About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 11 years old, and I’m comfortable with cats and dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. People have called me a “pet whisperer” because I have a calm, patient way of connecting with animals and earning their trust. I’m also physically strong and confident handling large, powerful, and energetic dogs, including dogs who need firm leash control, longer walks, structure, and plenty of activity. Safety, patience, and clear communication are always my priorities. In addition to the Rover Guarantee, I carry my own premium Pet Care/Liability Insurance for your peace of mind. I’m available 7 days a week and have a flexible schedule throughout the day. I can help with morning, afternoon, evening, and late-night care depending on your pet’s needs. Whether you need regular visits, last-minute help, walks, drop-ins, or extended care, I’m happy to work with your schedule whenever possible. I follow each client’s instructions closely and do my best to keep every pet’s routine consistent. I know every animal has their own personality and comfort level, so I take a patient, respectful approach to care. If your pet wants playtime, attention, or companionship, I’m happy to give that. If they are shy, anxious, independent, or simply prefer space, I’m just as comfortable keeping them company from a calm and safe distance. My goal is always to help your pet feel secure, respected, and well cared for.
“Riley was great!! I recommend her to help you with your pet needs! She was great with feeding and medication administration and everything else with my Schweet babe needed!”
“Jason was very punctual and responsible with taking care of our two cats. He always sent us pictures and this was reassuring as we were so far away! We will definitely be using Jason again!”
“I can't say enough good things about Aye! She kept us updated with detailed notes and sent lots of adorable pictures of our cats. It was great to see how happy they were, especially our shy one who really warmed up to her. Aye’s patience and care made all the difference. Highly recommend her to anyone needing a fantastic cat sitter!”
“Ryan is fantastic, and I highly recommend him. He came over for a meet in-advance, and said/did a lot to help us feel confident in hiring him. He was prompt, clearly loved our dog, played with her a lot, and took great pics (it helps that we have a gorgeous dog).”
“Cheryl was an incredible help with a last minute drop-in. She followed all of our instructions carefully and made sure our two small dogs were well cared for. Her prompt responses and photo updates were such a reassuring bonus. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 5 years old and have grown up with both bunnies, cats and dogs of all sizes, giving me over 13 years of hands on experience. Throughout the years, I’ve helped with feeding, walking, playtime, grooming, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, so I’m committed to following your instructions and providing patient, dependable, and loving care. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply giving your pet companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love, attention, and respect that I give my own pets. I am currently working part time so I am available early morning and afternoons up until 3/4/5pm during the weekdays and weekends. Pet care has been a part of my daily life since I was a child. I currently care for my own cats every day by feeding them, cleaning their litter boxes, playing with them, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. I also have experience caring for dogs, including walks, exercise, feeding, and companionship. I work part-time in the evenings, which leaves my mornings and afternoons available for pet care. When house sitting, I’ll make sure your pet’s routine is followed closely and that they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine and follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed and instructed), playtime, and any special requests. I prioritize your pet’s safety by keeping a close eye on them during walks and outdoor time, making sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I also understand the importance of respecting your home, keeping it clean, and providing regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel happy and cared for in the environment they’re most comfortable in their own home.
“Tracie, thank you so much! We came home to a neat and clean home and you took such good care of Jinx. Thank you for going above and beyond! I hope we can rely on your again in the future!”
“I recently went out of town for a week, and as always, Emma did a fantastic job with my cat Lilo. Li can be a little shy, but Emma has been great at making her feel comfortable and helping her come out of her shell. Thanks Emma!”
About: I’ve spent eleven years as a go-to pet sitter for friends, family, and local clients. Whether it’s daily walks, or keeping up with feeding routines, I bring patience and enthusiasm to every job. I love making sure pets are content and stress-free while their owners are away. I work weekdays, so I’m available to pet sit in the evenings, on weekends, or on my days off, usually about twice a month on average I’m a careful and attentive pet sitter, always respecting each pet’s unique needs during walks and home visits. With confidence in caring for all types of animals, I ensure every pet feels safe and loved.
“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!”
“Samantha did a great job with my old buddy. She provided pictures while I was away and took care of issues that came up. She was really good with Sanford. I returned home and he was very relaxed and chilled. I would definitely use her services again.”
About: I’m taking a break from work to pass an exam. I now have all day availability and I adore dogs! I have grown up with dogs my entire life and now I have two of my own! I’ve helped out with Lab Rescue and I’m currently looking to help out with BARCS. I love dogs so much and I will treat them as part of my family! I have all day availability 8am through 10 pm. I’m very flexible and willing to work together to do what I can to make anything work! I will follow anything asked! If there are specific harnesses used, your dog is muzzle trained, etc.. I am willing to learn whatever I need to to keep your pet and everyone safe.
About: As a proud owner of 3 dogs and a cat, I will strive to make your pet feel like my own. Loved, cherished, and lots of belly rubs. Right now my only priority is to focus on my upcoming school year! Besides that I am free on weekdays and weekends. Day and night! I care for my dogs in my home by providing them with the enrichment they need. Whether that is playing tug of war or treat hide and seek!
“Margaret was wonderful! She visited us to meet Riley and learn her routine before we officially booked her. She kept us up-to-date on her visits and I could tell Riley took to her so easily. I felt so comfortable getting away and knowing our pup was happy and taken care of. I will definitely book Margaret again!”
About: I have always loved dogs and have helped friends and family with dog-sitting whenever needed. I have been a pet parent for over 5 years and am very empathetic to their needs and wants. I currently work 6am-2:30pm Monday-Friday. But I can do walks anytime outside of those hours. As long as you're ok that I wouldn't be there 100% of the time, I'm open to sitting on weekdays as well as weekends. I currently don't have any pets of me own at the moment, but I love to play and cuddle and make sure their needs are covered as well. Please let me know about any specific safety comcerns, so I can make sure I take the best care possible of your furry friend(s).

Maria is a life saver. I have an 18-year-old cat with renal issues that prevent him from using the litter box and require twice-daily medication—managing him takes real dedication and skill. When my in-home sitter canceled at the last minute, Maria stepped in at exactly the right moment. What impressed me most was how she approached the first meeting. She asked thoughtful, analytical questions that made it clear she understood what my cat actually needed. I could tell immediately that her combination of careful attention and genuine love for animals was exactly what I was looking for. I booked her for 10 daily drop-in visits, and she delivered flawlessly. She followed every instruction precisely and problem-solved on her own when needed. What made the experience even better were her daily card comments—her whimsical, fun writing style made me feel like I was right there with her, which kept me calm and connected the whole time. More than that—she's rebuilt my confidence. We'd stopped traveling after his diagnosis last year. Thanks to Maria, I can finally travel again knowing my boy is in genuinely capable, caring hands. I 100% recommend her without hesitation. She's now my go-to person, and I have no doubt she can handle whatever your pet needs.
Jason was fantastic with our dog while we were gone. We were a little nervous since this was the first time we had left someone unknown with our dog and our dog can be a little “weird” in general when we leave him. However, he came downstairs every time Jason came without a problem. We got updates every time Jason came to the house which included pictures. He also independently initiated bringing in our packages and asking if we would like him to take our garbage to the curb. This was a great first experience using Rover and Jason and we will definitely be using him again in the future. Thanks again for everything!
Jessica was amazing from the meet and greet to the last morning of her drop in visits!!! 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
Hannah was fabulous. Because I had a sick kitty, she came over twice to go over his medication so she was comfortable medicating Tribble. Unfortunately, I had to say goodbye to Tribble (Rainbow Bridge) the day before I was to leave on vacation. She was great being flexible and sympathetic. My two remaining babies were well cared for. Hannah followed my "directions" perfectly and sent as many pix of my babies that I wanted. She even took pix of my shy baby under the bed where he was hiding! I would highly recommend Hannah for your pet sitter.
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.

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.
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 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.
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.
