“Teffni took amazing care of my cats over a long week. She sent lots of pictures and she even got my shy girl to make an appearance or two! I would definitely call on Teffni again in the future. :)”
“Mary was awesome! She took excellent care of our two cats and we were very lucky she was available last minute on a holiday weekend. We would absolutely rebook with Mary again :)”
“Julianna did a great job keeping us informed of how our kitty was doing during our five days away from home, always sending pictures and giving us updates on how the kitty was handling our absence. We recommend her highly.”
“Samuel was a wonderful sitter! He was very attentive and responsible, he sent great summaries and pictures, and was flexible when fitting me in last minute. My rambunctious kitty had a great with him!”
“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.”
“Nuha made my trip so much more enjoyable by providing really great details about what she and my cat got up to. I also loved how many photos she sent. My friends who have checked in on my cat previously sometimes didn't send a single photo the whole time I was away! Using Rover and Nuha specifically was so worth it. Nuha also was very patient with me when my apartment complex door/security system had glitches. I'd 100% recommend her and hope to book with her again in the future!”
“Angela was very responsive throughout my cat’s 4-day stay with her. It was my cat’s first time being away from home and she was very scared. Angela sent videos of her and video-called several times so that she could be as comforted in her new environment as possible. I highly recommend Angela for your pet-sitting needs!”
“Karrah did a great job following detailed instructions, sending updates, and asking questions as needed. I knew Mellon was in safe hands. I would definitely book Karrah again.”
About: Experienced with dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. Skilled in puppy training, basic obedience, trick training, and senior dog care, including medication support and mobility assistance. Comfortable with grooming tasks such as brushing, bathing, and coat maintenance. I focus on creating a safe, positive, and fun environment for every dog in my care. I am available for dog walking weekdays from 6 am to 2:30 pm. My weekend availability is all day for both Saturday and Sunday. As for pet sitting I am available as needed. I organize my day around the pets needs including feeding schedule, exercise & play schedule, and unique needs. Leashes are always used unless a closed area is available and allowed by the owner.
“Gabrielle took wonderful care of our cat, Izzy, while we were out of town. She stopped by for the initial meeting, sent a thorough summary of all that we discussed, and then kept me informed daily as to how things were going. She not only took great care of Izzy, including giving her daily medication, she also managed to make friends with her! Izzy is normally very uncomfortable around people outside of our family so that was a real accomplishment. Gabrielle also watered our plants daily. I will definitely call on her again for future pet sitting needs!”
About: Growing up, my house was full in the best way possible. Every pet was treated like family, and I learned early on that each animal has its own personality, needs, and way of showing affection. I’ve helped care for dogs, cats, hamsters, chinchillas, snakes, guinea pigs, fish, and more. That range means I’m comfortable with more than the usual routine. I pay close attention to body language and habits, and I can keep you updated with photos and notes. I’ll treat your pet the way I’d want my own pets to be treated! I’m working full-time from 10am-7pm, but I’m flexible outside of those hours. I’m also a graduate student, so I know how to use my time wisely. I like to stay busy. I have a secure house and I’m very respectful when entering someone else’s home. I’ll leave everything as-is and perform tasks with ease and composure.
About: Hi, my name is Tselmuun! I’m an accountant based in Rockville, where I live with my family and my cat, Noche. I work hybrid with office days in DC, so I have limited availability on Mondays/Fridays/weekends to care for your fur buddies 😊 My Pet Care Background: Growing up, my family had dogs, and after graduating college, I rescued Noche in November 2020. He’s been my best friend and a huge source of comfort, especially during the pandemic. Along with caring for Noche, I’ve also pet-sat for my friends, neighbors, and roommates when they were out of town or unavailable. I know firsthand how much our pets mean to us, and I promise to care for yours as if they were my own. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your furry friends!🐾 I currently work as an accountant with a hybrid schedule, which gives me availability on my remote days (Mondays and Fridays)! Though I have limited availability, I’m committed to caring for your precious animals as if they were my own. I live in a two-story house in a quiet, safe neighborhood, ideal for ensuring your pet's comfort and security. We have a beautiful lake and running trail nearby, perfect for walking your dogs and giving them some fresh air. My home also features a fenced yard, providing a secure space for playtime and outdoor relaxation. I take pride in maintaining a clean, pet-friendly environment where your fur babies can feel safe, loved, and well cared for.
“Lynleigh took such great care of my elder cats. Diaper changes, meds of all kinds, cuddles and took out the trash! I rarely leave town and was a little nervous, but after the first few updates and everyone looking well-cared for, I felt so much better.”
“I loved how wonderful you are in taking care of Finn. You took professional pictures and made Finn look like a model. I'm so glad he behaved with you. I would love to have you back if I need you again in the future.”
“I simply cannot express the relief I had while traveling with Vanessa as my house/pet sitter. I have 2 cats and was babysitting my daughters cat, who arrived the day I left. Vanessa sent pics everyday of the cats snuggled with her or chilling in their fav spots! My trip was very unexpected, and it was my first time using Rover. I’ve always wary booked Vanessa again for a trip I had planned and was going to take my cat to my daughters, but it was so much more relaxing for them here in their home❤️”
About: I haven’t taken care of dogs since I was five years old. I enjoy taking them on walks feeding them bathing them and making sure they’re comfortable. I provide pet care daily, weekly and overnight stays. I am also available all day weekends. I am flexible and will try to work with parents schedule as needed. I provided early morning services and evenings. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet. I follow each pet parent’s instructions carefully, keep pets indoors and supervised, and make sure they have fresh food, water, and a calm space.
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have been a trusted sitter to friends and family for many years! I’m patient with shy pets and playful with more outgoing personalities! I work a full time 9-5 schedule but can do drop-ins and walks before and after work! Also available in specific weekends with prior notice! I currently have my own pets so I can only visit animals in their homes but I like to tailor my approach to match the pet’s personality and the owners specific needs!
“Coralie watched Beau while we were away for our wedding week and gave us SO many lovely updates, it almost felt like he was here with us! Not a single worry about his eating or allergies because she was so on top of it. She’s the best sitter ever!!!”
“Shasta is the best pet sitter ever. With all the updates and cute photos she sent, I felt like I was in the room with her and my cat having fun. She's so communicative, respectful, and wonderful with my cat. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

Liza was a lifesaver and accepted our request for a drop in visit with only a few days notice. She took great care of our cat. We appreciated the pictures she sent and it was obvious our cat, who is normally very scared around strangers, was very happy, relaxed and comfortable around her. Would definitely recommend!
Highly recommend! Quantairra was flexible with my last-minute booking and provided updates after each visit. My scaredy cat, who normally hides under my bed whenever new people come over, actually came out on the first day, let Quantairra pet her and engaged in some playtime. Honestly, that alone deserves 5 stars!!
This was our second time having Edgar look after our cats, and he did a great job again! He sent fantastic photos and videos each day, which we loved getting while we were away. It was reassuring to know our cats were in good hands. We’d happily book him again!
Becca is great! She’s taking care of my foster kitties twice now and is so good with them. I always get detailed reports so I don’t have to worry about them! She also went above and beyond, even coordinating with the rescue so that they could be in the loop with their care.
Marika checked in on our two cats while we were on vacation. She was thorough in her communications, took great pictures, and gave our cats excellent care. They were peaceful and calm when we got home, a sure sign that they were happy while we were gone. Were very grateful!

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Wheaton is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $33 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.

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 .

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 , 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.
