About: Ive been taking care of dogs all my life, i have experience administering oral medication, feeding pets on specific schedules, bathing pets, taking large and small dogs on walks, and I have experience finding vets and getting pets there quick in case of emergency! I have a very flexible schedule! The only days I am not free on are mondays and Wednesdays for school. I can help with daily tasks like walking or feeding the animal! I give pets constant attention and care! I've grown up with very clingy puppies, so I'm used to giving animals all my attention! I'm also used to following specific schedules for the animal! (i.e. food, walking, bathroom)

About: I have been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m a compassionate and attentive caretaker who truly understands that every dog has its own personality and needs. Whether it’s making sure they’re fed, walked, played with, or just comforted, I treat every dog as if they were my own. My lifelong experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to build trust with animals, which is why I know I’d be a great fit for any role involving dog care! i promise your dogs will love our fenced in dog area and have lots of fun! I am currently not working, and I have always wanted to work with animals! Dog sitting allows me to watch my own dog while also taking care of other people’s dogs and making a living for myself! we have a fenced in dog area and lots of room to run and play! I don’t allow any squeak toys in my house in case of choking hazards! And I have crates if you can’t bring your own if your dog is crate trained!

About: Hi, my name is Lisa and I'm an animal lover (especially dogs)! I have had the privilege of giving quality pet care to many pets over the years. The families were very happy with the care their pets received. In addition, I am a stay at home mom of 2 children (ages 17 and 19) who would be able to lavish limitless love and attention on your pet! Your pet would be well taken care of and would have a great time romping around in our spacious fenced in play area! It would be wonderful to have the opportunity to care for your fur baby!! Hope to hear from you soon! I am a full-time stay at home mom. So, I have plenty of time to give lots of love and attention to your fur babies!! The safety of your fur babies is of the utmost importance to me. I have a fenced in yard that they will enjoy playing. In addition, I am extremely careful to provide a safe environment indoors as well. I am available during the week and on weekends. I am a stay at home mom. So, aside from running errands and taking the kids to different functions I am at home a majority of the time. All guests are fed, taken out for potty/playtime, and boarded inside. They are given plenty of love and attention as well. We treat all of our guests like family!

About: I am currently in Vet Medicine, with experience from volunteering in animals shelters & participating in a clinic internship. I myself have 5 dogs ranging from 8months to 12 years old and interact with animals daily. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. Im currently in a veterinary program and completing an internship at Mount Pleasant Clinic, while also caring for my five dogs at home. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule. Im available for dog walking and check-ins in the late afternoon and anytime on weekends. These interactions and acts of care is a great way for me to continue to gain hands on experience while providing pets with the attention, care, and love they deserve! I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe and on their normal routine as instructed. I will provide plenty of attention and care. I have no issue with following specific care instructions and paying attention to any changes of behavior or overall condition. On walks I prioritize safety & stay aware all while making sure your pet enjoys themselves!

“Lauren took care of my sweet Bailey like she was her own. From the moment they met, Bailey was completely smitten, and I can’t blame her. Lauren has this calm, loving energy that dogs (and people) instantly trust. She made sure Bailey was happy, safe, and spoiled with attention, and I never once had to worry. She’s attentive, patient, and somehow knows exactly what a dog needs before they even ask for it. I swear Bailey was happier than ever when I came back from work... probably because she spent her days with someone who truly loves the animals she cares for.”

About: I’ve cared for neighbors’ and coworkers’ dogs on and off for about 7 years. I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, including seniors. I currently have a 16 year old Dachshund, so I understand the extra patience and care older dogs may need. I treat every pet like family and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I work 7-4 at Langley Air Force base so depending on how far it is from base I could stop by during lunch but if not I can stop by during the week before 7 and after 3:30 pm. During the weekends and holidays, I should be free whenever to care for your pet! I live in a comfortable apartment with an enclosed patio where pets can get some fresh air and relax. I’m also happy to take them on regular walks and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout their stay. I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and currently have two cats of my own & previously owned a medium sized dog. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets while you’re away. I’m comfortable with feeding, playtime, walks, litter box care, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! I work mornings and am typically off by noon, so I have plenty of availability for pet care in the afternoons and evenings. I occasionally have afternoon appointments, but my schedule is flexible and I’ll always communicate my availability in advance. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of your home, and I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of care, attention, and love while you’re away.

About: I've loved dogs my entire life and have grown up with them since I was a toddler. Since December 2024, I've worked at Pawscienda in Montpelier, VA, where I've been trained as a Lead Kennel Technician. In that role, I care for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and even the occasional bunny! My experience includes feeding, administering medications, monitoring behavior and health, maintaining clean and safe environments, and providing plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. I also have a one year old, fully trained puppy of my own, which has given me even more hands-on experience with training, patience, and understanding a dog's individual needs. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs special medical care, I'll make sure they receive the same attention and care I'd want for my own. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. My classes are Mondays and Wednesdays from 11:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., and Fridays from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Outside of class, I'm available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I'm happy to work with owners to find times that fit both of our schedules. I will also be available some weekends and can accommodate morning, evening, or overnight care if necessary. No matter what, i'll always make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while you're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. At this time, I only offer care in my clients' homes, allowing pets to stay in the environment they're most familiar with and comfortable in. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I'll follow your instructions carefully. From feeding schedules and walks to medications and any special care they may need. I will treat your home with the same respect and care that I would my own, keeping it clean, secure, and exactly as you left it. I'll also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for every step of the way.

DeHaven and Ashlee are Wonderful!!🤩 This was the first time I have left my kiddos with someone other than family. Naturally, I was a little anxious at the thought of arranging it, but that quickly changed once I met them. They took the time to do a meet and greet, and I was instantly confident in my choice and felt totally at peace. They are great with communicating, wonderful with animals (to include the outdoor feathered ones), went above and beyond and even sent pics to us while we were gone!! I just can’t say enough great things about them and the whole experience!! Will definitely use them again!! Thank you Ashlee!!😊

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Benns Church

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
