About: I’ve had my own dogs for as long as I can remember and in addition to that, family and friends always come to me first when they’re in need of someone to care for their pets. I do not consider my own pets as a simple house animal, I refer to them as my children and I will have the same care and affection towards your fur babies I am available 24/7. I can attend to your pets needs 7 days a week and I have a very flexible schedule I am always open to working around any schedule so please feel free to reach out. I care for pets in my clients home by making sure I am aware of what they are doing at all times to ensure their safety.
“Lina took wonderful care of our two cats! She is prompt to reply to messages and very reliable. Lina took time each visit to play and interact with the cats - even when the power went out in our house! We will definitely book her again.”
“Sean and his partner Paulina were quick to respond to all messages and showed up on time, both to our meet and greet and to all three cat-sitting sessions while we were out of town. Our two babies were well fed and watered, and the more social one got some attention and play from Paulina too. The shy guy had a cleaned litter box to use when he came out of hiding after they left, but before that they even watered the flower baskets on our porch as a heat wave was starting. Thanks again Sean and Paulina!”
“Karenna is a reliable and thoughtful sitter. She made my cats feel like they had a friend when I was away. She cleaned up, asked questions along the way, and got my shy kitty to come out for rubs and pets. I will definitely use her again- I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’ve had dogs since I was a baby, love dog sitting, and volunteered for three years with Passport Rescue at Petco, where I spent hundreds of hours caring for cats. I’m attentive to routines, patient with different personalities, and take pride in keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy. I treat every pet like my own and truly love what I do. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m flexible and happy to work with pet parents to find times that fit their pet’s normal routine. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I carefully follow feeding instructions, routines, medications or care guidelines provided by each owner. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and always make sure pets are secure before entering or leaving the home. I respect both your space and your pet’s routine, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: I had been taking care of my family’s chihuahua and poodle growing up, and I was a sitter for my friend’s Munchkin cat for one year. My friends would always come to me to check on their cats whenever they were out of town. I’m currently taking care of a kitten of my own. I’m currently a full-time grad student, but I’m usually free after 6 pm during weekdays. I have more availability on weekends, and I’m happy to accommodate to the client’s schedule. I have a young kitten in my house right now, but I fenced the entry to her floor. Your fur babies can either snuggle with her or can be housed separately on other floors.

Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some quiet company, I’m committed to providing a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for your pet.

I have a cat of my own whom I care for every day, so I’m familiar with the responsibility and joy that comes with pet ownership. I’m organized and flexible, making sure to dedicate quality time to provide attentive care, walks, and companionship for the pets I look after.

“This is the second time Amanda has sat for my cat, Lou. He doesn’t just allow anyone to touch him, but she is able to. As long as Amanda stays with Rover, I will always ask for her service. Thanks a bunch!”
About: I have had about 5 dogs in my life, all of different breeds. I love being around them, they are all sweet and unique in their own way! I am available during the weekends, as I do work through out the week. It allows me to properly focus on other tasks, such as taking care of pets. I can do walks, as I like to go on a daily walk myself. I would feed pets however many times they need to be fed.
About: I love taking care of dogs of all shapes and sizes. My Rottweiler recently passed away and I am looking to continue caring for animals outside of my own. A number of people have trusted me with walking their dogs, housing their dogs and kitties, and even bathing them. I’m happy to help you next! I am a work from home student, so I will have all of the time in the world to give your pet-child all of the attention in the world! Although my yard is not fenced, I live in a safe neighborhood and will never take my eyes off of your pet. I will always keep their leash with me, seat belt secured, and doors locked.
“Lisa did a fabulous job with our dog. We were away for a week and used Lisa during the second half of the week. We knew our dog was very stressed and anxious and warned Lisa she would be in for a challenge. Lisa really went above and beyond to make my dog feel safe and to help her blow off some stream. Lisa sent lots of updates and a ton of pictures. I would happily use Lisa again!”
“We are so glad to have found Marwa to help take care of our pup during the day. She is truly passionate, caring, and knowledgeable about dogs. She is constantly going above and beyond to help Lolli become more comfortable and confident with her. Marwa is lovely, and we felt an immediate connection with her (maybe not Lolli quite yet!). I feel completely at ease having her enter our home and provide such extraordinary care for Lolli. Her patience, dedication, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. We feel very lucky to have found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker.”
About: As an avid pet lover, friends and family turn to me to help watch their furry family members when they’re away from home. I’ve been a trusted dog sitter and walker for years and hope I can help you with your pet needs! I’m a stay-at-home-parent with local family support so I can dedicate time to your pets whenever needed! Mornings, evenings, and weekends are best, but with enough notice I can cater to your pet’s needs throughout the day. While pet care in my home is not currently available due to a reactive dog of my own, I am perfectly happy to provide most services to your pet in your home. I’m intimately familiar with all collar and leash types, crates and play pens, “puppy pads,” medications, bathing, and more. With the right tools and proper communication, rest assured that I will meet every expectation as your pet sitter!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Towson
Once again, a wonderful experience with Blair. She (almost literally) went the extra mile on her dog walks, letting Angel take her a bit off the beaten path so Angel could join her play group each morning. Not every Rover.com pet sitter is so thorough in her services and communicative with the owner. I feel very fortunate to have found her.
Catherine has made traveling stress free for our family, and we’re so grateful we found her! We first booked her last minute over Memorial Day, and she was incredibly accommodating, calm, and thoughtful with both us and our 9 year old Border Collie/Lab, Raine, who gets a serious case of the blues and anxiety when we leave. Catherine met Raine exactly where she was, and by day 3 she was all tail wags when Catherine showed up. Her detailed updates gave us peace of mind, and we knew right away we’d book with her again. On our most recent trip, Raine was excited to see her from the start, which says everything about how caring and fun Catherine is. She also handled an unexpected encounter with an unruly dog during a walk with good judgment and care, making sure Raine and everyone involved stayed safe. That kind of attentiveness means so much when you're trusting someone with your pup. I feel completely comfortable leaving Raine in her hands, and I’d recommend Catherine in a heartbeat. We already have future trips planned and will absolutely be booking with her again!
I had never left my dog overnight and was somewhat nervous. Shelby came in the evening and the morning and played w her, took a walk, fed her and thoroughly documented it all for me.. such a blessing! she also came over to meet Holly and me before my trip. Shelby put me at ease - which was priceless and Holly loved her. I will definitely re-book with her!!
Excellent communication all the time, on the button My dog loves her….matter fact I’m home now and normally my dog Lexy would not go out with anybody if I was here. However, with Susan might Lexy gives her the respect she’s due and follows her without hesitation
Sarah was amazing with our puppy Billie. She was always on time for the check-ins and left great notes and photos to help let us know what was happening and how she was doing. She went above and beyond and will definitely reach out to her again the next time we go away. Thank you Sarah!
This was my first time ever leaving my dog with someone outside of family, so I was honestly very nervous. My dog is extremely shy, very attached to me, and doesn’t warm up to people easily. But Amy made the entire experience feel so safe and comfortable from the very beginning. One thing I truly appreciated was that she took the time to meet my dog before the actual booking day and never forced interaction. She allowed him to approach her at his own pace, respected his space, and made him feel comfortable naturally. Seeing that level of patience and understanding meant so much to me. While I was away, Amy constantly kept me updated with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. The photos showed my dog relaxed, laying next to her and even cuddling with her, something he normally doesn’t do with strangers. That alone told me everything I needed to know about how caring and trustworthy she is. She was punctual, responsible, respectful, attentive to every detail, and genuinely cared about making sure my dog felt safe and comfortable the entire time. I could tell she truly loves animals and treats them with so much patience and kindness. I’m beyond grateful for the care she provided and I would absolutely recommend Amy to anyone looking for someone reliable and compassionate to care for their pet. She exceeded all my expectations and I would 100% book with her again.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Towson stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
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 Towson 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.
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.
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 Towson with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
