“Nikki was great! She was able to stop by fairly last minute to let our dog out for a short walk. She was also kind enough to come over for a short meet-and-greet beforehand so that our dog would be familiar with her. If another time comes where we need a drop-in sitter, we’ll absolutely be using Nikki again!”
About: With over 20 years of hands-on pet care experience, I provide compassionate, knowledgeable care tailored to each pet's unique needs. My experience includes everything from training and caring for energetic puppies to providing gentle support for senior pets and attentive care for animals with medical needs or illnesses. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. Whether your pet needs playtime, patience, medication, or extra TLC, you can count on me to provide dependable, experienced care that gives you peace of mind. I currently work 12 hour shifts at the hospital from 7am to 7pm only 3 days a week. These days are typically Sunday-Tuesday as I make my own schedule. With having four days off, I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I can board any time during the week, especially with my weekends being open. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your furry family member can feel at ease. My apartment community features a secure dog park, plenty of sidewalks for daily walks, and beautiful natural areas for safe exploration and exercise. Whether your dog enjoys playtime or leisurely walks, they'll have plenty of opportunities to stay active. I also have a friendly, well-socialized cat who has been around dogs for most of his life and is comfortable sharing his space with respectful canine guests. I always introduce pets thoughtfully and monitor interactions to help ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect your pet's established routine and environment. I'll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special requests, so your pet receives consistent, loving care while you're away.
“Nouf took great care of my senior dog and cat. She gave me peace of mind while my boyfriend and I were away. My cat ran out the door (because she’s crazy!) and she was able to quickly catch her and bring her back inside safely. Reliable, responsible, responsive, and gave detailed updates + lots of pictures! I would recommend her if you are looking for someone who can handle your furbabies!”


About: After growing up with a minimum of three dogs in my family I have come to realize that dogs are one of the greatest joys in life! I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years and I have a 7 year old pup of my own named Rocket! Prior to Rocket I had a pup named Bender for 16 years before he crossed the rainbow bridge. I love all animals but dogs really do make the world a brighter, sweeter and more cuddly place. I’m comfortable with dogs from puppy age to senior though I do generally refer to all dogs as puppies! I’m currently working part time and have availability on the mornings and afternoons, Monday through Friday and can be available on weekends if needed. My roommate and I both have dogs so catering for pets in our home is not an option but I am able to house sit overnight in the client’s home.

About: With over 5 years of hands-on pet sitting experience, I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’ve worked with dogs, cats, and small animals of all temperaments, and I’m especially comfortable with both energetic young pets and seniors who need extra patience and gentle handling. I have experience with basic training reinforcement for puppies (such as crate training, leash manners, and routines) as well as administering medications and monitoring health for older pets. What sets me apart is my focus on consistency, safety, and clear communication—I make sure pets feel secure in their routine while keeping owners updated with regular messages and photos. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to provide consistent and attentive care. I have a flexible schedule that lets me accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as overnight stays when needed. I plan my day around the pets in my care to ensure they receive timely walks, feedings, playtime, and companionship. Whether it’s a regular weekly schedule or last-minute requests, I do my best to be dependable and available, including weekends and holidays when many owners need extra support. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every home I work in. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines closely—feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and house rules—so pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar space. I keep a clean environment, secure doors and gates, and stay alert to any changes in behavior or health. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, pet-friendly space with plenty of supervision, playtime, and a quiet area for rest. I make sure all pets are introduced carefully (if applicable), and I never leave them unattended for long periods. I also maintain clear communication with owners, providing regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Ashley has been so good to Dozer. She is his weekly companion for lunch time walks. She is quick to respond and communicates when she has a scheduling conflict. We have enjoyed Dozer's pics for every walk. Thank you Ashley!”

“Amy did an amazing job with our two kitties! She sent us wonderful updates and we could see how happy our boys were in all the photos. She gave us great peace of mind; excellent communication, professional, and very thoughtful care for our pets. We would recommend her to anyone.”

About: I have cared for animals for most of my life and have extensive experience providing attentive, compassionate care for pets of all ages and needs. Most recently, I raised a Carolina Dog named Jake, who passed away. I am comfortable with feeding, walking, exercising, administering basic care, and ensuring animals feel safe and well cared for while their owners are away. I am dependable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I am also available to provide service weekends and holidays as needed. I'm generally available, as I currently work from home. Care instructions will be passed on customer needs and requests. You pet would have company during the day, in a safe, clean environment. I live in Dulles Station in Herndon, adjacent to a dog park and walking trails. There is also plenty of room to walk in and around my immediate neighborhood.
About: I grew up with pets in my household, so I absolutely adore animals and have been taking care of them since I was a child. Additionally, for the last several years, I have taken care of my friends and neighbors pets. I work full-time; my schedule can vary slightly, but typically I work 7:30-3:30 Monday-Friday in McLean. I am available after those times, on the weekends, and over holidays! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special care instructions so they feel secure and well cared for. I provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while maintaining a calm, clean, and safe environment. I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care that I would give my own.
About: Hi my name is Mackenzie, I would love to provide your fur baby with a comfortable, loving stay. I have one pitbull mix and 3 cats of my own. I have never met a pet that I haven’t gotten along with! I’ve grown up with pets in my home my whole life. I also used to have (he crossed the rainbow bridge) a paralyzed dachshund. I have experience with high energy dogs, strong dogs, temperamental cats - dogs and cats big and small. I understand what it’s like to have someone take care of of your babies, so I am very responsive and would be happy to send you pictures and updates. My dog, Monty loves to play, but also has awareness to know when a dog doesn’t want to interact. I’ve pet sat for tons of family and friends in the past, so I’d be thrilled to add your pet(s) to that list. I work remotely and have a full-time job. Most of my meetings are pre-planned so I have a good sense of my day and when walks can happen. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide love throughout the whole day. I have a small fenced in patio area that has a patch of soil and 2 fake grass pee mats for any urgent potty needs. I will always supervise outside while they are outside. I live in a town home, so I can easily separate my pets from yours if need be, but all of my pets are very friendly. I’m very thorough and take notes to make sure I get your fur baby’s needs exactly as they need them.
“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.”

“I think Charlize has a new best friend, because she wasn’t as excited to see me after a week away with Asal dropping in! Asal is a real pro and gave me peace of mind while I was away for the holidays, with her very thorough updates and photo shoots with Charlize. We can’t wait to book her again!”

Rest assured your pet is in safe hands with me, I love to send updates during their stay as well! I work from home, so I will be with your pups practically all day! I love to play and provide engagement during their stay. Because I am home during most of the day, I can keep up with your home-schedule while they are under my care. Pets will not be left unsupervised at any time, they will always be with me or caged for their safety should I step out of the house. Keeping your pet safe during their stay is my priority, they are a key part of your family!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Dulles
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!

I couldn’t recommend Elisabeth more! Our cat is very picky and takes a while to get used to new people. Elisabeth always go above and beyond to help make Sage comfortable and that helps us enjoy our time away more! She always treats Sage to treats, play time, and extra love. She is always on time and someone we can rely on for our trips. She always includes pictures, details of the visit, and lets us know how Sage is doing. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

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!
Ellie was an amazing pet sitter! My cat Max can be a little shy with new people, but he warmed up to Ellie right away-which says everything! I would definitely book with Ellie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving pet sitter.

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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 .

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

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
