“Molly helped me and Tigger in a very huge way by watching the for a couple of nights while l was moving. She sent pictures and have updates at least twice a day and I am very grateful for it as Tigger is not use to contact outside of my home. I will certainly look Molly's way again in the future”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of my rabbit, Cypher, while I was away. She sent lots of pics and didn’t mind cleaning his cage to keep him comfortable and happy. Staying on schedule with his food is a big one for me and she did well at keeping things according to plan. I’m super glad I had her help while on vacation!”
“Laura was great! She sent the cutest photos during every visit and actually spent time with our cats. She was attentive, punctual, and followed the plans. Great care- thank you Laura!”
“Erica did a fantastic job watching our cat while we were away. She gave daily updates, lots of pictures, and we are already trying to book her for our next vacation. Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth was amazing to work with. Incredibly professional, friendly and responsive. I felt so safe leaving her with my cat Shredder, especially given her background in pet care and veterinary medicine. Thank you so much for your grace and understanding during the past 2 weeks, it truly meant a lot to me. 100% would recommend to anyone in the area seeking pet care.”
“This is the second time we have booked with Jun and we will continue to book with him for as long as he is pet sitting. Our shy, people-adverse kitty warmed up to him immediately and he treats her like she is his own pet. We can’t recommend Jun enough!!”

About: Hi there, I’m Gaby! I’ve had 2 dogs in my home since I can remember and have been a cat mom since 2024. My family has adopted each of our dogs from rescue shelters and I got my fur baby from BARCS. I love to meet new animals, play with fur babies, and give all the loving possible. I am always up for play time, a walk, or cuddles if needed! With hybrid work availability I would love to help care for any animals that may need some extra assistance while you’re working or away for the day/weekend. I am available most days/nights and almost every weekend if necessary throughout the summer. I am open to stopping by, walks and other activities. Often free on weekends and early mornings for extra walks and cuddles. Maintaining their routine and whatever is most helpful to their needs. Follow schedule if so. I am often working from home and available. Let the animal acclimate, lots of cuddles (or personal space), walks around the neighborhood. Make sure it is comfortable for the pup and their needs

About: I’ve been around animals and pet care my entire life. My dad is a veterinarian, so growing up, I had the unique opportunity to learn about animal behavior and care from an early age. Because of that, I’ve developed a strong understanding of both dogs’ and cats’ personalities, body language, and needs. I have 8 years of experience walking dogs and providing drop-in visits, and I’m comfortable caring for pets with a variety of personalities and routines. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including tablets, ear drops, and eye drops, and I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m a proud dog and cat mom myself, so I know firsthand how much trust goes into leaving your pets in someone else’s care. Outside of pet sitting, I work in the research field at Johns Hopkins. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love getting to know each pet I care for. My goal is always to make your pets feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away! I have a flexible and hybrid work schedule, so I am able to accommodate drop in visits, walks and any other services needed. Happy to help!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who treats every pet like a cherished member of the family. My hands-on pet care experience includes: Senior Dog Care & Special Needs: Over a decade of caring for senior dogs—including my own 10-year-old Chiweenie—so I’m deeply familiar with gentle handling, administering oral medications, adjusting to slower mobility, and sticking strictly to sensitive dietary routines. Feline Companionship: Experience managing feeding schedules, fresh litter maintenance, playful engagement, and reading cat body language to ensure they feel safe, calm, and respected on their own terms. Daily Walking & Exercise: Dependable, safety-focused dog walking structured around your pup's energy level—from brisk neighborhood walks to relaxed sniffing strolls. Balancing work, family, and daily commitments means my schedule is structured, reliable, and predictable. Because I manage my daily routines with clear flexibility, I can seamlessly integrate high-quality pet care into every morning, afternoon, and evening. Peace of Mind: Complete in-home reliability with clear communication and detailed daily photo updates after every visit, so you always know your fur baby is safe and content.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. As a proud cat parent to my own cat, I know how much peace of mind matters when you have to leave your furry family members behind. While I'm new to the Rover platform, pet care is second nature to me—back in college, I regularly helped my classmates with pet sitting, looking after both dogs and cats. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk or your cat needs some gentle loving attention, I treat every pet with the exact same care and devotion I give my own. Because I work remotely and part-time from home, my schedule is wonderfully flexible. I am basically free and can easily find time for your pet any day or any time. Whether it's a mid-day walk or constant companionship, we can easily figure out a routine that works best for you and your pet! Safety and trust are my absolute top priorities. Whether I am dropping in for pet sitting or taking your dog out for an engaging walk, I treat every pet with the utmost care and respect. As an experienced cat owner myself, I understand how crucial it is to respect an animal's boundaries, safety needs, and home environment. You can count on me for clear communication, reliable updates, and treating your home and pets like my own.

“Shawnna took great care of our kitty during our trip. She was very conscientious, communicative and left our home very tidy. We would love to have check in on our sweet girl again!”
About: I’ve recently started pet sitting for friends and family and found it very rewarding. At home I am use to looking after my dog Remy who is an 90 pound poodle mix along with my cat Mia. They both are a handful but they are members of the family that have prepared me for looking after others. I am currently attending graduate school and am looking to start work near my home. I am always looking for opportunities to pay my way while helping others. I will work to make time in my schedule to accommodate yours! I always try and be friendly and patient. At home my dog Remy takes medication nightly while also having quiet the personality. His boisterous nature can be hard to rein in but when he is given his time he settles.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Middle River
Kathleen is the best! This is our 2nd time booking her to care for our 3 cats while we're away, and she went above and beyond yet again, cleaning up after our elderly cats who had accidents, on top of the great care she takes in feeding them, ensuring they have clean water and litter boxes, and just checking up that they're all doing ok. We appreciate her so much!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Middle River is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $28 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.

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.
