“Heleen was professional and very pleasant to work with. She wrote thorough updates, outlining each visit and provided pictures of her visits. I knew my cat was in very good hands and I could relax on my vacation. I will definitely hire Heleen again in the future.”
“Irina was extremely attentive to my boys' needs, going above and beyond with giving them treats, playing with them, cleaning their litter box, and sending plenty of updates while I was away on a trip. I had only asked her to keep the boys well fed and ensure their safety, but clearly, my cats had a great time with her around! I recommend Irina to any pet parent in need of care for their beloved pets”
“Karina arrived on time, was sweet to bring in our packages that were left outside, played with my pups and cat, took pictures of them, and let me know if they peed/pooped. Thanks Karina!!”
About: I have 3+ years of hands-on experience caring for my two cats, and I regularly look after a friend’s Shiba Inu for about a month each year. I’m a native Mandarin Chinese speaker and fluent in English. 欢迎全程使用中文沟通，包括见面了解、照护说明和每次服务后的照片与情况更新。 I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, walks, playtime, and following detailed care routines. Living with a shy cat has taught me to be patient, read pets’ body language, and let them approach at their own pace. I pay close attention to changes in appetite, energy, behavior, and litter box habits. I’ll also provide clear photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule and can provide drop-in visits and dog walks on weekdays and weekends, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I limit my daily bookings so I can arrive on time, follow each pet’s routine carefully, and give every pet my full attention. I keep my Rover calendar updated and appreciate at least one day’s notice from new clients so we have time to confirm care instructions and arrange a Meet & Greet when needed. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home and follow each owner’s instructions closely. Before the first booking, I prefer a Meet & Greet to review feeding, water, litter boxes, walking routines, home access, emergency contacts, and any health or behavioral needs. During every visit, I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep dogs leashed outdoors, avoid interactions with unfamiliar animals, and respect your home. I also send photos and detailed updates about your pet’s food, water, bathroom habits, energy, and behavior.
“I cannot thank Emmy enough, she has been such a huge help! My cats had an emergency during my vacation, and Emmy was able to come check on them quickly. She visited my cats everyday and they were so comfortable around her! Emmy gives detailed updates and lots of cute photos of my kitties. Huge weight lifted off my shoulders so I can relax and enjoy my trip. Thank you so much Emmy!”
About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs since I can remember. I trained my corgi when he was a puppy and even taught my cat some tricks! I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I believe that all pets deserve to feel loved, comfortable, and safe while their owners are away! I’m currently a college student, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I have time all throughout the day, from the morning to the evening, to play with them! Having pets of my own, I understand the importance of routines and sticking to a schedule. I will ensure that your pets feel safe, loved, and normal while you are gone. I always prioritize making sure that pets are comfortable around me and will do anything it takes to ensure that they are.
“We are so grateful for the wonderful care you provided for our kitten, Chiquito. He came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well careful . All the chores were done perfectly, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such responsible hands. Thank you for treating him like family, we truly appreciate your kindness, reliability, and attention to detail.”
“Yamzel took great care of my cat while I was away👍She sent detailed daily updates and photos every day, which really helped me feel relaxed and worry-free during my trip. My cat is super shy and usually hides from new people, but Yamzel still managed to find him and send me cute pictures and updates. She also thoughtfully kept an eye on her food and supplies, which I really appreciated. I felt really reassured knowing my cat was in good hands. I’d definitely book with Yamzel again and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter 😊”
“Angelica took such great care of our dog while we were away. From start to finish, everything went smoothly and gave us real peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly attentive to our dog’s needs.”
About: I've been around animals almost my whole life. I volunteered at an animal shelter in high school, have had cats of my own since 2013, pet sat cats and dogs for friends and family, and have had experience raising kittens as well as experience in TNR. Currently available all day and can be available for evenings and/or overnights if needed. Starting in late August I will not be able to visit your pet between 8am-12:30pm as I am a part time preschool teacher. But I am more than happy to spend time with your pet when you're not able to so they have company until you return home! As a life long animal lover, I understand pets are more than just an animal, but they're part of the family. I take time to get to know each pet and will do all I can to ensure that they are always safe in my care, whether during a walk or pet sitting in your home.
“Rong was super sweet and really attentive with Stella. Stella usually takes a while to warm up to people, but she seemed very comfortable with Rong right away. Rong also paid attention to the little things around the apartment and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. Would definitely book with her again.”
“Patrycja was amazing in her drop in visits to look after our cat. She was punctual, thoughtful, and super nice to Bandit. We appreciated her photo and video updates. Strongly recommended!”
“Maila did a great job dropping in on our cat, Felix, while we were away for a few days. She even let him play outside for a bit, which I’m sure he loved since he’s an indoor-outdoor cat and doesn’t get to go outside as much when we are traveling.”
“Sameena is amazing! She was incredibly professional and took wonderful care of Luna. She easily managed Luna’s medication and even took the time to clean her eye stains, which is usually very difficult to do. I felt so comfortable leaving Luna in her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch sitter!”
“Amanda is a Pet Whisperer! She took care of our 2 kitties for a week with 2 visits each day - 1 morning and 1 evening visit each 30 minutes. One kitty is outgoing and self sufficient but the other is very shy and reserved. At the beginning of the week they were both hiding under the bed :( Over the week, she was able to engage with both of them and bring the shy one out of her shell. AND, by the end of the week, they were greeting her at the front door and interacting and playing with her at each visit. Each day she sent updated photos and detailed notes about how they were doing. In the past, when I've been gone they seem freaked out and nervous when I return - but this time when I got home they were their happy selves. I really can't say enough good things about Amanda. She is kind, caring and conscientious. She's a winner and I look forward to booking with her again soon!”
About: I have had a long held passion for animals, studying their behavior and welfare for many years. Starting in elementary school I have run my own dog walking and pet sitting services and have since learned the ins and outs of ensuring the happiness and wellbeing of your furry household members! I have open availability Monday through Sunday for pet sitting, check ins, and dog walking. No time is too early or too late for me! I have a large backyard and dedicated room for boarding pets. I strictly follow my clients’ requests and instructions when it comes to caring pets in their own home.
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Laurel is $30

This was my second time booking with Jennifer. She clearly loves cats and has such a wonderful understanding with my shy cat Charlie. She's also just the nicest person and was a lifesaver for me this trip -- she went out of her way to be available on days she wasn't originally scheduled as available, including a last minute addition after her last scheduled visit, when my return flight was massively delayed.
Irina was extremely attentive to my boys' needs, going above and beyond with giving them treats, playing with them, cleaning their litter box, and sending plenty of updates while I was away on a trip. I had only asked her to keep the boys well fed and ensure their safety, but clearly, my cats had a great time with her around! I recommend Irina to any pet parent in need of care for their beloved pets
Aik went above and beyond when I had a time sensitive package unexpectedly delivered while I was out of town. Aik went back to the house 2 extra times to be sure it was put inside without me even asking... I was SO appreciative as it allowed us to enjoy our time away without stressing or having to track down someone else to put it in!
Milena was fantastic! Not only did she kindly step in to help at the last second when another sitter had to cancel for an emergency, but she was great with my cats. Even my shy cat was willing to come out for her, which says a lot! Additionally I received frequent updates and excellent communication. Highly recommend
Second time booking Kristin because our cat loved her last time! We have new cats now and slightly more complicated instructions because our older boy has HCM and takes medicine. She expertly took care of this and also cut pills for him when we realized I hadn’t cut enough beforehand. She is very communicative and sends you the best photos! Already booked for our next trip. Would highly recommend for your kitties!
Yiheng was absolutely wonderful! I came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats, and everything was spotless. She took such great care of both my cats and my home. She sent lots of photos and detailed updates after every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I always knew how my cats were doing, what they ate, how they behaved, and all the little details that showed she was really paying attention to them. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about animals and treats them like her own. I would absolutely book with Yiheng again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring cat sitter!
Rachel has extensive experience caring for pets, is highly responsive, and always makes sure everything is clean and tidy before she leaves. It has been a pleasure working with her, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
She was absolutely wonderful! She took great care of my cats, kept me updated, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She’s such a sweet and kind person, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again if I ever need a cat sitter in the future. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring!
She took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away. One of our cats is extremely shy and skittish, and I was so impressed that she was able to earn his trust. She was reliable, trustworthy, attentive, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our cats were in such great hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!
I cannot recommend this sitter enough! They took absolutely wonderful care of my cat, Anya. They were incredibly responsible and detail-oriented—making sure to refill her dry food, top off her automatic water fountain, and even fill up her extra water bowls. They also gave her the exact treats I left out (freeze-dried treats and Temptations) and spent a long time actively playing with her. In addition, they also sent me the most beautiful, high-quality photos of her! I felt completely at ease. Highly, highly recommend!
Gina was great with my cat who warmed up really quickly to her. She is very friendly and has the patience to allow pets to get familiar with her. She made sure my cat was getting the care and playtime needed during the 4 days we were out of state. I highly recommend booking with her to watch your pets.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Laurel on Rover is $35.52 per visit (as of July 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 Laurel. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
