About: I've been dog walking ever since 2020, starting with my sister's retriever mix, my neighbor's dogs of similar size (85 lbs), and a family friend’s corgi. I'm used to taking care of dogs with a lot of energy! I've been entrusted to take of care my sister's dog on my own for extended periods of time since then, spanning anywhere from a week to over two months. I am available mostly from 10 am - 4 pm on weekdays, barring any special circumstances. On weekends I am less flexible in the afternoons. I have a fenced in yard that is decently spacious with lots of slopes for dogs to run across. It's perfect for a game of fetch or just a case of the zoomies! While I do spend most of the day on my own, I can give enough attention to any dog that needs it because of my flexible schedule.
“Khadija was an amazing sitter for my weekend away. She sent pictures and videos very check-in and my cats who are typically very shy around new people were very friendly with her!”
“Drew went to my home daily for almost 2 weeks and took exceptional care of my 4 dogs. He left very good notes and did everything asked of him. I would definitely use Drew again to care for my dogs.”
“Joe was so wonderful with my very playful, attention seeking young cat and kept him engaged and happy while I was away. I was grateful to leave my kitty with someone so caring (and good at innovating new ways to keep a cat entertained!) and will definitely be asking him to look after my cat again.”
“This was our second time booking Teffni, and once again, she was absolutely fantastic! We have three cats and Teffni is so patient and attentive with each of their personalities. She also carefully managed their different food routines. We loved getting regular updates and photos during each visit. We came home to three content, well-cared-for cats. We’ll definitely continue booking with Teffni! Highly recommend!”
“Jana was my first experience with a rover sitter and I could not be more happy about it! She was really communicative about everything. She made a checklist for everything she needed to do for each visit and was really prepared. She also sent photo updates of my kitties and let me know every time she was with them. Jana also went above and beyond and made the kittens a toy for them to enjoy (so sweet!!) which really shows how much she cared about my kitties [and animals in general!] She took time to play with them and give them attention :) Jana made me feel so much better about having left my cats alone for a few days and I would book her again and I definitely recommend her services!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Melissa. Rover was good. Melissa was excellent. She did everything asked of her, cleaned up after feeding the dog and cat, and gave extremely thorough documentation of the visit - a detailed write-up plus 26 photos -- all for a 1-hour drop-in.”
“We had Natalie back to care for our five cats while we were away for eleven days. She continues to be an incredible professional, following care directions to the letter, while also taking care of things at home with the the utmost care. With five cats she has been quick to learn each of their personalities to best support them - feeding one away from the others, letting another have a drink from the sink at each visit as he loves, sitting on the bedroom floor until our senior cat comes out to lay with her to receive pets, and so on. She is quick to manage things that arise on her own, always independently managing any pet messes (or trash torn open by raccoons ☺️). It doesn't get better than Natalie and we'll continue to beg her to come back as long as she'll have our crew!”
“Nicole took great care of my cat while I was out of town. She is reliable and trustworthy. Highly recommend and hope to work with her again next time I'm away!”
“Larquana was wonderful!!! She was timely, followed instructions very well, sent the best and most pictures and left the sweetest report cards. I’m so thankful to her and we will certainly book her again for our future needs - thank you so much!!!”
“Rounida did a great job watching my two cats! She sent me pictures every day and gave updates about my cats. She kept the litter area clean and even changed out my Litter Genie on her last day! I would definitely ask Rounida to watch my cats again.”
“Meredith is highly responsible, and has successfully taken care of my cat who has become quite sassy (and hissy) toward pet sitters. I am so grateful that she has been able to work with us, even though I know her visits to see Luna are not easy. You're my hero Meredith!”
“I have had several sitters through Rover and Natalia is hands down my favorite. She is incredible with my girls ( a 6 yr old cat and 6 months old kitten). She's always thoughtful and sweet with them!”
“Samuel was a wonderful sitter! He was very attentive and responsible, he sent great summaries and pictures, and was flexible when fitting me in last minute. My rambunctious kitty had a great with him!”
“My dog Duke loved his time with Ashley each day, twice a day for a week. It was daily complete and total professionalism. Each visit included feeding, changing water, administration of medication, walking and playing with him. Absolutely recommend her and plan to have her help again in the future.”
“Michaela has been a wonderful cat sitter for our two kitties! She is very responsive, responsible, and conscientious. You can tell from the pictures she sends that she enjoys taking care of and playing with our little guys—and they’re happy to be with her as well! We’ll definitely call on Michaela again — she’s terrific!”
“Excellent work, very friendly, super responsive—everything all in one delightful person! We enjoyed having Abigail as our sitter (and so did Nigel) and highly recommend. We would love to hire Abigail again!”
“Melina is a great pet sitter. She has watched my cats several times and always sends me detailed updates and photos. I can always tell that my kitties were well cared for when I get home.”

Audry was very responsible and followed through on everything she explained during our meet-and-greet. She played with our cats every day and sent us many adorable photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She kept all the litter boxes clean and paid close attention to our cats’ dietary needs. We really appreciated her care and reliability. We would absolutely contact Audry again for any future pet-sitting needs.
Our family had a medical emergency and Summar was flexible and understanding when we needed to change the schedule around slightly! During a very stressful time, it was a relief to know that our cat was in good hands - one less thing for us to worry about. She is dependable, trustworthy, and I think of her like family! Thank you Summar!!!!
Karrah was wonderful! She took great care of our cats while we were away and sent us regular updates and photos, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was clear they were in good hands, and we came home to happy cats. We would definitely recommend Karrah and would be very happy to have her watch them again!
I've only ever used friends and family to watch my pets so was a little nervous about the idea of booking a stranger but Jana was so wonderful, put me right at ease, and set the bar so high for pet sitters! Right away I knew she was going to be a fantastic sitter. She was quick with her responses, prompt with her check ins and photos and clearly loves animals. My cat was so well taken care of while I was gone and I'm looking forward to continuing using Jana's services!
Tenzin was excellent, very conscientious and communicative. She did everything I asked of her, and my pets (a dog and 2 cats) seemed to love her. She wasn't fazed at all by my 120 lb dog or my 6.5 lb cat; she handled both extremes with skill, confidence and care. I'll be looking to rebook her regularly from now on if possible!
I have probably never written a review but Vidya deserves our recognition and appreciation. She takes her job with the outmost seriousness and I think she should open a franchise of outfits trained to her standards of care, kindness, transparency and integrity. We were away for two months and had complete peace of mind that our cat and house were in excellent hands. Thank you Vidya. You are a star.
Bianca really helped us out at the last minute with checking on our cat Brisa while we were gone for a few days. She was able to take up the info we left quickly and without any preceding intro visit. We really appreciate the attention she paid to Brisa and making sure to send great updates. We would hire her again without a second thought!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Chevy Chase on Rover is $35.52 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 7,951 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Chevy Chase. 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 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Chevy Chase. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 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.
