“I really appreciated the quick responses and the daily pictures. The fact that M’aiq actually let her see him goes to show she is definitely a cat person. I didn’t worry about my babies once.”

“That is a great addition—it shows she really understands different cat personalities, from the "spicy" ones who hate grooming to the shy ones. Here is the updated review with those details included: ### Review for Liz **Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** Liz provided incredible care for my three cats while I was away. It is always a bit stressful leaving a multi-cat household, but Liz handled everything with total professionalism and genuine care. She stayed on top of their specific needs, including: * **Medication & Maintenance:** She reliably administered medicine and kept the litter boxes spotless. Food and water were always fresh and topped off. * **Frank:** I loved the updates about her playing with him; she made sure he got plenty of exercise with his favorite laser toy! * **Rudy:** She even managed to give Rudy a good brushing—something he usually hates when I do it! She clearly has a magic touch. * **Ryan:** For my hider, Ryan, Liz took the time to find her every day just to lay eyes on her and make sure she was safe and doing okay. It’s clear Liz truly loves animals and respects their individual boundaries. I came home to happy, relaxed cats and a tidy home. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, patient sitter!”

About: I have always grown up around all kinds of dogs, large and small. I understand they require times to not only go outside to use the bathroom but also get some energy out. I am always willing to spend some extra time with them to get energy out. I am currently working part time, therefore most weeks are rather predictable for me and I have time often in the mornings and evenings when pets are most needed to be cared for. Some days I have more availability than others allowing mid-day times as well. Being able to help out owners and pets is something I find enjoyable. All pets have different personalities and when caring for them in their own home I try to ensure I understand their body language to ensure safety for myself and the animal. Caring for the pet is what matters most to me, following what owners need for their pet is my top priority.

About: Hi, I’m Jennifer. I’ve been caring for pets professionally since 2013, and I know how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and your pet’s routine. Care is built around patient, attentive care. I pay attention to the little things, from a dog’s favorite route to the way a cat likes to be greeted, so visits feel familiar and comfortable. I serve families in Charles, Calvert, and St. Mary’s Counties and are insured through Pet Sitters Associates. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life, both with my own pets and through Waldorf Walkers & Pet Sitting. I plan my week around scheduled walks and visits so each pet gets dependable care and plenty of attention. With over 13 years of professional experience, I understand how much consistency matters. Whether it’s a midday walk or care while their family is away, I make time for each pet’s individual needs—and a little extra love, too! I care for pets in their own homes, where they feel comfortable and can keep their familiar routines. For dog walks, I provide exercise at their pace, time to sniff and explore, fresh water, and plenty of affection. During pet sitting visits, I follow each family’s instructions for feeding, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any special care needs. I pay attention to each pet’s personality and comfort level, whether they’re ready to play or need a little patience to warm up. After each visit, I send photos and an update so you know how your pet is doing. I also treat your home with care and make sure everything is secure before leaving.

About: I’ve had plenty of dogs my entire life as well as taken care of friends and families dogs. Overnight, check ins or walking. I love walking dogs especially and playing with all animals. I will provide a safe, caring, and loving environment for your pets so you’re worry free while away from them! Currently between jobs and am a full time online college student. So I am pretty flexible!! If something doesn’t work i’ll just make that clear but I do not have many scheduled things in my day to day. I don’t mind doing feeding, walking, play time! Also don’t mind light clean up if they make a mess while you are gone. My dogs are kind of crazy so I understand messes happen! My dogs have an open back yard but if your dog is trained to walk I will be happy to take them out that way. My dogs get plenty of play time mainly with each other but i’ve done plenty of play time with them myself and can incorporate that with you dogs if they require play time! I also have dealt with older and sick dogs so I know how to be gentle and handle that. I have also had my own cat and watched others, I adore cats. Mine was sick for a while so i’m familiar with oral medication for cats and soothing cats’ anxieties as mine suffered heavily from unknown anxiety.

About: I have been passionately caring for dogs since high school, gaining hands in experience with pups of all breeds, sizes and temperaments. Having had multiple family dogs has made me comfortable and taught me foundations for compassionate pet care. In college I completed service dog training from puppies to graduation! I am equipped with higher leveled handling skills, deep patience, and the ability to manage complex behavioral needs, reactivity, or high-energy dogs. Whether your dog requires structured behavioral reinforcement, gentle senior care, or just a fun, safe, and reliable companion while you’re away, I am completely comfortable adapting to their unique needs. I treat every dog with the same dedication and professional care as a working dog, while making sure they get all the love and belly rubs of a family pet. I am currently working part-time remotely so my schedule stays pretty flexible. There are certain evenings that I would be unavailable for a different job, but will be blocked out prior. When caring for dogs, you can expect a calm, structured and highly attentive approach tailored specifically to your dogs, age, energy and temperament. Whether your pup thrives on active exercise or needs gentle, low stress, companionship, I prioritize safety, clear boundaries and positive reinforcement during every interaction my background and service dog training means I naturally reinforced leash manners, provide mental enrichment and remain hyper attentive to dog body language to ensure a secure stress-free experience after every visit or stay you will receive a detailed update covering exercise, bathroom, habits, and high-quality photos showing your dog, happy and comfortable For feline clients, my care centers entirely on patient routine and respecting their individual comfort levels. I always let each cat set the pace offering lively playtime with Juan toys for social kitties or quiet, not intrusive companionship for those who are shy or cautious, having managed delicate environmental transitions, and introductions. I focus on minimizing stress, maintaining feeding and lit routine, routines and closely observing subtle shifts in behavior or appetite. You can rely on consistent detail check-in with daily photos, so you have complete peace of mind that your cat unique needs and boundaries are fully honored while you are away.

“I'm so glad I booked Grace last minute for overnight house and cat sitting. My cat can be very shy and anxious when we're gone, to the point of not eating. Grace offered to do a meet and greet and kitty warmed up to her quicker than anyone else he's met, even rubbing up against her. She's one of those rare people that animals trust and love right away. During our trip, Grace sent us frequent updates with photos and videos, and confirmed he was having medicine each day. It was clear that he felt very comfortable and confident around her! She also made sure to inform us of packages received and any other house-related updates. She was extremely respectful of our home and went above and beyond cleaning after herself, which was very appreciated after traveling. When you leave your pet alone with someone new, it can be nerve wracking. I can reassure anyone in need of a sitter that Grace will treat your baby like her own.”

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Bel Alton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Bel Alton is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $41 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 5,257 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Bel Alton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bel Alton. On Rover:

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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 , 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.
