“Kally was an absolute lifesaver! She was able to accommodate us at the last minute due to a family emergency, and I couldn’t be more grateful. My pup, Charlie, is a 10-month-old, 54-pound ball of energy who gets the zoomies every 20 minutes, and Kally handled him like a pro. Charlie is also anxious around strangers, but he was instantly comfortable with Kally and happy to go out with her. She demonstrated incredible patience, warmth, and understanding, which is exactly what he needs as he continues his training. I know how challenging it can be to manage such a high-energy pup, but Kally made it look effortless. I would absolutely hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Heather was amazing with our dog! He looked like the happiest guy in the photo Heather shared and I know that is a direct result of her awesome care. Heather, I truly appreciate you taking care of our little guy! ❤️”
About: My name is Laryssa and I am new on the sitter side of Rover. I am extremely reliable, caring and would treat your pets like my own while you are away! From experience, I know how hard it can be to leave your pets and will provide updates so you can ensure your fur babies are in good hands! A little about me I am a longtime dog owner and have had my Norwegian Elkhound mix for 10 years. She is now almost 12, I have experienced the puppy years, the energetic years, and all the little changes that come with caring for a dog as they get older. I also have experience with dogs from other family and friends that I would care for while they were away. I also currently have two tabby cats and I grew up with cats my whole life so I would be comfortable with both cats and dogs. I currently work from home full time so my schedule is flexible. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine and I will ensure to follow what is asked of me. I am available for dog walks and drop-in visits around the Leesburg area. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some playtime, food and water, a potty break, or simply someone to keep them company, I will make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I can't wait to meet your pets and become someone you can count on! I currently work from home so I have a flexible schedule and would be willing to work around your needs! I have animals myself so I am used to breaking up my work day. Unfortunately I am unable to board animals with my dog since she gets jealous of me giving attention to someone outside of her. But I am available for drop ins and dog walks! Hoping to board in the future.
“Tammy is fantastic!! There was hiccup with getting in the house on her first day (due to us giving here the wrong code). Thankfully, she was able to get in touch with us to get the right code and graciously made a second trip to the house to take care of our fur babies. I was so thankful and appreciative…she treated our pups like they were her own!!!”
“Jennifer was wonderful with Moose! She was able to walk him last minute and he enjoyed every minute of it. I will definitely be booking with her again. Thanks so much, Jennifer!”
“Logan was wonderful! She was timely. She was amazing with the dogs! And she always gave them a wonderful walk! The dogs really enjoyed spending time with her. She is definitely a gem among dog walkers! I would definitely will be using her again!”
About: I’ve always had dogs in my life. Whether it be mine (Kam, Corky, Nappy) or my kids. I am a caring and compassionate individual and look forward to caring for your baby as my own. I work remote typically Monday to Friday. I am flexible with my work location as long as there is good wifi connectivity for me to use. Thanks. I do not offer in my home service but would be happy to care in your place. I’m not a fan of crating but respect the tough nature of each owners decision.
About: I’ve lived with pets all my life and currently have one indoor cat (spayed, friendly) and one dog (spayed, spends most time outside). I’ve done dog sitting for up to two weeks in the past and cat sitting for up to one month both in my home and at pet owners’ homes. Though I prefer felines as they’re easier to manage, small/medium dogs are certainly welcome — as long as they’re not too vocal. I am a long distance runner and hiker, so no walking distance is too far for me! My arm strength does have a limit, so any dogs over 30 pounds who pull/aren’t fully leash trained are a no-go. Additionally, I’ve done pet sitting for guinea pigs and rabbits for 1-3 day periods! I work part time and do most work from home, so I’m continuously available all week. My home is right next to the W&OD trail, so walks are convenient all times of day and the trail is never crowded. I’m always happy to drive pets to the trail as well. My cat remains entirely indoors, but the dog has endless pits of energy and so spends lots of time outside. We have two fenced areas, one specifically for the dog and another for the pool, along with ~1 acre of unfenced yard.
About: I’m a huge pet lover and have taken care of various types of dogs since I was 15. I’m well experienced in maintaining pet's specific routines such as diets, walks, playtime/interactions, sleep schedules and medications. My goal is always to present a consistent, safe and healthy environment, but also provide a loving and beneficial experience as well for both pets and parents. I am also quite successful in skill training :) I am currently VCU student taking classes Monday through Thursday. I am free in the mornings, midday/ afternoons and anytime after 6 during the week and Friday through Sunday, I am available all hours. I do my best to be considerate when inside a pet owners home to make sure pets don’t feel invaded or unsafe just for the best possible outcome. My place is pretty open and pets are welcome to roam around and/ or be crated if instructed by parents. There is a big open park right next to my building perfect for doggo’s to go on walks.
“Erin is amazing ….professional, on time and so kind to my pet! I have used Erin’s services more than once and will continue to call her first when I need to be away from my pet!”
About: I’ve been around dogs for years and currently care for my own two Chow Chows. I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and structured environment where pets feel comfortable and happy. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I know every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow your instructions and make sure your furry family member receives the care, attention, and affection they deserve. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away by providing dependable, compassionate care and regular updates. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine. I care for my own dogs every day, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. My schedule allows me to plan visits and walks consistently, and I make it a priority to provide reliable, attentive care. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk, or extended care, I’m committed to giving each pet the time and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, safe, and comfortable environment where they can relax and feel at home. I follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I also make sure they always have fresh water and a safe space to rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their home and follow all care instructions closely. I make sure pets are fed on time, receive the exercise and companionship they need, and keep their routines as consistent as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.
About: I grew up around animals all my life. Anything from reptiles to cows and horses. I love them all and treat them like my own. I can be out going and go on long walks or I’m perfectly comfortable having a cuddle buddy inside. Also a pretty good treat giver and belly rubs. I also took a vocational veterinary science class and can recognize illnesses and injuries and treat if able to. Have no issues staying overnight making sure animals get what they need wether it be potty breaks at midnight or just keeping them company. I will treat each animal like they were my own. I’m good at keeping owners in the loop and I will gladly give updates if needed through the day. I work as a PRN in healthcare so I work my schedule around when guest pups are going to be here for a while. My fiance is a great help and well educated on the pups that are in our home as well so if for any reason I’m not home he’s able to keep watch. I have a fully fenced in back yard and a super sweet dog to keep your pup company and to play with throughout the day. I can also crate your pups(s) if needed to help make sure they do not get into anything that they are not supposed when unsupervised.

Shannon took care of my shy dog and helped her enjoy her time away from me. Shannon was easy to work with, and she communicated often. She even helped my Nextdoor neighbor in an emergency. I found Shannon to be reliable, kind, and responsive. I recommend Shannon and look forward to other opportunities to work together.

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.

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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , 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 walker.
