“Adriana is always amazing and gives great feedback every visit, along with pictures of all my babies during each visit. She is great with their medication and gives them lots of love!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats in the household. My priority is care and love for your furry friends! When I see dogs in public, I want to pet them all day :) Currently unemployed and looking for a full-time job. My schedule is flexible and open most days of the week. Any time of day usually works for me. I like to gain a sense of trust at first between me and dogs(holding my hand out to sniff, pets if warranted, etc); Steer away from other dogs in public if mine gets aggressive; always conscious of surroundings; Dogs brighten my day every time I see one!
“Mikayla was amazing! It was our first time using Rover and we were in desperate need last minute. She stepped in so quickly and took great care of our pup while we were on vacation. We definitely hope to use Mikayla in the future and highly recommend her!!”
“Sarah C went above & beyond with our senior cat. She sent daily videos, pictures and updates. Our cat bonded with her and she is very picky about who she trusts. I feel very confident recommending Sarah and we will use her services again. Thank you, Sarah!”
About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. This includes daily feeding, cleaning food and water bowls, scooping litter boxes, letting pets outside, walking dogs, and providing regular playtime and companionship. I’m comfortable administering medications, including giving pills and syringe medication, and I always follow care instructions carefully. I’m especially patient with nervous or shy dogs and take a calm, slow approach that allows them to feel safe and in control. I also have experience managing multiple dogs at once and have completed drop-in pet sitting visits, making sure pets are cared for, exercised, and given attention while their owners are away. I’m currently in school and finish at 3 PM, so I’m available in the afternoons for dog walks or drop-in visits. I’d love to help care for your pets and make sure they get the attention and exercise they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications, and house rules, to make sure everything stays consistent while you’re away. I take a calm, patient approach with every pet. Especially those who are nervous or shy, so they feel secure and in control. I never rush interactions and always respect your pet’s boundaries. I keep a close eye on behavior and health, and I’ll let you know right away if something seems off. During visits, I make sure doors and gates are secure, leashes are used properly, and your home is left just as you left it. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and you feel confident they’re in good hands.
About: I have housesat for everything from friends to farmsteads, and am experienced in giving medication in both liquid and pill form to dogs and cats. For every other kind of critter out there, I love bringing them joy through play, clean enclosures, and healthy species-appropriate treats! I am available for care for birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, farm animals, and snakes/lizards/spiders as well. I currently work from home with a lot of downtime on Mondays and Fridays with largely free weekends, and I drive from Westminster to Boulder near daily. Let's help each other out! I like to provide a thorough and care-filled service, plus the pet photography's a must! You'll get as many updates as you like and you'll come home to a well-loved, clean, and comfortable animal that missed you very much. Open to any requests or preferences you may have, let me know and we'll work it out- I'm here to help!
“Dylan’s great! Definitely will book again while away during future travels. She kept a great eye on my cat Misha while I was traveling. Super flexible, communicative, and my super shy cat warmed up to her in no time.”
“I've recently moved to Longmont and needed to get a new sitter for the boys. One of my kitties has special needs and can present some unique challenges. Leah has been great and keeps me posted. The boys seem happy even though I'm away :-)”
“We had Mickayla check in on our cat Gumbo several times while we were out of the country for two weeks. She was easy to work with in setting up both a meet and greet, and regular visits, flexible with our schedule, and happy to give him affection in addition to cleaning out his box and refilling his food and water. She did a great job taking care of Gumbo while we were out (and even kept a couple of tropical plants in our house alive)! We would definitely use her again to watch Gumbo.”
“Madisyn was communicative, leaving a message and photo every day. She very kindly did a few above-and-beyond housekeeping jobs for me, taking the trash can in and closing/opening the blinds. Most importantly, she was very sweet and attentive to my shy cat.”
About: Hi there! 🐾 I'm a longtime animal lover with over 18 years of experience providing pet, home, and child care. I recently relocated here from Washington state and I'm excited to reactivate my Rover profile and get back to something I've always genuinely loved doing! I've cared for animals of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities — from puppies and senior dogs to cats, chickens, fish, reptiles, rodents, and more. I also grew up in 4-H, so being around and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I'm especially comfortable with pets who need a little extra care. I have experience administering medications and caring for senior pets, animals with disabilities, and pets with various health or mobility needs. I know how much trust it takes to leave your babies in someone else's hands, especially when they have special routines or needs, and my goal is for you to be able to travel or work with genuine peace of mind. I recently put down my best friend of 12 years, so I am newly an empty nester. I'm happy to care for your pets in my home or yours, depending on what makes them most comfortable! I work full time operating a business, but my schedule is flexible and I spend a good amount of time working from home, which gives me lots of flexibility for pet care, companionship, and check-ins. After some time away away from pet sitting, I'm excited to start building relationships with local pets and their people again. I'd love to meet you and your crew and see if we're a good fit! ❤️ One last thing - I want to acknowledge my one-star review and take responsibility for my shortcomings in my first booking with Rover. I’ve learned a lot about clear communication and using this platform, and I'm eager for opportunities to improve that score given the chance. Thank you for taking the time! I operate a coffee shop chain nearby and have very flexible hours. Tuesdays I have in person meetings from 11-3 but beyond that I design and pace my week as needs come up but am rarely tied to a schedule. A lot of this requires meetings or admin work from home. With my experience in 4H and all of the pets I have had and worked with, I am used to shifting my priorities as different animals require different attention in different areas and am confident in my ability to identify and give attention to whatever is needed.
About: I am a dog and cat lover and know the importance of providing attentive care for your fur baby. I have cared for many breeds of dogs including dachshunds, chihuahuas, cattle dogs, labs, English springer spaniel, and mixed breeds as well as cats of all backgrounds. I have lots of experience house sitting including caring for all your dogs needs, watering plants, checking the mail, and setting a home alarm. I take my job as a pet caregiver seriously and always strive to make your pet feel safe and loved. I encourage a meet and greet prior to booking services to make sure each party is comfortable and confident. I am currently working part time and will have plenty of time for play time during drop-in's and fun walks to make sure you fur baby gets all the exercise and care they need. My love for all fur babies and my dedication to being the best pet care provider I can be ensures I always provide the most loving care for your pet during our walks, overnights and drop-in visits.
About: I’ve grown up pet sitting for friends/family while they’re out of town. Also dog walking for neighbors. I’ve also grown up taking care of 3 dogs of my own. Im 19 years old. I have a part time job but pick up shifts whenever I can. Even then I am still able to dog sit it will be there whenever I can while not working. If I am at your home caring for your animal I will make sure to follow the directions given. I will also make sure to spend plenty of time with them.
About: I have been pet sitting on and off for the past 20 years. I do have two cats but I can separate them away from pet. I am good with all types of different pets. I am home during the day and so I will be able to spend a lot of time with your pet. I have time to walk and play with dogs and spend time with cats. I have a large yard just outside my home where the pet can play. I live in a quiet area so the animals will not be disturbed.
About: Hi there! All my life I have been an animal lover and for the last 8 years I have raised my own dog, and taken care of other dogs for families I used to babysit for. I can fit in any lifestyle your pet has, whether they are active or a stay-at-home. I can fit any accommodation as I work from home, love to exercise (so your dog would get plenty of it, if need be), and I'm incredibly flexible and will be normally free to help you more than not. At the same time, I raised my dog since she was a puppy so I do have experience with younger, more energetic dogs and overall I would simply love to help and treat your dogs like family. I hope we can talk soon! I'm super flexible and work from home at the moment so I basically can take care of your dogs whenever you may need it. I will certainly be more free for your dog rather than not! I will care for your pet in your home however you see fit. I do what is asked and can fit any accommodation whether your dog has a lot of needs, or simply needs a walk and some playtime. I'm happy to help however it may be!
“We have booked Natalie 2 times now. I have no worries when leaving my babies in her care. You can tell she loves animals and enjoys getting to be around them. She has vet tech experience which is a plus! We will always use Natalie as long as she’s available!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Frederick
David was a lifesaver and came in to take care of our two cats over the holidays at the last minute when another Rover sitter never showed up. He was super responsive and communicative and took great care of the cats, making sure they had their wet food prepared the way they like to eat it and keeping the litter boxes very clean. David was even able to pet our shy cat Fergus who never lets anyone pet him and usually just hides— so we were super impressed with his cat whisperer skills. When our other shy cat Marjorie was hiding, David was amazing and stayed extra time to look everywhere in the house. We really appreciate how well David took care of our two kitties and he made a very stressful travel situation way better. The house was in great shape when we got home. Thanks David, for everything you did to help us celebrate the holidays with our family! We came back to two happy cats!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Frederick is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $30 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 7,025 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Frederick. 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.

- 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 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.
