I’ve been a devoted dog owner my entire life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’m known for being dependable, patient, and genuinely passionate about dogs.

I work full-time Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 2:45 PM, which allows me to provide attentive pet care during afternoons and evenings on weekdays. I’m fully available all day on Saturdays and Sundays, giving your pet plenty of dedicated time for walks, play, and companionship.

I follow your instructions closely—whether it’s feeding times, exercise, medication, or play preferences. I make sure to give lots of attention, affection, and positive reinforcement so your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away. I also keep the environment clean and secure, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your furry friend is in good hands. My goal is to create a calm, loving atmosphere that feels just like home.

“Victoria was incredible. She kept us so well informed on how our three dogs were doing while she was caring for them. Very detail-oriented and very hands on with our kids. Would recommend her to anyone.”
“Susan did a great job taking care of our two dogs while we were away. We felt totally confident in her ability to care for our pets. I highly recommend Susan for your pet care needs!”

Cannot recommend Lindsay more highly!”
About: Note: I live in downtown Baltimore but work in Arlington, VA so housesits in DC/Virginia are ideal. Hi! I’m Serena, a dependable and experienced pet sitter with over 10 years of experience caring for pets and homes. I grew up in a home full of cats and 1 dog and was a proud cat owner for many years. Since then, caring for other people’s pets has become something I truly enjoy. Friends, neighbors, and travelers regularly trust me to care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that pets are family, and I always work to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and relaxed in their own environment. My clients often tell me they appreciate my communication while they’re away. I make sure to send regular updates, photos, and videos so you can see how your pets are doing and feel confident they’re in good hands. Outside of pet sitting, I’m an avid gardener with over 30 indoor plants and a vegetable garden. Because of this, I’m also very comfortable caring for plants and maintaining a home while you’re traveling. At the moment, I am available full-time some weekdays during the day as well as some weekends. Please send me your dates, and I will check my calendar. My Care Style My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. During visits I focus on: • feeding and fresh water • litter box or bathroom breaks • playtime and attention • monitoring behavior and wellbeing • maintaining routines your pet is used to I’m also happy to help with small household tasks such as watering plants, bringing in mail, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away.
“Jessica is absolutely wonderful with my 2 senior girls! I never have to worry when she takes care of them. She’s great with keeping me updated on them while I’m away and sends the best photos!”
“Emily was awesome to work with! We were away for an extended period of time and Emily always sent updates, communicated when needed, and took such great care of our kitties! Even our most shy cat came out to play with Emily! We will certainly rebook with Emily in future !!”
“Lidia was our dog sitter for the Labor Day weekend and did a wonderful job! She visited our pups exactly as scheduled and made sure they were well cared for — playing with them, letting them out, refilling their water bowls, and feeding them. She gave them lots of love and attention, which made us feel at ease while we were away. One of the highlights was how well she kept us updated. Lidia sent us plenty of pictures from every visit and shared regular updates on how our dogs were doing. We felt completely confident that they were in great hands. We truly enjoyed having Lidia take care of our dogs, and they clearly enjoyed her too! We will definitely be booking her again.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Halethorpe
Amazing cat sitter!!!! Alina made it possible for me to take a vacation with peace of mind, caring for a special-needs cat with complex medical issues in addition to my other two cats. I was stunned by how relaxed my cats were while I was away! She really understands cats. Highly recommended!!!!
Helen was amazing! I'm so glad I found her on Rover. She responded to my initial query quickly and with a friendly and professional demeanor. She offered to come by and meet my cats and receive care instructions and was very easy to schedule with. Throughout the process, before during and after my trip out of town, she responded quickly to all my texts and was very kind about my nervousness about leaving my cats at home alone together for an extended period for the first time, providing plenty of reassurance and listening to all instructions with care. She sent great text and photo updates with each visit and followed all the care instructions to the letter and exactly on time for each visit, and she treated my home with care while she was here. I could not have asked to find a better sitter! I will definitely reach back out to her for all my future pet-sitting needs.
This was our first time using Rover for our cat Walt. He is slow to warm up to people but Tabitha was great at the meet and greet just going at his pace and not forcing anything. She stopped by for 2 visits and by the second one he was less shy and approached her more easily. I would definitely recommend Tabitha as she was available on short notice and reliable.
Mel took perfect care of our Ety, communicated proactively before, during and after the booking, and thankfully was flexible and worked with me when I got the dates of our trip wrong. Great to have a cat sitter we can rely on near us in Halethorpe, will book again
Kelly was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter for Luna and Oliver. She was very proactive in her communication and provided detailed updates on how the two were doing, which gave us peace of mind during our travels given Luna’s regular health issues. The cats were clearly very comfortable with Kelly and we greatly appreciated the care and attention she gave to them to ensure they were happy and well-taken care of. She even went the extra mile to help us out during an unexpected incident, which was a huge lifesaver for us. We highly recommend Kelly if you are looking for a sitter who truly cares about your pets and wants to give them the best experience when you’re away!

As of July 2026, there are 5,472 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Halethorpe. 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.

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.
