Asal was a fantastic sitter for my pets. You can tell she knows how to take care of cats because she does a thorough job of cleaning the litter boxes (cat parents know what I’m talking about!). She went the extra mile and cleaned up extra messes when she didn’t have to. Will be booking her services again!

About: Hi! I’m Narsing, an experienced and dependable pet caregiver with 5+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and active while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has its own routine and personality, so I take time to learn their habits, energy level, feeding schedule, and comfort needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, calm companionship, or extra patience and attention, I adapt to what makes them happiest. I’m reliable, punctual, patient, and attentive to details. I can help with: • Daily walks • Feeding & fresh water • Playtime & companionship • Photo and video updates for peace of mind I’m excited to meet your furry family member and provide loving, trustworthy care! I have a very flexible schedule and am available anytime — mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’m happy to accommodate last-minute requests whenever you need. Safety is always my top priority. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel cared for, happy and stress-free while you’re away

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I currently have cats, a dog, and a lizard! I have experience pet sitting for family and neighbors. I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I am flexible and can hang out with your pets as much as you would like. I am open to late nights or early mornings as well. I believe that pets are the most comfortable in their own homes. It’s better to come to them so they can stay where they know, rather than having to get comfortable in a new place.

About: I have always had a love for animals, with dogs especially having a special place in my heart. I currently have two rescue babies, Daisy & Pepe, who I have been caring for the last 8+ years. I understand that your fur-babies are your children, and deserve all the love and care in the world! Feel assured that your pet gets treated like my own and receives the necessary care while you are away. Driven by empathy, I know that everyone has a specific way of caring for their loved ones. I am open to any and all conversations on how to best satisfy your care needs and provide the best service possible! Fast and active replier. Currently finding myself with a lot of extra time, therefore am open to caring for your pet at any time of the day! Animals require consistency and daily routines to feel at ease, therefore I am happy to discuss and create arrangements that best fit the needs of your pet and your schedule! I typically take my dogs for 2 long walks and multiple short walks (5+) throughout the day. I am also all about routines and time management, so be assured that your pets will get consistent care throughout the day as specified/agreed! No dog or pet is the same, so let’s work together to create a plan that works best for them. Looking to fill my schedule with consistent daily/weekly walks/check-ins Living in an apartment complex, I am no stranger to watching my neighbors pets both at their residence and at my own. I offer staying with your pet (at your residence) until the late night to quickly stopping by for a quick potty break. If you have any special requests/accommodations needed, I am happy to discuss and work something out!

Cecily is an outstanding cat sitter, and I highly recommend her. This was my first time leaving my extremely social cat alone while traveling out of town, and I was anxious about her getting the attention she needs. Cecily exceeded all expectations! She regularly sent me pictures of my cat looking super happy and engaged. She made sure to play with her, give her treats, and even cuddle. Knowing my cat was so well taken care of allowed me to be much more relaxed during my trip.

About: I took care of my black lab for 8 years, including feeding, giving medications, bathing and walking. I raised my cat from 6 weeks forward, cleaning litter boxes, feeding, giving attention to/playing with, and giving any medicines needed. I currently have a 4 and 5 year old cat. I also regularly volunteered at the cat Cafe in Murfreesboro, TN before I relocated to the area. There I was responsible for playing with the cats, feeding them and cleaning litter boxes. I have worked at an animal hospital where I have gained knowledge about medical situations and some medication giving. I am also a professional toy fixer! I am currently in between jobs so I do have mostly open availability until this changes or if I have to block some time off for an interview. I am willing to stay as long as needed to keep your furbabies happy and make sure they are fully taken care of. Being sure to leave your home exactly how it was when I arrived.

About: Growing up, I was always the kid that would ask every person I passed walking their dog down the street if I could pet their dog. I have been an animal lover since I was young. My family got my first dog when I was four years old. She was a Black Lab-Weimaraner mix named Colby. Our newest addition to the family is Brenner, she is a five year old Pitbull-Hound mix full of energy. We got Brenner when she was 8 weeks old, so I had the wonderful joy of seeing her grow up and help raise her. Given my experience of growing up with these dogs, I am well equipped in taking care of any dog breed, no matter the size, big or small. In addition to taking care of my own animals, I have dog walked for friends and family on numerous occasions. I work full-time 8AM-5PM, Monday-Friday. I am available early mornings at 6-7AM and evenings 6PM and beyond during this workweek. I have all day availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I am able to take your dog for short/long walks and play with/feed them once in the morning and once in evening in their own environment at your house.

Jacob was professional, kind, and excellent with our two large dogs. He clearly cares for animals, and our doggos instantly loved him. I would not hesitate to have Jacob look after our dogs again, and neither should you!

If you're looking for someone who is patient, knowledgeable, and truly cares about your dog, I can't recommend Esther enough! We have a German Shepherd who can be reactive, and Esther went above and beyond to make sure she felt safe and comfortable. She even offered meet-and-greets before our scheduled vacation, which gave both us and our dog the chance to get to know her and build trust. Our dog absolutely adores Esther, and it was clear from the start that she was in great hands. During our trip, Esther sent regular updates with photos and detailed summaries of each visit, which gave us so much peace of mind. Knowing our dog was happy and well cared for made it so much easier to relax while we were away. This was our first Rover experience, and it exceeded all of our expectations. We will definitely be booking with Esther again and highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with reactive dogs!

Even though she came in for a simple drop in visit as I was out of the house the whole day, she still did a phenomenal job with feeding the animals, administering my cats specific medication, and walking my dog around the neighborhood! I also have a pet toad in which she helped feed him as well:) All in all, i recommend booking her for your pets!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Dulles on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 15,073 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Dulles. 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 Dulles 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 Dulles 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 Dulles 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 Dulles. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 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.
