About: I’ve had all types of pets growing up from fish, turtles, cats, three dogs, a bunny, an insane amount of guinea pigs you name it. Always loved furry friends. I recently relocated to the DMV area and had to leave my job. I wanted to do something I love and I love animals so I have plenty of free time for your babies! I like to make sure furry friends are fed, walked, and enriched with fun stimulating activities. Rest assured your furry friend and safe and cared for.
“Maura met all of my pets needs while I was out of town for a week. She was easy to communicate with and spent time with our cats each visit. I knew our cats were in good hands and appreciated her pictures with them. I will definitely be checking with Maura the next time I need a cat sitter!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and empathy I have for both cats and their owners. As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to know that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you are away. I treat every cat with the same attention and kindness I would want for my own cat, Lucre. I enjoy spending quality time with each cat, respecting their personality and making sure they feel loved, secure, and cared for. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable visits throughout the week. I understand how important consistency is for cats, so I do my best to maintain their usual feeding, cleaning, and play routines. I am committed to providing attentive care and making sure your cat feels comfortable while you are away. Your cat's safety and well-being are my top priorities. During each visit, I make sure food and water are fresh, litter boxes are clean, and the home remains secure. I pay close attention to each cat's behavior and comfort level, and I will keep you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.
“Angela was wonderful to work with! She took excellent care of Scarlett, and dealt with my, at times, temperamental cat's attitude with kindness and professionalism. She was an excellent communicator and very friendly. Would highly recommend!”

Maura met all of my pets needs while I was out of town for a week. She was easy to communicate with and spent time with our cats each visit. I knew our cats were in good hands and appreciated her pictures with them. I will definitely be checking with Maura the next time I need a cat sitter!
Nichole took care of my two cats (and my plant) while I was gone for two days. One of my cats is anxious but he warmed up to her, much to my surprise (he usually hides when guests are over). She was also very gracious and accommodating when my itinerary changed at the last minute. I highly recommend her as a cat sitter and would work with her again.
Jason did a nice job pet sitting my three cats while I was on vacation. He handled the many litter boxes every day and took great care of all three of my cats. He also went above and beyond helping with the stray cat I feed. I would recommend Jason and would be happy to have him care for my cats again!

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 .

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.
