“Gregg was fantastic. He’s knowledgeable about animal care, he’s super nice, and worked well with all of the instructions we left. We were just grateful to find someone to help us when our regular sitter was out, but Gregg turned out to be 10x better than we could’ve hoped for.”
“Ashley is a gem — she is consistent, thorough, thoughtful and always eager to go the extra mile. She not only developed immediate rapport with my mean old cat, she also takes plenty of photos and was able to water some sprouts in our garden while we were away. If you can book her, you won’t regret it!”
“Grace responded quickly to my request and was patient with me while I had a crazy day when my normal sitters were not available! She followed all the instructions perfectly after a quick phone call and I could tell my kitty was happy with how quiet he was when I got home! Truly appreciative of sitters like Grace who can make themselves available in times like this and would definitely use her again! Dusty would be happy to see you :)”
“Izcali did an amazing job checking in on my two kitties while I was away!! Every day she sent amazing photos and she made sure they were well taken care of :) she played with them every day and when we came home the cats were healthy and happy. I had such peace of mind leaving the cats in Izcali’s care and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter”
“Sharmily did her usual great job taking care of our cats while we were on vacation. She sends regular updates with lots of pictures. She is our ‘go to’ sitter and we’ll definitely book her for future trips.”
“She was super friendly and very responsive. Communication was quick and easy, and she made the whole experience smooth and comfortable. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Amy is the best pet sitter, and our cats love her as much as we do! We get such a kick out of the daily report cards Amy sends when we are traveling, and she always goes above and beyond to care for our sweet and crazy, spoiled, food obsessed felines. Thank you, Amy!”
“Iris did a great job looking after my cat over the holidays! I really appreciated how Iris left me super detailed reports and tons of cute pictures during the daily check-ins, and was a great communicator. I also appreciated the flexibility when I was scheduling our initial call. I would absolutely ask Iris to catsit again and would recommend anyone to book as well!”
“Megan was an absolutely fabulous sitter. We’ve now relied upon Megan for two trips, and each time Megan went above and beyond expectations. The check-ins were thorough, entertaining, and with great pictures. It was obvious how much care was being provided to our two cats. We look forward to working with Megan in the future!!”
“It was such a relief having such sensitive cat sitter. Daily pics of our shy precious cat provided us with confirmation that all was well. Kaylynn is the best!!!”
“Keaton was caring, conscientious, and organized. They gave excellent care to our two cats, who seemed to enjoy Keaton’s company. They also gave excellent updates.”
“Booked Lilla for cat care while I was away for the week and she went above and beyond to give my kitty the special attention he needed. She also provided detailed reports during her visits so I knew he was doing well!”
About: We grew up with dogs and love having them around. We enjoy opening up our home and taking care of some furry friends and have a ton of experience dog sitting. We foster dogs through a local rescue, so we're confident any DC dog could be comfortable in our home. We have a 4 year old lab mix who likes to host playmates, but is also respectful of dogs' space if they prefer to have a leisurely stay with us. We're able to work on any training and will crate your dog upon request, or give them access to roam depending on your preference! Most importantly, we have experience handling behavior issues like leash reactivity and separation anxiety, please mention those when booking so we can be prepared to make your dog feel the most comfortable they can when they're away from home. We understand that leash reactivity and dog aggression are different, so while we can sit for a dog that's leash reactive, we unfortunately cannot host a dog that is dog aggressive. If there are any training methods you've been working on with your dog, let us know, and we'd be happy to ensure we are reinforcing the training you've been working on with your dog. Please note: dog-boarding does not mean we will be home 100% of the time and we are happy to discuss your expectations and our boarding set up. For boarding (half days may result in an additional fee. example: saturday 8am drop off and a sunday 10pm pick up is 1.5 days). We can be flexible knowing that delays can happen when traveling!
“Lindsay is amazing! Our cat loves her, as shown by the photos and videos she sends of him rubbing against her and offering her his belly to rub. She is always on time and responsive. On this trip, we had an issue with our automatic feeder and she offered to add an extra visit each day at a reduced rate to make sure he got his second meal. We definitely hope we can continue to work with her in the future.”
“We really appreciate Zach being available and taking such good care of our three cats and our one foster cat! He navigated our house well and treated all the cats with tenderness. Thank you!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Riverdale Park
I had a wonderful experience with Nicole! She was incredibly responsive, reliable, and caring throughout the entire time she looked after my cats. It was clear that she genuinely cared about their well-being and treated them with so much compassion and patience. Knowing they were in such caring hands gave me great peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter!
Carinna was amazing! She was very reliable and communicative. She went above and beyond as a caregiver for our 20+ year old cat, including delivering treats when he couldn't be bothered to use the stairs. Her time here really made for a worry-free vacation, I would definitely recommend her!
Bryanna was wonderful with our furry crew! She took such great care of everyone and even our shyest kitties opened up to her! I would recommend her highly to anyone looking for conscientious and loving care for your pets. She was timely and communicated well with us the entire time.
Ashely was amazing! Loved all the pictures and she definitely went above and beyond helping us out! She was very responsive, friendly, and caring for our two cats and turtle. I would absolutely recommend her for anyone needing anything pet related, she’s wonderful!
Iris is an excellent cat sitter. We have a timid cat, who waited at the door for her visits. Our cat was eager to continue her routine of being fed and hanging out playing with a laser. Iris kept her cat bowls clean and the cat litter box was kept in good order. We highly recommend her for cat care and I’m sure her dog care is equally good.
Kaylynn has watched our Buddy cat many times now, and she is always wonderful! She’s incredibly reliable, attentive, and someone we completely trust to take great care of our cat while we’re away. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our cat is in good hands, and we always come home to a happy, well-cared-for kitty. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can count on time and time again. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Riverdale Park on Rover is $32.19 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 8,291 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Riverdale Park. 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 Riverdale Park. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% can help with daily exercise
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.
