Pet Sitting Rockville

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life, growing up in a family that always had two dogs. As the eldest, I naturally took on a lot of the responsibility, feeding, walking, bathing, cleaning up, helping with training, and of course giving plenty of love and playtime. Beyond my own pets, I’ve also cared for neighbors’ dogs and cats, always making sure to follow their instructions carefully so each pet feels comfortable and cared for just the way their family would want.😊 Working from home gives me the flexibility to be fully present for your pets throughout the day. I naturally take breaks often, which I love to spend playing, walking, or giving them attention so they feel happy and cared for. Since I can bring my work with me, I’m also able to stay in your home as long as needed; making sure your pets have company, comfort, and consistent care without ever feeling alone. When I care for pets in their own home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their familiar space. I follow your routines closely so everything feels consistent for them. Since I work from home, I can spend plenty of time with your pets, giving them attention throughout the day. My goal is to treat them like family and make sure they’re happy, relaxed, and never feel alone.

“Emmy was quick to respond to my requests and was so sweet! She showed up on time and got along with our GSP Pepper so well! We will definitely be using her again! This was my first time using Rover and I was impressed with how easy it was to get started.”

“Corrine was amazing! This was our first time away from the cats and having someone check in on them made us feel so much better. Corrine took care of litter boxes, feedings, and playtime. We could tell they were in good spirits and had been well taken care of upon our return!”

About: I truly love animals and care for every pet like they’re my own. I’m patient, dependable, and always try to make pets feel comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to adjust to each pet’s personality and routine. I also love sending photo updates so owners can feel at ease. Spending time with animals is honestly one of the best parts of my day. I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy making time for walks, playtime, cuddles, feedings, and check-ins throughout the week. Caring for pets feels natural to me, and I love making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet and home with care and respect, always following your instructions closely to keep your pet safe and comfortable. I pay attention to routines, keep things clean and consistent, and make sure your pet feels calm, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I also send regular updates so you always know how things are going.

About: Hi there! I have 7 years of pet sitting experience along with taking care of my own animals throughout my life. I have the most experience with dogs, cats, and birds (though I’m no stranger to farm animals). I love being outdoors and staying active, so I’m always happy to go on walks, play outside, and keep pets engaged and comfortable. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and I always do my best to ensure that they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I work Monday-Thursday 7-5 which means that I am available before and after work and have open days Friday-Sunday. In some cases I’m able to be available during lunch time depending on the proximity of the pet to my workplace. I have a fenced in backyard and live right next to a track for plenty of running/walking time for your pet. I try to stick to the routine of the pet that I’m taking care of so that they aren’t experiencing too much change while their owner is away!

“Shes great, consistent and my babies love her”

Ana P.

“We felt completely comfortable when we were away. The animals loved Natasha and her daughter. So nice to find someone you can trust with your fur babies.”

Christina J.

“Everything from the meet and greet to the drop in visits were well communicated and she was so nice. I felt so comfortable my whole visit away and got the best updates and pictures. Will use again. Thank you!”

Jessica M.

“Sophia is wonderful! She is so reliable and great with my two dogs. She has excellent communication and on multiple occasions has been more than willing to help me out when I’m in a pinch. I trust my dogs with her and would recommend her to anybody else looking for somebody to care for their dogs.”

“Alexa did an amazing job. My dog has terrible separation anxiety and she took great care of him!!!”

Jodi S.

“This was our first time using Rover. Riley was helpful in explaining how it worked. She watched our cat for several visits for two days. For each visit she sent information on how the visit went. Unfortunately our kitty would run and hide after greeting her so she couldn’t get many pictures. She even went and found him and sat trying to convince him to come out! He ate well during her visits and she was kind to clean up the dirty cat bowls each time! It’s also very comforting knowing Riley has experience working in a vet clinic.”

Cathie S.

“Alexandra was great! Clear communication and thorough care. Glad we found her, looking forward to having her check in on our fur babies in the future.”

Katherine I.

“Kate was so amazing with our two pets! Can’t recommend her enough! :)”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, growing up in a home with multiple pups of all sizes. From feeding and bathing to long walks and playtime, I’ve always been hands-on in making sure they’re happy and well cared for. In addition to dogs, I’ve also raised birds, turtles, and fish, so I’m comfortable caring for a variety of animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always aim to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I currently work from home so I’m able to provide physical comfort and stimulation via petting and playing with toys. We also have a dog park where I can take your pet for off leash running around and fetching. I have experience providing oral medicine for dogs. I allow dogs on furniture and free roaming in the house, but if you have a crate and wish to bring it just let me know. Please provide any instructions on feeding schedule or items.

About: I'm a dedicated pet sitter with over 8 years of pet care experience. I've worked professionally at a dog daycare for 2 years and have volunteered with animal shelters for the past 4 years, where I helped train dogs and worked with pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I am Pet First Aid certified through the American Red Cross and experienced in administering medications when needed. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a senior dog, or a nervous rescue, I strive to provide patient, attentive care tailored to their individual needs. I offer drop-in visits and dog walking, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand how important communication is while you're away, so I provide regular updates and photos to help you feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. I have a flexible schedule and am available most days of the week for drop-in visits and dog walks. I respond promptly to booking requests, typically within an hour, and do my best to accommodate each pet's needs and routine. Availability may vary slightly based on my work schedule, but I keep my calendar updated and encourage owners to reach out with any questions about specific dates. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and providing a safe, comfortable environment. I carefully follow feeding, exercise, medication, and care instructions while ensuring pets receive plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection. With 8 years of pet-sitting experience, 2 years of professional dog daycare experience, 4 years volunteering with animal shelters, and Pet First Aid certification through the American Red Cross, I am comfortable caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“We love using Mary. We trust her and she just knows what to do. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone to take care of your pets and also have peace in mind.”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with them and can't imagine life without them. Twice a week I volunteer at a local dog rescue, which keeps me sharp on handling dogs of all ages, temperments, and needs. I also share my home with cats, so I understand feline routines and personalities just as well as I do dogs. From playful puppies and kittens to gentle seniors who need a little extra patience, I am able to offer an energetic walk or a calm, reassuring visit to your pet's day. I bring genuine love, attentiveness, and real hands-on experience to every walk and drop-in. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I have a consistent schedule and enjoy planning my days around the pets I am caring for. I volunteer at a dog rescue on Monday and Friday mornings and have a few standing commitments on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings. Outside of those times, I have a flexible schedule and am committed to maintaining each pet's individual or household routines. I am very reliable, thrive with structure, and always make sure the pets in my care receive the attention and consistency they deserve. I believe pets thrive with a consistent routine and am able to follow instructions closely for feeding, litter box cleaning, walks, medications, brushing, and any other custom and daily care. I also pay close attention to each pet's behavior and body language so I am able to recognize when something seems out of character or when they need a different approach, committing to always notify the owner for follow up. I never force interactions or activities- for example, if a dog is not interested in a walk, I will adjust and find an alternative way to keep them engaged and comfortable. Above all, I prioritize a clean, safe, and low-stress environment where both cats and dogs feel secure and well cared for.
