About: I have my own dog that I’ve been training since he was a puppy. I have experience potty training, giving oral medication and more. I grew up with dogs and have been pet sitting for friends and neighbors since I was in middle school. I have experience with large and small dogs as well as young and older dogs. I just graduated with a bachelors in biochemistry & Nutrition and Exercise at Virginia Tech. I’m now home living with my parents and have a very flexible schedule! I currently live in a house, there’s plenty of open grass, walking areas and even a fenced in back yard for any dog to run around in! I’m happy to assist you with your dog care needs in your own home as I know that’s where they’re often most comfortable!
“Catherine got there on time and spent a good amount of time with the dogs. I appreciate the feed back and the pictures. I look forward to having you drop by again when we need you ! Thank you”
“Yana is great! She was scheduled for a drop in for my dogs. They loved her and she gave attention to my cat as well (not that he gives anyone a choice). The dogs were happy and worn out when I got home. I will absolutely be booking with her again.”
“Abigail is an excellent pet sitter and I strongly recommend her. I felt very comfortable with Abigail coming into my home to care for my cat. She is a kind hearted and caring person who genuinely loves pets!”
“Hope was great! We are out pretty far, and I was so glad to find someone willing to visit our pups & kitty when we were away for Christmas. We had a quick meet & greet beforehand and I knew I could trust Hope! Our pets were definitely well-taken care of, and I loved seeing her detailed check-ins and pictures. Thanks for a great experience! Loki, Cleo & Chubby definitely made a new friend! :)”
“Basil was awesome with our two kitties! Felt very good that our cats were well cared for. Gave medicine to one of our cats. Responsive and helpful and even stopped by to meet them for the first time. Highly recommend Basil.”
“Kelsie was great. I needed a sitter to drop in on Augusta twice a day on short notice and Kelsie was available. She was able to get Augusta, a very shy girl, to come out to visit.”
“For our first time using Rover, Aiden was amazing! Great communication, sent pictures and notes on the visits. This was a great first time and we appreciate all the time and effort put in. Thank you!”
“Caroline has been so patient with helping my dog feel comfortable with a stranger in the house. She has been a wonderful communicator and genuinely cares. Thank you!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats and rabbits for years. I also have experience as a pet owner to a cat and grew up with dogs and cats and various rabbits and farm animals my entire life. My goal is to ease your pets anxiety when their person is not there! I will work to make sure your pet has what they need and the love they deserve! I work 3 days a week but am off by 5:00 and am super flexible. I am free on weekends and am happy to stay with the animals when I’m not at work! I also have the flexibility to leave during lunch during my work hours. I am very in tune with your pets needs and will make sure they always have fresh water and food at correct times. I’m happy to send as many updates as you need, and as many pictures! I am very flexible of what is required for you and your animals needs! I love to walk around the neighborhood and get them exercise as well as spending time in their safe environment. I’m happy to play fetch or sit with them and just give cuddles.
“Rita was amazing! She got my shy cat to come out of his shell with strangers! They were besties by the end of the visit. So grateful to have had her as a sitter!”
“Shaylee is a dependable,, animal-loving person who did a really amazing job looking after my animals. Her flexibility and communication while I was traveling, made me feel so reassured that my babies were in good hands.”
“Mitch was very communicative and on point with drop in visits for my cat Comet. She can take some time to acclimate to new people and she warmed up to him pretty quickly! Would happily book with Mitch again.”
“Emil is super flexible and always willing to help! He’s easy going and took my pup and kindly watched her for my first week of work. It was hard to leave her, so I appreciated all his help!”
“Karlee was awesome! She left the most detailed notes and photos that I've ever seen from a sitter, and she was incredibly personable and warm. Definitely glad we found her to care for our kitties and wouldn't hesitate to book her again.”
About: I have taken care of and owned many different breeds and sizes of dogs. I currently have a cat. I enjoy playing with and helping to nurture the wellbeing of animals. I leave work for lunch to go home and play wirh my cat. I dont like leaving him alone for long. I spend hrs every day with my cat. I make sure all bowls are cleaned between meals and clean water. Spend quality time walking and/or playing with pets. Make sure they have toys and bedding is clean and soft for them.

“Madelyn was amazing with Baxter and Bentley when we had to be out of town for a few days. She stayed in touch with me and sent me great photos after each drop-in visit.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Hollymead
Sarah was very conscientious and took good care of my cats. They were calm and happy when I returned home, and the house was clean and neat. She sent photos and helpful notes every day. I'd recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable and responsible person to take care of their kitties!
Yana consistently does a wonderful job with our two shy kitties! She always spends plenty of time with them and gets them to warm up to her, is great with communication and sending photos, and keeps their food and litter areas neat and tidy. We have peace of mind knowing they are in caring and competent hands while we are away!
I'm always nervous leaving my cat alone when I'm gone so I was very stressed about all the travel I had to do for the holidays. Chelsea was fantastic and it was clear after the first day that I had nothing to worry about. I would definitely book with her again and would recommend her to anyone!
Laura was fantastic! She sent detailed updates and adorable pictures of our two cats every day. She was attentive and responsive, clearly showing her love for cats. She even set up treat puzzles, which were beyond our requests. I highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely book her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Hollymead on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 366 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Hollymead. 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.

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.
