“Thanks for showing care and affection towards my pets. I felt at ease knowing that my furry babies were in good hands while I was away. The daily updates and photos you sent me were a nice touch and reassured me that everything was going well. I highly recommend Ella to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”
“Mikayal did a great job taking care of our elderly cat. She was on time and kept the area very clean. We are very pleased and our cat seemed to like her. We will definitly ask her to care for our cat again. Thanks for a great job.”
“Jennifer has been helping my family with our new puppy for 2 weeks now by coming and giving him a daily potty/lunch/play break while we are at work and school. She goes above and beyond for our pup and even gives some love to our older dog while she’s here. We love getting the daily updates and pictures she sends. Jennifer is kind, responsible, responsive, and reliable.”
“I recently had the pleasure of having Allyson take care of our pets overnight, and I couldn't be more pleased with her service! She looked after our cat, Willow, and our two dogs, Elsa (a German Shepherd) and Bruno (a Yorkie), and she did a fantastic job. Allyson was attentive and caring, making sure that each of our pets received the love and attention they deserve. She fed them on schedule and took them out for bathroom breaks without any issues. I really appreciated her dedication to their well-being. She even checked in on our hermit crabs! I highly recommend Allyson for anyone needing pet care services. She is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares for animals. Thank you, Allyson, for taking such great care of Willow, Elsa, and Bruno!”
“Laila went above and beyond, checking in with every step, sending photos of the kitties and even of the food dishes. And my kitty was comfortable enough to come to her from the first visit. I’m very particular and overly protective of my babies and she put my mind at ease. She’s a lovely person too. I think I hit the jackpot finding her.”
“Tasha was absolutely the best person I could have had caring for our two kitties!!! Very sweet and loving to them while also being great at communicating with me and flexible with our needs! 10/10 recommended!”
About: As Confucius said, "Choose a job you love, and you will never work a day in your life." I began pet sitting throughout high school and from there my passion for animals grew. I am currently employed as a veterinary assistant although my ultimate goal is to attend veterinary school one day! I love being able to help families and their fur-babies. I am comfortable with administering medications and injections (such as insulin). I have cared for medically complex senior furry friends. I am currently taking a leave of absence from work and therefore have more free time available to pet sit! Pet sitting for family, friends, and pre-existing clients is currently my full time job until I return to my vet assistant role 😊 When caring for pets in their own homes, I like to keep things very neat and organized. I will typically wash bed sheets or at least remove bed sheets if spending the night. I will also bring my own groceries and supplies with me so as to not disturb the home. I do my best to spend the majority of my day in the home with the pet providing company.
“I'm so thankful for Stephanie. I've never left my cat alone for this long and it gave me peace of mind knowing someone was checking in on her and making sure she had food and water.”
“Karyna took great care of my cat Wilson. Last minute holiday plans came up and she went above and beyond to ensure Willie was comfortable. Thank you so much, I’m so appreciative.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes and have years of sitting experience. I have taken care of puppies, senior dogs, and anywhere in between. I recently graduated college and am looking for something to occupy my time during the summer. I am available most days and times of the week. I will satisfy any rules and requests to keep your fur babies comfortable and on their regular routine. I love walking and playing with pups.
“Josephine went above and beyond for us looking after our two cats while we were away during the holidays. She was always super communicative and provided updates for us on how they were doing each day. I would 100% recommend her for any pet sitting and will definitely be using her to watch after our cats again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 2,810 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rockville. 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 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 Meet & Greet .

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 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.
