“Blair was wonderful. She took excellent care of our cat. We were able to travel and get great pictures and updates putting our mind at ease while we traveled. She had great communication from the minute we reached out to her about cat sitting. We will definitely reach out to her again for future travels.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animal since I was a baby! Growing up, I was always asked if I lived on a farm because of all the pets we had (I did not, but it felt like one). This includes large and small dogs, cats, goats, bunnies, guinea pigs, ducks, guinea hens, snakes, a turtle, and fish. Being surrounded by all these animals while growing up has made caring for animals come naturally to me. Currently, I do not have any pets where I live, but I still consider my two cats and a large yellow English lab as my pets! Although I am new to Rover, I have years of experience of pet sitting various types of animals of all ages. I am comfortable with all types of dogs and am very active, so I would make sure to spend plenty of quality time taking them on long walks or when stopping in for a visit :) I also love spending time with cats and other animals, so I would always be free for a drop in! I am currently a nursing student on summer break, so I am free for drop-ins and walks whenever needed, and am very flexible to last-minute requests. I am available mostly during the weekdays at any time, and some weekends as well. When in your home, I will follow your normal routine with your pet closely to make sure they feel comfortable and loved, whether that is long walks around the neighborhood/on a trail, visits to the park, special treats, or anything else they might enjoy.
“Christine is a wonderful cat sitter -- reliable, responsive, and so great with Lilah, who is cautious around new people. Lilah felt safe to emerge and interact with Christine by day 2, which is record time! I can tell Christine loves cats, and I felt at ease with Christine dropping in to take care of Lilah's needs. She was very thorough with feeding, watering, washing the used kitty dishes, and scooping litter.”
“Sam took wonderful care of my pups. I was very nervous to leave them especially since one of them has very special needs. Sam sent pictures at every visit and made me feel at ease. She even won over one of my skiddish dogs, he fell in love in no time. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter!”
“Jalen really helped us out in a time of need last minute, and the kind of help we needed was substantial, for how last minute it was. He was incredibly attentive, communicative, punctual, and positive throughout the entire week. It meant the world to both me and my dad to know his dogs were in such great hands during an otherwise stressful time for us. This was our first time using Rover and what a blessing it’s been, thanks to Jalen. Would absolutely recommend him, and hope to work with him again in the future!”
“Dalton was awesome! He dropped in on cats twice a day while I was on vacation and always made sure to give updates, which I really appreciate! By mid-week both cats were comfortable with him and didn't hide. Dalton also went above and beyond and watered my plants for me!”
“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!”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover and grew up in a family full of pets. As the oldest child, I naturally took on the responsibility of caring for our dogs, birds, and fish. I’ve also helped family members with their pets over the years, just for fun, because I truly enjoy it. Recently, I’ve gained hands-on experience with cats thanks to my current roommate, and I’ve learned how to care for them with the same attention and love I give to dogs. My variety of experience makes me confident with pets of all types and personalities. As a college student, my schedule is very flexible. I’m available most days , and I’m open to same-day bookings and last-minute cancellations when needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, keep water bowls full, monitor for any signs of stress or discomfort, and make sure they’re never left unsupervised in unsafe conditions. I take time to build trust with each pet so they feel at ease. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where they can feel safe and loved.
“Jenna is an amazing pet sitter ! My cat Albert used to hide and would barely allow Jenna to connect with him. He now allows her to pet him and he even purrs because he’s so happy to see her when she comes. I believe this is because of her gentle and nurturing way with animals.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 2. I have looked after dogs, cats, and guinea pigs of various ages since 12. I love caring for pets and have a dog of my own! I also volunteer at animal shelters when I have the chance. I’m working part time so I will have plenty of time to play with your pet! During summer I will especially have loads of availability. I have a crate trained dog who is very friendly and can keep your pet company. I have a spacious apartment but am flexible to take care of your pet wherever!
About: Hi, I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for both dogs and cats! I grew up in a home full of pets and currently have a cat of my own. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I have experience with pets of all ages and temperaments. 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’d love to meet your pet and help care for them like one of my own! Though I work full time, caring for pets is a meaningful and enjoyable part of my daily life. 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.

I’m happy to care for your pets, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and comfort while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or simply companionship, I’m dedicated to keeping your furry friends happy and safe.
“Malina is very easy to work with and a pleasure to interact with. She took great care of my silly pups and I would happily recommend her to anyone. Looking forward to working with her again!”
“Maggie was very sweet and attentive to our dog Nala while we was away on a trip. She treated our fur baby like her own! Thank you so much Maggie!! Will be booking again in the future!”
“Karenna did a great job at cat sitting while we were away, we couldn’t have left her in better hands. While our fluffball is very shy, she did her best to try and bond with her. Eventually got to pet her! Definitely would recommend.”
“A wonderful cat sitter :) Very communicative, gave me detailed notes from every visit and lots of pictures so I could rest assured that my shy cat was well cared for while I was away. Thank you!”
“Amanda made sure my furr-babies were well cared for while we were out of town for a week. She was cheerful, professional, attentive to their needs. I really appreciated the daily updates, photos, and even the chance to FaceTime with my cats. She also brought in the mail and parcels, and reported a roof leak to us (and put a bucket down after cleaning up the water mess) I recommend Amanda without reservation.”

I went away for two weeks to Italy and Victoria looked after my sweet cat Willow for me. She did an amazing job and I didn’t have to worry at all while I was away. She made sure Willow had plenty of food, water, and pets everyday, and also was super diligent with giving Willow her daily medicine. I loved Victoria’s daily reports and pictures of Willow and it gave me a lot of comfort while I was on my trip. I would definitely recommend Victoria for looking after your fur babies.
Christine did an outstanding job caring for my two fur babies. She ensured they always had food and clean litter and consistently provided photos as promised on the scheduled dates and times throughout the week. I highly recommend her services for reliable and attentive pet care.
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!
Jenna is my girl! After each visit, I have more and more pictures for my cat's modeling book. She's also super flexible with schedule changes - I've had to come back early from trips on two occasions and she has been patient, understanding, and super accommodating.
Dalton was awesome! He dropped in on cats twice a day while I was on vacation and always made sure to give updates, which I really appreciate! By mid-week both cats were comfortable with him and didn't hide. Dalton also went above and beyond and watered my plants for me!
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.
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.

Thanks again Sean and Paulina!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 5,493 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Towson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Towson. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
