“We always book Cathy Jo and she does such a great job with our cats. Even our very shy one is used to her coming around, which helps a lot with lowering his anxiety 🖤”

About: I have experience with “basic training” meaning sit, paw, wait at door to potty, wait to eat unless given approval (meaning not to rush to eat and wait for me to put food in the bowl). I have grown up with dogs my whole life and I have loved and cared for every single one of them until they have passed away from cancer or natural causes. I have 2 pups currently that I have rescued one from abuse and one from the animal shelter. If I could have more animals I definitely would but it is not possible for me (it could be if my husband approved lol). Pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine because I am currently 2 month postpartum and have become a stay at home mom. I would love to be able to help take care of animals while pet parents are going on vacation or have to work long excessive hours or just in general need of help when needed. I have a fenced in yard. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats currently with one recently passing away a year ago from a virus that didn’t show up until she was 2 years old (genetic). My cats have one cat litter box (automatic one) and it cleanse itself, however it needs a deep cleaning once a month or every other month. I teach my 2 pups how to sit, give paw, and wait for my command to start eating and go to door when needing to go potty.

“John came to check in on our two cats during a long weekend. Every day, he was punctual and provided a written summary of how they're doing and how they behaved during the check-in, along with pictures. He is very respectful of the space within our home, and is an excellent communicator. While our cats are still learning to adjust to John's presence, he expresses an eagerness to make this transition easier and more comfortable, learning to adjust his own approach with each visit. We look forward to John's check-ins, in the future.”

He has done both house/pet sitting, where he stays in my place for 1 week or more, and also just drop ins to walk the dogs and feed the cats/litter box when I have to be gone for extended hours. I literally never worry about any of my babies, even the elderly Cavalier on like 7 meds, because Steven is so good with them and super reliable. I recommend him to anyone at any time!”

More excellent service from Amanda! She is our go-to person to care for our two cats when we’re out of town.

I never hesitate to leave my cat in Kristina's care. He has a heart condition and takes two medications daily. I can always count on Kristina being there. She takes care of everything he needs (pills, food, water, litter box), and provides the petting that he loves, during her visits. You won't regret hiring Kristina!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Laurel

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Laurel on Rover is $19.98 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 1,236 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Laurel. 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 with handling special pet needs in Laurel. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
