“Andrew was great! This way my first time using Rover and I was so nervous about leaving my cat. He made me feel comfortable leaving her in his hands and she loved him (she typically hides when she isn’t sure of someone).”
“John did a fantastic job! He was prompt, friendly, and my dog warmed up to them right away. I received a nice update afterward, and it's clear he really care about pets. Looking forward to more walks with together.”
“This was my first time hiring a sitter, and Anna came through with flying colors! She came right on time, took extra care with my diabetic kitty, and kept me up to date. I'm so grateful!”
“Lingshan was fantastic! She checked in on my cat over the holidays, and she was so attentive and thoughtful in her care of our cat and home. We will highly recommend her!”
“I want to share my deep appreciation for Ashley taking very good care of my two cats while I was away for 17 days. She was so communicative and always kept me up to date. She has a lot of knowledge about animals and was very helpful when one of the cats was having trouble with anxiety and diarrhea while I was away. She also cleaned up several messes, which I hugely appreciated. I would trust Ashley to take care of my cats any time and definitely would like Ashley to be my regular cat sitter. I can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you!”
“Heather took wonderful care of my cats! Instructions were followed to the letter, house was neat and tidy and most importantly my cats were very content. Heather provided excellent updates and communication throughout. Would absolutely hire her again! Thank you!”
“Jenna is a superstar! She has been caring for our dog who absolutely adores her. Jenna is loving and sweet, she plays with our dog, and she sends us terrific pictures. By the way, I think she can start a pet photography business, because each photo is amazing. I completely trust Jenna with our fur baby, and we have 100% peace of mind that she is dropping in and giving dog love, fresh air, a bio break, and exercise. We feel so fortunate to work with Jenna!”
“Xin took excellent care of our two cats, who warmed up to her immediately! We loved the pictures she took during her visits. Knowing they were in great care made it easier to enjoy our time away from them. Xin is highly recommended!”
“Brianne has been amazing with my dog Diego! She comes weekly for his walks, and he took to her instantly. He recognizes her right away and gets so excited for their 30-minute outings. The walks have really helped his health and getting him back in shape. We’re so happy to have found her — highly recommend!”
“Julianna was great with Amber and very communicative! She updated me daily and made sure to give her lots of treats and playtime. This was my first time using Rover, and I'm so glad we worked with her!”
“Gracie was great! She was available for a last minute drop-in to give my cat his morning pill. We video chatted the day before to show her the ropes and I appreciated how detail oriented she was in making sure she knew exactly what my cat needed.”
“If you're looking for someone who truly cares, Jessica is the one! She’s incredibly responsive and has such a gentle, loving touch with our elderly dog. I trust her completely and will definitely keep booking her services. She’s reliable, punctual, and always goes above and beyond. If you want peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in great hands, you won’t regret choosing Jessica. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our sweet pup!”
About: I offer more than basic pet sitting—I bring experience, intuition, and a calm, knowledgeable approach to every visit. From everyday care to more complex medical needs, including medication administration, I’m confident handling a wide range of situations while keeping your pet comfortable and stress-free. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, with a preference for early mornings, late afternoons, and evenings. These times are ideal for walks, feedings, and quality time, especially for pets who thrive on consistent routines or need care outside of standard work hours. I’m happy to work with your schedule to ensure your pet receives dependable, timely care when they need it most. My apartment is located in a safe, pet-friendly community that’s ideal for in-home sitting. The environment is calm, clean, and welcoming, with plenty of space for pets to relax comfortably. Being in a dog-friendly area also means easy access to safe walking paths and a neighborhood where pets are part of everyday life. I make sure every pet in my care feels secure, supervised, and right at home.
“This was our first time using Rover for pet sitting and we felt like we struck gold in finding Emi! Like many pet owners, it is a big deal to trust our fur babies with someone and we felt Emi took such amazing care of them. We needed someone within the week and Emi responded to our initial request very quickly. Emi was on-time for each visit and shared pictures and sweet updates at each visit. One of our cats is quite social and we could tell from the pictures how much she enjoyed Emi’s attention! Our other cat often hides although she came out and Emi managed to get a picture of her as well! (Some of our family and friends have never seen this cat, so that’s a big accomplishment!). We definitely recommend Emi and will absolutely be booking her again!”
“I highly recommend Ivan as someone who will take great care of your pet. He has been doing a great job looking after my dog (1h drop in visits daily). There was a recent minor medical emergency and he handled it extremely well. He is thoughtful and conscientious of the pet’s individual needs. Very grateful to have him!”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Rockville
Alisyah is really great at communicating key pick up and giving detailed updates every day! I always received multiple photos of my cats and images to confirm feeding etc. My cats liked her almost immediately and were very well taken care of. I didn’t worry about them the whole trip!
Amanda did a wonderful job caring for Coco with daily drop-in visits while we were away. She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos that gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. We really appreciated knowing Coco was being cared for in the comfort of our own home. Amanda was professional and dependable, and we’d be happy to book with her again. Thank you, Amanda!
Jenny was great! She seems very conscientious, reliable, and concerned about our pets. She arrived at the pre-arranged time and confirmed by text. As requested by us, she called when there were questions about feeding, medication, etc. We will definitely request her support in the future.
This was our first time using Rover and Annika was absolutely fabulous!! She did such a amazing job going above and beyond to take care of our sweet girl Alice while we were out of town. We definitely look forward to having Annika watch after Alice whenever we go out of town.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Rockville on Rover is $23.31 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 8,111 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 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 Rockville. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
