Personalized care for your dog or cat - Fairmount
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Fairmount
“Daniel and his wife did an exceptional job with my dog Bandit. I was so nervous, Bandit is 8.5 years old and had never been with anyone alone. He did phenomenal with him giving me updates and texts with photos. Made me feel at ease. I had just recently moved to the area and knew nobody had to be an away for a long weekend which required a need for Bandit to be in care. This was just what I was looking for. Very conveniently located also. Would recommend and plan to book again in the future.”
“Daniela saved the day when I needed a last-minute sitter on a work trip! Winston LOVED staying with her. Daniela texted updates daily and was a great communicator. Winston was so happy hanging out with her dogs and family, I highly recommend Daniela!”
“Kate was wonderful and Mr. Peanut settled in quite quickly with her AND her two own dogs. Peanut is very picky at who he likes and doesn't like. But he got along with the pack and as a doggie mom, that made me feel good. I will definitely use Kate again. As far as the Rover website, there looks to be some logistical issues. On my screen, it told me Kate was 82miles away, but a 30min drive. Please get that fixed. Rover for me was hard to use. I like simple. But Rover has all these twists and turns. For example, I was not allowed to just message sitters. I was forced to pick dates. I had been looking for a new babysitter for Mr. Peanut since we just moved, but Rover made me wait til I needed someone asap, which made my experience stressful. Not good. We should be able to meet and talk to these folks before we book. After all, we are parents, and we all should be allowed to interview these sitters much like we would if they were our human children. Thankfully Kate worked out. But it could have gone a lot smoother. Thanks Kate (and daughter!)”
“Dawn is fabulous with our girl! She is a great communicator and sends pictures and updates. She was also very flexible when we asked about picking her up a little early. This was a much better fit for us than a kennel. Our girl really neess to be around people and Dawn spent a lot of time with her. Thank you so much! See you again soon!”

“This was our first time ever using Rover as we just acquired a rescue puppy. Jodi was the perfect match for our fur baby. She understood his need for walks and his “zoomies” (periods of over excitement). I could not have picked a better sitter. During our absence she sent us pictures and updates which made us feel near him. I cannot say enough great things but rest assured she will always be our go to person for Maverick.”
“Jaclyn was absolutely amazing, the best Rover experience we’ve ever had! Not only was she able to accommodate our last minute request, but she truly went above and beyond. We were sent amazing holiday photos with our dog Wrigley and she even made an ornament with his paw print. Couldn’t recommend more and we are so fortunate to have had our dog stay with Jaclyn!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and my family currently has four, so I’ve had lots of hands-on experience caring for them over the years. I’m a huge animal lover and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same care I give my family’s dogs. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, and I’m happy to make time for pet care around my classes and other commitments. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the care and time they need. I will always treat your pet and home with care and respect. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, crate, and daily routine instructions, and I’ll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention and can also send updates and photos so you know they’re safe and happy while you’re away.
“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.”
“Beth and Ron did an amazing job with Apollo. They are caring animal lovers and put a lot of thought and effort into Apollo's care. They gave valuable updates and feedback. I'd use them again anytime.”
“Nichole took care of our Senior yet active dog for a night and whole day! Nichole updated us all the time and sent pictures on how our baby was doing. Will recommend her and definitely will book her again in the future!”
About: I have loved dogs my entire life, and grew up taking care of them from a young age. I have attended many dog training classes with my family dog, and understand that every dog has its own personality and needs. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding schedules and administering simple medications, and play time. As a pet sitter I am dependable, responsible, and I pay attention to detail. I will treat your dog as if they are my own. I am currently a college student at Salisbury University so I have one to two classes in the morning and am free throughout the day to go for good walks, play time, and am available to do drop in visits. I also live in a house with a large fenced yard and I offer dog boarding. I provide safe, reliable dog care. I have reliable transportation and lots of available time during to the day to either come let your dog out for a good walk, or I also offer dog boarding at my own home that has no other pets and has a large fenced yard.
“Highly recommend Anna. We (and our dog Jayla) met her a couple weeks before we boarded her and Jayla seemed very comfortable with her. She's a natural with dogs, for sure. While we were gone Anna updated us and sent some pictures. When we picked her up she was happy and you could tell she had a good time there. Will definitely schedule with her again!”

“Amy was absolutely awesome! She was so patient and caring with my extremely shy cat. She gave great updates throughout the week I was out of town, which was a great source of comfort. Super thanks to Amy for being so reliable and super friendly!! I recommend her to anyone needing a fantabulous sitter for their pet!”
“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.”
“Carla is so gentle with Leo and sweet. She truly has a heart for animals and I feel so blessed to have found her. Leo and I look forward to Carla assisting us in the future.”
“Jill was/is fantastic! The cat is skittish and shy, but she managed to coax her out of her hiding spot for some interaction time. Jill has an easy going and engaging personality and a long-standing affinity for animals. There is no doubt she will be my choice for any future needs! Highly recommend her. Thanks, Jill!”
About: As an owner of two beautiful tabbies, cats are my number one pet. I understand cat body language and could entertain a cat for a whole day. Administering medications, cleaning litter, and overall care for cats is no hassle for me!
About: I was a cat sitter during my first few years of high school. My neighbor was out of state and asked me to take care of her cat. During this time, I would visit at minimum, three times a day to make sure the cat had food and water, had some playtime, and to clean and freshen the litter box. The owner had specific instructions for feeding that I would follow and prepare accordingly. Like dogs, I have a special place in my heart for cats and I always make sure their needs are fulfilled.
About: I love to love on animals! I make sure they are well lover and cared for while you are gone! And make sure they get everything they need. It distracts me from life and makes me happy! And most days I can do in the afternoon morning whenever is good for you and your family! Have a leash on them and keep a good eye on them at all times! Go outside when they go outside so you can watch them!
About: Most of my life our family has had at least one cat. The personality is never the same as I have come to learn. I recently house sat for an individual with 5 cats, one of which was at least 15 years old who required a lot of care. This care included administering medicine via mouth which was successful during the 2 week long stint. I’m very good at reading body languages and strive to provides cats with the most comfortable experience possible. After all it’s their world, and we’re built to serve them 😜
“Anna was terrific. Everything went very smoothly, and the cats obviously had a fine time. They have been looking around this morning wondering when their new friend is going to arrive.”

About: Im a very active person and an avid animal lover. I was raised with animals from dogs to cats. Communication is key. I have experienced with many animals, and well equipped with knowledge and patience for any animal you have. Meet and greet are not necessarily but greatly preferred.

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.

“Met Anna at the nearby dog park and hired her the next day to walk my 1yo Pittie mix who has some major energy he needs to get out! When they got back and I saw how happy Charlie was I knew I’d found the perfect match with Anna. She was amazing so I hired her the Remaining 4/5 days Id be here. We just bought a 2nd home on the island and I’ll be using Anna every day we are here:)”
