Highly-rated overnight sitters - Linthicum Heights
“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.”
“Robin promptly responded to all requests and provided a great experience for our Addie. Clearly comfortable working with dogs, has ample space indoors and outdoors for play. This was our first time and was great experience.”
“Brandon was so accommodating and kind when I needed a last minute sitter. He sent lots of pictures and updated me that Molly was doing well. Molly seemed like she had a blast playing with his dog and getting to run around in the backyard”
“Jasmine was great she took amazing care of our puppy Bella! Would definitely recommend her. She sent photos and kept us up to date on how Bella was doing constantly. Bella usually shy but she warmed right up to Jasmine when we dropped her off.”
“Shaun did an amazing job with my dog Goofy. He sent updates and pics which put me at ease leaving goofy for a week long! Shaun is very pleasant and trustworthy and I will be using him for future trips and needs!”
“Marliez took amazing care of Ozzie. He walked with her Husky Wolf several times a day receiving plenty of needed exercise. Oz was received as part of her family. I could tell from the photos he was really enjoying his stay and looking forward to go back. Marliez paid attention to the nuance of my dog's antics to adjust to him. She is a wonderful sitter”
“Fidel and Melissa are really excellent in handling animals. They are kind but set boundaries for the dogs they watch! Their very inciteful in offering their expertise on your animals for the betterment of their care! They have a beautiful family and are very caring people!”
“Ashley was an excellent communicator who provided timely updates and proactive questions about my Yorkiepoo, Luna. Luna thoroughly enjoyed her quality time with Ashley’s family and dogs for a one night. I highly recommend using her services in the future.”
“Megan was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with our two dogs, Nelson and Kodie! Both can be energetic at times and both like lots of cuddles which they both received the entire stay. She followed the schedule perfectly and put our minds at ease! Communication was GREAT! Megan kept us informed of their daily activities from the time they woke up until they went to bed (including mealtimes, play time and cuddle time). She sent GREAT photos (AND I MEAN GREAT) the photos were picture perfect for magazines!! :) Megan was reliable and adjusted to our schedule with drop off and pick up. When the dogs ran out of the canned food, she offered and picked some up for us! How nice! :) At pick up both dogs were happy and well taken care of! BUT what touched my son and I the most is we were going through our pets bag and found Megan had placed a gift bag for Nelson and Kodie that consisted of a card, plush dog toy, and dog treats! WHAT A SURPRISE- We are STILL SMILING!!! :) THANK YOU MEGAN VERY NICE MEETING YOU AND WE ROVER PET PARENTS WILL BE RETURNING!!! :)”
“Kyury took great care of my dog. She took her on multiple walks every day and went above and beyond caring for my dog. Her communication was great and sent me pictures and updates daily while I was gone. My dog came back home very happy and tired from a fun week. I will definitely be using Kyury again!”
“My husband and I used Shane and Brittany’s boarding services for a long weekend and would definitely recommend to anyone else who needs a sitter for their fur baby. Price was very reasonable, especially compared to big boarding facilities in the area. I was a bit worried as my dogs can be a little rambunctious and unpredictable but all the dogs got along great and had a good time. Shane sent many pictures to keep us in the loop. He reassured us that he would keep a close eye on Enzo and Mac as they like to escape/get into trouble. Overall, very pleased and will use them in the future.”
“Amanda and Loki were great hosts to Bella once again. Amanda sent many photos and videos throughout Bella’s stay and very communicative. Looking forward to booking with her again knowing Bella always has a great time.”
“Thank you so much! Geovanna was wonderful! Very communicative and friendly throughout the whole stay, and they made Sunny feel comfortable and cared for. I felt at ease knowing my pup was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Ginnie took excellent care of Koda during his 5 night stay! She sent a lot of great updates and pictures during our trip to let us know how he was doing. It seemed he had a blast playing with all the other dogs! He felt right at home and it was nice knowing we didn’t need to worry about anything while on vacation. Highly recommend letting Ginnie look after your pet and we will definitely be using her services again!”
“Felice T is REALLY ?? awesomeness! I was VERY skeptical about leaving my Tedii with anyone. She is extremely shy and very attached to me as she was a full pandemic puppy with no socialization. I have to say that although Felice was very nice on our first meet and greet, I was still not sure. Her reviews were very positive and promising. However, I was thinking to myself, well my dog is different! (????♀️). I am here to tell you the reviews ARE TRUE!!!”
“I was impressed how Sarah kept me abreast on how my dog was doing and with pictures. That made it more personable and helped to relieve any anxiety I had being away. She showed that she cared and that meant a lot. I highly recommend Sarah for boarding needs.”

“We had a crazy week because of hurricane Milton, but Cheyenne was amazing in making sure our cats were taken care of while we were gone. She communicated with us and our skittish little furball adores her now which is amazing. This is the second time we have booked Cheyenne and we plan on using her again.”
“This was my first time using Rover & first time using someone that was family/friends to watch Elli. Couldn’t have asked for a better choice than Nia! She was exactly on time with each visit and sent the best pics. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Melissa is truly amazing at her job! My cat Mango loves her! Melissa is always looking for special things to do with Mango. I highly recommend Melissa for your pet sitting!”
“Michelle took great care of my cats while I was away. She spent a full hour with them every day, and sometimes even longer, making sure they had fresh food, plenty of water, clean litter, and engagement. I especially appreciated how consistent and dependable she was with the daily care routine. One of my cats can be a little particular and attached to his usual way of playing, but Michelle made sure he was safe, cared for, and checked on. She also seemed to really bond with Emi, which meant a lot to me. It gave me peace of mind knowing they had someone patient and attentive coming by each day. I’d happily recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter.”
“AMAZIG! Fennel was so caring for Olly and left him in excellent care. He seems much happier than in the past when I’ve had him watched by someone. Thank you again, they’re great!”

About: I love caring for cats and understand that every cat has different needs and comfort levels.

I’ll also provide updates and photos so you know your cat is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“Megan was an amazing caretaker of my cat. She was very attentive to detail and her visits provided the comfort my senior cat was longing for while I was away for six nights. I’m looking forward to provide her services whenever I’ll be out of town.”
“Lidia rescued my cat from another sitter/bad situation. Knowing that my cat had been traumatized, she was very sensitive to my cat’s needs, was kind, gentle, and also kept me in constant touch and with as many pictures and updates as I needed to feel my cat was safe. 12/10 - Lidia is amazing ❤️”
“Sam is the only person that we trust to watch our dogs and he does such an excellent job each time. We've been using Sam for years and plan to continue to use him in the future.”

“Elizabeth did a wonderful job caring for my cat while I was on vacation. She was super kind and professional and provided great updates and lots of pictures which I really appreciated!”
“Susan is our go to. She’s basically our pets’ god mother 🤣. Not only is she a phenomenal pet sitter with cute pics and updates.. But her knowledge of animal behavior is impeccable. 100/10 recommend her to pet sit as well as training sessions. She’s been with us since we first brought our puppy home and has made such a positive impact on her behavior. I always tell my friends/family about her!❤️”

I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with walking, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. I’m very attentive to each pet’s routine and personality, whether that means extra walks, extra cuddle time, or a calm and patient approach with shy pets.

If the pet care is in my house, I have a fenced in backyard with lots of space to run around and sunbathe, and also a all weather sunroom, so even on rainy days everyone can get a little peak of the backyard and do some birdwatching! No kids or pets, two adults. If the care is in your home, I'm comfortable with indoors or outdoors playing and also walks.

“Liz and Jeffery were amazing sitters for my sweet Sadie. I was in the area for work and found them to watch my dog during the day. They went above and beyond to make sure that Sadie was comfortable and well taken care of while I was at work. They truly treated Sadie like she was part of their own family. Sadie was always so happy to go to doggy day care in the morning. If I am ever back in the area, I will definitely book with Liz and Jeffery for any type of care they provide.”

About: Hello, I am here to make sure your fur baby is safe and comfortable while you are away. With 8+ years of experience I have learned that every furry friend is different. Different distractions, different tastes, different attitudes but one thing each furry friend can’t resist is love and attention. Some positive energy is all a friend needs to enjoy the company of a new friend. I will cater to our furry friends as needed and instructed by you. Maybe there is a medication time we need to fit in or even some training you guys are working on. I am more than happy to stay consistent with whatever is going on in the daily routine. I work with all ages and sizes. Dogs and cats are all welcome❤️ Pet care fits into my daily routine by being my daily routine haha. I work from home and I have a lot of extra time to provide love and attention. I am practically home 24/7 and thats the way I like it❤️ I am always available if your fur baby wants to tag along around the house. I have crates if a friend needs to be crated or separated in another room. Always keeping a friendly calm environment. I live in a 3 level home with a nice yard for some exercise. Also, the neighborhood has a nice trail for some walks.
“Veronica was amazing! What I truly appreciated was all of the pictures she sent. Every photo showed my fur baby happy and being part of Veronica's family for the day! I am grateful that she has been able to watch my boy and look forward to the next time she and Caleb take care of him!”
“Esther and Yi took great care of Eevee. Eevee was a picky and slow eater but Esther ans Yi was very patient and accompanied her to finish her food. Eevee had a great time with their puppies Milk and Peanut! She can’t wait to have her next vacation in Esther and Yi’s house!”
About: I’m a proud dog parent to Moonie, my very smart 3 year old Maltipoo, and I also live with a 4 year old Pomeranian — so yes, my house is basically dog approved. I love walks, dog parks, treats, and teaching Moonie new tricks. I’ll treat your pup like family, with lots of love, patience, and probably a few compliments ❤️🥰💕 I work in the office some days, but I’m mostly remote and home with the pups. There’s always time for potty breaks, playtime, little backyard zoomies, and cuddle breaks.. so basically, the dogs have a better schedule than we do 😂 I live in a townhouse with a small backyard — perfect for quick potty breaks or a little zoomies session. My neighborhood is safe and great for walks. I always clean paws after potty breaks, keep fresh pee pads available and changed daily, and yes… dogs are allowed on the furniture.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals.

About: I have a big yellow Labrador and I have been taking care of him all of his life! He is 14 so he is a senior and I have watched younger dogs many times also! I am a college student so right now I have the summer off, but I work mainly on the weekends for Howard County as sports tournament staff! While visiting a clients home I can easily make sure the pet will be safe based on what the pet’s needs are! I am also a collegiate athlete so I will be an active sitter/walker for your pet!
“Nia was wonderful with our 5 year rescue. Our dog can be a bit fearful and nervous around strangers. During the initial meet and greet, Nia spent over an hour building rapport and trust with our dog which was awesome. She tried a lot of different strategies and finally got her comfortable enough to go out for a walk, which was no mean feat. Nia was also very communicative - keeping us updated if she was running late. She provided detailed updates and photos on the daily Rover cards which kept us informed and comforted that our doggo was well taken care of while we were away.”
About: Hey! My name is Briana and I grew up with groomers and animal rescuers for parents. I was taught how to birth, wean, potty train, and care for many types of animals. I have worked in my parents grooming shop to help over the years and this included walking and bathing dogs. I have not only work experience and lived experience but also my passion for animals especially being a cat/dog mom myself. I have special experience with senior dogs and puppies, including wound care, medicine needs and dedicated time/attention. I can't wait to meet your furry loved one! I work Mon-Sat 7am-12pm at my fulltime job but am able to house sit and do drop ins around that schedule. I would be leaving around 6/630am and back around 12:30/1pm to handle any care needs. I am unable to host animals inside of my home due to my own cat not being a friendly guy. In my clients home I follow all rules set in place as well as keeping your furry loved one comfortable in their existing routines or whatever the client's expectations would be. I prefer taking written directions just so I have something I can always check back to ensure the most efficient care.

About: Hi, I’m Michael! I’ve spent the past few years helping care for my stepmother’s pets whenever she needed an extra hand. At first, I didn’t think much of it — but over time, I realized how much I truly enjoyed it. That passion inspired me to start offering my pet care services to others! Here’s a little about my experience: • Feeding pets on a regular schedule • Walking and cleaning up after them • Administering medications (pill form) • Refilling water and ensuring hydration • Spending quality time playing, relaxing, and keeping them company I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away.

I take pride in being thorough and dependable because I believe every pet deserves the best care. My goal is to ensure that each pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their owner is away.
About: Seasoned pet owner and handler only 7 minutes from BWI airport! I’ve had dogs and cats ever since I was a child. I volunteered with a cat rescue for over ten years until I had children of my own. We then began to foster dogs as a family in 2019 and have fostered 29 homeless dogs of various sizes, breeds, and ages until adoption. There isn’t a lot we haven’t already encountered. We are often the first call in our neighborhood regarding any pet related questions, and neighbors, friends, and family have relied on us to walk, play with, love, feed, offer doggy daycare and overnight boarding, and administer meds to their pets for years. It just makes sense to open up our services to everyone while I am in between projects! We have bathed, groomed, and trained (potty trained and obedience trained) our own dogs as well as our fosters. Your pet will receive not just one set of loving hands, but a whole family should you choose us! With a five person, four pet household, your pet will never be bored or lacking love or attention. While your pet is in our care you will receive text and picture updates throughout their stay. We know your pet is a member of your family, so we strive to make them feel like a member of our family during their stay. We have a plethora of bones and balls and toys, so they will surely find some favorites during their pet vacation. I’m a self-employed Project Management Professional who is not taking any projects while my children are transitioning to new schools, so I am home all day outside of transporting them. I enjoy taking my pups (and yours, if they are up for it!) with me for car rides if we don’t need to go inside. I like to end car rides with a Starbucks pup cup or at least a treat. Thank you for considering me for the gentle, loving care of your pet while you are away. Regarding safety and our environment, we have a big, fenced-in backyard (a 6-foot privacy fence) where dogs can run and play. We also have two dogs and two dog-friendly, indoor-only cats of our own who have helped foster 29 homeless dogs over the three years before we began Rover. Our dogs like to play and will keep your fur baby company. We treat our furry guests like they are one of our own and they are welcome to sleep in our bed, lie on our couch, and/ or we can crate them to rest - whatever you prefer and they find most comfortable. We have a lot of love in our home to give to your pet. ❤️
“Kaitlyn is super exceptional and awesome! I reached out for an initial request and interview with a set schedule. However my schedule was wacky and I needed more than what I asked for and Kaitlyn helped me out with no issue! Kaitlyn also has shown my Ella so much attention and love within their first week together and I love that! Kaitlyn has gone above what I could have expected and I so grateful! She is a jewel and you won’t be disappointed!!!!”
“Fennel is an outstanding sitter! They always keep me informed about the status of my pet and provide feedback and photos even when it is just for a short walk. They were also extremely helpful and reliable when I booked them for an all day stay. Highly recommend!”
“Ryan was reliable and showed up on time and made an extra effort to get to know my dog and make my dog feel comfortable. I really appreciate Ryan walking Eli and will be booking him in the future!”
About: ’ve spent years caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. Animals naturally feel calm around me, and I treat every pet like my own with plenty of play, walks, and affection. I currently work part-time during weekdays and am available for drop-ins and walks around 1 PM in D.C., as well as evenings and nights during weekdays and weekends. Let’s communicate and I’ll do everything in my power to make it work for you and your pet! I treat every pet like family.

“OMG!! Lanese was a last minute lifesaver before my trip! She was very thoughtful and accommodating towards the task of daily walks for Max. Lanese was always on time and made sure she thoroughly fulfilled the walk. Her daily communication while I was away gave me assurance. She is a 10/10 and I definitely recommend her for any one in need of her services! Will definitely call on again in the future! Thanks so much!!!”
About: • 30 Minute Drop-Ins include potty breaks, feeding, playtime and of course plenty of snuggles to keep your pet happy and comfortable while you're away. I go above and beyond with detailed "report cards", daily photo and video updates, or regular check-ins via text or email. I take the time to build trust with nervous, shy, or reactive dogs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. I work part-time from Saturday through Tuesday, but I'm completely free on my days off and on Monday mornings until 2:00 PM. I'd love to provide companionship and care during those times, ensuring your pet is never alone for long. I always match the owner’s exact routine to keep the pet calm. I provide tailored in-home care for all types of pets, ensuring they stay safe and happy in their own environment. I treat every home with respect and send regular updates so you have peace of mind

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for a long time as I’ve had many dogs myself throughout my life! I love animals so much!!

I have a fenced yard where your pupper will be able to walk around freely! I will also take them for walks around the neighborhood and to the park! I am willing to travel to you as well! My senior dog recently passed away and would love company!
“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!”

“My husband and I used Shane and Brittany’s boarding services for a long weekend and would definitely recommend to anyone else who needs a sitter for their fur baby. Price was very reasonable, especially compared to big boarding facilities in the area. I was a bit worried as my dogs can be a little rambunctious and unpredictable but all the dogs got along great and had a good time. Shane sent many pictures to keep us in the loop. He reassured us that he would keep a close eye on Enzo and Mac as they like to escape/get into trouble. Overall, very pleased and will use them in the future.”
“Amanda and Loki were great hosts to Bella once again. Amanda sent many photos and videos throughout Bella’s stay and very communicative. Looking forward to booking with her again knowing Bella always has a great time.”
“Ginnie took excellent care of Koda during his 5 night stay! She sent a lot of great updates and pictures during our trip to let us know how he was doing. It seemed he had a blast playing with all the other dogs! He felt right at home and it was nice knowing we didn’t need to worry about anything while on vacation. Highly recommend letting Ginnie look after your pet and we will definitely be using her services again!”
“It was great to leave my Gus with a stranger! Gus has never been away from me and doesn't get much interaction with dogs. Malik communicated with me the first night to say things were going well and them followed up the next night with a photo! I highly recommend Malik and will use him again!”
“Karla is the best and my dog is in love! Karla took excellent care of my pup while I was traveling...which allowed me to relax and just enjoy my vacation. She sent so many cute pictures and videos of their adventures and of his epic naps. I already booked Karla for my next trip and Frank cannot WAIT to hang out with her again.”
“I couldn’t have asked for better care for our dog, Frankie, while we were away! He was loved on, spoiled and well cared for and I know he enjoyed his stay during HIS little vacation! Theresa was amazing at communicating and sending photos all weekend which really helped put me at ease. We are looking forward to Frankie’s next vacation at Theresa’s!”
“Justin was easy to communicate with and accommodated my particular pick-up and drop-off needs. He shared photos of Peyton getting acclimated and kept me updated when necessary. I would highly recommend Justin (and Diesel!) for an overnight stay or playdate.”
“They were awesome! So accommodating with the issues we had with our trip and the possibility of our dog being in heat. Kept us updated about the pups nearly everyday and they had a great time! Would definitely recommend them to anyone needing this service and we would use again.”
“Simone was a wonderful and caring host! She had timely communication from beginning to end and sent lots of photos each day. She wasn’t intimidated by our 115-lb. large breed, either, which was a great comfort. We’d certainly trust her to care for our pups again.”
“Tanya was excellent with my girl Xena. Xena takes some time to warm up to people, and Tanya was excellent making sure she was comfortable in her home while she adjusted. Tanya gave me regular photo and video updates while I was away, I had no worries, and knew she was in excellent hands. 110% would use Tanya again for boarding.”
