“Sam was a real pro! She made our vacation worry free. Sam is very responsive and made sure our kitties had everything they needed. She quickly bonded with them and learned their very different personalities. I would definitely book again and recommend her highly.”
“Blair was exceptional with my diabetic cat Rebel while I was recently out of the country. She cared for him like he was her own, making sure all of his needs were met and that he felt lots of love. Blair is thorough, thoughtful, and very trustworthy and I’m so grateful she’s been able to help with my family’s various pets and their needs!”
About: I have owned and fostered many dogs throughout my life. I have been pet sitting on my own for about 5 years, but with my family for even longer. I have a light class schedule making it easy to schedule drop ins! My dog services are currently off but I enjoy spending time with cats and caring for them. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, making your dog happy! Getting out of the yard is their version of our getting out of the house. Dogs like a change of scenery too!
“Highly recommend booking with Michelle! She watched my two cats while I was away for a week and came over twice a day to feed and play with them. I looked forward to her detailed updates and adorable pictures she sent after each visit and the best part was coming home to two very happy kitties! On top of that, Michelle is so trustworthy and extremely reliable, which gave me much relief knowing they were in great hands while I was gone. Thank you so much Michelle, you're the best!”

We highly recommend Jenna!!”
“Karen’s did a wonderful job watching my two kids- I mean my two cats ?! My cats loved her after the very first day and she made sure they ate and played, and was communicating with me throughout the weekend. My cats are shelter cats with abuse history, so I was very pleased with how quickly they warmed up to her. I would absolutely recommend her to a friend.”
“Emily watched my cat for 2 weeks. She dropped in daily and sent pictures and updates. She was great and I would definitely book her again!”
“Brian really came through for us at the last minute! Our usual house sitter had an emergency and had to leave two days before the end of our trip, and Brian jumped in to help even though he had never cat sit for us before. He was attentive to detail and kept us updated with pictures. Thanks again Brian you really saved our vacation!”
“Jayda did a wonderful job watching our cat while we were out for the holidays! She was very communicative the entire time, sending Rover cards with lots of pictures each drop-in visit. I highly recommend her to watch your pets!”
About: While I may not have much professional experience I have owned a variety of pets my entire life from dogs and cats to bunnies and squirrels! I even interned at a veterinary office. I currently work a full-time job but I am looking to fill my time with pet care during the evenings after 4 and all day during the weekends. I am aware of dogs and cats body language and by understand them, I can better help support their needs. I can redirect when necessary and calm energetic behavior.
“Erika was wonderful with my two kitties! They were going through a finicky stage so I had to transition them to a raw diet which was a bit detailed. Erika followed everything to the letter! I love that she sent me daily photos. It was very much appreciated! Thank you Erika for giving the love and care ❤️”
About: I have a 7 year old dog myself. I have always taken care of her, played with her, and even trained her as a puppy. She is puppy pad trained and knows basic commands such as sit, lay down, come, and drop it. I have also helped close friends take care of their dogs, walking and feeding, countless times. I work part-time so there are always a few days out of the week where I am available. I am usually always available at least 3 times a week. I have one pup who is loved immensely. I care for all animals as if they are my children. I love animals and caring for them so they will always be loved and cared for while in my care.

Blair is professional, caring and highly responsible. She is dependable and treated my cat with love and care. I highly recommend Blair to care for your furry family member(s). My cat needed special food and medication - she took care of her special needs in a manner that gave me peace of mind.

Elizabeth consistently exceeded expectations! She took the time to keep my boys happy, took them onto my balcony every day, and was so thorough that my separation anxiety was gone despite being in another country. An added bonus is all the pictures she takes-I definitely have saved some of the super silly ones and they make me happy!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Riderwood on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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.

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.
