“Taylor is fantastic. She is very personable, and she is gentle and loving with my dog Duke. I contacted her the morning of and she was able to come take care of my dog that same day with little notice. My dog has stomach issues sometimes, and she even helped with cleanup when he had an accident in the house, on top of feeding him and taking him for a nice walk in the park. Duke and I are very happy that we found Taylor 💙”
“Ella checked all of the boxes of a good walk with my puppy- great communication, on time, far walk, and cute pics. Will definitely be requesting her for future walks!”
“We loved our first experience with Rover, Elinor, and Spencer! They were able to come over before to meet Ollie and make sure it was a good fit. They were trustworthy and timely. I will absolutely be using them again.”
About: I am a young-professional living in Baltimore and ready to care for your pet(s)! I have a black cat of my own who I spend most of my time with, but love all animals. I have fostered cats and dogs with my family since I was in high school, grew up with a dog, and have cared for friends and family pets regularly. I work from home a majority of the time so my schedule is flexible and I can make it work for you and love your pets like my own. I am excited to walk your dog, play string with your cat, and ensure they are well-cared for while you're out. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Happy to check in mid-day during your 9-5 and on weekends! I aim to spend time with your pet and make sure they are comfortable and taken care of. I have my own cat and she has made it clear she is happy as an only-child, so I can't have other pets in my own house. But I am happy to come to you! I will make sure they have the food, water, toys, and pets they need until you're back. I know it can be stressful to leave your pet at home, so I will make sure they are safe and happy.
About: I have over 13 years of experience caring for my own dog, which was a huge part of my life. While I'm not quite ready for another pup of my own, I'd love to get my dog fix by taking care of yours! I'm a registered nurse and work three days a week, which gives me flexible availability for dog walking and pet sitting on my days off. I work three days a week, so I have four days open to spend time with your dogs! Can also provide walks before and/or after my shifts. I live in a very walkable area, with several parks close by. I provide attentive care and always prioritize safety. I currently have no pets of my own, so my care would be one-on-one.
“Kathleen was wonderful! Very communicative and easy to work with. Ozzie loved walking with her and we’re grateful for the extra helping hand when traveling for work.”
About: I have about 15 years of combined experience training and raising dogs along with many weekends spent caring for friends and families dogs. I have experience with dogs ranging from 12 up to about 80 pounds. As much as I love my cat, I miss going for walks and playing in the park with a Dog. I currently work from home in South Baltimore with a flexible work schedule to help accommodate your needs. Most weekends are spent in and around the city so I can be available for weekend walks as needed. I currently have a small black cat that receives maybe the most comfortable lifestyle I can imagine. I have grown up with animals my whole life and their safety is my number one priority.
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for both senior dogs and young pets. I’m comfortable with senior care, medications, and slower routines, and I’ve also helped care for puppies and kittens while pet sitting for friends. With experience in multi-pet homes, I know how to adapt to different personalities and make every pet feel safe and loved. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I’m currently applying for jobs and do not have a set work schedule, which allows me to offer full-time care, flexible availability, and plenty of attention for each pet. I’m able to adjust my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs to make sure pets are well cared for and comfortable. I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on their normal schedule, fresh water, walks or playtime, litter box cleaning, and lots of attention and affection. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel safe in their familiar environment while keeping the space clean and tidy. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs and provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.
“Amazing job taking care of my little buddy! I am Definitely going to use his services again even the time to give my dog some extra water when his bowl was empty. I came home and my dog was happy..”
“Amanda was gracious enough to agree to our day-notice request to walk our old lady lab at night in below freezing temps. Grateful to come home to a happy, tired dog after a long day at work. Thank you!!!”
Riverside dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sadie loved her walk with Kathleen, and I am so appreciative to have had Kathleen to care for Sadie while I was away! Kathleen was reliable and even took some extra time after the walk to make sure Sadie’s paws were wiped from the salt & ice outside. I know Sadie will be excited to see Kathleen again soon!
I would absolutely recommend Jasmine, and if I were still in the area, would definitely still be booking with Jasmine! Jasmine was always quick to respond; was willing to meet my dog in-person beforehand, and was very knowledgeable. I have a very reactive dog (to other dogs), and Jasmine was comfortable walking her, and asked a lot of questions about her personality and needs, which was very helpful and reassuring. I know my dog will miss her time walking with Jasmine!
Taylor is such an incredible animal caregiver! She took such good care of my newly rescued Coco, and has been helping with Coco’s leash skills as well. I highly recommend Taylor for all of your pet care needs! She truly cares about animals and the way she cares for them shows that.
Kristine did an amazing job with my babies!! She was punctual. Communicated amazingly and was able to follow all my very detailed instructions making. I had a quite a few security measures and she followed vetting perfectly making me feel like my dogs and home were safe while I was way in Cancun for 5 days. The babies loved her. I even got a little jealous watching my Roxy cry on the camera after their time together. I will 1000% recommend Kristine and will be using her in the future for dog sitting/walking needs!
Serkalem was easy to work with, and I really appreciated the time she spent getting to know my dog before walking her. She asked thoughtful questions, did an in-person visit before the first walk, and seemed very knowledgeable. I have a reactive dog, so it can be hard to find people who are willing and able to walk her, and Serkalem was very understanding of this and willing to work with her.
Evelyn had been walking my dog since October, twice a week. She is great. Evelyn is really good with him! He can be apprehensive about strangers- she was patient and kind during their initial meetings. Evelyn communicates well and is reasonably flexible with our schedule - if something comes up. Highly recommend!
