“John was fantastic! He kept us updated on what was going on at home and sent us pictures of the pets each day. He made sure the cats and Guiana pig didn’t miss a step in their routine while we were out of town. Fantastic experience! We will use him again.”
“We have worked with Summer for over a week now and she’s great with our puppy, Kali. She communicates well, very reliable, and follows instructions with ease. I don’t feel like I have to worry when she drops in with Kali.”
About: Ive taken care of many pets with specialized needs. This includes routine medicine and eye drops for the elderly, frequent belly band changes changes for those with bladder issues, and calming treats for those fearful of storms. Im quick to learn each dogs bathroom tells to avoid any unwanted accidents. I also have fishkeeping experience with 2 freshwater fish tanks at home. So if youre fish needs feeding or water quality checks I can handle that was well. I am currently working a part time internship with flexible hours, which allows me to care for furry babies in my free time! Weekends are typically busy, however with enough notice I can make them work. House rules are always respected, no matter how much a dog wants couch cuddles or if the cat likes the view from on top of the counter.
About: I’ve loved and cared for all kinds of animals throughout my life. With dogs specifically, I have experience with puppies, adults, seniors, anxious pets, and multi-pet households. I’ve also administered medications and supported senior pets through end-of-life care. Before changing majors, I studied pre-veterinary medicine, and I have volunteered with several animal rescues. Those experiences strengthened my ability to recognize behavioral cues, respect an animal’s boundaries, and remain calm when a pet needs extra reassurance. Caring for so many different animals has taught me that every pet has their own personality, needs, and way of communicating. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, quiet companionship, or a familiar routine while you’re away, I’ll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I’m self-employed and work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule for weekday, weekend, and holiday care. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and care in your home. I’ll work with you to understand your pet’s usual schedule and maintain as much consistency as possible while they are in my care. As a pet parent myself, I know how stressful it can be to choose the right person and leave your animals in someone else’s care. Before a booking, I prefer to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, triggers, medical needs, and what helps them feel comfortable. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, medications, walks, and household routines. During walks, I double-check collars and harnesses, keep dogs securely leashed, and remain attentive to our surroundings. During drop-ins and overnight stays, I’m mindful of doors, gates, and other potential escape points. I’ll treat your home with respect and will never bring another person into it without your permission. You’ll receive as many updates, photos, and videos as you’d like, so you always know what your pet is doing and how they are feeling. If I notice any concerning changes in their health or behavior, I’ll contact you promptly.
“Shemoy was great taking care of our two kitties and drop in visits! She kept us informed for each of her visits with pictures and she was always quick to respond to any messages. We will definitely have her back!”
About: Hi, I’m Jennifer. I’ve been caring for pets professionally since 2013, and I know how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and your pet’s routine. Care is built around patient, attentive care. I pay attention to the little things, from a dog’s favorite route to the way a cat likes to be greeted, so visits feel familiar and comfortable. I serve families in Charles, Calvert, and St. Mary’s Counties and are insured through Pet Sitters Associates. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life, both with my own pets and through Waldorf Walkers & Pet Sitting. I plan my week around scheduled walks and visits so each pet gets dependable care and plenty of attention. With over 13 years of professional experience, I understand how much consistency matters. Whether it’s a midday walk or care while their family is away, I make time for each pet’s individual needs—and a little extra love, too! I care for pets in their own homes, where they feel comfortable and can keep their familiar routines. For dog walks, I provide exercise at their pace, time to sniff and explore, fresh water, and plenty of affection. During pet sitting visits, I follow each family’s instructions for feeding, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and any special care needs. I pay attention to each pet’s personality and comfort level, whether they’re ready to play or need a little patience to warm up. After each visit, I send photos and an update so you know how your pet is doing. I also treat your home with care and make sure everything is secure before leaving.
“Breanna is AMAZING with my big baby boy 🐕!!! We are beyond Lucky to have found her! She goes above and beyond and is like a Dog Whisperer lol! My German Shepherd LOVES her and she’s his new bestie. I hope I can keep Breanna forever! 5 stars Highly recommend- she’s Wonderful!! 😁”
About: I’ve had experience in pet sitting for minimum 10 years. Attention to detail and care for pets needs come first. Restrictions if any are considered as well. Morning, mid day, and evening walks are a must. As well as feeding, as frequent or less as needed. Pets will remain hydrated and have ample play time and relaxation time throughout the day. I offer a fenced yard with a seperate play area inside of home dedicated to pets. There will be ample space inside, or outside of home for pets to flourish and plenty of dog parks available if preferred.
“Nia took great care of my two cats during the week I was on vacation. I loved her promptness, the communication, the videos and the pics she sent. She was patient and caring to my babies and I'll definitely use her again.”

I can also be available on weekends depending on the schedule. I am responsible and will make sure to be on time and consistent with pet care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 519 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Helen. 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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
