“Tyasia was absolutely amazing!!! My baby Oreo absolutely adored her. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She also played with her and made sure she got love and cuddles. I would definitely trust her with my cat again. Thank you again so much Tyasia, you made me feel a little less anxious while on vacation 🥰”
“I love how conscientious Matilda is with all of our requests and providing feedback to us during her visits. My cat, Milo, is warming up to her and has even spent time on her lap (for my Scardy Cat - that is amazing). I hope to continue to use her during our travels.”
“Erin was an amazing pet sitter. Two of our kitties loved her, and she got eyes (and pictures!) of our third baby, who is anxious and loves to hide. She made sure to check our girl’s breathing, since she has asthma and was able to reassure that she was doing well. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing she was taking care of our kitty crew. We would definitely book her again.”
“Big thanks to Natalia and Edward for taking such amazing care of our two cats! They were very attentive and communicative and made sure everything went smooth while we were away. I could tell my cats were happy and well-loved, which says a lot of the care Natalia and Edward provided. I really appreciated the updates—they kept me totally at ease. I am particularly thankful for the daily pictures and for flagging that one of the automatic feeders wasn't working properly. Reach out to them if you’re looking for trustworthy pet sitters.”
“Des, Thank you so much for taking such good care of Hello during our emergency. You did an excellent job with the fluid injections—you’re such a quick learner and incredibly patient. We truly appreciate all your help. We’ll definitely hire you again in the future as our pet sitter. You’ve done an outstanding job!”
“Julia was great - she is very responsive and detail-orientated. The cats knocked over a photo frame during our trip and she cleaned up the glass for us because she knew it would be a hazard for their little paws. Great cat sitter, definitely plan to hire Julia again!”
“Corinne was great with my three cats. Two of them are very affectionate and need a lot of love. The third is really shy. Cornnie spent a lot of time with the needy ones and had calm energy for the shy one. My shy cat actually ended up headbutting her by the end of the week and he has never done that with a sitter before! We will be booking with Cornnie again.”
About: My whole life I’ve grown up wanting to own a pet, and have another member of my family. Ever since I got a german shepherd he has been my best friend in the whole world. Taking care of dogs and cats brings me the most joy in the world. I would love to be able to spend time with your loved one(s)!!!! I am an active duty member of the Coast Guard, but, I am available throughout the week to come and take care and give attention to your cat/dog. Ever since I left home I have been missing my dog so much, and have been eager to continue loving animals in my new home! Knowing all information from the pet owner, I will keep all pets safe and happy, and take care of them as my own. And make sure they have a great time and feel loved.
“Jasmine was great with my cat Socks. She was patient with him during her check ins which made him to be comfortable enough to be brave and say hi and ask for pets!”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and know how to take care of them. I’ve had a dog of my own until he passed away recently. The care and safety of your pets is my top priority. I believe in effective communication, so I will try my best to keep you updated throughout the process. I follow all my clients’ instructions and preferences, so you don’t have to worry about your home while you’re away; I make sure everything is locked up, treat your belongings with respect, and leave your home just as you left it so you can come back without extra stress, especially knowing how exhausting travel can be. I work fully remote so I work from home, so I can pack up and stay in your home whenever I'm available. I tend to adapt my daily schedule around my new roommates' schedules, so they don't get stressed out by the situation. I can also be of assistance for drop-in visits and for walking service. work fully remote so I work from home, so 1 can pack up and stay in your home whenever I'm available.

“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’ve taken care of my own dog for 10+ years and dog sit a golden doodle semi regularly. I have experience with dog sitting younger and older dog. I’m working full time as a software engineer, but I work from home on most Tuesdays and Fridays and free on the weekends. I am able to come back and walk during the days I’m in office. Feel free to ask if a certain time is available! I’m open to suggestions. I have plenty of space for your dog to run around my neighborhood and around my house. I can also support crate training. My main options are dog walking, pet boarding and check ins. I am unable to do overnight care at a client’s home.
“Christina was the best cat sitter we have had! Extremely responsive, extremely attentive to our three cats with very different personalities. Sent us a ton of photos to keep us updated and even helped us grab our mail when we got an unexpected delivery. We will 10000% rebook with Christina again!”
About: I've taken care of dogs of every shape and size, from a 13 year old great Dane to the tiniest dachshund puppy. I love all dogs, and believe bad dogs don't exist. I work as hard as possible to ensure the needs of every animal are fulfilled. As a dog mom myself I understand how important it is to leave your fur baby with someone you trust. I work full time as a Veterinary Technician at a local hospital. I have two years of experience, and started completely green, and have now progressed to assisting in surgery and providing dental cleanings and xrays. I have nursed and monitored both cats and dogs through many emergencies, from wounds and animal attacks to various chronic and infectious diseases. I am familiar with signs and symptoms of illness and keep a very close eye on all of my guests for symptoms. I am currently in a remote collage program to become registered in the state of Maryland, and earn the title of RVT. My passion is for senior dogs, and making sure their special needs are met and they're given every bit of love they deserve. One day I hope to be in a position to foster senior dogs, and provide a safe, loving place while they search for their forever home. I work full time Tuesday-Friday, so there is some time any guests would need to be crated. My mother lives next door and can let guests out or simply give them attention when I am unable. The alternative is I am able to take canine guests with me to work, where they can stay with me at the hospital, where I can provide multiple walks a day and round the clock monitoring. I am home all day Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly pups to keep any guests company. I also have a cat who is very outgoing with dogs. There is a pool your pup can swim in if they desire, but they will never be left alone around it and all outside time/potty breaks are fully supervised. Inside they'll have access to the living room, where I have couches and beds to lounge on as well as constant access to water and/or food depending on your dog's feeding schedule, and my bedroom where they can sleep on a Big Barker orthopedic dog bed, in their crate, or on my own bed depending on preference. There are also lots of toys spread around the house and yard ranging from ropes, chew toys, squeakers, and balls to chase. As for cats, they will be confined to my bedroom during the day, where I have various beds and climbing furniture for them to enjoy. At night they're confined to a walk in closet I have set up for cats. If they are friendly they are more than welcome to enjoy supervised time with my own pets, but it very much depends on individual temperament as safety of all guests and my own companions is top priority.
“Yasmine is the best person you could possibly have to care for your fur baby! All week I received detailed visit reports and many adorable pictures. First time I had left my 7 year old big kitty but after first visit knew he was in the best of hands! Yasmine even washed the couch cover when he threw up and took out trash/litter which I never would have expected. She figured out his favorite thing is to snuggle on top of you and indulged him. Yasmine will be one I call when need arises and I strongly recommend her!!!!!!”
About: For as long as I can remember, my family has had pets. I've had the opportunity to love and care for many wonderful animals over the years including geckoes, cats, and dogs, including my current darling cat Artemis. I live in downtown Silver Spring, MD, right by the metro station, so I can get around very easily. I'm used to caring for animals both big dogs and those who require a gentle touch, and I make sure to look after their safety and happiness. I also have experience caring for older dogs, and I am happy to tailor my care to their needs. When caring for others' pets, I make sure to provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins. My goal as a sitter is simple: to give you peace of mind and to provide your pet with safety, care, and love while they wait to see their favorite people in the world once again. I am currently in-between positions, and so have a large degree of availability for taking care of your pets. I have availability any day of the week at this time. My home is a small, 1 bedroom apartment, but the building borders a small park area which itself contains a dog park for walking needs.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Laurel
Matilda is very dependable and conscientious. Our Cat love is very comfortable with her and I can tell because if Milo is stressed, she looses hair on her ears. After being gone over 2 1/2 week and Matilda caring for her, Milo did not loose any hair at all! That might sound silly, but it shows us how much our cat trusts Matilda.
This was our first time using Rover. We were very pleased with our cat sitter, Denise. We enjoyed her reports and photos of Callie and Winston. The pictures show that she got them to play with toys they like and even some they usually don't pay much attention to. We have already booked Denise for when we are away on a longer trip next month.
Rachel has a confident, calm and caring approach to pet care. She is professional, on time and flexible with the needs of each of the dogs and cat (and me!) Rachel took the time to understand each of their personalities and bonded with them, and provided fantastic communication and feed back during the entire booking period.
Tyasia took such good care of our cats the first time that we needed a sitter that we rebooked her when we went on another trip! Booking was a breeze and she gave us fantastic daily updates of the kitties and sent photos. We have one cat who is quite fearful and hid, but Tyasia was able to find her hiding spot and leave her bowl and some treats nearby to ensure she was taken care of. We came home to two happy cats and we are incredibly grateful!
Nathalie is an outstanding cat sitter. We came home to very happy, healthy, and well loved cats. Nathalie was a great communicator about how our cats were doing and helped us work through getting them used to their new feeders. We loved the daily photos and the clear peace of mind knowing they were being taken care of so professionally.
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in West Laurel is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $32 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,613 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across West 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 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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
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.
