“Evelyn is fantastic! We did a quick meet and greet with my pup and I knew she would be in good hands. Evelyn loves dogs and she is so sweet with my dog Fern! We are so happy to have found Evelyn!”
“Andrew is amazing with Ariel. It is great to have someone I trust to take so good care of my fur child. I appreciate the responsiveness and follow up. Super recommend Andrew for dog walks, drop ins, etc”
“Shelby did a wonderful job sitting for my two cats while I was out of town! She ensured they were fed, watered and overall well. She played with them and hung out with them to give them some companionship while I was away. Her communication and follow up is excellent. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a cat sitter!”
“Ayme was excellent! She sent multiple pictures while dropping in to check on our pup while we we’re away and spent lots of time outside with her! Ayme even went over to let our dog out an extra time since we hit traffic on our way home. Her flexibility and thorough check ins made the weekend stress free! We will definitely be contacting her again! Thanks Ayme!”
“Trent is a great petsitter for our cats - reliable, punctual, and communicative. This was our first time using him, and I’m so happy I found someone that I can trust to use again in the future. Highly recommend him!”
“Sophia was fantastic! She was punctual and responsive during both the meet & greet and her drop-in visit. She asked thoughtful questions and quickly picked up on the different personalities of our pups. It was clear her priority was keeping them happy and entertained while we were away. We highly recommend her and will definitely call on her again in the future”
“Sam is one for the best pet sitters you’ll ever find! She is responsible, reliable, incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and truly a cat whisperer. Even my shy cat took a liking to her right away! Excellent communication and her beautiful spontaneous pet photos are a big bonus! She also watered my plants and they thrived. I came home after nearly three weeks away to two healthy and happy cats. I commend her to you 100%!”
“We loooove Sarah, she’s been our Pittie’s Sitter for the last 6 months and we trust very few people with their care but Sarah is at the top of the list. She keeps constant communication, helps us in a pinch, gives our dogs cuddles and sends the best pictures.”

“Lindsay did a fantastic job with Pepper during the drop-in visit. From the start, she was incredibly attentive and thoughtful - she even took notes during our meet and greet, which showed how much she cared about getting everything right. During the visit, she made sure Pepper was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. She also kept me updated, which gave me great peace of mind. It was clear she paid close attention to instructions and genuinely cared about Pepper’s well-being. I’d absolutely trust Lindsay again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, detail-oriented, and caring sitter.”
“Bianca and Charles were amazing pet sitters, and took great care of my cat. They provided great communication and were incredibly flexible. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for someone to take care of your furry loved ones! 🐱”
“Melissa has provided outstanding care to our miniature dachshund Charlie. After my initial outreach to Melissa, her communication was excellent and we could tell immediately that Charlie would be comfortable with her even though he is sometimes apprehensive about people he hasn’t met. For over a month, Melissa has provided reliable daily care for Charlie which has given our family peace of mind during a time of transition. With both my wife and then me being off work for almost a year on parental leave, we were concerned Charlie would be spiteful of our return to both working. Melissa’s excellent care, attention to Charlie and reliability clearly helped Charlie settle into our new routine. We give Melissa our highest recommendation and are grateful for her care!”
About: I don't have much experience with dogs as the only dog I interact with is my own, however, I am open to sitting all types. I'm currently working as a food delivery driver and have a flexible schedule. I'm fairly new to dog sitting and will try to provide the best service. I walk my dog about four times a day for roughly 30 minutes to and hour. Usually give her peanut butter as a treat or any vegetables that she may like.
“Bethany was great with our dogs and they were happy and well cared for! One of our dogs needs insulin injections with meals and that makes it harder to find someone to take care of him, so connecting with Bethany was a relief! She has experience with injections and was a pro at administering his meds! We will definitely reach out to Bethany again - 5+ stars!”
“Ari is a really good dog- visitor! My miniature dachshund warmed to her quickly and looked forward to her visit every day. She has a good understanding of dogs and how to win them over. I will certainly use her again, even for a longer time.”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Annandale is $22

Bethany is a superstar in caring for my cat, King! She provided me with daily updates and a photo, and I could tell from the look on his face that he was getting the care (and brushing!) he needed. She told me that he even gave her some "head bumps" which clearly showed how much he liked her.
Ni did a great job watching our cat while we were away for two weeks. She was very diligent about providing many pictures daily showing her completing each activity that we asked her to do, much more so than other cat sitters we have used in the past. Our cat is older and requires some specialized care, including a couple medications and cleaning up frequent messes she makes, having more difficulty than younger cats with her daily activities. Ni did everything she needed too well and diligently. We would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.
Lindsay was the best! I have a very clingy cat and she didn't hesitate to sit down and spend some time with her every visit. I received text and photo updates every day. It was a big relief knowing my favorites were taken care of while I was away. I'll be booking Lindsay for my time away in the future for sure!
Virginia was great with our two cats while we were away for our wedding, it was great to have peace of mind that they were in good hands. She very clearly loves cats and treated them with so much respect from their very first meeting! She also gave us updates through the Rover app each visit letting us know what mischief the cats got up to!
Katrina was the first pet sitter we have had outside of family members. She is responsive and caring. She was very flexible with the changing needs of our three senior cats and took the time to make sure they got what they needed. She communicated with us during the booking and adapted as needed. We recommend Katrina and are planning to rebook for our next trip.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Annandale on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,267 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Annandale. 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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
