About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life and have personally had a variety of breeds including a lab, a rhodesian ridgeback, and a dashhound. I am comfortable washing, playing, trimming nails, and administering medication. I currently own a small business that is primarily weekend/event work! I work for myself so I can pretty much accommodate any requests/needs. Very flexible! I have a fully fenced in backyard so I can always bring your baby for some play! I love playing with any animal and getting to know them. I currently have 1 fur baby (cat, 6 years) so I understand their need for attention and stimulation! I take pride in making sure the space stays tidy and litter boxes maintained. Pets should add to your life and space and if I can help them clean up some of their mess, it creates a better environment for them and you!

About: I help to care for two dogs at home, one of which struggles with anxiety. I frequently volunteer at a local cat shelter where I help care for and socialize animals. I’m fresh out of college and still looking for a job, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to take care of pets. Reach out whenever! My dogs are fed twice a day and walked at least twice a day, not counting regular potty breaks. If your pets have any more advanced needs or schedules, I’m happy to accommodate them.

I enjoy spending quality time with animals and always make sure they receive the attention, care, and consistency they need to feel safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure.

About: I have been dog/house sitting for over 5 years, I am very dependable and trustworthy. I have 2 dogs of my own and have grown up with pets my whole life, making my love for animals pure.

I provide dog sitting in my clients’ homes and focus on making sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owner is away. I have been trusted by my current dog-sitting clients for over three years, and I also have dogs of my own that I care for every day. Having grown up with dogs my entire life, I’m comfortable with different personalities, needs, and routines. I adapt to each pet’s normal schedule as much as possible, whether that means feeding times, walks, playtime, or simply giving them companionship, so they can feel at home and maintain their routine while their owner is away.
About: I have owned both large and small dogs my entire life and have such a passion for creating safe and loving spaces for pets.

I have over a year of experience of Nannying, housesitting, pet sitting, and I’m looking forward to meeting your sweet pets!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 242 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Elkton. 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 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 Meet & Greet.

- 94% 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 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.
