“Kathleen was beyond fantastic - super friendly and accommodating in every way. Her communication was great throughout, and she offered to take care of extra things for my cats that she saw might be needed as they popped up, which I really appreciated. This was my first experience using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better one. I'll definitely be booking with Kathleen again and 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for someone kind, responsive and responsible to help take care of your furbabies.”
About: I've owned cats my entire life and have been lucky enough recently to find myself adopted by a formerly aloof cat. I love the complex personalities of cats and there's nothing like a contently purring cat. Also, as someone with Multiple Sclerosis, cats suit the slower lifestyle I require. I work a regular Monday- Friday, 8am-4pm job. However, I have a lot of flexibility so I can work with your cat's schedule. I will love and treat your cat(s) as my own. I will hang out and give them lots of pets and attention while you're away.
“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”
About: I have taken care of many pets for friends and family. I have had experience with dogs of every size and every age and I can care for yours too! Currently I work full time with some rotating weekends in the future but I am available after 3pm and on days I am not working I can be available as early as 8am! I am also flexible with some times as long as we communicate! I am someone that would love to bring different toys and treats for your pets! I also don’t mind cleaning up after them as needed and love to emphasize stimulation for young dogs as well. Any accommodations you may need for your pet I am willing to abide by!
“Heather was awesome she did a great job taking care of my two cats while I was away in Ocean City for a week. She made sure that they were well fed happy, healthy,my house is still standing and she even collected my packages.”
“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!”
“Maria is absolutely outstanding! She was so awesome with our Pop and he loved being in her company. She always gave us regular updates and photos during our vacation which reduced our concern to next to nothing. We look forward to her being a regular part of his care 🩷”
“Not only did Kelly do a great job taking care of our cats, but her communications and updates were superb as well. Our cats are pretty skittish but they seemed to warm up to her quickly. Any minor issues that came up she promptly and effectively resolved. Overall, I felt confident that our cats were in good hands.”
“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!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats of all ages and health needs for over 10 years. My love of animals is vast and there is not one that I haven't loved instantly. I love long walks with my animals and would love to do that with yours as well. If you board with me just know your fur babies will have the most comfortable, safe, and loving experience with me! I can't wait to meet you both. Feel free to use my referral code for $20 off your first booking with me! (NEEJ82902, https://www.rover.com/sit/neej82902) I currently work from home and will have plenty of time to care for your pet. The flexibility of my work day allows me the ability to manage pet care that is pet and owner centered. I have an un fenced yard and many schools and parks within walking distance. I also have a cat and a dog who would love to keep your furry friend company!
“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!”
“Dory did a great job for me. It’s tough to let somebody that you don’t know well into your home and take care of your family when you aren’t there. Dory definitely alleviates the anxiety of those worries. She is trustworthy and follows instructions well. I will definitely be calling on her again for any of my pet care needs.”
About: My own senior dog is a rescue who has had special needs throughout her life, and caring for her has taught me so much about patience, compassion, and really paying attention to what an animal is communicating. I’ve learned to recognize their needs and boundaries and understand that every pet has their own personality and way of communicating. I’ve also pet-sat for friends and family over the years, and one of the best compliments I hear is, “Our pet seems to really love you!” I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. I treat every pet as an individual and give them the patience, attention, and affection they need. I am available for pet sitting, drop-ins or walks around my work schedule - my shifts are between 6-8 hrs Mon-Fri, so your pet will never have to wait too long for me to get back for a walk, feeding, or play time :) Weekends are typically more open and flexible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Having cared for my own rescue dog with special needs for many years, I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and paying attention to an animal’s individual needs. I want every pet in my care to feel safe and comfortable. I’ll follow your instructions and routines, keep a close eye on your pet, and communicate with you so you know how things are going while you’re away.
“Bridget is great with our dogs, she takes such good care of them! She was able to help us out on very short notice, and did a wonderful job taking care of all 4 of our dogs, and followed our instructions to the tee. Very quick to respond, and good with communicating during the check ins as well, we got lots of photos so we could see the dogs were doing well. A+ sitter, will be booking again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Middle River on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

As of September 2026, there are 2,353 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Middle River. 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.

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.
