“Lingshan did a wonderful job taking care of our 19-year-old cat, which included administering oral medication twice a day. She was punctual, responsive to queries, and took all her responsibilities seriously. I highly recommend Lingshan for taking care of your pet!”

“Judson is the best catsitter we’ve had. He’s attentive, caring, and consistent. He gets on the floor with the cats and interacts with them and plays with their toys. Our cats are a bit spastic and weird about strangers but they warmed up to Judson quickly which is always a great sign. He sent us multiple pictures every day of the cats along with a note about how they were doing. Choosing a random person on an app is nerve wracking and stressful because you’re putting all your trust in them to not only take care of your animals but also be in your home. Judson is trustworthy and respectful, but he also has a great sense of humor! I would recommend him again and again.”

About: 20+ Years of Pet Care Experience 🐾 Animals have been a special part of my life for more than 20 years, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I offer loving and reliable dog walking and pet sitting, with each visit personalized around your pet’s personality, schedule, energy level, and individual needs. I know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family member, especially when you are working, traveling, or simply need an extra helping hand. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, playtime, and companionship while in my care. I also make sure pet parents stay connected with photos and updates, so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. I am experienced with puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, different breeds and sizes, and pets with different temperaments and routines. 🐾 20+ years of experience 🐾 Loving and dependable care 🐾 Dog walks & drop-in visits 🐾 Pet sitting 🐾 Feeding & playtime 🐾 Senior & puppy care 🐾 Photo updates 🐾 Flexible, personalized service 🐾 Excellent references available upon request My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet! I like to keep pets on a routine that feels as close to home as possible. I follow each pet parent’s instructions for feeding times, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and bedtime. A typical day includes a morning potty break and walk, breakfast, plenty of attention and playtime, additional walks or outdoor breaks throughout the day, dinner, and a final evening walk before bedtime. I’m also happy to adjust the schedule for puppies, senior dogs, high-energy pets, or pets with special routines.

About: I am grateful for my opportunity on Rover! I have taken on many pets for several friends & family. Pets like turtles, dogs, even volunteered with goats! Now I want to pet sit full-time for my career. I really enjoy getting to know their individual personalities and learning their quirks, routines, and what makes them kind. I am a teacher for many subjects to students and they have an everlasting impact on my life! In the same way I will care for your pet like the family that they are to you. I am full of energy, and am looking for this to fill up more of my time! I can work any time of the day, even very early! I will usually be available at any time and love the chance to get outside. Career wise, I will always hop on the opportunity to work with new animals and be the best for them. I’m never in a hurry to get to know pets. I know being patient is the largest part of this job. At work I always put the customer first, no matter what it is, I will do what I can to make you happy! More pets, the better! I can help small or large families.

“OK, if I could leave Melody a 10 star review, I would. Our cats were so well taken care of while we were gone. Communication was excellent and we had multiple photos and updates during the day. When we returned our kitties were so well fed and happy and our home was clean and tidy. Melody even took care of our meal delivery box and brought in our heavy Chewy shipment. She’s our favorite sitter that we’ve had so far and will definitely ask her to watch Waldo and Dumpling in the future!”

About: We grew up with cats and have been cat lovers our entire lives! We currently have three cats of our own, Sophie, Milky, and Yolkie, who are truly part of our family. Over the years, we’ve gained plenty of hands-on experience caring for cats of different personalities and needs, including administering medications and looking after sick cats. We understand how important it is to pay attention to the little details, from changes in appetite and litter box habits to subtle differences in behavior. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or loves cuddles, we’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. We’re happy to help with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, medications, and anything else your kitty may need. We know how stressful it can be to leave your cats behind, so we’ll treat them just like our own and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages. Your cats’ happiness and well-being will always be our priority! Taking care of your pet is my full time job no matter the day or week. Unlike many others, I am able to make sure that your pet has my attention 24/7. We are in a 3 story townhome with plenty of space to explore! Your pet is allowed to roam anywhere they please inside and the entire house is pet-friendly. We have a small front yard but it is not fenced so we will definitely make sure they are not outside without a leash. We always make sure the leash your dog before leaving the house. I will be there 24/7 with your dog to play and tend to there needs. Plenty of walks!

“Xiaoyi was absolutely amazing with my dog Bella. At first, I was skeptical about this service as I am very picky about who I like to work with Bella. That being said I would absolutely book Xiaoyi without any hesitation or reservation. If you like someone who is very attentive communicative and very caring, please look no further. While I was away on my trip, she kept me informed with pictures and text messages on my dogs experience. I look forward to working with her in the future! 10 out of 10 experience!!!”

About: I’m especially a cat person and genuinely enjoy spending time with cats of all personalities—from playful kittens to shy seniors. I know that earning a cat’s trust takes patience, and I’m happy to let them interact at their own pace. I’ve been surrounded by both dogs and cats my entire life and have been caring for pets since I was a child. I grew up with multiple dogs and cats, including a Golden Retriever, a Chihuahua, and several cats, so I’m comfortable with pets of different sizes, breeds, and personalities. I’ve also pet sat for friends and family many times, providing feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and lots of love. I understand that every pet is unique, and I always do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. Whether your pet needs a quick visit, playtime, feeding, or extra attention while you’re away, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule whenever possible. I know every pet has their own routine and personality, so I always take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your home clean and secure, and make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, affection, and care. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your furry family member, and I’ll treat your pets as if they were my own! I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I have owned 5 small dogs in the past 20yrs and have taken cared of different kinds of dogs as well. I have experience with puppies and seniors, big and small dogs, administering medication. I currently have 3 little dogs - an intact Frenchie and a pair of Chihuahua-JRT siblings that are spayed and neutered. I can read most dogs’ body language, and have learned from first hand experience that even the ‘friendliest’ dogs can have their triggered moments. So I always make a conscious effort to feed each dog separately and look out for triggering behaviors like resource-guarding. I work from home so your pup will rarely be left alone. I have a single family home with a big front and back yard that are fenced so they can run around. I’m flexible with pick up and drop offs and cancellations. I understand things happen, and plans change. I am happy to work with you on your requests. Rest assured that I will treat your pups like I would want mine to be treated when I’m away! I let my dogs out every 2hrs or whenever they want to go play since we have a fenced front and back yard. So your dogs will too! I work from home so I can keep your dog company all day. Our dogs usually get an afternoon treat in between meals, and again before bed.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have been a trusted sitter to friends and family for many years! I’m patient with shy pets and playful with more outgoing personalities! I work a full time 9-5 schedule but can do drop-ins and walks before and after work! Also available in specific weekends with prior notice! I currently have my own pets so I can only visit animals in their homes but I like to tailor my approach to match the pet’s personality and the owners specific needs!

Bianca was excellent with my shy older cat. She made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care and, more importantly, made him feel comfortable (which is not easy)! I also really appreciated that around halfway through my trip she asked if there was anything she could do better or differently, which no other sitter has done before. Highly recommend and will definitely invite her to help with Knuckles again in the future!

Barbara took such good care of my cats while I was away that I needed to switch up my own routines! I was updated every visit with how everyone was doing, and each of my 3 cats got such focused attention on every visit that their personalities (and bellies!) were on full display. I trust Barbara with my cats, and I can't possibly recommend her high enough for how well she worked with them.

Nuha made my trip so much more enjoyable by providing really great details about what she and my cat got up to. I also loved how many photos she sent. My friends who have checked in on my cat previously sometimes didn't send a single photo the whole time I was away! Using Rover and Nuha specifically was so worth it. Nuha also was very patient with me when my apartment complex door/security system had glitches. I'd 100% recommend her and hope to book with her again in the future!

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Rockville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Rockville is $23 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $39 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 2,505 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Rockville. On Rover:

  • 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 88% 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 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.
