“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 have been taking care of my dog, Jack, for the past 6.5 years! Jack has epilepsy so I have experience taking care of medically complex dogs. I’m currently working from home so I will be able to give your dog the love and attention they deserve! In the past, we had a dog walker who loved on our dog just as much as us and it gave us so much peace of mind! I have a large yard in a quiet neighborhood with lots of walking trails. I am willing to watch your pup with a similar routine they keep at home to keep them relaxed and happy!
“Amber was great and would I’d gladly recommend her to anyone who is in need. She took the time to come and meet my dog and write down all of the details. She didn’t just drop in and let my boy out for a bathroom break, she also took him on walks around the neighborhood, played fetch, and cleaned up after his excited pees - what more can you ask for? If you want peace of mind and good communication, Amber is just that.”

About: Charleston local with a passion for animals and extensive experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes.

About: Hi! My name is Virginia and I’m 25 years old. I have two dogs of my own (a coton de tulear who is my literal CHILD😂, and an English mastiff!), before them I had another English mastiff for 12 years, so I am very comfortable with big dogs! They’re gentle giants🥰 I just quit my job so I am completely free to watch your dogs! I am very flexible and can be there whenever you need me 😊 Whenever I’m in between jobs or working part time, I hop on Rover to dogsit. It is such a rewarding and fun side hustle! I love dogs and treat your dogs just like I would my own❤️ I love getting to spend time with your pets and making them feel loved, happy and calm while you’re away! 😊
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. Most of my close friends growing up had dogs, so I spent years helping walk, feed, and care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m very comfortable with big dogs, energetic puppies, and reactive dogs who need a calm, confident presence. I also have extensive experience with cats. I had my own cat for 10 years and cared for him through every life stage, including his senior years. I’ve also cat-sat for friends, including elderly cats who needed extra patience and attention. What sets me apart is my ability to read animal body language and adapt to their personality. Some pets need structure and exercise, others need gentleness and reassurance. I aim to create a calm, safe environment where your pet feels secure and understood. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and caring for senior pets. I take routines seriously and will always follow your instructions closely so your pet’s day feels consistent and familiar. I’m currently only taking one university course, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and longer stays, and I’m happy to coordinate around your pet’s usual routine. Wherever I’m caring for your pet, I prioritize safety and routine. I carefully follow your instructions, house rules, feeding schedules, and any specific care requirements. I’ll always ask questions if something is unclear because consistency is important for animals. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I treat that responsibility seriously.
“Tillman and Cash had a great time with Kaylie this weekend, while I was in Myrtle Beach. She kept them on schedule, and that meant no mess in the house.She and Jon played with them and left a fun goodie bag of toys and treats for them after her last visit. I highly recommend Kaylie for her responsiveness, care and TLC for my cat and dog.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,192 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:

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.
