About: I have had dogs my whole life, starting with a German shepherd mix when I was 8 years old. I have experience with dogs of all energy levels. I currently own two high drive, high energy border collies and 3 papillons. I am a member of a local obedience club and actively train in barn hunt, disc, and flyball. My dogs also have several obedience and trick titles, so your dog may come home knowing more tricks! I also have experience with exotic animals. I currently own several crested geckos and have owned bearded dragons, a uromastyx, and a chameleon in the past. Crate trained dogs only please! I am currently a stay at home mom so I will have plenty of time to play and train your four legged babies. I am very flexible with schedules. I have a fenced in yard and friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I also have 3 kids (7,12, and 16) who love animals to play with. My children have been taught how to be respectful to all animals.

I can make house visits to let your pet(s) out to do their business, feed them, change litter etc... I have always had a love for animals and know how hard it is to find someone you trust to care for your pets. Also to trust a stranger in your home!

I am available locally with short notice or can be available long term.

I do not do overnight but I will drop in up to 3 times a day so they are not feeling left alone. I am a very early riser so can be at your home 5am-8pm hours :-) Thank you! I can swing by during the day on my breaks/lunch hour for 15 mins or more depending on the pet’s needs. I’m up very early so nobody goes off their normal feeding or medicine schedules. My dogs eat and get meds at 5 am every day. If going outside I always leash, or watch closely if fenced yard is available. Fill fresh water every visit , clean up waste if requested

“Melanie did an awesome job taking care of our 3 dogs while we were out of town for a week. She was on time daily for the 3 drop ins. We definitely will be using her again. I highly recommend her. ❤️❤️❤️”

It would be a huge honor to take care of your fur baby:) I am a full time dog walker/dog sitter! Whatever you need I will provide! Need a vacation?

About: I have an extreme soft spot for dogs and wish I could save and care for them all. I have lived on a farm caring for animals of all sorts especially dogs. I have helped train, care and watch dogs for years. I work full time during the week and attend college full time during the week but I love to make time for all animals so, give me all the dogs! Weekends are very flexible for me. Caring for animals inside your home is a different type of trust a client may have. Finding trustworthy people sometimes becomes hard and anxiety filled. I will do anything in my power to gain your trust and approval for me to take your precious babies in my care.
About: Have been a pet owner all of my life, and experience with all types of animals.

I have a large house with plenty of space for indoor relaxing, and a fenced backyard for exercise & playtime. I have one medium sized dog (Labrador Retriever mix) who is very friendly, both to people and dogs.

About: I’m 36 years old and have had dogs and cats my whole life. I’ve had both small and large breed dogs, puppy to senior. I’m an animal lover. I will take very good care of your fur baby. I clean houses part time but still have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can board, walk, and do drop ins and doggy day care weekdays and weekends. My schedule is flexible. My yard is not fenced in but I can take your pet outside to play on leash or without leash if they don’t run off. I can watch in your home or mine . I have 3 kids who will love your fur baby just as much as you do.
About: I’m deeply empathetic, detail-oriented, and have years of experience in caregiving—which makes me especially attuned to the needs of pets who need a little extra love, patience, or routine. I’m not just a sitter or a walker; I care for your pets like they’re part of my family. I have a soft spot for senior dogs and anxious pups, and I genuinely love creating a calm, comforting environment that helps them feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals as part of my day. Whether it’s a midday walk, a morning or evening drop-in, or helping out while you're at work or away, I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to show up when your pet needs care and company. It’s a meaningful way for me to stay active and connect with animals—something I genuinely enjoy. I treat every client’s home with the same respect I would want for my own. I follow all instructions carefully, stick to your pet’s routine, and double-check that doors, gates, and crates are secure before I leave. I’m very mindful of creating a calm, safe environment—especially for pets who are shy, anxious, or need a little extra reassurance. Building trust is important to me, so I always communicate clearly, provide updates, and do my best to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable while you’re apart.
“First time using rover, and I didnt have to worry about my pups at all while I was gone. She took great care of my them! She sent updates and photos and let me know of anything concerning, which I appreciate. She even dripped my faucets while I was gone, and I didnt even ask or think about that! I try not to leave my pups home alone, but if I ever have to, I'd happily trust her again! Thanks Haven!”
About: I’ve cared for birds, chickens, ducks, and dogs—there’s nothing I can’t handle! I’ve wanted to be a vet since Kindergarten, and pet sitting is the closest I’ve gotten so far. I am a college student so I might be out of your house for 2 hours or so but I’ll always let you know. I’m always available to watch the babies. I make sure to take the dogs out frequently and mostly love on the pups if I can’t cuddle your dog/dogs please don’t book me.
About: I have been taking care of all types of pets my entire life. I have experience working with senior cats and dogs that may need extra attention. During the school year I take care of pets on weekends and some holidays. During the summer I am available any time! (I’m a teacher) I have a German shepherd and 2 cats. They typically freely roam but the dog is crated when I am not home or at night.
About: I have a Bichon/ Shi tzu who I love and is like a child to me. Let me know if it isn’t okay to bring him around your pets and it isn’t a problem at all. I am excited to meet more pets . I’d love to work with your pets and look forward to meeting every one. I'm currently doing this as part time for myself to make a little extra cash. My main availability will be during the weekends and for drop ins during the week if available. I currently live with a roommate but they will not mind if I took in a pet for care. Currently, I typically help care for my friends pets if they are out of town but have no issue helping others.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Joppa on Rover is $14.55 per visit (as of June 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 June 2026, there are 7 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Joppa. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
