“Morgan is FANTASTIC! We ended up booking on short notice and Morgan made an effort to meet us, the dogs, and cat first before taking care of our babies alone. The dogs took to Morgan so quickly! Morgan was very attentive and communicated frequently. I was able to relax knowing my guys were in great hands! Morgan went above an beyond what was asked when taking care of our 2 shepherds. You can tell Morgan has a passion for animals and we will definitely be booking again!”
About: Welcome to Paws Paradise! We have been out of the game this past summer because we just welcomed our newest baby boy to our family!!! We have two daughters and now one boy and everyone in our household loves animals! We have an Australian Shepard and lab mix (rescue dog) and 1 year old Poodle. We’ve always loved taking care of animals. They get a lot of attention at our home. All of our dogs get along great!! While you are away, I make it a point to send pics and videos of your fur babies. Some days depending on how funny your little one is, you might get lots of pics and videos. But if you’re ever missing your little friend, shoot us a message and we’ll send you a little something to put you back at ease. This is one of my favorite parts, so we get creative with the pics/videos!! Please let us know if you have any questions😁 We are a military family and believe in doing things right the first time. We request that you set up a meet and greet with us unless there are extenuating circumstances in which you need us right away. With us already having dogs at our home, we want to be sure that you, us, and your dog feels that this is the perfect fit❤️. We care for your pets just as we care for our own…with love and compassion. Our teenage daughter is a dog babysitter in training and loves to help wherever we step out so your fur baby will almost always have a friend. We have a large fenced yard and two fur babies to keep your little one company. We can crate them if you wish. All depends on what works best for you/us. We strive to follow their regular routine as much as possible to keep them as comfortable as possible. We are not CPR/First Aid certified because safety is VERY important to us.
“Christina, thank you for taking good care of Kiko. When I got home he was so happy and I can see he had fun with you. I will definitely reach out to you again when we need to travel. Excellent care ?”

“Taylor was awesome!! She responded to a very last minute request. She communicated with me well and sent updates during her visit. She is 100% recommended to anyone in Southern MD who needs a sitter or home drop from someone who cares about your pets as their own. Thanks again Taylor!”
About: Retired and ready to stay busy. I enjoy meeting greeting and interacting with dogs. I love being able to get dogs outside for a nice walk. I'm happy to do house visits for feeding or checking in on your dog, cat or other pets. I have experience with puppies as well as senior-age dogs. I am recently retired with a flexible schedule. Enjoy spending time with fur babies while staying active. Open to walking and / or daily home visits. I have a fenced in yard with a doggie door. Dogs have free reign of our house. They are fed am and pm and usually walked at least once per day.
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16, including my own. I’ve had experience with dogs of various sizes and mixed breeds, and I believe my seven years of hands-on experience makes me well qualified to care for your beloved pets. I genuinely love animals, so this is something I would truly enjoy, while still maintaining a high level of professionalism. I’m completely open to any rules or boundaries you have and understand that every owner has their own way of caring for their pets. I’m more than happy to learn and follow whatever routines work best for you and your animals. I'm not currently working a full-time job due to the job market tanking a bit so I have nothing but free time and I'm always available and I don't go to school but I do exercise a few times a week so if you need someone to be outside and active with your pets, I'm the girl for you I live in an apartment styled house with a ton of outdoor space and it's very pet friendly and even has spaces for pets to roam around
“We highly recommend Krystin. She went above and beyond when it came to taking care of our dog, even getting her a little goody. She was very flexible with our schedule and her communication throughout the week she took care of our dog let us relax throughout our vacation. Will be using her services in the future for sure.”

“Asia was super friendly and even got my shy/cranky cat to interact with her! She was quick to respond to any messages I sent too. Did everything I asked and more. I would definitely hire her again.”

“Jessica is a kind, knowledgeable and attentive sitter. We felt very comfortable leaving our fur babies care in her hands. We look forward to utilizing her services in the future.”
About: I have 3 dogs who are absolutely spoiled rotten!!! I love dogs so much-if I could have more I would. I grew up always having a dog so, I have lots of experience looking after them. Pet care is part of my daily routine as I have my own dogs-3 to be exact, they run our entire world. We spoil them! I care for my pets by providing them with adequate exercise, food and water. Lots of love and play time..of course cuddles too. I care for them like my children!
“Alani has been absolutely amazing with Yuki. She stopped by for a meet and greet to make sure my pup was comfortable with her and she understood our needs. Alani has showed up on time, been highly responsive, and shown incredible care on her daily drop-in visits. While she will be going off to college soon, Yuki will miss her very much, I highly recommend Alani.”
About: My name is Kanishia and My dog is super fun. If your New to rover, ask me for my discount code. Unfortunatly I no longer accept males. I ONLY accept FEMALE dogs due to the Males constantly mounting Bindi and marking territory with Urine in my home. I only have 1 important ask. Your fur baby be clean when she comes..❤️ thanks so much. (Dogs not allowed on bed, couch/furniture) I was alongside my mother learning and helping with our pets as a child up until my teens. We had iguana, ferret, gerbel, thumper the rabbit, 3 dogs and 2 birds.This is where my love for animals (especially) dogs came about. *I do NOT allow dogs on the furniture so if your dog is allowed on the furniture this will not be a good place for them, as they will not understand why they can't do what they are comfortable doing. I would like to know if your dog is food aggressive, crate trained, potty trained. Active or chill. I would welcome the opportunity to host your dog in my home. I'm from Hampton, VA and have been in Maryland for about 2 years. Im a counselor at an elementary school in DC. I have a goldendoodle female who has lots of energy. There are so many people being cruel to animals and I take joy & pride in playing with, comforting and teaching tricks to dogs. I work part time so I have a good amount of time to dedicate to your fur baby.i feed on the schedule you give to me. Out for most of the day and crated when I'm away or at night. Dogs are fed separately and offered a meet & greet first. Fits well with my schedule as I don't work full time currently. Dogs are walked 3x sometimes 4x daily. It's my pleasure to have your dog with bindi & i I seperate dogs when feeding to create safety. My yard is unfenced but often times dogs like to sunbathe on deck. Dog would never be in the backyard off leash

As always Carlos and Anna are great!! My little one gets really anxious when I'm away but they always make sure that he gets extra cuddles and give me detailed updates on any behavior changes. Their care gives me peace of mind when Im out of country and have to leave me little one. Thank you both as always for your patience and care
Cindy was amazing! She is so positive even in the most challenging situations. My dogs love her and they were well taken care of. I had no worries because it was obvious her love for animals and I will definitely use her again. Thank you Cindy from Cookie, Cash, Candy, Cane, Crunch, and Cassius! Yes she took care of 7 dogs! :-)

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Waldorf stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Waldorf choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Waldorf with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 95% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
