“Hilary did an awesome job with our 2 cats! She was on time, fed and medicated them, hung out with them and sent pix! She is by far the best person we've ever had watch our cats. Hilary took care of cleaning the litter and bringing in the mail every day, too. We highly recommend her - she clearly enjoys what she does, and we are super grateful!”
“Jenny was the perfect pet sitter for our three cats! She was kind, patient, and very attentive to their individual needs and seemed to genuinely enjoy spending time with them. She left beautifully written and lengthy updates after each visit and included so many cute photos of all the cats playing, eating, and enjoying her attention. I’m so grateful to have had her looking after our kitties and will definitely be booking with her again 😊💕”
About: I am a responsible and reliable professional. I have learned to use positive reinforcement with my dogs and would enjoy helping with your pet care needs. I am recently retired. I would to schedule walks/visits between 10:00 am and 3:30 pm, but can expand this upon discussion. I am available weekdays in Ashburn and when Loudoun Schools are in session. If I am fortunate to care for your pet, our agreed upon time is my top priority for those days. I can also be flexible in the case additional time is needed. If I am fortunate enough to care for your pet the goal is to keep their routine as close to when you are there. I pay attention to detail and follow instructions for feeding, exercise, and any other routines. I will treat your pet and home respectfully, clean and secure. Throughout our time together I will maintain a watchful eye for any changes in your pets behavior or health, and I keep you updated for peace of mind. This is how I care for our two dogs, Maverick and Penny. I can also incorporate some short positive reinforcement activities. I use this for 5 to 10 minutes daily with my dogs and they thrive in wanting to work for the reinforcement. Your pet(s) will have %100 of my attention.
“Steffany was amazing. She did drop in visits for our two large dogs on a short notice. Was very professional and we didn’t have to worry at all. Thank you Steffany you allowed us to enjoy our trip!”
“Best experience I have had on ROVER for Kona. Esther was VERY professional and responsive and really took care of Kona. Will 100% be my first go to here on out needing drop in visits”
“Super happy with the care provided for my dog and cat during the drop-in visit. Both were well taken care of. I had a last minute trip and June was available to assist. I appreciated the updates and photos, and it gave me real peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Anum quickly became loved by our 4 dogs and 2 cats. She easily remembered all the details of their feeding and schedule. She fed the entire crew and kept them all happy during a long Easter Weekend. Our emotionally needy GSP and barky Aussie became good friends with Anum. Even our very shy dog came out of her shell !”
“Kayla is always on time and communicates so well. Our dog, Cooper, is not used to being home without us but Kayla has done an excellent job gaining his trust and taking great care of him.”
“Sanja was wonderful and took great care of my cats. They mostly hid, but they were happy when we got home. I highly recommend Sanja. She is very loving and professional.”
About: Hey! Thanks for taking the time to get to know me. I am a lifelong dog lover, having owned small medium and large breeds since childhood and throughout my life. From Dachshunds, to Dalmatians, to Great Danes and Rhodesians, I have vast experience with all dog sizes and strengths; As well as the psychology and temperament that accompanies each breed, and the necessary handling and demeanor. The time spent as a Veterinary technicians assistant in college means I'm also familiar with some basic dog first aid (doggy first aid kit with me), as well as know what to look for and asist in order to make sure each breed is comfortable (ex. larger and or longer breeds may have hip dysplasia or other difficulties). Having spent every summer on a large farm with over 10 dogs, I not only seem to have a second sense for dog behavior, but understand their psychology in a group situation, the hierarchy involved, as well as the need for a sense of security and comfort. I am the one my friends call to come help train their dogs, or even accompany them on a hike in case some first aid is necessary. Moreover three of my close friends are veterinary doctors, whom I speak with daily, and are a great source for any information needed. I have extensive experience with both young puppies, and older dogs who may or may not have some incontinence or other medical issues. I am very familiar with dogs with special needs, as my own previous dog was partially paralyzed, and required medication. At the end of the day, I just love dogs and want them to be as happy and healthy as possible, including cooking custom meals :) I work remotely and at my own pace, so dogs always come first. There is a well groomed dog park across the street that we can go to at any moments notice. I have a dog proofed home, with a very friendly and submissive doggy to keep yours company. I have a ring doorbell camera that monitors the only entrance/exit; There is a very nice fenced dog park across the street with a dog agility course. There are pleanty of dog toys, chews and treats. The dogs are welcome on all the furniture, with a dedicated TV playing doggyTV in the background.
“Morris did a great job looking after our two dogs. He was dependable and made sure to give them the time they needed at each visit. We will definitely use him again in the future. I highly recommend him!”
About: I have 1 year of hands-on pet care experience, working with non-profit organizations, adoption agencies, and volunteering in animal centers. I’ve cared for pets of all sizes and temperaments, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and attention. My experience includes walking, feeding, basic training reinforcement, and providing a safe, loving environment where pets feel at home. On weekends, my days are centered around the pets I care for. I start mornings with fresh walks or playtime at the nearby dog park to help them burn off energy and start the day happy. Throughout the day, I schedule regular potty breaks, cuddle sessions, and playtime to keep them engaged and comfortable. Because I live near several beautiful parks and trails, I love incorporating longer walks or outdoor adventures into their routine. Evenings are all about winding down with calm activities, belly rubs, and making sure they feel safe and relaxed before bedtime. Your pet becomes my priority for the time they’re with me — I treat them like family while sticking closely to the routines you’ve set for them at home. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I follow their routines closely to keep them happy and comfortable. I provide regular walks, feeding, play, and lots of affection, along with photo updates so you know they’re doing great. My goal is to treat every pet like family, giving them the love, care, and attention they deserve while you’re away. I also have a gentle, pet-loving 6-year-old who enjoys spending time with animals, giving them even more love and attention.
About: My name is Hoslan and I’ve been dog sitting/walking for almost 2 years. I have 4 of my own dogs and love them like they my own kids, when it comes to meet dogs they just love me, they’ll bark at first because they don’t know me but after showing them I’m friendly and give them love I’ll be your best dog sitter and everytime they see me theyll be excited! I work from home, and I just be on my computer in the mornings, but after I’m done I have so much time to walk dogs, play with them, take them out to potty or anything! I have a fenced in yard, I live close by a park, and I have 4 friendly pups that will play with your pup, here in my household we all love dogs so they’ll get treated like they one of ours
“Kelsey is amazing. She visited Sampson (my cat) at a consistent time every day, every though it was never specified, and I could tell by the pictures that he loved seeing her. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ashburn
Sofia was great!! There was a mixup with addresses in the system and she did not hesitate to turn around and go to the right address, which was 15 minutes the opposite way that she went. She made sure my pup went out, got his meds, and was back happy inside. Definitely recommend her!
Jenny was the perfect pet sitter for our three cats! She was kind, patient, and very attentive to their individual needs and seemed to genuinely enjoy spending time with them. She left beautifully written and lengthy updates after each visit and included so many cute photos of all the cats playing, eating, and enjoying her attention. I’m so grateful to have had her looking after our kitties and will definitely be booking with her again 😊💕
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.
Kelsey is the most amazing cat sitter we've ever gotten. She was prompt in her daily updates with pictures and a message of how it went. She is thoughtful, cared for our cat as if he was her own, and assessed how he was feeling every visit which allowed her to gage what she needed to provide (extra play time, a treat, etc). We are definitely going to hit up Kelsey again and are grateful for everything she has done while we were away!!
Kayla was exceptional in her care and attention to our two cats in our absence. Our cats immediately warmed to her. She shared updates and photos after every visit. Her care has made us realize that we are able to travel when necessary and have peace of mind that the cats will be well!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Ashburn is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $7 and $28 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 November 2026, there are 15,369 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ashburn. 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 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.

- 93% 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.
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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
