“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 taking care of our fur babies, was very reponsive and thoughful! One of our cats had an upset stomach and we really appreciated the extra care.”
“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”
“We’re absolutely thrilled with the incredible job Brina did. Our house was immaculate when we arrived (which is hard to do with two senior kitties who don’t always make it in the litter box). She took such wonderful care of our kitties and our home and we feel so lucky to have found her. Not only was she an expert at medicating two senior cats but she also alerted us of an alarm going off in our basement and stayed overtime to figure out what it was and turn it off. We will definitely be booking Brina again, we have never had such a good cat sitter!! Truly a gem!”
“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.”
“Ashley took very good care of my elderly cat. She always responded promptly, arrived right on time for a pre-sitting interview and to pick up a key, as well as to messages. She takes the responsibility of caring for a pet very seriously, and is knowledgeable about the needs of cats.”

I have watched dogs of all ages as well! I’m currently a college student so I have plenty of time to play with pets on days I don’t have class, and during class days I can stop by and do quick potty breaks! I love to make sure that pets have everything they need, including lots of pets and cuddles. I have one dog of my own at home as well!

I enjoy going on long walks and allowing your pups to get their energy out while you are busy!
“Darius was absolutely wonderful with my cat. She is normally slow to warm up to people but she came right over to him and was happy to play with him. She was very well cared for while I was away. I would use Darius again.”
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.
About: I have been dog sitting off n on since I was 13 years old. I have taken care of dogs as young as 1 years old up to 14 years old. I also have experience with giving medication if your doggy needs it! I currently work full time. I work the midnight shift (11pm-7am) So I'm pretty free thru out the day. 🙂 My sleep schedule is crazy so I don't mind coming multiple times a day! 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!
About: Hi my name is Aayana, i am 28 and i live in the Glen Burnie area but i have a car and can easily travel to and from to walk your pet or to pet sit. I am very passionate about animals and their wellbeing! I’ve had pets all of my life and know the struggles of balancing work and pleasure while also caring for a pet. Generally my family or friends ask me to care for their pets when they are out of town, and I also regularly pet sit for 2 families throughout the year. I also used to be an independent contractor through “Love Those Paws” and “WAG” where i had dogs, cats and other animals to care for! When i’m not caring for pets you can find me enjoying a movie or tv show, painting, hoop dancing or doing hair or lash extensions. I take on demand walks in my free time but generally prefer scheduled/reoccurring walks. Im a small person (100lbs) so my max is 3 dogs to walk at a time and i generally try to find local paths to walk. I am experienced in administering medication for pets I create my own schedule, so i have (mostly) complete flexibility! Mondays & Tuesdays i take & pick up my child from school, so there’s about an hour in the morning and afternoon that i am not available. I do not do boardings at my own house as 2 of my cats have anxiety and introducing a new animal would cause unnecessary stress for them. However, i will do house sittings at the owners home! I currently have 2 families that i have worked with for 3 years that i house/pet sit for throughout the year.
“We were very satisfied with our first boarding experience. Smokey acclimated the sitter much faster than anticipated. He enjoyed his stay and bonded with the sitter in less than one week. We will definitely use her services again when we travel. This was a long trip (17 days) during the 2025 holiday season.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Oakwood
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 .

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.
