“Baylie stopped by several times to feed my fish and water my plants while I was gone on a long vacation. Appreciated her updates and pictures! Fish and plants were all happy and healthy when I got home. Thanks Baylie!”
“Hannah did a great job checking in on Arlo while we were out of town. She provided great updates and made sure to give him attention and affection. She was also very communicative and provided helpful updates after each visit. Highly recommend!”
“Elizabeth did a wonderful caring for my cats while I was away! She sent photos of them and let me know their antics (rearranging my carpets with their zoomies). Very easy to work with”
“Tiffany was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!!! She truly went above and beyond for our 2 kitties. She took perfect care of our home while we were gone and even washed her sheets and towels before she left, she even tidied up our litter room for us!! She was very responsive through the week sending lots of photos and was available for any check in or additional task we needed from her. She really prioritized our kitties play time and they clearly had an amazing time (given the graveyard of toys all over the house🤩). She even hand made these cute little toys, created little kitty forts with blankets and hand drew these adorable paper bugs she put on the windows to make sure they were stimulated in brand new ways!!! Tiffany will have our business as long as she is doing this and she will be recommended to all our friends. VERY THANKFUL FOR TIFFANY!!!”
“Emily did a wonderful job. She took the time to interact with our two cats. She secured the home and communicated regularly on her activities. We were very pleased with this service and the quality of our sitter.”
“Great service. Taylor kept in touch with me the entire time. My BigBoy was taken great care of and Thank you for the extras you took care of too. Will definitely use her again.”
“Michael was an awesome pet sitter for my 2 kitties. Each time Michael visited them, he made sure to spend quality time with them. He even worked himself to get the cats to come to him. My girl cat, it takes patience with her as she is very scared and hides and Michael really wanted her to get some attention. There was a slight break in her when Michael wanted to stop by to feed them dinner with my approval even though he was only instructed to just feed them breakfast. Good job Michael and think you so much for being available to take care of them! I will use you again in the future!”

About: Well with 10+ years of veterinary experience, I’m comfortable caring for cats with special needs and medications, anxiety, medical conditions, and unique personalities with patience. Veterinary care is a big part of my daily life. I work as a veterinary technician, so caring for animals, monitoring their needs, and keeping them comfortable is already part of my routine. I provide loving, attentive care in my home or yours, following routines and medications, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and special instructions while keeping pets comfortable.
About: I currently work at a veterinary hospital, where caring for animals is part of my daily routine.

About: Hi, I'm Michael, a dependable pet lover in the Pasadena, MD area. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits, and every visit includes fresh water, feeding on your schedule, potty breaks, playtime, and a quick photo update so you know how your pet is doing. I have been a pet owner ever since 1995 and am comfortable with all sizes and types. I'm careful and patient and treat every pet like family. I'm available during the week and most hours and I live close by, so I can be flexible for last-minute visits. I have reliable transportation and I always show up on time. I'd love to meet you and your pet before the first booking so we can go over routines, quirks, and anything special they need. Thanks I am currently working part time doing deliveries and pet care. I have a full fenced back yard and a basement if crates are needed but prefer to keep animals out of crates. I have a fenced in yard and my house is sectioned off top and bottom, as well as rooms that can be used for the animals as needed.

So whatever you need me to do in your home for your fur baby! I will do! If that is putting them in a crate, leaving them in a specific spot in the house, playing in the backyard. Whatever routine you have for them I will do!
“I had a great experience with Ademide. She agreed to cat-sit on short notice and looked after my Luna for a whole week and some days. Our communication was smooth and reassuring and I received timely updates, cute videos and photos that showed my cat was comfortable and happy. My cat seemed relaxed and well looked after when I returned. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”

Baylie is wonderful! I highly recommend her. She really helped me out with an unexpected last minute request, which I greatly appreciated. She is friendly, professional, and fantastic with the pets. We will definitely book again with her. Thank you so much, Baylie!
Katie was wonderful to work with. She was very communicative, responsive and was great at getting to know and work with our sensitive cats. Even our grouchy cat opened up to her. She was also flexible in accommodating medication routines, the needs of a senior cat, and kind details like putting squirrel and bird food out to keep our cats entertained while we were away. We will definitely book with her again!
Elizabeth was great with our two cats! We had specific instructions about keeping them separate and mixing medicine into food, & she kindly agreed to a meet & greet to make sure she received the details & met our girls. We felt good about leaving them in her hands, & everything was the way we left it when we returned. Thanks Elizabeth!
Arem was a great sitter! He made sure our cat was good, played with, fed, and everything was okay each day. He sent us daily updates with how she was doing along with photos of her, so we had a chance to see her as well. He was very communicative and made sure we were updated on everything. I would highly recommend him!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 6,323 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Oakwood. 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
