“Sylvia has watched my cats 3 times now and does an amazing job. Trips are more enjoyable knowing that my fur children are well cared for. I always look forward to the updates and pictures from each visit. I highly recommend Sylvia!”
“You will not regret booking with Elizabeth, she loves your animals like her own and provides the best care for them. She is communicative, punctual, dependable and kind. We couldn't have found a better person to care for our Moose while we were away, I think Moose might be upset that we are coming home lol!”
About: Free Trial SleepOver at Lilibet's Place! Let’s first make sure our pups are compatible before booking a Pawsome Adventure! Request a Practice SleepOver at Lilibet’s Place for a convenient day; I’ll modify the current rate through the Rover app to be No Charge! Then book at least Seven Sleeps and know that your pup is in Good Hands and Good Paws! My pup Lilibet, named after Queen Elizabeth, is a six year old rescued Beagle Mix coming in at under 25 pounds and we are excited for our new adventure on Rover. Lilibet is not my first pup; I have over thirty years caring for dogs. SleepOvers at Lilibet’s Place is designed for pet owners vacationing without their pups. I know how difficult it can be to find appropriate pup care while planning your own getaway. Please allow SleepOvers at Lilibet’s Place to be your pups getaway with a buddy to play with during the day and two adults to love all over in the evening and weekends. We are minutes away from the Gypsy Hill Dog Park in Staunton, VA and a short Road Trip to Coyner Springs Park in Lyndhurst, VA with a Leash-Free Dog Park. There is a huge difference between a Medium Dog and a Large Dog! I am happy to entertain hosting your Large Pup if the connection is right. Lilibet enjoys playing with dogs over 40 pounds like an English Shepherd but a Doberman Pinscher coming in at 90 pounds might be a bit much for our setup. In determining if we are a good fit for your pups vacation, please keep in mind that: • I do not have any children in my home • We work outside the home and can monitor our pups using our Lilibet Cam • I am comfortable administering oral or subcutaneous injections • Lilibet is a client of Staunton Vet Clinic in town and we are ten minutes away from the Veterinary Emergency Services in Verona, VA SleepOvers at Lilibet’s Place is intended to be a minimum of one week that begins on a Friday in order for our pups to become comfortable with each other. A prior Meet & Greet is required before confirming a reservation. This can be done in person near, but not in, the Gypsy Hill Dog Park; a Virtual Visit can initiate the Meet & Greet but we'll want to meet you and your pup in person. Your dog must be house broken as I work outside the home during the day. During holiday breaks I will make an exception to my “only one sitting assignment” policy to accommodate more Pet Parents if necessary! Outside of the holiday season, I will only take in one sitting assignment at a time. Lilibet has the run of the house while we are at work; she and your fur buddy are welcomed to lounge on the sofas, beds, or dog bed we provide. If your pup has their own home comforts they are welcome to pack an overnight bag for their stay to include favorite toys, treats, beds, and smells from home. During your pups vacation with SleepOvers at Lilibet's Place, you can select from one of Five Excursions during their stay to include: • A trip to Wright's Dairy-Rite, a local landmark for an adventure with a Pup Cup at their historic Curb Service. • An adventure to run free on the farm with other pups and cats while meeting the horses. • Gypsy Hill Dog Park is right around the corner in Staunton; your pup and Lilibet can meet neighborhood friends while under the watchful eye of their chaperone. • Does you fur baby enjoy the local watering hole? Lilibet and I have access to local rivers to enjoy a splash around. • We are also happy to customize an adventure to meet your pup's needs.
“Tamera is an amazing dog sitter. She was so attentive and sent pictures of her time with our dog. We’ve had a lot of dog sitters and she is one of the best we’ve ever had and on the plus side our dog loves her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 756 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Avis. 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Avis. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
