“Tiffany was great and took good care of our boys. She was easy to communicate with and responsive. Sent pictures and updates. Would definitely recommend!”

About: Hello!! My name is Abby. I am a recent Physician Assistant graduate awaiting my first job in the health care field. I have grown up with a mixture of dogs in my life, have dog sat for years and recently have gotten my own dog Odie who is a Basset Hound. I love dogs and love caring for them. Currently, I am not working so I am very flexible in my availability! I can do morning, afternoon or evening walks. I can also help with breakfast or dinner or anything else you might need for your pet! I am very accommodating and can do pretty much anything you need for your dog. I am comfortable with crating, working on tricks, going on walks and whatever else they might need.
“Courtney took such great care and played with our kitty Semita, highly recommend! Booked last minute trip and she was great at communicating and taking pictures!”
“Danielle is awesome. We have four dogs, three of them on the bigger side, and one has to wear a belly band due to marking in the house. She’s awesome about getting it off him before going out to potty and putting a new one on. It’s an odd task, but she handles it with ease! She does weekly visits for us and is great with the pups. Trustworthy and thorough - we highly recommend her!”
“Yasmeen is adaptable and considerate when unexpected issues pop up. It's hard to leave your furry friend behind, but knowing they're in such good hands makes it a little easier. I cannot thank her enough for the care she shows for my scaredy cat.”
“Kaitlyn was an amazing pet sitter for our 120 pound great pyr/ GSD mix! While our dog can be a bit tough meeting new people, Kaitlyn dove right in and provided regular check ins, potty breaks, and playtime for our boy. Would highly recommend!”
“Clareese was so kind and attentive. She took great care of my cat and also kept me informed the whole time I was away. I was not worried at all. She was a perfect fit for our needs, and I definitely will be rebooking her!”
About: I've cared for all kinds of animals and am happy to do dirty work that animals need to live clean. I'm a thorough, compassionate caretaker and I want to work with what your house and pets need. I work 5 days a week as a park ranger, but am looking for care opportunities in certain evenings and on weekends. I have two cats myself, which limits my boarding opportunities, but my schedule still allows for overnight stays. I have two cats myself, both are fed no-grain dry food and vitamin/oral supplements with wet food. One cat needs much play, exercise, and attention, while the other needs to be seen and talked sweetly to, and only pet while she eats. I've spent much time learning their behaviors and needs, and intend to do the same with every animal in my care. Even my snake had a way to tell me he was too cold or overhandled and wanted to be put back. I've had many guinea pigs and hamsters, and came up with creative ways to enrich them without endangering them. I've cared for many bugs, and know how and when to check their moisture levels, I do extended research on their diet needs and substrate needs, and I'll do the same for you. Animals and pets are family, though they can't tell you what they need, you can always learn and provide for them.
About: Growing up surrounded by animals, my love for my pets naturally evolved to leaning towards caring for other people's pets. I bring 6 years of reliable, hands-on pet care experience spanning multiple life stages — from energetic puppies navigating their first milestones to adult pets needing attentive companionship. Over the years, I have managed a wide variety of temperaments and behavioral quirks, ensuring that every dog and cat in my care feels secure, comfortable, and loved. What truly distinguishes my service is my proactive, communication-first approach combined with a calm, adaptable energy. I don't just check the boxes for feeding and walks; I focus entirely on mirroring your pet's normal routine to minimize any separation anxiety. I prioritize absolute transparency, providing you with detailed, high-quality updates and photos so you can have complete peace of mind while you are away. Whether it be drop-in visits at your home or boarding your pet at mine, I always treat your pet with the utmost respect and like family. As I have dogs of my own, it will fit like a glove as I will be caring for your dog alongside my own. I will treat your dog like my own. Dogs are very important to me regardless whether it’s my own dog or someone else’s. I will make sure that dog is safe and feels cared for in any environment.
“Hailey is an amazing sitter for my pets. She is prompt, responsive, and genuinely cares about my pets which is so helpful for me. I love the photos that I get and after visit notes and feel that my pets are being well cared for while I'm at work”
About: I adopted a Maltese poodle mix from a shelter when she was 10 years old and cared for her through her senior years, up to age 17. She came from a rough background and didn't trust anyone at first, so it took real patience to earn that trust. Over time I taught her commands, potty-trained her, and helped her feel safe again through her senior years. That experience taught me how much consistency and gentle patience matter for dogs who need extra support, especially seniors or pups recovering from a hard start. I believe animals show us what unconditional love looks like, and what it means to earn it. I would be so excited and honored to be a part of ensuring the happiness and well-being of you and your pup's lives! I am available anytime after 4:30pm Monday through Friday! On weekends and holidays I am usually more open/available so can definitely be more flexible! During walks, I'll bring extra water and a small bowl for your pup in case they need it. If you're able to provide potty bags, that's a big help — but if not, I'm happy to bring my own, no problem at all! I always maintain distance between your dog and any others we pass, since you can never predict another dog's temperament or reaction. Your dog's safety is my absolute top priority, and I want to make sure they feel comfortable and secure throughout the walk.
About: I am a pet parent to my lovely Yoshi the cat and Tender the dog. I have grown up with pets. I don’t have professional skillset but I am quite good with animals. I promise to take great care of your pets I am currently working part time as a cater waiter/bartender. I have also just gone back to online school for my bachelors degree. This means I do have quite a bit of free time. I also have a car so I am able to get to your pet in convenient time. I love taking care of my pets. I make sure to brush them frequently so they are nice and fluffy. I also make sure to check their business just to keep an eye out. I am very good at following directions and can definitely help take care of your fur babies.
“Denyal cared for our two cats for approximately two weeks. They were well cared for and not stressed out when we returned as they have been in the past with other sitters. She really cares for animals and it shows!”

This was our second time having Jennifer as our pet sitter, and she was amazing again! She took great care of our pets and had excellent communication. Jennifer went above and beyond with sending updates additional tasks that she offered without us even asking (like taking out our trash). We have her booked again for the future!
Tiffany was fantastic from beginning to end. Jane is pretty shy when it comes to new people, but Tiffany took her time each visit to lure Jane out to make sure she had some fun and treats. Tiffany was nothing but professional and friendly the entire time, she was so easy to work with and I look forward to booking with her again.
Jiawen is very responsive, she always replies timely whenever we leave her messages. She is also amazingly creative by finding a way to resolve the ant issue so Gawman could have normal healthy diets when we were away from home. I feel worriless knowing that Gawman has been in good hands and been taken good care of. I will definitely book Jiawen's service when we travel again and I will be more than happy to recommend her to friends who are in need.
Booking with Alyx gives us absolute peace of mind our kitties are going to be well taken care of! Not only does she play with them during her visits but gives us a detailed update on how the cats are doing. Her pictures are always a great addition as we get to see the cats and how much fun they have with her.
Abigail was wonderful! We ended up having some last minute work being done on our yard, but she was flexible and went with the flow do what the dogs needed and could be done with our gate open. The dogs adored her and she took good pictures! She arrived on time or a few minutes early to each appointment.
My dog is always very excited to see Akira! He’s taken the time to get to know my dog, who is not immediately in love with everyone, and I’ve been able to hire him for weekly check-ins. Communication is super easy. Akira has a calm and kind presence that is a great counterbalance for my dog with big feelings. At the same time, he can bring out my dog’s playful side which I believe helps reduce my dog’s stress of having someone other than his family come inside the house.
Polina did an amazing job taking care of my two cats! She is the first person I've hired through Rover and I could not be more happy with the attention and love she gave to my cats while I was away. I never had to worry that my cats were well and responsibility cared for while Polina was watching them. I would definitely work with her again for my pet care highly recommend her to others!
Rebekah did a terrific job. She took great care of my very shy cat. Rebekah got him to come out and play which made me so happy. I was gone longer than usual so getting those happy photos of him playing, belly up, and sitting with her made me very happy. I highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Sharpsburg is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 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 2,626 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sharpsburg. 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.
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.

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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
