“Sydni is a wonderful cat sitter. She sends detailed narratives as well as cute pictures each time. She gave Corona the attention he needed, besides taking care of his basic needs. I’ll certainly request Sydni again, and highly recommend her to other pet guardians.”
“Maura took great care of my fur baby and provided plenty of pictures throughout their time together. Layla is very shy but Maura was able to get her to warm up to her! Thank you again”
“Coral had our back when our travel plans got messed up and we were stranded. Within an hour of my contacting her, she was at our door making sure our cats got fed and had fresh water. THANK YOU CORAL!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit anxious how it would go and giving a stranger access to our home. Especially because one of our 2 cats has kidney disease kitty and needs fluid injections every 2 days. But Sarah was absolutely lovely and awesome. You can see that she loved our two kitties, and it looks like everything went really well with our kidney patient. I got pictures and videos every day and they both warmed up easily to Sarah. Sarah gave me a real piece of mind while traveling and I will definitely book her next time I need a sitter ( if she is available). Thank you!!!”
“Drew was amazing taking care of our cat. He is very passionate and very responsive . He is very detailed oriented and keeps good records of his visits. We will definitely reach out to him to take care of Forest in future.”
“As always, LP was so great with our kitty! I know we are leaving her in good hands and she is well taken care of. LP is responsive and always sends photo updates so we know how she is doing while we are away. Would definitely hire again!”
“Anton was so wonderful. Easy communication, reliable, did exactly what I hoped a cat sitter would do, and even formed a friendship with my very skittish cat. High marks all around. We would love to hire him again.”
About: Just like cats, I’ve had several dogs, big or small. I’ve helped at my local shelter, feeding the dogs their medication, and spending long hours understanding them. I’m currently unemployed, I’ll have all day to tend to your pups/kitties! I’m currently studying virtually, so I can always prioritize them above all. I have a large yard and several parks in my vicinity/nature trail. I have a 2500 sq ft floor, meaning I have plenty of room for a fuzzy friend.
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.
“Amy took outstanding care of our diabetic cat while we were away, making sure he was fed and received his insulin injections twice each day exactly as instructed. She was consistently prompt and reliable, which gave us tremendous peace of mind knowing our pets were on schedule. In addition to caring for our cat, she also fed the local community cats that we oversee. Her attention to detail, compassion, and genuine care for animals were evident throughout her visits. Amy communicated well, followed every instruction carefully, and went above and beyond our expectations. We would gladly trust her with our cat again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable and caring pet care! 10 outta 10!”
“Erin really did me a "solid" and was able to watch my kitties last minute for the holidays. Always kept me up-to-date on visits and also provided some very cute pics during the visits.”
About: My name is Tiana Palmer. Born & raised in Baltimore, MD by way of Dallas, TX. I travel back and forth from both areas for work and open to welcoming new clients as the fall/winter season is approaching. I have always had a passion for taking care of animals, especially canines. I have plenty of clients who can vouch that at all times their dog, cat, even a turtle can be trusted in my hands. With my personable spirit and love for the animals I have been recognized by my peers and colleagues on numerous occasions about my enthusiasm and passion for care taking. My availability is pretty open. I’m usually free for walks in the morning til the evening. If it’s overnights I will follow the client’s schedule. I have extensive experience in animal welfare, animal behavior and language. Also, prompt if meds are needed for pet. The schedule such as feedings, walks, baths and etc. that the client has for their animal it will be as followed.
“Carinna was amazing! She was very reliable and communicative. She went above and beyond as a caregiver for our 20+ year old cat, including delivering treats when he couldn't be bothered to use the stairs. Her time here really made for a worry-free vacation, I would definitely recommend her!”
About: Hello! I am a PhD student at UMD studying black bear ecology. I have been an animal lover since I could talk. I own a German shepherd but I’ve had cats and dogs my whole life. I’ve watched many animals throughout the years for colleagues and friends. I’m new to rover sitting but I am reliable, will be very communicative, and provide the best care to your furry friend. I am a full time student, but I have very flexible hours. I’m open any time on the weekends, as long as I have a few days notice. I can be flexible to your needs!

Whether you're heading out for a weekend or an extended vacation, I offer personalized, attentive care to keep your pets safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm trustworthy, detail-oriented, and flexible to your pet's needs - from energetic pups to mellow seniors.

“Virginia took excellent care of Louis while we were out of town for 10 days. We were so happy to come back to a healthy happy cat and clean house - he had no accidents! Virginia went above and beyond to care for him and make sure everything was in order. Would definitely rebook!”
“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: I’m adaptable to the specific needs of any pet, whether it be diet, sleep, or their exercise routine. My schedule allows me to spend a lot of time with anxious pets or any who enjoy a lot of interaction, but I respect the boundaries of pets who enjoy their space. I’m currently available full-time. I was laid off this spring due to federal budget cuts and I now spend most of my time coding, reading, or writing. I follow the instructions given by the owner and reach out for clarification if needed. I make sure to take care of all checklist items before the end of the stay.
“Edgar was great when dealing with all of my anxieties related to leaving my cat Licorice. He was also great with the cat and I really liked the pictures he took. It helped me be able to enjoy my trip.”

Kim was super professional and took great care of our two cats. She was organized, communicative, and spent plenty of time playing with our cats during her daily visits. We got lots of great pictures and detailed updates too! I’d definitely recommend Kim to others.
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!
Nichole took care of my two cats (and my plant) while I was gone for two days. One of my cats is anxious but he warmed up to her, much to my surprise (he usually hides when guests are over). She was also very gracious and accommodating when my itinerary changed at the last minute. I highly recommend her as a cat sitter and would work with her again.
Joe took wonderful care of our cat Sunday. He sent so many amazing photos and bonded with our weird cat pretty quickly. He checked in each day with us daily to let us know how our cat was doing. He’s very responsive and very responsible and we really appreciate the fact that we have someone to trust with our cat. Thanks Joe.
Ashley did a great job caring for our cats! The first time she came over to meet our girls, she asked really thoughtful questions about them and their routine. This told me she really cared about what she was doing and our cats were in good hands. She did a great job taking care of our kitty that gets medicine, and was able to adapt when our girl wasn't being super cooperative. We always got lots of cute pictures, and great updates on their Rover cards that made us less homesick. I feel like I can look forward to more trips, knowing that Ashley did such a great job with our fur babies!
Faith was amazing!! It’s always very anxiety inducing for me to leave my cats, especially since my one is very shy and easily startled. But she took such good care of them and even got my loner cat to come out for some love!! Faith is very communicative and I loved that she sent plenty of pictures each day. It’s obvious that she loves the cats and taking care of animals! I will not hesitate to book her next time I’m out of town :)

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.

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.
