Catherine is great! I knew from our meet and greet that she is a genuine animal lover! She immediately got down onto the floor to calmly and gently introduce herself to my cat. Dani went right up to her with confidence. Catherine took such good care of my Dani while I was on vacation. She made sure that she had plenty of food and water each day and tended to the litter box. Catherine took time to pet, brush, and play with Dani too. She also took a lot of great photos. I could see from the photos that Dani was thoroughly enjoying Catherine’s company and attention. I will definitely use Catherine in the future and confidently recommend her pet sitting services to others.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and attention, I provide loving, reliable care tailored to each animal’s needs. I understand how important routines, comfort, and safety are, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m a student at Towson University! All of my classes take place in morning/early afternoon so I am free in afternoons/ evenings. The weekends I am completely free as well! I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any medication instructions. I make sure the space is clean, secure, and free of hazards, and I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I also maintain open communication with owners by providing regular updates and photos, so they feel confident and reassured while they’re away. Most importantly, I give each pet patience, attention, and affection to ensure they feel comfortable and cared for.

Rachel watched my dog Asher for 12 days while I was out of the country. She is amazing!! Since Asher is a bit nervous and apprehensive, it's easier for him to stay at home. She dropped in to take care of him a few times a day. She was always on time, followed directions, and even sent me pictures and updates. I highly recommend her if you are in need of these services. She has a ton of experience and knowledge. Thanks Rachel!!

About: Hi, I’m Cynthia! I am experienced pet parent and have had my dog, a super friendly couch potato Bassett Lab mix named Tucker, for over a decade now. I grew up with cats and frequently pet sit for friends and neighbors by doing drop in visits and walks. I have experience with both small and large dogs, and love to get my steps in with walks! We take our dog out for a 30 minute walk every morning, as well as shorter walks and play throughout the day as my husband and I both have flexible hours and work from home. The care and safety of your pet is of the utmost importance to me and I’d treat all of them as if they were my own. Thanks for considering me for your furry family member, and I look forward to meeting them! I’m recently laid off from my long time job as a project manager and have unlimited time to make your pet’s life the best it can be :) I have trained my dog from puppy school through to puppy college aka therapy dog school and am well attuned to the needs of a dog in training. I’m comfortable following any guidelines you set out, and strive to leave any place better than I found it.

This was our first time using the Rover app. We were so happy to have Nicole as our sitter. She went above & beyond in caring for our cat while we were away, including brushing, cleaning up the area around the feeding dishes, removing hair balls, etc. Nicole sent a detailed report each day and made sure she got pics even on those days our cat was hiding. Nicole developed a rapport with Ollie very quickly and it helped us enjoy our time away knowing our cat was in great hands.

About: As a retired professional, I bring reliability, patience, and a calm presence to every walk. I’ve been a dog owner of two large breeds and one small breed. I have hands-on experience with doodle breeds and their unique personalities. I understand the importance of safety and health. I’ve cared for dogs with medical needs, so I’m comfortable with monitoring, medications, and giving extra attention when needed. Whether your dog loves a brisk walk, a gentle stroll, or some extra cuddles along the way, I treat every pup like family because that’s what they are. As a recently retired police officer, I currently work part-time so my hours are flexible and will have plenty of time for your fur babies. I will treat your home as if it were my own. I will safely walk your dog on leash, and can easily crate your dog, if need be.

I currently work full time, but can easily do evenings or early mornings. i don’t work weekends, only saturday mornings until 12. Each day is different at work, some days ending at 1 some days 7pm. I am happy to work around timing to be able to care for your pup! I thoroughly enjoy a long walk with a companion, or keeping them company in their home. I have a lot of experience around large dogs so walking a bigger breed is no issue.

About: Hi! I’m a dedicated and reliable pet lover with experience caring for animals of all ages and personalities. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I currently have two dogs, so caring for animals is a part of my everyday life. Over the years, I’ve cared for many pets through drop-in visits, dog walks, senior pet care and overnights. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, playtime, medication reminders, or just some extra love and attention while you’re away, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. One of my favorite parts of pet care is seeing the excitement on a dog’s face when I walk through the door. Building trust and creating a positive experience for every pet is something I truly enjoy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to provide dependable, compassionate care while giving you peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members soon! 🤍 I currently am working part time at my job, but I old love to spend my mornings/afternoons taking care of your pets! My availability is flexible and can also accept weekend bookings I currently have a small fenced yard where my dogs are able to go out during the day and soak up the sun! They love being outdoors so we can play. I am willing to accommodate any type of service your pets need!

We were in a bind when our regular cat sitter had to cancel last minute due to illness, and Kerri stepped in immediately. She was incredibly responsive, reliable, and took full responsibility from the start, which gave us such peace of mind. Her communication was excellent throughout, and she handled everything seamlessly on short notice. Most impressively, our two very timid cats actually came out to greet her — something that almost never happens! We’re so grateful to have found Kerri and wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again. Highly recommend!

Mary was awesome. She accommodated a pretty short notice request for our first time for a drop-in. And while our dogs can be anxious around new people, she had no concerns and took them out and played with them and they had a blast. We will definitely be using her services again.

About: Hi! My name is Audrey. I have experience caring for pets through personal and informal care, including feeding, walking, and providing companionship for dogs and cats. I’m very comfortable with drop-in visits and understand how important it is to maintain a pet’s routine while their owner is away. I can administer medication if necessary. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always follow care instructions closely. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for, and I provide clear updates and photos after each visit. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious pets and aim to create a calm, reassuring presence. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Caring for pets fits easily into my weekly routine, and I genuinely enjoy making time for drop-in visits and walks. I keep a flexible schedule so I can be available when pets need care, and I always do my best to be consistent, punctual, and attentive. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free during drop-in visits. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, litter box care, and medications if needed. I always pay attention to safety, making sure doors are closed and pets are secure before leaving. I also spend time giving pets affection and calm companionship so they feel cared for while their owner is away. I send updates and photos after each visit for peace of mind 💛

Lisa stepped up to a much needed request to provide a few check ins for our 1 year old Golden Retriever. She took time to meet with us before to see her and discuss she’d habits and needs. She was on time and provided pics and feedback with how it was going. Overall it looked like Bella had fun and her needs were met. I would recommend Lisa to anyone in the area needing someone to check in on their dog.

I completely trust Catherine to take the best care of Luna. Catherine spends time with her, brushes her, and tries to get her to play. (But Luna's a lump and is too lazy to play. 😁) I'll be hiring Catherine again when I go away. She's the best!

I highly recommend Madison! She took excellent care of my two cats while I was away and gave me complete peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my pets as if they were her own. My cats were happy, well cared for, and relaxed when I returned home. I would absolutely book with her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Squankum

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 1,906 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Squankum. 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 Squankum. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

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.
