I am a 24 year old college student, in the Baltimore City area, and I love all sizes, shapes, and breed of Dogs. I am a biology/ Art major at Bowie State University. I am 5 ft even, but I can handle even a Great Dane. I am use to all temperaments, and will handle with the utmost care when dealing with well mattered and untrained dogs—even the ones that have forgotten some of their Doggy training education. If your dog is a cuddlier, then he/she will love me. I give hugs all day, So please call me at your earliest convenience. Big or small, I love them all.
About: I had about 20 different pets by the time I was 18. Ducks, dogs, cats, reptiles, parrots, fish, etc! I look forward to building new relationships with pet owners and their wonderful pets! I'm working part time and have a flexible schedule every day, including weekends and holidays. I know schedules can change quickly so I try to be very accommodating. I am happy to do whatever you request to care for your pet in your home. I won't ever bring other pets around your home.
About: I've had pets since I was born and as soon as I was able, I did everything I could to take care of them. Once I got old enough, I began pet sitting for family friends and neighbors which includes feeding pets, taking them on walks, bathing them, etc. I have moved recently and am living without pets for the first time in a while and feel as if I am missing a part of my life. I am a full time college student but have mostly open availability except for Thursdays. Otherwise, I am only busy after 5 on Wednesdays and before 1 on Tuesdays. When watching your pet, I will do everything I can to provide the same love and care that you do. I will give them my utmost attention, exercise them, love them, and take every step necessary to providing them with full care.
About: I always love being around dogs. I enjoy taking dogs on walks in dog parks and through t neighborhoods. I can do anything when it comes to taking care of dogs. Dog owners will be in good hands. I am working full time but I can make time for what is needed when it comes to taking care of your pet. Working together is a major plus. Currently I live in a home where I’m not allowed to own a pet. When it comes to taking care of pets in a clients home I’m capable of doing pretty much anything.
“Rob has been consistent, communicative and fantastic with our pup, Poe. We have enjoyed working with him and look forward to more visits. We are also planning to utilize him for boarding during an upcoming beach trip.”
About: Hi, please call me Jupiter :) Pets have been in my life since I was six, and in one way or another I've found myself responsible for the care of one since I was ten or so! Whether it be family, friends, or a stray - I adore animals! I pride myself in my approach to pets as I do with children: be firm, but respectful. Understand boundaries and do my best to read the situation with what information I'm given and what I can infer from there. Its always great to immediately bond with a furry friend, but all living beings deserve basic respect and compassion! I've met very few pets I didn't hit it off with, but even my great aunt's black cat, old and cranky as he is, let me feed him and exist nearby without claws (as is his M.O. with anyone who isn't his owner). Long story short, I adore all the fauna earth has to offer and make it my mission to successfully cohabitate at minimum, and a strong bond more often :) I now have a car again! I work 5p to 8p Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday and 8a-8p Thursday! The day time hours are subject to change based on the gig but I'm currently off weekends and don't mind working you and your furry friend into my schedule! Overnights are fine though Id have to leave early on 12 hour days - coming back after isn't an issue for longer stays! Drop ins are extra welcome at the moment :) While I cannot board, I take care to leave a home as I found it, if not better. I prioritize learning and writing specific safety and miscellaneous expectations for easy access, and default keep doors locked + my shoes off. I also think it's important to not disrupt set routines, so if a furry friend needs to be crated by a certain time, an alarm fifteen or twenty minutes prior is key to be timely and have grace if said pet may not love crate time.
About: I have been pet sitting for more than 10 years, I have my own dog here in Baltimore! I have grown up with 4 dogs and 2 cats and just love love love animals! I am a pediatric registered nurse so I work 3- 12 hour shifts per week! My other days during the week are free for you and your pets!! I am willing to walk, feed, and hang out with your pets of all shapes and sizes! Can do pretty much anything needed with the pets!
About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats since I was a kid. I grew up with a tabby cat who was with the family for 16 years. I also have a small terrier mix named Jackson who I’ve raised since he was 8 weeks old—he’s 9 now! I also have my baby girl Nestle, who is a 2 year old aussiemo mix. She loves to play, cuddle, EAT, and go on long walks. She also loves to play with other animals and would welcome your pet with open paws! I currently work remotely, so I am home and available to care for your pet everyday. I take my own dog out every 2 hours for fresh air & a potty break. We also get some fun time in between that with the on-site dog park my apartment has. I have plenty of space in my house for pets to reside comfortably. I also have room to crate them if needed. There is a fenced in back yard where I live that will also be great for some fun running around and zoomies
About: Hi there! My name is Lisa I have a B.S. in Animal Science with a concentration in Animal care and Management!

I have pet sat/done drop ins numerous times for friends & family, and I’m ready to take on your little (or big) loved ones! I’m currently a zookeeper working full-time at The Maryland Zoo! And since I also have my own needy pup I am only able to drop in for a couple hours! I’m available all day on Thursdays/Fridays, Sat-Wed I’m available for early AM drop ins and PM drop ins after 4p While I am unable to host any critters at my home, I am more than happy coming to your home where your pet will be most comfortable! I am very respectful of people’s (and pets) environment, I’m also very detailed oriented and will follow any and all instructions given!
“Erika did a phenomenal job. From the meet and greet where she took time to not only understand my three dogs needs, but my needs as well. My dogs took to herd immediately. I was gone for a 2 day trip. She followed instructions precisely, which really allowed me to relax while gone. When I came home it was as if I never left. The dogs were calm and happy. I will book again.”
About: I’m someone who truly loves animals and takes responsibility seriously. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll always do my best to earn that trust. I grew up with a total of five dogs and developed a strong understanding of dogs behavior from an early age. I also completed a two-week training course with my childhood German Shepherd, which helped strengthen both my skills and our bond. I continue to regularly care for my sister’s dog and have built lasting, trusting connections with the many dogs in my life. In my adult years, I’ve become an avid cat lover as well. I’ve cared for several outdoor cats, providing consistent feeding, shelter, and coordinating vet care when needed. Most importantly, I rescued my current cat from the outdoors, and he now lives with me indoors, happy, healthy, and thriving. I would care for every cat in the world if I could! I work from home on my own time so I can come by mostly whenever works for your pets, with flexibility to meet your pet’s needs! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their established routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure. For dog walks, I provide safe, attentive walks tailored to each dog’s energy level, age, and needs. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, and positive interaction. During in-home visits, I can handle feeding, fresh water, litter box or yard clean-up, medication administration if needed, and lots of affection and play. I keep a close eye on behavior and well-being and provide updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

Adding your animal to my family and always treating your pet like my own with the same love and respect as my own. I am very flexible with others schedules and how late or early feedings are or walks. I take animals very seriously in addition with giving them the same love you'd give them at home during your daily reutine.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Sparrows Point
We’ve been relying on Heather for a while now when we go on vacations. The most recent was this past week when we left for our destination wedding. After we had left for about 2 days, our dog had several accidents in the house that Heather communicated effectively about and made sure to clean up. We will definitely continue to rely on Heather as long as she’s available.
