schedule around the animals in my care and will always discuss my teaching times with you in advance. My priority is making sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I understand that inviting someone into your home or entrusting them with your beloved pet requires a great deal of trust. I treat every home with respect and every animal with patience, kindness, and attentive care. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, communicate regularly with updates and photos, and will always reach out if I have any questions or concerns. My goal is for you to return home to a happy pet and a well-cared-for home. If boarding is needed, I provide a quiet, calm, smoke free home and accept only one family’s pets at a time so I can give them my full attention. I carefully follow each pet’s established routine and will communicate regularly with updates and photos. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

About: Caring for animals has always come naturally to us, my husband and I have had pets (dogs, cats, hamsters, birds) all our lives — our last adoption of two bonded, senior rescues in 2017 was truly life-changing. Eddie, a gentle yet protective lab mix, and Willie, a spirited and stocky, dachshund mix, helped teach our daughter what unconditional love fully looks like, while reminding our family the special bonds that come from the gift of furry family members. We had seven amazing years with them! Since then we've become our neighborhood's pet sitters for dog's and cats alike - enjoying missed pet cuddles, while support friends who need to be away for a bit. An aspect that really helped us was working with the wonderful trainers at DogWorks in Baltimore, when our good-boys first arrived. It vastly helped them adjust, and gave us the awareness to become more responsive, respectful, and emotionally present caretakers. We still feel care taking starts with listening~ to instructions, but also to pet’s body language, rhythm, and preferences. We’ve cared for senior dogs who needed patience and understanding while they learned to trust again, puppies who have unlimited energy and child-like needs, as well as pets with medical and emotional needs. Now that we're pet empty-nesters, and experience and trust with friends and family's pets, we wanted to open our home to support a broader range of family's who could use one-on-one care like we did. We have a fully fenced in quarter-acre back yard, a pet-friendly house, and a seven year old daughter who wants to be a Vet when she grows up :). I’m currently working a hybrid schedule, while my husband, Bobby, is fully remote working at home. (Even when we're in a meeting we've even left the Pet Channel or the cartoon Bluey (since its produced only in colors dogs can see!) streaming for additional comfort ;) It's rewarding to have flexible schedule ensuring pets are rarely (if ever) be left alone. Weekends and holidays are available too, especially if you know if advance for time to plan ahead, please just ask :) We treat every pet as if they were our own!~ Safe Environment: Our home is smoke-free, pet-proofed, and has a securely fenced yard. Health & Comfort: We follow your instructions exactly, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or training routines. Supervision: We never leave visiting pets outside unattended. Updates: Expect photo and message updates so you know your furry friend is happy and safe.

About: My name is Viviana I am 23 years old and I’m currently living at home! I have two beautiful huskies and unfortunately it is too hot during the summer to bring them on my hikes. I love to explore nature in the area and often hike on trials with streams, creeks, and beaches. I also enjoy walking around town and in parks! If you’re looking for a sitter to walk your dog on short calm walks daily or a sitter to walk your dog on long adventurous walks I’m available! I have a very flexible schedule and am often off most afternoons, but I usually am unavailable in the mornings. I also have a free roam bunny so if you ever need a pet sitter for a bunny or any other small animal I have a lot of experience! I also have experience with cats!

About: Hi there! 👋 After taking a two-year break to settle into a new area about an hour away, I’m excited to be reactivating my Rover profile! During that time, my family and I went through some changes — we said goodbye to our two beloved dogs and recently welcomed a playful new puppy who’s now 6 months old. I’m looking forward to socializing him while providing loving, reliable care for other families’ pets - whether you need help with walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or anything in between. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet and care for your pups. Let’s chat and see how I can help make your days a little easier and your pets a lot happier! I am a stay at home mom and dog mom with a lot of mouths to feed! I am on Rover for not only an income but because I am readily available most days! We would love the opportunity to snuggle your fur babies :) I care for your animals as if they are my own. Love and plenty of play time if that’s what they are into. If they want to be a potato we have plenty of couches!

About: I am a local environmental science student with extensive experience in professional pet and house sitting. Having grown up with dogs and cats, I have provided dependable care for repeat clients since the age of 12. I would welcome the opportunity to care for your animals and can provide references upon request. I am a local college student with a flexible schedule, allowing me to commit to various shifts. I am generally available to work during evenings and on weekends. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my availability aligns with your current needs. Caring for my own two dogs led me to discover a passion for working with animals, and I am now seeking opportunities to gain professional experience as I pursue a career in this field. To ensure both you and your pets are comfortable, I typically offer a pre-visit to meet in person. This allows us to discuss your specific care instructions and ensures you are confident in my services as a caretaker.

Bronte is amazing. Had a last minute need to watch our 2 labs and new puppy. She was so responsive, punctual, and most importantly caring! She loved on our puppers, gave them lots of treats and exercise, and everyone was sad she had to leave! Highly recommend for professionalism and care!

She shared insightful updates and pictures each drop in visit and there was a huge jump from the first drop in visit to the last one; you can see how comfortable and happy Jola was starting to get with her through the photos! And that speaks volumes to how great she is at caring for our little loved ones! Jessica is most def my first choice for drop in visits in the future if she’s available 🙏🏾 10/10 recommend

Jason met my sweet girl at the end of her life. I was having surgery and my Giant Schnauzer couldn’t stand on her own. A vet had suggested Rover to me, and I picked Jason because of the number of satisfied customers (and because he looked strong enough to lift my dog by her “”Help ‘ em Up” harness). I am glad I did. I will keep his information for the next time I adopt a pup. He is caring and compassionate, and I am grateful for the loving care he showed my Jessie.

We had a great experience with our sitter! Despite inclement snow weather, she was dependable and showed up as scheduled, which we truly appreciated. She followed all of our instructions carefully and took excellent care of both of our dogs. It was such a relief knowing they were in reliable hands. The best part of my day was receiving the videos and photos. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to others. This was my first time using this service and she walked me through it as well.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Reisterstown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Reisterstown on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 6,571 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Reisterstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 Reisterstown 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Reisterstown choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Reisterstown with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Reisterstown. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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.

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.
