“Ambar was amazing with our cats! She was not only extremely caring, but also very communicative and took amazing notes and pictures, keeping us up-to-date while we were gone. Even our shy cat, Pintxo was a huge fan of Ambar. We would absolutely have Ambar back to hang with the kitties again!”
“Julianna was amazing taking care of our fur baby! We had a trip come up and needed last minute coverage, she was a life saver and very flexible! This was actually our first time using Rover, and she made the experience seamless. During our time away she sent us plenty of pictures and let us know how things were going. 10/10 recommend 😊”

About: Hi, I'm Ryan. I live in a house in Elkridge, MD with a large fenced backyard. I run a dog rescue and have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs. I've had dogs from 3lbs to 150lbs. I currently have a 8ish year old mix that is very used to other dogs coming and going. He is a great playmate or nap buddy for other dogs. I have experience with giving medication to dogs and cats ranging from pills, eye cream, ear drops, liquid in the mouth, insulin shots and other injections. I am comfortable and experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I often work from home and am able to be with the dogs most of the day. Most days I am available to go on walks with your pup! I love all dogs and can't wait to meet yours! I require all dogs coming into my yard/home be on flea/tick preventative, up to date on rabies, distemper, bordetella and canine influenza. I work from home so your pet will rarely be alone. I am able to provide extra potty breaks or give extra attention if needed. I have a large grassy backyard with a 4 foot fence and one dog that is always down for a play buddy but will also happily nap on the couch. I have extra crates if ever needed.
“Melissa was such a wonderful cat sitter! My 15 year old cat felt very comfortable with her and I was delighted to see that they got along really well! Melissa was reliable, communicative, and very thorough. She reported back on all the things we had asked her to take care of and I felt very at easy leaving our Lola with her. I will be rebooking for sure!”
“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!”
About: I’ve had my own pets in the past and I love all sorts of pets! It brings me serotonin to be with my furry friends! I’ve pet sat for my neighbors, friends, and family members! I will be working full time later this year and wanted to try out this fun side hustle to make extra cash and bring my serotonin levels up! My house has a big yard area! There’s a couple of parks nearby that are also perfect and I have a variety of pet snacks and toys!
“Had a great experience with Jessica! She took such good care of Truffle during the drop-in visits, kept the litter clean, and made sure food and water were always taken care of. Super reliable and caring — it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away 😊”
About: I've been a professional pet sitter for two years and have had my own kitty for two more! I've taken care of dogs, cats, birds, lizards, no animal too big, no challenge too small. I am currently available for pet care most of the day, every day! I usually prefer mornings, afternoons, and evenings, but can do nights with proper planning! I tend to emphasize being vigilant, not only to make sure nothing wrong happens in the environment, but also to make sure every pet looks happy, healthy, and satisfied. I take my kitty's personal daily, weekly, and monthly maintenance very seriously and am not one to shy from acknowledging if something seems wrong. That's what good communication is for!
About: I’ve had animals since I was a kid, so being around pets has always been a part of my life. I genuinely enjoy caring for them and getting to know their different personalities. Whether it’s going on walks, feeding them, playing with them, or just keeping them company, I want every pet to feel comfortable and cared for. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat yours with the same love and attention I would give my own. I have a flexible schedule and can work with you to find times that fit your pet’s routine. I’m happy to help with walks, drop-in visits, and keeping your pets company while you’re away. I understand how important consistency is for animals, so I’ll do my best to make sure they stay comfortable with their usual routine. I know it can be hard leaving your pets with someone else, so I want you to feel comfortable knowing they’re being cared for. I’ll follow your instructions, make sure they have everything they need, and give them plenty of attention. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates while you’re away so you can see how they’re doing!
About: I've had a houseful of pets my whole life and I've always loved animals. I've been pet sitting since I was a teenager, and I have volunteered at an animal shelter. I'm familiar with many aspects of pet care such as walking dogs, socializing cats, cleaning waste and messes, administering medication, and spoiling them of course! My goal is always the safety and comfort of all the pets I care for. I recently moved back to the DC area and have plenty of time to care for your pets while I continue my employment search. I am available from 9am to 6pm most days. I cannot currently offer in-home pet care. I am able to check in on your pets in your home. It is important to me to follow all instructions given by the pet owner and to ensure the best care possible.
About: Lifelong pet lover & rescue dog mom! My affection for animals began at a young age. There were always dogs and cats in my home. As an adult, I have always had a dog I have provided dog walks, drop-in visits, and in-home care for family, friends, and private clients’ pets for decades. I'm comfortable with shy dogs, rescues, and seniors that need a little extra TLC. My priority is to make your furry family member feel safe, happy, and loved. I provide walks and drop-in visits between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m daily. For requests outside of my regular hours, additional fees may apply. Same-day appointments may be available. I follow your instructions to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medications, I provide attentive and individualized care.
“Karen was extremely helpful and affectionate towards my cat T-Bone. She checked in every day and sent thoughtful and informative messages about my cat. Karen spent a lot of time with my cat during check-ins, and also helped with litter and checking my cat’s food and water dishes. Karen sent numerous pictures and videos after each visit. She was overall very flexible, a good communicator, and a great comfort while I was away from my pet. I really appreciate her help and would recommend.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Wheaton-Glenmont
Joe is amazing! My old kitty warmed up to him and connected to him right away. He definitely speaks animals! He was able to get my kitty his inhaler every day while we were gone, and I know that has been challenging with previous sitters. He was very patient and kind with my cat and gave great updates. 10/10 recommend Joe to care for your furbabies.
Ambar was absolutely fantastic!! She went above and beyond for a last minute booking and was very flexible with fitting in a meet and greet. During her visits, Ambar sent lots of videos and photos of my kitty. We appreciated the detailed rover cards about her drop in visits! It was such a relief to know Kermie was so well cared for while we were away. Would absolutely recommend Ambar for professional and attentive kitty care!
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!
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!
Ilana is great! She took care of our senior cat Fifi while we were away for a week and a half. It was a bit of a last minute request and Ilana was very accommodating. We felt very comfortable going out of town knowing Fifi was in Ilana’s care. She kept us updated the entire time, giving us peace of mind so that we could enjoy our time away. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be reaching out again next time we need someone to drop in on Fifi.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Wheaton-Glenmont is $35 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $50 per visit.

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. 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.
