About: I've been an animal lover my whole life. I had my own dog for 11 years, so I know firsthand what it takes to really care for a pet, especially as they get older. Since my dog lived until 14, senior care and keeping up with medication routines is something I'm very comfortable with, as I had to do for my dog in her last years. I've also looked after family friends' dogs and cats over the years including feeding them, taking them out, making sure they're getting enough playtime and attention. It's always felt less like a job and more like just taking care of someone I love. I'll treat your pet the same way! I lost my dog not too long ago, but taking care of others pet is my way of keeping that love going! I’m currently working part-time with a very flexible schedule the majority of the time! I work from home everyday, except Thursdays. I’m most free Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and the weekends. I have a large yard where your dog can run, explore, and play freely. Since I no longer have a dog of my own, my home and attention are completely focused on your pet during their stay. Dogs are welcome indoors and I treat them like family. They won't be left alone for long periods. I follow each pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules and any medications. I send regular photo and text updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was in high school. I have friends and neighbors that rely on me to take care of their pets. I've also taken care of animals other then cats and dogs. I've done rabbits and Guinea pigs. I feed, give baths, give medications and walks. I can currently do this full time. If you ask me to do a 24 hour stay. I am available for that as well. I just need to know at least 4 days ahead of time. My SO travels for work. And I would need to fit my dog into that schedule. Just know I will have other pets to take care while staying at your home. And will not be there 24/7. I will be staying at your house on my breaks and overnight if requested. We do not have a fenced in backyard. But we do take him on several walks a day. Regardless of the weather. He is unbothered by it.

About: I’m an experienced animal caretaker comfortable with pets of all species, ages, temperaments, and care needs. My background includes training challenging dogs, caring for neonatal kittens, mucking stalls, administering IV fluids, raising poultry and small animals, and over 20 years of experience with dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. I’m confident with special-needs pets, unusual animals, and complicated routines—and I’ll care for every animal with patience, attentiveness, and kindness. I work a standard 8 am - 4 pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. I am available to care for boarded animals in the morning before I leave and in the evenings when I return from work in those days, with the same diligence and love I give my own animals. For all other days, I am either off or working from home and I am generally available to provide care. If I am visiting your home, I would like to have a meet and greet with you and your animals before you head out of town to establish their normal schedules and routines. During appointments, I will give your animals the same love and care that I give my own. If you are scheduling to have an animal boarded, your animal(s) will be given their own room separate from other animals in the house, with direct access to a large, fenced-in yard, their own beds and towels, and constant access to water. Walks, treats, meals, and medications will be given on an agreed upon schedule. Potty breaks will occur no less than once in the morning, once before and after dinner, and once before bedtime. I do not accept outside bedding and all guests must be up to date on vaccines and treated for fleas and ticks prior to boarding.

About: Hey there! I'm Ambrosia! You can call me Amber. I've been caring for pets for as long as I've been caring for babies. See it goes hand in hand. Every baby that I've nannied usually has a furry frind with them. The fur baby came first then the actually baby. When caring for the baby I often took a liking to the furry friend too. That meant playing and feeding the dog whenever I wasn't taking care of the baby. Often times I would let the dog out to do his buisness. When the child got older and we went on walks the dog of couse came too. As a former athlete and someone who lives an active lifestyle, I love going on walks and runs. So if your dog is a runner that's no problem for me; just let me know. Just like kids, I can understand the fustration when a pet does not listen. Being a nanny helped me to gain a lot of patience, so if your pup isn't a good listener it's ok! Ms. Amber has the time to wait it out. On the other side of that we all love a little reward so don't be shy to let me know if you have a reward system for your pet. I love dogs yound and old! As caregiver I strive to give your pet the best experience while they are in my care. I look forward to meeting and tking care of your furry friend! As I am not working a traditinal job right now, my schedule is pretty flexiable. Pet care can fit into my daily routine around your pets needs. Whether that be for an early morning walk or a a mid day pop in for cuddles and play, I can be the sitter you rely on. When caring for your fur baby in your home, I strive to keep a clean and safe enviorment for your pet and myself. Any mess that might have been made while caring for your pet will be cleaned up. I want your pet to have the best experience with me and whatever malkes them comfortable with me I'll do. I understand that we all need time to warm up to eachother. I keep a calm attitude and love to givethe equal amout of space and cuddles.

About: I grew up with multiple pets, including two cats in my childhood and a wonderful dog that I helped care for in her seniority, so I've been familiar with animals all my life. Currently, I own and aided in training a high-maintenance, special needs German Shepherd. He's a sweetheart, but he's definitely a commitment! Given his intensely anxious nature, he needs a patient hand to calm him often. He's also epileptic, so I am well practiced in attentiveness, administering medication, following specialized meal plans and the like if needed. I have also done pet and house sitting on many occasions, particularly for family and friends but for a wide variety of pets– from little dogs that didn't even reach my knee, to my own Shepherd, who stands just about as tall as my hip. I've house kept for up to a week, entertaining young dogs and going on daily walks, etc. I am always happy to be introduced to new little ones and have a high pain tolerance when it comes to their claws, so I don't mind when they get a bit rowdy, either! High energy or low, I will gladly make time for any fluffy friends who need a watchful eye. I am currently on track to earn a Bachelor's in the Arts from Towson University, which is about a 50 minute commute from my home. With this in mind, my current class schedule entails that Towson days are essentially unavailable; however, the rest of the week, I'm generally left plenty of room to take on pet care! Life is always busy, and while sometimes I wind up with too many commitments to do it regularly, I'll always make time for it when I can. Though my own home may not be an ideal place for another pet to spend nights due to my Shepherd's nervousness, I will gladly offer my time to visit others. I have previously found myself curled up on a couch with a pet I was taking care of overnight, or even falling asleep on the floor with them. So long as their pet parents are happy for me to do so, I will gladly stay wherever is most comfortable for the pet involved, and take food/water/sleeping arrangements where they are best suited. I also have a fair sense of direction, so I'm perfectly content on walks in unfamiliar places, especially when I have friendly doggos with me!

About: Hello! My name is Kimberly. Over my lifetime I’ve had 4 dogs (Doberman, 2 Shih Zu's/Havanese, Pit bull and a Yorkie) a rabbit, cat, frog, and several goldfish. You name it, I've had it ;). I have a passion for animals so what better way to show my passion than by taking great care of them! I offer daycare, overnight stay, walking and more. I have a huge fenced in backyard for your pet to enjoy as well as plenty of space in my home. Let your pet become a part of our family. I've occasionally board up to 5 small dogs at once. I carefully match their personalities, supervise all interactions and make sure each dog has separate rest areas so everyone feels safe and comfortable. We are kind hearted compassionate family excited to meet your pet. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine. Every day begins with morning walks or playtime in the backyard, followed by meals and rest. Throughout the day, I provide multiple opportunities for exercise, mental stimulation, and one-on-one attention. Depending on your pet’s needs, I include walks, grooming, training, and fun activities like fetch or tug-of-war. Evenings are calm and relaxing, with time for cuddles and winding down before bedtime. I stay flexible to accommodate your pet’s unique schedule, ensuring they feel comfortable, happy, and well-cared-for every day. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. In my home, pets are always supervised, with secure fencing in the backyard and safe spaces indoors where they can relax or play. I make sure all toys, treats, and equipment are pet-friendly and cleaned regularly. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely—feeding schedules, medications, and any special needs—while keeping your home safe and tidy. I always respect your property and your pet’s comfort, ensuring they feel secure and loved. I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners. I provide regular updates, photos, or messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, healthy, and safe while in my care.

About: I have had many dogs in my life time and I enjoy walking, talking to, caring for and spending time with dogs when I can. I miss my pets but I am not ready to get one of my own. However, I would love to help you care for your pet when you are gone. I am a teacher during the school year. I usually can help you out on the weekend or nights during the school year. During the summer I can help more often in a variety of days and times. My fur babies have all past. When I have helped friends and family take care of their pets I make sure to get to know their fur baby before they need me to care for them. I learn their pet's routines and I try to spend some time with them so they know my sent. This makes it more comfortable for the owner and pet when I am with them.

Cheryl took care of out high maintenance pup, Gus, for a few hours today for the first time. They were fast friends! Gus is still working on not freaking out when left alone and he showed no signs of stress when left with Cheryl. Cheryl was great about understanding Gus's ways (and rules) and engaging with him. He was happy and calm when we returned (and tired as a bonus!). We plan on booking Cheryl whenever we need to be away.

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 Pet Sitting - Reisterstown

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Reisterstown is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 6,590 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Reisterstown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

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 .

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 , 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 Reisterstown. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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 sitter.
