I would certainly recommend her and would use her again in the future!”

About: I am currently without my own pets, but still assist with my kid's mom's pets (Two dogs, and elder beagle and a puppy who is mixed). I am currently enjoying my retirement and going back to school on Tuesday evenings. I have two daughters who are in after school sports that have games on the weekend. Other than that my schedule is open. I am more than happy to help with your pets in your home. Let me know what you need and I will make sure it gets taken care of, and that your pet gets the care and attention they need and deserve!
About: I love animals very much. I can always establish a good interactive relationship with pets and help them adapt to the new environment quickly. By observing and perceiving their needs, I can provide timely help and let them spend a relaxing and happy time. I have also taken care of many older dogs and know how to feed them medicine and care for them. I work from home so I am able to take care of the pet throughout the day, I take dog for walks in the morning and evening and take him out to play in the backyard every two to three hours. I have a fenced backyard and I have a six year old very well behaved and friendly little dachshund at home to play with your dog. Because I take care of my own dog every day and have taken care of different kinds of dogs, so I can take good care of your dog too.
“Christian was very good with my cat, who is very cautious around new people. He did lots of little thoughtful things like leave treats around the apartment for when she was less stressed. He was also very flexible when my travel plans changed without much warning. He is polite and responsive. You can't find a better sitter for a cat in Rockville or Gaithersburg!”
“My kitties adore having Stephanie care for them while we’re on vacation! She’s extremely communicative, trustworthy, and really goes the extra mile for her clients. She’s the best!!”
About: I’ve been caring for other people’s dogs and cats for years, with my experience caring for pets going all the way back to my teens. For the past two years, I’ve especially loved walking and doing drop-in visits for dogs in my neighborhood, and I’ve also cared for cats through house sitting and drop-in visits over the years. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each fur baby, learning their personality and routine, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. I’m a dog mom myself, so I know how important it is to have someone you truly trust caring for your pets. After having such wonderful experiences using Rover for my own fur babies, I decided it was time to join the sitter side and share that same kind of care with other families! 🐾 I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which makes welcoming another fur baby into my home an easy fit! I personally provide all care, so your dog will have plenty of company, attention, playtime, and love throughout the day rather than spending long stretches alone. I’m happy to follow their usual feeding, potty, walking, and bedtime routine as closely as possible. Your fur baby will be welcomed into my dog-loving home with a fully fenced-in yard and two friendly dogs who love having company! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so your dog will get plenty of attention, outdoor time, and companionship throughout the day. I walk my dogs regularly and would love to include your fur baby in our walks when appropriate. I’ll personally provide their care and follow their normal feeding, potty, sleeping, and care routines as closely as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while their humans are away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for friends and family for the past couple of years and I enjoy welcoming our fur babies into my home. I work during the week from 9:30-6 so before and after work my time and efforts are dedicated to showing your fur babies as much love and attention as possible Even though I don’t have a big yard or a lot of run for your fur babies to play, I’m a sucker for a long run walk and ample time outdoors so that they’re getting their steps in too
About: I've had a love of dogs (and all animals) for as long as I can remember. Though I haven't been blessed with a dog of my own, I often care for my cousins' dogs and cherish every minute spent with them. One of them is a handsome mixed breed little guy named Juno and the other a Great Pyrenees named Rosco. I take them on walks several times a day, feed them, and play with them to their heart's content. They are my furry nephews and I love them so much! I'm a fast learner and a detail-oriented person. I will adjust to your dog's routine quickly. Their safety and well-being is my priority and I will take care of your fur babies with as much attentiveness as I would my own. We will have so much fun and they will get all the love and cuddles they desire! I currently have open availability so I can care for your pets whenever suits you best! I can take them for walks, do drop-ins, or house sit while you’re away. I will treat your home with the utmost respect and will leave it tidy for your return. I will make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while sharing their home with a stranger (soon to be friend)!
“Jenny watched over our cat and our house for 3 weeks and did an absolutely wonderful job. We couldn't have been happier with her care of both the cat and the house -- including keeping us informed during a terrible storm. She's caring and has a delightful sense of humor. You should hire her.”
About: Hi I have been pet sitting for family and friends for about 5 years and have pet sat all different kinds of pets of all different ages, sizes, and personalities . I treat every pet like my own, with lots of patience, engaging playtime, and lots of love. I am currently working on getting my realtors license so I have plenty of free time to play with your fur babies. I am free weekdays and weekends. In your home please walk me through where your pets food is, litter, their favorite hiding spots, their toys , etc. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable regardless of the fact that their family isn’t home.
About: I have a flexible schedule because I work in a hybrid environment. I can do almost any day, including weekends. I’m also able to work from home sometimes, which makes it easier for me to take care of them. I would like to provide visiting or overnight care in customers place so that cats won’t getting anxiety and stay their comfy places. I am passionate and love the interaction with cats
“Rover review She took great care of Hazy while I was away. He unfortunately developed vomiting and diarrhea during my trip, so she had to clean up after him daily and keep a close eye on him. It may have been anxiety- but nonetheless-She even brought a probiotic from home for him, which I really appreciated. I ended up adding three extra visits so she could continue monitoring him, and she was reliable and communicative throughout. I really appreciated her taking on the extra work while Hazy wasn’t feeling well.”

Stephanie is absolutely wonderful! I’ve been booking with her for over a year now, and I couldn’t be happier with her care for my Yeager. She is incredibly patient, kind, and attentive, and it’s clear how much she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. She always sends thoughtful, detailed updates along with lots of pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. I truly appreciate the time and effort she puts into making sure my cat is happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m so grateful to have found someone as reliable and caring as Stephanie, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!
Immediately our kitties Ovi and (even sassy) B took a liking to Cindy. Cindy was flexible and met the kitties few days before the appointment and was very attentive and sweet towards the kitties. Detailed oriented. Provided updates and photo during the visit. Will highly recommend and will use service again.
Amanda is so reassuring to her clients and make sure our pets are being taken care of. She does a great job at communicating and taking care of your pet! Trust me, if you have a sitter or this is your first time doing anything like this, pick her or change your sitter because she’s the best of the best! Thanks Amanda!

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 .
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 , 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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
