“Thank you so much for taking great care of Lexi :) The pictures each day were appreciated and we had no worries going away. We will be using you again soon. Thanks again!”
“Best sitter! Molly had a great time running and resting at Kate’s house for the weekend. She had an extra crate for her when I forgot mine and also kept me updated with Molly’s day. I really appreciated the short turn around as my planned sitter canceled last minute and I was scrambling to find a reliable fix! Thank you Kate!”


“Daniel was a absolutely great with Cassius and sent us updates throughout the day. The communication eas great and i could tell Cassius was comfortable with him. We'll definitely be using him again in the future”

“Anmei was amazing with Lucas! She sent lots of pictures and videos, and he looked so happy the whole time. This was our first time being separated, and Anmei made it so easy and comforting. We’ll definitely be using her from now on. We highly recommend!!”

“Denise did a great job with our puppers! They warmed up very quickly to Denise and her family. Everyone in the family were very affectionate with Ollie and Daisy, so I know that made them feel right at home. I had no concerns leaving our dogs there and would use her again in a heart beat!”


“I found Kelly in a moment of desperation when I needed a last minute sitter for my fur baby. Not only was she quick to respond but also came to meet my recent rescue before hand. I had never used a River sitter before and after meeting her in person and learning about her vet tech background I was confident she would take great care of my girl. She sent me daily pictures and updates and took excellent care of Zoya for me while I was away. I will 100% be booking her again!”

“We were a bit apprehensive about leaving our 2-year-old Cavapoo, Ollie, with a sitter for the first time, but Sylvia put our minds at ease the moment we met her. She is incredibly caring and attentive. I loved receiving the photo updates showing Ollie happy and enjoying his stay—it meant I didn't have to worry about him at all! I can’t recommend Sylvia enough for anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.”

“Maggie was in excellent hands with Jodi. I received daily updates and pics. Communication with Jodi was clear and immediate. She was also very friendly and personable. I would definitely utilize Jodi's services again in the future.”

“Marcus provides both attentive care for our dog and is highly professional. He is prompt to respond and sends pics throughout the stay, and so easy to work with. I highly recommend his comfy home and personal care for your special pet.”

“Alexa was the BEST! She went above and beyond my expectations. She constantly kept me updated, sending pictures and updates about my dog, Benny, throughout the day. She was born for this job and excels at it. She has a true love for your pet and treats them as her own. I would trust her with any of my pets and will definitely be using her in the future. She is wonderful and I couldn't recommend her more!!”

“What a beautiful family! Jessica thank you for welcoming my girls into your home. You made an overnight stay stress-less! Thanks for all the pictures and updates! Take good care and we’ll see you again.”

“Jill T. is a wonderful sitter for our Pomeranian Lily. I never worry when Lily is with her! I would recommend her to any of my friends and family if they were in need of a dog sitter.”


“Our senior dogs were well taken care of! Communication was easy and location is conveniently close to the beach. Will use again! Thank you for your wonderful care!”


“Brenda did a terrific job watching over and caring for our dogs. She asked good questions, showed genuine concern for their care and kept us in the loop. She has a great place for them to run around in a secured fenced-in yard and a spacious home for them to play. I really think you can’t go wrong with her.”

“Heather was amazing in looking after our shy cat Shiva! Besides the frequent photos and daily updates, she went above and beyond in doing extra items while we were away for over a week -- truly appreciated! This is the first time using Rover for drop-in visits and will definitely be using her services again for future trips, based on her availability ❤️”

“Heather did a great job in taking care of my three cats!! My cats were “meowy” happy with her!! I would definitely recommend Heather in taking care of your fur babies!!”

About: Experience with multiple breeds of dogs. My heart is owned by our 5 boys and our 3 furbabies 16 year old Siberian Husky named Lola, a 2 year old husky/german Shepard mix named Skye and a 13 year old Australian shepherd named Apache . Firmly believe that pets are family and that it’s up to us humans to provide them with the best life possible. Without a doubt, I will treat your pet family members as if they were my own, with an abundance of love and attention. I know what it’s like to have a good pet sitter and I’ve been very fortunate to know what it’s like to have a peaceful vacation without worries, let me be the one to ease your mind when it comes to your pets care. I’m always doing something doggie related. In addition to Rover we also offer dog grooming so we stay pretty busy with the pooches every day of the week. I have crates to accommodate all sizes of pups for those that are crate trained. Those that need a human bed to sleep in, I’ve got plenty of those as well. Huge yard for lots of exercise.

About: My family always had at least 2 cats while I was growing up. I helped feed, water, clean litter boxes, play, and just love them. Today, I have 3 cats; 9 year old Luke, 6 year old Pixie, and 5 year old Kiki. My cats have very unique personalities. Luke will only drink from a source of running water, so we are always turning a sink on for him somewhere in the house. Pixie has been through an ordeal in her short life. She was able to get outside and travel approx 16 miles from home. She was gone for about 6 months, but I never gave up. Constantly checking my home shelter and all the surrounding ones. It paid off because she was found, taken to my home shelter, and I was reunited with her. Kiki is the most loving, cuddly, attention-seeking cat I have ever dealt with. She just wants love and pets. My cats live in "luxury". Fresh food and water every day, litter boxes scooped daily and changed weekly, toys, treats, you name it. I would love the opportunity to d the same for your cat(s) while you're away on vacation or just at your daily 9-5.

“Heather is very attentive and makes sure that she gives clear solid photos of your furry friends. She is very helpful and makes sure all of your animals needs are met. Very reliable. Please book her! She's such a wonderful support to animal care.”


About: I’ve taken care of neighborhood pets for over eight years. I have watched dogs of all ages, sizes, and needs. I have also watched dogs with high medical needs such as epilepsy and am comfortable giving medications. I have experience with everything from drop-in visits to multiple-month stays! In addition to dogs, I am also comfortable taking care of cats, goats, and chickens and have years of experience with them as well! I am currently in physical therapy school, so my weekly schedule varies. However, I am free in the late afternoons and evenings, as well as weekends. My schedule can be relatively flexible around classes, as I am not currently working! I love spending time playing with dogs. If your dog is full of energy, I am more than willing to take them for walks and play with them to get some energy out! If your dog is more laid back, I love a good snuggle! I am comfortable crating dogs, as well as having them roam freely!
“Samantha was everything we could’ve hoped for and more. She was not only early for every visit, but she communicated with me when she would show up, when she would leave, sent pictures on every visit, and followed the requested schedule to a tee. This was our first time using this app and Samantha has certainly set the bar. There’s no question I would highly recommend Samantha for your pet sitting needs.”

Open to all animal requests just ask! Im a full time optician and part time cook. With plenty of notice I will take off my parttime job to care for your babies. Your pet will be loved as family.

About: I am a former vet tech, now Pet Emergency employee who now runs my own side business caring for animals in a way that is beneficial to the owner and pet I work at the local Pet Emergency Center, care for clients pets as needed, and have pets of my own including reptiles. Also take surrendered animals that need a second chance. I offer in home services to the clients to cut dog/cat nails, and care for animals overnight/drop ins so that they do not have the stress of monthly vet visits/boarding.
About: I’ve been dogsitting for family friends for the past 4 years. I am willing to come stay at your house and keep your animals in the comfort of their own home while you enjoy your vacation or time away. I grew up with both a Rottweiler and a Pitbull and as an adult, my husband and I own are Bernedoodle who is the light of our lives. I currently work at the hospital full time as an RN. I am able to be up early with your pets and handle feedings and letting them out to the bathroom along with some active time before work and after I get off I can spend the rest of the evening at the house making sure your pets are given attention and well taken care of. I have off most weekends! I will care for your pets in your home as best as I can to keep your personal and normal routine. I am always willing to follow any instructions given to keep your pets comfortable while you’re away.
About: I have had several animals in my lifetime, some of my families growing up, and several of my own. I have owned a total of 5 dogs. All of my dogs have been/are rescues. I currently have 3 "puppies" that range in ages between 1-2 years old. I got two of them when they were only 6 months old and I have done all of their training on my own. Animals of all kinds have a very special place in my hear and I work hard so my fur animals can have a better life. Remember, your animals only experience what you allow them to. Let them experience life the way we do, they are only here for so long. I work from home therefore, I am available at all times. I can bring my work to your home if I need to be there for an extended time or I can leave my work at home and come take care of your animals if it will be for a shorter period of time. My dogs experience everything that I experience in my home. Such as roaming freely, having access to food and water at all times, being able to roam in the yard independently, and most importantly, they sleep on a tempur-pedic mattress at night with their humans.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. My family has always had pets, and I’m a natural pet lover. About two years ago I got my first domestic bunny, and now have two (of course Humphrey needed a bunwife). So I am experienced in bunny care as well. I am so excited to gain your trust by treating your fur babies like my own, and promise to make you feel secure leaving them with me! My schedule is pretty flexible. I babysit for a family in Preston three days a week but the times vary. It evens out to about 18/20 hours spread throughout three days so if your pet is here during those days they may be here without me for a few hours. My fiance does help when he’s off of work so as long as he’s home they would have him too. I own my home with my fiance, and we have a fenced in yard. The fence is about half of the height of your typical fenced in yard, so if your pet is curious and you think they would jump it we can accommodate a lead for your pet to be on just in case. This way they can still get the exercise and freedom a fenced in yard would provide. If your pet is used to going on walks, let me know so we can keep that same routine here. All outside playtime will be supervised as well. Our home contains a very friendly lab who is two and very high energy and gets excited easily, an older chihuahua mix (around 14 years old) and a middle aged chihuahua mix (6 years old). All pets in my home are vaccinated. I am also a nursing student and my boyfriend is a police officer, so we like to think this helps make us trustworthy and professional people who will give you peace of mind while you’re away.

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: A dog is never just a pet — they are loyal friends, beloved family, and a pure source of unconditional love. I care for every dog as if they were my own, with warmth, patience, and devotion, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and truly loved while you’re away. While I’m studying for my accounting degree, pet sitting is a wonderful fit for my routine — it allows me to care for animals while balancing my studies. In my home, pets enjoy a cozy and welcoming space. The living room is spacious, with two comfortable sofas by the windows where they can relax and watch the world outside. Out back, there’s a yard with trees — perfect for fresh air and a bit of playtime. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly cul-de-sac, providing a safe and peaceful environment for your furry friend.
About: I provide reliable, attentive care that’s tailored to each pet’s needs and personality. I have a 15 year old Yorkie mix and a 1 year old Yorkie. My experience includes caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets, so I understand everything from basic training and routines to giving extra patience and comfort to older animals. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, and keeping pets active, safe, and loved while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure owners feel at ease with regular updates and check-ins. I plan my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure pets aren’t left alone for long. I’m flexible during the week and weekends, which allows me to stick closely to your pet’s normal schedule and give them the time, supervision, and care they need. I create a safe, calm environment by following each pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and always supervise pets. In your home, I respect your space while keeping your pet in their normal routine. I also provide updates and can handle special needs like medications.

“Daniela took great care of Jacob. She was always very communicative, responsive, and was a gracious host to our pup. We appreciated the many pictures and great updates. Thanks!”
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.

“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! :-)”

Otherwise I take him on a walk with a leash around our neighborhood or at our neighborhood dog park.

We have plenty of availability to take care of your fur-babies!

We can crate your dog upon request. Our dogs love 4 legged company!

I know what it’s like to have a good pet sitter and I’ve been very fortunate to know what it’s like to have a peaceful vacation without worries, let me be the one to ease your mind when it comes to your pets care. I’m always doing something doggie related. In addition to Rover we also offer dog grooming so we stay pretty busy with the pooches every day of the week. I have crates to accommodate all sizes of pups for those that are crate trained. Those that need a human bed to sleep in, I’ve got plenty of those as well. Huge yard for lots of exercise.

I have also watched dogs with high medical needs such as epilepsy and am comfortable giving medications. I have experience with everything from drop-in visits to multiple-month stays! In addition to dogs, I am also comfortable taking care of cats, goats, and chickens and have years of experience with them as well! I am currently in physical therapy school, so my weekly schedule varies. However, I am free in the late afternoons and evenings, as well as weekends. My schedule can be relatively flexible around classes, as I am not currently working! I love spending time playing with dogs. If your dog is full of energy, I am more than willing to take them for walks and play with them to get some energy out! If your dog is more laid back, I love a good snuggle! I am comfortable crating dogs, as well as having them roam freely!
About: I love animals of all sorts, and have had experience working in an animal science program for two years. On top of that, I have had experience with taking care of family and friends pets of different species, like rabbits, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I am currently a student at Salisbury University, but currently home in upper Delaware for Winter Break. I am available in the area from 9 am - 11 pm.

I currently have 3 "puppies" that range in ages between 1-2 years old. I got two of them when they were only 6 months old and I have done all of their training on my own. Animals of all kinds have a very special place in my hear and I work hard so my fur animals can have a better life. Remember, your animals only experience what you allow them to. Let them experience life the way we do, they are only here for so long. I work from home therefore, I am available at all times. I can bring my work to your home if I need to be there for an extended time or I can leave my work at home and come take care of your animals if it will be for a shorter period of time. My dogs experience everything that I experience in my home. Such as roaming freely, having access to food and water at all times, being able to roam in the yard independently, and most importantly, they sleep on a tempur-pedic mattress at night with their humans.

I will do the same for your dogs too!

“I found Kelly in a moment of desperation when I needed a last minute sitter for my fur baby. Not only was she quick to respond but also came to meet my recent rescue before hand. I had never used a River sitter before and after meeting her in person and learning about her vet tech background I was confident she would take great care of my girl. She sent me daily pictures and updates and took excellent care of Zoya for me while I was away. I will 100% be booking her again!”

“Maggie was in excellent hands with Jodi. I received daily updates and pics. Communication with Jodi was clear and immediate. She was also very friendly and personable. I would definitely utilize Jodi's services again in the future.”

“Marcus provides both attentive care for our dog and is highly professional. He is prompt to respond and sends pics throughout the stay, and so easy to work with. I highly recommend his comfy home and personal care for your special pet.”

“Alexa was the BEST! She went above and beyond my expectations. She constantly kept me updated, sending pictures and updates about my dog, Benny, throughout the day. She was born for this job and excels at it. She has a true love for your pet and treats them as her own. I would trust her with any of my pets and will definitely be using her in the future. She is wonderful and I couldn't recommend her more!!”

“What a beautiful family! Jessica thank you for welcoming my girls into your home. You made an overnight stay stress-less! Thanks for all the pictures and updates! Take good care and we’ll see you again.”

“Jill T. is a wonderful sitter for our Pomeranian Lily. I never worry when Lily is with her! I would recommend her to any of my friends and family if they were in need of a dog sitter.”


“Our senior dogs were well taken care of! Communication was easy and location is conveniently close to the beach. Will use again! Thank you for your wonderful care!”


“Brenda did a terrific job watching over and caring for our dogs. She asked good questions, showed genuine concern for their care and kept us in the loop. She has a great place for them to run around in a secured fenced-in yard and a spacious home for them to play. I really think you can’t go wrong with her.”

“Vy provides a safe, loving, and enriching home for our dog to feel comfortable while we are away. We had flight complications while traveling and she was very accommodating alleviating any additional travel stresses related to our dog’s care.”

“Hands down one of the best sitters out there-period! Not only did Samantha agree to board my two dogs on short notice, she went above and beyond to care for one of them who unexpectedly obtained additional medical needs the night before my travel. What could have been an incredibly stressful (or non-existent) trip became one of the most stress-free trips due to Samantha’s care. I received daily updates (with photos/video) and I’ve never seen my dogs so happy away from home. She’s got a spacious fenced-in yard and a well-maintained area for the dogs to play and stay. I couldn’t be happier or more thankful for Samantha’s care. Book her now-you won’t find anyone better!”

“Jermaine was awesome! Our dog, Reese, is getting older and I feel like a traditional kennel is a little too loud & stressful for her. Leaving her with Jermaine gave us the peace of mind we needed. He was communicative and positive. She came home happy & healthy. We are very grateful and will absolutely use his services again”
