“You are so AMAZING Veronica! My Murfy truly enjoyed his time with you and your beautiful babies. Thank you so much for taking great care of him for me while I was away. Due to my horrific experienced, I was hesitated to drop him off with a dog-sitter, but you have made me feel at ease and build that trust again. In addition, you provided me numerous photos and videos of my baby daily, and that was very helpful as you understand my past experienced. You are truly God send, and I can't thank enough.”
“We felt so comfortable leaving Remi with Julia! Remi is under a year old and it was his first time away from us. Julia helped make that experience easy for him and us by being timely, organized, and responsive.

We are looking forward to the next time we need to board him.”

“This was Faye’s first pet sitting experience that wasn’t with a family member, and she has separation anxiety, so I was nervous about how she would do.

Faye also got along very well with her dogs. I would highly recommend!!!”

“Liz and Jeff C provided outstanding and caring support and boarding for my senior Samoyed Sooki. There is not enough space here to describe everything they did to support Sooki and our family. Sooki has substantial and sometimes unpredictable health challenges. Liz, Jeff , and their sons provided EVERYTHING Sooki needed and more.”
“Aida was a wonderful sitter and my dog had a great time with her! He enjoyed time spent in her large yard, many walks, and an overall comfortable stay. She shared frequent updates and pictures, and was happy to adapt to my dog’s routine and quirks. I felt so comfortable and was able to enjoy my trip, knowing my dog was in fabulous care.”
“Casey and Marwa were so great! After a thorough and thoughtful meet and greet, they watched my Lulu for the night while we moved. It was a great first experience leaving my pup with someone not family. They always make sure someone is home with the pups and sent lots of updates. Kevin was a total gentleman and Lulu was thrilled that he shared his favorite spots with her. Lulu can’t wait to go back in a few weeks and I can travel easy knowing she’s being taken such good care of!”
“Imauri is such a beautiful soul and we felt very comfortable leaving Pip in her care. Pip was happy to see us, but you could tell he was sad to say good-bye when we picked him up. We have already pre-booked with her again; I highly recommend Imauri.”

“Emma was absolutely incredible with my two cats, going above and beyond what I had asked. Super communicative and shared some great photos, will absolutely be booking her again!!”
“Taylor was wonderful with my two cats! She was very attentive to both of them and played with them and interacted with them the whole time during her drop-ins, which they loved. My cats need a lot of attention and she definitely gave it to them. She was also able to accept an extra drop in at the last minute on a holiday weekend, which was very helpful to me! I will definitely book with her again!”
“Nathalie was a great sitter for my 3 cats! She was reliable, did exactly as asked, and had great communication. I will likely book her again in the future!”

“SJ was able to fill in for us last minute to watch out three kitties for the weekend (they also regularly check in on our doggy throughout the week). They are super responsive and easy to communicate with, very reliable, and take such good care of our pets. Would highly recommend!!!”
“10/10 absolutely no complaints whatsoever. Came home to the happiest, calmest kitty that has ever been thanks to B. Normally when we come home Carson is very unhappy with us but this time he was calm and unbothered. Every day, twice a day, I received great, detailed updates with pictures of Carson playing and being the most enriched and spoiled baby there ever has been. Moving forward I won’t ask anyone else to care for my three animals besides Bito. I couldn’t have asked for a better, more caring person to care for my furry orange child. Even my plants got watered :’). Thank you SO much!”
“Niko was responsive to messages and had a good rapport with my two cats. He gave medication and supplements, cleaned up well, and even took out the trash. Did a great job.”
“Grace was communicative and responsive, she sent photos and detailed updates daily during her visits. It was obvious from the photos that she bonded well with our shy cat! Highly recommend. We will definitely be calling on Grace again for future visits!”
“Ana was wonderful checking in on our two cats while we were out of town! Even our shy cat warmed up to her very quickly, which says a lot. She was extremely communicative, professional, and went above and beyond when an unexpected situation came up during one of her visits. Our cats clearly loved her, and we felt very comfortable knowing they were in good hands. We’ll definitely be working with Ana again!”
“Rachel was fantastic! She was flexible with scheduling, communicated clearly, and kept me updated throughout. She took great care of my cat, Chuck. Will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone needing her help!”
“As our regular dog sitter, Paige also took wonderful care of my geriatric cat recently. He got his medication on time and his food specialy prepared just the way he likes it. I could tell that he was spoiled from all the attention he got! My kids enjoyed all the photos and updates she sent. Thank you, Paige!”
“Rachel was great! Took excellent care of our somewhat shy and nervous kitties while we were away, and they clearly took to her really well. Would absolutely get in touch with her again in the future!”
“Hadley was a great cat-sitter doing drop in visits for our car while we were away. Our cat is quite shy around strangers and the fact that she warmed up to Hadley says a lot. We loved her updates and photos!”
“Anna was so great watching our cat while we were away. She was excellent at communicating with us and giving us updates after each visit, which gave us so much comfort knowing our cat was being well cared for. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Christina did a great job! She was really sweet with my cat. She had really positive energy and clear communication. I'll definitely try to book her again the next time I'm out of town.”
“Sun was so attentive and caring to my baby girl and was able to administer her medications easier than I usually do 😂 they also provided super detailed cards and took lots of pics 📸 overall. Had a wonderful experience and was able to vacation in peace ♥️”

“Being a travel nurse is sometimes a little more difficult with a dog, finding new dog sitters for George in a new city can be hard since I work 12 hour days. Veronica and Caleb have been extremely understanding and flexible with drop off and pick up times. They are great with communication and send updates/pictures of George frequently. I couldn’t have found better people to take care of him in Baltimore while I work. Extremely grateful for all they do!”
“Shannon is such a sweet person as well as she is very flexible and communicative. She has been available for us in a pinch, takes good care of our pup and sends photos and updates even during short stays. I’m so grateful to have found her!”
About: This young adult is filled with energy, patience and love! I have owned a dog since I was a child and tried to open a mini petting rescue zoo in my moms barn . It worked until I had to actually adult and pay my own bills . I love giving one in one attention and healthy treats . My availability is flexible due to working around my human patients . I value bedside mannerisms and do believe they don’t just apply to two legged friends. I have been known for my cautious and preventative decision making skills ! My temperament is easy going but firm because if not, all paws will break loose! Seriously , I would have 100 dogs at home if possible. I am currently working part time and from home . I have plenty of time to give your fur baby the attention and love deserving ! I have a mini fenced in area in my back yard that my own pup adores. It is just enough space to get the job done and provide leg room. I live in walking distance to three huge parks, and on leash we will have a wonderful time.
“I love Tiara! She was amazing with Queso. She was flexible with my times and very communicative and gave updates throughout the day with Queso. I would definitely use her help again and suggest Tiara for services to others. Thank you so much!”
“Lexi-Saige took to Jessica immediately. She slept with her and hung-out by her side all day. I'm glad my precious girl felt comfortable and enjoyed her day while I was out of town. Thanks Jessica!”
“Poppy gets excited to get to Crissy's house and enjoys her time with Dublin. Crissy is flexible on timing when I've bumped into conflicts, and adjusting recurring days.”
“Elizabeth was absolutely fantastic with our dog Lupin. She picked him and dropped him off every day which was such a help. He also adored playing with her puppy!”
“Kelly took amazing care of our puppy Murphy!! She sent me many photos and videos throughout the day, she took the dogs on long walks and gave them lots of playtime, she made sure my puppy had time to take a nap, and she was very responsive. Kelly and her dog Callie are incredibly sweet and I give them my highest recommendation!! We hope that Murphy will return to play soon!”
About: I have cared for cats and dogs for years. I rescued one cat to later find out she had seizures. She got proper treatment, love and attention, and lived to be fifteen. I am retired and available days, evenings, weekends, and most holidays to meet your pets needs and your schedule to keep on your pets routine. I have a medium size backyard with shade trees and room to play. During bad weather I use the basement for play time and activities.
“Daniel was wonderful with my puppy, Lestat! Lestat came home happy and tired from all the playing, which tells me he had an amazing time. This was his first time socializing up close with other animals, and Daniel made the experience awesome and comfortable for him. I truly appreciate Daniel and his wonderful fur babies for helping Lestat feel safe and welcome. I highly recommend him!”
“Jasmine is great!! This is my first time using Rover, and I am glad I found her. She is super responsible - asking me about daily routine; taking my dog outside for walk etc. Easy to communicate as well! Highly recommend 🥰🥰”
“Our boy was so happy to see Anna and Christian! He yelped his yelp reserved for family members. We always feel fine leaving him there. Lots of pictures and updates, too.”
“Jackson's first day with Megan & Vincent was full of sunshine, friends, & fun! Thank you for all the photos & updates throughout his stay. He came home happy & would like to come back to play again! :)”
“Robin made it really easy to drop my dog off and pick him up. He had a great playdate while we were going out for lunch. Robin sent lots of cute pictures and videos.”
“Jeremy was great! We had to make changes to the reservation, and he was very responsive and made changes quickly. He also did a fantastic job watching Indi, and he provided a lot of picture updates. Thanks for doing such a great job with our dog!”

“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.”
“Lady was excellent - she has trouble entering our apartment due to a front desk error but she was in contact with me and so patient. I'm looking forward to her meeting Lexie in the future for a walk!”
“Sun has been great to work with, and I hope to continue to work with them this year. Fitz responds really well to them, and I can tell they care about taking care of my dog. Thank you so much for all that you do!”
“Emma is such a pro! Our dear pooch took an immediate liking to her. She is calm, confident, friendly, and easy to communicate with. Emma gave Shakti her daily medications with no problems, gave detailed reports on their walks, and texted us when anything came up. We will gladly rebook her the next time we are in town, and highly recommend you give Emma a try!”
About: I have loved and cared for animals for most of my life. I grew up with a large dog who was deeply loved and considered part of the family. Caring for him taught me how to recognize an animal’s needs, understand body language, and approach pets with patience, respect, and compassion through all stages of their lives. Since then, I have cared for dogs and cats belonging to friends and family through regular check-ins, weekend visits, week-long house-sitting stays, and week-long dog-sitting stays in my own home. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and may need time to feel comfortable with someone new or in a new environment. I am patient during that adjustment period and always do my best to maintain their normal routine and help them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I hold a bachelor’s degree in biology with a focus in ecology and marine biology. I also recently completed an internship with Zoo Miami in animal care, training, and husbandry. This experience strengthened my ability to observe animal behavior, respond appropriately to their needs, and communicate with animals using clear, consistent, and positive methods. I am new to the city and currently have full availability including last minute scheduling, and I am excited to build trusted relationships with local pet owners and their animals. Animal welfare is extremely important to me, and I would treat your pets with the same care, attention, and respect I would want for my own. I recently moved to the city and currently have a very flexible schedule. I am available throughout the day, seven days a week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. This flexibility allows me to accommodate check-ins, walks, overnight stays, and last-minute requests whenever possible. I care for every pet according to their usual routine, personality, and individual needs. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions provided by the owner, and I take time to help each pet feel safe and comfortable with me. In a client’s home, I am respectful of both the pet’s space and the home itself. I make sure doors, windows, gates, leashes, and carriers are secure, keep food and potentially harmful items out of reach, and leave the home clean and orderly. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment. I supervise pets closely, give them plenty of attention, and help them adjust patiently to the new surroundings. I understand that some animals need more time and space than others, so I always pay attention to their body language and comfort level.
“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!”
“Corinne was great! She met us for a meet and greet before the walk, and she responded quickly to our questions. She was great with Sadie--a large dog who can be very energetic--and she was a pleasure to work with. I would recommend her to everyone on Rover.”
“Jasmine is wonderful!! I am so happy that I came across her profile. She is friendly, always on time, responsive, and does a great job walking my dog, Arlo. I am very surprised at how well she handles Arlo because he’s very energetic and sometimes stubborn. Nonetheless, he enjoys his walks with her and barely wants to leave when she drops him off lol. I highly recommend Jasmine if you are looking for a great dog walker.”
“Maria has been great for me and my dogs. She immediately won them over during our meet and greet. She send regular updates and photos which are much appreciated while I’m gone. I can also tell she truly cares by the questions she asks regarding the dogs needs.”
“Susan was a BLESSING for me and my dog when we needed a last minute check-in. She was so incredibly thorough and took great care to make sure she fit our routine and connected with Birdy. I recommend Susan to absolutely anyone who’s looking for competent care, a bubbly personality, and patience with an energetic and home-defending fuzz butt!!! We loved her!”
About: I grew up in a home where we always had at least one dog, and I've been caring for dogs my entire life. As an adult, I cared for an elderly dog through his senior years, including managing his medical needs and ensuring his comfort during his final chapter. This taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to recognize subtle signs that a dog needs extra care or gentler handling. I've also regularly cared for friends' and neighbors' dogs over the years. I understand that every dog has their own personality—some are energetic and playful, others prefer calm, steady walks. I take time to learn what makes each dog comfortable and happy. For me, spending time with dogs isn't just a job—it's something I genuinely miss and enjoy. I'm reliable, observant, and will treat your dog with the same care and respect I gave my own. I work from home full-time during weekdays but have a flexible schedule that allows me to take on dog walking during mornings, evenings, and weekends. I'm looking for regular clients who need consistent care, whether that's daily walks, weekend visits, or occasional drop-ins. I live in the Hampden neighborhood in Baltimore and am happy to work with clients in my neighborhood. Walking is something I already enjoy and build into my day, so adding dog walks feels natural rather than squeezed in. I'm reliable about communication and will always let you know if my availability changes. For dog walking, I always ensure dogs are securely leashed before leaving the home and stay alert to their body language and the environment around us. I'm comfortable navigating busy sidewalks, parks, and quieter residential areas depending on what the dog prefers. I follow any specific instructions owners provide about routes, other dogs, or behavioral needs. If watching pets in their home, I'm respectful of the space, follow feeding and medication schedules carefully, and keep owners updated. I understand the responsibility of having someone's keys and entering their home, and I take that trust seriously.
“Tabitha was great with Riley.. I knew from the first meeting and Riley’s response to her she was a good choice. She took the time to care for her as well as play. She even added a day last minute which I really appreciated! I would definitely book with her again anytime I need a dogsitter.”
“Christina did great with our anxious pup! Very responsive and sends great updates / photos. She helped put our rescue dog at ease. Will be booking again in the future”

“Ahhhmazing!!! Michelle will absolutely be our go to dog sitter! Oliver is still a puppy so he is high energy and still working on his potty training. This was our first time using rover and his first time away from us. Michelle took care of him above and beyond our expectations! She sent us model pictures of him daily (much better than he lets us take of him, so we have new profile pics of him, lol!) She provided daily updates with the pics too, all of which gave us complete peace of mind! We couldn’t have had a better experience and that made our vacation that much more relaxing. We are extremely thankful to Michelle for treating Oliver like her own! 😊”

“Keiwana and her gorgeous family took amazing care of our 4 month old puppy Rosie. They were so kind and patient - Rosie made more than a few mistakes but they were so understanding and graceful about it. Keiwana also sent us so many great pictures of Rosie throughout the weekend! Rosie made some new friends with their sweet dog Bailey and two little girls, and she didn’t want to leave when we came to get her! (but when we did get back home, she was so tired and napped like an angel). We would most definitely use them again (but maybe when Rosie’s older so their beautiful house doesn’t get any more puppy damage!!) Thank you SO MUCH to Keiwana & family!!”
“Yukia was awesome! My dog left her house very happy. She took him on walks and he got to play with other dogs. She also worked with me and added an extra day when I realized I messed up the schedule. I highly recommend Yukia.”
“When I picked up my furkids, they went straight to sleep. I guess that is a good indication that they had way too much fun at Tarina’s doggie playhouse. Will definitely be coming back. Tarina agreed to have a meet and greet prior reservation. Thank you, Tarina and Tony.”
“Molly was an amazing sitter! Vienna is elderly with multiple medical problems, and Molly couldn’t have been more patient, understanding, and attentive regarding her needs. I felt so relaxed having her with Molly for her overnight stay and Vienna was so happy and comfortable with her stay. Thank you Molly!”
