“We're so grateful for Jake's fantastic care of our girls while we were away! Despite a couple of small hiccups, Jake's love and attention to our cats shone through. His dedication made all the difference, and we'd happily trust him with our pets again!”

“I’m so happy we found Ed to take care of our cats while away. I always feel so good knowing the babies are getting taking care of in their own home!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, I’ve always dreamed of having my own! Once I recused one I couldn’t stop, now I have 3 angel rescue boys! I can walk two of them at a time, I’m always watching for other dogs, I let them sniff as long as they want, looking for bikes/ cars, being very vigilant the entire walk to ensure their safety. I recently moved to the area with two of my rescues and my partners Lab. Please message me if you have any questions, I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I love walking dogs, it bring me peace! I have my dogs on a schedule so I would easily be able to fit in more! I take care of my three dogs by giving them enrichment walks, playtime, snuggle time and backyard time. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and always plan to.
“Nalleli was wonderful! She accommodated my last-minute holiday weekend request and took great care of my three cats. She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures during the visit, and gave me peace of mind my cats were in good hands. I will definitely book with her again!”
“Amazing experience. Rosemary is punctual, knowledgeable, and truly listens to individual dog needs. My dogs loved her right away, and she was so nurturing during her time with them. We will be booking again!”
“Asal has been sitting for Charlize for a few months now and I can never get enough of her thoughtful updates and photo shoots when I’m out of town! So glad I found Asal on this app, and so is Charlize!”
“Christine came through for us with very short notice. Loved on our boys and took them for a walk. She is detailed oriented and asked a lot of questions when arriving at our home. I appreciated this as this was the first time we worked with her or that she had met our dogs. Thanks Christine!”
“Although we worked with Allison only one time, we were very happy with all of her communication and interest in our two dogs. We will definitely work with Allison again”
“Jennifer was so, so awesome with my two pups and kitty! She went above what was asked/expected, checked in regularly, updated us with (super cute) photos, and left the house how she found it. My Three Amigos are looking forward to the next time they get to spend time with her!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Herndon
Maya was reliable, attentive, and clearly cared about doing a good job caring for my cat. I received consistent updates, photos, and notes, which gave me real peace of mind. She followed all care instructions carefully and kept everything clean and organized. I came home to a happy cat and would trust Maya to watch my pet again.
Alexa is amazing!! From first outreach, she was super responsive and easy to communicate with. She made sure our cats were well cared for and even spent extra time with them, and sent plenty of photos. I’d definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!
Nicole continues to be the greatest pet sitter and human being! Our furry baby Ozzie adores her and I swear he misses her when she’s not here! Nicole dealt with more than she should have during our most recent trip and had our backs through it all! Thank you so much, Nicole! You are so amazing and appreciated!
Ashleigh took incredible care of my cat, Gus! She was kind, communicative and thoughtful. I was worried to leave my cat with a sitter for the first time- she provided through updates that put me at ease and did great with his “spicy and sweet” personality. 10/10 💌

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Herndon on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 Herndon. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
