“Lauren did an amazing job watching our two dogs, including our senior dog who needs a gentler approach. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated the entire time, which gave us total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals. We’re extremely happy with her service and would absolutely trust her with our pups again! We highly recommend Lauren!”
“Ceinwein did a great job and was available with short notice. Very reliable and experienced with dealing with an elderly dog and giving medication. Will definitely use her services again!”
“Guinevere was fantastic! Great communication, with pictures of my boy playing and being cuddled just like I'd have done. I was worried because I had never left my cat before. Guinevere made sure that she took care of him just as I would and when I got home, my cat was a happy boy! If you're looking for a pet sitter who cares for your fur babies just as you would, Guinevere is the one!”
“Michelle was great! this was my first time using rover and i definitely plan on booking with Michelle in the future. she went above and beyond for my family. my dog tends to not eat when no one is home. Michelle would stay longer than the scheduled visit to encourage her to eat. she also assisted when giving as needed medications, as Mochi tends to get itchy around this time of year and takes a pill to calm the inflammation. this was something i was extremely grateful for and indicates the type of person Michelle is. she sent me updates, assisted with feeding my fish, and sent lots of pictures. i was able to relax while on vacation because i knew Mochi was in good hands.”
“Lindsay is a dependable caregiver. She took care of my dog at the last minute. I loved the pictures she sent too. I will use her again when I need someone responsible to care for my Boba. 🐕”
About: 4 years of experience + 2 happy pups of my own! 🐾 I’ve cared for dogs of friends and family and love making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well taken care of. I’m currently going to school and working my part time job when I can. I am pretty flexible during the week and available throughout the weekends. I treat every pet like they’re my own. In my home, they’ll get lots of attention, playtime, and a cozy, safe space to relax. I have half an acre for pups to run around as well as a walking path across the street. I also have the best yellow lab girl. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or just spending time with them, I make sure they feel loved and cared for.
About: I will match the energy of any pet, I will follow their routine, or help establish one! Count on me to keep your pet safe! I have two doggos at home so of course I have my daily routine of keeping them fed, walked, and most importantly…loved! Properly trained too! Making note of allergies, concerns, and noticing the uncomfortable situations the pet may be in or need help with. Establishing diets and exercise for them.
About: I have spent my entire life growing up with numerous and varied pets, which has given me experience with different animals and their needs. I would love to care for your pet—any breed, size, or personality! My schedule is very flexible, and I would love to discuss scheduling a time that works for you! Please reach out, so we can discuss your needs. I will clarify with you if there are any specific needs or routines that would be followed for your pet. Typically, I would enter and greet your pet (whether with pets or from afar), feed them per instructions, and give them fresh water. For dogs, we will head outside for a walk or exercise in the backyard, and for cats, I would clean their litter box and then play or relax with them. Whether it is a drop-in, overnight stay, or walk, I will make sure your doors and gates are locked!
“Elizabeth was great. First visit with my fur family of a dog and 3 cats. Liz was timely and sent pics, which I always look forward to. She was conscientious and flexible when my old dog didn't want to cooperate. Appreciate the extra effort. Will definitely use Liz again.”
About: Hello! I am an expert dog walker and I also offer check-ins for your pup! I have had a dog in my home since I could crawl and have always loved animals of any age, size and shape! I am a compassionate nurse who wants to earn a little extra money doing something I love and spending time meeting new dogs too! I would love to come meet your pup and walk them around your neighborhood anytime. I will love your pets like my own and I promise we will have a great time no matter what! I can’t wait! I currently work 3 12 hour shifts as a nurse and have 4 days off during the week, so I have plenty of free time! I will walk the pets in your neighborhood or check in on them when needed, but cannot board unfortunately! I will treat your pets like my own and ensure they have everything they need!
About: Hi everyone! I've had dogs since I was a baby. My first dog, Kayla actually taught me how to walk! I absolutely love pups & am hoping to open a sanctuary for senior & disabled dogs one day. For now, I'm hoping to be able to leave my corporate job & take care of your dogs. Absolute dream job💙 My goal is to make your dogs as happy & comfortable as possible. If they're happy, they won't be stressed and neither will you. My family and I keep them busy & entertained. Some of my clients even call my home Camp Anacelia 😂. The atmosphere in my house is very relaxed. Everyone is welcome on the furniture & most of our guest pups sleep on our beds or in one of several dog beds we have throughout the house. Their choice! Have a pup with special needs or need medications administered? No problem! From allergy meds to insulin to diapers, I have years of experience. I also keep puppy pads readily available for our untrained guests. When the weather is good, I like to take the dogs on day trips to parks, events, markets, etc. Let me know if your dog is not a fan of car rides. Communication is key! Tell me what your needs are and we can decide together, if I'm the right sitter for your family. Thank you & I look forward to meeting you & your pup! I work outside of the home during the weekday, but your pups will never be alone as my husband is self employed and loves spending time with them. I like to spend 1 on 1 time with the pups and let them decide if they want to play together or just want to nap on my lap. Meal times are also done on a solo basis to eliminate any chance of mishaps and to decrease stress.
About: Any size animal I can take of if any rules you want to be followed let me know or any training requirements let me know My dream is to own shelter one day I want to take in any animal that need my help. Let my dream come true . My dog gets out to potty every 2 hours and all my animals get feed 3 times a day and my dog gets walked everyday
About: For the past five years, I have provided trusted pet sitting and house sitting services for family members and friends, caring for both dogs and cats of various breeds, sizes, and personalities. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering basic care, administering medication, maintaining routines, providing companionship, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. In addition to caring for others' pets, I am the proud owner of a friendly 5-year-old Golden Retriever, giving me firsthand experience with daily exercise, training reinforcement, grooming, and overall pet wellness. I also grew up in a household with family dogs and cats, which helped foster my lifelong love of animals and understanding of their needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide dependable, attentive, and compassionate care that gives pet parents peace of mind. As of currently, I work full-time so I can do things later in the evenings or on weekends. I however, would like to build and grow my client base to be able to make this more full-time and expand my service hours to truly cater to clients and their needs. I am currently working on fencing in my yard. I have a 5 year old golden retriever named Wrangler that would love some company and would keep your pets busy! I can crate your pet as needed if preferred.
“Sarah did an amazing job watching our cat Ghost. She fed him, gave him meds, changed his litter, and changed his water twice a day. Also, gave plenty of pets and some brushing. We were also given updates on his eating and litter box habits and got plenty of photos. His area was nice and clean and he was a happy boy when we got home. Would 100% recommend!”
“Jessie is a wonderful care taker for my dogs. I have one old boy Rosco and a 5 year old girl Delta. Jessie has watched my dogs and when I can home there were in perfect shape. Sometimes Delta is a little difficult to walk but Jessie handles it with kindness and compassion. Since Rosco is an older dog his bladder is not as good as it once was so I have pee pads out. Jessie replaced them when Rosco had an accident. She came in twice a day at times that were very close to the dogs normal schedule. Based on my experience I'd recommend her. I plan to engage her in the future. You cannot go wrong.”

About: I have been a pet care provider through a private company for 10 years, but my passion for pets started long before that. My first pet experience was with cats, which I have owned and cared for since the age of 5. My first dog was a Belgian Malinois, followed by two yellow labs, which gave me a love for bigger dogs. I raised and trains all of my dogs from puppy to adulthood. However, I have worked extensively with all breeds including pit bulls, chihuahuas, terriers, golden retrievers, and mastiffs, and German Shepards. Therefore, I am very adaptable to all types of dog breeds. My aim is to be as individualized and specialized to each owner and pets needs and expectations. Walking, drop ins, and training 7 days a week. Pet sitting/house sitting: Monday, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday I am unavailable Wednesdays and Thursdays 2:30-10 pm I match how the pets are cared for in each of my clients homes. Again, my aim is to ensure my services are individualized to the client and pets needs. I would want to maintain the same standard of care to ensure maximum comfortability.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Richlandtown
Lauren did an exceptional job walking my dog Ollie while I was traveling. It was his first time with Lauren and immediately decided she was his bestie for the week. Her reports were thoroughly positive and detailed. Lauren will definitely be our first choice for future Josh sits!
Suzanne was 100%+++ AWESOME!!! Our Rosie had just been diagnosed with an Insulinoma (Cancer) and had become much more needy and required morning medications. We have a strong family & Friends group, but with the extra amount of times and extra care needed we needed someone who could come each day early. Suzanne came every morning between 0630-0700 and took care of Rosie and spent time with her to help her through her morning craziness. She gave us fantastic photos and updates that really help calm us when we went away. I 100% recommend using Suzanne for your pet care needs. We will use her again in the future without a doubt.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Richlandtown is $11 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $26 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 5,398 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Richlandtown. 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.

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.
