About: As a teacher, I am organized, dependable, and attentive to details. I have experience caring for cats and walking dogs, and I understand how important it is for pet owners to know their pets are safe and well cared for while they're away. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions, providing updates, and maintaining a pet's normal routine. As a teacher, I am used to maintaining a consistent schedule and following routines. During the summer, I have increased flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. During the school year, I am available before and after work, evenings, weekends, and for overnight house-sitting arrangements. I work to maintain a pet's normal routine and provide dependable care while their owners are away. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is important. I carefully follow care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if applicable), and household routines. I provide updates and photos when requested and strive to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their usual routine. I treat every home with respect and prioritize the safety and well-being of each pet in my care.
“Xianting was very patient and professional and monitor the conditions of my cat closely. It was our first time using rover and we immediately love Xianting and would love to come back to her again. Highly recommended!”
About: I’m the go-to dog sitter for my friends and family. I’ve watched pitbulls, rotties, small dogs, you name it. I had rescue pit mix for 3 years. She was older and I was glad to spend the time I could with her. I learned a lot about separation anxiety, leash reactivity and the impact of positive reinforcement. I work from home and am flexible. Just message me and I’ll respond asap to confirm or reschedule. I don’t have a set time I can provide at this time. I have a cat at home. She’s a bit fearful of larger and high energy dogs. I won’t do dog sitting in my home until I’ve accessed the dog with previos visits. I can drop by and stay for a few hours if you prefer or just drop by for the food/ bio break. Dog walks will always be 1-1. Unless they’re siblings. On leash with plenty of treats and water.
About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, fish, bearded dragons, sugar bears, geckos, and lizards. I love all animals and will always give them the utmost care and love. I have a 3 year old German shepherd and Labrador mix named Dodge. I am available most mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnights durung the week. I look forward to taking care of your pets and will enjoy every minute of it as I aim to continue doing something I love. Taking care of your pets will fit in perfectly with taking care of my dog. We will go on walks, cuddle, and play fetch all day long. I make sure to meet dogs before booking service to make sure your dog knows me. I have never had a problem with getting along with dogs, but my dog has sometimes not been cordial to new friends. I will respect your safety and privacy and only stay in areas you allow me to stay in your home.
“Stefany was great with our pets. They all came out to visit her, which doesn't happen to all care providers. She was friendly and professional to us and very loving to the kitties.”
“Astrid is wonderful! She made us feel very comfortable to leave our cats with her. She would always go above and beyond and send us so many pictures. We will be booking with her again!”
“Highly recommend Connie as an outstanding sitter. She cared for my senior, special needs dog with professionalism and caring. I received a lot of great pictures of her visits and she was was very responsive. Will use Connie again. Five stars!”
About: I've loved animals my whole life, back to the days of summer camp at the National Zoo. I've walked many different dogs through watching friends' and neighbors' pets and volunteering at local animal shelters. I'm also a cat lover who has had cats in the house my whole life, and I even have some experience with pet fish! Animals of all sizes and personalities will be well-loved when spending time with me. :) Added bonus: I'm an excellent pet photographer, so I promise I'll get your furry friend's best side! I'm on summer break from school starting June 19, 2026, so I'll be available most days (including daytime, evenings, and weekends) unless I'm traveling! Before then, I'm available evenings and weekends. My priority is making sure your pet is safe and feels safe with me. I will always ensure your animal has food and water, bathroom access, and protection from other animals. I'm happy to accommodate any pet-specific concerns, too -- I have lots of experience with reactive dogs and will discuss your pet's needs before I spend time with them. I'm committed to spending as much time as needed making sure an animal feels comfortable with me.
“My dog Rover is skittish and afraid to be pet on his head. Israel found a way to not only get him out for his walk but Rover also sat on his lap!! I am so grateful for someone who wanted to work to gain Rover's trust. I am grateful.”
About: My husband and I have been taking care of dogs and cats since we were in high school. Our family and friends relied on us to sit their babies while they are out of town. No dogs larger than 80 lbs. We work from home, so we can ensure your pets have constant company. We are attentive to their needs and can address them promptly whenever necessary. A community park is only 5 minute walk away and our home provides plenty of space for your babies to explore. We currently do not have any pet and children at home. We’d love to learn about your pet’s routine at home so we can keep things as consistent as possible and help them feel comfortable in a new environment.
“Peggy is an excelente and dog lover person. She was very caring with Hero and very diligent to look for Hero’s needs. I will use Peggy services again and again, I recommend her as the best dog caring person”
About: I’m a recent college graduate with 10 years of pet care experience and a genuine love for animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, rabbits, and reptiles. I have the most experience caring for large breed dogs such as Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, and Labradoodle mixes, and I’m confident handling strong, high-energy pets. I also enjoy caring for small dogs and cats and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. My schedule is flexible, I’m able to now dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I enjoy keeping animals active, engaged, and comfortable throughout the day with walks, playtime, attention, and companionship. As a recent college graduate, I’m able to provide dependable care and make sure your pet gets the attention and exercise they need while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I prefer creating a calm, loving environment where pets can feel relaxed and part of the family. I don’t like keeping animals caged unless it’s necessary or part of their normal routine, and I always respect each pet’s individual needs and personality. I make time for exercise, play, and affection so pets can burn energy, stay happy, and feel secure while in my care.
“We’ve had Olivia do drop in visits with our two dogs twice now so far and she has been amazing! She is very responsive and has been extremely helpful with us learning rover. Our two dogs are usually not the best with new people and are reactive, but she has been absolutely wonderful with them.”

I'm very happy with the care Kristy gave my cats. She went above and beyond, and I really appreciated how communicative she was and how she provided pictures and a thorough report after each drop-in visit. I would highly recommend her to others and plan to utilize her services in the future.

As of July 2026, there are 8,176 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across South Laurel. 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.

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.
