About: As a person whose significant other is terribly allergic to dogs it breaks my heart that I can't have one for my own. But that makes me the perfect "Doggy Auntie". The amount of friends and family that ask me to take care of their dogs while they are away is more than I can count of both hands. I love going for walks and hikes and having a dog with me is the best way to do it. I have a very set schedule but my job is very dog friendly so bringing them into the office with me is very easy, plus they get more snuggles from my coworkers. I understand that your pet is your family and they deserve to be treated as such. I want you to be able to enjoy vacation or your work day without having to worry about your family back home. I know every house hold is different so I'd rather have too much information than not enough information in regards to how you would like your pet's routine maintained.
“Karinna did an excellent job with my cats. Even my tortie started to warm up to her. She was prompt with the feeding times and sent great pictures. It was comforting to know I didn’t have to worry about them ❤️ Thank you!”
“Always a pleasure to return back from a trip when Melissa has been there. We were so tired coming back this time, and of course- as we enter our house- dog tv was playing peacefully, any accident areas cleaned up, and dog happily chewing bone on her bed.”
“Renata was an unbelievable petsitter for our dog and cat! She got to know them so quickly, took outstanding care of them (I could see how happy they were with her in the pics and video she sent) and went above and beyond in every way possible, putting us at complete ease while we were away. I cannot recommend Renata highly enough, we feel so incredibly fortunate to have found her! We hope we never have to have anyone else care for our pets after such a great experience with Renata, she is simply THE BEST!!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU, RENATA!!!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for many years through both pet ownership and pet sitting. I currently have a Springer Spaniel and a Labrador Retriever, so I’m comfortable with active, high-energy dogs and understand the importance of exercise, consistency, and routine. I’ve also cared for family members’ cats and have experience providing overnight care for dogs while owners are away. As a teacher, I’m dependable, organized, and attentive to details, and I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I’m a teacher and currently work summer school from 9:00 AM–1:00 PM on weekdays, which gives me plenty of availability in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends if messaged. During the school year, I maintain a consistent schedule and am available before and after work for drop-in visits, walks, and pet care. As a pet owner myself, caring for animals is already part of my daily routine, and I enjoy making sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and currently have a Springer Spaniel and a Labrador Retriever of my own. I always follow the routines and instructions provided by owners, including feeding schedules, medications, walks, and crate training if needed. Whether caring for pets in your home or mine, I provide plenty of attention, exercise, supervision, and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have been taking care of dogs almost my whole life, and finally decided to branch out and get more clients on my roster. I am a nineteen year old college student studying to become a music teacher, and I have two small dogs of my own. I have experience with large dogs, medium dogs, tiny dogs- you name it! I’ve worked with puppies to seniors. I can’t wait to help take care of your furry friends! I’m currently attending community college in Enfield and spend the recently moved out of my mom’s house to share an apartment with my dad. When I’m not in class, I am taking care of my dogs by doing things like feeding them, brushing their teeth, brushing my long haired dog, and any other needs they might require. I have also adopted a bernedoodle puppy from a shelter event. I have experience in dog training which includes basic commands, resource guarding, and crating. My female cocker spaniel was fully trained by me, and my male dog knows a few tricks.
“Sarah is not only an amazing pet sitter but also an amazing person, super kind and genuine! We are so lucky to have found someone who loves our pet as much as we do! Sarah made sure onyx took the medication which is sometimes a task even we cannot accomplish. Onyx definitely enjoyed his time with Sarah and so did we!”
“You will not find a better person to care for your pet. Kristen is caring, attentive, and exactly the type of person I needed to care for my high energy pup while I'm at work. She cares and wants to do what is the best for you and your pet. So happy to have met her, you will not be disappointed!”
About: I've taken care of every kind of animal. Dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters. I've also administered medication of many kinds and I am certified in Domestic cat + dog first Aid and CPR. All animals deserve love and care no matter how big or small! I am currently working part-time during the weekdays and on weekends in the late evening. My weekend available will change to be fully available after October. Either way, your pets are my first priority! Not all of my animals get along- I have an intricate schedule of alternating my cats and dog to make sure there are no fights or stressing factors. But there is always playtime for all the animals!
“What a pleasure it was meeting Katie and working with her. On a last minute booking she was easy to work with and took care of our furbaby as if Nugget was her own. I Highly suggest you book her! You won't regret it!”
“Lesa was great with my fur baby! We had a meet & greet and my dog took to her right away. This was our 1st time leaving our dog alone overnight & we were nervous. Lesa was great communicating with us & keeping us up to date with how she was doing & sending us pics. We will definitely have her look after our fur baby again!”
“Sarah is so good with our cat! Treats her like a queen. And she is as dependable as can be. Can’t imagine a better person to recommend for anyone needing her services.”
About: My entire life I have owned at least 3 pets. From foster cats, to my own cats, dogs, neighbors dogs, etc. I am a pet person through and through. I have a range of ages of animals I’ve taken care of - from dogs in elderly stages to 2 week old kittens. I am currently working from home Mon,Wed, Thursday, Fri. I’m constantly taking quick walks around the block during the day to keep my energy up and get outside. We have already cat sat in our apartment and everything went smoothly. We ensure doors are closed and locked at all times so there is a 0% chance of escaping. I live in between two parks as well which are always full of dogs to play in.
About: I have cared for my own dog and family members dogs for several years. I also am an approved foster for Caribbean Canine Connection. I have experience with all ages from puppies to senior dogs with special medical requirements. My own dog, Luke, is very dog friendly as we always have fosters in & out of the home. I work from home M-F so there is almost always somebody home with your pet. My schedule is flexible to accommodate frequent potty breaks. On weekends, my husband and I like to take whatever dogs are in our home on a short, or long hike depending on the tolerance of the animal. Pets are family! I will accomodate any reasonable request. Unless you ask otherwise, all pets will be allowed on furniture. We have baby gates up to separate the dogs in the home if needed..if your dog is crate trained, we have a crate set up in the family room. If your dog is not used to the crate (but is housebroken) they will be allowed to free roam the kitchen/living room at night. All dogs will be fed separately!
“Elizabeth did an outstanding job with our two dogs! She always sent pics and took great care make sure they had what they needed. Highly recommended and will work with her again.”

Lauren did a wonderful job taking care of our cat! She kept us updated with frequent photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our cat was not only well-fed but also given lots of love, attention, and care. We truly appreciate everything Lauren did and are so grateful for the excellent care she provided. We would absolutely book with her again. Thank you, Lauren!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Rockville on Rover is $17.76 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.

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.
