About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life. I grew up with dogs and have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I take into account their routine. In addition to owning dogs, I've also fostered cats, which has given me experience helping animals adjust to new environments and providing patient, attentive care. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work with each client’s schedule to make sure their pet’s routine stays as normal as possible. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to adapt my schedule to meet your pet’s individual needs and provide them with the care and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make their comfort, safety, and routine my top priorities. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication instructions (if provided), and any special preferences. I also make sure they receive plenty of affection, companionship, and positive attention so they feel relaxed and cared for while their owner is away. I treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I would give my own.
“I had a great experience with Melissa! She was on time, very careful, and clearly genuinely cared about my cat. She spent plenty of time playing with him and making sure he was comfortable and happy. I really appreciated how attentive and responsible she was, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend her and will happily book with her again!”
“Sharon came every day at the time she said she would and took care of two difficult cats, one of whom needed different medicine in morning and evening. I would recommend her highly!”
“Krystian is always great with our pet’s! They love the care and attention they receive when he comes to check in on them. I always get lots of pictures from the visits. They are always super happy which makes me happy.”
“I want to share my deep appreciation for Ashley taking very good care of my two cats while I was away for 17 days. She was so communicative and always kept me up to date. She has a lot of knowledge about animals and was very helpful when one of the cats was having trouble with anxiety and diarrhea while I was away. She also cleaned up several messes, which I hugely appreciated. I would trust Ashley to take care of my cats any time and definitely would like Ashley to be my regular cat sitter. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you!”
“Julianna is great! She is always very clear in her communication, and I know my cat is in good hands when she’s checking on her! Would definitely recommend Julianna to others!”
“Jason was awesome again! Even though I forgot to leave my key for him, he contacted me immediately and even offered to come back at a later time if I had another way for him to get in. Thank you for your kindness and I hope you can drop in again for Petunia soon.”
“Teffni was amazing! Was super communicative with us while we were gone, sent us pictures and made sure she had all the information about our cat prior to us leaving!”
“Judson is the best catsitter we’ve had. He’s attentive, caring, and consistent. He gets on the floor with the cats and interacts with them and plays with their toys. Our cats are a bit spastic and weird about strangers but they warmed up to Judson quickly which is always a great sign. He sent us multiple pictures every day of the cats along with a note about how they were doing. Choosing a random person on an app is nerve wracking and stressful because you’re putting all your trust in them to not only take care of your animals but also be in your home. Judson is trustworthy and respectful, but he also has a great sense of humor! I would recommend him again and again.”
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a kid, and as soon as I was able to, started walking dogs in my neighborhood in middle school. My family ended up owning 4 dogs at one point and I’ve been one of their primary caregivers for the past 10 years! Between jobs at the moment, so I’m available any night for dog-sitting. I’m also able to pop in to walk dogs throughout the day, as my days are mostly free. I can prepare food, get fresh water, give medications, brush teeth if needed. Happy to follow any particular instructions needed for your pet to keep them happy, calm, and healthy!
“Wow! And WOW again! My two cats were totally gratified with every bit of Xin's detailed care for 3 weeks. And so am I! And she swooped back in when my return flights delayed my return to home which was great. All my upcoming trips will be with Xin - no doubt about it.”
“Aubree is great! My shy cat became friends with her right away. She sent detailed updates every day, and it was a great comfort knowing my cat was in such good hands. I hope she’s available every time I need to travel because we will definitely book her again. 10/10 recommend”
About: As I have evolved, I've found connecting and caring for fur babies brings pure joy. I am here to support your journey with your loved pets. I'm a yoga instructor and teach only on Wednesdays. Im available other weekdays and weekends, anytime after 11am usually. Im able to adjust per requests. I would prefer to care for pets in client's home, where they can be most comfortable with all resources readily available. I'm available to take dogs for walks/day sit.
About: I have spent my entire life caring for and loving animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, horses, birds, rabbits, and other small pets. As both a pet owner and caregiver, I have experience with feeding, exercise, grooming, administering basic care, and training dogs. Animals have always been a true passion of mine, and I understand how important it is to provide them with patience, attention, safety, and affection. Now that I have more available time, I look forward to helping pet owners feel confident their beloved companions are receiving the same loving care I would give my own. I’m currently retired and do some volunteer work, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available during the week and some weekends. I live in an area surrounded by open green space and walking trails. It’s a safe area for pets to walk around and enjoy.
“Rachel was so wonderful and saved me from having to cancel a trip. I had previously arranged care for my dog that fell through at the last minute. Rachel was more than happy to step in and helped me come up with an alternate plan so he would be well cared for while I was gone.”
“I had never use pet service but we had just moved and all of a sudden needed help during the day to let our dogs out - Rachel was great - good with our elderly dogs, made sure she knew what they needed before she had her first appt with them, sent me photos when she arrived and let me know how visit went. I was so relieved. Thank you!”
“Barbara is wonderful! I feel safe leaving my kitty to her care. I am grateful she is able to give him all his meds along with all the snuggles. I am kept up to date and appreciate all the photos and little comments with every visit. She is responsive, clear with expectations, and answers any questions I have. Thanks!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - North Bethesda
Gracie was wonderful from start to finish! She was very communicative, quick to respond, flexible, and genuinely so nice. When she came to care for our cat, she was incredibly thorough and attentive. We especially appreciated the detailed end-of-care summary with lots of photos—it gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We will definitely book her again for future needs and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and thoughtful pet sitter!
Ilana is great! She took care of our senior cat Fifi while we were away for a week and a half. It was a bit of a last minute request and Ilana was very accommodating. We felt very comfortable going out of town knowing Fifi was in Ilana’s care. She kept us updated the entire time, giving us peace of mind so that we could enjoy our time away. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be reaching out again next time we need someone to drop in on Fifi.
I had a great experience with Melissa! She was on time, very careful, and clearly genuinely cared about my cat. She spent plenty of time playing with him and making sure he was comfortable and happy. I really appreciated how attentive and responsible she was, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend her and will happily book with her again!
Ashley was wonderful with Oliver. She took great care and attention to detail, ensuring all of his needs and favorites were incorporated into her visits. Further, during a fire alarm she safely “trucked” this senior, well-fed and highly vocal kitty outdoors until the all clear was given. Greatly appreciative of her loving and caring for my kitty while away
Anastasia took care of our kitty for several days (2 visits to our home a day), and we couldn't be more pleased. Besides providing food and water, she also had to clean up several messes. She has a great attitude, was super responsive and conscientious, and kept us up-to-date on how our cat was doing. We would love to hire her again.
We had a wonderful experience with Yuandi. She was communicative, attentive, and clearly very experienced with cats. From the photos and videos she shared, I could tell that my cat felt completely comfortable with her, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking with Yuandi again in the future and would highly recommend her to other cat owners.
Melody did a wonderful job with our cat Isabel for a week while we were gone! Even though Isabel was a little suspicious at first, Melody was patient with her and won her over. Melody was also super professional, communicative, and responsive throughout our entire booking. We'll definitely keep her in mind for future cat-sitting needs, and we'd highly recommend her to others!
I've only ever used friends and family to watch my pets so was a little nervous about the idea of booking a stranger but Jana was so wonderful, put me right at ease, and set the bar so high for pet sitters! Right away I knew she was going to be a fantastic sitter. She was quick with her responses, prompt with her check ins and photos and clearly loves animals. My cat was so well taken care of while I was gone and I'm looking forward to continuing using Jana's services!
Judson is the best catsitter we’ve had. He’s attentive, caring, and consistent. He gets on the floor with the cats and interacts with them and plays with their toys. Our cats are a bit spastic and weird about strangers but they warmed up to Judson quickly which is always a great sign.

Judson is trustworthy and respectful, but he also has a great sense of humor! I would recommend him again and again.
Alisyah is really great at communicating key pick up and giving detailed updates every day! I always received multiple photos of my cats and images to confirm feeding etc. My cats liked her almost immediately and were very well taken care of. I didn’t worry about them the whole trip!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in North Bethesda on Rover is $22.2 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 8,050 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across North Bethesda. 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 North Bethesda. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
