“Bekah has proven to be dependable, punctual, and trustworthy. During my time away, Bekah regularly sent photos, and messages, which gives us peace of mind. Even my timid pet warmed up to her. Furthermore, she left my home clean, tidy, and secure. Any pet owner would be lucky to have Bekah look after their pets.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a natural and important part of my life. I currently have a little over 2-year-old Bernedoodle who is playful, energetic, and loves being around people and other dogs. Having a dog of my own has given me plenty of experience with the daily responsibilities that come with caring for an active pup. I genuinely love spending time with dogs, whether that means going for walks, playing and keeping them active, or simply relaxing and giving them plenty of cuddles and attention. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog’s individual personality and needs. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, just like I would want for my own dog. I’m currently a physical therapy student, so my schedule varies from day to day. I’m available most weekends and have availability on some weekdays after 3 PM. I’m happy to communicate my availability in advance and work with you to find a time that fits both of our schedules. I plan to provide care primarily in the pet’s home rather than boarding pets in my own home. I understand that every pet has different routines, needs, and preferences, and I’m happy to follow any instructions provided by the owner. I’ll make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away, while also respecting your home and keeping their usual routine as consistent as possible.
About: I'm a semi-retired RN, a dog mom and a dog grandma ready to love on your fur babies while you're away. I've cared for dogs for 30 plus years, and I've rescued all my own dogs. I never met one I didn't love. We'll walk and help expend some energy during the day. A played out dog is a happy dog! I'm currently working 2 days a week, so I have time to spend with your fur babies whether you need one visit a day or two. I will take them on a walk or spend time with them in your backyard. I can administer meds if needed. I will walk your dog in your neighborhood or any designated area you prefer, and make sure they have water and/or food that's needed. I will send you pictures so you can see how they're doing during the day
About: I’ve worked for a doggy day care and boarding facility. I also have owned pups my entire life. I love pups and would love to take care of yours! I am available anytime to play with and care for your pups! I can work around any schedule 7 days a week. Whatever is convenient for you just let me know. I have 2 pup friendly fur babies if your pups would like to play with them. If not my pups are well crate trained and I have an extra room if needed for my pups to go into!

About: Taken care of my medium sized dog for ~6 years. I've cat sit for many of my neighbors, cats of various temperaments and health issues. I've also done senior care (mainly memory issues & food check ins), and am an Eagle Scout. Currently unemployed, so I'm quite open to any time for cat or dog care. Within normal day time hours preferred, but no real preference otherwise. I unfortunately cannot take your pet into my home. My dog has not been acclimated enough to other pets enough for comfort. I am more than willing to help in a place they're more comfortable with.

About: I’ve taken care of all animals!! Cats, dogs, lizards, even parrots for neighbors and friends. They even recommended me to their friends and I’ve been dog sitting ever since!

“Fran is great! She cared for our 4 pups with the utmost care and respect. She updated me as soon as she arrived. She sent me photos and gave me behavioral updates. Fran followed our directions for feeding, training and special care for our dogs. Fran also gave me an update as she was leaving to let me know how the visit went. Our dogs seem to really enjoy her company. When I arrived home, I could tell how appreciative our dogs were for Fran’s visit. They were quiet, calm, and acted like they had a fun day while I was at work. Fran is a kind, reliable, and honest animal sitter! Thank you so much, Fran”

About: I’ve had animals all my life and have been caring for dogs and horses for the past 6 years. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently working toward a career in veterinary medicine, so caring for animals isn’t just something I enjoy it’s my passion. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently on summer break from college and working a part-time job, so pet sitting is a great way for me to spend more time doing something I truly enjoy caring for animals. My work schedule is Thursday through Saturday, and I’m available after I get off work on those days. I’m also available on my days off and will do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. I believe in keeping pet parents updated and making sure every pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore, as well as three friendly small dogs who are well-socialized and can provide companionship if your pet enjoys being around other dogs. For drop-in visits, I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I’ll always respect your home, carefully follow your pet’s routine, and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family and provide the attention, patience, and care they deserve.

About: I foster for the Humane society and other rescues. I know animal first aid. Degree in wildlife Biology. I have two dogs of my own, and one cat. I wake up at 7 and feed and walk everyone. After they are done eating we play or cuddle depending on the pets personality. Kittens and puppies eat lunch. If you want your pet to eat three meals please ask. Evening time around 7-8 is Dinner for everyone. Between these times is when there are short walks and play. I don't have a fenced yard yet. I have two dogs at home. One is a senior shih Tzu that only wants to lay around all day. The other is a Bull terrier that is kept outside or in the garage. He gets along with female dogs only so he will be kept away from most pets. I have a cat that loves everyone including dogs. I keep her claws trimmed just in case. If there is a accident I have quick clot and other first aid available.
“I can’t thank Adel enough for taking care of Duke. The pictures of Duke during each visit gave me piece of mind so we could enjoy our trip. I highly recommend Adel and Julia!!!”


“Tanisha is AMAZING!! She made time for a meet and greet on very short notice, and from the first interaction it was clear our dogs were going to be in great hands. She provided exceptional care throughout the day and kept me posted with pictures, which made all the difference when I was out of town. Knowing my fur babies were well cared for and happy gave me the peace of mind every pet parent needs. Highly recommend!”
“Jaymes was awesome! We were in town just for one day and wanted to see the sights…. Franklin may have had a better time than we did!! Thanks for letting us enjoy the day in a new town worry free.”

“Summer took excellent care of our dogs and sent plenty of pictures, videos and a brief summary of each visit. She did things around the house that she didn’t have to do ensuring the well-being of our dogs. Great communication and I’d definitely recommend Summer.”

“Nadia did a great job winning my babies over and making them feel comfortable. My puppy is weary of all strangers but she warmed up to Nadia swiftly and was wagging her tail and excited when she came to let them out the next day.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Arlington is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $42 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 691 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Arlington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.

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.
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 .
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.
