About: Hello! I've had dogs all my life and worked as part of a rescue group for part of that time. I love dogs and have a lot of experience taking care of them. I can take them for walks, give them lots of attention and if they take any medication, I have experience with that as well. I'm good with any size dog since I've had a lot of different ones from Cocker Spaniels to Irish Wolfhounds. I don't have any "official" recommendations but I have pet sitted for friends of my family a time or two. I'm also good with multiple dogs, having grown up around 6-12 in my house at any given time, along with multiple cats. I would love to be able to pet sit for you! I currently work from home, so I am able to be flexible when it comes to taking care of your furry family members, rain or shine! I can do doggy daycare in my house if your furry friend gets along with mine, but also more than happy to take care of your pets in your home, whether taking them out for a walk, feeding them, or letting them out into the yard.

About: What sets me apart is the personal attention and genuine care I bring to every pet. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each animal’s unique personality, routines, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats, including pets who may be shy, older, or need a little extra patience and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am available to board pets most days of the week. I spend most of my time studying at home and I’m available during most days for a walk or a visit. I have a large fenced yard and live in an area with lots of parks and walkability. I also have some limited availability to care for your pet in your own home if desired.

“Kay truly goes above and beyond. She’s great at communicating and always keeps me in the loop, which gives me so much peace of mind. Even when I forget something last minute, she’s more than happy to help without any stress. I always know my kitties are well taken care of, fed on time, and have fresh water. I never worry when they’re with her.”

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and bring over five years of dedicated walking and sitting experience to the table. As a distance runner who loves training for races, I am a fantastic match for high-energy breeds that need to burn off steam with long, active routes. I am highly reliable, communicative, and dedicated to keeping your pup safe, exercised, and happy! I work a hybrid 9-5 job, but I am remote on Mondays and Fridays, and my hours are very flexible, so most days I don't leave for the office until 9:30 or I come home early around 3:30! I love taking my dogs out on walks in the morning when it is nice and cool outside to avoid the heat, as well as letting them out to play with me in the backyard so that they can stretch their legs. I love to give them extra pets and treats as a small reward for their physical activities.

About: I'm new to professional dog walking and eager to grow my experience. I've regularly walked my grandmother's dog, and I love being outdoors with animals. I'm reliable, patient, and will treat your dog with the same care I'd give my own family's pet. I'm happy to follow your routines and send updates along the way. I'm currently in school pursuing my master's degree. At the moment, I'm available on weekdays from 8:30 AM to 11:30 AM for walks, and I'm available from Saturday afternoon to Sunday afternoon for house sitting. I only provide care at my client's home, not my own, so your pet stays in their familiar environment, which I find reduces stress for most animals. When I'm in your home for walks or house sitting, I follow your established routine for feeding, playtime, and walks as closely as possible. I keep a close eye on your pet's behavior and comfort throughout, make sure doors and gates are secure, and send updates or photos so you can check in. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect and attention I'd want if the roles were reversed.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with plenty of hands-on experience caring for pets with different personalities, needs, and abilities. I have six cats of my own and also care for a feral cat colony, which has taught me a lot about patience, trust, and meeting animals where they are. I also help care for my family’s dogs, including a very happy three-legged mutt who reminds me every day that a disability doesn’t get in the way of a wonderful life! I’m comfortable administering medications to both cats and dogs, including insulin injections. I also practice cooperative care, helping animals feel safe and comfortable during medication and handling rather than making those experiences scary. I believe building trust and respecting an animal’s boundaries can make a huge difference in their well-being. When pet parents are away, I love doing more than just the basics. I enjoy spending quality time with animals, learning their personalities, and planning enrichment activities that keep them mentally stimulated, engaged, and happy. Whether that means playtime, sniffing games, puzzle feeders, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs. I also love learning all the little things that make your pets feel at home! Tell me their favorite treats, toys, hiding spots, sleeping spaces, blankets, routines, and quirky habits. The more I know about what makes them comfortable and happy, the better I can recreate the familiar comforts of home while you’re away. My goal is for your pets to feel like you’ve just stepped out for coffee rather than gone on vacation! I know how much pets mean to their families, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, compassion, and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, enriched, and well cared for while you’re away, so you can enjoy your time apart knowing they’re in good hands! I currently work a desk job but can visit your pet in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I unwind by spending time with animals, so being with your pet will probably be my favorite part of my day. It will not just be another item on my to do list. At home I live on a 1/3 of acer with a fenced in yard. Inside I have a 6 cats with lots of cat trees and space for cats to go up and get a good view of the world. We also have separate rooms for cats (or small dogs) to have their own space if they get overwhelmed or want their own space

About: Hi! I’m Bella Mason! I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14, grew up surrounded by animals, and even started my own pet-sitting business back home, which did really well! I’ve always had a huge love for animals and strive to be a reliable sitter who makes every pet feel like family. I know how hard it can be to leave your fur babies and just want someone you can trust to take the best care of them! I have experience with all types of animals, from dogs + cats, to goats, chickens, and hedgehogs. I am a college student at the University of Maryland. I would prefer not to schedule anything on Wednesdays, because that is my late night of classes, but all other days I am able to drop in before and after my classes. I unfortunately cannot petsit in my apartment, but I love to ask my client's to provide me "instructions" with every detail possible. I like to do meet-in-greets with animals/clients to ensure it is a good fit. I will follow instructions closely and precisely to ensure their routine stays in-tack.

About: I provide reliable dog care including walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, companionship, and medication if needed. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, adult, and senior dogs while following each pet’s routine. I use patience and positive reinforcement to encourage good behavior, and my flexible part-time schedule allows me to give every dog personalized attention and dependable care. My part-time schedule allows me to provide flexible, attentive care for pets while giving them the patience. I focus on trust, patience, and keeping each pet’s routine consistent while they’re in my care. I have a safe and comfortable space for pets when they are in my care, and when caring for pets in their own home, I am respectful of their space and routines.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for a ferret and a bearded dragon. I strive to be a calm, safe, and comforting presence so your pet feels secure while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep you updated every step of the way. I work full-time from Monday to Friday, but my job is not traditional and allows me flexibility with proper notice. I am free in the evenings, other than Thursdays. I am also free on the weekends. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect your home, pay close attention to their needs and behavior, and treat them with the same patience and love I give my own pets. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you always know how they’re doing.

About: Hello! As a college student, the last couple years have been the first time in my life when I didn't have a dog in the house. Growing up, we always had animals, as did my extended family, so not being around them has been kind of a bummer. I really enjoy taking care of animals. The sort of love we give and recieve from them is really special, and very important to me. I've been taking care of the family dogs (and cats!), since I was a preteen. Whenever a relative or friend went on a long trip, or a short one, I would be the they asked to check up on the dogs, stay with them, take care of them. Sometimes that meant staying in the home, other times just visiting throughout the day. I also have experience taking care of older dogs, young puppies, and those with special medical needs. For many years, my family had two dogs Jackson and Billie, who were brother and sister and had the same congenital condition. When they had flare-ups I took care of giving them their medicine and keeping an eye on them. I look forward to helping keep your pets safe, healthy, and happy! Luckily, I have quite a bit of flexibility built into my schedule. Most of the work I'm doing can be done from anywhere at most times of day. Because of this, there's some variation week-to-week and day-to-day but I'm happy to move things around to make things work for your family! Of course, all pets are different! I'm happy to work with you to make the best experience for your animal. I'm always delighted to play tug-of-war, fetch, or anything else! I go on multiple walks a day, everyday, so I'm very happy to bring some company along in the form of your pup. If your pets prefer to stay in, though, I can think of no better pastime than cuddling with them.

Olivia was a wonderful sitter for our three cats. We arranged her service at the last minute after our regular sitter was unavailable. Our cats immediately took to her as she lovingly extended her hand to meet them. They were fed, litter boxes were cleaned and they were calm when we returned. Great communication and it was a nice touch to get photo updates! I can highly recommend her service!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - New Carrollton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in New Carrollton is $33 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $33 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.

As of October 2026, there are 8,261 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across New Carrollton. 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 .

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in New Carrollton. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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 , 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.
