Virginia was great/ she kept me informed the whole time, sent me plenty of pictures and videos. Our pups are not high maintenance by any means but I like for them to stay active and not just lay around and she did a good job of keeping them entertained through out the day. Will be using her for drop ins that how much we enjoyed her !

About: I’m very well around with pets, not only am I good in pet care I’m also a dog groomer (8 years) so I know a lot about animals and what they need. I’m doing this full time so I have so much time on my hands to spend with your furry babies. Plus I love walking and doing play dates or just going on a hike. I have two wonderful playful dogs who would love to make friends and join us on our hiking or long walk days. Even to just come to the dog park with us.

Jessica was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Riley and Cash while we were away, providing updates and photos that truly put our mind at ease. It was clear she treated them like her own, giving them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups, and I couldn’t be more grateful. If you're looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter, Jessica is the one to book! I’ll definitely be using her services again.

About: I stand out because I genuinely treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and active, so I can keep up with energetic pets while also providing gentle care for seniors who need a slower pace. I’m experienced with basic training for younger pets, including reinforcing routines and good behavior, and I’m always mindful of each pet’s unique personality and needs. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring, reliable hands. I currently work form and run my business from my house , so pet sitting will just be another great addition to my around the house activities. I have a 1300 sq ft back yard that is fenced safe and pet secured , once I meet each pet I learn their personality and traits and then we work on building a routine that works for them .

About: Since I was a little girl I have always loved animals and wanted to be a veterinarian. Growing up I have raised and fostered over 20+ dogs, cats/kittens. I have also had the blessing of being able to raise a couple of ducks, geese, chickens, rabbits, and some reptiles. Had my mother let me, I would have requested a whole farm, however there were other important teachings in my adolescent years. Pet care easily fits into my flexible schedule as I am completely remote. My company is based out of Ohio and is mostly administration work which allows me the blessing to travel with my laptop and work from anywhere. I have a large backyard and a doggy door. I have three lynx point siamese kittens. All of my pets are fully vaccinated. I have three loving kids and a vast 5 bedroom home. I ask that we are completely open about your furbabys needs, so I can prepare at making them feel like they are on a vacation. And that you have peace of mind while they are here being cared for. If you’re on vacation, your babies should be too. Pet care fits into my schedule 24:7. I am completely remote and can assure you that your fur baby will receive top notch hospitality, love and attention. You should feel safe leaving your furbaby here when traveling. I always prefer a tour of our home with your pet so they feel at ease when the time comes for drop off. Furbabys can sense their owners emotions when entering a new place.

Makayla was fantastic! She was attentive, reliable, and always arrived early. She stayed overnight in our home while we were out of town, caring for our two dogs, and gave us complete peace of mind. Our dogs were well cared for, happy, and comfortable throughout our trip. She also took great care of our home, leaving everything clean, organized, and exactly as we left it. We truly appreciated her professionalism and communication, and we would gladly have her watch our dogs again. Highly recommend!

About: I’ve taken care of animals all my life. I’m used to being around several types of animals but I’ve always loved dogs. My family and I enjoy taking walks and we enjoy taking fur babies out for a walk. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule. I am also able to make adjustments when needed. If there is anything specifically your fur baby is use to as far as routine, please share. I will make adjustments as needed to best adjust to the routine the client already has with their dog. For boarding, dogs will be allowed to be running around the backyard. Also, they are able to freely be around the house.

About: As an experienced dog trainer and devoted dog lover, I have trained three dogs, including my current therapy dog. I have worked with all breeds, both large and small, and I understand the unique needs of each. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, often hiking and walking with dogs. I prioritize their well-being and am committed to providing attentive care and encouragement. As a teacher, I am organized and reliable, with multiple references available upon request. I look forward to ensuring your dog receives the care and exercise they deserve. As a part-time teacher, I have a flexible schedule that allows me ample time to check in on your pets. Whether it's for daily walks, playtime, or feeding, I can accommodate your pet's needs throughout the week. Rest assured that your furry family members will receive the attention and care they deserve while you are away. Let me know how I can assist you in keeping your pets happy and healthy! Welcome to my home, where your furry friends will feel right at home! I have a spacious, fenced-in yard featuring a safe, grassy turf area for plenty of playtime. There’s also a pool that is securely fenced off, providing peace of mind while your pets enjoy the outdoors. The large play area includes agility tools for those who want to engage in some fun training sessions, as well as a variety of dog toys for endless entertainment. Additionally, there’s a designated sniffing area where dogs can explore their natural instincts. It's a well-equipped space for dogs to play, explore, and relax!

About: I have pet sat cats, dogs, fish, and hamsters! I get most of my jobs off facebook or instagram outside of this pet sitting app. I work part time so I would still have to able to leave for work if pet sitting and if walking or visiting I would be able to visit outside of my work schedule. I follow whatever instructions are left for me and follow them as close as possible. I personally don’t own any pets because my roommates are allergic.

About: I am a 37 year old critical care nurse who is on a break from healthcare :). I have been a nurse since 2012 and recently experienced burnout working at bedside. I have always had dogs of my own since I can remember and I also have years of experience pet-sitting, volunteering at animal care and control, as well as caring for my own dogs (that are now geriatric). I have two small dogs under 10 lbs but I also have experience with large breed dogs from volunteering at the shelter as well as walking my partner's german shepherd, pitbull, and rotweiler regularly. As I am unemployed currently, I have a very flexible schedule. I currently live in a townhome that has a very small fenced in back yard area. I was dog boarding and walking for rover years ago (as you will see in my reviews- just to be clear- the pictures of the yard and home on my account is no longer where I am living). I am mostly looking to dogsit/ dogwalk in the customers home but can occasionally also board in my own home if it is a good fit with my own dogs and home. I encourage doing a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure we are a good fit. I have a maltese/ yorkie (Morkie) mix - 14 years old and a wire-haired terrier mix who is 9 years old. I treat my dogs like human babies, they sleep with me in the bed and lay with me on the couch and have full reign of the house:) I would love to meet you and your fur baby/babies! I look forward to giving your dog lots of love, long walks, playtime, and whatever else they may need! I am available and willing to give VERY early morning walks or later evening walks during the hot months of the summer so your dog can get some exercise before the pavement is baked! Your dog will be treated and loved as if they were my own spoiled fur baby:) Texting or calling is the best communication for me! I am available anytime of the day. I am available for pet care on any days of the week/ weekend currently. I will keep my availability calendar up to date with my current availability. I am willing to take your pups on early morning or late evening walks to avoid the heat. I am mostly looking to dogsit/ dog board in the client's home but if it is a good fit with my dogs and my own home, will consider dogboarding/ sitting in my own home. Willing to stay overnight in client's home and or stay there throughout the day to hang out with your pup (not just drop in briefly to feed/ walk/let out).

FAQs for House Sitting - Arlington

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 468 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Arlington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Arlington walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Arlington maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Arlington choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

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 .

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Arlington. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% can help with daily exercise

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.
