“John checked in on my terribly scared and shy cat while I was out of town. He managed to find my cats hiding spots and snap a few cute pictures. Everything went well, no issues. Thanks so much.”
“This was my first time using Rover and i had concerns about a stranger caring for my cats and in my house. Melisha came for a meet n greet and knew all the right questions to ask. It was evident she was experienced in pet care. She was on time for each visit and sent lots of photos. A great communicator. She even alerted us to a strange vehicle in our driveway. I will be hiring her for my next vacation !”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for 15 years! I’ve had animals at our home since I was 6 years old! I remember when I was 6 years old I asked my parents for a puppy and grew up with him! I then have had other dogs and cats throughout my whole life, and I’d take care of them any chance I could! Especially when my grandma and parents were out of town and weren’t able to! Pet care fits into my schedule very easily! I work from home so pet sitting accommodates with my schedule! I’m also free weekends and any day during the week! I have a little poodle myself, very friendly with other animals! He’s 2 years old and very loving and caring. If you need to drop your animals off at my house, I will feed, bathe, walk them! I’m also more than willing to take care of your pets at your home! I can also stay overnight on weekends and take care of your pets by showing them unconditional love, making sure they’re loved and cared for and fulfill their needs!
“Olivia is an absolute gem! I’m SO lucky she was available, last minute to take care of my two babies! I was in town on vacation but got invited to Desert Hot Springs for the day and didn’t know what to do with the pups! Olivia came by twice, played with them and took them for walks and most of all gave me peace of mind 💖! She sent pics and was so sweet and helpful! I will DEFINITELY rebook next time in town (which is often, coming from SF)!”
About: I have had cats and a dog that I made sure were well taken care of. I love taking care of animals whether mine or other people's. I work in the mornings until 12pm and have off in the afternoon, so I will have time in the afternoon and evenings to take care of other people's animals I have several leashes to use to walk dogs and I have gates and crates that I can block of certain areas of the house to make sure they are safe.
“I can't say enough good things about Ember! She was fantastic. We had her housesit and watch our kitty for a week, and Ember's daily updates and photos put me at ease knowing my "little girl" was doing just fine. Plus, her sense of humer had me laughing and several of the updates. Our kitty likes to go outside during the day, so I slept well knowing she was safe and sound inside each night. Ember went above and beyond by keeping our house clean and even washing sheets and towels before her stay ended. I look forward to booking Ember for our next trip.”
About: I was an obedience instructor in high school, and took my Sheltie, Mistie, to earn our CD at dog shows. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and feel like I trust them more than people. I’ve never met a dog I was afraid of - bring on your “terrifying” pittie, we’ll be besties within an hour. I’m also great with the teeny, tiny dogs - I’m calm and soothing which puts them at ease. I work part time in Baltimore, so I am available most of the time! I love going on walks and exploring. I also love cuddles on the couch, as well as a fast-paced game of fetch! I will obsessively keep your baby in a leash when we are outside, and well as keep him/her away from other dogs, while out-and-about.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - McSherrystown
Jake was extremely professional and easy to work with. I needed drop in coverage to manage my cat’s medications and special diet while he was at my elderly parents’ home. Jake was so understanding and accommodating of their needs- they were very happy with the experience and totally comfortable working with him. All of his communication was clear and timely. I would absolutely hire Jake again!
Alexis did a wonderful job taking care of my cats. In addition to ensuring they had their food and snacks, she spent time giving them lots of love. They were very content when we came home. I would recommend Alexis to anyone who wants to trust someone with their pets.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 818 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across McSherrystown. 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 .
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 , 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 .
