“Melinda was very easy and pleasant to work with from start to finish. We felt very comfortable having our dog in her care which made for a stress-free vacation for us. We could tell from the pictures Melinda took that our girl was happy and and from the notes that she was well cared for. Would happily hire Melinda again.”
About: I am searching for dog walking positions in Leesburg and Ashburn. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is I will connect a strong bond with your pet, make sure they are as comfortable as possible, and I will give your pet exactly what they need. I will make sure they are happy, healthy, safe and having fun. I do have experience in giving medication (orally) if your pet needs it. I have pet sat for both dogs and cats before. I also have had a couple years of dog walking, and I also have a pet of my own. I have worked at a doggy daycare so I have experience with a whole mix of dog breeds of all ages. I am hardworking, efficient, and friendly. I really love dogs and cats and I hope I can be a perfect fit for both you and your pet. I am pretty flexible at the moment! Ideally I can work Monday through Saturday from 7-6pm but I am not available to work on Sundays. I am loving, caring and patient with the animals. I provide fun that comes with being a sitter. I also have a great building trust connection with the animals.
About: Friends have relied on me walk their dogs and dog sit them while they’ve been out of town. Through the time they’ve recommended me to their friends dog sit for them. It takes a lot of love and patience but every second is worth it. With those walks I felt happy to be able to share some time with their pet. Because you don’t only do it because you have to or it’s an obligation, you have to enjoy and connect with their pet so they feel comfortable around me too and they don’t feel like their human is away. I’m currently working a part time job and I am available at any time I may be needed throughout the week and weekend. I make my own schedules. I have a small fenced yard I live in a two story house so they can feel free to be around the house. I currently don’t have any pets so they’re more than welcome to make my couch their own. I also count with cameras around my house.
About: I have loved dogs my whole life, but when I adopted a senior dog in college I truly fell in love and spoiled her with walks, pets, and coordinated outfits! I have dog sat for the numerous dogs in my family as well.

I believe in treating all things with respect especially when it comes to other people’s loved ones and belongings. I work in the medical field and find a lot of joy in taking care of others which extends to animals as well.

About: Hello to every cynophile and ailurophile on here. My name is Carmen and I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California and if you are familiar with people from LA, you know we LOVE ALL animals. I grew up with a big family who loves animals and since I can remember we’ve always had pets at home. Back in LA we have 4 dogs, 1 turtle and now added to that 5 love birds! Anyways, I no longer live there and moved to the east coast with my partner about 2 years ago. Our new home now houses just 2 cats. One of them is a tabby cat who is 6 years old named Blinchik. He is a very outgoing cat that loves everyone and everything. My other cat is named Nala (Siamese/Tabby) and she is quite the opposite from Blinny boy. She loves to keep to herself and takes a while to trust anyone but once she is warmed up you can see her beautiful shy personality. I used to be a nanny which also meant I took care of their pets as well. I have lots experience taking care of other families pets as well as administering medications when needed. Since I’ve been a dog and cat mom, I treat other families pets like they are my own. I’m currently in grad school to become a Speech-Language Pathologist which gives me a lot of extra time to take care of your fur babies 🩷 I’m currently in my graduate program to become a Speech-Language Pathologist. I’m in school Monday-Thursday with only one class a day. That being said, it gives me lots of extra time in the afternoon/evening to fill up with some dog walking, pet sitting, and playing time. My home has a fenced yard so if your fur baby is staying with me, they will have the yard all to themselves to run around and have fun. If I am coming to your home, know that I will respect it and get the job done as well as loving your pet as if they were my own.
About: I am a huge dog lover. I have experience of taking care and playing with all types of dogs. I have fostered over 6 different dogs (all different breeds and puppies) and pet sit for family and friends when I can. Currently I have moved back home and my parents don’t allow pets, so really missing the doggie love. I am currently working from 8am-4pm on weekdays. However, anytime after I am free to play with your fur babies. My weekends are typically free to take your dog out on a hike, playgrounds, or more! I love playing and offering cuddles with your fur baby. I will make sure that they have full bellies and get their exercise outside. And if needed I can tire them out for you with a long walk or run!
“Laura K. is the best! My cats and I are repeat customers, I would not imagine trusting anyone else with my kitties. My cats were happy when I arrived home, their spaces were clean. Laura sent pictures of play and cuddles; she truly is a gem.”
“Rasha took great care of our pets as usual. She’s so responsive and always lets us know how our pets are doing while we’re away. Our dog gets so excited when she sees Rasha, so I know that she gives extra care and attention.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ashburn
Jacob is awesome! He walked Chip and Ellie and made sure to give our cat, Cowboy, attention too. He kept us updated with quick communication throughout the visit and left a detailed review afterward. He has super positive energy and our animals were so excited to meet him during our initial meet & greet. I would absolutely hire Jacob again and highly recommend him.
Kayla B was great with our dogs! She showed up right on time and gave them lots of attention during her drop in's. It was the first time ever leaving them alone overnight and just doing a drop in but it went great!!!! Kayla was great and we will definitely use her again!!!
Sean went above and beyond taking care of our pup. Our girl absolutely LOVES Sean and he deserves 6/5 stars. He provided us plenty of updates to feel at ease while we were away AND was so flexible considering it was a little last minute on our part since our previous plans fell through but that didn’t phase him. Genuinely a great guy. Would absolutely book again.
Sofia was fantastic and patient with our puppy who has a lot of energy. We needed to find someone last minute to come to our house early in the morning and Sofia responded right away, we were able to set up a meet and greet quickly and the day she took care of our puppy went great - our puppy really loves her! We’ve already booked her for more visits. I really appreciate how quickly she got back to me when I had questions and instructions and I highly recommend her!
Excellent dog walker! They arrived right on time, took great care of my dog, and sent adorable pictures during the walk, which gave me peace of mind. I really appreciated the updates and communication. I would definitely recommend them and will happily book again! 🐾

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.
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 Ashburn 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!
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
