“Sean was everything you could hope for when traveling without your pet. He was very communicative, prompt and professional and left us feeling that Ellie was in great hands.”
“Madison did a great job taking care of your 2 cats while we were away. Even our very shy cat let Madison pet her. She is very reliable, followed directions perfectly and sent us pics every time she visited. Thank you Madison!”
“We came home from a week of vacation to three happy & healthy cats, thanks to Hollie! We hired Hollie to come over three times a day to feed the kitties, give them the attention that they love, clean the litter boxes, etc. She did everything and made sure to send us such cute photos of the cats from every visit! Whenever she ate something she cleaned up so well, our kitchen is cleaner now than it was when we left. Thanks so much, Hollie!”
“Amanda provided excellent service taking care of our animals, and was especially attentive to our cat’s medicine regime. Communication was constant and clear, and she was more than reliable throughout the stay. Thank you Amanda!”
“Grateful to Tabitha for taking care of Luna and Oliver while we were out of town! Luna was happy for the company and both cats were well taken care of during the visit.”
“Helen is a delight! She came over to meet Gus the day before her engagement. Gus loved her and brought her one of his toys when she arrived. We will be asking her to take care of Avis again in the future.”
“We had a great experience with Yeji! She took wonderful care of our cats and followed all of our instructions perfectly, including their different feeding routines. She was reliable, communicative, and made it easy for us to enjoy our trip without worrying about the cats. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats. We would absolutely book with her again!”
“Susan did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were away. We felt totally confident in her ability to care for our pets. I highly recommend Susan for your pet care needs!”
About: Whether your cat is an energetic kitten who needs active playtime, a senior requiring precise medication, or a shy kitty who just wants a quiet human presence, I've got you covered! I've had cats my entire life and have been cat-sitting for friends and family for years. Cats absolutely fascinate me and I love being around them! I am currently in college, so cat-care fits in very well with my routine. I can easily fit in morning, midday, or evening drop-in visits without rushing. If I am house-sitting, I structure my day around your pet's needs. I ensure I am present for their preferred feeding windows, high-energy playtimes, and medication schedules. You can rest easy knowing that your cat's daily rhythm will not be disrupted while you are away. When caring for cats in your home, safety and respect are my highest priorities. I treat your property with absolute care and maintain your cat's exact environment, keeping food bowls clean, water fountains filled, and litter boxes taken care of.
“Anna is so sweet and takes great care of my babies! She’s my go to sitter when I’m out of town. She’s sends so many pictures and gives detailed updates about my cats. She’s very attentive and alerted me of of possible medical issue with one of them. Thanks Anna!”
“Ryan and Brittanie are fantastic! I knew as soon as they met my girl she was in good hands!! Both of them have great communication… and photos! I could tell my pup was having a fantastic time with their drop-in visits. We’ll definitely book in the future and recommend to anyone local.”
“Samantha was a great repeat walker for us! AlaHs responsive, and she followed my pedantic neighborhood dog rules to a T (again lol I'm so sorry but great work), avoiding the houses she had to avoid, etc. I would trust her again!”
“Sam is the only person that we trust to watch our dogs and he does such an excellent job each time. We've been using Sam for years and plan to continue to use him in the future.”
“I recently started using Angela for drop-in visits with my puppy, Melo, and I couldn’t be happier! She has already completed two visits, and I can tell Melo really likes her—he’s relaxed and happy when I get home. The photos she sends during each visit truly put my heart at ease and let me know he’s in good hands. It’s such a relief to find someone caring, reliable, and attentive. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind she provides, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”
About: I've had pets all my life and I'm starting to care for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different breeds and sizes. I currently work full time, I work 1 day remote at home and 4 days in the office. I will make plenty of time to be there for your fur baby though. I am very active, I go running, take long walks as well as hiking with my pup. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to have company. Any special needs, diets or behaviors I will need to know in order keep your fur baby happy and comfortable.
“She was fantastic, sent us pictures of our baby while we were away and we could tell that she truly cared for her. Our baby was so happy with her if you have a cat that needs a friend this is who you’re looking for!!!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Catonsville
I was overjoyed to find Helen because my reactive dog has done really well her. Helen has a calm demeanor that my dogs enjoy. She understands how to behave around dogs so that they behave. Helen is also very responsive to messages. Her messages are clear and well constructed.
Madison took great care of my cats while I was away! One of my cats is very shy and doesn’t usually come out for people but she came out for Madison and even let Madison feed her treats out of her hand. Madison updated us with pictures daily and was very communicative. Highly recommend!
Lorraine was the best cat-sitter ever! She was kind, lovely, responsive, and she went above and beyond what we asked of her. She did so many extra things like fixing our fishy wand that was breaking up and bringing a string from home to play with the cats (which I will use as an idea now too, thanks Lorraine!) I am so happy that we picked Lorraine to take care of our cat babies. She cared for them so much and provided feedback and photos on every visit which kept me happy since I was missing the cats so much. We would love to book Lorraine whenever we go out of town again. She is a wonderful cat sitter who will treat your cats like her own!
Mel was absolutely amazing! She was perfect for my crazy zoo! She communicated with me daily, so I always knew what my crew was up to! I had no worries while I was away, because I knew my animals were in good hands! I am absolutely going to rebook her in the future!
Thank you so much for taking such great care of our dog while we were out of town! We really appreciated the updates and the love you showed him. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We would definitely trust you again and highly recommend you!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Catonsville on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 11,979 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Catonsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Catonsville 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Catonsville. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
