An amazing sitter! My dog is always so happy at the end of the days that he gets to see her, and the photos she sends our way shows he is having the best time.

About: I’ve had animals since I was 10 years old! I’ve had about 4 guinea pigs, and a rabbit too! I have experience as a kennel attendant and just love working with dogs!! I have doggy CPR training and am going to school to be a Veterinarian! I have plenty of cat sitting experience, as many owners i’ve dog sat for have had both! I’m currently a shift lead for a doggy daycare! So my weekday hours are 6:30am-1pm. I’m free anytime after that and weekends too! I’m comfortable with all breeds, big and small! I’m dedicated to giving each little lovebug the care they deserve. I’m comfortable giving meds and often leave a med chart to document date and times given. I listen to instructions and try not to deviate from them!

Katie you were so amazing with my sweet Maisie!! It gave me so much relief to know she was well cared for before she had to be alone for the rest of the night while I was at work. Thank you for being so caring and loving on my girl!!

About: I’ve taken care of my own dog and watched my neighbors dog, making sure they are well fed, get enough time outside and feel loved while their families are away! I’m currently doing odd jobs over the summer and because of this, I am able to spend a lot of time with your pets! I will be out of the house periodically but will not be out longer than 3-4 hours at a time. I keep a clean and pet-friendly environment at home with plenty of space to relax and a backyard to run around and enjoy time outside. My family will also love spending time with your pet and giving them lots of attention!

About: I have years of experience in pet care, particularly with dogs. I have worked in veterinary medicine, doggie daycares, grooming salons, boarding facilities, training facilities, and regional animal shelters. My experience ranges from caring for sweet seniors with diabetes and finicky habits, to training teething puppies just learning to be dogs. I am comfortable and confident working with any breed, sex, age or size and look forward to meeting your pup/pups! As a part time stay at home stepmom with a week on/week off schedule, I’ve built my days around caring for others; both two legged and four legged. On the weeks we have my stepdaughter, my focus is on nurturing, patience, and creating a calm, structured routine. On my off weeks, I have the flexibility and time to dedicate myself fully to pet care. I love being outdoors and active, and pet sitting or dog walking fits naturally into my lifestyle. It allows me to combine my nurturing instincts with my love for animals, making sure every pet I look after gets the same attention, consistency, and affection I give at home. I do not currently offer boarding services at this time. With time that may be subject to change. When caring for pets in their own home, I always do my best to keep them comfortable and maintain their normal routine. I take the time to learn each pet’s habits, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe and secure while their family is away. I carefully follow all instructions left by pet parents and keep open communication with updates, photos, and messages. With over 10 years of experience in veterinary care, doggy daycares, boarding facilities, and shelters, I’m also confident handling special needs or senior pets. I’m trained to administer most medications, including oral meds, fluids, and IM injections, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in capable hands. My goal is to make every pet feel loved and cared for; just like they would be at home with you.

Taylor did a great job watching our pups for around a week! 3 pups multiple visits per day and she was very accommodating to their needs and schedule. Pups were very well taken care of and Taylor went above and beyond to keep them company especially during a storm. We didn’t have to worry about them while we were out of town and it was very reassuring. Taylor was very professional and provided wonderful care for our pups! Frequent updates were provided and the pups were very happy! Would recommend her to anyone that needs their pups watched!

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 10 years and have a lifelong love for animals. As a dog owner myself with two dogs at home, I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your pets the same way you do. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, potty breaks, exercise, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I also know how reassuring it is to receive updates, so I’ll send photos and messages throughout your pet’s stay or visit to give you peace of mind. My goal is to create a fun, safe, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own, and I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I currently do work full time but I do create my own schedule and am pretty flexible so we can work around the hours needed for you and your pet! I do currently have two male dogs who are 8 and 9 years old. They both are very friendly and very playful. They play with puppies and older dogs very well and they’re very diverse with sizes of dogs who they are around. If your dog is aggressive to other male dogs, this won’t be a good fit for you. However, i’m happy to have an introduction to make sure everyone is comfortable. We tend to take a lot of walks and play ball in the yard throughout the day. During the summer we swim in the pop up pool we have for the boys and get the zooms out!

About: I care for my four cats at home and have taken care of dogs for my neighbors and friends. I like giving individual care to every pet I care for and ensuring your daily routines are kept with your pet. I interact, play, and take care of my pets nearly all day. Daily feedings, cleaning, and keeping of general well-being are part of my daily routine. I try to stay consistent with your routine for your pet to create a familiar environment for your furry friend. Whether drop-in care, overnight stays, or walks, I put effort into maintaining the environment that is right for your pet.

About: I have experience sitting dogs and cats ages 6 months - 16 years, including overnight house sitting, walking and playing, and regular feedings! I have trained two of my own dogs from puppies, and am very patient with all animals. I am a full time student at James Madison University, so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends on weekdays and weekends when not in school! I have a flexible schedule at school and am more than able to drop in for quick potty breaks during the school day as well. If there is not fenced in yard, I keep dogs on a leash at all times to ensure safety. I never allow pets to be near human food unless authorized due to allergies and special accommodations. I spend lots of time giving your pets attention, love , and care while their best friends are away!

About: I have three years of professional experience caring for dogs and cats. I worked at a Veterinary Hospital and a kennel where I cleaned kennels and cages, fed the animals, walked the dogs, and played with them. In addition to that I have about a year of experience caring for dogs for friends, neighbors, and family. I currently work part time in the morning around 8-10 and get off around 4-7. I am available to provide pet care before and after work. While caring for your pets, their health and happiness is my priority. It is important to me to make sure they are well taken care of. It is rewarding for me to become acquainted with them like they are my own. I like to play with them and spend as much time with them as needed.

Alyssa is quite honestly one of the BEST dog care professionals I have ever worked with. I chose to use the word professional because she does such an amazing job an is very communicative and makes me feel like my girl is well cared for. She also may be a professional photographer because she sends the best pup pics! She will be my go to dog care person going forward!

Julia is, hands down, an amazing dog sitter. She is so attentive and clearly loves dogs. She wasn’t deterred by my grumpy Great Dane’s barking and she made sure to cuddle my oldest dog while playing fetch & tug with my high energy shepherd. She was punctual, communicative, and sent photos. She even went out of her way to bring my 75 pound Chewy box delivery inside and washed mugs I had left in the sink before I went out of town. My dogs loved her. Can’t recommend her enough.

Erin and Matthew were great! They came just as scheduled, sent pictures each time and I could tell that Toby was happy for companionship and walks with them. There was even a little game of tug of war. Erin and Matthew were very dependable and good with communication. I definitely hope to book these two if I have another need! I certainly recommend them.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Cave Spring on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 629 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Cave Spring. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Cave Spring stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Cave Spring 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 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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.

To find sitters in Cave Spring with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Cave Spring. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
