House Sitting Rosaryville

“Ashley was amazing with our two dogs, five cats, and parrot over Christmas! She took amazing care of the whole rambunctious zoo and was incredible with communicating any issues. She even probably saved our pipes from freezing on a cold front! Couldn't recommend her more--100/10!”

“Imani did a wonderful job looking after Tommy and keeping an eye on our home. Kept us abreast of all the happenings and provided images of our pup going about his day.”

“Sanai did a great job taking care of my pup. She was great with my dog and very respectful of my home. She communicated well with me while I was away. I recommend her sitting services. I will also be working with her to walk my pup when I return to in person work.”

“I booked a 10 house-sitting stay with Mika and was overjoyed to see videos of my retriever mix so very happy and comfortable. I could tell my Mila loved the attention she got. My dog is 12yr old this coming July and I wanted someone with experience. Mika's vet assistant background was perfect as well as her history with rescues and special needs pets. My anxiety for such a long stay was quickly eased after the first photos and texts. Mika's upbeat attitude is refreshing. She's totally focused on Mila"s every need. I gladly recommend her. I will certainly book again. Deb”

“Nagela was a lifesaver!! I booked my first dog sitter through Rover.com almost one month before a long trip and, unfortunately, she cancelled days before my trip. Luckily, Nagela popped up as a dog sitter in a last minute, frantic search for someone to watch my dog for ten days (including the July 4th holiday). Nagela was extremely professional and prompt from our very first interaction over Rover.com. I felt at ease within minutes of meeting her. She took great care of my dog and my home for over a week on last minute notice!! I think I've found my go-to dog sitter for any future trips!!”

“Excellent, excellent! Very accommodating and was beyond great with our two dogs. Would definitely recommend and use again!”

“Faith is a fantastic petsitter! We were out of town for 8 days and didn't have to worry about a thing back home. It was wonderful to find a caring person who could spend this much time with our pets. Boarding can be so stressful on our big dogs, but Faith was able to do overnights and wasn't intimidated by our Dobermans in the slightest. She was a perfect fit, and we were so blessed to find her on Rover. It was our first experience with the service platform being new to Southern Maryland, but we will be repeat customers for sure.”

“Michael did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs while we were in DC for the day. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. Peanut and Sweet Pea were happy and relaxed when we got home - we definitely recommend Michaela!”

“First let me say this is my first time ever using rover, I rarely leave my fur baby and usually take him with me, but my resort didn’t allow pets. My usual pet sitter canceled last minute, but Nia was more then willing to accommodate me and my pet on such short notice. Such a wonderful experience I was sooo nervous leaving my fur baby, Nia put all my fears and major anxiety at ease. She followed all my instructions to the T! And even FT and sent so many pics of him. She was polite and professional at all times. Would definitely recommend and will only book with Nia in the future.”

“Dee did a fantastic job house sitting with our cat and dog! She left the house better than when she came and sent lots of pictures. Our pets were clearly well taken care of.”

About: Animals have always been a part of my life! I’ve had both dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and have helped care for family members’ pets when needed. My experience includes caring for puppies who need extra supervision, as well as a senior dog who required medication. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and paying attention to changes in a pet’s behavior and needs. I’m comfortable following your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medication, and daily routines within my experience. I understand that every pet is different, and I want to make sure yours receives attentive, loving care tailored to their needs. I work from home, which gives me flexibility to incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I enjoy having the opportunity to give pets extra attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m organized, dependable, and happy to work with your pet’s existing schedule to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. 🐾 When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their usual routine while their favorite humans are away. I follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, and any special care your pet needs. I believe in providing plenty of love, patience, attention, and companionship while respecting each pet’s unique personality. Whether that means playtime, a walk around the neighborhood, cuddles on the couch, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for. I also love sending photo updates and messages so you can see how your fur baby is doing while you’re away. Your home, your pet’s routine, and your instructions will always be treated with care and respect. ❤️🐾

About: I can adapt to a pet’s mood/temperament and do the upmost to remain mindful of all their needs! I grew up helping my dad raise and breed beagles and I have cared for pets over 20 years whether they were my own or owned by family. I joined in 2024 when I lived in Kansas City, MO but ended up having zero time! So now that I’m back in Maryland, I’m ready to assist pets and their owners! 🩷 I am in school full-time so am mostly available on Friday evenings and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. Very occasionally, I can be available for pet care weekday evenings. I do not board pets as one of my cats is very anxious so I will have to go to client’s home to pet sit. Nevertheless, I will triple check that everything is in place and doors are locked prior to leaving a client’s home. For walking, I will triple check that leashes/harnesses are secure and I do not listen to music so I can be 100% aware of my surroundings and the needs of furbabies.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, caring for a variety of pets and learning early on how important patience, consistency, and love are in pet care. Currently, I have a Shih Tzu that I’ve cared for over the past 8 years, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, grooming needs, and providing long-term, attentive care. I’ve also cared for a young Beagle for over two years, which gave me experience with high-energy dogs that require regular exercise, engagement, and structure. What sets me apart is my genuine connection with animals and my ability to adapt to each pet’s personality and needs. Whether it’s keeping an energetic dog active, maintaining a consistent routine, or providing gentle care for more relaxed or older pets, I make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and any special instructions, treating every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home, which allows me to be present, attentive, and flexible throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins without long gaps, ensuring pets receive consistent care and companionship. Because I’m home most of the time, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet each pet’s needs, whether that means sticking to a strict routine, giving extra attention, or accommodating special care requests. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy being part of my everyday life. I provide attentive, personalized care whether pets are in my home or my client’s home. I focus on maintaining each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable, secure, and stress-free. This includes following feeding schedules, regular walks, playtime, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. In a client’s home, I make sure to respect their space while keeping their pet’s environment clean, calm, and familiar. I also would provide updates, photos, and communication so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. If caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, welcoming environment where they receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection. I’m mindful of each pet’s temperament and needs, whether that means giving energetic dogs lots of activity or providing a relaxed space for more laid-back or senior pets. Above all, I treat every pet like my own by prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times.

“Rachel was spectacular in every way! From my first message, she was communicative, accommodating, and overall very easy to work with. She gave my dog a fantastic week while I was away on vacation and put my mind at ease with regular check ins and photos. She also went above and beyond by leaving my home spotless at the end of the booking. I can't recommend her highly enough!”

About: I've been around dogs since I was six years old, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. Growing up, I helped walk, feed, bathe, and care for dogs of all ages and personalities. I also have experience looking after pets when they're not feeling well, including cleaning up after digestive issues and providing extra patience and attention. I've cared for cats as well, including those with medical conditions, making sure they're comfortable, following care instructions, and giving them the love and attention they need. To me, pets have always been more than animals—they've been like family, almost like my own brothers and sisters. I enjoy spending time playing with them, keeping them active, and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own It gives me the freedom to continue to focus and work in school. I can be around animals which I love and adore. I’m happy. In my home I try to make sure they can go outside as much as possible. The times when I’ve had pets it’s been very important to me to emulate an environment that is similar to what they would find in the wildlife. It’s important to me the pets feel free and happy. Have enough space to stretch out. That they can enjoy their lives as much as I am enjoying them.

“Sereniti is super nice and took the time to come meet our pups before the actual sitting date so they could be familiar with her. You can tell she loves dogs, which was comforting for us. She sent lots of pics of our pups while we were gone too! Will definitely rely on her again next time we go out of town.”

About: For me, caring for animals has never felt like simply “pet sitting.” They are family—and when someone is trusting me with a member of theirs, I take that responsibility to heart. I’ve been caring for pets since I was 13 years old, and today I help care for my family’s lively crew of four dogs and two cats. I’m comfortable with different breeds, personalities, energy levels, and ages—from the young and playful to the older companion who needs a slower pace, a little more patience, and extra tenderness. Senior pets hold an especially meaningful place in my heart. This past September, I said goodbye to Shadow, my Blue Heeler/Pit Bull mix, whom I had loved since he was just three months old. Loving him through his later years gave me a very personal understanding of both the beauty and the weight of caring for an aging pet. I understand the routines, vigilance, patience, and emotional energy that senior pet care can require. I also understand how difficult it can be for their people to step away—even for a weekend—because you worry that someone else won’t notice the little things you notice or care for them with the gentleness they deserve. That is one of the reasons I’m especially interested in supporting families with aging pets. Sometimes loving your pet well also means allowing yourself to rest, travel, celebrate a milestone, or simply take a break knowing they are in caring hands. Whether your pet is energetic and ready to play, independent and particular, or a senior who prefers a quiet companion and an unhurried pace, I meet them where they are. All breeds. All ages. Lots of love. My goal is simple: while you’re away, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, cared for, and loved—and I want you to feel at ease knowing someone is genuinely looking after them. I work from home, with either a daytime schedule of 10 a.m.–6 p.m. or an evening schedule of 4–11 p.m. This allows me to build pet care into my daily routine and make time for meals, bathroom breaks, play, and companionship. Being home is only part of it; paying attention matters just as much. Pets can’t tell us what they need in words, so I take time to notice their habits, body language, and little requests for attention. Whether that means a nudge for a bathroom break, an invitation to play, or wanting someone nearby, I care about learning how your pet communicates. I do have focused work periods, so we’ll discuss your pet’s routine and care needs before booking to make sure my availability is a good fit. This is especially important for older pets who may need more frequent check-ins or a particular schedule. I want to understand what a comfortable day looks like for your pet and how I can help keep it that way while you’re away. I start by learning the little things that matter to your pet: their familiar routines, favorite activities, where they like to rest, and how they let you know they need something. I follow your instructions for meals, walks, bathroom breaks, litter care, and rest, with time for play and affection on their terms. In your home, I keep your pet’s routine as familiar as possible and treat your space with care and respect. I let your pet get comfortable with me at their own pace, whether they’re ready to play right away or prefer a quieter introduction. Senior pets are especially close to my heart. Caring for my dog Shadow through his later years taught me the importance of patience, gentleness, and noticing small changes. I’m happy to move at an older pet’s pace, and we’ll discuss any health, mobility, or supervision needs beforehand so I can be clear about the care I can reliably provide. Before you leave, we’ll confirm care instructions, veterinary and emergency contacts, and your preferences for photos and updates. I want you to feel comfortable sharing the details—even the ones that seem small. They’re part of knowing your pet, and they matter to me, too.

“Alexis contacted me for a last minute booking and she was flexible in working out a schedule to care my Princess. She was there like we agreed on and she send messages and pictures for every visit She also contacted us when Princess didn’t want to take her medication. She will definitely be my sitter from now on”
