“We are so thankful for Stephanie! Our very shy cat warmed right up to her. This was our first experience with Rover and Stephanie definitely impressed us. She made us feel so comfortable with her consistent care and pictures of our cat while we were gone!”
“Brandi, per usual, did a great job with my English bulldogs while I was away! She is always so reliable and had the responsibility of giving one of my dogs meds and eye drops following a surgery - she did a wonderful job and I know I can trust her with any medical needs of my boys that need attention if it coincides with a trip!”
“Tonya did an awesome job taking care of our 2 pups. She was very conscientious and followed all instructions. She was attentive (especially with one pup that had special, medical needs), took pictures and sent detailed reports. We will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve gained experience the last few years in taking care of our German Shepherd, Luna and sweet kitty, Cookie! I always dog sit for friends when they’re out of town and I’ve learned how to give pills to dogs. One of my friend’s dogs has allergy problems and has to take pills for it, so she had to teach me how to do that. I love playing fetch and taking dogs on walks! I also wouldn’t mind giving your dog a bath (or taking him/her to the pet store to bathe them there!). Feel free to message me with any questions you might have! I am available every day after 4:00 and every weekend as needed. I have a flexible schedule and have a good amount of free time. I will make sure your animal or animals get the care they need and make sure they are well taken care of no matter what!
About: As a lifelong dog owner, I've spent years caring for dogs and understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. I've dog-sat for family, friends, and neighbors and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I'm comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, crate-trained dogs, and providing lots of attention and affection. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away, while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind. I work full-time during the week but have flexibility in my schedule to provide reliable pet care. I am available for walks and drop-in visits most afternoons and evenings, and I am available during my lunch breaks for select visits depending on location. I am also free most weekends and can provide plenty of attention, exercise, and care for your pets. I am committed to being dependable, communicative, and accommodating whenever possible Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand the importance of following each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions. I always keep dogs securely leashed during walks, pay close attention to their behavior, and provide regular updates to owners. Whether caring for your pet in your home or during walks and drop-in visits, I will treat them with the same care, patience, and attention I would give my own pets.
“This was the second time Graham has taken care of our pups and he did an excellent job again. We are very happy that we have found him through Rover and will definitely use him again in the future.”
“Emma watched Ava for two weeks while we were out of the country. I am so happy we had her as our sitter!! She was extremely reliable and timely and I could tell truly has a passion for animals. She is so sweet and took great care of our girl - and I would rebook her again in a heartbeat!”
“Delaney was awesome and easy to work with. She met me and my 2 dogs beforehand for a quick introduction and then was timely in checking in on them throughout the week. Good care and great communication. Will book again!”
“Ashley did a great job of taking care of our cats.She was very responsive and thorough in providing updates to us. Both of my cats warmed up to her even though they are usually shy around strangers. I would book Ashley again!”
“Desiree was a great sitter for our two cats. She checked on them daily while we were away and shared cute pictures. We know they were well cared for over our long trip. Even better as cat owners, we came home to a very clean cat area which isn’t easy to maintain given how quickly litter can track. We would absolutely request Desiree again and 10/10 recommend for anyone else looking for a sitter.”
“My sweet old potato is very particular about who is around him and he LOVED Jonathan! Absolutely wonderful experience. We will definitely be booking again. He went above and beyond and sent me pictures of every visit to make sure everyone was happy and thriving while we were away.”
About: I just haven’t met them yet! Your furry bestie is going to have the time of their lives when I take care of them. I am very reliable and responsible. I have experience with all types and personalities and I can’t wait to meet your hairy besties! I have almost all weekdays between 9-2 to take care of your pets! I am also available for weekends and night, just reach out and I will make it work. I live in a pet friendly apartment with a lovely dog park, and walking trails. Your pet will feel right at home enjoying the trails and trees.
“Zackary was a fantastic dog sitter. Super responsive, understood all my requests and my dog's needs. He went above and beyond, staying longer than he needed to, making sure she was having the best time possible, and sending great updates with detailed feedback for each visit. Highly recommend!”
“I am a returning client for Colby - and I will continue to be! She sends updates and photos, makes sure the dogs get plenty of outside play time, and is very respectful of our home. She always follows instructions and leaves everything as she found it! Thank you so much:)”
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my hands-on experience with pets, which allows me to offer a compassionate and responsible approach to pet care. I have experience with training puppies, using positive reinforcement techniques to teach basic commands and house training. I also have a strong understanding of pet behavior, which helps me manage different types of animals, including those with special needs or behavioral challenges. In addition to this, I’ve cared for pets of various ages and sizes, from puppies to senior dogs, ensuring their comfort, safety, and well-being while their owners are away. I’m diligent about following any specific care instructions, whether it’s administering medications, sticking to a feeding schedule, or providing regular exercise and mental stimulation. I have two dachshunds of my own, and was raised with many Labradors! I absolutely love animals and would love to help take care of your fur babies. I currently work from home, so I have lots of availability and flexibility! I am extremely active and love to go on long walks with my dachshunds, we love to go to the park and beach! have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable, attentive care throughout the day. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, making sure pets receive regular potty breaks, exercise, meals, and plenty of attention. I enjoy staying active, so daily walks and playtime easily fit into my routine. Whether your pet needs a quick drop-in, extended care, or overnight attention, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special needs before every booking. In your home, I'll respect your space while keeping your pet's routine as consistent as possible. In my home, pets will have a clean, safe, and comfortable environment with constant supervision, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of affection. I always use secure leashes and harnesses on walks, keep fresh water available, avoid unsafe situations, and provide regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 1,181 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.

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.
