“Emily was great and took excellent care of my two cats while I was away! They were very communicative throughout the entire time and they followed all of my instructions exactly as requested. I really appreciated their reliability and attention to detail. I would definitely trust them again in the future.”
“Ashley is very caring and dependable. Even though I was further out than she normally serves, she was willing to take care of my sweet girl until I was able to find someone who lived closer to me, and was able to meet my needs. I appreciate her empathy and caring attitude. I hope Rover is aware of what an asset they have in Ashley. Thank you again, Ashley.”
“Jennie is absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond in every way and treated my dog, Max, like he was her own. From the very first walk, I could tell how much she genuinely cared about him. She sent me updates, gave Max lots of love and attention, and made sure he was happy and comfortable the whole time. Max came back from his walks full of tail wags and smiles! It was such a relief knowing he was in such great hands. I couldn’t recommend Jennie more—she’s the best!”
“Ashley met me outside. She was very professional and calm with our little dog who is not socialized and is very nippy and skittish. She did a very good job handling her thank you very much.”
About: I have grown up with a family dog and developed a strong love for animals. For the past 2 summers, I have cared for my neighbors four dogs, providing walks, feeding, and playtime. My experience has taught me to be responsible, attentive, and trustworthy while making sure pets feel safe and happy. I am currently working part-time while balancing school and lacrosse, but I have set windows of free time each day that make it easy to schedule walks, drop-ins, or playtime. Since I enjoy staying active, incorporating dog walks and pet care into my weekly routine is a natural fit. Availability (subject to change during lacrosse season, but I always keep my calendar updated): Monday: after 12:30pm Tuesday: after 2pm Wednesday: 1pm–4pm Thursday: 9am–11am, after 4pm Friday: unavailable Weekends: vary with lacrosse games, but generally available after 12pm when free I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. Whether at my home or yours, I follow all feeding and medication instructions, supervise playtime, and keep pets out of any unsafe areas. I love giving pets attention, exercise, and lots of love while their owners can relax knowing they’re in good hands.
“First and foremost, Thank you James 🙂 As a first-time Rover customer, We had such an amazing experience with this dog sitting service! From the very beginning, James was professional, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such loving and capable hands. My dogs looked happy and relaxed the entire time of the service. When we returned, it was obvious my dogs had been well cared for and given plenty of attention. I highly recommend James and his service to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate care for their pets! 🐾”
“Aaron did a great job. Helped me out last minute which was appreciated. Was able to operate well without a meet and greet, so he's obviously skilled with dogs. He made sure our outside cat was feed and communicated very well for the duration of his support.”
“Sabine did a fantastic job with our cats while we were away. She took good pictures and kept in close contact with me throughout her visits. The cats were happy when we returned. Thank you!”
“Victoria is amazing!! She is always on time and gives detailed feedback of the visit along with great pictures of our cats. One of our cats is very shy (will not come out for almost any visitor) and she comes out for Victoria every time. This is a huge indicator that Victoria is amazing with animals and that animals love her!”
About: I’ve taken care of various animals. I’ve been specializing in dogs for 6 years. I have my own fur baby named Neo. He’s a 5 year old chihuahua mix who’s always super friendly and welcoming. Neo makes a great play mate so your dog will never be lonely. My husband Jordan and our daughter also love to help out with providing love and support to your fur babies. It’s a family affair. I’ll never be away from your fur baby for long. In case I leave, your dog will be crated. No more than 4 to 6 hours. I have an open yard with plenty of space for your baby to burn some energy. Plenty of toys and extra beds. I’m very attentive and nurturing with my dog so yours will get the same energy.

We take ours out there all the time, it is shallow. But if you don't want them to, they don't need to. Our yard is fully fenced and cut off from the pond. Both my wife and I work, but she works night and I work days. So at all times we have someone home watching the pups. We treat your dog just like they were our own.

“If I could give 10 stars I would! Clarice was wonderful. I hired her to feed my birds while we were away over Thanksgiving weekend. She was on time everyday, sent me pictures and a detail video each day of what she did and of my birds. She went above and beyond. She even brought my packages in, which I didn't ask her to do! I will definitely hire her again!”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover living in Severn with my two spoiled cats. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets while you're away. I have hands-on experience caring for cats and love spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having a companion nearby, I'm happy to provide attentive, loving care tailored to their needs. For cats, I understand the importance of respecting their routines, providing enrichment, and making sure they feel comfortable and secure. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! My current work schedule has me in the office 7am - 3:30pm. I'm available Monday - Friday anytime after 4pm, and am available overnight. Saturdays, Sundays & holidays are flexible! I can easily keep your dog separate from my two cats if needed. There is a (unfenced) yard that backs into the woods. My house is tucked away in a lovely neighborhood with sidewalks, perfect to walk your pup.
“Melissa is phenomenal! I cannot say enough great things about the service she provides to my cat! It's nice to be able to go out of town and completely trust her as my pet sitter.”
“This was my first time using Rover & first time using someone that was family/friends to watch Elli. Couldn’t have asked for a better choice than Nia! She was exactly on time with each visit and sent the best pics. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“JHahna was fantastic with our pup while we were away. We were so grateful she was able to take care of her last minute. Every drop-in visit, she messaged to see if there were any special requests. She made sure Harlee had plenty of water and food and was well taken care of!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Severn
Rachel was outstanding with her care of our cat Calvin who is diabetic but in remission. She checked his sugar levels every 2-3 days to make sure his levels were in the normal range, was on time, and sent plenty of pictures and videos. This allowed our family to relax and enjoy our 10 day vacation stress-free. Can't recommend Rachel enough to watch your pet.
Madison got along very well with our two cats when we were out for the weekend! They followed all of our instructions to the letter and did extra work to make sure our cats were happy and our home was just the way we left it. She was attentive to the specific emotional needs of each cat. I would highly recommend them for pet sitting.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Severn on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 14,470 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Severn. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Severn stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Severn. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
