“Leigh was very attentive with Karen! She played with her, spent time with her, wrote thorough reports on their time together, and was overall very communicative. She even left Karen a toy (which she loves, thank you!!!) Leigh went above and beyond and I would absolutely book her again.”
About: Adopted 2 Newfoundlands over 20 years, groomed so much fur I could knit a sweater! I understand what Dogs need! Making canines happy until you get home. Availability all week as I am currently not working and would love to walk your dog and make sure they have water and food during the day Experienced in socializing and training pups. I can help keep the manners in check for your pet, whether walking or sitting or staying. Treats are encouraged
“Leticia did a great job taking care of my cat Madison. Madison is a loner and doesn't warm up to people but he trusted Leticia from the start. I loved the photos and videos that she forwarded to me. It gave me peace of mind to know that he was well cared for. I hope that Leticia will be available the next time I need to be away from home for an extended period of time.”
“Susanne was wonderful with our dogs and took such great care of them this week. She was communicative, helpful, and incredibly thoughtful. She even cleaned up after one of our dogs got sick right before she arrived, which we really appreciated. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We’re very grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate sitter.”
“Karen was great for our drop-in visit with Chicken. She’s a great communicator, and keeps us in the know about dog behavior. She took a charming photo of chicken enjoying the outside. Much thanks Karen!”
“Emily did a wonderful job. She took the time to interact with our two cats. She secured the home and communicated regularly on her activities. We were very pleased with this service and the quality of our sitter.”
“Ashley took very good care of my elderly cat. She always responded promptly, arrived right on time for a pre-sitting interview and to pick up a key, as well as to messages. She takes the responsibility of caring for a pet very seriously, and is knowledgeable about the needs of cats.”
About: I have been working in boarding and daycare facilities for many years, as well as having my own foster organization ran out of my home, and I also have two dogs of my own! I work as a babysitter/nanny part-time, but my schedule is very flexible and I am able to change hours and days very frequently or as needed I will treat your home as I would want someone to treat mine, as well as the animals. I will take as best care as I can, and keep everything clean and tidy, as well as following any rules. Instructed.
About: Well with 10+ years of veterinary experience, I’m comfortable caring for cats with special needs and medications, anxiety, medical conditions, and unique personalities with patience. Veterinary care is a big part of my daily life. I work as a veterinary technician, so caring for animals, monitoring their needs, and keeping them comfortable is already part of my routine. I provide loving, attentive care in my home or yours, following routines and medications, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and special instructions while keeping pets comfortable.
“Jusskayy is a sweetheart! She accommodated me on short notice without a prior meet and greet and I am sooo thankful. She asked all the right questions prior to arrival and it was wonderful. Made me think of things I totally forgot to inform her about. She went over, spend time with my pup and left everything just as she got it. She is a definite top 5 on my sitters to use again!”
“Hey Bri thank you again! Sweetie was the cat that was outside last time you came. We decided to make her ours after her owners didn’t want her anymore. She was pregnant when you came the second time, most likely why she wasn’t interested in playing lol. But thank you again!”
About: Hi, I'm Michael, a dependable pet lover in the Pasadena, MD area. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits, and every visit includes fresh water, feeding on your schedule, potty breaks, playtime, and a quick photo update so you know how your pet is doing. I have been a pet owner ever since 1995 and am comfortable with all sizes and types. I'm careful and patient and treat every pet like family. I'm available during the week and most hours and I live close by, so I can be flexible for last-minute visits. I have reliable transportation and I always show up on time. I'd love to meet you and your pet before the first booking so we can go over routines, quirks, and anything special they need. Thanks I am currently working part time doing deliveries and pet care. I have a full fenced back yard and a basement if crates are needed but prefer to keep animals out of crates. I have a fenced in yard and my house is sectioned off top and bottom, as well as rooms that can be used for the animals as needed.
About: I currently work at a veterinary hospital, where caring for animals is part of my daily routine. I have hands-on experience with feeding, administering basic care, monitoring behavior, and handling pets of all temperaments. I also have cats of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, comfort, and routine. I’m confident caring for both dogs and cats, including those that may need extra attention, and I always treat every pet like my own. I work Monday through Friday at a veterinary hospital, so I’m already actively caring for animals throughout the day. I’m available for pet care services in the evenings after work and fully available on weekends. My schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable care while still giving your pet plenty of attention and time. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With my experience in a veterinary setting, I’m trained to recognize signs of stress, illness, or unusual behavior. I take time to learn each pet’s routine and needs to make them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment and follow all instructions closely.
About: I have been dog sitting off n on since I was 13 years old. I have taken care of dogs as young as 1 years old up to 14 years old. I also have experience with giving medication if your doggy needs it! I currently work full time. I work the midnight shift (11pm-7am) So I'm pretty free thru out the day. 🙂 My sleep schedule is crazy so I don't mind coming multiple times a day! So whatever you need me to do in your home for your fur baby! I will do! If that is putting them in a crate, leaving them in a specific spot in the house, playing in the backyard. Whatever routine you have for them I will do!

Baylie is wonderful! I highly recommend her. She really helped me out with an unexpected last minute request, which I greatly appreciated. She is friendly, professional, and fantastic with the pets. We will definitely book again with her. Thank you so much, Baylie!
Katie was wonderful to work with. She was very communicative, responsive and was great at getting to know and work with our sensitive cats. Even our grouchy cat opened up to her. She was also flexible in accommodating medication routines, the needs of a senior cat, and kind details like putting squirrel and bird food out to keep our cats entertained while we were away. We will definitely book with her again!
Leigh was very attentive with Karen! She played with her, spent time with her, wrote thorough reports on their time together, and was overall very communicative. She even left Karen a toy (which she loves, thank you!!!) Leigh went above and beyond and I would absolutely book her again.
Elizabeth was great with our two cats! We had specific instructions about keeping them separate and mixing medicine into food, & she kindly agreed to a meet & greet to make sure she received the details & met our girls. We felt good about leaving them in her hands, & everything was the way we left it when we returned. Thanks Elizabeth!
Arem was a great sitter! He made sure our cat was good, played with, fed, and everything was okay each day. He sent us daily updates with how she was doing along with photos of her, so we had a chance to see her as well. He was very communicative and made sure we were updated on everything. I would highly recommend him!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Anchorage is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .

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 , 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.
