“I messaged Jaden and she was able to come that same evening for a meet and great, and start walks as early as the next day. I highly recommend her! Jaden has been walking my puppy Toby for 3 weeks now. On time, great communication, super flexible and has great availability. Will continue to work with Jaden moving forward.”

About: I'm Hannah! I have two boys, ages 3 and 7. My kids are great with dogs as we have been doing Rover for over 6 years. We are dog lovers and we would love to have your doggy in our home while you are away! I can offer as much or as little outside time that’s needed. Your baby will be in great hands while you’re away and you won’t miss a beat with all the pictures that are sent your way. Your dog will get a lot of outside time, exercise, play time, snuggles and freedom. Please feel free to message me with any questions or special requests. (: I have a flexible work schedule and work from home 3 days a week. We love to be outdoors playing but are also completely fine staying inside and relaxing. We treat any dog in our home like family. We try to make them feel as comfortable as possible as we understand that being out of their home and away from their owners can cause different behaviors such as anxiety, sadness, hyperness, etc.

“Literally my #1 go to! Always amazing, super helpful in a pinch! And Amore loves her!”

About: I am reliable, loving, and attentive, ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while their owners are away. I feel pets are part of the family and I do allow them on my furniture and give lots of snuggles and kisses. I have over 26 years of experience raising my own pets to identify sickness and can administer meds (including insulin shots) if needed. Your fur babies will be my top priority and I promise to care for them like they are my own. I am available for watching your fur baby in my home to include overnight or coming to your house (not overnight), walks, or other care you may need. My schedule is flexible and will accommodate your needs. I have a privacy fenced yard and 4 sweet pups of my own to keep your dog(s) company. My property has multiple video cameras for security and I can send you photos and videos while you are away or FaceTime with you so you can see your babies are having fun and being well taken care of and loved. I understand pet care very well as I have had 8 fur babies previous to the 4 I have currently from big dogs to little dogs. I am very aware of changes in behavior or if fur babies aren’t feeling well and will communicate with you if I think your baby is not feeling well.

“Emily is amazing. She gives my dog Bella walks usually 3 times a week. Emily has gone above and beyond to assist me with getting Bella to the vet when she was sick and I couldn't take her. Bella loves having her Emily come and take her out for a 30 minute walk.I honestly couldn't be more happier with the service.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals of varying sizes and species since I was 10, whether they were my own pets or others. Multiple friends and family members have trusted/relied on me to care for their animals because of how much respect I have for them in general. Though I do have a soft spot for dogs since I have two. I’m gonna be learning at my mom’s boutique which will leave my schedule pretty open so I decided to use Rover again. I can offer my services most of the time, not just conveniently but happily. (I’m currently not offering boarding anymore but I do offer house sitting/drop in visits.) There’s a saying, ‘treat others how you how you want to be treated,’ and I apply the same thing to our animals. They are a part of our families and I’ll treat them no differently. I will give them the respect they deserve.

About: I have grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I watch neighbors and family members dogs on a regular basis(feeding, walking, etc.). I love animals and being outdoors. Dog walking is one of my favorite activities that combines two areas of life I love! I am currently a full time college student and work part-time. My schedule allows plenty of flexibility, especially this summer without school! Mornings and evenings are preferred, but I am able to switch around my routine to accommodate your pup(s)! I have two cats who are very pet friendly! I am fully capable to accommodate anything your pet may need to ensure they are safe and loved while their owner is away!

About: I’ve been around pets my entire life and have been taking care of them from a young age. Animals have always been a major part of my life, and the bond I have with them is apparent to animals and humans alike. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, reptiles, and fish, but love all furry, scaly, or feathery friends. I’ve also cared for these animals at all stages of life. Your babies will love being cared for by me, they’ll be loved and cared for just like my own family! My schedule is currently available around the clock, I have availability during the mornings, daytime, and evenings both weekdays and weekends. Contact me today for care! I am available to care for your pets at your home, or take your dogs on walks in the immediate area around your house. You can rest assured that your pet will be treated with compassion, care, and attention.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was five years old. I grew up with a cocker spaniel, who really tied our family together with love. In grad school I rescued a mix breed and named her Eirene, which means peace. She brought a lot of peace to my life. We have doodles now, who are perfect family dogs. When we go away we like to know our dogs are being well cared for. I enjoy offering that peace of mind to families. You can enjoy your time away knowing your pup is in a loving home environment and being well cared for. I’m a homeschooling mom to two teenage boys. Our days are usually spent at home and our evenings are full with various activities. We would welcome your dogs in our home and treat them as part of our family. We have a fenced yard with plenty of space to run and explore. We go on two walks every day, one in the morning and one in the evening and offer endless ear scratches and belly rubs.

About: Big dogs, little dogs; I have over 25 years of experience with animals. Growing up, I worked at Gaithersburg Animal Hospital where I walked, fed, cleaned, and performed lab work. Pet care is my full-time job. Your pets will be supervised throughout the day. I'm flexible with drop-offs and pick-ups, but request a couple hours in advanced If you need assistance with transportation, we can assist with that too. Please ask for more details! I live in a cottage right outside of Smithsburg, Maryland. The lot is 1.5 acres of land. Hygiene and safety are at the topmost importance. Your dogs will not stay crated and can access the entire property. We have cameras, which you can access to check up on your pet. We play fetch, swim in our doggy pool, and get walked regularly. Other Services Provided Upon Request – Baths, Photos, Hikes

“Matt is amazing with my little princess (really she is big). My dog has some anxieties around new things and going potty, he manages this really well. He is patient with my hound dog who will sniff anything and everything for hours, if allowed. I am very happy we found Matt and highly recommend him for pet care services!”

About: I have experience, taking care of cats, dogs, and chickens. I am willing to take care of smaller animals, such as hamsters, birds or guinea pigs as well. During the summer, I am home most days of the week. I am a full time teacher so I am off during the summer. Therefore I am very reliable and flexible with times. I have a fenced in yard that’s big enough for dogs to get some exercise. I have an older beagle who is very docile. I have two kids who also enjoy seeing and meeting new animals.

About: Hi! My name is April. After growing up around dogs, my husband and I decided to get our first dog-a Hurricane Katrina rescue-as soon as we got married! Having a love for dogs evolved into a partnership with a local rescue in which I've volunteered for transport, adoption home visits, adoption follow up, and fostering. 3 dogs later-I enjoy walking the dogs around the farm, car rides(with drive thrus for pup treats of course!), and cuddling on the couch(our dogs know how to nap!). My friends know that my house is the "dog house" and that their dogs are welcome to come have fun and hang out too! I tend to be the "go to" friend when someone needs a pet sitter:) I specialize in special needs and geriatric care.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and my experience is mostly centered around dogs. At one point, I had five dogs of my own, but currently, I’m lucky to have two. While dogs are my main focus, I’ve also had the pleasure of caring for cats, horses, birds, reptiles, and smaller mammals like bunnies. No matter the pet, I treat each one with the same love and attention, ensuring they get the best care possible. You can trust that I’ll treat your furbabies as if they were my own! I work from home, so I’m usually available throughout the week and most weekends, making me super flexible for drop-ins and walks! While I can sometimes accommodate daytime requests, I generally prefer to schedule walks and visits after 4 p.m. once my workday is wrapped up. I’m happy to work with your pet’s schedule and provide them with the care and attention they deserve! When I take your dog on a walk or visit your pet, I treat them like they're my own. I make sure walks are fun and tailored to their energy level, whether it’s a relaxing stroll or a more energetic outing. I keep a close eye on them to ensure they’re comfortable and safe the entire time. During drop-ins, I’ll give them lots of love, playtime, and bathroom breaks, and make sure they have fresh water. I’ll keep you updated with tons of photos, so you can see how much fun they’re having and know they’re in good hands! Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
