About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have always been good with pets! Im good at reading their body language and emotions creating strong and reliable relationships! Our pets are our kids so I will make sure they are treated as such! I work part time leaving time to make meaningful connections with your animals! I and my fiancé are very active and love to include out animals in our everyday! I cater to your pets routine! Knowing how specific pets can be, I’m happy to follow instructions to keep your pet stress free and comfortable!
About: As an experienced dog & house rabbit owner and credentialed veterinary technician (FL), I understand that every pet and species needs vary. I am excited to work you as a pet parent to find out what works for you and your pets individual needs. Your dog will be with someone consistently thru their stay with potty breaks, walks, cuddles, and playtime as they enjoy. My partner works from home and my time is spent caring for dogs, tending our garden, and painting pet portrait commissions. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog (yellow lab) that can keep your dog company or be kept separate if needed. We can easily accommodate a crate in quiet spaces or more central based on what your pet is used to. My goal is to make my home feel as familiar as their own. I do require all dogs staying in my home to, at minimum, be up-to-date on their Rabies vaccination and be on flea prevention (I’m happy to provide resources where these are accessible if needed). Other vaccines and parasite preventions are highly recommended. Beginning August 2026: all dogs will be also required to have an up-to-date Distemper / Parvo (DAPP) vaccination as well.
About: I’ve loved being around animals for as long as I can remember! Throughout college, I’ve cared for friends’ dogs while they were away and have also kitten sat, giving me experience with both dogs and cats. Growing up, I had a dog with diabetes, so I’m comfortable administering insulin and understand the importance of following a pet’s care routine closely. I love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly home with plenty of room for your pet to relax and explore. I just moved home from college and while my parents aren’t quite ready for the long-term commitment of having a pet of our own, I’d love the opportunity to provide a safe, caring, and fun temporary home for your furry family member through Rover! I’m currently working in person on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and have the rest of the days of the week to play with your furry friends! Your pet will have plenty of space to feel comfortable and stay active during their stay! My home has a large backyard and front yard, providing lots of room for supervised outdoor time and play. Inside, my home also offers plenty of space for pets to relax, explore, and feel at home.
“Natalie was great, from changes plans to changed times she was nothing but helpful and pleasant. I appreciate the care she took to come and do a visit with my big guy before anything was set. She came at the times that were available to me even they were not the easiest for her. I appreciate her interaction with all my guys. She took great care of not only my pets but my property as well. When I came back, it was like I never left. Thanks for all your help. I am a sitter on Rover as well, and this is the exact things I try to show the people I work for. 100% star sitter.”
About: Hi! While I’m new to pet sitting professionally, I take responsibility and trust very seriously.

I understand how important it is to feel at ease leaving your pet with someone, and I’m committed to providing a calm, loving, and reliable experience every time. Pets fit into my week really easily! I love having a routine, so I can make sure your pet gets walks, playtime, and cuddles every day. I’m flexible and happy to adapt to what they need: morning snuggles, evening play, or just hanging out. I like keeping things consistent so your pet feels happy and cared for while you’re away I care for pets right in the comfort of their own home, sticking to their routine and making sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I provide walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and lots of attention, and I’ll keep you updated so you know your furry friend is doing well. My goal is to make their time alone as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! Family, friends, neighbors, have trusted and relied on me for all their pet needs. I currently work full time but with a flexible schedule! Early mornings, afternoons, and some weekends are my availability. Short term or long term works great! I am able to come to your home and/or take your sweet pup to a dog park. I can crate, or simply let in and out. Really your preference.
“Bhavana has a great energy that put us our dogs at ease right away during her Meet & Greet. We felt confident and comfortable to enjoy our vacation while she was caring for Lucy and Lola. Thank you!”
“Stephanie is fantastic! This is our second time having her come watch our pet and she has been phenomenal. She really takes the anxiety out of going away/travel with her detailed communication and obvious love and care for our pets.”
“James was wonderful with our kitties! From giving medication to communication, everything was great. We appreciate him caring for our cats during the holidays and will definitely be using him in the future!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 30 years and grew up with both dogs and cats. I currently have a rescue pup named Spot and have cared for pets for friends, neighbors, and families while they traveled. For over a year, I visited a friend’s dogs multiple times a day while she worked as a traveling nurse. I provided food, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I also offer litter box cleaning, mail collection, plant watering, and photo updates. I enjoy caring for friendly, house-trained pets and always prefer a meet-and-greet beforehand so your pet feels comfortable with me. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to provide dependable care seven days a week, including weekends and most holidays. I work part-time remotely, so I can typically visit up to three times a day. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and communicating with pet owners so you always know how your pet is doing. I know your pets are family, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, keep routines consistent, and always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I prefer meeting your pet before accepting a booking so we can make sure everyone feels comfortable. I’ll also send photos and updates after every visit because I know how reassuring it is to see a happy face while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I could walk. I have never had a time in my life where I have not had at least one dog. I currently have a 5 year old pit mix. I just lost my 15 year old girl. I trained them both from 8 week puppies. So I have extensive experience with puppies and seniors. I am skilled at giving medication and can work with anxious or reactive or hyperactive dogs. I have also had cats and am familiar with their unique personalities! I work from home so my schedule is fairly flexible. I can work from wherever there is WiFi so as long as your house has WiFi I can be there as much as you require! I will take care of your home in addition to your fur baby. I will keep it as it first was when I arrived. Your fur baby will be safe, well loved, and well taken care of in your absence.
About: Hi! I’m Scarlett, a 30-year-old lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. I grew up on a farm where caring for animals was part of my everyday life, teaching me early on that every animal has unique needs and deserves patience, compassion, and reliable care. Today, I have six pets of my own: two senior dogs (one 5 pounds and one 90 pounds), two cats, and two ferrets. This has made me very comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, and mobility needs, and I always tailor my care to each pet. I’m experienced with administering medications, including oral meds and injections, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions, special diets, and routines. Whether your pet loves walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. You can expect regular updates and clear communication while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Monday-Fridays: 6:30am-7:30am / 5:30pm-11:00pm Saturday - Sunday full open availability If you have specific times please feel free to ask. I may be able to accommodate I treat all animals like I would my very own. I have great attention to details depends on each one’s unique quirks. If you have a fenced yard I ensure gates are closed. Leashed before doors open for walks. I’ve handled horses so big dogs are not a problem. If your pets get crated I also ensure it’s properly latched. Im also very used to animal body language and feel comfortable around navigating when some animals dont get along in the same household with each other and on what to do
“Maddie was awesome. This was our first experience with her and she did not disappoint. Her whole focus was our two dogs. Spending quality time with each one insuring not only were their needs of fee, watering and outside to pee, poop and run off some energy accomplished; but she loved on them a lot and did things like brushing their coats and cleaning their dog bowls at the end of the visits. We felt very comfortable with Maddie taking care of our dogs and will use her in the future.”
“Loren cared for my babies while I was at work and let me tell you, she did amazing! She sent me messages and photos of the babes to make sure I was aware of how they were doing. From the meet and greet to every day after she kept me up to date and cared for my boys like her own!!! ❤️ just book her already!!”
“Megan is fantastic!! Took great care of our 3 cats and even thought of things to do to entertain them that I hadn’t thought of and they seem very comfortable with her. Megan is super reliable, responsive and communicative. Will definitely book her again!”

About: This will be my first time being a sitter and I am extremely excited. I have always wanted to be a pet sitter since a little girl. I really love pets and have one back in my home country but do to moving countries I wasen’t allowed to bring her due to new US rules! I really miss her and I would treat those who I would sit as my own pet. I have this whole week off due to inventory at my job so I have 24/7 for the dates 19-25 of july. I don’t do anything else. I have a big back yard for all who would love a great play time. Cars barely pass by my house. I have a 2 store house which can be used by the pets !

Rilea was amazing! She took great care of our boys Oscar and Larry. She gave us great communication with each visit and plenty of pictures that made you feel they were being taken care 100%. Very easy to talk with that she could be part of the family. Definitely looking forward for our next trip and rebooking with Rilea! She is wonderful!
Austin is a life saver. We have two dogs, one who is very nervous and protective and even had a biting incident. This made it very difficult for us to go on vacations since finding a sitter would be difficult. We reached out to Austin, explained the situation, and asked if he could come by every couple of weeks for the dog to get used to him, and he said he'd be happy to help us. The plan worked and, after several visits, we were able to go on a five day vacation! Austin cared for the dogs each day, showed up on time, sent pictures and notes, and even said he and the dog had bonded by the end! We recommend and will definitely use Austin in the future.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Sharpsburg stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
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 Sharpsburg 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 Sharpsburg with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
