Mercedez was absolutely wonderful with our terrible trio of cats. She dealt easily with the medical needs of our senior cat, including giving fluids several times. She also managed to coax out Manny, who doesn't like change and spooks easily, and get him to not only be in the same room but actually let her pet him. Moe was his usual attention-seeking self and she kept him happy too. Mercedez was great with communication and providing pictures the entire time we were gone. I strongly recommend her as a pet sitter and will certainly ask her to watch the cats again.

Amy started visiting my senior labrador, Sam this week and has been wonderful. I had some anxiety about leaving my old guy alone while I started a new work project. I found Amy and all of my concerns have disappeared. I know that Sam is in good, pet-loving hands every day with Amy! I have nothing but good things to say! What a relief that she is able to care for ‘ole Sam. I am grateful for her professionalism.

Super happy with the care provided for my dog and cat during the drop-in visit. Both were well taken care of. I had a last minute trip and June was available to assist. I appreciated the updates and photos, and it gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Would definitely recommend and book again!

Skylar is fantastic. She is very knowledgeable and responsible, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and reliable pet sitter or dog walker. She took great care of our dog. We would not hesitate to request Skylar again in the future. Great experience!

Tammy is wonderful!! She kindly arranged to come to our house to meet our dog beforehand and to make sure she knew all the details while doing drop-in visits at our home. Her attentiveness and flexibility made everything so easy during an otherwise hectic trip. Tammy is reliable and caring. She took the most beautiful photos of our dog during her visits! Most importantly, she was so sensitive to our sweet dog's needs and made sure he got plenty of his favorite cuddles. It was a comfort knowing he was with such a warm and caring person. We will definitely work with her again!

Kelly was wonderful with my 3 young cats. During her twice-a-day visits to provide wet food, she spent time playing with them and took a bunch of adorable pictures letting me know they were happy and well cared for. This was my first time using the services of a pet sitter, and I am very very happy with the experience I had working with Kelly :)

Emann took wonderful care of my cat Arya while I was away for a week. She was always prompt with updates and pictures, and I came home to full food and water bowls and a clean litter box. Arya even came out to socialize most days which is rare for her!

About: Hello, my name is Jenny. I am currently a stay at home mama with two littles who have all day availability to care for your loving pets and their needs. Prior to my babies, I was a licensed veterinary technician for several years at an animal emergency hospital as well as worked at Banfield for a few years prior to that. I have vast/in depth medical background that accompanies a large variety of knowledge when it comes to caring for your fur babies. If anyone has fur babies that take medication, require insulin, or any medications- I can meet those needs easily as I am highly skilled and trained to do so. I have a very active lifestyle and enjoy walking and catering to the needs of animals, I also do dog sitting & boarding & over night stays at our home. We live in a nice neighborhood that has plenty of walking trails and also have a fenced in backyard. Please feel free to contact me if you need any services. I am generally available for most days or evenings! :) Im currently a stay at home mama with two littles who also love animals. I have a 2 year old & a 3 year old who love to play and will help assist me in keeping your dogs well stimulated and exercise daily. Because I am home full time, I’m available for all needs of the animal/ with no wait time. We are always free for walks and potty breaks. I have a fenced yard in a very friendly neighborhood with plenty of nearby walking trails for the dogs as well as dog parks locally close by.

About: I have 2 dogs: Mina (8 year old Wheaten Terrier) and Halle (6 year old Boxer). I've had them both as puppies so I know what it's like to take care of dogs during those rough first few months. Halle also developed some anxiety so I have experience in dealing with leash reactive dogs and training them. I love all dogs and have taken care of friends' pets occasionally. I'm currently working on a hybrid schedule, so some days I work remote and am pretty flexible. On remote days, I'm able to work anywhere with wifi and can take care of dogs at the same time. My hours are also flexible so I am able to help almost any time and can take frequent breaks to walk or play with the dogs. I would ask lots of questions to make sure I know everything about when I can crate dogs, or if they can go to parks or dog parks.

Alexandra was amazing with our very nervous dog. She went above and beyond ensuring he felt comfortable and well taken care of. It was fantastic getting updates every drop in with how he was doing and pictures. I would recommend her whole heartedly for anyone with nervous or medically complex animals. I can’t stress enough how wonderful she was for our dog and us.

About: Hello! I’m June and live in Aldie. I have 2 dog of my own. I have been around dog since I was really young. I like to fresh cook food for my dog, make sure they are healthy and take them for a walk. When looking for a flexible part time job, I started searching ‘jobs with animals’ because I love animals ! This job allows me to be around different types of dogs and hang out with them and go for walks. ALL great things!  I am so happy to take care of your pets while you are away. I love long walks, fetch over and over and over, and treating your pet how I would want my pet to be treated! I am currently working from home. So I have a lot of freedom, I am free on weekdays before 5pm. I can work around my clients need. I am a pet owner as well so I will like to treat my clients dog just like how I will like my fur baby to be treat. We lived in a townhouse so small dog is ideal for boarding.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of September 2026, there are 6,684 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gilberts Corner. 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 Gilberts Corner. 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.
