Great help, Anh really helped put my mind at ease while I was away, and helping with the dogs was a big deal. She was very attentive and reliable on time and had attention to detail. I will definitely use her services again. Highly recommend

Mya is a Godsend!! After going through a couple subpar dog sitters, Mya is such a breath of fresh air. She responds quickly and is always on time. She takes the time to map out the routes that she walked with our pup and sent pictures every visit, as well as a summary of the day. Our pup truly loves her and she was a huge asset in helping to care for our him amidst our crazy schedules.

About: I’ve taken care of several pets since I was young. I had several dogs and cats (sometimes at the same time!). I love walking and playing with dogs, I’ve trained my puppy. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I have also taken care of kittens and adult cats. I have litter trained kittens and played with them often. I currently work full time, but am more than happy to watch your fur baby on my days off! I have days off where I have no plans and would love to spend it with more dogs or with your cat! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies (dogs) of my own who are friendly and can keep your fur baby company. I am use to watching other people’s fur babies in a 24 hour care setting.

About: Growing up I have had many family pets and have loved taking care of and bonding with every one of them. I have dog/ cat/ lizard/ snake/ bunny sat for different friends and families throughout the years and I enjoyed every second. It’s so cool learning and experiencing time with different types of animals. I remember the first time I was asked to cat sit for friends for a weekend and felt so honored. They verbally expressed their relief and trust in me to watch their precious baby and I was just glad to help my friends out while spending time with a little cutie. Now I wish to provide relief and comfort for more families and get to meet some new fun little fur babies !! I currently work a part time job so majority of my days are full of a lot of free time ! Most of my shifts tend to average around 5-6 hours so I am free after as well :) I will treat your home and pet(s) exactly as I would my own. Nothing but care and respect in every aspect. I am putting my trust in you just as you are with me. I believe in providing and maintaining a nice community wherever I go.

About: Since growing up at a young age, I’ve always had a pet by my side and now that I love daily unconditionally. If there is one thing I can teach them is to get along with others animals as well as people. My patience and understanding will keep them thriving and healthy. I only want to give them more than they need. I am available 5 days of the week to care for your pet, including the weekend if needed! After all, someone has to be there for them. No pet under my supervision has ever been in harms way. I have a big cage with food and water. Pet toys, cleaning supplies, and pet proof items to keep them safe.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 6 years and have experience with both dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and personalities. Over the years I’ve cared for multiple family dogs, including my own dog since 2019, my mom’s two dogs, and my husband’s dog. I also cared for my two cats and helped raise their three kittens from birth until they were rehomed. I’ve been an animal lover since my first dog at the age of 2. I’ve always been loving and playful with them and when they misbehaved i’d only cage them temporarily so they know what they did was wrong without popping the dog. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, maintaining routines, and providing companionship for pets ranging from young animals to seniors. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Pet care is currently my primary focus, which allows me to provide flexible and reliable care for your pets. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walking, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, medication reminders, and companionship throughout the day. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to follow their normal routines to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. I’ll also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. Before care begins, I take time to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, preferences, and any special instructions. During visits and walks, I remain attentive to their needs and surroundings, ensuring they receive proper care, exercise, fresh water, and plenty of affection. I respect both your pet and your home as if they were my own and believe in maintaining open communication through updates and photos. My goal is to create a positive, safe, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.

Mikela was very personable and very communicative when we did our virtual meet and greet. Our kitty is very old and needed some extra care and she was very understanding and helpful about it. We were away with no service except for emergencies/ rare service spots so when we were able to check in she was very fast with responding and giving us updates. We super appreciated her and her attention to detail and how well our little old lady was cared for. We would absolutely book her again. Thank you Mikela!

About: My partner and I work together to provide reliable and attentive house sitting and pet care throughout the DMV area. I currently work part-time as a concierge, which has strengthened my professionalism, attention to detail, and respect for building security and residents’ privacy. My partner is studying online to become an electrician, which gives him a flexible schedule and a strong sense of responsibility and problem-solving. We also have a cat of our own, so we understand the importance of routine, litter care, enrichment, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior. Caring for animals in their home requires patience and attentiveness, and we take that seriously. Together, we have experience caring for dogs and cats of various sizes, ages, and temperaments. Working as a team allows us to provide consistent supervision, maintain routines, and ensure pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. We are comfortable with: • Small to large dogs • Senior pets • Multiple-pet households • Following detailed feeding and care schedules We prioritize clear communication, cleanliness, and maintaining a calm, secure environment at all times. Our goal is to provide dependable care so you can travel with peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into our routine. I work some night concierge shifts, which gives me flexibility during the day to maintain feeding schedules, walks, and check-ins. Spending time outdoors with pets is a great balance after overnight work, and I enjoy being active with them. My partner studies in the evenings, so we are both structured and routine-oriented. Having pets in our care fits well with our schedule, as we prioritize consistency, fresh air, and daily activity. Because of our schedule flexibility, we are able to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening care while ensuring pets receive attentive and reliable supervision.

About: Hi! My name is Anjelica. I am a dog person and a cat person but if I am to be honest I have gotten a huge soft spot for cats since having 2 of my own. I have pet sit for people many times over the past couple of years, cats and dogs. Whether it involved me going to their house, walking them, or having them come to my house for a couple of hours. I have a car so I am able to drive to wherever I’m needed and am available most days! Like I said you can trust me with your fur baby. I am particular with how I feed my own cats so I understand certain routines that may be requested when it comes to watching other people’s pets!😄 I am available to provide pet care throughout the week (M-F) 10am-7:30pm. If you would like me to provide pet care more than once throughout the day or week I just ask that you provide enough detail and clear communication I want to provide the best care for the pets. I ask the owner(s) about anything I should specifically do or not do, how often should I walk them, when their feeding times are, etc. I just make sure I have all the necessary info so the pet can be taken care of properly and safely and then it’s time for belly rubs!

About: I’ve always had dogs in my life! I adopted my first dog, Beth, in 2015 when she was just 14 weeks old! Through her, I learned what it means to make sacrifices for others while also loving the process! She was very easy to train on my own, but sometimes her intelligence causes her to be mischievous! During the pandemic, I adopted my second dog, Buz at 8 months old. Unfortunately, he was a stray and came with severe resource guarding leading to numerous fights with Beth. Because of this, I put him in multiple rounds of training and learned for myself what it means to support dogs through and watch for triggers dealing with aggression. Because of them both, I am very watchful of dog behaviors and am not afraid of big barks! If I could, I’d have many more dogs! I am a teacher in SE DC, so during the school year, my availability is primarily evenings and weekends. During the summer, my availability is very open! I am very attentive and respectful of others homes, dogs, and instructions. Knowing that my own dogs take a minute to warm up to someone knew, I will be sure to follow specific routines or guidance given! Your home will remain as it was when I enter!

Natalie is truly a VIP cat sitter. She consistently goes above and beyond to make sure Pierre is not only cared for, but genuinely comfortable, happy, and loved while I’m away. She spends quality time with him, follows every instruction carefully, keeps me updated, and always makes sure he’s well fed and well taken care of. She is hands down the best cat sitter I’ve ever had, and I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing, trustworthy, and attentive person to care for their pets.

Trina helped us check in on our cat, and responded promptly to my request. She’s professional, courteous, and maintained communication throughout the whole process. She gave our cat some treats, food, checked on her water, and most importantly she gave her some love 😻. My cat enjoyed Trina’s company and was PURRRing on the phone !🧡 Trina was kind enough to offer to check in on my backyard hens when I mentioned that I was little worried about them too. We appreciate all your help and the peace of mind you gave us while we’re away. 🙏

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - District Heights

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in District Heights on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 7,559 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across District Heights. 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 District Heights. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 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.
