“We’ve used Trenton for house sitting for our 3 dogs, and have been pleased both times! We’ll continue to book him when we need care for our kiddos. Great communication and our dogs were very well cared in their regular routine.”

“Christina is fantastic! Quick to respond and very friendly. She sent lots of photos and kept me updated during the visit. I will definitely be booking with her again!”

“Caitlin helped us out last minute and was extremely accommodating to our senior dog with anxiety. She shared pictures and her response times were great. We will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I enjoy spending time with animals, making them feel cared for. I am patient and attentive, willing to take the time to know each pet and their needs to feel comfortable, loved, and cherished. I have only spent two years pet sitting both dogs and cats, but I enjoy every moment with them. I stay at home most of the time right now, pet care will be my priority and I will plan my own schedule around the pets I am taking care of. I will provide care in the pets home where they feel comfortable in their familiar environment, and I will carefully follow each owners instructions about their pets schedule and needs.
About: With 11 years of personal pet care experience, I understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and needs. I’ve cared for dogs of different ages, including senior dogs who need extra patience, gentle handling, and attention. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family member. Whether it’s a relaxing walk, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I strive to make every visit comfortable, safe, and enjoyable. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, respectful of established routines, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in caring hands. I treat every pet with the same kindness and consideration I give my own. Pet care is already an important part of my everyday life, and I enjoy making time to care for animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding routines, and quality time with pets throughout the week. I understand that every pet has its own schedule, so I do my best to work around their established routines. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, an afternoon visit, or some extra companionship, I’m happy to discuss arrangements that work for both of us. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications when applicable, and daily routines. I make sure doors and gates are secured, pets are supervised appropriately, and their environment remains clean and comfortable. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, energy level, and individual needs. I believe communication is essential, so I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos throughout each visit. My goal is to give every pet a safe, positive experience while giving their owner peace of mind.
“I have a problem eater 15 year old Yorkie. Matthew worked patiently with my little guy, coaxing him to eat. This was also the first time my Yorkie had been without me in all his life and he was very upset at first. Matthew worked to calm him down and ultimately Laddie was happy to be with his new "brother". He sent lots of pics and videos. He was great; I highly recommend this young man.”


About: What started as a one-time house-sitting favor for a friend 3 years ago turned into an almost bi-weekly job that I learned to love. I’m an assistant manager for a camp-resort, so I am known for my energy, dedication to any job, and kind heart. I’m looking forward to finding new opportunities to care for other people by allowing them to peacefully enjoy their time away, knowing their home and (pet) family is taken care of. I’m a manager of a campground resort, which allows flexibility in my schedule. I’m new to the area and therefore have loads of time in my hands to fill with caring for your pets and home! I’m used to watching pets in all seasons - over holidays, for multiple weeks, and with only one-days notice. I’m here to help! After having been a house + pet sitter for a few years, I make sure I am fully aware of all of your pet needs. I ensure I know who and where your vet is, how they interact with other pets, and will communicate with you as often or little as you’d like while you’re away. I’m an energetic homebody, so can cater to all kinds of pet needs.

About: I've rescued several wild animals over the years as well as volunteered for the Peninsula ASPCA. I have 5 pets at home as well I think the world of and each are highly unique and need different attention. I've had pets my whole life and have always had Siberian Huskies. I cannot imagine a home without a furry friend and believe they always deserve my 100% because they are the best parts of what makes a house feel livable for me. Learning body language and specific sounds since I was just learning to walk that its my second nature. My best friend having guinea pigs for years too, I've learned how to even care for smaller exotic pets I do the cat pan and brush my pets and make sure their water fountain in clean and running with the filters. Clip their nails when long and play and treat them in training. The cats get proper cuddle time and the dogs fluffed and hugged. For my cat Bucky he need quiet time with little stimulation in my room away from the others. I will treat any pet as my own and learn what their balance is so they have the best care I can offer. Learning their personalities and quirks to ensure their safety, my safety, and certainly their comfort
About: I have had pet care experience for 11 years. These few skills I have will help ensure you that you have selected the best person for the responsibility of looking after your furry best friend. Which are; stamina (when I’m walking with your dog I always match there energy) punctuality (I maintain a consistent schedule and is always on time), organizational (I am very organized especially for the comfort for your pet), honest, experienced, great customer service, and a good relationship with your dog. Unlike most sitters and walkers, I am not just in it for the money but for the happiness and love I will be able to give you pet while your away. “Dogs are not our whole lives, but they make our lives whole”- Roger Caras
“I am so glad we found Anna to take care of our dogs while we’re away. She sent me daily photos, updates, and communicated any questions or concerns in real time. I have a puppy who is very anxious/skittish around new people. Anna recognizes her body language and works with her to meet her needs at her comfort level - by the end of Anna’s stay at our home, my puppy was willingly sitting in her lap! She doesn’t do that for ANYONE so to me this is an excellent reflection of the way my pets were cared for while in Anna’s care. She did a great job following their routines and went above and beyond to keep them happy while we were gone. My home was treated respectfully and in the same condition I left it when I returned. We already have Anna booked for another stay and look forward to working with her again in the future.”

“Laura is a dream! From first contact through our entire house sit, she was always prompt with her responses and never left me hanging. She was great with my peculiar, needy Sphynx cats and not only followed our care instructions exactly, but went above and beyond for my two cats! They absolutely loved her from the first day, which is so rare. I got frequent updates multiple times a day and the best pictures and videos of them. She left our house extremely clean and we would be insane to not book her anytime she is available!”

“Anna was great! This was the first time she took care of Abby and she was wonderful. Took lots of pictures and kept us up to date the whole time. Would definitely use Anna again.”
“Arianna was great with my puppies 😊. She walked the puppies every day and was very patient with my senior dog. She communicated with me often and responded quickly when I reached out to her. I’m very happy with her service and will definitely book her again ☺️.”
About: Dogs have become a true passion of mine. I provide more than feeding and walks; I focus on understanding each dog’s behavior, body language, and individual needs. I’ve worked extensively with puppies and adolescent dogs, helping build confidence, good manners, and positive social skills through structure, patience, and consistency. I carefully monitor eating habits, energy levels, and overall health while dogs are in my care, and I keep owners updated with photos and detailed communication. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, or simply relax, my goal is to provide a safe, calm environment where they can feel comfortable and secure. My schedule allows me to give dogs plenty of individual attention throughout the day. I plan my routine around exercise, structured play, rest periods, potty breaks, and enrichment rather than leaving dogs unattended for long stretches. I strive to maintain each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. Safety is always my highest priority. Every new dog is introduced gradually based on temperament and comfort level. I have experience using crates appropriately for rest, meals, and decompression when needed, and I carefully supervise all interactions between dogs. If your dog prefers quiet one-on-one attention, I’m happy to accommodate that as well. I believe every dog is an individual. I take time to observe behavior, communication, and comfort level so I can provide care that fits each dog’s personality rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

About: I have experience with all animal types including dogs, cats, horses, livestock, birds, pocket pets and some reptiles. I am a licensed vet tech so I am also comfortable medicating animals that need it. I have 7 dogs and 3 cats, all of which are friendly with other animals. I will treat your pets as if they are my own no matter if they are being boarded or just going for a walk. Please feel free to ask any questions regarding your pets and their needs while you are working, vacationing, etc. I can care for pets early before work, mid-day and late after work. On weekends my schedule can be more flexible depending on what activities I have going on. Any dogs that come into my home will be treated as if they were my own. I have a fenced backyard for the dogs to play in. Boarding dogs will have their own room to hang out in.
About: I'm a huge animal lover. I'm very outgoing and love dogs! I grew up with four dogs (all different breeds), so I am very used to taking care of fur babies. I am very flexible and easy to work with. I am great with dogs of all sizes. I will walk the dogs as many times throughout the day as possible. I love interacting with dogs and taking them for runs. I love buying toys and playing various games with them. I love to snuggle with them and make them feel loved. I will take as good of care of them as I would my own fur babies. I hope we will get to play together! Pet care is part of my daily life—I naturally structure my routine around spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule, so fitting in walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins comes easily. Making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for is something I prioritize every day. In both my home and a client’s home, I care for pets as if they were my own. I stick to their normal routine, offer lots of love and attention, and make sure they always feel safe and comfortable. I keep their space clean, give fresh water, follow feeding instructions, and make time for play, cuddles, and bathroom breaks. I also send regular updates so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for.
“Robert spent a weekend caring for our fur babies. We had a meet and greet prior to his stay and he did a thorough assessment of our animals needs to make sure he provided top notch care. Over the weekend he sent pictures and updates. I knew my fur babies were well-taken care of.”

Emily was an absolute joy to have as a housesitter and honorary member of the family while I was away for a brief trip. She took excellent care of my three fur babies and I appreciate the daily messages in photos. I’m looking forward to my next booking with Emily, which is already on the calendar.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Wicomico walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Wicomico maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Wicomico 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!
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.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
