About: I have 2 cattos, Poppy and Percy. I've grown up with a dog and plenty of other critters, guinea pigs, gerbils, fish and turtles. I'm a professional photographer, and my kitties are my main subjects. I am comfortable watching people furry babies and giving them the attention they want. I've spent my weekends watching my sisters 3 doggos when I lived closer to her. I'm currently working part time and my schedule is flexible during the week. I will have weekend availability for pet visits. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I like to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll provide updates and photos during visits so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and have cared for all kinds of pets over the years. Growing up, my family always had dogs, so I learned early on how to handle everything from playful puppies to senior dogs who needed a little extra attention. As an adult, I’ve personally owned small caged pets and currently own 2 cats, giving me a well-rounded understanding of different animal personalities and care needs. I currently share my home with two adopted cats, each with their own unique story and background. With patience and care, I was able to successfully introduce them to each other despite their age difference and differing temperaments—it was so rewarding and relieving to see them become friends! I understand that every pet is unique and deserves compassionate, individualized care, and I treat every animal I meet like one of my own. I currently work a full time job with the military during the week, but am home early in the afternoon to provide care, comfort, and cuddles to my furry friends and yours! I have a spacious apartment with lots of toys and 2 friendly cats to keep tour furry friend company. Walking around my neighborhood is a breeze with pet pickup spots along the way and a safe environment for walks no matter what time.
“Robert had impeccable communication and was flexible with our schedule. We really appreciated the thorough updates and pictures from each drop-in visit. We would definitely use him again!”
“Charve was a reliable pet care giver and sitter while I was away. Although my cat Terrell didn’t make an appearance, he clearly was well taken care of water food and litter box care, all is well.”
About: I've take care of my family's animals while they went away on vacation and I also cared for family's animals when I use to babysit in their homes. I currently work full time on the army base 7-4 and I'm off on weekends. I get an hour lunch so I don't mind stopping past and feeding or walking your pet. I'm in a spacious apartment and can crate your pet if needed, I also have a very friendly cat in the home that sleeps most of the day on my bed.
About: I’m a dog lover through and through. I’m a teacher by trade, so I have flexibility during the summers to walk or dog sit, essentially all day! I have experience in walking and boarding large and small breeds alike. I pride myself on providing meaningful and engaging walks and making sure owners feel comfortable and secure by sending updates and pictures during and after care! Hi!! I’m a teacher and I have the summers free, so I use this as an opportunity to pick up extra work that also happens to bring me joy! I can usually work my day around waking your fur babies. I'm all about providing your pup with the utmost care. I have experience with both small and large dogs alike and have no issues walking, feeding, or crating your fur babies!
“Kaitlyn was amazing! Lots of photos of our pup, great detail in the reports and super friendly. Definitely made leaving our pup for an overnight stay easier. Would highly recommend!”
“Miss Catherine is a wonderful dog sitter. I will definitely use her Services again. I really appreciate the pictures and how she tended to my girls. Thank you again miss Catherine”

About: Hi my name is Aayana, i am 28 and i live in the Glen Burnie area but i have a car and can easily travel to and from to walk your pet or to pet sit. I am very passionate about animals and their wellbeing! I’ve had pets all of my life and know the struggles of balancing work and pleasure while also caring for a pet. Generally my family or friends ask me to care for their pets when they are out of town, and I also regularly pet sit for 2 families throughout the year. I also used to be an independent contractor through “Love Those Paws” and “WAG” where i had dogs, cats and other animals to care for! When i’m not caring for pets you can find me enjoying a movie or tv show, painting, hoop dancing or doing hair or lash extensions. I take on demand walks in my free time but generally prefer scheduled/reoccurring walks. Im a small person (100lbs) so my max is 3 dogs to walk at a time and i generally try to find local paths to walk. I am experienced in administering medication for pets I create my own schedule, so i have (mostly) complete flexibility! Mondays & Tuesdays i take & pick up my child from school, so there’s about an hour in the morning and afternoon that i am not available. I do not do boardings at my own house as 2 of my cats have anxiety and introducing a new animal would cause unnecessary stress for them. However, i will do house sittings at the owners home! I currently have 2 families that i have worked with for 3 years that i house/pet sit for throughout the year.
About: I have always had at least one pet throughout my life, and my love for them grows more and more each and every day. I haven’t fully been exposed to everything in the pet world, but I can ensure that I will take great care of your pet(s)! I work part-time and in school. My day to day schedule can vary depending on when I’m scheduled to work, but I will keep my availability as accurate as possible each week. I try to keep my own dog company as much as I can, as well as attend to him whenever he's feeling hungry or lonely. I pay attention to pets' needs and work as best as I can to understand them. I am super gentle with pets as they are so precious to me.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Severn
I hadn’t left Lucy with a dog sitter before. Sara showed up on time, gave Lucy lots of love, made sure she had lots of exercise, fed her, gave her her treats, and even watered my plants! Sara went above and beyond to make sure Lucy felt safe and comfortable. She did a great job and I will definitely ask her to care for Lucy again! Thank you for letting me enjoy my weekend away, knowing Lucy was well cared for.
Christine was incredible! Super professional, asked a lot of questions, and easy to communicate with. She went above and beyond in her drop in visits with our dog, gave updates, and provided great photos. Would absolutely recommend her and use her services again
Jusskayy is a sweetheart! She accommodated me on short notice without a prior meet and greet and I am sooo thankful. She asked all the right questions prior to arrival and it was wonderful. Made me think of things I totally forgot to inform her about. She went over, spend time with my pup and left everything just as she got it. She is a definite top 5 on my sitters to use again!
We couldn’t be happier with Sabine’s care for our miniature Goldendoodle. My Indiana is an anxious pup who requires a bit of patience and we were very pleased with all of the effort, communication and pictures that were provided while we were out of town! 10/10 would definitely book with her again!
Whitney was very communicative and prompt. She responded with very short notice to us in a “we need to leave town for a funeral and have nobody to care for our cat and dog” situation. She met with us before leaving to get instructions and meet our pets, and totally removed this as a stressor during our time of need. Very grateful, and highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Severn is $25 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 13,723 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Severn. 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.
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 Severn 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.
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.
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 .
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.

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.
