“Cheri was a wonderful sitter! She filled in last minute when we had another sitter cancel on us, which was very helpful. She was communicative and our girls seemed happy and healthy when we got home. She left our house in great shape. We will definitely contact her again!”
“Alina was a great dog sitter for us and did so well with our pup while we were out of town. She’s very kind, responsible and responsive. She also communicated well with us, sent us pictures of walks and cuddles with our pup, and kept us updated, which made us feel very reassured while we were away. I highly recommend her for your pet needs!”
“Sara was a lifesaver! She helped house sit our two greyhounds and a guinea pig on short notice, salvaging a family vacation. She was responsive while we were away and when we got home, everything was as we left it and it was clear the dogs (and pig) had been exceptionally well cared for. We'll definitely be requesting her services in the future.”
“Emma cared for our two energetic medium sized dogs in our home. They were very comfortable with her and she sent pictures throughout her stay. Very pleased and would book with Emma again.”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the care Justine provided. From the beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and professional and we received regular updates and photos, which made being away so much easier. When we returned home, our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. That says everything. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and compassionate dog sitter.”
“Maria is an incredible Rover sitter, you will not be disappointed trusting her to care for your fur baby. We entrusted her with our special needs Corgi, who has epilepsy and requires a strict medication and daily schedule. Maria followed our instructions to a “T” and provided pictures of every meal and medication administration! We were away for 13 days, and Maria helped ease all anxieties we had about leaving our fur baby thousands of miles away. Maria is a wonderful communicator, highlighting the good and bad of each day! Her patience was immense for our boy, and we cannot wait to have her back. She also did an incredible job of taking care of our home, and even washed her own linens before we made it back. Maria makes her rover clients her #1 priority, and is an absolute dream sitter. By the end of our trip, she even started to feel like a friend 💕.”
“Owen was fantastic. Not only was he responsive but the dogs were well taken care of. They were walked, fed, played with, and given a lot of love. While he was watching the pups he also kept the house clean. I got daily pictures ands updates which helped to put my mind at ease about my pups while I was on vacation. I will use Owen again”
“Angela was very prompt, responsible, and communicative. I booked her a few weeks in advance, she came over once to meet my dog and get an idea of her routine. She then came back the day before my trip for a refresher. She took care of my dog exactly as we had discussed and sent regular pictures and updates while I was gone. My home was exactly as I left it when I got back. Would definitely use Angela again!”
“Karen took wonderful care of our dogs, Sam and Tito, for a full week while we were on vacation. She was incredibly responsive, always sending updates and photos when we asked, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our boys were happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She also left our home in perfect condition, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely book with Karen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter!”
“Alyssa did a great job! She sent messages and photos to ease our minds while we were away and was very respectful of our home. I would definitely have her watch our pups again!”
“Jaime was great! Very reliable and responsive. We know our pup was well taken care of. He sent multiple pictures every day! Further, he left the house immaculate and left a thank you card and goodies for our dog. We highly recommend him to care for your pet.”
“Leigh Ann was amazing taking care of our dogs and cat while we were on vacation. She sent us regular updates of time spent with our pets. Her attention and care was as if they were her own dogs.”
“I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Neri was incredible! My dog is not the easiest, but she was so patient with him. He was also on a ton of meds and she handled all of them perfectly. We got multiple updates a day from Neri and she was so flexible when our travel plans changed at the last minute. After staying in my home with the dog for a week, the house was spotless. I even heard from my neighbors how wonderful she was. Neri will be my #1 dog sitter going forward. I can’t recommend her enough. She provided an absolutely amazing experience.”
“Jacob really outdid my expectations! I don’t think Kobe has ever had so much fun, great exercise and love as he did with Jacob! Will definitely use again in the future. Jacob is a golden star ⭐️”
“Jennifer did a great job watching our dogs and cat (and bunny). Even with rough weather and power outages, the animals were in good hands. Thank you for keeping them healthy, happy and entertained.”
“Ady was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our cat and dog had a great week while we were away. Our 115lb dog can sometimes be reactive to other dogs. Ady was completely comfortable and experienced with large dogs and was able to handle him just fine. She’s also experienced with cats and gave ours plenty of snuggles and TLC. She sent us frequent and thorough updates (and photos) which I really appreciated! She was happy to do long walks, spend long visits at our house just giving our animals company, and even took our dog for an excursion (after asking us if it was ok) and brought him a special new toy. I just hope she’s available next time we go away!”

Owen was amazing! He took great care of our two dogs Tasha and Sadie! He was very professional and communicative while we were away allowing us to truly enjoy our vacation knowing our dogs were well taken care of. We will definitely be booking with Owen again!
Courtney was great! We felt very comfortable being away knowing that our pets were getting so much love and attention. We had clear and frequent communications and a plenty of pictures confirming all the good things happening. We'd (and our critters) would be very happy to see Courtney again.
Tessa was great! She was our first dogsitter for our four year old bernedoodle and we were nervous leaving her for a spring break vacation, but she and Tessa really bonded and had a fun time together. Tessa stayed in our house for 5 nights, was very responsive to texts, and took great care of our dog Bebe, taking her for walks, playing with her, feeding her, and cuddling with her. She also sent some adorable pictures so we knew Bebe was in good hands. We hope to have her dogsit for us again soon! Would definitely recommend her to others looking for a responsible and caring dogsitter.
Jazmin is great! Our furbaby, Einstein, is very comfortable with her! Jazmin is great with our big (pushing 60 lbs) rescue pup. She keeps him calm and happy while we are gone- she is clearly comfortable with large breed dogs. We definitely recommend her - we actually have her booked for future dates. 5 stars!

FAQs for House Sitting - Severna Park
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Severna Park on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 8,278 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Severna Park. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Severna Park walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Severna Park maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Severna Park 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
