“Wonderful sitter! Took extra care to spend time with our pets to make sure they weren't alone & provided us with updates. We'll absolutely be thrilled to work with Paul again for future trips.”
“Madeline has helped out with Cleo twice now. She has been amazing taking great care of her and taking her on walks and sending lots of photos of her! She truly does a great job!”
“Heather did a wonderful job dropping in to help with my two cats while I was on vacation. She came over for a meet and greet beforehand to understand their needs and was even willing to put some jelly in my Oriole feeder during the week. She is reliable and trustworthy and I will definitely have her come over again!”
“Cheryl was fantastic. She did the meet and greet, asked a lot of questions, and took a lot of notes - you can tell right away she takes this very seriously. The two drop in visits went well and we received photos and a summary when she was finished. Will definitely be requesting her services in the future.”
“Maddalena is very reliable and takes exceptional care of our two kitties! We appreciate knowing our cats are well cared for while we are away. Can’t say enough good things about her! Thank you Maddalena!”
“As always, Miranda been amazing with both our pets! So delightful, always sending pictures and really shows her love for animals! We feel very safe and calm going away knowing our pets are very well cared for!!!”
“Ariel is an upbeat person and my three dogs really loved her during the meet and greet. On the day of her visit, she arrived on time, left me a nice series of pictures and the dogs didn't have problems when she entered the house or took them out. I will definitely book her again.”
“Travis spent a meaningful amount of time and effort on our kitties over two weeks; keeping them fed, entertained, and cared for. Compared to previous trips where we didn't know who would come that day and how good a job they would do, going through Rover and being able to trust that Travis was coming every day really relieved our anxiety and allowed us to enjoy the trip. The difference for Baku and Gojo was obvious as soon as we came home, like we had only gone out for groceries. There was a bit much hard food in the bowls, but we'll just update our instructions for future trips, as Travis has always been responsive and caring when communicating. The boys did just fine, which is another sign that Baku wasn't stressed out, as he usually can't be free fed. Pictures were good and showed clearly that Travis was spending time with the boys including lap time (Baku) and wand time (Gojo). We are very appreciative to have been able to rely on Travis and take such a long trip!”
About: I've had dogs all of my life! From puppies to seniors, I provide the love, affection and care your dog will need while you're gone! I am a live in caretaker for my parents. My schedule is SUPER flexible! I am able to leave periodically throughout the day or stay overnight at your house any day of the week! I am happy to follow the regular routine you have for your pet. Walks, feeding, cleaning up and a lot of extra love! Also, happy to grab mail, water plants and take care of garbage pick up.
“Kayla was on time and had great communication! She spent ample time making sure Quinn did his business, and gave him plenty of attention and belly rubs! We got some adorable pictures updates as well”
About: Having grown up with family dogs of all shapes and sizes, I understand the love and attention required to properly care for a pet. I love walking dogs, playing catch, and giving lots of head and belly scratches when welcome. I am very detail-oriented, so I'm great at following any type of routine a dog may be on, or just giving them the space and relaxation they need. I also enjoy caring for cats and giving them the attention - or the space - they want. I'm very flexible and go-with-the-flow to make sure I'm giving your pet what they need and you want. I work from home on the upper east side and available on most days to be friends with your beloved animal! I work from home full time and have a fairly flexible schedule. I occasionally travel for work, but I have the ability to drop in and care for your critters most days. As a pet-owner, I understand the importance of your unique routine and the anxiety with trusting someone else to uphold it. I value clear and detailed communication and will follow specifications or ask for any clarity if needed, sending photo updates if requested, and caring for your pets as if they were my own.
“We think Jenni did a wonderful job with our dogs. We have one dog that has sever anxiety and Jenni was very patient and willing to work with her. She is a very nice and easy person to work with. I would highly recommend her. My husband and I were very impressed, and she made us being away from the dogs feel a lot less stressful.”
“Kaitlyn did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were away for a few days! We have three cats with different needs, so we provided detailed instructions—and she followed them all perfectly. She was prompt, reliable, and gave us updates after each visit, which we really appreciated. We’re so grateful for her help and the peace of mind she gave us while we were away. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their fur babies!”
“Allison was great in the care of our senior cat. We appreciated the updates, pictures and the fact that she was accommodating with bringing in packages from the porch into the house while we were away.”
“As always, we had a wonderful experience leaving our fur babies with Aidan! Very communicative, attentive to our pets needs, and goes above and beyond to make us feel comfortable while we are away.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Germantown on Rover is $22.2 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 .

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.

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.
