About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for several years, including my own pets and of friends. I’m comfortable with active cats and dogs, feeding routines, and handling different behaviors. I pay close attention to safety, keep pets engaged with play and walks, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I offer drop-in visits for cats in their own home, so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m flexible with scheduling and can visit once or multiple times per day depending on your pet’s needs. I can help with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and check-ins to make sure everything is okay while you’re away. I respect your pet’s routine, and I make sure everything is clean, safe, and stress-free during each visit. I have two cats of my own, so I understand their behavior and needs very well. I pay attention to details, follow instructions carefully, and make sure your cat feels comfortable, cared for, and not lonely. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos after each visit.
About: I’ve had dogs and have been taking care of family and friends dogs and cats for over 10 years. My family has had healthy dogs and dogs that have had medical issues over the years, and so I’m knowledgeable in looking after a dog who has undergone surgery, or who requires special care due to paralyzation. I love all animals and friends have relied on me to house sit their dogs while they go away on trips or vacations for multiple days at a time, sometimes with more than one dog at a time, or additional pets as well, so I’m very experienced in addressing each animals needs, while also sending “daily nanny cam” updates to family and friends so they can see their pets during the day and know that they’re happy and doing well. I work full time, but work from home two out of the five days, so I would be able to take your dog on multiple walks during the day, come over and stay with them for a few hours to play, or even house sit them for the day or several days if you’re going away for a trip. If they require special medication I just ask that you leave me their vitamin/mediation schedule and will administer based on your instructions. My family dog loves to cuddle with me in my lap and when she’s not allowed on the furniture, I’ll often sit on the floor with her so that she can snuggle with me. On the days that I work from home, I would be happy to stay at your home with your pets making sure their needs are met. I love my family pets and will give your pets the same love and affection that I give mine. My animals are allowed to snuggle with me on the couch or on the bed (unless you don’t want them on the furniture/ there are behavioral issues I need to be aware of, I would have them do the same thing). I walk my family dog in the afternoons and play with her throughout the day with dog toys and fetch, but will monitor if it looks like the toy is coming apart and could pose a risk to them. I would follow all instructions left when it comes to house sitting/walks/or day sitting, and would ask for you to share any behavioral issues or triggers with me in advance so I care be aware of them prior to taking your pets out on walks or just in day to day interactions. This allows me to be aware for your pets safety and the safety of any other animals we could come around. If a dog doesn’t seem friendly while we’re on a walk, I would remove your dog from that situation to try and keep them as safe as possible. I will also always reach out to contact you if there are any issues or questions I have about daily activities, medications, etc. When I dog sit at someone’s home, I recognize that I am really there just to look after their pet, so I don’t leave the house for extended periods of time and will actually put on animal shows for the pets to watch, including planet earth, or Disney pet movies. I also like to send updates that I called “nanny cams”, which are photos or videos of your pet playing or just hanging about so that you can have peace of mind that they’re happy and you can also see them while you’re away and receive updates. I will always communicate with you very openly to ensure you have peace of mind while I’m taking care of your pet.

About: I have been house sitting animals for about a year now in my home town. I have house sat all different size dogs and cats and have even done week long house sitting for the animals. I just recently moved to college and stopped dog sitting but I am ready to continue doing what I love! I am currently a full time college student at Salisbury University. I am done my classes everyday after 12pm and am available anytime on the weekends. I can't wait to spend quality time with your fur babies. I plan to give them my full attention, make sure they are well fed, well exercised, and overall well taken care of when they're in my possession:)
“Jennifer was great! Very responsible and caring. Our kitty is usually shy, but took right to her. We don’t travel much, but we definitely would love to have her again! Thanks, Jen!”


“Heather is very attentive and makes sure that she gives clear solid photos of your furry friends. She is very helpful and makes sure all of your animals needs are met. Very reliable. Please book her! She's such a wonderful support to animal care.”

About: I love to love on animals! I make sure they are well lover and cared for while you are gone! And make sure they get everything they need. It distracts me from life and makes me happy! And most days I can do in the afternoon morning whenever is good for you and your family! Have a leash on them and keep a good eye on them at all times! Go outside when they go outside so you can watch them!
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started working in the pet grooming industry when I was just 11, and since then I’ve poured my heart into caring for dogs and cats of every age, size, and personality. I’ve raised entire litters of puppies alongside their mamas, comforted seniors in their golden years, and welcomed countless pets into my home for boarding and love. Whether it’s an energetic walk, a gentle brushing, or simply being a reassuring presence, I make it my mission to give every animal the same patience, safety, and affection I give my own. To me, pets are family—and I care for them with all the devotion that word deserves. Outside of pet care, I work a steady schedule—Monday through Thursday evenings from 4–10pm and Saturday mornings from 7am–12pm. That means I’m available most mornings, afternoons, and weekends to give your pets plenty of love, attention, and care. I like to be upfront so you’ll always know when I’m free, and I’ll make sure your pets’ needs are prioritized around my work. Reliable, consistent, and full of heart—that’s how I approach both my schedule and my pet care! When I care for pets in a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their own space. I follow your routines closely—from feeding schedules to favorite toys—so your pets experience as little disruption as possible while you’re away. For dogs, I provide regular walks for exercise and stimulation, along with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and affection. For cats, I make sure litter boxes are clean, meals are on time, and they get the attention (or space!) they prefer. I treat your home with the same respect as my own, and I keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your furry family is doing. Growing up I’ve always owned several animals and so many plans were disrupted by the stressor of not being able to trust anyone with your babies. I can ensure you, I will make that worry disappear! My goal is simple: to give your pets the love and care they deserve while giving you total peace of mind.
About: I’ve had dogs for all of my life and currently I have two of my own. I’ve gotten asked a lot to watch peoples dogs, and I always make sure that I prioritize their needs to make everyone happy. I do walk as much as I can and I run as well, I enjoy playing with the dogs and giving some belly rubs! I currently work part time and I make my schedule a week ahead of time so I plan accordingly for the needs of the pets. My schedule ranges all different times so I would be able to come let the dogs out or play with the cats in 2 to 4 hour intervals depending on my shifts which usually start in the late afternoon. I make sure that the pets needs are prioritized, and I make sure that anything the owner has requested of me to do for the pet will be met. If there are any messes, I will clean them up and if there are any specific instructions, I will follow to T.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Salisbury choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Salisbury with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
