“Matilda is very dependable and conscientious. Our Cat love is very comfortable with her and I can tell because if Milo is stressed, she looses hair on her ears. After being gone over 2 1/2 week and Matilda caring for her, Milo did not loose any hair at all! That might sound silly, but it shows us how much our cat trusts Matilda.”
“Very grateful for Majdoline. My cats warmed up to her very quickly and she went above and beyond to follow my instructions thoroughly and precisely. I felt very confident leaving my home and cats in her care and appreciated all the photos and updates. Will definitely be reaching out again for my next trip.”
“Mason was extremely polite and very knowledgeable about all things cat and kitten. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the area in need of short notice services or in general!!”
About: I’ve taken care of various different species of dogs and cats within my neighborhood and area since I was 10! I’ve always been an animal lover so many of my neighbors counted on me to take care of their fur babies! Within this years worth experience, I have learned to work with different species of dogs & cats! I am able to work with cats and dogs of different personalities, traits, needs, etc! Neighbors have relied and trusted me to feed, walk, bathe, spend time and show loving to their beloved pets! I’m currently a part time collage student but I still have a lot of time to play, care for and show so much love to your fur babies! I am available Monday, Wednesday, Thursdays, Friday, and Sunday after 12:30 pm!🧡 In my clients home, I always ensure the pets safety! I make sure to check surrounding and keep things out of reach that could harm the animal! I always make sure to introduce myself slowly as I am in their home and allow them to get comfortable with me at their own pace. I always ensure to go through and memorize their routines and feeding schedules. I always respect the home owners home as well and make sure it stays clean!
About: I love connecting with dogs and cats alike, and giving them all the attention and/or same-room-companionship they need. I understand that a pet spends all day waiting to see and be with their human, so I'm happy to make that wait just a little shorter and easier. I'll cuddle, give scratches, and play for as long as they like - I'm happy to just hang out with the introverted ones, too. Animals fill me with joy, so I'll do whatever I can to make them feel happy too! My experience comes from growing up with dogs and cats in the family - they were always like another sibling in the house. All the responsibilities were given to me and my sibling, so I know how to treat a furry-baby like family and with love. Right now I've got my own cat, Beatrix, who is the Queen of the Castle (rightfully so). I regularly board my parents' dog, Buddy, whenever they go traveling. He's like my lil brother! In my day-to-day, I am an actress, writer, producer, and director, so I've got the playful spirit your pupper or kitten may need! I also do senior home care in Ellicott City, MD, making me a great person to care for your home as well as your loved ones. Right now I work consistently part-time on weekdays in the mornings until the early afternoon, so my late afternoons and evenings are available for pet care. I always treat another person's home with complete respect, only entering spaces I'm meant to be in and handling items I'm meant to handle. I will always double check windows and doors for security after a visit.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and active dog walker who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. Whether your dog needs a quick walk, a longer outing, or just some attention during a drop-in visit, I’m here to help. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs, whether that’s high energy exercise or a slower, relaxed walk. During drop-in visits, I can also handle feeding, fresh water, playtime, and quick updates so you know everything is going well. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! I’m available everyday of the week unless there is conflict. I’m very flexible and can work with whatever time works best for you . No time is too early or too late I respect the owners home and make sure to stay where I belong . I make sure the pet is safe and visible . I like to keep them engaged and play with them .
About: I have had cats since 2018, when we went to a shelter and found a little orange fluff hiding under another cat. Since then, my family has accumulated a gang of 8 cats! Some younger, some older, I have experience with kittens as well as older cats. I don’t have as much experience with dogs, just occasionally walking them but I am looking to learn and happy to tend to every pet’s needs! I am available late evenings and on weekends for any needs and to meet all the fur babies! I have a full time job, but I am free after 4-5 PM on weekdays, and all day on weekends. I will follow any specific needs your pets need. At home, I have 2 cats who love to chase each other around. They have space to roam, and they are indoor only!
About: I‘ve taken care of my sister’s shiba for 2-3 years whenever they vacation or I’m visiting. Love walks, getting in our steps, and teaching new tricks. I am a recent college graduate in brain science and psychology. I’m always open to dog walk!! Feel free to reach out and I can see what I can do for you! Honestly, I care for pets however the owner needs. I love a detailed schedule or a written list of care preferences (helps me keep organized) but it’s not necessary.
“We were very satisfied with our first boarding experience. Smokey acclimated the sitter much faster than anticipated. He enjoyed his stay and bonded with the sitter in less than one week. We will definitely use her services again when we travel. This was a long trip (17 days) during the 2025 holiday season.”
About: I have 10+ years of helping out friends, families, and neighbors with their fur babies. I am friendly, responsible, and punctual. Would love to connect! I currently work full time, however my schedule is flexible so I can cater to your needs! Looking to help out several days/ week. Thanks! I can promise your animals will be in very good hands! I am detail oriented & go above and beyond for my clients. I know how important is to find a caring and responsible pet sitter and I strive to be that for my clients.
“This was my first time trying the Rover service and Jesse did a wonderful job. This was a long sit, with me traveling for 4 weeks, and I was nervous about leaving my kitty alone for so long. Jesse was very accommodating, attentive, and communicative with updates to let me know how things were going. Kitty seemed to really take to her, being as friendly and cuddly with her as she is with me, which I haven't seen her do with anyone else yet. Jesse also kept my plants alive and was very clean. I'd recommend Jesse and plan on requesting her services again in the future.”
“Elliot was great with Peanut! He kept us updated on everything, including when Peanut peed or 💩, and let us know if he noticed Peanut eating something he shouldn’t. We really appreciated how attentive and communicative he was. Highly recommend! 🐾”
“Tabitha was great with my cat who is not often a people person. She consistently gave her play time and tended to the litter box. I would definitely book her again.”
“Lilla did an amazing job taking care of my cats. she sent lots of photos and detailed visit summaries, and even replaced my feeder ball that had broken while I was out of town. I definitely recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 11 years old! They’ve ranged from dogs to cats to turtles to birds and more! I’ve loved every second of it and I would be honored to care for you fur baby, too! I’m currently working remotely with great flexibility so I’m able to work around whatever you need! It gives me the ability to care for pets on your schedule! I love to learn what a typical day for your pet looks like so I can adapt to their needs! Some pets need playtime to keep them happy and engaged and some pets need a calm environment to relax in - wherever your pet falls, I’ll be ready to accommodate!

Marianne’s 12 day visits with our 2 kitties went smoothly, including administering the medicine needed for our older cat. We appreciated the pictures and comments Marianne posted after each visit. The girls were calm and happy to see us. We’ll definitely book with Marianne again.
Nathalie is an outstanding cat sitter. We came home to very happy, healthy, and well loved cats. Nathalie was a great communicator about how our cats were doing and helped us work through getting them used to their new feeders. We loved the daily photos and the clear peace of mind knowing they were being taken care of so professionally.
Yasmine is the best person you could possibly have to care for your fur baby! All week I received detailed visit reports and many adorable pictures. First time I had left my 7 year old big kitty but after first visit knew he was in the best of hands! Yasmine even washed the couch cover when he threw up and took out trash/litter which I never would have expected. She figured out his favorite thing is to snuggle on top of you and indulged him. Yasmine will be one I call when need arises and I strongly recommend her!!!!!!
Very grateful for Majdoline. My cats warmed up to her very quickly and she went above and beyond to follow my instructions thoroughly and precisely. I felt very confident leaving my home and cats in her care and appreciated all the photos and updates. Will definitely be reaching out again for my next trip.
Madison has been so great! She was consistent, responsible and always on time. Our cats were well taken care of and seemed happy. She gave us status for every drop in visit so we felt informed and at ease. We certainly recommend Madison to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
Vatia was wonderful and took great care of my kitten, Tody, while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, and always kept me updated with photos and messages after each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear she genuinely cared about making sure he was happy, comfortable, and well looked after. She also handled an unexpected situation with incredible professionalism and kindness, and I really appreciated her understanding throughout it all. I came home to a happy, healthy kitten, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would absolutely book with Vatia again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!
I'm very happy with the care Kristy gave my cats. She went above and beyond, and I really appreciated how communicative she was and how she provided pictures and a thorough report after each drop-in visit. I would highly recommend her to others and plan to utilize her services in the future.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Laurel is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $36 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
