This is our first experience using a dog walker with Rover and we are very pleased with Destiny! We needed someone to walk our dog 3 times a day for two days. She arrived on time for all 6 walks and sent pictures of each walk. We will definitely use her again in the future!

About: I grew up taking care of my own cairn terrier and years of being the go-to dog walker for three dogs in my neighborhood, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet, and will make sure to keep them feeling loved and comfortable while you're away! I'm currently working part-time, so I am available during the weekdays from 9AM-9PM, and Saturdays as well to come visit your pets! With advance notice, other times can be coordinated as well. When I'm in a client's home, I always take care to follow their routines, make sure the environment stays clean and safe, and double checking the doors every time I go in and out.

Shannon has been such a godsend since she started walking our dog over a year ago. She genuinely cares for our dog, has great intuition about any ailments or injuries he's having, and brings him so much joy! Shannon is a bright spot in our lives and we really appreciate all she does.

I knew from the meet and greet that Tolu was going to be great. He has a very calm demeanor that my anxious little boy sensed. He took time and walked my dogs way longer than the 30 min request. Definitely rebooking!!

About: Starting at the age of 11 up to today I have been trusted to take care, bathe and feed animals in my neighborhood, friends and family. I’m well at observing and giving medication if needed for older pets but also can be playful and help with the puppies/kittens as well! I currently work at an animal hospital which helps in my knowledge of feeding and taking care of pets. I work part time, mainly mornings but I’m willing to work around that if needed. I am available on weekends and holidays to take care of your pets needs. I can usually make something work around my schedule. At my house, there is acres of land and space. I have two very friendly dogs which I can either keep away or keep your pet company whichever is fine. For the clients home, I’m willing to work with whatever situation/care is needed

Jeanette is such a blessing to me and my little guy Romeo. She took care of him for four days while I was traveling out the country. Jeanette is kind, friendly , reliable . professional, trustworthy and great with dogs. Romeo loved her immediately. Jeanette perfectly followed the care plan that I created. She left my home very clean and even was flexible to add on an extra day of care due to flight change of mine. I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!

About: It can be so stressful trying to find someone to care for your furry loved one(s) while you’re away; I would love to make it easier for you! I’m an animal lover through-and-through (if you’ve seen it I’ve probably thought about wanting to make friends with it) and I was a dog owner for many years to Samwise, a sweet miniature dachshund. Though I do not currently own any dogs, I am a proud auntie to my two furry nieces–Tetra, a loveable golden retriever and Zora, an energetic goldendoodle–who I routinely see and care for when their family is away. I’ve housesat for friends and family many times throughout the years, for both dogs and cats. Big or small, reserved or energetic, old or young, I’ve dealt with it. My own pets have passed recently and while I adjust to my routine of being a new mom I would love the chance to provide love, attention, and care for your animals. I have a lot of love to give! I currently work only a couple hours a day remotely so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule during the weekdays. I’m also available for most weekends. Nights are a little harder, as I have a little one at home, but not impossible–I have additional child care at home. When caring for your pet you can be rest assured that both your pet and home will be treated with respect. I will provide excellent service and if you’re not happy with me I will take no offense. I am a quick learner and good with constructive criticism and instruction. Just let me know :) Your pet’s care and safety is important to me.

I used Elan to walk our girl Neffie for a few days for the 1st. I’m always reserved when allowing new dog walkers into my home. However, Elan came a few days before and met with Neffie and me to get special instructions and the lay of the land. Neffie warmed up to her instantly. Elan, was a pleasure, on time with her walks, sent me photos, and updated me how my baby was doing. I will definitely use her again. Thanks again Elan for giving me a piece of mind. :)

About: Hi! I’m Stan — a lifelong dog and cat owner turned pet sitter based in Ellicott City, Maryland. I’ve spent my whole life around animals and caring for them has always come naturally. Whether it's a long walk with a pup or some quality playtime with a curious cat, I truly enjoy every moment spent with our furry companions. Although I’m new to Rover, my years of hands-on experience speak for themselves. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give your pet the same level of care and attention they get at home. I can provide pet sitting reviews from pet owners that I have provided services too outside of the Rover Platform. Working from home so I can visit your home during the day or care for your pet at my home. If you need a place to take your pet I have plenty of room at my single family home. Looking for pet sitting and house sitting in the Ellicott City and Columbia Maryland area. As a pet sitter, I make it my priority to ensure every dog and cat in my care feels safe, loved, and at home. I’m home most days, which means your pet will get plenty of attention and companionship throughout their stay. I have a cozy house with space to play and comfy couches for cuddles—furniture is never off-limits here! I’ve cared for both small and large dogs, as well as all kinds of cats, including hairless breeds like the Sphynx. Whether your pet is energetic or laid-back, I adjust to their personality and needs. Long walks are no problem for pups who need more exercise, and I’m happy to visit the dog park if they’re friendly with other dogs. A stroll through the local park is also on the menu. My goal is to keep every pet in my care active, happy, and stress-free while you're away

Terry was so patient with my scaredy-cat pup, let her come to him and she was even taking treats from him after their walk. I can already tell she’ll be in good hands.

About: *Hi! I’m back and actively taking bookings 😊 My profile has been around for a while, but I’m now fully available, responsive, and ready to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. Feel free to reach out anytime!* I’m Alexa, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm, where I was surrounded by animals every day—especially horses, which I’ve ridden and cared for most of my life. That experience taught me responsibility, patience, and how to truly understand animals and their needs. I’m an avid dog and cat lover, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to feeding routines, giving medications, or just spending quality time with them, I make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m very attentive, reliable, and experienced with animals of all temperaments and energy levels. I also have a ton of references available from families and clients I’ve worked with over the years who can speak to my reliability, trustworthiness, and the level of care I provide. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be in caring, capable, and experienced hands with me! I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for both weekdays and weekends and can easily adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that’s early mornings, midday check-ins, or evening care. Your pet’s safety and comfort in their own home are my top priorities. I stick closely to their normal routine to keep things familiar and stress-free. I’m very attentive to details, from feeding schedules to behavior and any special instructions. I respect your home, keep everything clean and secure, and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. You can trust that your pet is in reliable, caring hands.
