“Natalia was so sweet, kind, and attentive with our girls. She shared photos and kept us updated the entire time and we are so lucky we found her to petsit our pups. We would definitely recommend her and plan to use her services again in the future.”
“Asal took great care of my kitty!! She sent me very detailed updates every day, putting me at ease while I was out of town. I could tell my cat loved her time with Asal, we will definitely be booking again! :)”
“Clay arrived on time, has a friendly demeanor, and was in tune to Abner’s needs. This was a trial run to see Abner’s willingness to walk with him. Due to the pandemic, Abner is not as adaptable to new people as before since someone is usually with him as I work from home. They came back pretty quickly from the walk so I accompanied them to allow Abner to be more comfortable with Clay. We had a nice walk and Abner seems to be warming up to him. After the walk, Clay paid close attention to the post-walk routine of wiping Abner’s paws and private areas by the door. I quickly booked Clay again for next week and I highly recommend him.”
“Caroline was very communicative and kind when taking care of my cat last minute. She provided photos, was on time, and easily accommodated my schedule for key handoff. I will absolutely book with Caroline again :)”
“Ally is great - super communicative and clearly took great care of the pup. She filled up puzzle treats every visit (a must for getting puppy to eat) and was prompt and present for every walk. My old girl has some specific health concerns and Ally was great with medication schedules and sharing out observations. Over and above - we love Ally!”

“Abigail took great care of Cinders and Pepper whole their owners were away for the weekend. She followed all care instructions, gave them their medications, and spent a good deal of time with them so they didn't get lonely. We'll definitely think of Abigail again for next time!”
About: I love dogs but not enough to steal yours because I have high morals. Does your dog have a lot of energy? Do they need to be outside and exercise? I will take them for a run, to play fetch, tug of war! Or if it’s an older dog than maybe an easy stroll around the neighborhood and back home for a nap. Each dog is different and will be treated as the best good boy (or girl). I have dog sit for friends and family in the past with no issues. So just know if you go with me your lovely pup will be cared for. I am seeking dogs to bring some joy into my life and hope that you will choose me!
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 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.

We’re both reliable, respectful, and will make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in our care. We’re also happy to send plenty of pictures and updates! 🐾 I have a fenced in backyard along with a crate, although I would prefer not housing at my house because of other pets living there.
“Laryssa was amazing! We had a last minute change to our care in that one of our cats needed medication. Without hesitation she had no problem giving it to our cat. We also had an issue with one of our cats feeders. Laryssa had a solution that completely worked and took care of the situation easily. I have never felt so at ease leaving my cats with someone. Will definitely be using her again!”

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!

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.
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.

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 .
