“I was out of town & there was an emergency with one of my cats that my roommate reported. I reached out to heather to see if she could run over and check on my cat that night (super last minute) and she made it work and ensured that everything was okay! Always super happy with her as our pet sitter ❤️”
“Paige did a great job taking care of our cat, Dommy! Thanks to Paige, we had the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation. We will definitely reach out again the next time we need a sitter!”
“First time we have ever used this Service and Alexandria was perfect. Great pictures, notifications and updates were clear and the stress of leaving our dog at home and as gone!”
“This is the second time Leah has watched my cats while I’m out of town and she is definitely my go-to cat sitter! She is thorough, gives my cats lots of love, sends great pics of them, and my cats love her. I totally trust her taking care of them while I am out of town and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
About: I have lifelong experience with animals. I grew up on a farm caring for cows and chickens, and I have pets of my own, so responsibility and consistency are second nature to me. I’m patient and attentive with pets of all ages, from playful puppies to seniors who may need extra care. I’m also comfortable administering medications and carefully following detailed care instructions. I pay close attention to routines and behavior, and I treat every pet like family while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. I currently work full-time, but I have flexibility in my schedule on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am available Tuesdays and Wednesday starting at 3:30pm. I am also very flexible and available most Saturdays and Sundays. I do my best to accommodate pet parents’ needs and am happy to discuss scheduling options to find a time that works for everyone. I treat every pet like my own, follow routines carefully, respect your home, and prioritize safety so you can feel confident while you're away.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. As a proud cat parent to my own cat, I know how much peace of mind matters when you have to leave your furry family members behind. While I'm new to the Rover platform, pet care is second nature to me—back in college, I regularly helped my classmates with pet sitting, looking after both dogs and cats. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat needs some gentle loving attention, I treat every pet with the exact same care and devotion I give my own. Because I work remotely and part-time from home, my schedule is wonderfully flexible. I am basically free and can easily find time for your pet any day or any time. Whether it's a mid-day walk or constant companionship, we can easily figure out a routine that works best for you and your pet! Safety and trust are my absolute top priorities. Whether I am dropping in for pet sitting or taking your dog out for an engaging walk, I treat every pet with the utmost care and respect. As an experienced cat owner myself, I understand how crucial it is to respect an animal's boundaries, safety needs, and home environment. You can count on me for clear communication, reliable updates, and treating your home and pets like my own.
“Melody is wonderful and has become my official in-home “Basil watcher!” (FYI: Basil is my pooch ☺️) Melody is timely, communicative, takes LOTS of amazing pictures, trust worthy, and most importantly loving with dogs. I have only experienced two (2) Rovers from this app, the first one (1) I knew personally but sadly moved out of the area. Thankfully, I found Melody and she is nothing short of amazing, hopefully I have her for many more “Basil watches” to come! Thank you, Melody for loving on my Basil Mae and being such a great and professional sitter.”
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life and love getting to know each pet’s individual personality. I grew up with a Lhasa Apso for 14 years and became her primary caretaker during her senior years, giving me firsthand experience caring for an older pup and adapting to her changing needs. I’ve also fostered both dogs and cats, including a Schnauzer/Poodle mix and a young cat with medical needs. While fostering, I’ve administered medication, supported recovery, and adapted enrichment activities to keep pets comfortable and engaged throughout different stages of healing. I also have volunteer experience caring for cats and understand the importance of reading an animal’s body language and respecting their boundaries. I’m happy to give an outgoing pet plenty of attention and affection, but I’m equally comfortable giving a shy or cautious pet the space and patience they need to feel safe around me. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, as well as cats, puppies, and senior pets. Above all, I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting throughout the week. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine as much as possible, including their normal feeding, potty, walking, playtime, and medication schedules. I want pets to feel safe and comfortable in their own space, so I follow each owner’s instructions and their pet’s established routine as closely as possible. I pay attention to body language, respect boundaries, and never force interaction with a pet who needs some space or time to warm up. I’ll keep their environment clean and tidy, make sure they have fresh food and water as instructed, and provide walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, or quiet company based on what they enjoy. I’m also comfortable administering medications when needed.
“Sam is the only person that we trust to watch our dogs and he does such an excellent job each time. We've been using Sam for years and plan to continue to use him in the future.”
“Samantha is awesome with my pets. She has come by for last minute drop ins and has always been reliable, friendly, and kind. Would highly recommend her to watch your fur babies!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was young, I love dogs. I enjoy meeting their different personality traits and getting to know them. Dogs make my heart melt. I will take care of your dogs as though they are my own because i know the fear that comes associated since I’ve kept my dog with others myself. I have a pitbull and a chihuahua as well as 2 cats so I love any size, any attitude. They’re all perfect lovable creatures & I really enjoy taking dogs for walks and playing with them or even just laying with them and cuddling. My dogs are my best friends and I would like to make your dogs the same way. They need lots of love attention and affection and I’m willing to provide that when you aren’t able to! I’m currently in school for social work so I have a lot of extra time on my hands, I love filling it with our furry friends. I understand all methods of caretaking when it comes to our pets. If your dog is a jumper, I’ll always watch and make sure they don’t jump over any fences. I am somewhat of a hover parent myself & I keep such an eye on my pets, they’ve never had an accident resulting in a vet visit. I also understand sensitive stomachs & our babies that are dying to eat everything, itching for a vet appt but not on my watch. I multitask well so your pet will never go unnoticed.
About: I have been great around pets and have always been fond of them. My pet care experience began when I was in middle school when my cousins would trust me to take care of their dog when they would leave the house. during the week day I have 3 days available where during the afternoon and evenings I can pet sit. During the weekend’s I have late afternoon, evenings and night availability. I care for pets with integrity however ai also enforce boundaries. I am always going to ask the owner for certain rules when regarding their pets and also ask if i can enforce some rules of my own.
“Megan was absolutely amazing with Oreo! She was incredibly kind, reliable, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving Oreo in her care. She kept us updated throughout the stay and sent plenty of pictures, which we really appreciated. Oreo looked happy, relaxed, and right at home with her. It was clear that Megan genuinely cared about her and treated her like one of her own. We would absolutely book with Megan again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“I would highly recommend Xuan!! My dog was very content when I came home … walked, fed, water bowls filled, and a very happy dog! I could not have asked for a better person to take care of my fur-baby while I was away. Also, Xuan is very respectful of another’s home. I will definitely schedule Xuan again!!”
“I have to say that Ayanna is definitely top notch. This is my first time using this app. And I definitely got lucky the first time around. Has excellent communication! Notified me immediately of updates or any concerns. I definitely felt very relaxed knowing my babies were taken care of. Definitely will be a repeat customer. Have to say a big thank you for keeping all of our babies safe and giving me a piece of mind.”

Pet 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.
Caitlin was fantastic with our two fur babies. One of them required multiple medications which she gave without any issues. She was very kind and caring, spent lots of time with them and gave us very thorough updates. It was wonderful knowing that while we were gone traveling our kitties were in wonderful hands. Do not hesitate to book with her!!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Sparrows Point is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $19 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.

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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
