“Sylvia was great with Tazzy. She was very thorough on our initial meet and great, and had her notes ready when we brought Tazzy for her weekend getaway. We felt very comfortable leaving her in good hands.”
“Kelly was wonderful and sent pictures throughout the day. We so appreciate her diligence in helping us with our dogs. One of our dogs requires daily medicine and an ointment. Kelly didn’t seem to have an issue with it and took wonderful care.”
“Our pup stayed with Anmei for week and came home happy, healthy and relaxed. This was the first time we had ever left her that long but Anmei took such great care of her that we do not have any reservations about doing so again. Thank you, Anmei, for being such a great Bee keeper! ♥️”
“My dog stayed with Jill for a few days over the 4th of July weekend. Jill could not have made it any easier or my dog more comfortable. She has a fenced back yard to allow the dogs to play! My dog hardly noticed when I left. Jill sends timely photos and is always quick to respond to messages. We've already booked our dog's second stay with Jill. Couldn't recommend her enough.”
“Michele is very friendly and attentive to our dogs needs. I can tell she thoroughly enjoys watching after our dog. I've left my dog with Michele multiple times and have always received lots of pictures and updates on how my dog is doing while in MicheleI'd care.”
“Let me start by saying we’ve never left our dogs overnight let alone with a total stranger. We left for 9 days and have 3 dogs and I was so nervous and had a thousand questions and accommodations I needed fulfilled. Samantha was absolutely incredible. If I could give 100 stars I would. My dogs were so loved and cared for the entire time they were in her care. The pictures I got each day were just filled with joy in each of my dogs faces. If I could afford to send them there for playtime everyday I definitely would!!! Two of my dogs had stomach issues on the 5th day or so and she made them chicken and rice and pumpkin for their meals until they felt better. She trimmed their nails. She washed their bedding. I mean what more could you ask for?! Do not hesitate in sending your animals with her. She is the best of the best! I will be sending my dogs to her house anytime we go out of town… worry free!!”
“Daniel did an amazing job taking care of Nova. He was super communicative and always kept us updated, which we really appreciated. You can tell he genuinely cares,Nova loved him. I’d highly recommend using him!”

“Maple made herself right at home and was well cared for. Jacqueline was very accommodating and was able to take her on short notice which was so appreciated.”
“Mary Sue exceeded our expectations!! By far the best Rover experience we’ve ever had and we have had SO SO MANY all over the U.S. She sent us updates with pictures a few times a day around the same time which we really appreciated. She was so sweet and kind and made sure our dogs were taken care of. They loved being with her and I can’t wait for Mary Sue to watch them again next year!!”
“We moved to the area recently and searched for a new pet sitter. My husband and I could not be anymore happier with the care Karen and Sean provided to our Molly! Our Molly felt right at home on her first stay. Karen and Sean took Molly on walks and gave her plenty of playtime. Definitely will be using Karen again in the future ❤️”
“Marcus was very kind, respectful, and communicative. He sent frequent updates and daily pictures. He went above and beyond and made me feel comfortable leaving our baby with him. I hope he is available the next time we need care for our puppy!”
“My 2 girls were so happy with Sandee, i could not have asked for better care of my two spoilt pups! I am very grateful to Sandee for taking my girls for the afternoon, which freed us up to do the necessary things related to purchasing a home. I won't hesitate to go back to Sandee and trust her with my precious fur babies. Thank you Sandee!!!!”

“Coming to visit my 4 cats once a day worked out with multiple cat litters. However, they HID from Kate every day! All ended well and they came out glad to see me after 4 days. I appreciate that she tried and kept them well fed until I returned!”
“Malia did a great job taking care of our 3 cats. We had some obnoxiously complicated instructions because one of the kitties has some special needs. I so appreciate the extra effort and great communication. Thanks so much, Malia!”
“Awesome job overall. No complaints. Sent pictures every check in. Great communication and rates. Went above and beyond by taking care of my mail and trash. Thanks Jacqueline.”
“Hope was great! She accepted the job last minute and won over our normally wary cat. We’re grateful for her level of communication and trustworthiness. Definitely recommend and would love to hire again next time we go away. Thanks!”
About: I fostered cats and kittens for about 10 years. Very experienced on how to take care of them and how cats behave. I have had A cat in my home since I was born and I am not afraid of a cat that may be a little feisty.
“Good communication and updates. Did not try and force my more shy cats to interact with him and waited until he gained their trust. Cats had plenty of food and water when I arrived home 18 hours after his last visit, which I appreciated since I knew they didn't go hungry or thirsty. I will be using him again in July and am sure my kitties will enjoy his company again.”
“Amber was really amazing getting close to my shy kitten, she make her to open up to her playing and giving her love. It was my first experience with cat sitting and it was the best, she even left a cute thank you note…thank you Amber for taking care such a good care of me! ?”
“Jennifer was great! She took care of my cat for a few days, making daily visits. She is very friendly and owns many of her own pets. I would recommend Jennifer and hope to use her again.”
“Lucia is obviously an animal lover. She visited Mac a few times before we left so he would get to know her. He’s very shy but eventually came out and sat on the couch, a big step for him. My home was in perfect condition when we returned. My mind was at ease the whole time we were away.”
“Samantha was wonderful! I had such peace of mind knowing my diabetic cats were being cared for by someone with her level of knowledge and experience. Plus, she managed to befriend my one cat who usually hides from strangers. That was huge. Will definitely book Sam again!”
About: I’ve taken care of basically any type of dog in my decade of taking care pets. Patience is key when meeting new pets to give them time to trust I live and work at a campground, taking care of pets is one of my duties and since I have a house on the property with a fenced in backyard, the dogs are easily able to run free in the yard with no worries of escape. I will make sure all your pets needs are met. No matter how untrusting they may be, with my patience and care your pet will feel loved for
“Steve provides my cats with loving care while I am away. I have one cat who is difficult and can be unfriendly and he has won her over! He sends pictures of her sitting on his lap! He is always prompt and thoroughly cleans the litter box. I love the photo updates he sends while visiting with the cats - I can tell that they are well-cared for. He truly loves animals - it is very obvious from the care and attention they receive.”
“Jen & I and McKinley met before we hired her and it was a terrific meeting! Jen & I have some similarities in our personalities that she pointed out. And true to that, I love that she is descriptive & fun in her writing of her visits plus sent several pics. I really appreciate that! For this first time, Jen visited our little girl cat twice - 1x in pm and 1x the next morning. I would highly recommend & will be using her again when my mom can’t be here. Thanks so much, Jen, apologies this was delayed response. Eileen :-)”

“Samantha is absolutely wonderful!!! She watched our dog at her home for an entire day and he was able to play in her nicely fenced yard. He was able to play with her dogs, which he does not get to do as we live in an HOA. I plan on using Samantha in the future when we need someone to care for our dog. I highly recommend her!!!”
“Jacqueline and William were great! We made a last minute reservation and they accommodated our drop off and pickup times which needed to be flexible since we were going kayaking and uncertain how long it would take. Will definitely use them again the next time we are Trap Pond.”
“Daniela is a marvelous Rover and Jacob was very happy during both his stays. If we ever return to the area we would gladly work with Daniela again. Thanks so much for taking great care of our dog!”
About: **We are unfortunately unable to host unfixed dogs in our home for boarding/doggy daycare.** I have grown up with dogs and cats and have spent many years caring for them throughout my life. I currently have a senior dog I adopted from a local shelter and two younger dogs I’ve helped raise since they were puppies. Over the years I’ve learned how different each stage of life can be, from potty training puppies to supporting the slower pace of senior dogs. I’ve also cared for family pets while their owners were out of town, including both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with dogs of all energy levels. Some love to play and stay active, others just want to relax and be near someone. I’m happy with both. I also have experience with raw feeding routines and daily care. My main focus is always making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule as a stay at home mom which allows me to give consistent attention throughout the day. I homeschool my children but I’m still able to fully care for the pets in my home and keep up with walks, drop ins, and boarding. My days are structured in a way that allows me to adjust as needed so each pet gets timely and attentive care. Pets in my care can enjoy walks in your yard or around your neighborhood depending on what they are comfortable with. We also have a spacious yard that gives dogs plenty of room to move around and stretch their legs. Our home is calm and family oriented. Pets are always supervised and included in daily life. I make sure they feel comfortable, settled, and part of the environment while they are here.
About: I've had dogs all my life and I would be an amazing candidate for your pet. Please consider me to be a part of their life! We have a spaniel of Our Own and her daily routine is lots of play in the morning lots of walks and lots of love and she is a part of our family I'm looking to take your dogs for walks and playing with them. We have a big back yard and lots of toys to play with.
About: ❗️❗️🙂 CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS🙂❗️❗️ I've been working for Rover since 2017, and I can truly say that I adore this job! I mainly specialize in working with dogs and cats, however I am willing to work with different kinds of animals if needed. I'm also a Washington DC native, who has recently moved to Salisbury, Maryland 💛🖤❤️🤍 ⚠️❗️❗️UPDATE AS OF APRIL 2024❗️❗️⚠️: If you are new client and need someone for a extended stay Home Sitting, the longest I will be willing to stay is 3 to 5 days. Once you are a repeat client, I am then more comfortable staying for longer periods of time if needed. Pets will stay on routine by following whatever schedule the owner has set up. If it means getting up early to take a walk, that's what will happen. If I means getting out later in the afternoon for a walk, tha will be fine too. Pet care fits into my routine by me having a very opened schedule. I just moved to Easton, MD, so right now I'm looking to build a new client base here. While watching your pets in your home, I will always make sure I keep a watchful eye over them. I typically like to stay in an area that is open enough where I can see everything, but closed enough where the animal won't be out of site.
About: I have experience caring for dogs that are big or little; rambunctious or calm. I also have a lot of experience caring for elderly and unwell dogs. I currently work full-time from home with a job that allows a lot of flexibility and opportunity to give your pet as much attention as they need/deserve. I work hard to create an environment that makes your dog feel safe and at home, offering inside and outside lounging spaces, and plenty of toys and treats.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. But I’ve cared for my dog Tickle for 12 years now. I trained him as a puppy and care for him in his old age. I can do it all!! I’ve also cared for cats and fostered cats. I can administer medication, give baths, clean litter boxes, go for walks, and more! I am currently out of work and so I’m pretty available through out the week. I babysit sometimes but it’s usually once a week and very random. I am very careful with animals!! I know taking care of my older dog I take it very serious about what he eats. I know different animals have different rules. Also.. ANIMALS NEED LOVE!! I can give them love so they don’t feel lovely, take them for walks, give them treats and food, and anything else that is needed.
“I initially thought Trales might not want to come back home with me, especially since Morgan, along with her husband and their two precious fur babies, spoiled him so much. Morgan was incredibly thoughtful and made me feel completely at ease while she was caring for Trales during the times I couldn’t. Her regular updates, photos, and notes about his outdoor potty activities kept me well informed and helped me stay on track with his routine once I picked him up. As a new resident in Delaware, I truly feel lucky to have found Morgan as Trales’s care provider.”
“Absolutely wonderful! Daniel, and his wife were the absolute best w/ our baby. They were sweet and patient with her, and Azura was right at home with them. I highly recommend them! Many thanks to them for being such great hoomans! :-)”
“Extremely calm and knowledgeable. Knew exactly how to introduce our Boston Terrier to her own dogs. Everything went smoothly. Her home was immaculate and organized. She sent pictures frequently. Our dog looked extremely relaxed and happy in her home. She came home exhausted from playing in their large fenced in yard. I felt very safe, leaving our precious pup with Meghan.”
“Neena responded right away and was available and gracious in regard to my last minute request! Neena was great at communicating and Daisy was happy and well cared for upon pick up! Would definitely book here again!”
“Bella loved her stay and playing with John' pup Maddie. John was awesome! Bella took right to him and he was very attentive to Bella's needs. Bella is older and suffers from kidney disease but that did not deter John. I definitely recommend John and will be using his services in the future.”
“So glad to have found Christina to take care of our dog Lucky during our recent trip to the beach. She's warm and friendly and took care of Lucky as if he were her own. She communicated promptly and clearly. She was so flexible with our vacation schedule and sent us adorable pictures of Lucky throughout the day. I'd definitely rebook with Christina, no question.”

“Lacy was absolutely wonderful with my dog Raven. She took the time to do a meet and greet and asked a lot of questions to get to know my dogs routine. She was on time and provided great communication about how the walks went with Raven. I could see that Raven was well taken care of. I will definately use Lacy again for my dog care needs. Thank you so much!”

About: Hello ! My name is Annie and I am a long time owner and lover of pets. Since I was 10 years old, I have pet sat for neighbors and families when they went away on vacation or other various outings. As a child, this taught me valuable skills on learning to care for our beloved furry friends, as well as gaining confidence in my abilities to care for different breeds. I have carried these skills and abilities well into my adulthood. I would love to be the helping hand that you need for your pet ! I am currently working as a nanny part-time Mon-Fri. I am available every evening after 4pm. Regarding the weekends, I am available anytime that you need me. My weekend availability is very flexible. I would feel most comfortable caring for the clients pet in the comfort of their home because that is an environment that they know and love. Additionally, I do not have a fence at my house so I think that would be safest option for both the sitter and client.
“Marcus was the absolute best with our dog! More than a dog walker, I can say Marcus was his pal!! Obe who is not a jumper/barker/howler, would go crazy when seeing Marcus pull up in his car! And always came back smiling and exhausted. Marcus was also prompt and flexible. He sent us pictures of their adventures every time. Hands down the best exercise friend for our wild guy Obe!”
