“Heather was great! I have a pack of five dogs and she handled them so well. One of them is incredibly shy and even he started coming around after a couple days. She communicated very well, showed up for all appointments, and my dogs seemed very happy to have her around. Thank you! 🐾”
“Harrison was great! He was super flexible and communicative. He also checked in a couple times before the drop ins to ensure he had all the necessary information to care for Guillermo. He sent multiple pictures and provided an update for each visit, which I really appreciate. Thanks Harrison!”
“Absolutely wonderful. Very flexible and did amazing with my senior doggo. My dog is very weary of new people but she Absolutely loved her. My cat who is afraid of literally EVERYONE warmed up to her as well. I was so nervous about leaving my babies and she did amazing with setting me at ease. Would 1000000% recommend especially with senior pets!.”
“Jessica did a great job checking in on our puppies while we are out of town. She was able to assist us with last minute request! Our pets love her and she provides timely updates and pictures on how they are doing. Jessica has become our go to provider for pet sitting and check ins.”
“Katie has cared for my three cats several times, and I have never been more comfortable with someone caring for them while I'm away. She sends great photos, cleans up what needs cleaned, and plays with them really well. I have a couple cats that are pretty anxious, and they have really warmed up to her. I can't think of a better compliment than that”
“Wow! Sarah has been walking Wrango since Feb. 2018. She is quick to point out anything she notices that could be a potential problem. She noticed last week he had diarrhea, which I then monitored and called our vet. He had an intestinal infection which could have been serious. Sarah saved Wrango. It doesn’t get better than that!!”
“Hahahaa your review made me laugh. Chino is my sweet baby boy. He’s not really a baby anymore, more like a mischievous teenager haha! I’m happy you caught him! Thank you for that! And thank you soooo much for helping with Daisy on such short notice. I’m sure you made her night.”
“Liza first visit with Tater Tot was amazing! Her pictures and updates were great and left me feeling really good that my baby was in such great hands!!! I’m sure Tater Tot is going to look forward to spending more time with Liza!”
“Courtney was absolutely amazing. She sent plenty of photos along with thoughtful, detailed updates, and my cat clearly adored her. I’m so grateful for her — especially for being so flexible on such short notice. I would book her again in a heartbeat, 1000%!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was young. I grew up with dogs in my home and currently have two dogs of my own, so I know how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to find someone you can trust with them. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I truly love all fur babies and would be so excited to care for yours! 🐾❤️ I am currently a part time student at Anne Arundel community college. I also have a part time job. My weekends are available. Weekdays I have a lot of free time during the day between classes before I head to work at 2:30-5:30 (usual hours). Safety is my top priority when caring for your pets. I will always make sure they are supervised, secure, and comfortable, whether we are out on a walk, during a drop-in visit, or staying overnight. I follow each pet’s routine and any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and anything else that helps them feel at home.
“Taylor goes above and beyond when caring for our senior cat Karma. She sends great updates with pictures and keeps me informed. I could not have asked for a better sitter and we will continue to use her.”
“Leticia did a great job taking care of my cat Madison. Madison is a loner and doesn't warm up to people but he trusted Leticia from the start. I loved the photos and videos that she forwarded to me. It gave me peace of mind to know that he was well cared for. I hope that Leticia will be available the next time I need to be away from home for an extended period of time.”
“Ellie was absolutely amazing! She took marvelous care of our cats and provided detailed notes as to how the cats were doing during each visit. The pictures she provided were adorable. We would gladly re-book her and recommend her for pet sitting.”
“Marley was absolutely fantastic with our 5-month-old puppy, Goose! He’s definitely a handful, but everything went incredibly smoothly. Her quick and consistent communication before, during, and after her visit gave me complete confidence that he was in great hands. I also loved the pictures she shared and appreciated the updates throughout her time with him. I would happily have Marley watch Goose again and highly recommend her!”
“Had a great, worry-free trip knowing the cats were in such wonderful care with Andrew! He is extremely communicative, prompt, and followed all directions to a "t". Definitely looking forward to using his services again!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Oakwood
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 6,283 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 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 Oakwood. On Rover:
- 90% 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.
