“Justin did a wonderful job taking care of our crew. We have kitties that require medications with timed drop ins. So it was important that we had someone on a 12 hr schedule to come in. Will definitely have Justin for future sits when needed.”
“Sarah is so personable and our kitties really enjoyed her visits! Loved the updates too. We will definitely be moving forward with Sarah when we need a sitter!”
About: I used to work for a pet care company called Pet and Home Care. I was a traveling pet care agent for them and I am trained to take care of all kinds of pets. I even took classes through them on what to do if a pet has a medical emergency. I grew up around animals and have a deep love for them and I’m excited to work with your pets :) I’m currently a part time student at FCC and I’m looking for extra work. I have time everyday for visits. I have open availability all day Sunday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday I give fresh water and treats every visit (if treats are allowed). Plenty of pets and attention. I can administer medication and follow special dietary plans. I have a leash belt I use when walking dogs that keeps the dog hooked to me for extra control and ensures they can’t pull the leash out of my hand.
“Asia was amazing! She was incredibly communicative, kind, and attentive. She went above and beyond to make sure my pup was well taken care of, and I really appreciated the updates throughout their time together. I would absolutely book with her again!”
“Raven did such a wonderful job taking care of my kitties while I was away for 5 days. She was very punctual and sent me regular updates with pictures. I will definitely book with Raven again! Thanks, Raven!!”
About: I treat every pet like they're part of my own family. I know every dog and cat has a unique personality, so I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and comfort level to help them feel safe and happy while you're away(๑'ᵕ'๑)⸝* I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide dependable pet care throughout the week!! I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to give every pet the attention, love, and care they deserve while their owners are away!! (,; ⩌ ;,) Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll follow your routine and care instructions closely to help them feel secure and comfortable. I'll make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise or playtime, and lots of love and attention٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و ♡
“Misty did a great job of taking care of our two kitties! Reliable and communicative, she was able to cater to both their personalities to make sure everyone was comfortable! She was even able to make our shy cat warm up to play time. Would be happy to use her again :)”
“Justine was absolutely wonderful. My cat is very shy, and usually hides from Catsitters and other people she doesn’t know. She did not hide from Justine, which I see as a major good sign. Justine also made a game with my cat of hiding the treats I said to give her so my cat could find them, which helped keep my cat entertained. I would absolutely hire Justine to watch my cat again!”
“We had a great experience with our new dog sitter, Sonya! She did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, making sure he was fed, walked and given plenty of attention and playtime. It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands while we were away. She was reliable, caring and went above and beyond. Thank you, Sonya!”
“Alexandra is awesome! She made my trip away from home stress free and took great care of my two cats for me while I was gone. She has excellent communication skills and works to make sure you are reassured while away!”
About: I love pets, and a great walk. I just lost my pup recently so I think this would help. I have a genuine heart, time and patience for your pets. I have taken a pet through general puppy training, and I have also administered shots for an ill pup. I own 2 cats so I love a feline as well. ❤️ About me, I am easy going, trustworthy, caring and kind. I am very detail oriented and observant which I believe are key traits in caring for pets. And I’ll bring the treats! I’m very flexible currently, name the time and I can put on my schedule. I am in easy to work with, and will be on time I care for my pets as if they are kids. They have the bed, treats, food and all the snuggles they need. I did have a pet with diabetes and so I can do shots if necessary
About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs- all sizes and ages. I helped my father train dogs for his business. I also have a service dog at home who is trained and got certified. I have my own cat baby who I’ve had since we were both young. I currently do work part time as a customer experience associate but my hours are very set normally and can be flexible with proper notice. Before being left alone with your pets I would like to do an in home visit to meet everyone and go over routines and where everything goes.
“Kelly took great care of my two cats (drop in visits) while I was gone for a week. She followed the care instructions that I left and sent me pictures every day. I will use her again and recommend her to orhers.”
“Juliana was absolutely wonderful! She took care of both my cat and my home while I had to travel for 10 days. Every day she communicated with me and sent pictures. My cat seemed to love her and was very comfortable with her. Juliana made sure that everything was in order when I got home. It was truly a great experience and I am very grateful for her. 10/10, I will definitely welcome Juliana back when I need a sitter!!”
“Matthew came last minute for me and did a phenomenal job. I have a Cane Corso and German Shepherd and he handled both without any issues. Def will be using him again and highly recommend him.”
About: I have had several pets through my life and all have had different personalities. Adapting to them to make them comfortable is important. I also have helped family take care of their new puppies. I’m very comfortable and understanding when dealing with puppies. Currently I can do any time! I don’t mind having an early morning or late night drop in. I am very flexible and want to make this easy for YOU! Just communicate what you need and it’ll be great. I want the animal to be as comfy as possible. Sometimes their human leaving can be stressful! I want to meet them where it’s needed. Not have their routines thrown off.
“Very good - Jessie was flexible when weather changed our plans and provided good updates. Our dog just wanted to lie in bed, but Jessie tried to coax her into some exercise and was willing to stay the full 30 minutes.”

Kaya watched my two cats for just over a week. The cats were well taken care of and our apartment was as well! Kaya communicated quickly when there were concerns over a leak in the apartment. Kaya is responsible, timely, friendly, and is great with communication. She takes great care of cats and the apartment, we will book with Kaya again in the future.
Kristy was responsive, compassionate, and took the time to notice and appreciate each of our animals’ needs and personalities. Everyone seemed happy and satisfied when we got home in the evening which gave us such peace of mind. We’re so grateful for her time and availability! Would highly recommend to other pet parents.
Connie is always excellent. She did two visits to my cats this time. She provided a detailed description of what she did while visiting them each day and sent best pictures! I am so glad I found Connie on Rover! She has been a huge help to us when we travel!!!!
Kim is an amazing petsitter! My family and I got our two cats a year and a half ago. We were pretty anxious about leaving them for a week for a family vacation abroad. I was even more anxious as this would be the first time ever that we would leave them for an extended period of time. Kim did a great job of sending me daily photos of my cats and little notes each day of how they were doing which was so important to me. I deeply appreciated Kim’s intentional and loving care towards my beloved pets and will definitely rebook her if I have any future trips. Thank you!
This is our second time asking Delores to watch our cat Poe and we will continue to ask her in the future! She is amazing, very communicative, and really cares about the animals she is watching. She also went above and beyond and took in our packages and took out our trash while we were gone. We really really appreciate her!
Erika is amazing! She was very quick to respond to my short notice request and took incredible care of my cat, Mia. She brought treats and played with Mia every day of her booking. She did so well that Mia was absolutely in a great mood (and health) when I returned from my trip. A big feat with a 14 year old cat! Thank you!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Frederick is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 November 2026, there are 701 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.

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.
