“We really appreciate Sarah being able to drop in on our cats with very short notice due to an emergency trip we had to take. Our kitties took to Sarah right away even though they have shied away from strangers before. I hope Sarah won't be a stranger to them for long because we will definitely request her as a sitter for any future trips we will take.”
“Kendra keeps being more and more amazing. She made our nervous dog feel comfortable very quickly. She cleaned up and did more than we can ask. She will be our go-to sitter anytime we go out of town or need one! Keep it up Kendra!!”
“Anny is incredibly nice and she did an amazing job taking care of my dog! She sent me photos and updates so I always knew what was going on and went above and beyond, playing with, petting, and brushing my dog not just popping in to dump food in a bowl/rushing the dog outside and leaving.”
“Amy did a great job watching our cat. Our cat can be a bit elusive, but Amy made an extra effort to connect with him and make him comfortable. She was also very helpful in offering to take care of plants & bring in package delivery. Daily pictures & texts made us feel comfortable. I would definately recommend Amy.”
“Miss Catherine is a wonderful dog sitter. I will definitely use her Services again. I really appreciate the pictures and how she tended to my girls. Thank you again miss Catherine”
About: What sets me apart is the personal attention and genuine care I bring to every pet. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each animal’s unique personality, routines, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, including pets who may be shy, older, or need a little extra patience and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am available to board pets most days of the week. I spend most of my time studying at home and I’m available during most days for a walk or a visit. I have a large fenced yard and live in an area with lots of parks and walkability. I also have some limited availability to care for your pet in your own home if desired.
“Jane took great care of our elderly cat, including giving her multiple medications when the cat struggled with being alone. It was a great relief knowing how well Jane was taking care of our pet.”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and bring over five years of dedicated walking and sitting experience to the table. As a distance runner who loves training for races, I am a fantastic match for high-energy breeds that need to burn off steam with long, active routes. I am highly reliable, communicative, and dedicated to keeping your pup safe, exercised, and happy! I work a hybrid 9-5 job, but I am remote on Mondays and Fridays, and my hours are very flexible, so most days I don't leave for the office until 9:30 or I come home early around 3:30! I love taking my dogs out on walks in the morning when it is nice and cool outside to avoid the heat, as well as letting them out to play with me in the backyard so that they can stretch their legs. I love to give them extra pets and treats as a small reward for their physical activities.

I am open to trials and meet and greets as well.

I’m pretty comfortable with dogs of all sizes and can do feeding, walking, or drop ins to sooth anxiety. Right now I care for dog Lola, and when she’s not around I’m making new fur friends around Patterson Park. I know that your dog is not just a pet, but a cherished member of your family, and let’s be honest it really does takes a village, so I’m here to be part of your pet support team and treat them with with love, respect, and exceptional care.

I know that life can be unpredictable, so I offer flexible availability whether you require daily walks or last minute appointments I can be there to make sure your pet has the care and attention they deserve.

“Brandon was amazing! Super professional and easy to work with. We were leaving our cats for the longest we’ve been away from them before, but Brandon made us feel confident they were in good hands. He was also kind enough to water several plants and pick up our mail. We especially appreciated his availability over the holidays. He was great!”
About: I've spent years dog sitting for family and friends, caring for dogs with different energy levels, and routines. I'm patient, calm, and very attentive to details especially important for anxious dogs, seniors, or pups who thrive on consistency.

Anny is incredibly nice and she did an amazing job taking care of my dog! She sent me photos and updates so I always knew what was going on and went above and beyond, playing with, petting, and brushing my dog not just popping in to dump food in a bowl/rushing the dog outside and leaving.
We were really hesitant at first because this will be the first times our dogs got visited by a sitter, Alexander made everything easy, they went to my home even before the actual dates to meet my dogs i have 3, my dogs instantly liked him, we had alex come by to our home 3 times during the day, he took them out for walks, spend time with them, and also feed them with no problems whats so ever, send pictures updates, really recommend him
Olivia was a wonderful sitter for our three cats. We arranged her service at the last minute after our regular sitter was unavailable. Our cats immediately took to her as she lovingly extended her hand to meet them. They were fed, litter boxes were cleaned and they were calm when we returned. Great communication and it was a nice touch to get photo updates! I can highly recommend her service!
Ashley was absolutely amazing! Our cat, Smokie, can be pretty shy with new people, but Ashley connected with her so beautifully. By the second or third day, Smokie was more playful and even excited to see her when she came by. Ashley gave us thorough updates, photos, and thoughtful check-ins that really put us at ease. The way she tuned into Smokie’s needs and her gentle, attentive approach made all the difference. We highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a caring and reliable cat sitter. We will definitely be using her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Greenbelt is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $43 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 17,527 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Greenbelt. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Greenbelt. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
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.
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.
