“Maria is excellent. Always on time. Communicates great. Always happy and enthusiastic. The boys love her and its not easy walking three dogs at a time.”

“Lady was wonderful! She came over to meet our dogs before walking them the first time and they loved her. Lady was great about keeping us posted on their walks (including sending lots of pictures) and was super responsive. We will definitely be asking her to walk the dogs again!”

“Lina is highly responsible and loving to our dog. She is an excellent communicator and goes the extra mile to make sure our dog is comfortable and well taken care of. I have total confidence in Lina's care.”


“Ivan is the best! Our dog can be reactive and Ivan did a great job of being very patient and calm despite our dog being quite mean. Would highly recommend!”


“Bob and his son Bobby were the best! Completely reliable and capable. My dog, that I have trouble managing, was easily handled them. I am very impressed with the quality of this service and they are first on my list for the next time.”

“SJ is wonderful to work with. The notes they provided after the daily walks meant so much to me while I was away from my fur-baby. Highly, highly recommend.”


About: I'm a lifelong pet lover with extensive experience caring for cats and dogs of all sizes, having owned and fostered pets ranging from small 4-pound toys to large 180-pound dogs. As someone who has grown up surrounded by animals and currently cares for 5 pets at home (2 cats and 3 dogs), I bring genuine compassion and practical expertise to every pet-sitting situation. I'm comfortable with all types of pets and can provide reliable care including administering medication, basic grooming for pets under 50 pounds, and daily routine maintenance. Whether you need overnight stays, daily visits, or emergency backup care, I offer trustworthy, personalized attention that ensures your pets receive the same loving care I give my own animals while you're away. As a freelance artist, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your needs. I'm always available for last-minute requests and have a reliable car for transportation. I provide regular updates on your pet's wellbeing and can handle extended visits when needed. Whether you're traveling or have a busy week, I can help with daily care, special needs, or longer-term arrangements. My schedule works around your lifestyle, not the other way around. When we first meet and you introduce your pet to me, we can discuss and agree on the best care plan that works with your pet's existing routine. I focus on minimizing stress and disruption by adapting to your established schedule and preferences, ensuring your furry family member feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.
“First time ever hiring a dog walker to check in on my pet while I was away, now I feel silly for always boarding my dog. Elise was incredibly professional, caring, responsive, and punctual. Got back to me same day to schedule a pre-meet to make sure I was comfortable before reserving the booking, took good notes to learn about my and my pet's needs, then did exactly what she promised to do. Even immediately checked in with me on the correct course of action when something happened I hadn't anticipated. I can absolutely see why she as such a high rating and star status! Will definitely try to book with her for any future pet care needs!”

“Zana is an incredible pet sitter/walker who we’ve used multiple times. Our dog loves when she comes over and she sends many updates and pictures. We look forward to using her in the future.”

“I recently moved here from PA with my dog (Atlas). New state, new job and I really needed a pet sitter while I was at work. I won't lie - I was scared to trust someone with my fur baby. After the first week of walks I could tell Atlas really enjoyed being around Crissy and that genuinely made me at ease. Crissy is very reliable, communicates well, and most importantly is attentive when caring for my Atlas. She goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care of my fur baby. One instance was when I misplaced his raincoat and Crissy came to the rescue- she let him borrow a raincoat and made sure he didn't get soaked. No words can describe my gratitude. I genuinely believe Crissy is top-tier and deserves all the praise!!! Atlas and I highly recommend :)”


About: Thanks for checking out my profile! I am a registered veterinary technician with over 15 years of experience. I offer dog sitting in my home in north Baltimore City, and I really love what I do! I enjoy having my doggie guests, and I enjoy being able to provide a service for pet owners. I take pride in providing personal, individual care for all the pets that I watch. I treat my petsitting dogs just like I'd want my own pets to be treated! I am a registered vet tech (although not working in a vet office right now) and have also been petsitting for almost 20 years. I take my responsibilities as a pet sitter seriously, as I know that I am being entrusted with the care of your beloved family member. Safety really is a number one priority with me, and I'm a stickler about fences being shut or keeping dogs on leashes outside. I actually go outside with any guest doggies, whether they're in the fenced yard or I'm walking them on a leash, rest assured they'll be supervised. I usually only watch one dog at a time unless they're a pair from one family (although there are times when there's a little overlap, say at the beginningor end of a stay, but ill let owners know if this is the case) My yard is fully fenced in. Good for a game of fetch, and a convenient potty break, but for some more excersize, Chinquapin Park is very close by. Pets are welcome on furniture, and there's a comfy dog bed on every level. And I know it is hard to leave your dog behind, so I send updates, texts, pictures so you know how everything is going! As far as my pets, I only have one personal pet left, my big fat scaredy cat named Meow. We had to put my beloved dog Buddy to sleep a few years ago, but I was blessed to have him for over 16 years. So now it's just me, the cat, and my husband, Jarett, who is also a huge animal lover and great with dogs. We have a 6 year old daughter, Josie, as well, although she is only here on weekends right now because she is going to school near my parents house, in the county, and she stays with them during the week. Josie isn't your typical loud, hyper 6 year old, however - she is pretty quiet, quite laid back, and always extremely respectful of my client's dogs. I started teaching her young how to act around animals :) I do ask that your dog be house-trained and free of fleas, and up to date on basic vaccinations. I want to make sure I maintain a safe and clean environment for your pet and any others that I watch :) I provide a laid back, very loving, and safe home-away-from-home while you're away. Thanks for looking, and I hope to hear from you! About this sitter: I am a 40 year old registered veterinary technician, although not currently working at a vet's office. I have a lot of experience in the veterinary field, mostly dogs and cats, but I've worked with exotics and horses as well. I've been a veterinary technician virtually my whole adult life and have a degree in this field. I've run dog training classes, and have experience grooming as well. I have been petsitting for nearly 20 years, and have a number of clients, both through work and through Rover, that I've had for years. I take pride in getting to know each dog so that I can provide personal, loving care to your pet. Why I love dog sitting I think pet-sitting is a win-win scenario! I love what I do, I love the dogs that come to stay with me. I'm happy to provide what I think is a valuable service - giving your dog a safe, loving, knowledgeable home as opposed to a loud and uncomfortable kennel. I've been doing this for years, and recently Rover.com has put me in touch with even more Baltimore dog owners that want loving and trustworthy care for their furry family members while away. About my yard Chain link fence, standard height (somewhere between 3 1/2 and 4 feet) Grass yard that I keep clean. Yard is secure and I'm always outside with the dogs, so everyone should be contained and safe, but if your dog is a jumper or a real houdini then someone with a six-foot fence is probably better. My experience administering medication Because of the work that I do, I have ample experience in medicating pets. I am certified in pet CPR, I can administer insulin as well as monitor diabetic animals. I'm experienced and very comfortable with injections, oral medications, sub-q fluids, eye and ear medications, and topical meds. I am currently working only part time and often from home, so I am available virtually all the time to provide not only love and companionship, but the best possible care for your pet. I have a warm and cozy, clean household to relax in, a fenced yard for playing and potty breaks, and live close to Chinquapin Park for walks and runs.
About: I have taken care of cats since I was 7. I also had my first dog at the age of 9. I’ve spent my whole life taking care of animals as if they’re my siblings. As of right now, I am a taking a gap year from full-time university, so my schedule is flexible. I play water games with the dogs and keep them company during their stay. I love to spend time with animals like best friends would. I enjoy cleaning food dishes and feeding the pets. I’m currently a university student studying for a Bachelor of Science in Architecture and planning. I also work part time in the summer, but I can always work around my schedule to accommodate your pets :) I have a fenced backyard as well as cameras that overlook the front, back, and garage. I ensure safety by locking doors and keeping a constant eye on them. I also like to be in the room with the pet my entire visit.
“Britney is amazing! She was super flexible in scheduling a meet-up that worked with my work schedule and Potter loved her!! (My cat, Nugget, even came out to play!) After walking my pup, Britney even played with him, too! Potter would definitely recommend!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Upper Northwood
I had a knee injury and suddenly needed a dog walker fast and Ivan was extremely responsive. Ivan has been so great with my Pittie, Kai. Kai has a neurological condition - NCL4A that makes her a bit wobbly and need some special attention and stability on walks at times and she also loves walks. Ivan has been really understanding of her needs and helpful with her and she gets so excited every morning for this walk.

I have booked walks with Lady N. several times including a long 2 weeks vacation for my 10 year old lab/pitbull mix. Lady is great with Bordeaux! The communication was great and I received updates and many pictures during their walks, which made me feel at ease while I was gone. I definitely recommend Lady N!

Michelle has been super communicative and prompt when responding to requests. She's kind and patient with Artie abd has been more than flexible with her time. Artie has a very small circle of people that he trusts, so generally it takes a long time for him to warm up to new friends. Michelle was able to put the leash on him and walk him immediately, which is no small feat. Michelle will be house sitting for us soon, and it makes me feel relieved to know Artie will be in good hands.

We loved having Michelle sit for Penny! The whole experience was completely seamless. Michelle followed Penny's normal walking routine perfectly, so Penny barely noticed we were gone. She is super responsive and wonderful with updates. We will absolutely be booking her again!
