About: I’m a warm, friendly, and dependable pet sitter who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was young, and friends, family, and neighbors regularly trust me with their pets. I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for—whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just extra attention and cuddles. I have open availability during the summer (June 13–August 10), which allows me to provide flexible visits, walks, and plenty of attention for your pets throughout the day. During the rest of the year, I’m available before 7:30 AM and after 3:30 PM on weekdays, with additional flexibility on weekends. I’m reliable and committed to making sure your pet gets consistent care, exercise, and love. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fenced yard and two friendly, well-socialized dogs who love having company. I always supervise interactions and make sure every pet feels safe and at ease. I treat every pet like my own and create a calm, loving environment while you’re away.
“Our pet Buddy takes time to meet new people. But when Buddy met Carl for the first time, he sniffed Carl and instantly connected with him and enjoyed Carl’s company. The next time we are in need of a pet sitter, we will definitely call Carl again.”
“Jennifer is so good with my dog, who is not easy, and she’s incredibly reliable and dependable. She has never missed a day, and if she’s going to be even a little late, she always communicates that to make sure I’m aware. She clearly loves dogs, and it shows in how she takes care of them. One of the other great things is that she will do things like bring in packages, roll my garbage can up, and little things like that that I’ve never even asked her to do, but it shows how thoughtful and conscientious she does that she just takes care of them. Absolutely the best care I’ve ever had for any pet”
“This was our first time with Rover, and Luca loved Skyler from the minute he met him at our meet-and-greet! Skyler is a natural with him and comes fully prepared to best take care of your pup! Couldn't be more pleased.”
“Asher provided consistent updates and reached out with questions to ensure my cat was well taken care of. It was very comforting while I was traveling internationally for 10 days. I would absolutely love to book again with Asher in the future.”
About: Aside from having two cats of my own, I have fostered over 10 different cats and been a trusted dog sitter for family and friends. My experience caring for multiple animals is what I believe makes me qualified to take good care of your furry friend! I am currently home for winter break from college and since I have a lot of free time, I would love to be able to put that towards taking care of animals. I am very available during the day for pet visits, etc. I also am generally available during the night as well! Considering my cats are very curious, I have developed the good habit of remaining aware of surroundings, things that they may be able to eat, unsafe items, and keeping doors closed. I also have had experience with many different animals allowing me to adjust well to each pets needs!
“Keila did such a wonderful job with our 95 lb jumpy/excited boxer the first time she watched him, we immediately booked her again for our next longer trip (10 days!) and am so glad we did. We felt really comfortable with her already, but every visit she did she sent photos and typically added funny notes and that made it even better. She spent a lot of time with him for drop ins and clearly gave him plenty of exercise. We will reach out to Keila and pray she’s available for all our future needs! Highly recommend.”
“Christine came through for us with very short notice. Loved on our boys and took them for a walk. She is detailed oriented and asked a lot of questions when arriving at our home. I appreciated this as this was the first time we worked with her or that she had met our dogs. Thanks Christine!”
“Kelly came to the rescue to checkin on our 2 pups with short notice, and they just love her! She's very communicative and so thoughtful to make sure each dog gets lots of attention.”
“Erin has been our go to cat sitter since we moved to the area. Erin is consistently caring and detail oriented. We travel with ease knowing our kitties are loved and cared for by Erin. Thank you Erin for everything you do.”
About: Hello! I am a student at the University of South Wales doing my bachelor's in Wildlife Ecology Conservation. Im looking for petsitting/dog walking work while Im here through september. Im an aspiring veterinarian and have cared for anything domestic like dogs, cats, birds, or rabbits and exotics like hedgehogs, lions, and elephants. Please let me know if you need any animal care this summer! Im affordable and flexible ❤️🐶🐘 Im currently on school break and taking summer online classes. I love high energy dogs to join me on local hikes and long walks or low energy dogs to keep me company on the couch or while I work on my online classes. Im flexible! How I manage your pet depends on their personality. If theyre a cuddle bug theyll be right there with me all the time, but if they prefer their own space I'll keep them company from the other room
“Brianna was very attentive to the needs of my pet, and I am quite pleased that I have chosen her. I will be definitely using her service in the future, and highly recommend her.”
“Paige is so wonderful with our cats and we are lucky to have her take care of them. She's conscientious and sends such adorable pictures of them. I highly recommend her if you need a pet sitter.”
“Shauna was fantastic! She really set my mind at ease when taking care of Stella while I was away. She was always very prompt and caring. She even took the time to wash out her food bowls so I appreciated that also. I will definitely be asking her if she can pet sit again in the future!”
“Nicole is my go-to cat sitter for my 18 year old cat, Harlow. She's become much more than a sitter, as she knows so much about cats and has provided me with many useful cat related tips about diet and overall cat health. Your pets are in GREAT hands with Nicole.”
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life, and dog-sat and cared for many different dogs over the years. I will treat your pup like family. They will feel secure and safe and get a lot of attention and affection. I work from home full time and have a very flexible schedule between 8-5. In addition to a great walk, your fur-baby gets cuddles, play time, and loads of love. Your dog will never be left unattended or alone in a yard. In my house, your dog can sleep in the bed if they like (and you OK it). My own dog is a 9 year old trained therapy dog. She is calm, sweet, and gets along with all dogs both big and small, chill or playful. She'll be happy to share her home. I use positive reinforcement only.
“Ben did amazing with Cleo and Alfie. They are both high energy and Ben figured out how to connect with them immediately. He was great about providing updates and sent pictures of both of them on walks. The very next day Alfie looked very excitedly at his harness to go for another walk. I would highly recommend!”

Ashley was fantastic with my kitty! I really appreciate her last minute availability, flexibility, and her responsiveness. She really went the extra mile to make sure that my entitled kitty did not feel too lonely while we were out of town! Great service and definitely recommend Ashley to others looking for a sitter!
Nalleli was wonderful! She accommodated my last-minute holiday weekend request and took great care of my three cats. She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures during the visit, and gave me peace of mind my cats were in good hands. I will definitely book with her again!
Jennifer was wonderful with our cat Meep - he loved her and you could tell from her photos how excited he was to spend time with her every day! We were grateful for her thoughtful updates and hilarious pictures and memories were so glad knowing Meep was in such caring hands!
Colleen did a great job sitting for my two cats while one of them was sick. She gave me helpful updates, sent nice pictures and was also able to administer medicine. I felt really at ease after the first visit seeing how she was updating me, would definitely recommend her!
Caroline was amazing with our 3 kitties. She took great care of them, kept us updated and sent the cutest pictures. We have one male cat who can be a little tricky, but he took a liking to her very quickly and she knew how to handle him. She gave us peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Dranesville on Rover is $26.64 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 Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 7,474 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Dranesville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dranesville. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% 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.
